"A Little House for Old Age.

The Danish farmhouse is commonly
built In two portions, one large and
one small, to form separate dwellings.
This Is done to enable the owner to
carry out the duty custom imposes
upon him. When the farmer grows too
old or infirm to follow the plow, or
perform a share Of the work, he hands
over the farm to one Of his sons, under
an arrangement which provides for the
maintenance Of himself and his wife
during their remaining years, and the
old couple take up their quarters in the
smaller dwelling The curious feature
Of this arrangement is that if the son
sell the farm, the purchaser must take
over the duty Of supporting the old
people, who remain on. This custom
has arisen out of the isolated charac-
ter of the farms in Jutland; it has
sometimes led to the commission of
horrible crimes, the old people having
been poisoned by a new owner to save
the cost of their maintenance.

To Prognosticate storms.


By means of q delicate instrument
called the ceraunograph, Rev. Freder-
lex L. Odersbach, professor of chemis-
try in St Ignatius' College, in Cleye-
land, Ohio, is able to foretell many
hours the numerous summer storms
which come up, often on bright, warm,
clear days, with startling rapidity, and
with dire results to the small craft
along the sea coast and ON inland
waters.
The action of the ceraunograph is
simple and easily understood by any
one acquainted with an ordinary tele-
graph system with relay. The initial
action precedes the advent of the
storm from one to thirty-six hours.
AS the electric disturbance advances
the coherer is very busy, soon produc-
ing a continuous band record, while
the decoherer keeps up constant
clatter, which finally becomes deafen-
ing.

WHERE RELIGION COMES HIGH.
Some Church Pews In New York Cost
Good Deal More than q Dwelling.

Some Church Pews In New York Cost q
Good Deal More than q Dwelling.
Many readers have probably heard
of New York's famous Grace church
at Broadway and Tenth street, where
there is choir of babies" ranging
in age from 4 years up, which church
is said to be erected on land more val
liable even than that whereon st.
Paul's at London stands. Here 1t is
the custom to offer by auction all pews.
which the present owners desire to re-
fnquish, says the ST. Louis Post-Dis-
patch, and. which possibly may have
been in their family ever since the
church was built.
A few months ago pew No. 40, in
the south transept of Grace church,
was put up at auction in the New York
real estate sales rooms for the trus-
tees Of the estate of the late Henry
Ray. The bidding was started at $500
and rose rapidly to $1,000, when there
was q pause. Then some one offered
another hundred and the bidding ad-
vanced to $500, and just about to be
knocked down for this sum when
Hamilton G. King sprung another $50
and secured the pew.
On being asked If he was spending
all this money for his own religious
comforts Mr.. King stated that he had
purchased the pew for another person,
but whom he refused to state. The pew
is family" one and holds six, is up
holstered in dark red and, according
to the auctioneer, comfortable enough
to foster the highest forms Of religious
charity. The pews in Grace church.
with few excePtions, are owned by
those who occupy them, and when one
does find its way into the market 1t
is eagerly purchased by rich parish
toner's.
One Of the most fashionable
churches in New York is st. Bartholo-
news, in Madison avenue. This Is
known as "The Vanderbilts' church, y
for here the millionaires of that name
worship. Pews in st. Bartholomew's
can often be rented, but now seldom
purchased, most of the pews being
owned by residents Of Millionaire
row." in Fifth avenue. Occasionally,
however, a pew in this church has
come under the hammer, when it has
brought a considerable sum of money
as much as $1,000 having been paid for
six "sittings" near the pulpit.
In the Catholic cathedral, close by
pews are also sold at auction, at times
and, owing to the magnificent choir
which this church supports, bring
small fortunes.

Trade with France Big.

There is probably no American in
dustry better exploited abroad than
that of agricultural implements and
machinery. AS a consequence there is
an important foreign trade in these
products.
OF the $1s,OO0,OOO worth of farming
implements exported from the United
States in 1902 $9,125.OO0 was sent to
Europe. OF this 100000 was re-
ceived In France. German and Eng
lish machines are used, as are also
those of French manufacture, but the
American machines hold the field In
France because they are greatly ap-
preciated by the French farmer on ac-
count Of their efficiency, their lightness
and their reasonable most. In a coun-
try which in 1901 had 35,5OO,OO0 acres
of wheat and other cereals and 2S,500,-
600 acres of grass and other forage un-
der cultivation, whose grain crop was
valued at s575,OO0,0OO and the other
crops at $581, 100000, there must be a
favorable field for the sale of agricul-
tural machinery.
Our consul at Havre, France Mr.
Thackera, who furnishes this informa-
ton, advises the manufacturer who de-
sires to open up a trade in France in
these products to go himself or to send
a capable representative. One speaking
French would be better, he says, but it
is not essential. He should first visit
Paris and study carefully the situa-
ton in that city, and then go to the
principal cities of the departments in
which the agricultural centers are loca
