SOMETHING THAT PAYS.

The wi.lpawake farmer is always
on thu lockout for something that
IL profitable. In his investigation
he often happens across some spe-
ciaity that pays fair dividends, hut
circumstances do not permit him
to engage in it ut the time.
In these depressed times tits
verytlifficult to find n specially
that pays fair profit, although the
farmer has II broad field from which
to- select.
One of the most profitable spe-
cialties In which farmer with
considerabl grazing land can en-
gage, is raising cows. Good milch
COWS bring all the way from $25 to
$50, while an eighteen-months old
heifer can be bought for $l2 or $l5.
II can lie readily seen that by buy
ing II drove Of heifers now and
breeding them, one year hence the
purchaser can double and perhaps
treble his money, while his farm
would not be one whit the worse
of. It is not said that there Will
be money in it four years hence, but
tits claimed that there is money
in II at the present time, and there
will continue to be until too many
enterprising farmers raise heifers
for COWS. But who ever heard OF a
number one mich cow being a
drug on the market? Besides,
should the farmer not be able to
dispose-of his cows Immediately on
becoming fresh, he can well afford
to Keep them few weeks. A Anum'
btr one fresh COW always pays her
way, whjchIs more than can DC
paid 0f some other animals.

yasar,e, af,he imagination.

Nothing car lie more singular than
the vagaries of the Imagination. Hay
wood, in his Hierarchy" tells of a
young man who fancied that he was
dead, and urged his friends to bury
him. By the advice Of a physician
they consented. He was laid upon q
bier, and carried upon the shoulders
Of four men to the church, when some
of them. up to the business, stopped
the procession. and inquired who II
was that they were about to inter
They were told.
"Ay, and very good Job II is: Tor
the world is wei. rid of such a bao
and vicious character. He would soUn-
or or later have come to tile gallows.
The wonld.Ls dead man, hearing
this. popped his head w. and saio
that they ought to be ashemed of them
selves in thus traducing his fair fame
and II he we're alive he would thrash
them soundly fer their irsolence But
they proceeded to utter tho most out,

until he fell down exhausted. He was
put to bed. and the vioitn' exercise he
had taken promoted profuse pergpira-
Ion, and he ultimately recovered.
Then there IS the case OF q watch
maker, related by Pintel, who insist
ed that he had been guillotined, and
another head had been by mistake put
ON his shoulders instead Of his own.

say. mine were extremely Land-

Renevenuto Cellini, the celebrated
Florentine artist, In Ais own life
writes: "The governor Of the castle
has q periodical disorder. One time
he copceited himself metamorphosed
into q pitcher Of oil; another time he
thought himself a frog. and began to
leap as such: At length he thought
himself bat. and when he went to
walk he made Just such noises as bats
do: he likewise used his hands and

thing is remarkable; that the writer,

poehopdricies, should himself state

some Valuable Woods.

Many of the finest woods in exist.
ence are yet unknown, CT only slightly
known, to the manufacturers Of wood
In the civilized world. The woods OF
Central and South America are, per-
haps, the most remarkable as we'll as
the least known. In the yet untouch-
ed forests Of this continent are many
woods. far finer than any of those now
In use, These woods range from pure
white to Jet black in color, and many
Of them are most beautifully marked
and veined. Some of them are SO hard
that they turn the edges of axes,
.chisels, and ether tools. while the
band saw only cuts them slowly. In
the Columbian Exposition there were
many displays of little known woods,
and the finest OF them were those from
the Argentine Republic. Brazil and
other South American countries. Some
of these Southern woods yielded to the
teeth of the band saw not the .ordin-
airy sawdust. but fine powder, fine as
the finest flour, go hard were the
