Henry Clay's Fortune.

Ben: Perley Poore says in his remi-
niscences: "Henry Clay was pronounc-
ed insolvent by his Kentucky opponents
in 1912, and they paraded some mort
cages on his property as evidences OF
bis inability to pay his debts. In q let
ter to friend during this calumny, Mr..
Clay said: i am not free, absolutely,
from debt. I am not rich. I never
coveted riches. But my estate would.
even now, be estimated at not much
less than 100000. Whatever it may
be, it is gratifying to know that it is
the product of my own honest labor, no
part of it being hereditary except one
slave who would oblige me very much
If he would accept his freedom. 1t is
sufficient, after paying all my debts, to
leave my family above want if I should
be separated from them. 1t is a matter
also of consolation to me to know that
this wanton exposure of my private af-
fairs can do me no pecuniary prejudice.
My few creditors will not allow their
confidence in me to be shaken by it. It
has, indeed, led to one incident, which
was at the same time a source of pleas
ure and of pain. A friend lately called
on me, at the instance Of other friends,
and informed me that they were ap-
prehensive that my private affairs were
embarrassed, and that allowed these
embarrassments to prey upon my mind.
He came therefore with their authority
to tell me that they would contribute
my sum that I might want to relieve
me. The emotions which such prop
osition excited can be conceived by
honorable men. I felt most happy to
be able to undeceive them and to de-
cline their benevolent proposition >"

The Significance Of Rings.

It Is understood that gentleman
who desires to marry wears plain or
chased gold ring upon the first finger
of the left or heart hand. When he be-
comes engaged the ring passes to
the second finger. After marriage it
passes to the third finger. If, however,
the gentleman desires his lady friends
to clearly understand that he is not sin
the Market" and does not wish to
marry at all, he wears the signet upon
his little finger. This will inform all
ladies that he is beyond reach. With
the ladies plain or chased gold ring
on the little finger of the left hand indi-
Gates mot engaged" or ready for an
offer. When engaged the ring passes
to the third finger of the right hand.
When married the third finger of the
left hand receives the ring. When a
young lady desires to defy all suitors
she places rings-one on the first and
one on the fourth finger. A writer on
the subject of rings says: Though the
ring of gold has long been looked upon
as necessity in the marriage ceremo-
ny, it is by no means indispensable, and
civil marriages may be celebrated with
out it. The Puritans abolished the
ring, or, rather, tried to do so; they
looked upon its use as superstitious and
of heather origin. Quakers gener-
ally object to the ring on account o.
its heather origin, but the ladies of that
persuasion have shown decided pre-
ference for its continuance on account
of the invidious position in which q
married lady might be placed for want
of it: Wedding rings are placed ON
the left hand to typify obedience. The
converse is probably the reason why
the engaged band Is placed on the
third right-hand finger of a 1fance, who
still possesses a large amount of free
dom, and frequently exercises her pow
er in an arbitrary manner. "-Brookly's
Morris tribune., 1884-12-17
Oysters.

The oyster industry is rapidly pass
ing from the hands of the fishermen
into those of oyster culturists. The
oyster being sedentary, except for
few days in the earliest stages of its
existence, is easily exterminated in
any given locality, since, although it
may not be possible for the fishermen
to rake up from the bottom every in
dividual, wholesale methods of cap
ture soon result in covering up or
otherwise destroying the oyster banks
or reefs, as the communities of oysters
are technically termed. The main
difference between the oyster industry
of America and that of Europe lies in
the fact that in Europe the native
beds have long since been practically
destroyed, perhaps not more than or
I per cent of the oysters of Europe
passing from the native beds directly
into the hands of the consumer. 1t
is probable that from go to IS per cent
are reared from the seed in artificial
parks, the remainder having been laid
down for time to increase in size
and favor in the shoal waters along
the coasts.
In the United States, on the other
hand, from 80 to 40 per cent of all the
oysters consumed are carried from the
native beds directly to market. The
oyster fishery is everywhere carried
on in the most reckless manner, and
in all directions oyster grounds are
becoming deteriorated, and in some
cases have been entirely destroyed.
1t remains to be seen whether the
governments of the States will regu-
late the oyster fisheries before it is too
late, or will permit the destruction of
those vast reservoirs of food. At
present the oyster is one of the cheap
est articles of diet in the United States
while in England as has been we'll said
an oyster is usually worth as mnch as
or more, than new laid egg. 1t can
hardly be expected that the price of
American oysters will always remain
so low as at present: but taking into
consideration the great wealth of the
natural beds along the entire Allan
tic coast, it seems probable that a
moderate amount of protection will
keep the price of seed oysters far be-
low the present European rates, and
that the immense stretches of sub
merged land along our coasts especial
ly suited for oyster planting may be
utilized and may be made to procure
an abundant harvest at a much less
cost than that which accompanies the
complicated system of culture to
France and Ho1land.-G. Brown

Animals rs BarOmeters.

Every farmer knows when swallows
fly low that rain is coming; sailors.
when the sea gulls fly toward the land
when the stormy petrol appears, or
Mother Carey's chickens, as they are
called, predict foul weather.
Take the ants: have you never
noticed the activity they display be-
fore storm-hurry, scurry, rushing
hither and yon, as if they were letter
carriers making six trips a day, or
expressmen behind time? Dogs grow
sleepy and dull, and like to lie before
fire as rain approaches; chickens
pick up pebbles, fowls roll in the dust,
flies sting and bite more viciously.
frogs croak more clamorously, gnats
assemble under trees and horses dis
play restlessness.
When you see swan flying against
the wind, spiders crowding on a wall,
toads coming out of their holes in UNI
usual numbers Of an evening, worms,
slugs, and snails appearing. robin red
breasts pecking at our windows,
pigeons coming to the dovecote earli-
er than usual, peacocks squalling at
night, mice squeaking, or geese wash
ing you can put them down as rain
signs. Nearly all the animals have
some way of feeling the weather in adj
vance. 1t may be that the altered
condition of the atmosphere with re-
gard to electricity, which generally
accompanies changes of weather,
makes them feel disagreeable or pleas
ant. The fact that the cat ticks her.
self before a storm Is urged by some
naturalists as proof of the special in
fuence of electricity. Man is not so
sensitive. Yet many people feel list
less before a storm, to say nothing of
aggravated headaches, toothaches,
rheumatic pains, and last, but not
least, corns.-Co correspondence in Gin

To Be Un-American LIS lntoleraole'

A well-known writer has said that he
should send his boy to the West to be
educated, where life was very lively,
vcrv American, says the Boston Globe.
It is indeed noticeable that Western
life is very lively. In fact, the distin-
r,,;shino feature of Western life is its
spontaneity. w.a.ou,,
without finding an account OF some
snrichtly affair closing in this way: If
the Villain is caught he will surely be
lynched. Ill.,. =, =, !.
article ending thus: The whole coun.
tr t. us is aroused, and the murderer can
hardly fail to meet the fate OF his I'M
fortunate victim"
Ono reads often of the lively little
parties of which the finale is: 1.-THE
wretch was hung to convenient tree
and his carcass was riddled with bull,
let's" -
A feature of this very American
Western life, as one gathers from the
enterprising local journals, is the az
| fairs where .'the citizens brook no op-
position, and it is doubtful if the walls
of the Jail are able to preserve this
| fiend in human form from a violent
| death"
Yes the West is the only place for
