Dentition of Sheep.

\ Scotch sheep breeder says the lamb
when about month old possesses eight
temporary iucisor teeth-usually termed
Che milk teeth The after dentition Is
considerably effected by the nature of the
feeding. When the sheep are on poor
keep the centre pair of iucisors are shed
at about one year old, and are replaced
by two large and permanent teeth. A.
about two years old second pair of large
teeth are acquired; at three years old a
third pair; and at four years fourth pair
the animal is then termed full mouthed.
When the sheep are literally fed the
first pair of permanent teeth are acquired
| at about ten months old; the second al
eighteen; the third Al twenty seven; and
the fourth at about three years. There
are however, exceptions to every role
| and the teeth cannot always be relied Oh
in correctly determining the age.-West

Can 1t be possible that the sgIreme

~ There is something curious in the fact
that among the names of Presidential pos
sibilities fol '92 that Of Benjamin Harrison
does not appear. His aspiration for second
term, II he has any, seems not to be recog-
nized. at least not regarded by the party to
which he belongs. He has been President of
these United States for one year and the Re-
publican papers and periodicals have regaled
the spublic with resume of the blessings
which we owe to the fact, and yet not word
is said looking to the reelection of the man
with the big hat. II the year just passed has
been of such unprecedented prosperity, and
we owe that prosperity to the wise direction
of the present head of the administration
why is it that his party is so neglectful OF
him as to forget to urge his denomination I
1t is not such mystery as It seems. The
truth Of the matter is this, Benjamin Harri-
son, BY the verdict Of the people. is failure.
He is the smallest great man this country
has known. tits all very well for a subsi-
died press to blow his shining virtues as
man, and his remarkable abilities as Chief
Executive, from Dan to Beersheba, but the
people have seized him up and know him TO:

8 BWe do not believe in "rippers.n The
people Of Ohio cities ought 70 govean them
selves. The Legisiature when II tries to set
aside local self government and substitute
the arbitrary rule of minority is moving di-
rectly away from Rood, sound democracy. But
there are circumstances Of course under
which ripper" legislationis is eminently prop
er. Certain cities in this State under the
administratipn Of Governor Foraker we're
outraged most shamelessly with no more
warrant than is found in brute force. Cities
which had won Democratic victories were
robbed of the fruits of their hard work by
the passage of partisan ripper" bills passed
by Republican Legislature to thwart the
will of the people. Such work ought to be
undone at once and in following such
course the present Legislature is simply
righting wrong perpetrated by the Repub-
licans. A "ripper" bill which gives to the
reople the results they won ct the polls is
always in order.-Akron Times.

GET RICH

q That is piece Of advice very.

sea voyage; or the poor woman
to take good nourishing food
and a glass Of port wine. We
don't need to be told to get rich
but we do need to be@told how
to do it. fE
There are many ways to get
money. Speculation is one way.
You can buy stocks, bonds,
shares etc. but all this re-
quires capital to start with, and
you have none, we will sup
pose, Then you must, begin
saving money, but this only
shifts the shoe that pinches to
the other foot. How to save
money is nearly as great a prob
lem as how to get rich. 1t is

how money saved on your necc,
sssary, expenses may layTthe
foundation for fortune for you;
and you can save money every
time you trade bybuying cheap,
That's no news, you will
probably say OF course you
can,save bybuying cheap. You
could also fly if you had wings.
You can do anything if you
know how. You are quite
willing to save on your buying
if you know where to go.-
That's what we are getting at.
We would not waste time
by offering all this advice with
out having] a practical end j in
view. If you want to. buy.
goods at prices which will save
you much money don't fail to
visit the large drug and book
house:of Saur 4 Balsley. You
can not only save big money
on the necessary medicines
which your. family need at this
especial season Of the year, but
also ron wall and. window pa

drawing near when it becomes
