Irish Potatoes Grown Under Straw. No approximate estimate of the val ueof a crop of this universally approv. ed esculent can be made. Horace Greely ouce said that the knowledge of headiug off the Colorado potato hug by the use of paris green was worth millions of dollars to the country. A total failure to the crop in tue United States would be almost as disastrous as it would be in Ireland or Germany. The experiment station of New York has for years been trying to find out: 1. What fertilizers are best for the crop. 2. What temperature is most congenial: (a) for the roots; (b) for the tubers ; (c) for the plant above the ground. Theimoneters are used in the field and earth. The conditions, as we remember them, are : Cool and moist for the roots, warmer for the tu bers end normal for the tops. Our readers will remember the tu bers are not roots, but culargcd blanch es. Rich, moist soil (potatatees will grow in the mud) for the bottom, a stratum of sand mostly for the tubers, and a port us, well pulverized soil for the tops. Of course, the ordinary far mer can only approximate these con ditions, but the knowledge of them may help him a great deal. A gentleman of our acquaintance, who is an enthusiastic farmer, gro«s his potatoes under straw aud leaves. He has not failed for thirty-one years, except in 1880, and he attributes the failure to the subsoil, which, in couse quence of the drouth, had become so hard that the roots proper could not reach the plant food below, so the pro duct was “tops” mostly—the tubers were not there. If now the land were put in the best of tilth, then slightly ringed and the seed (tubers of two or three eyes, be ing in fact scions, and therefore just as good from small as large potatoes) were planted on these ridges a>»out two feet spart, and if sand—unless present in sufficient quantity in the natural soil—could be so applied on the top where the tubers would be most likely to form, and if subsequent ly a very light covering of soil be ap plied and then the whole be covered with a thick coat of straw and leaves, such a bed would in our opinion be the very perfection of potato culture under straw. 'J here is no after-culti vation necessary, and when the work is well done the tubers, after taking off the straw and leaves, would tie clean and, in appearance, like a uest of eggs. For Scrofula in every form Hood's Sarsaparilla is a radical, reliable rem edy. It has an unequalled record of cures. The malarious summer will soon be here. Buy a bottle of Cheatham’s Tasteless Chill Tonic and fortify your self against chills and fever. It i» ah solutely guaranteed to cure and pleas ant to take. Nellie Bly got around the world pretty lively, but Cheatham’s Tasteless Chill Tonic will go it at a still better pace. Try a bottle when in nee lof a remedy for chills. Why scratch your life away when a little Hunt’s Cure judiciously applied will cure the worst case of Itch evet known? If not it costs you nothing. Price 50 cents. The eighth wonder of the world just discovered.—Chestam’s Tasteless Chill Tonic. It will prove a boon to humanity. It is the same tonic as that heietofore sold under the same name except that it is tasteless. Guaranteed to cure. A Phenoiuinal Success. Four years ago, two Coob county boys entered the heavy grocery busi ness in Atlanta. Their mo'to, from the beginning, was “fair dealing, good good* and rock bottom prices.” They have stuck to the text, and every cus tomer has learned tnere is no such thing as deception in the house. They began in an unpretentious style but pushed their business. To day their customers come from every county adjacent to the city, and from sections considerably removed. Their sales for the present year has reached the stupendous sum of SIBO,OOO. Of this sum Henry county leads the van, having contributed the sum of $75,000 Our people have learned that at this house they get their moneys’ worth. The credit of the house stands as fair as any one concern in the .State, if not the United States. To those who have never known the gentlemen alluded to, we will in troduce them to Messrs. Duncan & <'amp of 77 White Hall, street. It is needless to say that this house brads its competitors in point of giving bar gains to its customers, for the mere fact of our Henry county people trad ing $75,000 with it proves that our astute fanners have learned where they can buy cheapest. Merit will always win, and it is safe to predict that this house will always he found on the side of the people against the combines, trust and mou opolies. The Lovers Lament.

As to Prince Napoleon’s daily life in liis Prangins retreat, lie rises with tho sun, lounges or works in his studio nnd receives visitors, if any thero be, until luncheon, which is announced for 11:45 a. ul aud never lasts more than half an hour. Immediately afterward, and no matter what tlie weather inny be, he takes a long walk beyond the con fines of his park, and returns between 2 and 3 p. m. to open his mail corre s[ioiidcnco, which comes to hand dur ing his afternoon stroll, and which is always voluminous and very regular. This occupies him until tlie dinner hour. In tlie evening ho plays chess with neighbors or with faithful 1 ’urisian friends, such as M. Adolon, Baron Bru net anil one or two others who arrive In turn. Each shares his exile for a few days, lie prides himself upon be big a great player, but shows himself a very bail one, especially with M. Ado lon, who vies with him in tlie wittiest and most comical manner imaginable. He retires toward 11 o'clock.—Paris Gaulois. A S«tf Horinj- Well. An artesian well, now partly com pleted, at Pesth, Hungary, has reached a depth of 1,400 yards, and by the time it is finished will be the doe post of ita kind in the world. It is intended to supply hot water for a great bath house connected with a large hotel; at pres ent that which is obtained has a tein [•eraturo of 164 dogs. Fahrenheit, ana it is expected that 1,600 yards will raise the temperature to 180 dogs. or 200 dogs. Tho most curious feature about tliis well is the adaptation to it of auto matic machinery for boring, the water power for which is supplied by the well itself. By tills means the boring has been conducted at double its previous rate. Surely this is a great age when water spurting from a well can be so harnessed as to increase the depth of the well from which it comes.—St Louis Republic. Any Kxcom Welcome.

CmlotiH F,xpftrlenc« of a Clergyman with an Alleged Jailbird. I am going to reveal to my Indulgent ' reader a little experience I had. I don’t know if It will Interest him, bat It has been the subject of considerable questioning with me ever since it oc curred. I was sitting in this study Thursday morning; Augusta came to the door, saying, “There isa man down stairs who wants to see you.” “Ask him up here,” I said. In walffed a man, medium height, shabby clothes, face rather keen, alert, hair black, mix'd with gray; eye sharp, with rest less look, having in his whole makeup a combination of sheeplike timidity, bangdogness and rather pious pity. “Good morning; what can I do for youT “I come to you,” he answered, “in rather a strange time and on a strange errand. I liavo been out of Joliet prison three months; I have been in this city the larger part of this time; 1 have been sick; I have been sleeping in the sta tions, railroad and police; I have been trying to make an honest living. I saw your face, and I said you are a man who will help me.” Moved of course by tills touch of flat tery, I entered into the ease with some degree of warmth. “What can you do?” I asked. “I learned in Joliet to paint, but I will do anything.” “Are you a good painter 7' “Yes, sir." “All right, I tliink I can get you somo work. ” “You may like to write to Joliet about me; I becaino a Christian there; the ctiaplain was My number was 64,856.” “Yes, I shall bo very glad to know all about you. I will write at once. I’ll got you some work at once. You come to mo day after to-morrow, and I think I can help you,” I said, and bade him good morning. Tlie second day after he appeared. I took him into the livery stable where I hire my parochial assistants in pas toral visitation and said to the proprio tor, “Mr. G , don’t you want to iiiro tliis man to help you in various ways, and you givo him his board and lodging?” “Certainly I do." The man, whoso name, by the way, was Freder ick J. Dubuque, seemed very grateful. “Now,” I said to Mr. Dubuque, “let’s go to tlie c&rriago man and see If we cannot get you some regular work at painting.” Tho carriage man flnidly consented to give him work, and he was to come round next Monday for it That afternoon I was going to make some parish calls, and I said to the man, “Come out with me and hold my horse.” Wo had a good chance to talk during this ride. lie told me the story of his life. He ran away from homo at 14, fell into bad company, began to steal in a small way and then became a shop breaker. Never, he said, had he broken into a house. This he said ! with a good deal of prida Ho liad | friends living ill Williamsburg, N. Y., and also in Walpole, Mass.; had a son about 18 years old. Ilis wife died sev eral years before. He told me about his life in Joliet, tlie cell fever, eta, and ilia temptations to steal since com | ing to the city. After a while wo came to the end of the list of visits, and I bade him good night, handing him a quarter in pay uient of bis services, against receiving wliicli lie manifested a proper degree of dithdonco. I asked him to take the horse back to tho stable. “I sliall eomo round Monday to see how you are setting on.” The last word he said to me was, “You have not heard from Joliet yet aiioiit me.” I said, “No.” The second day following I stepped in to see how the work was coming on. They said the man had brought the horse back, but they bad not seen him since. Thus vanished my friend into tho unknown. Two days after I heard from Joliet that never had there been a man of tho name of Frederick J. Du buque confined in that prison. 1 want to ask a question. What was the purpose of the man in coming to me I —Clergyman in Chicago Advance. Velocity of the Wind. Wind velocities differ greatly accord ing to locality, even on the land, where they are usually lower than at sea. Thoy are higtier at Sandy Hook, for in stance, than on the Equitable building in this city. They are greater, too, at an elevation than on the earth's sur face; greater, normally, in the winter than in summer, and greater in early afternoon hours than in the early morn ing. The mean hourly velocity at the signal service station in New York city for about fourteen years was reported in 1885 to be 9.4 miles, while at Hat teras it was 14.6. Probably the sever cst blast recorded by the signal service in this city was experienced on Feb. 26, 1886, when for a few minutes a speed was attained computed to be at the rate of eighty-four miles an hour.— New York Tribune.

POLLY MADE A MATCH. A Bashful Youth Helped Out in the Nick of Tlm« by k Bird That Spoke Up. “A parrot is usually regarded, I know, as a very mischievous, meddle- some bird, and all the stories are of their interference and trouble making, but I have always believed that I owe my life’s happiness to one of them,” re marked Mr. M C , of this place, a day or two ago to a friend. The story being entreated Mr. C continued: “I was the most bashful youth you ever saw, the very shyest imaginable, especially where ladies were concerned. I was fond of their society, enjoying it 80 that I sought it as often as I could, and yet at tb<- same time in a perfect agony of basin illness if required to an swer tho simplest question or to express an opinion on any subject, while to be asked to button a glove or any such little service would throw me into such a state of nerv< ms excitement that 1 usually ended in making on awkward duDje.of - “I visited at one house where the girls, or rather, two of them, romping, high spirited misses, took the keenest delight in playing upon this bashfulness of mine; but, secretly adoring the other sister—the eldest—l bore this patiently, for, while she could not al ways refrain from laughing at her sis ters’ pranks, and tlie confusion they threw me into, she herself never teased me. “But to get to Miss Polly. She was a green bird with a yellow head and a wicked eye and a liabit of walking in the flower garden, wherein a little sum mer house fitted up as a parlor the girls were fond of ent; tabling their company during the pleasant months. This bird was sitting one day on a trellis near by, when in a state of the greatest excitement I came to this summer par lor, and meeting a servant, sent Miss Nellie word to please meet me there. 1 had heard that a rival had appeared on the scene and that it was thought that tho girl I had loved so long in si lence was favoring tho new comer, but I had mado up my mind to find out tho truth of the report by speaking at last In my own cause. “I had fully determined in doing this, which seemed an easy task, till I caught sight of her sweet' face as she advanced toward me, then my courage fled and in abject terror I waited for her. 1 stammered out some foolish speech in tended for an apology and sat looking at her, dismayed to seo how unusually quiet and depressed sho seemed, while Polly, walking up and down tho trellis, watched us both suspiciously. At last, just as I decided to put it off, as I had decided a hundred times before, that parrot paused in her strutting and, leaning over, urged, ‘Kiss her I kiss her, quick 1 you goose!’ My heart stopped beating and I scarcely dared steal a glance at Miss Nellie, but when I did sho was blushing so divinely, her lips were so tempting and—well, thero was a look in her eyes that'told me a delicious secret; so, with sudden cour age, 1 le:med forward and with a ‘May I, Nell?’followed Poll’s sage advice. “Yes, my wifo’s namo is Nellie, and Poll, now gone tho way of all Hash, now stands upon our mantel beauti fully stuffed and prized most highly.- In all probability I would have allowed the treasure I coveted to slip through my fingers had she not helped me out, for my wifo has sinco told mo she had just decided it was lost time to continue to love a man so bashful that ho would not tako his own, and that sho would try and like tho other fellow.”—Attica (N. Y.) Cor. 8L I<ouis Globe-Democrat The Original Three Card Monte Man. I have found a man in my rounds who was well acquainted with “Canada Bill,” the original threo card monte man, now dead. “The threo card monte game,” ho said, “was first worked by ‘Canada Bill’ in 1869. Bill was a Canadian, as his name indicated, and he was as stupid a looking man as one could easily find. Bill worked liis game on the trains usually, passing himself off as a cattleman from Texas. In 1873, after making a vast sum of money at his trick, ‘Canaria Bill’ conceived the idea of organizing all the men inclined to be ‘crooked’ in tho various points about which be plied tiis vocation. lie called it, as all men of his calling now do, “squaring the head’—that is, ‘fixing’ the head officials of a town if possible, establishing a fence, having a ‘fixed’ lawyer and ready ‘straw bail property holders.’ At one time he bad working for him 1,600 men on the trains and in various towns and cities.”—Kansas City Times. Expensive Manufacturing;. “This bit of aluminum,” said CoL L. C. Weir, of Cincinnati, the other day, pointing to a small bit of the metal on his desk, “cost me just $lO,- 000. Yes, that’s rather dear for alumi num, I admit, but still,” with a smile, “we must havp it, you know. I be came interested in a man who had a “perfect process’ for making aluminum. A company was formed and the stock subscribed. Tho process looked very well on paper, but this is all 1 have to show for my slo,ooo,tho amount of my stock.

"That will cost this road $20,000!” said a tramp who was kicked by a Union Pacific freight conductor, and he kept his word fcy starting a fire in a big coal pile.—Detroit Free Press. The Farmers Compel Econ«»my. As the Fanners’ Alliance will have a strong repr<JK:ntation in the next house of representatives, and as the fanner* may increase their representation here, this fact is likely to have a great tend ency to cause congressmen to live in a leas extravagant manner. The farmers not only believe in official economy, but also in personal economy. They think that one is necessary to the other. A number of men who have occupied good positions in congress, and who depended upon a rural constituency for their offi cial existence, have been suddenly re tired to private life on account of the farmers of their district thinking that their habits while at the national capital were not sufficiently economical. As the great majority of congressmen represent agricultural constituencies they : may conclude hereafter to cut down ex ' peiises, knowing that the farmers are just now taking a deep interest in poli * tics and that the tillers of the soil do not ! approve of expensive living. If this should prove to be the case it may cease to be the fashion for congressmen to live luxuriously, and then there will to a bet ter chance for a congressman to put something by for a rainy day.—Congress man John Quinn in New York Telegram Mr. Powderly s<Kt Alliance. In closing his address at Ocala Mr. T. V. Powderly, general master workman of the Knights of Labor, said: “Now let me say to you that our greeting to you is most cordial and heartfelt.
