i ) 1 mmy - BASSMAGERAN'S BATTERY ; The elevator in the Conjunctive Bank building had just started on its fifty-first trip. The hour was noon.. On this trip the elevator had but one passenger. This was not because people werelacking who wanted to go up, but because it was the unwritten lgw of the Conjunctive Bank building' that when Mr. J. Livingston Jaggers desired to ascend he should have the elevator all to himself, Jaggers was a capitalist and leld the heaviest mortgage on the building. Therefore, when Jaggers lumbered into the hall, the usual crowd of business persons and office boys - who were waiting to be transported skyward were unceremoniously ejected from the car and left to hurl disparaging commehts at» Jaggers’ legs as they disappeared from view. ; 1 Jaggers, as has been stated, was a capitalist; no one knew how. much he had. It was currently reported that he was a director in thirty-eight companies and president of thirty-two of them. Every one of these corporations was the off- - spring of Jaggers; every one had origna- " ted in his fecund brain. There was the . Patagonian Electric A.tt_rnctio{n company, organized to set up electric lights on thé pampas in order to attract wild horses, so « that the animals might be quietly lassoed while staring at the dazzling illumination, and subsequently sold to circuses; the Gymnotus Electrical company, organized to supply eleetric eels to families, each family hauing an éel connected with the bells of the dwelling—the prospectus said that “the'advantage of an electric eel over the usual form of battery is manifest, inasmuch as electrical batteries ‘when used up can not be eaten, wheréas . eels can;” the Electric Pie company, which furnish various substances not naturally eatable inh the form of pies, which could be. transported “in any weather and in all climates” as ballast for ships, but when subjected to the action of electrical currents, yielded new allotropic compounds not distinguish- . able in taste from mince pies; the Electric Dun Exterminator company, which promoted a neat contrivance involving a telephone, which would operate only under the influence of the words “I have called .to collect that little bill of” etc., ete. * At .the word "bill” the charge of seventy large Leyden jars was automatically switched through the speaker with the singular effect, as the company’s advertisement asserted, “of invariably catsing the most obdurate dun to settle the account out of hi§ own pocket:” and finally, < there was the Tooth Brush Klectrical company, which provided: tooth brushes which 'polished the teeth, sharpened them, put in new fillings, and caused them| to grow by “electro-galvanic ac-’ © tion.” | : .

These were merely some of the corporations which Mr. Jaggers had promoted. “Thirty-eight flourishing concerng, sir,” he - waggvont to say to his intimates, “thirty-eight companies on bed-rock basis and the stock of every one of them at par and twenty—" S 3 . Then }!gﬂ would gurgle in‘an impressive manner in his thick throat and pull back his double chin and carelessly extract a check or two from the unopened letters on his desk—there were always unopened letters with checks in them waiting for him apparently—and stop for his visitor: to recover from the effect of this announcement, - ; ; On the particular day when the clevator made its fifty-flrst trip, as stated in the beginning, just as Mr Jaggers stepped into the car, another person. endeavored to follow him. But this individual was promptly shoved back, the door was slammed sharply in his face, and the elevator in ascending grazed his nose before he could recoil. Quick as was the attendant, the stranger found time, before the elevator was out of reach to thrust into the lattice-work around it & rather dirty card. . Jagger saw it—and extracting it from between the wires, read it. It bore the words: : § !

KVORK BASSMAGERAN, Wizard. N. B.—Electrical things invented to order. | : . : : 192 East Hegira street, Constantinople, | 4th flat. ' , Jaggers read this over several times attentively, then put it in his pocket, then took it out and perused it again. By thig time the elevator had reached Jaggers’ floor and was stationary. The at; tendant respectfully held the door open ~but Jaggers stood musing—heedless of the yells and execrations rising up the shaft, by Teason of the elevator not coming down. | N Finally Jaggers awoke from his re- . verie. This was after many steps had | . been heard rushing up the stairs below, ' these being made by brokers’ clerks with belated deliveries and tempers aggregated to positive ~fiendishness. He stepped into fhe seorridor—#nd then " turning handed the card to the elevator boy—“ Bring that man wup,” he - said briefly. : > ; The elevator at once started down, this . time pursued by the anathemas of a man on the top floor who had been waiting for it tq;ome and get him. i Two hours later Mr. Kvork Bagsma- . geran emerged from Mr, Jaggers’ office with a peérplexed expression of countenance, There was no doubt, be it ob- . served, that Mr. Bassmageran was ‘a genuine Oriental. He wore a greasy,black coat of ecclesiastical cut, a dingy foz, no‘eoﬁnr/-ner ostensible shirt—and . exhaled a mild aroma of weak tobacco and otto of roses.; As he stepped into the elevator, he abstractedly rolled a cigarette in his fingers, and then seemingly smoked it without lighting it, evidently . 'tozgetting to do so. Bassmageran’s eyes wére black and sharp, The rest of his face had about as much expression as a lump of yellow fig paste—than which it was a few shades darkerin color. As . the car descended, he sat with his eyes . half closed, evidently thinking deeply. * Heremained in the elevator when it reascended—and, in fact, stayed therein ' while it made several trips up and down, . Finally, he rogse suddenly and tried to . walk out while the car was between two floors, and was a.bro?ﬂy pulled back. When he reached the lower floor, the hall porter firmly took him by the arm and marched him out with the sententious information that cramks were not - wanted in the building. Bmm%eran merely looked at him stolidly and slowly wended his w‘ﬁu street. Jaggers’ confidential clerk said that he had nono~ tion what the old man and the Turk had. tilked about in the inner office. The i th %; All - ? 4 directed him to make out a list of kol s f ime been disugroe: . mv*wn{gf B wﬁﬁmﬁ:&w}ﬁgﬁm 1 . evory que of these persons an identigal

pe¢ him personally on important business that day week. A ; Meantime one of those mysterious rumors which begin nowhere, but which somehow make themselves felt, began to pervade Wall street. It floated into broker’s offices where the lambs baaéd it to one another over the enticing tape.’ It was repeated between mouthfuls of beef salad and drinks of beer at Delmonico’s lunch counter. It formed a sort of under current in the Babel of voices of thestock exchange,”and was discussed -more quietly on the back seats in the bond room. It was absurd to suppose that anything goutterly intangible and unsupported could influence the market, but it was none the less a fact that the volume of business in stocks perceptibly decreased. Never before had it happened in the experience of Mr. Skeins, the distinguished bull, that his most valuable lamb, immediately on hearing this report; had declined to buy 500 Guatemala Consolidated Air Line, and had abruptly turned his back on the ticker with the remark that stocks were not the best investment now. And the rumor grew and grew. From whispers in the "back office it awelled to loud discussions on the curbstones, The air' rang with it, and the chimes of Trinity seemed to take it up and . reverberdte it into every nook and cranny of the money spinners. There was but one refrain—one burden—and, it took form in the words:

“Jaggers has got a big thing!”" . Yet not a living soul could tell what Jaggers had got. i ) Mo ask Jaggers himself would be to question a sphinx. His demeanor, on re‘ceiving the query, depended upon the, person who made it. - Some he transfixed ‘with a stony glare, which as one dejected individual in describing 'his sensations said “made him want to creep under the nearest stoop and try to dig.” To others he replied jocularly and made light of the reports, with a substratum of seriousness, however, easy perceptible through his airy remarks. Othersagain, and these were the bank presidents and people of that stamp who approached him on other subjects and with painful” carelessness turned the conversation in the diréction, of the rumor, he took to one side and whispered toin a sort of' emphatically suppressed way, which sent them off with the same puzzled look which Kvork Bassmageran wore on emerging from Jaggers’ lofty office. To a ‘few, a very few, he talked in a low, quiet matter. of fact tone, and they listened with rapt attention. With one person he conversed -in this way near a . coffee and cake stand, the proprietor of which niade & within -five minutes afterwards, by reporting to an enthusiastic young broker some words which he had overheard. The purchase was n disastrous one for the broker.. He obtained the following: “Syndicate—million—organization committee—Rothschild.” After deep study of “Poor’s Manual” and other educational literature the broker became impressed with an ineradicable " conviction that this presaged a corner in St. Paul. ‘Whereupon he loaded himself largely with the stock, which on the following day slumped six points, and the broker borrowed five' cents back from the coffee and cake proprietor wherewith to get home to Harlem. I

The weeck: slowly wore around. Many a capitalist went to. bed on eéach of the seven nights in hopeless bewilderment, ing¢ident to hearing one authentic explanation at the Fifth Avenue hotel, another at the Windsor, a third at the Hoffman and still another at the Union League’ club, and got up in the morning after a sleepless night spent in trying to reconcile these with each other. Inthe bucketshops Jaggers’ schemeé became actually the subject of bargain and sale. A special blackboard was” erected in each establishment with the word “Jaggers” on top of it, and quotations were made on the basis of what the stock in Jaggers new company would probably be worth put on the market. It was assumed, of course, that there would! be a corporation, and that the stock would be at oncelisted—| ultimately So the bucket-shop keepers bet against the public; that is, the public would offer 20014 for, Jaggers’ stock—whatever. it. might represent—and the bucket-shop keeper in turn stood—presuiable—obliged to deliver Jaggers’ stock at that price when he could get it. And these quotations, of course, varied, and considerable money was made and lost.” Toward the end of the week Jaggers’ stock had ‘risen to 328 1-8, spot cash, with the market buoyant. This i 3 how affairs stood; in the outer world, when thirty-three solid and respectable gentlemen greated each other with rauch formality and subdued expectation in the inner world of Mr. Jaggers’ office in the: Conjunctive bank building, as aforesoid, one week afterithe visit of Mr. Kvork Bassmageran thereto, also as ah-'ea‘dy set forth. i Mr. J. Livingston. Jaggers leaned back in his heavy armchair with a satisfiedsmile. One of the thirty-three solid and' respectable gentlemen was standing before the' long office table with his knuckles resting on the edge, in the attitnde of addressing the remaining thirtytwo solid and respeetable gentlemen. The white hair of this particular represenfative of the solidity and respectability of the metropolis stood quite erect, his face glowed with unusual excitement, perspiration had wilted his collar on one side, and even his heavy-bowed gold spectacles were somewhat awry, becoming so immediately subsequent to a'resounding thump on the table with which the speaker had reinforced a particularly effective period. Mr. Kvork Bassmageran stood leaning on a small' box, or chest, which rested on a side table, and which he had covered carefully with a thick drapery of woolen or felt. He still had the same puzzled look as whien he left Jaggers’' office a week ago, but there was mnone of the mental abstraction which followed that visit.. He was very wide awake and esﬁecially solicitous in his care of his box. The solid and respectable gentleman concluded hisspeech thus: * : “And—ough! puff! gentlemen, what we have gseen to-day is—ah—of immeasurable importance. We have—ah—taken part in the realization of—ah—a tremendous discovery. Ah! This wonderful appagatus, I am informed by our friend Jaggers, is fully capable of pro‘ducing—ah—yes, let me see—seven—no, seven hundred bushels of—what is it—-ohms-—yes, ohms—in a square inch—besides more 4han a mile of volts per—week —no, per hour. . We shall, in fact, make volts as common in every family as—as—as—beans. Ohms will be laid on every floor of the humblest dwelling. This, gentlemen, is the zenith of discovery—ah —ough — genius — ough—ah —America—invention — appreciativé world— ough—puff-— unlimited rewards! (Loud applause.) : After this peroration each solid and respectable gentleman took another glass

of Extra Dry and.blinked expectantly at Jaggers. - ¢ “Ahem;” observed that individual, “is there any one hiere who has not tested the wonderful capacities of this extraordinary discovery. I would not for a moment ask that any consideration for this enterprise should follow simply upon my expression of confidence in it.” . /At this point a small and very nervous man, with light brown hair and a high collar, who had timidly seated himself in the background, rose and diffidently asked permission to—to—- “ Certainly,” replied Jaggers, waiving his hand majestically. “Mr. Bassmage-, ran, will you—" . Bassmageran slowly lifted the heavy drapery and exposed a simple deal box, in one of which appeared a small opening. A crank handle protruded near the twop, which the Turk grasped. The nervous man adjusted his eye-glagses uneasily and approached the apparatus, then hesitated and looked at Bassmageran. The Turk smiled reassuringly. “Ze Hadji will put hims finger zight here—right there,” said he, pointing to the aperture in the box, out of which a strange, fuzzy, gra* object intermittently appeared. . by “Fhe end—at—the end of my finger?” asked the nerquujl an. 5 “Ze kntuckle—zé knuckle.. Makee haste —verra queeck,” replied Bassnmiageran, vehemently turning the handle. - “Ow! Whoop! Gracious)’ yelled the nervous man, jumping several inches into the air, and then cramming his knuckle, on which a small spot of blood appeared, hastily into his mouth. Jaggers smothered a hasty objurgation in his throat, s “Why—why,” ejaculated the sufferer, “it was just like a—" ; Do - Bassmageran had quickly drawn the drapery over the box, from which now ‘arose singular, muffled, rasping sounds, mingled with a sharp sizzing or hissing sound like steam escaping intermittenly. YERREY: S . et R w‘;' ‘ With difficulty prevented from climbing

out.of the window 1n ofder io eirect nis escape by the lightning rod“Eet ees nossing,” said Bassmageran, hastily, “ze macheenere ees a leetle new —ijoost a Jeetle new. I will remove it.” This last in answer to a significant nod from Jaggers. - e “Does any gentleman desire a further demonstration,” began Jaggers. : . A nnanimous disavowal of any such desire interrupted him. | “Then, gentlemen, we may .proceed to business—" : Jaggers seated himself at his desk and opened a huge blank book. One by one each solid and respectable gentleman in tnrn drew from his pocket a snialler blank book, and each in turn- possessing himself of a pen, made certain letters and figures on along narrow page, which was duly torn out and handed to Jaggers. For each slip of paper Jaggers returned a careful reccipt. : - After this the solid and respectable gentlemen each took another glass of Extra Dry, and shook hands each with the other and with Mr. Jaggers. They looked icasually for Bassmageran. “He is placing the aparatus in the safe ~deposit vaults,” said Jaggers calmly, in answer to their inquiring glances. h “Ah, quite right, quite right,” they obgerved. : A As the door closed after the last solid and respectable gentleman, Jaggers rapidly footed up a column of figures. ‘ “Two hundred and thirty thousand. Hum, not bad that, not bad.” . Then he drew out his check book and wrote a check for $230,000—t0 hisown order. He glanced at the clock. “James,” he called. (&Sir.” 5 “Deposit these checks and get this one of mine certified.” P

James departed. When the door had closed, Jagger went cautiously into the hall, and then opened the door of an un- . occupied office. On the floor sat Bassmageran, cross legged—Turk fashion. Jaggers looked at him severely. “Well, Meester Jaggers, I sure I did my vera, vera bes, I—" : ; “Yes, oh yes, no doubt, but the next time I rely on you I’ll know it. Where: is the infernal thing?” : Basgsmageran lifted the drapery from the- wonderful apparatus and exposed the box. : % ‘ ; Jaggers roughly kicked open the lid. There was a shmi}) spat, a piercing ma-00w, and the machinery leaped out in the shape of a frightfully exasperated Tom cat, with the fur on its back sadly rumpled, as if it had been vehemently rubbed by something to and fro and in the wrong way, just.as one rubs a cat to see the sparks fly. Jaggers threw. a twenty dollar gold pie¢e to the Turk, who caught it and submissively touched it to his forehead. On the day following the meeting in Jagger’s office, a huge sign appeared on the front of a prominent building in ‘Wall street, bearing this inscription: “The Bassmagerﬁn Electric, Battery Company (limited).” L The stock was put forth. The day be-: fore, as we have stated, the bucket-shop: quotations were 358%4. ‘Not a share was sold for less than 500. The bucket shops went under tumultously. All of the original promoters, the solid and respectable gentlemen, have sold out at large profit. Thatis, thirty-two of them djd 30. The thirty-third member of the syndicate refused to subscribe. He was the nervous man. He said he could understand how .an electri¢ shock could produce a queer sensation and be strong and -all that, but never, so long as reason held its sway, would he put a cent in an electric battery which bit and had a nose with hair .on it.~~R.

THE “LANDING OF COLUMBUS.” Romantic Story of the Artist Who Painted the Well-Known Picture. The paintings which adorn the walls of the rotunda of the capitol at Washington have no high artistic value, but some of ‘them possess peculiar historical interest. The best of these paintings is “The Landing of Columbus.” It has enjoyed a remarkable popularity. Countless thousands of engravings, lithographs and photograph from it have been scattered over the country and it was sought after by every good citizen when the government stamped a copy of it on the greenback five-dollar note. - i

This picture has a romance. It is said that as Aaron Burr, then at the height of his fame, was driving through the country in New York state one of his horses cast a shoe. While waiting at the shopofa wayside blacksmith to have the shoe replaced his attention was attracted by arough, charcoal sketch of his horses and and vehicle drawn on the side of a stable. The rapidity with which it must have been executed, its faithful likeness, surprised and interested him. Besides the sketch, charcoal in hand, stood a shockheaded boy clad in homespun. ' This boy was John Vanderlyn, who afterwards became famous as the painter of the “Landing of Columbus,” which hangs in the ca,pitol’ and the “Marius at Carthage,” which had the distinguished honor Of being exhibited at the Louvre, Paris. Burr learned from the boy that he had received no instruction in drawing and that intensified his interest in the crude genius. : Burr is said to have given him a card with his address and the words: “If ever you want employment, and desire to see the world, put-on a clean shirt and go to New York to that address.” Months afterward Burr was interrupted at breakfast by his servant handing him a small parcel with the statement that the boy who brought it was waiting out: side. The parcel was found to_contain a clean, coarse, country-made shirt. Burr was mystified but ordered the servant to show the boy in. In a moment, the artist of the blacksmith shop stood before him. Burr at once took him into his family, educated him, and assisted him to Europe, where he spent five years in the study of art. He became famous, and at one time counted even the great Napoleon among his patrons. With the usual fate of the artist, however, he always remained poor and at last died in poverty near the old blacksmith skop.—Atlanta Constitution. s

He Proved His Personal Identity. Col. Sumpter Mcßride of -Austin has been spending several weeks in New York. A few days ago, being in need of gome money, he applied to a Broadway bank to cash a draft. “What is your name?”’ asked the paying-teller. “Col. Sunipter Mcßride, sir, of Austin, Travis county, Tex.” “You will have to be identified, colonel.” This was something the colonel had not taken into consideration.. He knew of nobody who could identify him, and was about to leave the bank, when a happy thought occurred to him, He reached into his breast pocket and brought out a photograph of himself, and holding it under the nose of the bank official said: “There, sir; I guess that settles it.” “Of course that’s your photograph; but how does that identify you?” W ell, sir, will you please tell me how I could have my photograph taken ‘if I wasn’t myself?”—Texas Siftings.

~ Land Question in the United States. The immensity of her territory has blinded the republic to the responsibilities that that very immensity eintails. It has never seemed to occur to her thata day would come whew there would be no public domain to give away; and the fact that it takes more to set up farming than the mere virgin soil, and that, as population increases, and as pre-emptible land recedes farther west, and as desirable land increases in price, it becomes more surely impossible for the man without means to establish himself as a land-own-ing farmer, seem never to have weighed with her law-makers.—Thomas P. will, M.

- THE VANDERBILT MAPSOLEUM. Rigidly Plain and Undecorated—The Architect's First Design. ; Vanderbilt’s mausoleum, out at New Dorp, Staten island, is one of the finest in the world, but it is rigidly plain and undecorated. Iwent out to see it the other day. The papers here give no adequate idea of it at all. The architect, Mr. Hunt, tells me that when Vanderbilt asked- him to prepare the designs, he “laid himself out.” He was pretty familiar with tomb architecture, besides which he gbtained plans of the most noted mausoleumsin Europe, and, as Vanderbilt had told him he didn’t care what it cost, he drew elaborate designs for a magnificent structure, to cost $500,000 or $600,000. It was much decorated and highly ornate. P When Mr. Vanderbilt saw it he said: “Why, see here, Hunt, you have entirely misunderstood me. I wouldn’t have anything fancy like that for anything. We are plain, quiet, unostentatious folks, and the tomb our bodies are+o lie in must be the same. Itold youll didn’t care for price. Idon’t. I want it rich and solid, but no filigree work.” ' Then the architect began again, and made a design far less - pretentious and showy. But the mausoleum which is now half flnished will be far the handsomest private tombin America and will cost $200,000 or $300,000. Mr. Vanderbilt meant to get the family mausoleum in the Moravian cemetery at New Dorp, in which so many of his ancestors lie buried. But when he went to the trustees they asked him $20,000 for a plot of ground whereon to set it. “Well,” mused William H., “considering that my father gave all the ground to the cemetery, that seems to me a trifle cheeky!” He did not muse aloud, but he went up on the hill back of the cemetery and bought fourteen acres—a much finer site. It was the ‘architect’s first plan to have an elaborate ‘chapel built wholly above ground, but its modification at Mr. Vanderbilt’s desire, resulted in a chapel of solid granite, seated on the side hill and overlooking the sea.

Standing on the stepsin front of the central doorway an- extensive and lovely view is obtained. The little hamlet of New Dorp, with/its scattered farm-houses, lies at the foot of the knoll. Directly in front is the lower bay of New York, and, beyond, the silver-gray of the broad Atlantic. Down at the right is the blue slip of Sandy Hook; at the left lies Coney island. This mausoleum will be almost the first building seen by the Atlantic passenger coming to America. It is sixty feet by 100 and its style is Romanesque. The interior is divided into apartments deftly hewn from the richest -stone.—W. A. Croffut’s Letter.

The Buflalo in Colorado. The buffalo which has long been known as the noblest animal native to this region, has become almost extinct, having been hunted to death, and is now found | mostly in portions of Montana and Dakota. It is a mild, shy animal, its characteristics being similar to those of domestic cattle. The male is a proud, strong-minded animal, and is famous for its magnificent proportions and stately air. Buffalo can run no faster than horses, and are thus easily overtaken and captured. Hunters spring upon them from behind bluffs; they become startled, and rush headlong in the greatest confusion, by reason of which they always takethe wrong course, and are almost invariably captured. ; They are so scarce now that their headsa are very valuable. Six years ago these heads sold for $7, now they sell for from 875 to $l5O. They are considered invaluable in a matter of collections, none, however small, being considered complete without them. Last year an Englishman who was visiting Colorado paid_the exorbitant price of $250 for a pair of heads which he bought here, and considered the finest he had ever seen. o The buffalo in the mountains are much Jdarker than those, on the plains. They are of arich brown color, the shades in their fur varying from the darkest to the ynlest brown. Between these shades there e many lovely golden hues of a deep ‘lor, which are never so well seen as «hen the skins are spread .out before an open, blazing fire. The reflection of the firelight brings out the varying shades as: nothing else will, and makes them a subject of universal comment among lovers of the beautiful.—Denver Tribune-Repub-lican. i Culture of Lilacs in Midwinter. : For a few years past sdperb boquets of white lilacs have been exiibited by Parisjian florists for admiration in midwinter. It appears that the industry of forcing these plants is an extensive omne in the suburbs of the French capital, and it is one which requires great experience for its successful management. In one establishment the principal greenhouse, where the lilacs are planted, is about 160 feet in length, 23 in width and 12 in height. I s :

The other greenhouses, which are much smadller, are sunk in the earth. A semiobscurity pervades all of them. Glazed sashes, covered with thick lattice work, constitute the roof. The soil is composed of ordinary earth without manure, and the necessary temperature is secured by a system of hot water pipes. Lilacs sprout at a mean temperature of from 30 to 35 degrees centigrade. On New Year’s Day the consumption of lilac bouquets in Paris is enormous, Parisian gardeners furnishing about 12;000 of them. Lilacs are also sent to England, Belgium and Russia in large quantities.—La Nature. iy }

Rugs and Carpéts from the East. Of late oriental rugs and carpets have attracted the attention of the refined, and are likely to prove lasting favorites for many reasons, among which are their general utility and beauty, richness in colors, oddity and peculiarity of design, and durability. : Rugs and carpets are manufactured all over the east; even Africa comes in for her share. There are five species of rugs and carpets woven in Turkey, known by the respective localities where they are produced, viz., Koola, Ushak, G’eordez, or Ghiordes, Kurdish, and Roumeli.— Harper’s Bazar.

* The Pleasures of This World. Gambetta said after he had been about eighteen months at the Petit Bourbon: “There is nothing that is so soon exhausted as capacity for any sort of material'enjoyment. I have got so thoroughly to see this as to wonder how any fairly rich man can want to be a millionaire. The pleasures arising from the heart and intellect are infinite, and the more you taste them the more your capacity to enjoy them increases.—Exchange.

The profitable maxim in life is the midile way. Don’t quite believe ghybody, for he may mislead you; neither disbelieve him, for that is uncomplinentary to your friend.—Thackeray.

The Governor of North Carolina said to the Governor of South Carolina:— “Sir, the best remedy in the world is Dr. Bull’'s Cough Syrup,” aund the latter seconded the assertion.

Canadian lumber dealers are now glad to buy the black walnut fence rails which farmers split and used as they would any other timber twenty or thirty years ago. The long exposure has seasoned the wood theroughly, and it is valuable as material for chair legs, spindles and other small articles.

It is worth much money to our farmer readers to know that a quart of flax seed oil with two ounces of beeswax added, and applied whilerhot, will preserve wood and iron implements from rust or decay. This information is valuable if farmers will uss it.
