Modern Aewers of Wood

We hear our fathers speak of how
the broadaxe used to be in use and
what great things they could do with
Il. but we do not have to 90 back to
their times to see some first class
work. George and Clyde Brown, two
strong young men Of the Stephensport
community, shouldered their axes
early one morning, went to the woods,
and when night came they had made
sixty.one crosstles. No culls and only
one second was found when they
we're spotted. d.-Hardingsburg Leader,

In that one Of the hundred best
books Vallery-Radot's Life Of Pas
teur" We read the story Of his misery.
1t is nothing to say that the war near
ly broke his heart. But it broke
neither his faith nor the straight line
of his work. Only a sort Of rage poss-
essed him to redeem and console
France by working for her. Hence
FORTH" he said, "every one of my
books shall have written on it these
words, Revenge, revenge, revenge" ,"
And this was his revenge, to set the
name of France in the honors list Of
science higher than ever; to give the
rest of his life to her service, and
to wear himself out for her sake

A country Win only one Bank.

There are no public banking in
stitutions in the Dominican Republic,
and but one private bank with
agencies in the more important towns
which buys and sells drafts, makes
loans. and Is the repository of the
Government funds. Buying and sell
ing drafts Is an important source OF
revenue to this bank and also to
many private individuals. Money is
easily placed at almost any time at
IL per cent a month, and some
times at 2 and 21s per cent, with first
class real estate or personal security.
Long time loans of large amounts
are placed at ~ per cent per annum.
Municipalities, borrowing money for
improvements and other purposes,
pay per cent. a month. There are
very few depositors in the local
bank. Most Of the well to do people,
both among the merchants and farm
ers. never think Of depositing their
money but have small private safes or
secrete their hoardlngs in some other
manner.-Moody's Magazine.

Iocity of slightly more than forty miles
an hour. Starting as a southerly gale
the wind later shifted to a westerly
direction. But little damage was done
here by the storm. The rain that pre-
ceded the blow was an ideal summer
shower. It was followed by a clear
cut and beautifully colored double rain
bow. Trees in some sections Of the city
were shorn of a few limbs, and one or
two entire trees were blown down, but,
compared with the damage done in
other cities. Washington escaped un-

Warmer weather, after tonight, with
a general dying down of the gales

dismal rains, will not be forthcoming
this year.
