A clock at Brussels has been going
for eight months and has not required
to be wound up since it was first set
going. In fact, the sun does the
winding of this timepiece. A shaft
exposed to the sun causes an up
draught of air, which sets a fan in
motion. The fan actuates mechanism
which raises the weight of the clock
until it reaches the top, and then puts
a brake on the fan until the weight
has gone down little, when the fan
is again liberated and proceeds to act
as before.

The riding habit of 1881 is shade
longer than walking skirt, but only Il
shade. and it is very narrow. AL the
material saved by this seems to be in
the collar, which is very high.
A neat device to make skirt heavy
is the plan of tucking the hounces be-
fore boX-plaiting them. This gives
more thickness of the material and
consequently nine times the weight
really needed.
A handsome dress of black Bengal
inc silk is draped with Chantilly lace
and finished with fiat side draperies of
black net jetted with pendant spikes.
The long train of the dress is stylishly
square at one corner and round at the
other. Rich trimmings of Chantilly
complete the toilet.

PERSONAL,

We clip the following notice Of one
of Allen county's wanderers from the
Dennison (OhiO) Paragraph:
Mr.. Samuel Cole. who has been Wis
iting his brother Robert Cole, Of this
place, left for the west last Tuesday
night. He had very pleasant visit
among old and new acquaintances in
Dennison and Uhrichsville. His adj
dress at the Sunday-school in the
Railway Chapel last Sabbath after
noon was very interesting and in
structive and was listened to with close
attention by old and young. He relat-
ed many little incidents connected
with the organization of this Sunday
school, of which he was the first super
intendent, and said he was thankful it
had been so greatly pr0spered
and had accomplished so much good.
Mr.. Cole is now q prominent farmer
and stock dealer in the Usage Valley,
Kansas, and we are glad to know that
he is still interested and active in ev-
cry good work. His many friends here
wish him continued prosperity and
hope he may visit us some time again.

ing by it would be those who have
settled on the land that has never
been sold. Those who are squatting
on, land that has BEEN sold by the rail-
roads to innocent purchasers, would
reap no benefit whatever. Then, too,
their chances Of gaining their suit are
daily growing less. No sensible, un-
prejudiced man will maintain that
they have more than the ghost OF q
show. Indeed 1t has been openly
talked this week that their most prom
inent attorney is about to throw up
the case. Taking all things into con-
sideration then, the days Of the 8. T. A.
seem numbered and we would advise
the members of it to make the best
terms they can with the owners of the
land they are on, and give their time
to making homes for themselves where
they need fear no mans molestation.
If this question had never been raised,
every man of them could have had his
land paid for and his title unquestion-
ed. But better late than never. They
will have to buy that land sometime
or else get off of it. and the longer they
put it off the more it will cost them.
We are aware that our advice has
hardly been up to par with the leaguers
for some time past, but we are willing
to give it now and let time prove Its
soundness.

Let rs have Grass.

Editors Register IL want you to
help me to coax the farmers OF Al
len county to turn their attention more
than they are doing now to growing
tame grasses. The time has come for
farmers to think and act OH this grass
question, especially in this part of the
county. Brother Clodhoppers, there
is no need of doubling the growing of
tame grasses, it will do well anywhere
that corn and oats does well. / used
to think it was doubtful Of paying, but
[ am trying it and having good sue
cess. Sow few acres this spring after
you sow your flax, right on top of the
flax. like timothy straight for horse
hay, timothy and clover for cattle and
hogs, the more clover the better for
hogs. Yes, buy J. l, or bushels of
blue grass seed and go right on the sod
In your native grass pasture where it
is partially eat out and pop it down
on the sod. I will assure you some of
it will grow. Don't expect it to grow
three feet high and as thick as the hair
on dogs back the first year, for it
won't do any thing of the kind. But
you will get start, and once set you
need lose no sleepabout the dryweather
killing it out. When 1 was a boy 40
years ago, farmers said in Illinois, so
miles north of st. Louis, NO.. that it
was no use to try to grow blue grass
there for it would never de any good.
Just let man pass through Madison,
Macoupin, Jersey, and Green counties,
in Illinois, and hear what he will say
about it being failure. ] have seen
it knee high December LIST, and all
kinds of stock were fat and would keep
so all winter, if the snow did not cover
it up, without any grain. And we can
have the same thing in Kansas if
farmers will take hold in earnest. If
you lose your seed and labor the first
year try the second year; you will
succeed after awhile, don't fear. This
idea of us depending entirely on prai-
RE hay won't do, for some morning we
will wake up and find out that We are
left, if not entirely that we are behind
our more enterprising brothers.

The wedding, which was quiet one, took
place at the residence of the officiating clergy
man, Rev. WIN. Hankins, on Thursday of last
week.
On tuesday night OF last week our people
were abruptly torn from the embrace Of re-
freshing slumber by an outbreak of discordant
music, such as can only be produced by band
of twenty five or thirty persons who are bent
on having an enthusiastic "charivaree''. This
voluptuOus swell was intended to disturb the
nocturnal quietus Of j. +. Arnold and wife, but
as the night was clear and still. neighbors FOR
many miles around shared the treat.
Mr.. Miller, man travelling for the interest
of some foreign dry goods establishment, made
several wholesale disposals of goods among our

Usage Notes.

Hurrah fer Funston
The political cyclone is over at last, and now
I suppose all will be peace and quiet until the
presidential campaign. Now il there is as
much racket in proportion to the size of the
presidential election as there has been between
Funston and Riggs am afraid Kansas will be
turned up side down. The speakers had be tier
stear clear Of Mr.. Lanyon, the zinc man, on
the tariff question. Well 1 can sympathize
with Sammy R., for I am in the same boat,
was left on the trustee question In Usage, but
am going up Salt river after while and
Sammy r. can go along representing up that
way, for the voters were as hard on him In
Usage as they were on me. Tho way of the
politician is hard and we can't all get there.
l am sorry for one man, and that is Cap Jones.
Cap. wanted Riggs elected very bad and seemed
to think that Riggs had a walk of and SO he
haSkor has. Now he can walk of at his leisure
ed not fret the cattle nor driver.
Farms In Usage and Marmaton township,
Allen county, and Franklin township, Bourbon
county, are changing hands pretty lively at $40
to S25 per acre. Lots of eastern buyers are
coming in and buying right along, and as to
renters they have been averaging about three
spring. Men tell me they can't find houses Ell
Their in town or in the country. These are
booming times for the farmer and laborer/ Men
and at good wages. Just stop and think for
few minutes. Pork ranging from to &c, beef
about the same. Mich COWS from $50 to $50 |;
yearling steers Sis to s25, and stock hogs, well
any price that man will ask from to IL cents
per:pound. Also horses and mules are as high
as any other stock, and sometimes think q good
deal higher and certainly as good as hard mon
ey, yes little tier. Why, a man can buy o
good suit Of clothes for all the way from SO
to SIS, and all other dry goods in proportion.
These arc fine times for the laborer you bet.
