"Cotton is king" no longer, but it
holds the next place to corn in the
valuation of American crops. The
Census Office finds that the value of
the cotton crop for 1902 was about
FIVE hundred millions. Corn is second
and wheat third. The value of the
raw cotton exports last year was
two hundred and ninety millions,
giving that article the first place in
value in United States exports.

American Invasion.

The american invasion" has
Spread to the Holy Land. Last sum
mer an enterprising citizen of the
United States imported the first
reaper and set it to cutting grain in
the fields of Palestine. Then a little
later a steam thresher, brought all
the way from Indiana, was heard
and created great excitement among
the native farmers. They feared it
at first, then concluded it was a de-
vice of the evil one and tried to de-
stroy it. But failing in this attempt,
they were at length convinced of the
many advantages of the Yankee no.
ton over the old way oftreading out
grain. The American windmill fol
lowed the thresher and about month
ago a -four mill, with oil motor en-
CINE complete, from Indianapolis, be-
gan grinding wheat in Lebanon.
The process may be slow, but event
ually the orientals will exchange
their antiquated ways and utensils
for the American modes and machin-
cry that will do their agricultural
and other work, more of it, and more
cheaply than it can be done now.
With these changes will come some
thing of the American hustle that
will astonish the Bourbons of the
eastern lands and make them think
that the world does move, after all.

That is a worthy tribute that the
Brattleboro Phoenix pays to "the
country physician" in it's issue of

ute to the late DR.. Conland of that

the average country physician when
it says

let us not forget the helpful, self-saeri-
ficing and noble work which the all
around country physician is doing. Day
and night he must hold himself ready to
go forth in all conditions of weather.
frequently for long, trying drives over
the hills, to answer the calls for help.
Giving words of counsel and sympathy,
alternating suffering, made repository
for family secrets, seeing the seamy
side of life, struggling with the prob
lens of life and death, the reward of
the country doctor from a financial
standpoint is not commensurate with
his labor.

Reports from many parts of the
country show the labor question still
in amost unsettled state. Just what
the final outcome of the demands
made upon capital will be is quite
difficult to conjecture at present. Up
to this time certain branches oflabor
seem to be winning nearly all of its
demands, which is probably the in
centive for Others to fall into line
with the same ends in view. 1t is to
be hoped that whatever the out
come may be, agreements will be
reached whereby there will be no
clash with the authorities and con-
sequent bloodshed and loss of life.

The Special Sense of Animals.

DR.. Werner, of Vienna, has lately
printed the results of his observations
upon the special senses of animals,
especially upon the sense of reptiles
and amphibians. He concludes that
these latter are capable of going di-
rectly toward water. which attracts
them, so to say, even at long distances.
Light acts upon them. Independently
of heat. In winter they quit warm
lairs to go to sunlight. Their sight is
generally good and is probably their
most acute sense; yet their vision is
very limited. Crocodiles cannot dis
tinguish a man at distances above ten
times their length. Fish see for only
short distances. The vision of SER
penis is poor. The boa-constrictor. for
example, can see no further than a
third of its own length. Some snakes
see no further than one-eighth of their
length. Frogs are better endowed
and see twenty times their length.
The hearing of all these animals is
even worse than their sight. Most
reptiles are deaf, especially beacon
strictors. Deaf as an adder may
represent a careful observation of our
ncestors.-Medical News.

BEFORE CHURCH OR STATE.
Oath Impsaches Loyalty To Either OF
These.

Marshall, Mich, Sept. 1.-The Rev.
DIR. p. A. Baart, rector of st. Mary's
church, of this city, in 4 sermon or
Education, said no Catholic could con-
sistently take or keep the oath of some
labor unions, and mentioned particu-
larly the Typographical union, part
of whose oath he quoted as follows:
II hereby solemnly ard sincerely
swear that my fidelity to the typo
graphical union and my duty to the
members thereof, shall in no sense be
interfercd with by any allegiance that
l may now or hereafter owe to any
other organization, social, political or
religious"
Father Baar: said this oath placed
the union before the church and before
the state and distinctly impeachcd the
loyalty and Cathoiicity of those who
take such oath. Possibly the lead
ers may not have realized the full
force of the words they used in their
oath, he said, but whether they did or
not, every patriotic citizen and every
sincere, consistent Catholic should de
mand that such an oath sc modified
and that the Objectiona bic clause be
cut out.

HIS CENT CAME BACK.
Cost Him So to Regain His Pocket Piece
After Six Years Absence.


Take an ordinary copper cent piece.
stamp it with a private mark, put it
into circulation and what are the
chances that you will ever see it again?
There is one man who says that he
tried the trick and succeeded at it. He
is 4 business man, who refuses to allow
his name to be used in print about the
story, but he tells the tale to many of
his friends, and he YOuches for its
truth.
In 1894. he says, he found a cent
piece dated 1898, in the restaurant of
the Lafayette Hotel. He pocketed it
for luck, and as a memento of jolly
little dinner scratched his initials on it
just over the feathered head, while on
the cheek he added those of the hotel.
Until 1896 he treasured the coin. then
drew it out of his pocket with hand
full of other change. and, before he real
lied it, the cent piece had gone the
mysterious way of all money.
a year ago he CHANGED, being of a
curious turn of mind, to fall into con-
versation one evening with a profess
sional beggar at Broad and Chestnut
streets. He upbraided the man for get
ting so much money for nothing.
"Oh," said the beggar, Il don't get so
much. That's all I've got in the last
hour" and he held up cent piece.
At that moment the electric light fell
upon the coin, and the business man, to
his amazement, caught sight of the let
tiers III. L." on the cheek of the face.
He took the coin and examined it more
closely. Sure enough, there We're his
own initials just above the feathers
where he had placed them half dozen
| years before.
At once his prejudice against begging
vanished.
I'll give you a dollar for that coinr'
! he cried.
The beggar grew wary at his eager
ness and demanded So. Needless to
say he got it, and also, of course. the
cent piece has never since left the bust
ness mans watch chain.-Philadelph
