his wife and two children at Branch's Sta

other Is baby about two months old. II
is fretful, and cries great deal. A few
days agoit was more than usually cross.
It's mother had been trying in vain to quiet
it for long time. At length the little girl,
Nettie, said:
"What sail we do wiz baby, mamma, II
he don't stop his tryin'p
"We'll have TO sew his mouth up, l
guess, Nettie," the mother thoughtlessly
replied.
The next day, while the baby was sleep
ing in its cradle, Mrs. Dunlap ran to a
neighbours on an errand, leaving Nettie
playing ON the floor. She was detained
longer than she expected to be, and while
hurrying back home and on entering the
yard she heard her baby shrieklng as
though in great pain. She ran into the
house and found Nettie standing by the
side Of the cradle, and bending over the
baby. When Nettie heard her mother on.
ter she rose up. Blood was running from
the baby's mouth. Nettie held in her
hand darning needle containing a short
piece Of yarn which Mrs. Dunlap left
sticking In cushion on the table. Mrs.
Dunlap took the screaming baby quickly
from the table.

She had run the needle nearly through

Transfer Of Fine Beef Cattle.

DIR. II. s. Wood sold TO Col. G. u.
Alexander Saturday, 10 head Of beef
cattle which were, taken as u
lot, probably the finest and best ever
sold in the county. The 10 weighed
22,430 pounds, an average of l,495Il
pounds. The largest aud best one
weighed 1865 pounds and another al
most as good tipped the scales at 1896.
They were nearly all of DR.. Wood
own breeding, and were Durham
Shorthorns, They were in the best
of order, and we only regret that
some of them could not have been
butchercd here. Most of the lot were
sold at the handsome price of 81
cents and several of them brought
nearly 500 each. Col. Alexander
will ship them to Louisville in u few
days. DR.. Wood is an extensive
stock raiser and dealer aud takes
much pride in breeding fine stock.
These steers were principally three
year-olds, aud we don't believe they
can be beaten anywhere.

News reached us last week that the
report was in circulation that we
were going to sell out and leave town
To our patrons and the public gener-
ally throughout Christian county,
we wish to state that such report is
false to the core, and is gotten up for
no other purpose than to try to injure
us. We are too well. known in this
community for thing of this kind to
have the slightest weight against us,
but we simply take this method OF
denonncing this as untrue. We came
here to stay and here we will stay,
false reports to the contrary notwith'

Earth TreInors

Earth tremors produced by artlfi-
cial disturbances, such as the pass
ing of carriages or trains, the move
ments of machinery or bodies of
people, are at our disposal for daily
observation. At Greenwich Observ-
atory the tremulous motion in the
soil, especially noticeable on bank
holidays and at all times when
Greenwich Park was unusually
crowded, resulted in the construc-
ton of an apparatus in which the
dish of mercury used in the determ-
ination of the collimation error of
the transit circle was suspended by
flaccid springs. By means of this
contrivance the tremulous motions
of the ground were absorbed before
they reached the mercury, and the
difficulty of observation was over
come. French engineers, working
with delicate surveying instruments
in crowded cities, have similarly
been compelled to suspend portion
of their apparatus, so that steady
image could be obtained. Professor
IL. M. Paul, seeking for site for the
Naval Observatory at Washington.
found that the image of a star re-
flected from tray of mercury was
disturbed by a train passing at the
distance of mile. Lieutenant-Col-
onel Palmer, when engaged in OBJ
serving the transit of Venus in New
Zealand, discovered that a ditch
few feet in depth was sufficient to in
trench his instruments against the
disturbance created by trains pass
ing at distance of seven hundred
yards. Captain Denman found the
effect of a goods train TO be transmit
ted | 100 feet over marshy ground,
but vertically above the train, pass
ing through a tunnel in sandstone,
the disturbance extended only 100
feet. One result obtained from
these and numerous other observa-
tions upon artifcially produced tre-
mors indicates that these Gisturban-
ces are superficial, and although
they may creep up the surface of a
gently sloping hill. their spread is
checked by a steep cutting.-Ndtlre.

The growth of the wool industry
in Australia is exceedingly interest
ing. The industry was first planted
In 1896, when a ram and five ewes
Of the merino breed were sent there.
Ten years later three rams and three
ewes were sent out. Four years
after this the first bale of wool was
exported; it weighed 167 pounds.
That was in 1910; in 1910 and for
some years before, millions ofsheep
were boiled down for the tallew,
and tallow and wool were the only
agricultural exposts. But a thriving
nome manufacture of weolen goods
had been established, and most ex-
cellent blankets and clothing goods
were produced. In spite OF several
disastrous epizootics among the
sheep the hoeks have increased in
number and value, and now amount
to nearly 100000, almost wholly
of merinO blood, with an annual ex-
port of 330,000,000 peunds of wool.
The cost of a pound of wool is 13
cents. The lesson for us from all
this is that We have an equally val
liable and extensive territory in cur
western country for wool growing as
there is in Australia, and could easi-
ly compete with that country if we
were as persevering and persistent
But the American passion for
change prevents it, and after a few
years playing at sheep keeping,
cattle herdiEg is taken up, or whea,
farming, or mineral prospecting,
and the fiocks are scattered because
they have no shepherd.

Game Laws for Boys

The following conversation from
Maurice Thomson's new serial,
Marvin and his Boy Hunters" in
the May 81. Nicholas, gives a lucid
explanation of the necessity for laws
for the protection of game:
Why is it against the law 10
shoot larks and robins ?" said Hugh.
" Don't see why it's any worse 10
kill them than it is to kill
quails" "
Why is it worse to kill a horse
than it is to kill pig?" inquired
Uncle Charley.
Because a pigs good to eat
ana horse isn't" quickly answered
Hugh.
Isn't there a better reason ,"
said Uncle Charley; isn't a horse
more useful to us as a servant than
it is for food, even if its flesh were
delicious ?"
Certainly" said Hugh.
Well, meadow lark is a very
useful bird to the farmer. It eats
great numbers OF insects, eggs and
Larvae that would work great harm to
wheat. corn and orchards then its
flesh is not very good, while a quail
eats grain, and its flesh is excellent
food. Do you see the difference ?"
That does seem reasonable"
said Hugh " hadn't thought of it
in that way. 4 meadow lark is like
herse it helps the farmer make
his crop by destroying bugs and
things, aud the quail is like a pig
it eats corn and wheat and gets fat,
to be killed and eaten"
Uncle Charley laughed.
l see you apply a theory in
very practical sort Of way" be re-
marked. But the law protects all
kinds of harmless birds. the flesh Of
which is not profitable for food" he
continued, out Of the fear of the in
fluence thatt the mere wanton slaugh-
ter Of birds would have upon the
morals of the people fla boy is al
lowed to be cruel as he grows up, he
is likely to develop into a dangerous
man. There is great difference
between a moderate indulgence in
field sports, and the abandonment of
ones self to the brutal and indis-
criminate slaughter of birds and
animals
