A ludcrous incident occurred at a rabbit
hunt near ii bhUku, n. j., recently.
The hound started the cotton tail" in a
piece Of short brush on side hill The
hunter could witness the race at a great
distance, and soon saw the rabbit making a
circle. As he appeared emerging from the
brush he was seen to stop suddenly. On
rushed the hound, and as he lowered his
head to seize the little animal the rabbit
gave a spring to one side AMI the dog
doubled up like a ball While he was letting
himself out the rabbit was making time on
hIe back track.
The hound was soon in full pursuit again
nut the rabbit led the dog 70 where two sap
olings grew close together from an old root
He then stopped as before AMI waited until
the dog was almost upon him, when ne
leaped between the two sapplings, while the
log attempted to follow. But there wa.
barely room for the rabbit, and the hound
was caught in the crotch and badly injured
The rabbit turned and looked at his enemy
4 minute and was soon 10 I in the thicket
The dog started immediately for home, and
no amount of coaxing could induce him to
continue the hunt

very good ones very soon.
What makes you so confident" querisd
the reporter.
why" quOth the undertaken. "the rich
men die in winter. and poor men in sum-
mer. A. winter is coming on, it follows
naturally that we will have the remains OF
people belonging to rich families TO bury
When l say that the rich die il winter and
the poor in summer, | am prepared to give
my reasons for that assertion In the sum
mer time rich men aS a rule take it easy.
They keep in the shade. and spend their
time at summer resorts. where they get
plenty OF fresh air. Poor people, on the
other hand, remain at home. They work
in the sun, live in the Easements and hot
rooms, and enervate themselves until they
take sick and die. 1t is a well-known fact
that the mortality among children is greater
during the the summer months than at any
other season Of the year. Men who work
on high walls, as brick mASons, men who
clean the streets, and teamsters, as well as
others who are exposed TO the hot rays OF a

who are compelled to work the year round
for their daily bread.
Rich men die in the winter because they
are subject to dangers they take no precau-
tions to avoid Poor men suffer from ex-
posure, yet their very hardships fit them
for the sudden changes Of the weather,
which are almO,t constantly occurring.
Rich people. wearing furs and' heavy over

ventilated theatres When they come out
they catch their death Of cold. Rich peo-
pie indulge in greater eXcesses in winter
than in summer. Tney attend more ball.

than in warm weather. There are many
other reasons for the fact stated to you, but
it is hardly worth while TO enumerate them
here. Suffice it TO say that the undertakers

The American King.

Corn is the American king-and the only
king. Wheat, cotton. iron and oil have
places in its cabinet, ii must be admitted.
but corn Is the only American putentate that
is peculiarly, physically and typically Amer
lean; for whose throne no foreign country
has any rivals, and whose sway on this
continent and in other continents is undis-
pUted and supreme.
II is the American crop, above all others,
for it can be cultivated, successfully. north.
east, south and west. Even in New Eng
land, and certainly in New York. the little
eight-rcwed variety of yellow flint, which
makes the best meal in the world.
can be raised in good and profitable quaint
ties and matured before the frosts come.
In wheat production America has rivals
in England, Russia and India, and in Aus
tralia and Canada, but in the production of
maize OF Indian corn she has no rivals.
France and Italy raise little maize, but
none for expectation. Hence the world j.
Americas own rs the market for her most
abundant product. and America should pro
ceed. promptly, to awake and act up to her
opportunities.
But, TO begin with, Americans themselves
should inform themselves as to the qualities
and capabilities of corn. We now only
know that ii is good TO feed to horses and
hogs. and will make good corn cake and
brown bread for men and boys. But the
''Cerealine" people tell lis that corn, evolved
to its highest capabilities. can be material
lied into seremli-fre different palatable and
wholesome dishes, good enough for women
and girls to eat,
The constituents of flint corn are: 10 and
S5-lG0 parts water: and 45-10O ash: 10 and
s7-lOO albumenOidS, (nouriShing natter
but and 6l-lO0 of FIBRE; 30 and 2g-lOO
starch, gum, etc, and and 93- 100 of fat
Corn has the advantage Of wheat, the
staff OF life" in that it has a greater
amoun. of oil or fat. In wheat this ranges
from and 26-lOO Ia , and 67-IOO per cent
age, while in corn it averages and 29-IOO
per centage. The popular opinion. there
fore that corn is a heating and fattening
food is supported by chemical analysis. and
the Swe-teT the corn the better it is in these
respects. II corn will fatten hogs it will
fatten men.
Fortunately, the manufacturer is making
a study of corn and multiplying its food c. =
pacties and uses. 1t is being exalted into
puddings and fancy dishes that come at the
end Of the feast, when men are full and
need enticement to eat further. This comes
as a result of the important fact that
the cook is cooperating with the mannfac-
turer and helping him 10 make the best of
this great American crop.
Corn, If properly cultivated. can be count
ed on in great abundance in this locality.
Ii is the surest of crOps-quite as certain to
