Any thing which will reduce the cost

from an invention formerly patented
but which is now free. The right-hand

graduated from one large enough to
enter the canal as it is now, up to one
so large as to dilate the canal sufficient
ly to allow the milk to flow freely; the
change from small probc to one next
larger in the series is not to be made un-
til the first size will enter the canal
without any pressure being made. After
the dilation has been accomplished, sub
seguent contraction of the canal should
be prevented by an occasional introduce
tion of the largest probe. Use no force
IN introducing the probe, and keep it
perfectly clean.--Farm and Home.

Thou shalt not bear ;. .lse witness
against thy nelghbg Ninth command
ment. uo.'
MEssRs. EDIToRs:-I would like the
privilege TO make q statement in my own
behalf in regard to evidence given at the
last term OF court by Brother Anderson
aud Brother Updyke against myself, q
publican, (joseph r. Esgner) at Seventh
and Church streets. First. Brother An
derson swore that fight took place on
Sunday In the street and that the princi-
pals charged themselves with whisky at
my place; that he was positive kept no
bosrders; that his wife tainted; that the
evidence given by other witnesses was not
to be believed. In fact, Brother Ander-
son seemed to wish to impress upon the
court that he and Brother Updyke were
to be believed above all other witnesses,
because the others were not right-think-
ing people. Now, would like TO know
how Brother Anderson knows that the
principals OF the fight obtained their
whisky at my place; whereas, he never
was inside OF my doors. Also, am pre-
pared to prove that kept three boarders
at the time OF which he speaks, and one
of the belligerents ! had discharged tor
unruly conduct, and be came back drunk
to 6ght the others, when put them out
In the street, and they fought among
th emselvee.
Second, Anderson alsO swore that he
frequently saw me under the influence OF
whisky. This is barefaced fabrication,
as can truthfully say that have not
drank glass OF whisky for 20 years
past. He also inferred that he had seen
females going in and out of my house.
