A machine is in use at Melbourne,

1t is made of brass, something in the
shape of small trowel. The motion
is got up by turbine wheel about
three inches in diameter, and this is
geared into another wheel, on which is
fixed cutter; in front is comb which
serves as guard against cutting the

CHORUS.
Then all hal. to our land
To the true-heartcd band
Whose leader through peril our own still shall be
Long ages In story
Shall crown thee with glory,
oh land of the Pilgrims dear home of the free
Proud land of the Pilgrimsl dear home of the

Away from the kingdom Of splendor and pride,
Where hawthorn blooms cluster, and green ivles
hide,
Unto freedom or death, 10 the gloom lieth far,
But hope shineth ever, like Bethlehems star.
CHORUS.
Oh heroes undaunted, no tyrant shall now
Enchain the thanksgivings glad spirits that bow,
When wild waves b hind them aud dark woods
before
The Maynower rests mid thesnows of the shore.
CHORUS.
Give echo, we forests, and wait troubled sky
Their triumphant anthems to portals on hghi
And sing, happy hearts, of columbia tonight,
OF liberty, law and of loves holy light

Earth's proudest republic, whose first corner

Was Pymouth's stern rock, and the faith of the
Whose memory we crown with the laurel anew !!

Upon what does the success of the
Niquor traffic depend? Upon debased
manhood, wronged womanhood, de-
trauded childhood. 1t holus mort
z aye overy every cradle; a deed writ
ten in hearts blood over every home
a human hell over every human life.
Snail mothers know this, and keep ST.
lie ut? Shall fathers understand and be
in different?
"What can women do?' is no longer
as ked in Dakota. AT Elk Point, a
town of 900 population, last winter
here were four saloons. The w. G. T..
u. numbered twenty. A petition was
formed and circulated, asking the coun-
ty commissioners not to grant any
more licenses. The majority of the
voters signed and the law went into eff
feet the second week in July. Two
saloons went out of the business; the
owner of the third left town during the
session of the grand jury; and the
fourth is under trial by that body.
When the Washington market in
New York city was found years ago to
be in an unsanitary condition, the
health authorities, after exhausting
peaceful measures and plans, set a
corps of one hundred and fifty labor
ers, protected by three hundred police
IN en-, to work by night pulling down
the two-story sheds which constituted
the covering of the market ground.
The proprietors sued for 100000, but
the courts sustained the destruction as
necessary to the public health and de-
clared that if the city hall itself were
detrimental to public health the board
of health might safely tear it down.
The courts further lay down the law
that no man can have property rights
in anything which is Injurious to the
health of the people. Some day such
declarations will include that greatest
of injuries to public veal, the licensed
liquor traffic, and the compensation"
so clamored for by the brewers, distil-
lers and saloonists will be denied upon
the grounds above stated. Speed the
day.

Opium In Cigarettes.

A prominent chemist of Elmira, n
Y, states in the AdcertiSer of that city
that he had lately been led to think that
even the higher grades of cigarettes
contained opium. He therefore collect
ed, by purchase of reputable dealers, a
dozen packages of the most prominent
and high-priced cigarettes to be had,
which he forwarded to Pittsburgh
chemist for analysis. The considera-
BILE quantity of opium in all the stand
ard brands was astounding. The uni
versallv recognized bondage resulting
from the use of opium in any form or
degree, especially by smoking or alb
sorption, renders the murderous de-.
sign of the the admixture and the sharp
lesson TO be learned terribly plain.

An Old Middlebury Breeders Example.

The following is from recent issue
of the Breeders Gazette:
The low price of wool is discourag.
ing to flock masters, whose main OBJ
ject has been wool growing; aud we
hear of many who are disposing OF
valuble and well bred Merino sheen
at ruinous low prices; this, on pub
lie grounds, is to be regretted.
Is it not practicable for the owners OF
these grand flocks to improve their
mutton-producing qualities? This was
the judgment of Edwin Hammond, and
he certainly accomplished much in that
direction. The Atwood sheep were too
high on the leg and generally fiat. sided
We all know what wonderful improve.
ments Mr.. Hammond brought about
in these points; that many of his sheen
had carcasses as round as a roller
while most of them had legs of only
moderate length. While giving due
attention to the fleece, increasing in an
extraordinary degree its length of fibre
he steered clear OF the excessive wrink.
les and enormous folds of loose hide
found on some French Merinos, and
aimed to diminish the amount of yolk
that is SO often found in Merino flocks,
believing that these characteristics in.
dictated inferior quality of flesh as well
as Objectionable Irregularities of fibre
1t is though by many that Ilammond's
successors in breeding this great race
of sheep have not adhered to his prac
tice in these points, which appear JUS
at this time to be of so much import
ance, when flock masters find the,
must give attention to mutton as wei
as the wool.

Cigarettes.

While the boys are smoking cigar
stumps or cigarettes "because it makes
them look like men," it would be well
for them or their parents to remem Der
that it is no longer question whether
tobacco is pernicious to them. Because
this has been settled; the German gov
eminent has ordered the police to put a
stop to it in that country, as far as pos
sible, by arresting all boys found smok-
ing or chewing, on the ground that the
habit breaks down the constitution so
as to unfit them for the army. At
West Point military school, the super
intendent, Gen. 90. Howard, has also
forbidden its use to the cadets for the
same reason.

sheep of Colorado will be doubled in
the next three years. Not that the
number will be greatly increased, but
that the size and quality of the animals
