Electricity on tho Farm.

The electric motor in country
houses or on q farm may be used
with a windmill, and the storage Of
power produced applied to saving
wood. chopping feed and countless
other outside purposes. Possibly be-
fore long it will run the moving ma
chine and tho cultlvator and take
the place Of horses and many men.
But. most and best of all, it can be
used now for lighting q house from
top to bottom. in every closet and
dark place, with perfect safety, with
a soft. daylight luster, the wiring
costing an average Of e. 80 light in
the first place, and the current cost
ing no more than gas. What more
there is for electricity to do in the
house remains to be seen. but appar.
emily it is going to take the place of
the tabled brownie and make work
easy and life twice as pleasant there.

A Welcon,s Form Of kecOvd Slght.

Second sight, by which is meant
throwing aside spectacles in old ago.
occurs to those who were shortsight-
ed in youth and proceeds from the
like cause that requires persons with
normal sight to use them viz, the
tlattening of tho eye in the one case
requiring to be corrected with mag,
nifying glasses, while in the other
case the same flattening of the eye
brings it into its normal state.
The late Mr.. John Stewart Of Bel
ladrum. Invernesshire, some time N.
P. for Beverly, recovered his sight
and left of the use OF spectacles long
after he was 10. He died some ~
years ago, aged nearly 20. Notes

A vnlual,lC Old Cont,

People often select curious places
in which to hide their boards, but it
remained for an unfortunate Welsh
woman to choose one molc singular
perhaps than usual. The good lady
lived in Il cottage with her husband.
and the other day, while she was alb
sent from home, Il tramp called and
asked for aims. The old man had
none to bestow upon him, but he
gave him an old, dilapidatel coat,
which he lad long since cast aside.
On the wifes return she missed the
coat and was horror struck to learn
what had l,eco.Ne OF it. Tor it turned
out that the foolish woman had for
years been boarding up money and
hiding ii away III this same old coat
The tramp was particularly for
tunatc, for he had netted exactly
fs2 by this charitable transaction.
We regret to add that be was not
honest enough to return the money,
and diligent as the search has heen
t. discover his whereabouts he has
not been found. Thus the savings
of Il lifetime have been lost hy .

Indian sand kMn.tA.,,

Who over heard of painting in
sand! The Moki Indians understand
that species of art. Two paintings OF
this kind, copied accurately from the
originals, have been newly placed on
exhibition at the National museum.
Perhaps they might better be called
mosaic*, being done i'll sand of siS
different colors Oh a fiat, horizontal
surface. The colors are yellow, green,
white, black and mixture.
Such pictures are made by Mo6
priests and priestesses on the floors
Of their subterranean chambers. The
six colors stand for the cardinal
points. Yellow is the north, green il
tho west red is the SOUTH white Is
the east, black is the region above,
and all colors signify the region he
low.
One of the two sand paintings is a
copy of the kind of picture made for
the annual ceremonial OF the Moki
women's festival to the germ god,
which takes place in September. The
work of art is executed during the
progress of the secret rites. 1t rep
resents two figures in an elaborate
frame of different colors. On the left
is u likeness of Lr-kone- ma ma, the
patroness of the affair. She is clad
in a white blanket. On the right is
a portrait Of one of the twin gods OF
war, who carries a zigzag of light
ming in his hands.
The other picture IS facsimile Of
the one made by the chief Of the Fra
ternity of Antelopes ut the festival Of
the snake dance. Washington Star.

Tobacco "North Its Weight In silver"
According to John Aui"ry, who
wrote Il celebrated work on the very
uueere Indian wecdc. there was a
time when tobacco was worth Its
weight in silver. Among other things
Aubery says: Sir Walter Raleigh
was the first that brought tobacco
into England, and in our parts
North Wilts--it came first in fashion
through Sir Walter Long. They had
silver pipes. but the commoners used
a walnut shell. 1t was sold then for
it's weight in silver. l have heard
some of your old yeomen neighbours
say that when they Went to Chippen-
