How it Feels to be a millionaire.

In view of the fact that but few people
are in the habit Of discovering by per-
sonal experience how it feels to be mil
lionaire, Mr.. Geo. NJ. Pullman, the pos
SCISSOR OF S50oOO,000, has described the
feeling. II believe" says he, "that ]
am no better off-certainly no happier
than 7 was when I didn't have
dollar to my name and had to work
from daylight until dark. I wore 8
good suit clothing then and can only
wear one now. relished three meals
a day then a good deal more
than I do three meals a day now.
I had fewer cares, l slept better, and ]
may add, generally, that l believe !

millionaire. And yet it is comfort
able feeling to be rich"

An Infant Prodigy in Anatomy.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
At the regular meeting of the South
ern Medical Society last Saturday
evening, Master Albert Werner Fensch
OF Fort Mcpherson was unanimously
elected to honorary membership IN
that organization, as the youngest med
ical student known to the profession.
DR.. J. E. Price, of Virginia, Presi-
dent ofthe society, who introduced this
young gentleman, stated that though
be had barely attained the age of 5
years, he was possessed of knowledge
of anatomy, especially Of osteology,
equal to that Of many graduates Of
medicine.
In his exhibition before the society
the child was able, not only to give the
technical and scientific names Of each
of the 200 and odd bones of the hu-
man skeleton, but to describe their
various functions, divisions, tuberosi-
ties, tubercles, &c.
The little fellow prefers to amuse
himself by fitting together and adjust
ing the bones Of the human body (of
which he has been presented COM
plete set) to playing with blocks,
drums, and whistles and delights in
tracing on anatomical charts and cuts
the various vessels Of the human anat-
omy, rather than amusing himself
with picture books. He intelligently
listens to and appreciates scientific
lecture on anatomy while scorning
Mother Goose's melodies, and chooses
his friends and acquaintances among
physicians and medical students rather
than from children of his own age.
This little anatomist is a favorite
with the professors aud a pet Of the
students of the Southern Medical Col
lege, where he rarely fails to be in at
tendance upon Prof. Nicholson's lee
lures on anatomy.
This infant wonder was highly de-
lighted aud appeared to fully appre-
ciate the honor conferred upon him,
and in his own phraseology addressed
the President and gentlemen of the
society, thanking them 70: his election
to honorary membership.
"Dr. Albert" as he is called by his
acquaintances, can be seen on pleasant
mornings, lunch basket in hand, trudg-
ing alone from Whitehall street cross
ing to Walton street, where he is in
attendance at the kindergarten de-
partment of Mrs. Baylor Stuart's aca-
denny, where his long golden curls,
rosy cheeks, intelligent blue eyes and
amiable disposition make him 4 general
favorite.

FLUTES OF THE PYRAMIDS.
Played 5000 Years After Burial The
Egyptians Had Our Scale
GLOndon Daily News.


A number of eminent musicians were
invited to listen to a highly interest
ing lecture delivered yesterday to the
Royal Academy students by T. l..
Southgate, upon ancient Egyptian
musical instruments in general, and
upon the double pipes recently dis
covered by Flinders Petrie in the
tomb at Kahun in particular. From
the fact that the flutes shown in the
frescoes were of various lengths, Mr..
Southgate conjectured that the Egyp-
tians, almost from the time of Moses,
must have had knowledge of some
sort of harmony, while, as in one Of the
frescoes, seven flute performers were
simultaneously playing, an eighth bad
what be vhimsically described as
fifty bars rest"
Still more interesting was the e1hi-
bition Of the actual flutes discovered in
the lady's sarcophagus at kabena and
indisputably dating before the time Of
King David, of Israel. Performed upon
and the task of playing these archaic
instruments is now most difficult, by
Mr.. J. Finn, they yesterday gave prac-
tically the exact notes of our diatonIc
scale, thus proving-in every sense OF
the terms to actual demonstration
that our scale was known to the Egyp-
tians many centuries before the Greeks,
from whom it had enormously been
supposed we borrowed it. No attempt
was made to perform the double flute,
and, indeed, If ever the two were
played together, the art is lost. But
upon a copy of one Of these ancient
funeral dirge, entitled "The Song OF
Sonus." The tone of these instru'
ments, we may add, in no way re-
sembles that of the flutes Of to-day. II
to a certain extent recalls the drone o
the bagpipe, although one prominent
musician yesterday irreverently likened
it to the sound OF the small-tooth CONT
and tissue paper Of childhood days.
Many other copies of ancient instru
ments were tried yesterday, among
them a replica of flute, discovered two
years ago by French savant, with
eleven holes, with the approximate
date being 1875, B. c., that is to say
during the period that the Israelites
were still in Egypt. TO 'stop" eleven
holes in flute would seem to demand
that one of the hands should have 81
extra finger; but Mr.. Finn, after
many trials, has succeeded in doing it,
and the notes given were practically
those Of one chromatic scale. From
these and other facts Mr.. Southgate,
in the peroration to his very valuable
lecture, contended that the tonality OF
the ancient Egyptian was the source OF
our own music, and certainly none OF
the musicians present were willing to
contradict doctrine which seems quite
feasible.

Resignation OK Rev. j. C. Eoyd.
"a. r. Presbyterian I

Prosperity and HeadSprings churches
Newberry County, S. c., are now with
out pastor. The cause out of which
this grew seemed at first little "cloud
no bigger than mans hand" and this
cloud was caused by difference Of
opinion about erecting new building
and moving the church of Prosperity
into the village of Prosperity. All
thought and hoped that the matter
would be amicably settled, but the end
is not yet. The small cloud has grown
until its black dimensions have dark
ened the horizon. Christians should
be prayerfully careful to preserve 1.-The
spirit of unity in the bond of peace" I"
for schisims are more easily made than
healed and their tendency is to widen.
Though not intimately connected with
the trouble there is not an A. r. P.
church in Newberry County that does
not entertain very pronounced feelings
concerning the difficulty. "Behold how
great matter..a little fire kindleth."
Under the existing circumstances
Mr.. Boyd and many of his warmest
friends thought it best that he resign,
but not that they were tired of him.
No we are, by no means, tired of him,
but feel a devotion to him which will
last until death.
Mr.. Boyd came to US like Timothy,
young, just from the seminary, and be
has served US thirty-two years. Dur
ing that time he has been faithful,
patient pastor. He received many Of
us into the church and when we started
life, he married most of us; he baptized
our little ones, prayed, oh, so fervently,
over odr sick, and stood with US by the
yawning grave as We gave to it the
fathers and mothers we so much loved
Is it any wonder we esteem him SO
highly? Is it any wonder we weep
when we realize the fact that the bond
which united us as pastor and people
i, torn asunder? Could woman's tears
have healed the wound there would
scarce be scar to tell the tale.
Mr.. Boyd has been and still is high
ly esteemed all over the county. For
several terms he served acceptably as
school commissioner and was urgently
solicited to allow his name to be Of
fered as candidate during the last
campaign.
But he is gone. His beautiful home
which he so much loved and around
which his members loved to linger is
now the home of a stranger, his pulpit
is vacant and we look in vain for his
cordial greetings, for they are not.
A minister so orthodox as Mr.. Boyd
will soon find a field of labor, and we
assure those to whom he is committed
that they will not be fed with the high
sounding words of mans wisdom, but
they will be fed with milk for the weak
and meat for the strong.
May his last days be like Gods faith
full servant, Job, more prosperous than
his beginning.

hogs are dissected and salted down.
What rare souse and chime. The

weeks. Pigs feet are plentiful and the

keen for the fat pickings Of the killing.
Think of those home made hams, the

received such delicate attentions as
would leave them il proper condition
for the knife. Since that time they
have been given every consideration.
They have had the pick of the pen.
Nothing OF the lot was too good for
them. Choice bits from the barn and
