The gen eral increase in the rural population during the last fifteen years has been very nearly thirty per cent, or two per cent, per annum, which is about dou ble the normal rate of increase in Brit ish India. The Christian Copts nnin ber about half a million, or one-sixteenth of the whole rural population. fThe Greeks, who are the village usur ers and sellers of alcoholic drink, have not increased, but there is a very large increase of other European nationalities. ltrcaklng Oold I'lece. One of the most pnr.f.led men in town is It Montgomery street restaurant keeper who recently took in a $20 gold piece which rilled all the ordinary re quirements of genuineness so far as a superficial test could reveal the true facts. But a few days Bgo a banker stepped into his place and saw the '-!0 gold piece which the restaurant man had received only a short time before. The banker had a queer look in his eyes as he took the coin and rapped it sharply with his knife and the restau rant keeper had a stranger expression as he saw his supposed 20 piece break into two pieces, hit 1 ii nil 1 - 1.1 now is itiisr lie ueiuauucu. The banker answered: "It is the same old game, I had one of these pieces myself, (tilil since that 1 have tested gold pieces of the ?LH) denomin ation Very carefully. If that hod been genuine my test would not hove broken it." Then the restaurant keeper and the banker carefully examined it together. The outside of the gold piece was all right, seemingly, when the dissevered parts were placed together. The mill ing seemed to be np to the standard. The weight, was correct. But the inside of the piece was half filled with a composition which was not the customary gold and alloy. Still closer examination revealed that the gold had been sawed through with ex quisite care and skill just inside of the milling. Then the milling hod been removed and from the interior of the piece some of the cold had been ex tracted and tho baser composition-was made to toAie the plaed of the "more precious metal. Then, with equal deftness and skill the milling had been replaced and soldered in some way, and the trick was done.

Oldest Living Odd Fellow. According to the Chicago Times Herald J. Norwood Clark, of Iowa City, Iowa, is the oldest living mem ber of the order of Odd Fellows. It ia more than fifty years since he was initiated into the order at Baltimore in the first Odd Fellows' building ever erected in this country. He was then a member of Gratitude Lodge, No. 5. In 1841 Mr. Clark took his card from Baltimore Lodge, and placed it with Western Lodge, No. 24. He removed in 1843 from Western Lodge to Ohio Lodge, No. 1, and his last change was made in 1855, when he deposited bis card with Eureka Lodge, No. 44, of Iowa City, where it remains to this day. Since that time he has never missed a meeting of the lodge, save the session which was held at Cedar Rap ids in 1872. In 1868-69 Mr. Clark was grand representative to the Sov ereign Grand Lodge of the United States. He is widely known among Odd Fellows in all parts of the coun try. Mr. Clark is a native of Phila delphia and is eighty-three years old. He was initiated while still a young man into the first encampment of Pa triarchs in the world. He has been a member of the Grand Encampment of Iowa since 1859. Do liees Fill t'p the Crackaf It depends entirely on circumstances whether they do or not. If they are up iu the sections some days before they begin to work they will chink them up; but if the weather is hot, and the honey-flow good, they are just as apt to tlli and seal them before doing any waxing nt all. and they sometimes nsed to fill and cap entirely the large wooden boxes which I used to make before sections came in vogue. I fre quently made the top out of two pieces," and they would shrink so that 1 could see down, and 1 saw tncui filled and cappedj so that I could look right dowil between every sheet of honey after taking them off and get ting the bees out, and not a particle anywhere; but if left on long after they were filled they would put in propolis; while if the weather was cool, and they wanted them warmer, they would fill them with white wax, the same as they used iu making comb. But it made me laugh just a little to see von cito Doolittle to a cose of bees storing honey in extracting-combs with a crocK rixi men over lueir nenus. Now, haven't you been around bees long enough to find that they never stop up a crack that they can go through freely? But may be your bees can't get through a half-inch hole must be somo dorsata about them. In answering a question as to the merits of a tall section over a square one. one writer makes a point which I think is a good one, Viz., that it is detriment to bee-keepers when they adopted the panel sections, and says the prn:c of upiiev-ubUiotuave oeen lowered if we hod stuck to the larg section, and he is right; and another thing besides the extra work of setting up, putting iu foundation, scraping, etc., is that the bees will put up more honey in large section than iu small ones, just as they will beat themselves if allowed to work all together in a largo hive, all iu one body; but then, we don't want to raise chunk honey, so must have some kind of package to get it stored iu. But I can get about ttyi pounds more honey in two than in one pound sections, which would allow for A couple of cents less J but tiled, I cau't sell them all at any price, except a limited number around home; they won't sell at all in Chicago unless there is a great scarcity. So, much agoiust my will, I am obliged to nse the 4lx4f, and I prefer them lj wide, and nse without separ ators, Bud have or crooked comb they weigh nearer an even pound than any other size I ever had. Then I doubt whether as much honey is sold as there would be if the two-pound sections were all there were in use, for scores of people would buy just as quickly as any way, and, once bought, it would be eaten, and they would buy that A TEMPERANCE COLUMN. THE DRINK IN EVIL MADE MANIFEST MANY WAYS. Dairy calves need make milk, not fat. Protect, the lambs against being drenched by sudden showers. A well bred calf must be well fed to make a good cow remember that. If you have apples on hand do not let them rot feed to tho inilk cows, sheep for mutton as well as for wool. Quality counts. A little linseed meal fed a cow be fore calving will not hurt her any; or after calving, for that matter, Grease or oil on sitting hens is posi tively injurious, either on the hen's feathers or body, as the least trace upon the eggs destroys the germs Study the dispositions of your calves as they grow. Pet and foster the good ones, curb the bad ones, and. if too bad better get rid of the calf as veal or "baby beef." A cow with a mean disposition is no comfort in a dairy. Successful management of the calf lies at the foundation of stock-raising, and there must bo no slack in attention or watchfulness. Heonriug, the bane of calf rearing, indicates indigestion, and results from overfeeding, irregular feeding, giving food too cold, or per mining the young animal to get chilled or wet. It matters not whether the farmer is breeding for beef or butter, he cannot afford tct ignore the principle which runs through all breeding oper atious that like begets like.

LOST FOR MOOO VtARSi A 3rat rin'8 of the Highly Trlied Tlieil saltan marine. The quarries from which the an cients obtained their highly prized Thessolion or verd marble have been discovered, Bud are again being worked by an Knglish company. The quarries, which have been lost for more than 1000 years, are in the neighborhood of Larisso, in Thossaly, Orecco. The ancient workings are very extensive, there being no fewer than ten quar ries, each producing a somewhat dif ferent description of marble, proving without a doubt that every variety of this marble found in tho ruined pal aces and churches of Borne aud Con stantinople, and likewise in all the mosques and museum of the vorld came originally from theso quarries. In fact, the very quarry from which the famous monoliths of St. Hophia, Constantinople, were obtained can be identified with absolute certainty by tho matrices from which they were extracted. Iu modern times verd antico marble, hos only been obtainable by the de struction of some ancient work, and it bos, naturally, commanded extraor dinarily high prices. As a consequence, a number of ordinary modern greens of Greek, French, Italian and Ameri can origin hove been described aud sold as verd antique marble. No one, however, who is really acquainted with the distinctive character of the genuine material could be deceived by these inferior marbles. Thessalian green is easily distinguished from any other green marble by the followiug charac teristics: It is a "breccia" of angular fragments of light and dork green, with pure statuary white, tho whole being cemented together with a brighter green, while the snow white patches usually have their edges tinted off with a delicate fibrous green, radi ating to tho centre of the white. The cementing material is also of the same fibrous structure. Philadelphia Rec ord. State Willi the Longest Strawberry Season.

The highest bridge of auy kind in the world is said to be the Leo lliver Viaduct on the Autofagasta Railway, iu Bolivia, South America. The place where this highest railway etruottire hus been erected is over the Molo Kaiiids in the Upper Andes, and is be tween the two sides of a canyon which is Bituuted 10,000 feet from the level of the Pacific. From the surface of the stream to the level of the rails this celebrated bridge is exactly 636 1 feet iu height, the length of the principul suau is eighty feet, aud the distance between the abutments is 802 feet. The gauge of the road is twenty-seveu foet six inches, and the trains cross the bridge at a speed of thirty miles He "Urank I.Ike a Fish."

Alcohol is not more necessary to health than any other chemical or mediciuul agent. It excites the heart, hinders diges tion, disturbs the liver, and stupetles the brain. It gives a momentary glow and tdlmulus, but you have to pay for them afterwards by an iuevitable lessening ol vital heat and animal power and mental force. Even in so-called moderate quali ties it acts as an irritant and a poison. ANDY CATHARTIC ALL DRUGGISTS I RdflT IITPT V ritlP ISTyPTl eof coMtlpatloa. Cssrawts are tna weal uu pie and booklet free.
