 In Hartford County, Connecticut many farmers say that they have cur tailed their spring planting because of the scarcity of farm help. This scarcity of help exists in Berkshire County and throughout New England as we'll. The attention of honest unemployed men in the large cities should be directed to this fact. They can find plenty of work on New England farms at wages rang ing from $16 to $25 per month with board. Berkshire County Eagle.

REMARKABLE MEMORY.

John Franklin was native of Canaan, Litchfield county, Connecticut. An in stance of his remarkable memory, when 8 lad of seventeen, will show that he was no ordinary boy. Having accom- panied the family to the place of wor- ship, the meeting house being only en- closed, but neither ceiled nor plastered, the beams and rafters were all exposed to view. John saw that his astute father sat through the sermon with great un- easiness, but could not devine the cause. On returning home, "John," said his father, cit is my duty to give you 8 severe thrashing, Common in old times) and you shall have it presently, so pre- pare yourself" Etr E..
 "But you won't whip me, father. without telling me what for?"
 ''No, certainly; your conduct at meet ing, sir, IS the cause. Instead of attend ing to the sermon, you were all the time gaping about ss if you were count ing the beams and rafters of the meet ing house."
 Well, father; can you repeat the sermon?"
 Sermon! no. I had as much as I could do to watch your inattention."
 elf I tell you all the minister said, you won't whip me?"
 "No, John, no; but that is impossible
 Young Franklin immediately named the text, and taking up the discourse, went through every head of it with sur prising accuracy.
 ".And now, father," said John, "I can tell you exactly how many beams and rafters there are in the meeting house. Miners History of Wyoming.

ClinOmeter or Plumb Level.

A new plumb level has been put upon the market which appears to be most handy and valuable little in strument. It is a thoroughly practical device for leveling, plumbing and striking angles, elevations and grades and, while being exceedingly simple, is admirably accurate. It is described as being especially adapted to the use of carpenters, machinists, stationary, civil and mining engineers and bridge build CTS, as well as for the ditching and draining of farm lands, landscape gar dening, etc. This device should be very acceptable to track layers and roadmasters, as by it's use grades and curves can be tested without the as- sistance of civil engineer, and 1t is claimed that it is much more, ralable than the spirit level New York Gem msrcial Advertiser,

 Flies are not half as big as ele- phants, but they make twice as much trouble here in Connecticut. The best way to get rid of the trouble is to use door and window screens. They empty house of flies and mosquitoes and fill it with comfort. Screen doors, $1.25 l; window screens, 25 cents up. Sold by T., T. & R., 7S & 80 Asylum St., Hart ford.
 Eddie McCarty and Louis Holt have presented 6S pound bell to the school at East Canaan. The bell was purchased from the Housatonic Rail- road Go. and is one of the number that said company offered for sale at Ames- vile. Messrs H. E, Holt and Edward McCarty placed the bell in the tower of the school house and then rigged up g frame work, pulleys and rope to ring the bell with. They made no charge for their services, and thus the district gets nice bell free of charge. Now if someone will give the school flag the happiness of teachers and scholars will be complete.
