The commissioner aaya that these figures have been published for ten years past, and yet thousand*, of fanners continue to pay tbe excessive price*. Tbe fall ing off in tbe purchase of supplies in dicates that the farmers are giving more attention to diversified crops The improvement in this respect, tbongb small, is gratifying, and jostifiee the hope that it will be macb more marked in tbe near futare.

Miss Margaret Dodd, of New York, went to the office of Dr. Ferdi nacd Essbronck. a dentist of that city, and bad two teeth extracted. After her recovery from the opera tion, she found that when chewing her food, her jaws clicked at every motion and caused intense pain. Time passed, bat the click of Miss Dacn’s jaws persistently remained with her. She brought suit against the dentist, and as sbe testified in the court, her jaws merrily clicked an accompaniment. Tbe jnry ap peared eympitbie, end matters look ed bine for Dr. Hasbronck. His lawyers, however, palled themselves togethei and qaoted musty old meoi cal authorities on tbe 6nbject of jiw clicking, until they actually persuad ed the unroiuantic jury to find for the defen deni.

Each chapter is alive with excitement and the plot moves on with a power and spirit which will, we believe, make this one of the most acceptable serials we have ever offered in these columns. THE BRETON MILLS Is a story that will satisfy the popular demand for intense interest in each installment. The scene is laid in a New England factory village. Both the employing class and the class of the employed furnish actors in the thrilling romance, and the reader's interest will be closely held all through the changing scenes of the stoiy. While not taking sides on the questions interesting working people, which are touched upon in the story, the author dissedts the pa¬ thetic elements of the life of the poor with fearless hand. Still his romance, after all, is a romance of love, and all else in the story is only introduced to solve the problem of one man’s devoted and faithful nature. i p ILLUSTRATED BY GUSACHS And copyrighted under a special arrangement with the author.
