Farmers should not purchase old
sheep under any circumstances, but
should fatten and sell to the butch
cry old sheep which may be in
their docks. Old sheep which have
even partially good teeth may be
fattened at Q profit, but it is los
ing business to keep such sheep in
the flock, and the best sheep far
mers will pick out all such animals
and sell them as soon as practicable.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1886-01-07

Sheep should never be turned
into a yard with cattle and other
stock. is the advice of the best
shepherds. Their timid nature
makes them a prey to all other ami
mails. They are hooked about by
the cattle and playfully stamped
upon by horses and colts. Give
them their own particular domain,
and separate the ewes with lamb,
that they may receive extra feed
and care.

Or the oilinG of the stream.

And probe the secrets of time.
But their work would want the binding link,
If there was no band with t, pc and ink
To bear IT to every cline.
Though silent the force the touch is strong,
The ease is the world to HIM,
But he knows first of the stirring song
Ere the earths echoes sweep it along
From his attic hot and grim.

Till they fash truth again and again
To slaves as to heirs OF thrones.

The sound of his triumph may disclaim,
As he weaves his own renOwn.

FAMILY LORE.
Kindness and Unvarying Courtesy In Trifles
Its Surest Foundation.

Kindness and Unvarying Courtesy In Trine.
Its Surest Foundation.
There is but one pure, good idea
which is common to all men and ami
mails, says Poyntz, land that is-the
family"
The French Communists and a few
German and English social experiment
tiers have tried to destroy the family,
committing children when born to the
care of paid officials, and training them
en- mdsse, according to set rules.
Domestic affection was to be ami
Inflated in these schemes, and law of
sensual appetite WAS to to take its place.
Every such experiment has ended in
disaster. He setteth the solitary in
families" with purpose.
One of the wisest and most promi-
nent OF living American statesmen once
said, Whatever power [ have of in
tluencing other men, or of controlling
myself. learned at home, among my
brothers and sisters, We were a large
family, with differing tastes and charae-
the tact necessary for q peaceful life
with each other. fitted us for the fric-
ton with the world outside"
Boys and girls are apt to look upon
the family relation as a matter of
course, inevitable and fixed as the rising
of the sun or moon, without recOgniz-
ing its effect upon themselves. How
necessary and permanent this effect is
was shown in England lately by an ex-
pertinent which was made by some
well meaning reformerS. A large num-
Der of children were removed from
wretched homes, and brought up in
industrial schools under scientific
and moral regimen.
When the girls were old enough, they
were put out to service, but in every
instance complaints were made of their
cruelty to children, of their ingratitude
and of the impossibility of winning
their affection. 1.-The human nature
in them is utterly dwarfed," wrote one
observer. They are only morosc, i'll
natured machines. Better that a
child should be reared in bad family
than in no family at all.
Brothers and sisters often find it i'm
possible to feel deep, true affection
and admiration for each other. There
may be wide discrepancy in charac-
ter, tastes and habits of thought be-
tween them. After all. the dove does
not ally itself with the crow. But there
is a genuine loyalty which can take the
place of spontaneous sympathy. Be-
side this there is no mortar to bind
different parts of the household to-
gether like kindness and unvarying
courtesy in triiles.
Il knew his mind was affected, for
he spoke roughly to me-" said Castle
reagh's valet. How many sisters could
thus testify of their brothers?-Yonth' S

when pictures and pottery. old furni

not matter for surprise that spurious

THE TELEGRAPH.
The Honor of Its Invention Belonging to
Joseph Henry.

The Honor of Its Invention Belonging to
Joseph Henry.
Strada, an Italian Jesuit, 269 years
ago, spoke in an academic paper of "the
instantaneous transmission of thoughts
and words between two individuals over
an indefinite space" This was the
first suggestion of an electric telegraph
of which there is any record. Strada
had in mind a species of lodestone,
which possesses such virtues that he
believed they might be utilized for this
purpose. Many experiments on cleo
trio telegraphs were made in the last
century. None, however, were fruit
full of results until after the electro
magnet, the conducting wire and the
galvanic battery had been invented.
Joseph Henry, the distinguished Ameri-
can scientist, who was but recently
graduated at the Albany On. "
Academy, devised system of electro
magnetic telegraphy in 1881, which he
put into operation at the academy
grounds. Henry, with the spirit of
true, unselfish benefactor of his race,
refused to patent his idea, which thus
became the property of the world.
Moreover, he WAS ahead of his times,
and the world was unprepared for his
invention. In 1885 he developed his
scheme to a still greater extent,
and put line in operation at Prince
ton. n. j. Hon. Levi Woodbury., then
Secretary of the Treasury, sent out
circular to scientists and scientific
bodies in this country, proposing in
qairies as TO the advisability of establish
ing system OF electro magnetic tele-
graphy in this country. Three letters,
signed samuel +. b. Morse" came to
the Secretary recommending the trial
of the scheme. Morse had already
made some experiments in electricity,
and had conceived the idea of an
eiectro-chemica telegraph. At the
time which he wrote to the Secretary
he was professor in the University in
the city OF New York. Morse subse-
quently devised an apparatus by which
he was enabled to send messages ten
miles. He then, in 1888, exhibited his
invention to Congress, but no action
was taken for four years by that body.
A bill was at length passed appropri-
ating $50, 900 for the construction of
Morse's experimental line, between
Washington and Baltimore, a distance
of forty miles. 1t was put into opera
ton in 1874. This was the beginning
of the telegraphic service which, with
improvements and notifications, is
now found in every land in Christen-
dom. Although Morse is popularity
supposed to be the inventor of the
electromagnetic telegraph. the honor,
as previously intimated, in reality be-
longs to Joseph Henry. To-day there
are SIS, 900 miles of wires in operation
in the United States and ?, 900. 600 miles
in the world.-St. Louis GLobe-Denso-
