Introduction of the BOca Conn
pany's New Beer.

The perfection Of the Brewers art has
been reached in the production Of the
"Pilsener Beer"-it is OF the most beauti-
full amber color. as clear as crystal; little
beads rise through the liquid as il it were
champagne, and its foam is like whipped
cream. Upon emptying glass, its ap-
pearance is fully borne out by its taste. It
is delicate. with smart smack of hops and
malt, and leaves lingering flavor on the
tongue. One of its best qualities is Its
lightness, causing no headache, even il
used to excess. 1t is fully equal to, If not
superior. t0.any Of the Eastern or foreign
brands in the market. 1t is highly re-
commended for family use, and all orders
will be promptly executed by

Runaway,

Yesterday a horse trader named
James Riley got on horse to show
him off, when the animal began rear
Ing and kicking and ran away. Ron
ming into milk-wagon, the horse
threw Mr.. Riley violently out of the
saddle. In the fall his head came into
contact with the head of the horse in
the wagon, and he fell to the ground
where he lay insensible for u time.
He was taken into store where his
wounds, which We're on the head and
face, were dressed. He is not seriously
hurt unless there are internal injuries.
This has not been ascertained. The
horse, after throwing Mr.. Riley, took
to the pavement and ran along it for
some distance before again taking tc
the street. 1t was stopped and brought
back.

The Whims OF Sailors.

A man who had been much among sail
ors was talking with a tribune reporter
recently regarding the characteristics OF
the toiiers of the sea. Few writers, .
said he, s.have understood the character
of sailors thoroughly. I think in sone of
the best sea-stories that have been writ
ten the sailor IS looked at from the quar-
ter-deck. One peculiar thing about sail
ors is their generosity. As long as a sail
or is well his shipmates will share every
thing with him; will go through fire and
water for him and risk their lives freely
in his behalf if need be, But LET a sailor
fall sick and their devotion is apt to grow
cold. IL a sailor falls overheard there is
no end to the heroic efforts which they
will make to save him. But If he IS
drowned they divide his personal effects
with cheerful a~lacrity if they are allowed
to do SO. ! haze known many cases in
sailors boardfng-houses, where d sailor
has been sick and in need Of assistance,
and 1t was found almost impossible 10
raise any considerable amount by sub
seription among his comrades. If he had
been well they would have given him
their last penny. Still I think sailors
often think lovingly and regretfully of
their dead shipmates. They are a strange
mixture Of good and bad and their char
acters arc SO complex that few, n~otsailora
themselves, have ever been able to under
stand them.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD
Hints Go Pork Makers.

In the Farmers RetieD I. ID. Coburn
offers the following hints: "While it
has been demonstrated that under favor
able circumstances twenty pounds of live
hog can be made from fifty-six pounds OF
shelled corn, it has been even more
thoroughly demonstrated that tens OF
thousands of men every year feed mil
lions of bushels of corn TO hogs that
never return one-fourth that quantity,
rhile a good round per cent. of them
,iall even short of that. A hog to fatten
or even grow rightly must not be cod,
and especially not cold and wet too, as
he is sur to be if much exposed III in
clement weather; hence he should have
quarters where most of his time, when
not eating, will be passed in healthful
sleep, warm and undisturbed. This can
not be had in a leaky sty or On a manure
heap" In referring to the plan of keep
ing corr or food ali the time before them
he says: .surely in this way their ap-
petite and relish for it cannot be SO good
as when only as much is given as they
will clean up; then, next time they come
with ~alacrify to what should be to them
an enjoyable feast. This by no means
signifies that they should be allowed to
become squealing, screaming hungry.
The more they cat the faster they arc
likely to lay on flesh and fat, and they
will eat most when fed a reasonable
quantity and at regular intervals. To
keep them full without being at any time
eloyed is the happy medium to seek"
The Opelousas courier., 1884-06-07
Farmers and Patents.

Henry NJ. Smith, in his address or
"Farmers and Patents" says "The
number of patents granted annually is
Il 5000 to 16, 900, and nearly half as
many more were rejected last year. Since
the adoption of the plan of examination,
the number of reflections has been about
one-third of the whole number of appli-
cations. This wedding out gives a value
to the American patent which no patent
issued on any other system can possess.
It is this assured value of novelty that
gives the American patent system its
strength, and its value to the inventor,
and hence to the public. The whole
public is interested in the growth of
material resources. and must be directly
interested that the inventor shall be
stimulated by a hope of reward, and that
his expectancy be SO well assured that it
can be parted with and assigned to some
n who can furnish the means to carry
the invention to success.
"Tenfold more inventive skill is now
called for than could have possibly found
employment in a simpler age. Discov-
cry is being pushed in directions only
now for the first time possible. It is
found in the history of inventions that
inventions come in separate eras. The
era of agricultural machinery is not old.
1t begins first with any solid meaning in
1850, yet what has it wrought! To-day
the farmer can more easily feed 100 men
than his grandfather could, with the old
farm appliances, feed his household. 1t
is shown by the recent census that we
have $500, 000-agricultural iaborers in a
total of about II, 500. goo workers of all
CLASSES, vet we export 1888, 600, 900 worth
of breaastuffs, or more than three times
the amount of export per agricultural
iaborers ten years before. Agricultural
machinery has been supplemented in adj
vantages to the farmers of a multitude
of points in the patent list.
ave need new inventions to meet a
multitude of demands for the commonest
processes and utilities. Il is not the time
to say now we have enough. When the
steam engine itself, after one hundred
years, Is still so far short of perfection
that it ntilizes only a small amount of the
power residing in IFS fuel, we need new
moters, and we shall get them; new met
ais and new methods Of manufacture in
the oldest metals. n-H55Haad Industrial

FOR FEMININE READERS.
The EolEe OF Nc " YORK.

There have been many charming girls
in New York society of recent years, says
a letter from the metropolis, and a mum
Der who have been considered beauties in
| their particular sets, but until recently no
one has been the acknowledged queen OF
unmarried women through the length and
breadth of New York society. Miss Mar
ion Langdon is now known as the most
beautiful girl in New York. She is tall.
her figure is exquisitely nodded and her
| eyes are superb. She is quite dark n
extremely graceful. Whenever Miss Lang
don consents to dance with the leader OF
| a German the struggle for invitations IS
breathless and prolonged. Miss Langdon
has been engaged several times, but in
every instance the engagement has been
broken off quietly and nothing more
heard of it. Last summer her engage
ment to Perry Belmont was officially an
nounced, and the marriage was to have
taken place this spring at Newport, but
for some reason which has never come
| out the affair was broken off. Everybody
saws that Mr.. Belmont didn't do it and
that the rupture was entirely due to Miss
Langdon's caprice. She certainly dis
missed a most desirable sutton. for Mr..
Belmont is one of the most eligible bach
elors in America.
1t is said that a young Englishman,
who will have a title when his father dies,
and who spent last summer in Newport,
did much toward encouraging Miss Lang
don to change her mind about her mar
rage with Mr.. Belmont.

Color ID eafness.

/ sometimes think there is a disease of

that persons afflicted with this infrmity
are unable to recognize all the values Of
the vowels and eonsonants of spoken

81 notice. said a gentleman from
Boston, addressing an Arkansas man,
"that the people in this country show a
great respect for culture, although they
make no p~retensions to learning. That
poor fellow standing over there, in a
conversation with me just now, addressed
me as sir. We have long since discarded
this mark of respect in the East, but I
must confess that I admire the custom.
Now watch hat fellow. How long
have you lived in this country2'
"About twenty-five years, sar, . replied
the respectful fellow.
"Do you like it down here2''
Eyes, very well, sar.n
Don't you see!n said the Boston gen.
tleman, turning again to the Arkansas
man.
/. just then the respectful fellows dog
jumped over a fence and started after .
