Nest of Clock Springs.

In the Museum of Natural History at Soleure, in Switzerland, there is birds nest made entirely of steel. There are a number of clock-making shops at Soleure, and in the yards of these there are often found lying disused or broken springs of clocks. One day a clock maker noticed in a tree in his yard a birds nest of peculiar appearance. Ex- amining it, he found that pair of wag- tails had built a nest entirely of clock springs. It was more than four inches across, and perfectly comfortable for the birds. After the feathered archi- tects had reared their brood, the nest was taken to the museum, where it is preserved as a striking illustration of the skill of birds in turning their sur 1oundings to advantage in building their nests.

LET DOWN EASY.
How a Fair Guest DIvined the Governors
 Intentions.

Intentions.
 When MT. Tilden was occupying the gubernatorial chair of the state of New York and had under consideration the appointment of judge a friend of Judge Peckham, who was a candidate for the place, was urging the judges claim, and besought the assistance of d lady, who at that time happened to be a visitor at the gubernatorial mansion. Although at that time everything seemed reasonably to indicate the ap- pointment of Judge Pecllham, the lady assured her questioner that his candi- date had TO chance whatsoever. Sure enough, another man was appointed, and in the course of time it came about that Gov. Tilden learned of the surpris- ing precedence of his fair guest. He asked her how she was able to divine his intentions so clearly in regard to this particular man. Why" she said, that was not difficult. You brought him home to dinner one day and that of itself made me suspect. Then at the table you set before him your choice Johan- nisberg wine, and knew from that mo- ment that he had no chance of appoint ment. The man who has your Johan- nisberg is to be let down easy"

The flag of China is one of the gayest among ensigns. The body of the flag is pale yellow. In the upper left hand corner is a small red sun. Look ;ng in- tcntly at the sun is 8 fierce Chinese dragon. The dragons belly is bril- liant red and white. His green back is covered with stiff knobs He is stand ing on his two hind paws and the left forefoot. His feet. are fve-toed and slightly hooked. His long, fve-forked tail stretches away Tn the rear. The dragons neck is arched back. His mouth is wide open and he looks as if he were about to try to swallow the red sun.

TAKE IT AWAY"

when 1t was asserted by the gold standard advocates that the free coin age of silver would be equivalent to putting $9OO, ,OOO, ,OO0 into the pockets of the bankers, people were amazed at the wonderful self-denial displayed by those gentlemen in objecting to being the recipients of such a gratuity. They not only object to having the people bestow upon them as a gift $9O0,OO0,0OO of their earnings, but they are willing to spend and are spending a large amount of what they already have to prevent the people from thus yielding up their substance.
 It seems, however, that the truth Alas not all been told. The New York World has discovered that the first es- innate was entirely too small and says that the sum which would actually be donated by the people to the bankers, by free coinage of silver, Is 5000, ,000,- 900.
 It would not be surprising after this announcement if the inhabitants of Wall street should rise in open rebel lion against being forced to take this amount of money and care for it. Who could blame them if they should erect Qualifications and provide other means of defense?
 Think what it would be to these al- ready overworked and poorly paid toil- CTS for humanity to have the very people they are trying to help finan- cially and lead in the pathway of pa triotism and good citizenship, over whelm them with five billion of dol lars dn addition to what they have. It is cruel. It is inhuman. What could they do with such a sum? It would be almost impossible to invest it proftably.
 Let it never be said of the Ameri- can people that they have been the op- pressors of the over-burdened, over worked millionaire
 When the people finally realize the enormity of the injustice which they are about to precipitate upon the money owners of the country they will doubtless relent and no more will be heard of the free coinage of silver. Ii might, however, be advisable for Wal street to provide some means of pro tecting itself against this flood oj money which it is proposed to poul upon it, in case the people will mol listen to the pleadings of reason and justice

Manufacturers of other sarsaparillas sought by every means to obtain a showing of their goods, but they were all turned away under the application of the rule forbidding the entry of patent medicines and nostrums.

ment on gold basis Chicago Trib- une, Jan. g, 1878.
 The folly of advocating the single gold standard of money must be obvi- ous to everyone not blind as a bat in daylight AChicago 9Tribune. Jan. 5,
 The purchasing power of legal tender silver coin furnishes the only proper test. The values of gold or silver as bullion are not pertinent to the issue, whether the two metals, as legal ten der, can be maintained. = Chicago Tribune, Jan g, 1878.
 In 1S73-4,as it was two years and more later discovered, the coinage of this silver dollar was forbidden and silver dollars were demonetized by law. This act, which was done se- cretly and stealthily, to the profound ignorance of those who voted for it, and of the president, who approved it, had, without the knowledge of the country, removed one of the landmarks of the government and under cover of darkness abolished the constitutional dollar, and had arbitrarily, and to the immense injury of the people, added heavily to every form of indebtedness public and private. Chicago Trib- une, February 23, 1878.
 If the government had been paying gold interest, it had that right by or iginal agreement, and ,sit may here after pay interest by the same right. The option is in the government and 1t has never been surrendered, and never will be. How often must this be repeated before the goldites will consent to accept the fact? We have had enough Shylock talk about public credit, good faith" "honor," 'sun- derstandings," expectations" and "suppositions. The surest way to kill public credit, good faith and honor" is to smash down the price of property, paralyze business, pauperize labor, bankrupt enterprise and drive the people into poverty and despair and that is precisely the role the gold yelpers are playing.-Chicago Tribune January 16, 1878.

A Pointer.

Mr.. Goodrich. a noted dairy writer,
tells Of his conversion TO the debata-
bic practice of feeding meal to cows
while in good pastures. He did not
believe it paid, but he saw so many of
the best dairymcn doing it that ne
season he concluded to try 1t against
his own convictions and in the face of
the ridicule of his neighbors. The re-
suit was, to his amazement, that at
the end of the year he was fifty
pounds of butter per COW ahead of
the previous years record, though the
meal did not much increase the flow
Of milk or its richness at the time it
was fed; but it seemed to give the
cows good staying qualities up to the
last of the season. and il is amazing
how much there is to be got out Of
the tail end Of the milking season with
good previous care. Mr.. Goodrich
says that he figured 1t out that he got
Il return Of two dollars fof every dol
lar he paid for meal that he fed while
the cows were ut pasture.-Eansas

she returned, and said that she had al.

ordered the cloak wrapped up. She

Cows drink Il large amount Of water
when they can get it; much more than
oxen or young stock, especially cows
giving much milk. Few dairymen stop
TO think that about 81 per cent OF all
milk is water, and that without the
water, no matter how well the COW be
supplied with the material to make the
solids, she cannot give the milk; that a
COW in full flow of milk requires from
ninety 10 one hundred pounds of wa
ter daily. If they did. they would see
the folly Of compelling them to drink
all this amount of water at one time.
1t is a fact that should be remembered
and considered by everyone, that all
the cows that have made phenomenal
records have been carefully watched
and watered many times in the day,
and even in the night as well.-Depver
