Pennsylvania Pelt.Hunters.

The amateur trappors and hunters Of
the Lebanon and Schuylkill valleys are
now reaping their harvest by securing
the skins OF the small wild animals so
prevalent in Berks, Lebanon, Montgom-
cry, Lancaster, Lehigh, and other coun-
ties, and sending them to some of the
leading furriers in the country. The
foxes, skunks, opossums, raccoons,
muskrats, and other animals caught in
these counties for their fur alone number
thousands annually. In single season
Reading dealers havo alone purchased
and shipped to Philadelphia, New York
and other furriers as high as $4,000 to
10000 skins. This year these animals
have been exceedingly plentiful, and the
shipments have been very heavy. Some
Of the finest skins are sent from Phila-
delphia and New York to the centers of
the fur trade in Germany and elsewhere,
and there prepared according to methods
with which they alone seem conversant,
after which they are again sent back to
this country in finished state, and
bring high prices. Many farmers boys
make extra pocket money by trapping
these animals, and their traps can be
found in the fields, in the woods, and
along the streams.
For the next few months the slaughter
of these animals will continue, and a
successful season is anticipated. Now
and then a wildcat is shot, and some of
the counties pay bounty of $3.50 for
killing one of these animals, and their
skin is much sought after forrugs. The
prices paid for furs this season depend
greatly upon the condition they are in
when they reach the local dealers. Black
skunks are worth from $1.10 to $1.35,
while the half-stripe range from 80 to rs
cents each, and the full stripe from 25 to
30 cents each. Muskrats are worth 10
and 10 cents each. Minks command
from 80 cents to 81 each, and red
foxes are worth 70 cents and $125
each, while gray foxes bring only from
90 to 10 cents. 'Possums are worth only
10 and 10 cents, but coons are more val
liable, running from % to rs cents

An Old-Time Clock.

Thomas d. Bullinger, of Govanstown,
is the owner of an antique work of mech
anism. 1t is the result of years of
labor of an old clockmaker of Nurem-
berg, Germany. 1t is clock with u
framework of walnut, and stands eleven
feet high. AT the top it is 81 feet across,
but tapers until at the centre it is only
two feet wide. 1t rests on pedestal
which is same width as the top of the
clock. The dial is twelve inches in
diameter, of white enamel and black
figures. The dial sets in handsome oil
painting of David performing on harp,
and u pretty woman with bowed head
listening attentively TO the music.
When the clock strikes the hour two
beautiful German airs are heard in sue
cession, and on a platform above the
dial twelve small figures of men and
women, about five inches high, dance in
couples. Musicians are seated in the
rear of the figures, performing on the
cornet, drum and clarionet. A clown
appears clapping his hands and moving
his mouth. A figure appears on either
side of the platform and makes a polite
bow. The clock plays twenty four diff
ferent tunes. The musical weight is of
lead and weighs 1875 pounds. Over 1870
various pipes are needed to play the
tunes. The entire clock weighs nearly
600 pounds.
The machinery is extremely compli-
Gated. The clock is over 100 years old.
Mr.. Henry Reifner, corner of Bank and
Wolfe streets, recently repaired the mu-
steal arrangement for Mr.. Bullinger.-

Australia's s Size.

The size of Australia is not generally
appreciated. The seven colonies be-
tween them occupy a territory greater
than that of the United States, excluding
Alaska. New South Wales alone is as
large as the thirteen states. Tasmania,
the Rhode Island of Australia, is as large
as that state, with New Jersey, New
Hampshire and Massachusetts added !;
Victoria, the smallest colony of the con-
tinent, is equal in size to Great Britain.
Queensland surpasses the united areas of
Austria, France and Germany, South
Australia, one third greater than Queens
land, is nearly as large as Western Aus
tralia, which of itself has nearly four
times the extent of Texas, while the two
colonies together are larger than the
whole of Europe without Russia. The
total population is about 100000

Though no doctor, Il have by me
some excellent prescriptions, and as
charge you nothing for them, you can.
not grumble at the price. We are
most of us subject to fits, and I am
visited with them myself. Now,
then, for my prescriptions.
For fit of passion, walk out into
the open air. You may speak your
mind to the wind without hurting
any one, or proclaiming yourself to be
a simpleton.
For fit of idleness, count the
tickings of clock. Do this for one
hour, and you will be glad to pull off
your coat the next day and work like
negro.
For a fit OF extravaganza or folly,
go to the workhouse, or speak with
the ragged and wretched inmates of a
jail, and you will be convinced.
"WhO maketh his bed must lie in it. Z"
For fit of ambition, go into the
church-yard and read the gravestones.
They will tell you the end of ambi-
tion.
For a fit of repining, look about for
the halt and blind, and visit the bed
ridden and afflicted, and they will
make you ashamed of complaining of
your lighter Affections.
CFor fit of dependency, look on
the good things which have been
given to you in this world. He who
goes into his garden to look for cob
webs and spiders will find them, while
he who looks for flower may return
into the house with one blooming in
his button-hole.

Probably not less than so, 600 people
are killed by snakes in India every
year. They are one of the chief causes
of mortality in that country.
Great efforts have been made
by the British Government to de-
stroy them, but with very little
success. Unfortunately the natives
regard them as sacred. They con-
slider the cobra in particular as en-
bodying some sort of divinity, and it
is customary for them to allow these
frightful creatures as pets on their
premises. Offers of bounties for SER
pent's heads have been discouraged
by the discovery OF. the practice pur-
sued by many low-caste Hindoos OF
breeding snakes artiticially to supply
the official demand. In that warm
climate snakes propagate their species
very fast and their venom ac-
cumulates rapidly. Although the
cobra is the most dreaded of all, the
kraft and other varities are hardly
less deadly. They swarm everywhere.
The cobras are especially fond of TAX
ing up their residence in gardens and
under verandas. No cure for a
cohra's bite is known to science,
though there is good evidence that
the native doctors sometimes rescue
victims by remedies which they keep
secret. WashingtOn Star.

Fleet Signaling by Balloon.

Attempts have frequently been made
both on shore and at sea to transmit
signals by means of n captive balloon
and system which promised excellent
results, has recently been tried in the
German Navy. BY its means an admiral
can signal his fleet at night. or TO ships
passing by, at far greater distance
than is now possible, as, owing to its
height, the balloon gives much wider
range than masthead The code
adopted is the Morse; and the different
signals are G ven by means of incandes-
cent electric lamps fitted to the lower part
of the balloon, and worked by wires CON
nected with the batteries on shore or on
the flagship. The balloon can also be
used fer lighting up the country round,
and for this purpose powerful electric
lamp, with a strong reflector, is attached
to the lower ring of the balloon. 1t is not
necessary to have man in the car of the
balloon to work the signals, as the lamps
are entirely worked by electricity, and
only come in contact with the. cover of
the balloon when the electric current is
turned off.

COUNTRY TOWN EDITORS.
Some Reasons why They Are Nearly Al
ways Poor and Unhappy.

Although country editors are nearly
always poor, There are plenty Of per-
sons who believe that half the para
graphs in a country newspaper are
paid for with enormous bribes, writes
the author of ga Country Town." in
the Century. There are always two
sides to every question, and which
ever side an editor falls on, the par
tisans of the other accuse him of be-
ing ''bought." 1t is little wonder,
therefore, that the editor is seldom a
popular man; never knew one who
was, and / never knew one who was
not often accused unjustly. Probably
the people believe in bribes to editors
because it is very rare editor who
does not accuse his opponent of being
bribe taker, creating a prejudice
against themselves and their calling.
Lazy and incompetent editors nearly
always explain the success of their
more vigorous opponents by declaring
that they carry on system of black
mail.
once visited ia large city the
newspapers which l had long admired
almost with reverence. and was sur
prised to hear a citizen say that what
the city really needed was better pa
pers; they would bring eastern capi-
tai" Every citizen of country town
wants his locality "boomed," to the
end that he may sell his $50 lot for
$500; he can appreciate how a really
good paper might aid him in this, and
because his lot does not advance in
value as he thinks 1T should, he has
grievance against the editor. He longs
for an editor with some "snap" in
him. don't know what s'snap"
means, but l know this is the quality
usually thought to be lacking. There
are more great men in every country
town than really exist in the entire
nation, and if they are not recognized
the local papers are of no account. I
was once bothered good deal by a
certain man who said he could clean
more chickens in an hour than any
other chicken-cleaner In the world,
and he wanted the fact mentioned.
Men who are never suspected of great
ness by other people accuse themselves
va ~ w oho SuiOoiS, anu NlleH Ulley re-
fuse to mention this greatness they
are told that their columns contain a
great deal of stuff not half so inter
esting. 1t has occurred to me that
when citizen of country town be-
comes drunk the first thing he does is
to hunt up the editor and tell' him
what is the matter with the COM
munity.

Down in Otoe County they have
resur"ected an old story on Col. Van
Wyck that win bear repitition in
spite of its advanced years, says the
Nebraska State Journal. When the
ex-senator was running for Congress
in the Fifteenth New York District
party feeling was at fever heat, the
war was just over and much of its
bitterness fingered in the hearts of
all men. There was certain Irish
man in Sullivan County who had
steadfastly refused to give the old SOL
diers any encouragement, although
they had labored with him faithfully.
The Colonel was greatly surprised,
therefore, when Pat informed him on
election day that he had concluded to
support him.
''Glad to hear it, glad to hear it, +"
said the Colonel; II rather thought
you were against me, Patrick"
"Well SIR" said Patrick, II wuz
and whin ye stud by me pig pen and
talked that day fur two hours or
worse, ye didn't bulge me hairs
breadth, sir, but after ye wuz gone
away l got to thinking how ye
reached yer hand over the fence and
scratched the pig on the back till he
laid down wild the pleasures of it, and
| made up me mind that whin rale
kernel was as sociable as that, 1
wasn't the man to vote agin him." {

Homemade Tooth Powder.

Some of the best powders for the teeth
are prepared at home. A simple old
powder is made of pure charcoal pound
ed and sifted and mixel to n paste with
water favored with myrrh, if you like
the slightly bitter refreshing flavor. If
a charcoal paste is used, abundance of
water should be used to rinse the mouth,
as nothing is more Objectionable than a
residue of black streaks left sometimes
by this powder. Equal parts of prepared
chalk, powdered pumice stone and pull
verized orris root make u good paste.
There is no better wash than the we'll
known one of few drops of myrrh dis
solved in tablespoonful of water, but
where this is not agreeable there are
many delicious washes now found for
sale which are equally valuable.-[New
