In a conference Of the Belgian As
Economical Society, NJ. Emile Guarinl,
the electrician, stated that there is a
permanent or constant current of cleo
tricity in the crust of the earth from
northwest to southeast, and lie as
cribes it to the electric induction of
the sun on the earth as it rotates.
This constant current is subject to the
variations from different causes--for
example, auroras, which are observed,
and sometimes interfere with the work
ing Of telegraphs. As the earth turns
from west to east the permanent earth
current he signals has a similar di-
rection. Amrcre contended that earth
currents produced .he deviation of the
compass needle, and NJ. Guarini ap-
proves Of this hypothesis. The earth
currents, he thinks, are alco useful in
decomposed chemical products of the
soil to form others mora assimilable
by plants.-PhiladeInh Ledger.

been given description of the stolen
horse it is pretty difficult for the thief
to escape, for he must pass out of the

not a comparison to what con-
fronted Corvallis man while up
near Bellfountain, Wednesday.
He was a-wheel, and as he neared
an old swamp OF considerable size,
he noticed in the road aheada band
of what he thought were pigs.
Drawing nearer, he discovered to
his horror that they were skunks,
and there were 13 of them. There
was deep underb1 ush on either side
of the road, 13 skunks in the mid
die of the road, and the shades of
evening falling fast. The man did
some lively thinking and then let a
yell,-but alas! Instead of taking
to their heels, the 13 black kittens
showed fight and came on, stiff
legged and threatening. The man
a-wheel yelled again, and yet again
but on came the band. Finally, a
happy thought struck him, and
clapping his hands he yelled, "sick
'em'' at the top of his voice. That
settled it. The skunks turned tail,
and fed to the brush, and without
stopping to look back or get full
breath, the wheelman pulled into
Corvallis about nine O. clock, thank
full to find that he was still in "good
odor" in society.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned.

The average man does not save to exceed
ten per cent. of his earnings. He must spend
nine dollars in living expenses for every
dollar saved. That being the case he can
not be too careful about unnecessary ex-
penses. Very often few cents properly in
vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on. 1t is
