The Harp In Your Ear.

The majority of people arc not aware
perhaps that each of their ears is provided
with many stringed harp, but such is
the case. These wonderful little instru-
ments are named after their discovcrer be-
ing called the organs of Corti. Each OF
these curious ear harps is provided with
s, 700 wonderfully minute strings of vary
ing length and thickness. The larger
strings are estimated to be about one five.
thousnndth of ar inch in diameter, and,
as shown by actual measurement, are only
one two-hundredth of an inch in length.
The smaller ones aro SO inilnitcsinSlly
fine that no estimate of their thickness
(thnness) has ever been made. They arc,
however, estimated to be about one one
thousandth of an inch in length Mpsi.

"Why, you couldn't write anything

"That's not quite the sort of thing a
man would say, DEAR" he suggested
mildly.
"Oh, isn't it!' she answered, with
derision. "As it happens, a man did say
it-those very words. Do you imagine
you know how every kind of man talks
to woman when he's alone with her?'

and left the room with queenly step,
closing the door behind her with osten-

MADISON. Wis, Nov. 2S.-Speclal.-Judge
Romauzo Bum, U. s. Circuit Judge for the
Western District of Wisconsin has decided
for defendants In the case Of the Sterling

by the former April 3rd last, asking $4,000
damages and an injunction restraining de-
PENDANT from using the name "Baco euro, "
from advertising the same and from using
boxes, racks, etc, which, II was claimed were
infrngements upon those used by mo to
bac" Judge Bum decides for defendants
on the ground that no marked similarity
exists, that no Infringement has been made
and tbal"Baco Curo"by its injunction, Don't
Stop Tobacco shows itself to be entirely
distinct from "No-to. bac," in that the latter
requires the patient to cease using tobacco
when commencing the remedy. By the
terms of the order the compliments bill is
dismissed and costs are taxed in favor OF
defendant. The case has excited especial
interest inasmuch as it is the first Of like
character ever heard in the Wisconsin Fed
eral courts and the decision, it is believed,
Will govern in all similar cases, Judge Bum
being noted as an able jnrist both In Wis

lCOMMuNICATED. |

We have been looking for an account In
our valued weekly, THE CLARION, of the
pleasant Fern Social" of the 9Th, 9Th and
9TH inst, held by the Kings Daughters of
Trinity Reformed church, 1t was one of
the most pleasant and successful socias they
have held We were made to feel that united
effort and unanimity of purpose were the
most prominent feature of the occasion. We
cannot commend one department more than
another, for all were well and zealously
managed The Art Gallery was moot excel.
lently and extensively arranged and reflected
credit on those who had it in charge. The
oysters were fine and the supper bountful as
usual. The Fish Pond was literally patron
lied, and as luck and laziness, the usual
accompaniment to fishing, were absent, this
pond was literally and satisfactorily emptied
and it was with some surprise that it could
be still further used fora series of illustrated
sermons. The free entertainments were fine
and much enjoyed and they all reveal ingen-
uity and ability, the 1.-TWO Cousins being
worthy of honorable mention.

GRACEIIAM ITEMS.

Graceham never was known to be so dry
and yet Pollytown is only half mile off. The
number Of wells that are quite dry and others
almost so, forebode serious situation with
winter on hand.
We are sorry to note that early AFTER his
sale, Mr.. John A. Dent and family will leave
US and move to Belle Haven, Accomac Co,
Va. This is a town on the western shore Of
the peninsula of old Virginia adjoining the
eastern shore of Maryland. We wish them
success in their new home.
The Christmas Holidays are fast approach
ing tut for years it is scarcely noticeable un-
til it is at the door, because Of lack Of the Old
time preparations for lis celebration. Our
Sunday School is preparing an interesting
exercise entitled The Story Of the Christ"
This exercise will be given on Christmas
night (25th) at O'Clock. The decoration of
the interior of the church will be about the
usual plan, principally trees. The public
are cordially INVITED TO participate IN all our
services.
Merry Christmas.
A SUGGESTION We have the following
proposition to make to our people concerning
a matter in which the entire town is intercs
ted 1t is desirable that the debt resting up
on our Town Hall be reduced or at least that
the fixed charges be lifted, as far as may be,
from the fund raised by taxation that it may
be used for other purposes.
We suggest a course OF lectures on familiar
topics, in the Town Hall, by our own people
a reasonable charge for admission to be made,
the gross proceeds to be applied to the Town
Hall debt We believe that we would be able
to name ten of our own people, including
ladies, who could fl the Town Hall ten
evenings, were they to agree to give their
careful attention to the subject chosen and
write it out at sufficient length to occupy,
say, one hour in its delivery. Were that con-
sdered too brief all entertainment, there
might be two set for one evening.
We have in our minds eye round dozen,
four ladies and eight gentlemen, every one of
them capable of entertaining an audience,
should they fully determine to devote them.
selves to the task and every one of whom
could pack the house"
1t would not only be decided innovation
but would be entertaining, instructive and
profitable.
