a USEFUL INVENTION.
All Automatic Heat Regulator for
Tobacco Curing Barns.

An Automatic Heat Regulator for
Tobacco Curing Barns.
Last season the GOLD LEAF had
something to say about an invention OF
a young North Carolinian, Mr.. Howard
F. Jones, of Steedsville, this county.
It is a thermometer or heat regulator
for use in tobacco curing barns. n test
is being made of it in the Snow Mod
ern Barn at Oxford and the Day says
this of it:
\ very ingenious and useful device
to be used in curing tobacco is being
tested at the Modern Tobacco Barn
Co.'s plant this week, and works very
successfully.
It is called 'sHeat Regulator It
consists of mechanical thermostat or
thermometer, a battery, an electric
moter and bell, and so arranged that
the curer can set the instrument at any
degree desired
If the curer desires to ''yellow'' at
90 degrees, he turns an index-or, in
short, sets''-the instrument at 90
degrees and lies down to rest. If he
should happen to fall asleep the instru-
ment will keep the temperature at 90.
If it reaches 81 then the device admits
cold air through the pipe and closes
draft to fire. If it then falls back to
80 the device will close cold air damper
and open draft to fire, thereby MAIN
tanning uniform temperature and doing
so automatically.
If the fire should need replenishing,
or the curer's presence is needed, an
electric bell rings and calls the curer to
the barn. The bell will ring until the
curer stops it by putting wood in the
fire and running the heat up to the
point "set''

BY SUSAN MARR RPALDING.
Two shall be born the whole wide world
apart,
And speak in different tongues, and have
no thought
Each of the others being, and no heed
And these DER unknown seas to unknown
lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death !;
And all uncOnsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one
end:
That one day, out of darkness, they shall
meet
And read life's meaning in each others
eyes.
And two shall walk some narrow way of
life
SO nearly side by side, that should one
turn
Ever so little space to the left or right
They needs must stand acknowledged face
to face
Aud yet. with wistful eyes they never meet.
With cropping hands that never clasp, and
lips
Calling in vain to ears that never hear.
They seek each other all their weary days
And die unsatifficd-and this is fate

EABY.s FOOT.
1t Is Said to Greatly Resemble a |
Monkeys.

1t Is Said to Greatly Resemble a
Monkeys.
Chow many people have ever taken
notice of baby's foot, except to
admire it's pinkness and prettiness?"
said a well-known scientist. "And
yet to the anatomist it is revelation.
Take, for example, the tootsies of a
child of 10 months that has never
walked or stood alone. 1t has a
power OF grasping to some extent and
is used instinctively like hand. The
great toe has a certain independent
working, like a thumb, and the
wrinkles of the sole resemble those OF
the palm. These markings almost
entirely disappear after the pedal
extremity has come to be employed
for purposes OF support and locomo-
ton.
"The hands and feet OF human
being are strikingly like those of the
I'LL DNuLCC III WullC Ullc
gorilla's resemblance to man in these
respects is even more remarkable.
The higher apes have been classified
as 'quadrumana,' or 'feur-handed,
because their hind feet are hand
shaped; but this designation is very
improperly applied, because the apes
posterior extremities are not really
hands at all. They merely look like
hands at the first glance, whereas in
fact they are but feet adapted for
climbing. The big toes can not be
opposed to the other toes as thumbs
are to the fingers, but simply act
pincerwise for the purpose of grasping.
"Now, funnily enough, the Infants
feet have this same power of grasping
pincer fashion, and the action is per-
formed in precisely the same way.
Advocates OF evolutionary theories
take this to signify that the human
foot was originally utilized for climb
ING trees also before hespecies was so
highly developed as it is now. Also
they assert that the fact of the art OF
walking erect is learned by the child
with such, difficulty proves that the
race has only acquired it recently"

were visited upon them. They came
into our camp and went all through
it, minutely inspecting our position,
works and sources, with q portion Of
their traitorous insignia upon them,
and the boldnesss of their conduct
made their fiimsy subterfuges almost
successful
To the last, however, they denied
being spies. They claimed that they
were endeavoring to get through our
lines in order to visit friends in the
North and Europe. But this story
was SO poorly matured that when
either told it it would not hang to-
gether, and there was little resem-
blance between the accounts which the
two gave. The arrest so completely
confounded them that they were never
able afterward to recover from it.
The unfortunate men made no COM
plant at the severity of their punish
ment, except that they deprecated the
ignominy OF being hanged: They were
too well informed not to know that
upon conviction of being spies, they
must suffer death, and hence they ex-
pected it and made no complaint.
Colonel Orion, who recognized
Colonel Watkins as soon as he saw
him, told him that he barely escaped
with his life when the arrest was made
that he had his hand on his pistol
to kill him and escape. Had it been
any one else he would have done so.
Colonel Orion delivered his sword
and pistols to Colonel Watkins and
told him to keep and wear them. He
also presented him with his horse,
which he valued at $4,000, and asked
him to treat him kindly for his sake.

TELL 1T DER AGAIN.

If once or twice will not suffice
To make the story plain,
That we rehearse in prose or verse,
We tell it DER again;
With tender care and oft with prayer,
The message we impart,
Until the child from play beguiled,
Has learned it well by heart.
But even then, with tongue and pen
In fifty chosen words,
The theme is spread, to music wed
AS sweet as songs OF birds;
And far and near some heart sincere
Takes up the glad refrain.
And quick to heed another's need,
Repeats it DER again.
Thusevery day, along our way
To many or to few,
The story is told that is so old,
And yet is ever knew;
And ii we fear it is not clear
Or wooing is in vain,
How eagerly and tenderly
We tell it DER again!
But in our homes oft times there comes
A shadow fraught with ill,
That casts blight Ger all things bright,
A hard. forboding chill;
And wen we know by signs that show
The bitter grief and pain
Ofhearts that grieve from morn till eve,
That love is on the wane.
This is the time that souls sublime
Will gather round their own,
With tenderness and fond caress
For past neglect atone;
And though Of old their love they told
In language terse and plain,
Fear twill disarm, and do no harm
To tell it DER again.

AN UNSELFISH STEED.

Remarkable Unselfishness Of a
Clergyman's Horse.
A doctor and clergyman were ex-
ercising their horses one morning in a
country lane, when an argument arose
between them as to which of the ami
mails possessed the sweeter disposl-
ton.
"Ill wager that if their respective
tempers could be tried" said the doc
tor, ''mine would be far away the
better"
"That's all nonsense" retorted the
clergyman. "My mare has the best
temper of any horse in the mel yhbor-
hood"
"Well, here's stiff hedge, let us try
their leaping capabilities, suggested
the doctor.
Fright you are" agreed his friend.
The doctors hunter quietly refused
to Jump, although put at it again and
again. The clergyman's little mare
also refused, but at the same time put
back her ears and exhibited consider
able ill-temper. When repeatedly
urged to jump she finally accomplished
clever back-jumping feat, which
threw her master over the hedge.
Strange to relate, the reverend gentle
man was unhurt, and, scrambling to
his feet, commenced to scrape the
mud from his broadcloth, whilst the
doctor laughingly remarked
Perhaps you are convinced now
that my animal has better DISPOSE
ton than yours"
'Not at ALL" replied the clergyman.
My mare is such an unfelfish little
brute that though unable to take the
fence herself, she had no desire to keep
me from going over. In fact, she
facilitated the mode of my transit,
whilst your horse displayed dog-in-
the-manger temperament by not going
himself and not allowing you to 20
