Genuine Peerless Cotton Seed.
Fort Valley, Ga., Ang. 1st. 1888.
I have about 200 bushels of genu

am fully satisfied and can show by
the growing crop that it will yield
one third more cotton per acre than
the common seed planted in the conn
try. My price per bushel delivered
at Fort Valley is one dollar. Should
yon want a few bnsbeJssend me your

By doing so I secure the genuine, as

An Automatic Medicine Dispenser.
An American manufacturer of sugar
coated pills added to the attractions of an
exhibit of his product iu London an in¬
genious piece of mechanism, which
might have been intended to represent
the pharmacist of the future. It was in
the form of a cabinet provided with a
series of knobs or buttons, each inscribed
with the name of some malady for which
a remedy might be asked. The customer
puts a coin into a slit and presses tho
button calling for the remedy he requires,
when immediately a drawer flies out con¬
taining the article sought. This auto¬
matic dispenser of course makes no mis¬
takes. If the customer accidentally
presses the wrong button, he alone is re¬
sponsible for the error. Is this really
what wo are coming to?—Scientific
American.
Steeds Renowned In History.
Beside the mythical horses there were
real steeds that are renowned in history.
Alexander's charger, Bucephalus, is
known to every school boy. He re¬
ceived after death the honor of a mauso¬
leum, and the city of Bucephala was
named after him. Celer, the horse of
the Emperor Yerus, was also honored
with a mausoleum in the Vatican after
his death, and while living was fed upon
almonds and raisins, clothed with royal
purple, and stabled in the palace. The
horse of Caligula, Incitatus, was still
more highly honored while living. He
was made priest and counselor, ate from
an ivory manger, and drank wine from
a golden pail, —F. S. Bassett in Globe-

Diamonds from the Sky.
Meteoric stones that sometimes fhU to
the earth are the objects of special study
and thorough examination by scientific
men. They are all similar in their com¬
bination of material or substance. But
occasionally new facts aro developed. In
one stone were found organic remains
showing the former existence of animal
life. In another that fell in Siber Sept
4 , 188(5, weighing about four pounds,
were found small diamonds. A small
fragment of tho stone was sent to Mr.
George F. Kunz, who is with Tiffany &
Co., New York. lie found minute dia-
monda that were real stones, because
they wiiulil scratch sapphires, diamonds
being the only substance that can pro¬
duce a scratch on the polished surface of
a sapphire.—New York Star.
