A u gro boy, driving a gin on

into the cogwheel and so badly in

True greatness shows itself in ig
noring, or quieklv forgetting, per
sonal itijuri s, when meaner natures
would bo kept in unrest bv them.
The less of a man one is, the more
ho makes of an injury or an insult .
Ttte more of a man ho i<, the less he
is disturbed by what others say or
dong .n st him without cause.
Four men have been elevated to
tlia Presidency on account, of the
death of the elected President.:
John Tyler, April 6, 1841; Millard
Filinore 1 July 10, 1850; Andrew
Johnson, April 15, 1805; Chester A.
Arhtur, September 19. 1881.
It is a singular fact that none of
the presidents who have died in of
fice were democrats.
Some of the farmers of Randolph
county are purena-ing clover seed
for trial in that section.
There are 800 pupils in the Ag

The Eqo Laving Limit of Fowls.
—lt is eUtuieil that the ovarium of
a fowl is composed of 600 ovula
'’KK H - Therelore a lien during the
whole of her life cannot possibly
lay more than 600 eggs, which in ft
natural course, ml distributed over
me years in the following propor
tion: Full year, 15 to 20; second
100 to 120; thirl, 120 to 185;
fourth, 100 11 15 /; Fifth, 60 to 85;
sixth, 50 to 60; seventh, 35 to 40-
eighth, 15 to 2I; ninth, Ito 10. It
f dl'iws Unit if this is correei, it
would not be pr -Stable to keep
them uftor their fourth year as
their pro facts would not pay for
their keeping, except whon they are
a valuablo breed. On the contrary
it is held by others us not true that
there is a certain amount of eggs,
and that this number exhausted, no
more can be expeclod, but that the
secreti m lessens as obi age comes
00. an I latterly the hen fails tohuve
uffi ient fore - t c i-rv for-var I the
process of egg-f rm.fiou, which we
expect is c trees. At all events ar
far as our experience goes, a hen
after three or four years also ceases
to be profitable for 1 yiug eggs,
A year-old hen certainly i roduces
more eggs than a four-year old one.
Ex-Mmiter Wlme, just return

electrio railway is a perfect success
ad will create a revolution pres

Tuo Ooly apparatus the car carries
is contained in a box underneath
the floor, about, three feet long, two
broad and eightee i inches high.
Tue cur stops and starts as e-shy
as a horse car, and runs at th r ite
of about fifteen o' t as.nty miles an

The increasing prosperity of the
8 nth, snyH the Boston A ivertiser,
is h tving its off- ot up n northern
merchau . isoutheru buyers are
miking larger purchases than usu
a'; credits are good in all parts of
the sou’h and obligations aro
promptly met. It has been some
times said that the opening of south
ern factories would create a market
there and keep buyers at home.
This is a mistake. The multiplica
tion of industries increases the
wealth of any community, and the
Swiith will not bn hii execution.
