Wanted Two Millions.

One of the girls in fashionable society
in New York made up her mind to get
married the other day, and after con-
hding her intention to her father, she
said; "What do you intend to do for
mel" The father was wealthy man,
and thought that he was showing a
liberal spirit when he answered: "Well,
[ will give you 500, 00O to buy house
and $25, 900 to furnish it with" "And
what will you give me to live on9" the
young lady demanded, with a dissatisfied
look on her face. ''0h, will allow you
the interest on another 500, 600, " replied
her father. ''But my cook will cost at
least $1,000 year. How do you think |
nan possibly manage with so little7"
The father looked slightly grieved, but
only said; "That must do while am
living; you will probably have more
when am gone" The young man who
was interested in hearing the result of
this conversation between father and
daughter said when he heard it: ''He
might at least have given her two
millions" The marriage did not take
place. .-NelO York Press.

A uniaue Telegraph system.

There has grown up among the farm
ers of county in Michigan a telegraph
system which might be extended
throughout the rural districts every
where. The system began by two farm
ers connecting their houses with wire
for their own convenience and operating
their line with an ordinary Morse in
struments. Gradually other farmers ex-
tended the line TO their houses, and after
a time the wire was run into neighbor-
ing village. Seven years ago the COM
bined farmers and lew village
merchants organized themselves into a
company and it has since been extended
until now it has sixty-five miles of wire
and ninety offices, two-thirds of the lat
ter being in farm-houses, and nearly all
the rest in stores where these farmers do
their trading. One or two newspaper
Offices, as many more railroad freight
offices, the County Telephone Exchange
and the larger post-ofiices arc all con-
nected. Every farmer is his own opera
tor, battery n an and line repairer. OF
course, any quantity of private COM,
is kept up between the stock
holders of this Independent system.
There are two or three independent sys-
TENS of these lines in the country, ar
ranged so that they can be connected
with each other at inteTsecting points,
and the whole scheme is being worked
very cheaply and successfully. = Chicago

Transplantins Rabbits Nerve.

able operation recently performed by DR..
Gersung, of Vienna, being the trans
plantation of nerve from rabbit to a
man. The patient is Professor Won
Fleischl, a distinguished physiologist of
the University of Vienna Sixteen years
ago he was poisoned by cut during post
mortem. His thumb had to be amputated,
disease of the nerve intervened, aad
after some years the whole system of
nerves of the thumb and the first fingers
was affected and became very painful.
Gersung's operation consisted in taking
as long piece as possible of sciatic
nerve from rabbit, which was still pal
pitating, and inserting it in the place of
six centimeters of the diseased median
nerve cut from Fleischps hand. For a
few hours there was great pain. This
then entirely subsidized and healing be-
gan. Two months have now elapsed,
and the pain has not returned. The sue
cess is believed to be permanent.

Aprysexie is the name DIR. Guye, of
Amsterdam, chooses for inattentiveness,
and he quite singularly finds that the
nose is a cause of it. A dull boy became
quick to learn after certain tumors had
been taken from the nose, and man who
had been troubled with vertigo and
buzzing in the ears for twelve years
found mental labor easy after a like
operation. In a third case medical
student was similarly relieved. DIR.
Guye supposes that these nasal troubles
fleet the brain by preventing the cerebral
mph from circulating freely.

FARM AND GARDEN.
TO Grow tomatoes in Percect,on

Because the generous nature of the
tomato yields bountifully with seemingly
little care and attention, says G. l..
Allen, in the Anserican Agricult0rist, the
general impression prevails that the plant
requires but little attention. This is a
sad mistake, for there is not vegetable
In the garden that is so gross feeder,
nor one that readily pays for all the food
and care given as the tomato. To grow
It 20 the greatest perfection, the hills
should be dug out TO the depth of two
and half feet; ct the bottom there
should be half bushel of well-rotted
manure; above this let the soil be an
equal mixture of loan and manure
thoroughly mixed. The hills should be
at least six feet apart. Let the situation
be open, warm, airy. When the fruit
begins to set mulch with clean straw or
very small brush. Under these condi-
tions six plants will furnish sufficient
tomatoes for family of twelve persons.
Whatever variety may be planted in this
manner, the result will show specimens
OF size, smoothness, and esculent proper
ties, unknown to the variety when grown
IN the ordinary manner.
