A Vast Fortune.

Eighty million dollars in bills
were received at Atlanta a day or
two ago, the mammoth package OF
money filling five large dry goods
boxes and making in all more than
a dray load. None of the bills
was current, however, as they rep
resent "nothing in Gods earth
now and naught in the waters be-
low it." They were confederate
bills of the rarest type. The huge
piles of genuine confederate money
was shipped from Richmond, Va,
the former capital of the confed-
eracy, and is now the property OF
Charles D. Barker, 80 South Fourth
street, Atlanta. The money IS OF
every denomination issued by the
departed nation, and in the big col
lection are bills of the rarest type.
There are bills issued during every
wear of the war. Thousands OF
them are very valuable as relics,
but the great number of them MIR.
Barker has on hand will make
them so common as to bring but
little on the market. This $SO,OOO,-
600 of confederate money has been
all along supposed to have been
DESTROYED. This is undoubtedly
the largest lot of confederate
money in the world.-Savannah

sheep are tall, with white wool in

sheep are more like those of Leices-

and more fitted for life in the
marshes. They have, perhaps, the
most intelligent faces of any sheep

dealers in the country.
MIR. Frank Haven is in Gothenburg
making "a careful study of the situation
with view to manufacturing starch.
A ,hemical analysis of the water
shows it eminently satisfactory.
Cheap power Is attracting manu-

Fabricated in Forty Hours After the
shearipg OF the Sheep.
'late In the afternoon of one OF
the last days of May in the year '76,
when / Mrs. Eunice Locke Richards
was few months short OF Is years
old, notice came to Townsend, Mass,
where my father used to live, that
fifteen soldiers were wanted.
1.-The training band was instantly
called out and my brother that was
next older than | was one that was
selected. He did not return till late
at night, when we were all in bed.
When ! rose in the morning | found
my mother in tears, who informed me
that my brother John was to march
next day after tomorrow at sunrise.
Ny father was in Boston in the Massa-
chusetts assembly.
Mother said that though John
was supplied with summer clothes he
must suffer for winter garments.
There was at this time no stores and
nc ;.riicles to be had, except such as
eaul family could make itself The
sigl' 81 mothers tears always brought
all The hidden strength of body and
mind into action. | instantly asked
what garment was needed. She re-
piled, 'PantaloOns. oh, If that is
all said !, we will weave and spin

said mother, the wool Is on the

the pasture.

but you can't spin and weave it
in SO short time.
Z" Il am certain we can, mother.
"'IIow can you weave it? There
is long web of linen in the loom
by this time the sound of the
sheep made me quicken my steps
toward the yard. | requested my
sister to bring the wheel and cards
while | went for the wool. / went to
the yard with my brother and secured
Il white sheep, from which l sheared

rest of her fleece. | sent the wool
with my little sister, and Luther ran
for black sheep and held her while
cut wool off for my filling and half
the warp, and then we allowed her
to go with the remaining coarse part
of the fleece.
The rest of the narrative the
writer would abridge by saying that
the wool thus obtained was duly
cardcd, spun, washed, sized and dried.
A loom was found few doors off,
the web got in and was woven, the
cloth prepared, cut and made two or

Florida's she'll Mounds.

A ships officer, who has spent much
time on the st. Johns river, Florida,
thinks that he has solved the prob
lem as to the origin OF the she'll
mounds that occur along that stream.
The river twists about in an extra =
ordinary way, so that in many places
the view along the water extends for
only few rods, but he finds that "a
tall object or the smoke of Il fire
shown from the top OF one OF these
mounds could be seen from those
next below and above, and he be-
lieves these eminences we're Indian

Royal Baking Powder
Is Absolutely Pure

N/HlLE there are so many alum baking pow
w ders in the market, the use of which all
physicians decide render the food unwhoesome
and liable to produce dyspepsia and other
ailments, housekeepers should exercise the ut
most care to prevent any powder but the Royal
from being brought into their Kitchens
In the use of Royal there is an absolute
certainty of pure and wholesome food.
The official State ,Chemists report: The
Royal Baking Powder does not contain am
monia, alum, lime, nor any injurious ingre-
dients. 1t is absolutely pure and wholesome.
The Government reports show all other
baking powders to contain impurities.
In the use of any baking powder but Royal
there is uncertainty if not actual danger.
1t is unwise to take chances in matters of
life and health.

HIGH-PRlCED EXPERIENCE.

Best, But Paid for His Learning.

He Knew That the Modest Hat Was
Best, But Paid for His Learning.
Experience, said young Mr.. Rush
er, "is the teacher that | best like to
pay"
That was several weeks ago.
Last Wednesday Mrs. Rusher went
down town to buy hat, says the
Detroit Free Press. Like the dutiful
little wife that she is, she went
around to her husbands Office and
asked for an expression OF his taste.
Come" said he, well look at
some of the windows and I'll show
you what like
BY and by they stood where a sign
announced that paris bonnets" and
London hats" were on sale. The
young married pair looked over the
display.
Il want a nice hat" said Mrs.
Rusher, but not an expensive one.
She pointed to pretty thing with
profusion of red flowers and some
rich-lOoking trimming on it.
In her innermost soul she thought
it a cheap-lOOking affair, but for the
sake Of economy she would fOrego a
better one. In his innermOst soul he
thought it horribly extravagant and
then he said:
Don't you think, dear, that that
is a triie loud for one of your deli
| cate senses and refined appearance?f
She murmured something o
thanks.
Yes" he went on, Il must say
that don't like hat of that sort
Now, over thcre-that big one with
the phImcs and one red rosc-thcrc's
simplicity for you"
In his inncrmost heart he fell
mean, for in reality the hat looked
cheap to him. Mrs. Rushcr only
said:
Very we'll, dear, your taste shall
prevail"
And so they parted, Mrs. Rusher
bound for her millincr's; Mr. Rusher
speedily and gaiIy headed for his
| Office.
1t was two weeks before he got the
bill. In the meantime he had come
! to like the hat immensely. Mrs.
Rusher seemed delighted with it.
Then the young husband found
/ little letter awaiting him at the office.
