The Story of a Sun Dial.

In the first part of the last century
an Irish emigrant named Porter set
tied near Philadelphia, says the Phil
adelphia Times. Among his sons
was one named Andrew, whom he
tried to make into farmer, and then,
like his brothers, into a carpenter.
But Andrew would have nothing to
do with the plow or the plane. He
hid in corners poring over some math-
ematical books that had come into his
possession.
One day he found the design Of a
sun-dial in one Of them, and resolved
to make one. He walked eight miles
to soapstone quarry, found slab
and carried it home on his back. Full
Of zeal, he went to his brothers shop,
and used their saws and chisels in his
work. When they came home in the
evening the dial was finished. An
drew was triumphant, but every tool
in the shop was nearly or quite ruined.
They drove him into the street in a
fury of anger and contempt.
His father, now convinced that he
was an idle, good-for-nothing, who
would never fully earn his bread, babe
him go and fit himself for school
teaching, which he called the 'lazy
mans work.
Andrew gave himself to hard study
for the summer, and then went to the
astronomer, David Rittenhouse, and
asked him to lend him book on comic
sections.
SHow long have you studied mathe-
matics?' demanded the great man.
'Three months.
"And what do you know of comic
sections?" Rittenhouse rejoined, with
whitening contempt.
But after asking the boy a few
questions he not only lent him the
book but advised him not to waste
his time in the country, but go to
Philadelphia and open mathematical
school.
This poor farm boy was afterward
Gen. Andrew Porter, an officer in the
war of the revolution, and an authori-
ty on mathematical science in the
young republic.
There are plenty of farm boys now
who dislike farm work. It wouldn't t
be wise to infer because of this indo-
lent disposition they are Andrew Por-
ters in embryo. An easy basis for
judgment is to note the use they
make Of their idle time. Do they give
it to comic sections or to base ball? q

Deafness Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion Of the ear. There is only one
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an intlam-
cd condition of the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube gets ir rlamed you have
a ruInbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
unless the inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be DESTROYED forever; nine cases out of ten aIe
caused by catarrah, which is nothing but an in
lamcd condition Of the Eucous surfaces.
