Augustus a China Patron.

Augustus the Strong of Saxony was
a great lover of china, and his belief in
the transmutation of metals into gold
was accidentally the cause of the dis
covery of the celebrated Dresden ware.
Any one fortunate enough to be the
possessor of a piece of this old china
will invariably find his initials, A. X,
on the back of it. An apothecary's lad
by the name of Bottinger had, it is
said, composed tincture that was
supposed to be capable of being trans
formed into gold. So successful an al
chemist was by order of Augustus
placed under lock and key, but, unlike
most prisoners, with a laboratory at
his disposal This restraint almost de-
prived the lad of his reason, and ac-
cordingly he was removed to Dresden
and allowed a certain liberty. 1t was
here while pursuing his experiments
that Bottinger discovered the Nielsen
porcelain, commonly called Dresden
china, which to Augustus was as vel
come as if the youth had been success
full in transmitting gold, for he had ex
pended large sums in what is known
as the Japan palace. Many workmen
were engaged from Delft to work the
new ware, and in 1710 the manufacture
of Nielsen began the supply of the de-
mand which soon became European.

In China when house is to be re-
paired wonderful forethought is neces-
sary. The evil spirits which are sup
posed to occupy each dwelling that
mortals have inhabited cause the car
penter no end of trouble and no trifing
expense. First an astrologer must be
consulted with regard to the most
lucky day for beginning the work.
Then a square suspended from the
ridge beam is a notification to the spir-
its of darkness that their dwelling
place is to be disturbed, wherefore the
square thing for them to do is to move
out quietly and peacefully. Next the
carpenters make offerings to these I'M
seen residents. These gifts seem to
say, IF you please, spirits of dark
ness, accept this bride and speedily
take your fight Next the neighbors
must be warned that these evil infiu-
ences are about to be turned loose per-
haps to seek shelter under a neighbour
ing roof. Every house on that street
receives notice that upon a certain
day and hour repairs are to begin on
the dwelling of All Sin. Each house

There was a pause before the last
word SO significant it made my lady
gasp. She turned red and white, star
ing helplessly from Grierson to the
woman and only by a strong compul-
sion overcoming her impulse to run
away.
1t was great relief to see Philip
Darcy approaching- she almost ran to
meet him, question in her eyes. He
answered it with reassuring glance
and turned to the pair, who stood ey-
ing each other uncertainty and in si-
lence saying as he stood in front of
them:
II think, Clorinda, it will be best on
all accounts for you to announce your
engagement to Grierson. Your scru-
pies against it before you are out of
mourning, of course, do you credit,
but people down here are used to see

their weeds. And nobody really knows

difference. I have just been telling
Uncle Jack how the case stands
"Does he agree with your Grierson

Philip laughed. Uncle Jack, like all
the rest of us, is amenable to the logic
of accomplished facts" he said. but

Elinor was going to marry me early in

Mrs. Clorinda Markle, relict of the
late Solomon, was not without sense
of humor She held out her hand to
my lady, saying with a frank smile:

Clorinda tried to speak, to say some
thing lightly fIippant, but her lips trem-
bled and a troublesome lump rose in
her throat. She took Grierson's nerve
less arm and walked away, her head
high, but her eyes dim behind her veil.
Darcy looked after the pair compass
sionately. saying, @she is too good for
him.
'sBut she doesn't think so. Let US

Dairy Talk Of Today

A milk sheet should be in every
barn and the cows tested regularly
and the mixers made known Of the
results. All these things have a tend
ency toward interesting them in their
work and are productive of better re-
suits.
The milk Herd.
The time has come for all dairymen
to look well to their herds to see that
they are composed Of animals of con-
stitution, and to that end production
must be placed secondary, and every
thing that tends to the development of
strength and constitution must be
made of the first Importance. Given
these qualities, from good foundation
stock, performance must surely fol-
low.
Breed Tests.
The figures given here are merely
types. They do not mean that every
COW of the breed will yield milk of
this grade Some Jerseys will not go
above ST., and some Holsteins will do
better than 40 But as a whole the
tests fairly represent the fat content of
the milk of the breed: Holsteins, 1926
per cent; Ayrshires, 81; Shorthorns,
3.8; Devons, A; Jersey, 5; Guernsey, 5.

When you see man going to the
creamery with one can nowadays it's
no sign he is running one COW dairy.
That may be can of cream.
Field Weeds and Others.
The weeds are not all in the fields.
Some are in the dairies, the cows that
make us useless work, that reduce our
profits, that discount our undertakings,
so we cannot get 100 cents on the dol

But the real universal, hopeless
dairy weeds are the cows that make

the ones the thoughtless farmer owns,
feeds and milks. They are his dairy

profits and his hopes What train loads

we would all weed them out at once.

To Promote Lynching.

state Senator McLaurn, of MISSISSIPPI,
has introduced into the Legislature OF
that state II curious and novel bill Its
apparent purpose is to facilitate ana
encourage the practice of lynching. ana
his fellow members of the Legislature
are said TO be favorably disposed to-
wards 1t.
The trouble with the Mississippi
statutes in their present form, it seems.
is that they make no distinction between
lynching and any other form of murder.
Mr.. McLaurin has set out TO remedy
this defect His bill expressly defines
lynching as lynching, and not muir
der" 1t prescribes that the crime Tor
which the lynching was done shall be
admissible in evidence as point for the
defence And lastly. and of especial I'M
portancc. 1t provides that in convictions
for lynching the trial jury shall have
absolute and exclusive right TO fiN the
penalty. That this penalty in view of all
the circumstances. would not be OPP
pressiveiy heavy, is no doubt as certain
;s most things in this world.
1t is impossible. of course. for us to
lay bare the workings of the senatorial
mind in Mississippi, but to be as far
as possible. 1t is barely possible that Mr..
Mcl,aurin regards his bill as rather
deterrent than stimulative measure.
lie may conceivably argue that as long
as lynchng is rated in the law like any
other murder. there is little hope OF
ever convicting anybody of it; and that
the ends of justice will be better served
by giving the Iyncher separate CLASH
ffcation. with the chance of punishing
him for his crime, than TO hold him as u
ordinary murderer with the certainty
that the jury will acquit.
But this presumption, we admit. is 80
fantastic us NOT TO be worthy of serious
consideration. If the senator has really
reasoned in this view. his reasoning has
led linn very far astray.
To recngnize lyuching in the way
ii. which this bill would recognize it
would be, in point of fact, virtually TO
legalize ii. To make legal discrimna-
ton between NOS murder and individual
murder is 10 issue proclamation that
the law regards the former with
lenient eye. To allow the jury'the right
to impose sentence is to give this proc
lamation sinister and unmistakable
emphasis. 1t Is difficult to see why any
State legislature should feel that lynch
ing ought to be made easier, simpler, less
dangerous. 1t is easy and simple enough
now, in all conscience. Mob violence,
whether in Mississippi or Ohio. springs
up readily enough as it is The McLaurin
bill simply proposes to facilitate the
breaking ofat,lie lays, and it should re-
ceive no founfenance from a body whose
business 1T is to make them.

Municipal Ownership Abroad.

Mr. Everett w Burdett, OF Boston,
made tour OF Great Britain last sum-
mer for the purpose of studying the
problem of municipal ownership, at first
hand. He collected great deal of ma
terIal, from which he has drawn his.
own conclusions. These he tecently
stated in an address before the Boston
Commercial club, of which he is a menu
her.
His first conclusion Is that If public
ownership OF the quasi business enter
prise were as successful In Great Britain
As has ordinarily been claimed by the
advocates OF municipal ownership In this
country. one would expect to find prac-
teal unanimity OF public sentiment in
its favor, wherever !; was being prac-
ticed. But he says that this Is far from
the fact; that he discovered a decided
division of public sentiment upon the
question, manifested through the press.
