Nothing Wonderful.

James Someryille and his son James
who reside during the summer at Port
Murray, beat one Of the M. g. e. trains
between Newark and Port Murray
with an automobile the other day.
They took Mrs. Someryille to the New
ark station to take train for Port
Murray, she having an aversion to the
long trip over the rough roads, the dis
tance being close to sixty miles. They
saw the train pull out of the Newark
station with her aboard and-the they
started. The trip by road is about
twelve miles shorter than by rail but
this was the only advantage the auto
had When the train reached Port
Murray, Mrs. Someryllle was met by
her husband and son and was taken to
the family home in that village in the
same auto that she had been taken to
the Newark station in two hours and
a half before.

Dear Sir Currie Hardware Co, At

last year found-out Devoe q Reynolds.
This is how they did it.
Bought two cans, took-off the labels,
sent it to a chemist for analysis.
The chemist found it pure and they
took our agency.
This is the way to fnd-out paint ;
but not every dealer can do it. There
ought to be public provision for MAX

It's a pity American citizens haven't

Jack Sheppard in Ainsworth's famous
novel.

superstitions Of Farmers-

Farmers stick to the moon" in re-
gard to planting corn and other crops.
Some of them will not under any cir
eumstances plant corn in moonlight
nights, claiming that corn planted then
VIII produce tall stalk with a short
ear Others Just as successfully plant
when they are ready, when nights are
dark or moonlight, as the case may
be. Other notions are INDUCED in,
such as throwing the cobs in running
water to keep corn from firing. Some
farmers would under no consideration
burn pinder hulls, the seed of which is
to be used for planting; they must be
scattered along path or highway, to
be trodden upon in order to secure
good crop. Green butter bean bulls
must be thrown in road after being
shelled for table use from day to day
to insure a good crop the following
season.-Charleston News and Courier.
