Some Anecdotes of Beecher.

One April / Mr. BeechCr found in his
morning mail letter containing only
the words April Fool. Well Well!'' he
said: Il have received many a letter
where a man forgot 10 sign his name;
! tins Is the first time | ever knew OF
| writer signing his name and forgetting
TO write letter.
After l took the edtorshp CT the
Christian Union / urged Mr.. Beecher TO
give his views on pubic question through
ITS columns. AS it is now" / SAID, amy
| interviewer who comes TO you gets
column; and the public Is as apt 10 get
your views III any other paper as IN your
own" Yes" said he, Il am like the
| town pump: any one who will come and
work the handle can carry off Dall full
Of water
On one occasion l argued for Calvinism
that it had produced speniid characters.
Yes" Mr.. Beecher replied, "Calvinism
makes few good men and destroys many
mediocre men. 1t IS like Il churn; 1t
makes good butter. but it throws away
4 lot OF buttermilk."
Charles Sumner in the Senate and Thad-
deus Stevens in the House were pressing
the reconstruction measures for forcing
universal suffrage in the South. In con
versation with Mr.. Beecher thus diagnosed
the situation: The radicals are trying
to drive the wedge into the log butt end
foremost; they will only split their
beetle" They did: they solidified the
South and divided the Republican party.
If he had been preaching on reconstruc-
ton the figure would have flashed on
him then. and he would have gwen it to
his congregation from the pulpit.
Mr.. Beecher was denouncing the NEON
sstency of church members; stopped;
imagined an interlocutor calling HIM to
account for exposing the sins OF church
members before the world: and thus re
Piled do you not suppose the world
knows them better than l do? The world
sees this church member IN Wall Street,
as greedy, as rapaclous, as eager, as I'M
scruDuous as his companions. He say
to himself. Is that Christianity? I will
go to church next Sunday and see what
the minister says about this. He goes;
and what is the minister saying?' In
stantly Mr.. Beecher folded his arms upon
his breast, held an imaginary cat purrng
comfortably there as he stroked It with
the other hand. and continued: The
minister is saying, Poor Pussy. Poor
Pussy, Poor Pussy" NJ. Beecher made
his congregation laugh, not of set pur-
pose and never for the sake of the laugh,
but because he himself saw. and made
them see. those incongruities which are
the essence of humor and often the most
powerful of arguments.-Rey. Lyman Alb

In ordering the telephones removed
from its Office and premises in Gastonls,
the Southern Railway deals harshly with
those of its local patrons who are telc-
phone ubscribers-which designation
just about includes the entire business,
industrial. and travelling community. The
Southern virtually says to its patrons, '1f
you want to know anything get out ard
walk to our office and inquire" At 9TH
e. points the Southern uses the local
telephone service. and there appears to
an uninitated public no good reason why
ii should not keep itself IN communica-
ton with its local patrons at Gastonia.-

Women Made Strong and Happy
Mothers.
catarrh of the Pelvic Organs is a
Frequent Cause of Earrenness.
Pe-ru-na Eradicates Catarrh From
the System.

ITO the woman of ancient Israel not to
become mother was regarded as
n the greatest of earthly calamities.
TO become mother-more especially the
mother of strong, healthy boy was the
height of glory for the faithful woman of the
sood old Bible days. Even now, when ma
ernity is not esteemed as of yore, the
mother of healthy children is an object of
admiration, and sometimes envy, by her
neighbors. AS compared with ancient
peoples, the average American woman has
low appreciation of motherhood. There
ire, however, great many exceptions to
his statement.
The accompanying letters from grateful
women who have been made strong, healthy
md happy mothers need no added words Of
ours to make them convincing. Catarrh had
weakened and impaired their entire systems.
Peruna made them sound and well.

Farmers, Test Your Seed Corn.

Farmers, Test Your Seed Corn.
"Will your seed corn grow?" This
question every farmer should be able
to answer for himself before the corn
planting season arrives. The question
is very imperative this year, because
there is every indication that great
deal of the cribbed corn OF last years
crop, which furnishes the greater part
Of the seed corn planted, will not ger
inmate this spring. The conditions
during the past winter have been very
dufavorable for the maintenance of
vitality of seed corn; the late matur-
ity, the sappy condition at husking
time, with consequent increased mois
ture in the cribbed corn, has made 1t
more susceptible to the past winters
freezing and the result is very large
per cent of corn low in vitality. Corn
husked early and stored carefully
where 1t became thoroughly dry be-
fore cold weather is not damaged and
will terminate vigorously, from the re-
suits of number of careful tests
made in our terminating laboratories.
On the other hand, samples taken
from covered cribs this spring have
given very low per cents of vitality. In
some cases only the root part of the
germ was killed; in others the root
terminated while the stalk was dead
and in the majority of cases the kerr
nels sent forth very slow-growing
weak sprouts. Frequently 1t has been
found that the kernels on one side Of
an ear would grow while on the other
side they would not. 1t is very neces-
sary therefore, for the farmers who
are depending upon their cribbed corn
for seed, to make sure that their seed
when planted will sprout at least 81
times out of 100 In a very vigorous
manner. To make test of the germin-
ating power of youg corn, take kernels
from near the butt and tip, and middle
OF the ear from opposite sides as near
ly as possible. These kernels should
10 tohSu liOlu at lSdoI ~ cars, 81 luo
composite sample will be fair one OF
all the corn saved for seed. These
kernels may then be sprouted by
planting them in large dinner plate
filled with moist sand, planting the
kernels tip downwards and covering
the sand with a smaller inverted plate.
This germinator should then be placed
in a warm room and kept moist. At
the end OF three or four days, the ker'
nels should have sprouted enough to
make the counts of those terminated
and thus to determine the per cent Of
vitality. Another very simple way to
test seed for vitality Is to wrap the
kernels in a moist newspaper and
place in cigar-box or some closed re-
ceptacle that does not exclude all the
air, and set In warm room. Then
If 50 per cent of the kernels sprout
quickly and vigorously the corn is
safe to plant, otherwise the stand of
corn planted from such seed will be
poor and uneven. Now is the time to
test your seed corn, as planting time
is nearly here.-Dwight S. Dalbey, Hi.

Heavy Rains ON Unfinished Drains.

Charles G. Elliott, in Engineering
for Land Drainage" says: During the
construction of drainage system the
work is often hindered in the spring of
the year by heavy rains which FIJI to a
greater or less extent the trenches
which have been dug and submerge
the lines of tile which have been laid.
In the case of mains with light fall,
there is considerable risk from dirt
and silt which may be washed into the
drain and partially obstruct 1t. The
die drain may be securely closed at
The upper end, but II the water is per.
mi;ted to flow over the top Of the tile.
the drain itself being nearly empty,
tho weight Of the water passing down
through the joints until the drain is
full carries with 1t large quantity Of
earth which by reason of the lack of
current may not pass on through the
drain. The better way is to permit
the water to enter direct through the
end of the drain and fill the tile com.
pletely, letting the surplus pass on
over the top Of the drain.
