WHEAT AND FLOUR.
Chicago News

Spring wheat is now selling at say
80 cents per bushel, while patent
flour sells at Sc per barrel. A per-
son who deals in both articles SAYS
it takes four bushels of wheat to
make barrel Of -four, while the
otfal pays for the milling. This
would make barrel of spring wheat
flour now selling at Sc cost to the
maker but $3.50. This question is, to
whom does this profit of s2.40 per
barrel go? 1t can scarcely be to the
owners OF the patent process, as that
is a foreign invention which has
been quite a length of time in use
in Hungary before it was brought
to the United States. Another
anomalous feature of our -four
manufactures is that much of the
flour made in mills in Minneapolis
is sold cheaper in England than in
the United States, on the same prin-
ciple that. the copper mined on Lake
Superior is sold cheaper in Liver
pool than in New York, to the great
detrlment of the United States man
utacturers of copper utensils.

W. f. Hightower, said to him that if

Il present of a fine horse when he
reached his majority. Robert accept
ed the offer, and well did he keep his
promise. He was twenty-one in
April, and he said to his father Fri
day morning that he would take a
good buggy in the place of the horse,
and his father said, $50 into my car
riage repository and select the best
buggy you can find" So Robert now
has a splendid new buggy as a reward
for his worthy example. The Captain
made the same proposition to his son
Capers, and he is now eighteen years

VAGARIES OF THE INSANE.
Morristown Jersevman.

A lunatic at the Morris plains asy-
lum was a mute for five years. Even
the physicians thought he had lost
the power of speech. One day he
caught two of his fingers in a wash
ing machine, and they were horribly
mangled. The astonishmeut of
everybody who heard him, he exclaim-
ed 'By the great and jumping Moses,
devil is better than an inventor. "
That was three years ago, and he has
not spoken since. Another patient,
boy in the same institution, is a
lightning calculator. The most in
tricate problems are solved by him in
fractions of a minute The boy be-
lieves that his head is filled with lit
tie blocks with figures upon them,
and that they instantly fall into diff
ferent positions and work out the
problems. He thinks his brain in
fact, is multiplication table. His
insanity seems pardonable, for only
few sane men can compete with
him as mathematician. Every day
he soaks his head in water to prevent
the blocks from rafting, and occa.
sionally he begs for oil to put into
his ears SO that the imaginary squares
will slip upon each other more east
ly.

After fourteen years of labor by
the translators, the revised Old Tes-
lament has been completed and the
first copy, separated into five gor-
geous volumes, presented to Queen
Victoria. The changes are few in
deed. The Hebrew word "sheol' is
substituted for HELL" throughout.
But this by no means destroys the
significance of that word as employed
by the New Testament writer's to de-
note the place of eternal punishment
for the wicked.
