The wheat is well up, and the alfalfa is growing nicely and will give good stand in very short time. Mr.. Burke thinks his experience explodes the generally accepted theory that ai- falfa seed will rot in the ground unless it sprouts at once. The seed that he planted laid in the ground three months before sprouting.

Most Horrible Of An Dreams.

No words are strong enough to
point out the danger of slow poison
ing by drugs which are often taken
to procure sleep, whether it be an al
coholic nightcap, morphine, opium,
chloral or any other. The medical
man has recourse with reluctance to
these as a last and temporary resort,
and only he can tell how many lives
are wrecked by the illtimed use of
them and their subsequent abuse.
OF all horrible dreams none is SO
awful as those which assail people
who habitually use these false com
forters Better than all the drugs in
the world for procuring sleep are
simple food, regular life and calm
mind.-Cassell's.

ROMANCE OF CRIME.
Great Thieves Whose Names Are
Still Keyp Green.

The French have not forgotten
those old-time Williams, Carlouche
and Mandrin, while in England
Dick Turpin and his apocryphal
ride to York have not passed from
the public memory. The exploits
of Jack Sheppard as burglar and
prison-breaker turn up from time to
time in the public prints and it is an
almost scandalous fact that quite
modern fashionable dressmakers
have devised a costume named after
Claude Duval, a rascal in whose
career there is not one single pic
turesque or romantic feature.
Jerry Abershaw and Sixteen
String Jack, the one highwayman
and the other foot-pad, have come
down to posterity in a singularly
vivid aspect, and only lately a pub
Usher proposed to issue biography
of the impudent picEpocket George
Darlington as an example of an
adventurous" life. OF all the vul-
gar criminals, however, who deserve
to be completely forgotten, the
rufianly thief-taker and receiver of
stolen goods, Jonathan Wild is per-
haps the most typical instance of a
felon whom .posterity has refused to
forget.
A hundred and sixty-seven years
have elapsed since Jonathan Wild
was hanged at Tyburn and the chief
incidents in his nefarious life have
been carefully transmitted from
generation to generation in the,suc-
cessive "Malefactors Registers, "
"Newgate Caleuders,' Criminal
Recorders and "Chronicles of
Crime which ingenious hacks
have complied from tho:e terribly
trustworthy authorities, the Old
Bailey Sessions papers.
