An experiment has been made with the tel
ephone which amply demonstrates that this
useful instrument may be used for long dis
lance communication as well as for short dis
tances. Two wires Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Telegraph company, between Cincin-
natl and Baltimore were united at the Balti-
more end, and an instrument placed in each
of two offices in the same building in Cincin-
natl. Then a conversation was held by two
persons, one at each instrument over the
twelve hundred miles of wire, and low-spoken
sentences were heard as distinctly as If the
speakers were talking over wire from one
part of city to another. 1t would have
been easier, perhaps, for the man downstairs
to have sought face to face interview with
the man upstairs, but this experiment demon
strated the possibility of using the telephone
over indefinite distances. The importance OF
establishing telephone lines between the great
business centres cannot be overestimated

IMPATIENT PEOPLE.

Impatient people water their miseries and
hoe up their comforts sorrows are visitors
that come without invitation, but complaining
minds send wagon to bring their troubles
home in. Many people are born crying, live
complaining and die disappointed; they chew
the bitter pill which they would not even
know to be bitter if they had the sense to
swallow it whole in cup of patience and
water They think every other mans burden
to be light, and their own feathers to be as
heavy as lead; they are hardly done by in
their own opinion no ones toes are so often
trodden on by the black OK as theirs; the
snow falls thickest around their door. and the
hail rattles hardest on their windows; and
yet if the truth were known, it is their fancy
rather than their fate which makes things 90
SO hard with them. Many would be well off
if they could but think so. A little sprig of
the herb called content put into the poorest
soup will make it taste as rich as the Lord
Mayors turtle. John Ploughman grows the
plant in his garden, but the late hard winter
nipped it terribly SO that he cannot afford to
give his neighbors slip of it; they had bet
ter follow Matthew g. 6, and go to those who
sell and buy for themselves. Grace is good
soil to grow it in, but it wants watering from
the fountain of mercy.-C. II. Spurgeon.

possession, we learn that of all the states in
the union Kansas is the one most visited by
the peculiar and terrible class of storms
known as tornado, having been visited with
sixty-two out of SAG recorded since 1859
Out of 1876 tornadoes reported as unusually
destructive, Kansas was visited by twenty
five.
New Jersey is favored in this respect, as
out of 900 tornadoes reported since 1894,
only six have fallen to her share.

| YE LOCAL sailed forth on Tuesday after
noon, thinking to find employment in the har-
vest field as binder, but sought in vain for
job, as in each field visited the Irvine bind
er was getting in its work with good effect.
Thus are the horny handed sons of toll thrust
aside by machinery and compelled to resort
to the pen for livelihood We were offered
job on our arrival home by friend to
whom we entered our complaint, but the fit
had left us.
Asa K Pedrick, having already harvested
the wheat crops of two of his neighbors with
his Champion binder, was just commencing
operations on his own 81 acres of fine grain
in good condition, and in neighboring field
we found Borough Clerk Weatherby superin-
tending the operations of the Wood binder
which fred the sheaves out right merrily as it
went its rounds.
We could moralize for an hour on the diff
ference between harvest time nowadays and
thirty years ago, but it is too hot. Well see
you later.

Many postal cards fail to reach their desti.
nation because of the carelessness of the
writer in not observing the post Office regula-
tons. In the first place, no printed matter,
except an address, must be pasted on either
side; neither is it allowable to ''run over" the
writing from the message side to the mailing
side. No writing whatever, except the adj
Dress is allowable on this latter side.
Another source of annoyance to the post office
authorities is the number of postal cards that
are returned to be sent to other addresses.
These are invariably thrown away. unless
they have two cent stamp attached Dur
