Rome Tribune: A few days agoa slick look
ing young man reached the city and engaged
board ut an uptown boarding house. He was
selling prescription which was very closely
allied to the much talked about lamp of Alad-
din He had patent right on formula that
would turn not everything into gold, but
would almost instantly, as ii by magic, trans
form pound Of sweet milk into
a pound Of solid, sweet golden butter.
Among those who wanted to buy the formula
was John II. Eastman, a prosperous farmer OF
the tlatwoods and he asked the stranger to 90
out to his farm and he would furnish him all of
the fine Jersey milk he needed for the
pertinent, but the stranger said he was
busy and that he would get the milk in
town. The next day Mr.. Eastman and several
others were on hand to see the miracle yer
formed. The performer produced a small
cburn Ii was covered with lid in which there
were two small holes. Now, gentlemen - said
lie, 81 will put into this churn two pounds of
sweet milk and will iB two moments turn that
into two pounds of nice butter" He thon poured
small quantity Of milk through the holes into
the Churn and at once began to churn 1t vigor-
Ously. This he kept up for few seconds and
then removing the lid took out two pounds of
first-class butter. Mr.. Eastman then bought
the right for the county for 800.
Mr. Eastman FASTENED home and at once
made test of his great formula. He fixed up
the ohurn and proceeded, but the butter came
not in the abundance expected He read the
formula, which was written in pencil, to see if
it was right. 1t read; Take one pint OF milk,
one pound of butter and churn for two mo-
ments." That was all 1t did not say how
much butter you would get in return, probably
the pound you put in. Mr.. Eastman saw in an
instant that he had been humbuRged and yes
terday morning bright aud early he came to
town looking for the performer. But that in
dividual had, in the language Of the period,
gone glimmerinR."
