Modern Farming.

Thirty years ago threshing time
was one of the most strenuous occa-
sions that came to the farmers an
nual experience and was something
that was dreaded as much by the
women folks of the house as the farm
err himself, as it required two or three
days to thresh the average crop, with
Is and 20 men and as many teams
to be fed and housed, and the stacks
of fried chicken and apple pie that
disappeared during these days was
something wonderful to behold. This
is now all changed. The threshing
crew come down the road with their
whole outfit en- train; pull in along
side of the stacks and in ten minutes
are at work, and no one is surprised
If they are threshing ten bushels a
minute. The sheaves being fed auto
matically, the threshed grain runs di-
rectly into the farmers wagons, the
straw being stacked automatically,
taking away most of the laborious
and dirty part of the work of the old
times, and for the average farmer one
day cleans up the whole job, and the
thresher has moved on to the next
setting.-Export Implement Age.

Rulers Look for "Rainy Day."

Nearly all European kings and
queens have money invested in for
eign countries. Every year the car
and czarine of Russia intrust a large
portion of their private savings to the
British and French national banks.
King Leopold, of Belgium, has a uni
versal reputation, and not an enviable
one, as Leopold & Co., rubber mer-
chants. He founded the Congo Free
State and is one of the largest rubber
and ivory dealers in the world. He
is also one of the cleverest of finan-
ciers. and knows his way about all
the bourses of Europe. King George
of Greece speculates largely in argi-
cultural products, follows carefully all
the fluctuations of the financial mar
kets and is assiduous in putting his
money into good things. The sultan
of Turkey declines to trust any Turk
ish bank with his savings, which are
nearly all deposited in British banks.

HAD CONSIDERED THE POINT.
Explanation Somewhat of a
Joke on Judge.

A lawyer in the western part of
Massachusetts having a father des-
perate case to defend, called the
courts attention to the wording of
the statute, empowering the jury to
Judge of the law as we'll as of the
facts" and requested him to instruct
accordingly. The judge somewhat re-
luctantly did SO, adding. however, that
the jurymen should accept his inter
probation of the principles involved
unless they were fully satisfied that
they knew more law than he did.
In spite of this, an outrageous YER
dict was brought in, utterly contrary
to the instructions of the judge, who
severely rebuked the jurors.
The foreman, a horny-handed farm
err, rose to reply. "Jedge," said he,
weren't we to jedge the law as well
as the facts?''
Certainly" was the response, "but
1 told you not to judge the law unless
you were satisfied that you knew the
law better than / did,
well, jedge," answered the farmer,
as he shifted his quid, 1--WE considered
that pint"

Longest and Oldest Tunnel.

The near completion of the Penn
sylyania tunnel reminds the American
Israelite of the oldest known tunnel
In the world, that of Shiloah, near Je-
rusalem. It was used as an acque-
duct. The famous inscription, dis
covered a few years ago, celebrates
the first meeting of the diggers from
both Sides Newspapers did not ap-
pear in those days, and so the event
cannot be exactly dated, but it most
probably took place under King Heze-
kiah, about 700 B. c., and is an in
teresting testimony to the high state
of civilization among the Jews at a
time when Europe was inhabited by
savages.

New WAY to Mark Cloth.

An ingenious way of marking cloth
has just come in. The tissue paper
pattern is basted upon the cloth,
which Is then placed in the sewing
machine. There is no thread in the
needle. But the paper pattern is
stitched along the line of the design.
And when the pattern or design is
lifted there is a handsome pattern all
outlined underneath. The little fine
needle has marked 1t out in the pref
tiest manner possible. 1t is clear cut,
and can be followed nicely with the

When a physician tells woman, suf-

operation is necessary it, of course,
frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart. AS one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation, she felt
that her death knell had sounded.
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for just such operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach q stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed,
