Our Lengtheninr DAYS.

A day is the name for the time in
which the earth rotates once and
month for the time in which the
moon revolves once, says Professor
George H. Darwin in The Atlantic.
Then, since tidal friction retards the
earth S rotation and the moons rev.
olution, we may state that the day
and the month are now lengthening
at different rates which are calcula-
BILE, although the absolute rates in
time are unknown. 1t will suffice
for general comprehension of the
problem to know that the present
rate Of increase of the day is much
more rapid than that of the month,
and that this will hold good in the
future. Thus the number of rota-
tons of the earth in the interval
comprised in one revolution Of the
moon diminishes, or, in other words,
the numberof days in the month di-
FINISHES, although the length of each
day increases SO rapidly that the
month itself is longer than at pres
ent. For example, when the day shall
be equal in length to two of our actu-
al days the month may be as long as
81 of our days and the earth will
spin round only about 18 times in
the month.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

This remedy is intended especially
for coughs, colds, Group, whooping
cough and influenza. 1t has become
famous for its cures of these diseases,
over a large portion of the civilized
world. The most f1attering testimoni-
ais have been received, giving accounts
of its good works; of the aggrivating
and persistant coughs it has cured; of
severe colds that have yielded prompt
ly to its soothing effects, and of the
dangerous cases of Group it has cured,
often saving the life of the child. The
extensive useof it for whooping cough
has shown that it robs the disease of
all dangerous consequences Ssld by

THE COLONIES LOVE.
How He Proved 1t to the Woman Who
Had Rejected Him.


How He Proved It to the Woman Who
Had Rejected Him.
No woman, said the somewhat
acrid lady, should marry until she
is sure the man who asks her to do
so really loves her. And she pro-
ceeded gloomily, "It is very hard to
be sure of that
Perhaps so,' replied the Ken
lucky lady, 'but was absolutely
sure before I married.
II don't see how you could be. 1t
SO often happens that people do not
know their own minds
'sThere was no room for doubt in
this case. Wewere out sleigh riding
the evening the colonel proposed to
me. I had refused him several times
before, and I told him then that I
would always esteem him as
friend. We heard the jingle of bells
behind us. The colonel's horse,
thoroughbred of which he was very
proud, quickened its pace at the
sound. The colonel looked around
and exclaimed: Here's the chance
I've been waiting for. That's Judge
Peabody behind us. He has been
Dragging about that new horse of
his for the last six weeks, but when
ever l tried to get him right down to
race he has lodged out of it some
how without acknowledging that
this horse could beat him.
"The colonel slowed up so as to
let the judge overtake him. The
judge didn't dare refuse the chal-
lenge because he had a girl with
him. He wouldn't allow himself to
be Inundated in her eyes. AS soon
as the two sleighs were even the
colonel gave our horses cut with
the whip, and away we went, the
animals with necks eagerly extend
ed and the people leaning over the
dashboards trying to help them
along. For few seconds the horses
feet thumped on the road in perfect
rhythm, then we began to move
ahead. The village was about a mile
distant, and the colonel leaned out,
turned and shouted:
Judge, Ill see you at the post
office!'
'"The judge gave his horse blow
with the whip, but he was already
using all the speed he had. I turned
around, half out of the sleigh, to
keep a lookout. The sleigh struck
a bowlder and pitched me out into a
snowdrift. WASN'T hurt, and l gave
thanks when saw the sleigh had
not wholly overturned and was
speeding on its way to the postoffice,
still several lengths ahead of the
judge. Imagine my establishment
when I saw the colonel slow up, let
the judge pass him and turn
around
"Hewas coming back after you?"
suggested one of the listeners.
That's exactly what he was do
ing, and I concluded then and there
that when Kentucky gentleman
was willing to lose horse race fol
my sake there wasn't any excuse for
doubling his affection. Washing

All last week a traveller who might
have taken shelter here for the night,
conld have truthfully named Gray
the SIN oky city. Every eve there was
a number of bonfires (there being six
at one time) in the city, these the de-
stroyers of last years weed patches.
This is an unfavorable emblem and
our enterprising citizens should see
that there are few if any of these
nuisances next year.
James luton has plowed up the
road formerly leading into east Gray,
therefore all teamsters unless wishing
to break the right road which runs
close to the renee all the way should
turn at the corner. We are in hopes
however that the proper road will be
broken open. 1t follows the fence
east to line with the street then
turns directly south, entering Gray
near Fl. 3. Shelley's residence.
But you ought to see our creamery
go. Everything works to perfection
and we're now running at full blast.
The creamery which has been busy
the past week will make their first
shipment Of butter Wednesday.
This is just the beginning of the maxi
ing Of a record. Soon Gray creamery
butter will be known the world over
and our plant will be an attraction
for even the rulers of the old world.
Now bring in your milk.
/ While switching here Saturday
evening there occurred quite a serious
accident. One OF the passengers in
side the coach happened to have his
hand between the backs Of two seats
which previously had been turned to-
gether. When the engine moved
backward to couple to the coaches,
the jar was such as to injure the hand
considerably. Our train has always
shown such carefulness in their
movements as to make such an acct
dent seem impossible. Accidents
will happen with even the most eX-
perienced, and surely this is the fault
no one.

With suitable methods and Americans

all the ores that can be used at furnaces

will find there the ores that it now
mines in Spain and Sweden. The Span
ish ores are giving out and those Of
Sweden are expensive. We made esti-
mates that under proper conditions
these rich ores could be mined and de-
livered in vessels at the Cuban ports
at not far from forty cents a ton
There is no royalty, ais the mines are
all owned by the companies operating
them, and with reasonable ocean
freights these ores would drive any
Spanish or Swedish ores from the
