Farmers generally have not watched

as corrective of ailments in stock.
The condition of the system may be

A Powder Mans Adventure.

Mr.. Dupont, who was recently re-
moved from the enjoyment of $4,000
600 by an explosion, was probably the
largest manufacturer of explosives in
the world. One of the most daring
achievements recorded in the history
of the present century is one of which
he is the central figure. During the
Crimean war the Russian government
ran short of powder, and the explosive
was required to continue the defense
of SebastOpOl. A cargo was purchased
from the DupOnts in America, and was
placed on a steamship lying off Balti-
more. The British had frigates posted
in waiting outside the Chesapeake.
After several feints the watchers were
eluded, and a chase began across the
Atlantic, through Gibraltar and up the
Mediterranean sea. With remarkable
good fortune the vessel passed through
the Bosphorus sea into the Black sea
unchecked, but when nearing the
place of contention the English war
ship hailed the stranger Young Du-
pont was at the helm himself, and in
sisted that the vessel proceed, not
needing the signals from the war-ship
Two broadsides were fired into the
vessel, but she was able to steam
ahead and steer through the rocks,
and was beached inside the Russian
lines. This daring adventure saved
the cargo, for which the Russian gov
ernment paid the sum of $4,000, ,000.-

The Methodists in the Channel
Islands have just celebrated their one
hundredth anniversary. At the con-
ference in 1884, Mr.. Wesley appointed
Robert Carr Brackenbury to labor in
Jersey, and to him belongs the honor
of introducing Methodism in these
regions. The work soon spread to the
whole archipelago. Mr.. Breckenbury

about seventy local preachers. Jersey

Lumber in the South.

There is no finer poplar in the
country than the yellow poplar lum-
ber of Kentucky. 1t is straight and
free from knots, and you get boards
from two to four feet wide without a
flaw. Great quantities of it are now
being used for building and finishing
lumber, and it is being shipped all
over the north. The Georgian pine
is another kind of lumber which has
lately come into use, and this makes
a rich and beautiful finish. There is II

it brings good prices. 1t is hard as

The Fate of Punched Silver.

"Yes, punched coins are great
nuisance. but they come to grief at
last, said the rotund old messenger
at the assay office in Wall street.
why, we buy them here by the peck
and melt them up into silver bars.
What do we payp Just what the
silver comes to in coin, less per cent.
But we never buy less than 500 worth
of old silver. Many people come here
and expect we are going to give them
Il new piece for some punched dime or
quarter they have. | usually send
them across the street to j. B. Colgate's
bullion office. We get queer assort-
ment of old silver hcre-worn-out
spoons, old family plate, watch-cases,
medals. jewelry refuse from jewelers.,
shops, etc. You see there may be a
good deal of sentiment clinging to a
bar of silver when you think your
grandmother's spoons or the pin you
gave your girl may be melted up in
it,
1t happened that the reporter had a
punched quarter with the hole neatly
filled up with lead, which had been
recently passed off on him, sandwiched
between two other quarters in making
change. Stepping over to Colgate $
Office he was told that the piece was
worth II cents. 1--WE take in such

tossed the bad coin into pile of others
and handed out the II cents. | think

West Indies. They do not mind

Another broker said: This punched
money is a veXation to the public.
You have to sean every piece of money
you receive to make sure you are not
being swindled. Then nothing makes
you so mad as to have some one shove
Il piece of money which you suppose is
all right back at you and say punched,
and look at you as if you were a
counterfeiter or thief. II is ten
times as easy to take such piece as to
get rid of it. You couldn't pass them
on blind man or an ignorant fruit
dealer, and about the only thing you
can do is to put them in the con-
tribution- box or give them to beggars,
and then you feel like a mean fellow.
| tell you punched money is bigger
nuisance than you think. This device
of filling the holes with lead is poor
one. III the lead is scraped bright one
might be deceived in the dark, but
the fraud is easily found out if you
look closely. Other ways of tampering
with coin are to file it or bore into the
edges or sweat it. This last is usually
done to gold coin and is simply shak-
ing il in a bag to get the gold dust that
comes off. There ought to be severel
penalties for tampering with coins Ii
