From the time the clay Is dug out of lis bed until it finds its permanent place in some building's vails as a brick it is handled not less than a hun dred times and by more th«.n a score of different individuals. Take into account tho persons ana processes directly and inO'rectly in terested in brickmaking, masonry building and inhabiting such buildings, and the hui»an mind is bullied by fig ures reaching into the trillions—and a trillion is written 1,000,000,000,000! Once made, a brick is pracfically in destructible. Nearly every brick that has ever been made by man from the beginning of time is still in rxlsteuco on this earth. The men who made and laid them and who directed these operations have long since beo6 gath ered into dust. Some of thera have doubtless contributed in their bodies to the making of more bricks. Put the steadfast and enduring square of baked clay persists and will until tlio heavens and earth are shrivelel like a scroll. Upon inscriptions in bricks our earli est knowledge of human histoiy de pends. Kings whose glory lias passed so utterly that all but their names have perished still owe the perpetua tion of these names to a mark In the perdurable brick.—Chieago Journal. THE ALLIGATOR'S JAWS. TlicV Will Open If You Stick Your 1 insert* In IUM Eyi'i. "If ever you have the luck to be caught by an alligator put.l linger In each eye," says an old Australian hunt er. "That will have the effect of mak ing liim open liis jaws, and then you can make the most of your opportunity. There are several known instances of tlie escape of natives I>3' that means. Alligators prefer their food high, so the changes are if you are caught you will be deposit- lon the bottom somewhere. I heard of one native escaping even then. When crossing the rivers the natives carry stout sticks, so if en countered by an alligator tliey can ward him off by shoving a stick down his throat. "That alligators have enormous strength I have evidence besides my own experience. At Port Kssington a buffalo was drinking in a stream when an alligator nailed it by the head and drowuel it. Soon afterward a horse was caugl.t while drinking at the same spot. 11 dragged the alligator about forty yard:? before the brute let go. Mr. P.o'ii: m anchored the body of a horse a little distance out from a cliff <"lose to his camp. In duo time lie had his chance and shot a fifteen foot alligator." ARTIFICIAL FLIES. Tlie Peculiar* HIINIIICNN of tlie Farmer Who Raises Them. "I raise flies on my farm—artificial llies," he said, smiling. "I am, in fact, an artificial fly farmer. "That confuses you, doesn't it? Yet it Is simple enough. I raise birds that give those little delicate bright feath ers that compose fishermen's fiics. That is all. "The finest birds 1 raise are golden pheasants. You have seeu salmon flies? You know their beautiful top pings? Well, those toppings can only be got from the golden pheasant's crest. "At a certain time of the year I gather my golden pheasants around me. I take one between my knees. I pluck out his crest. How mad he gets! I wrap the crest in :-.liver paper. And so I goon till every bird has been plucked. Do you know what I get for these crests? I get $2.50 apiece for them. "I raise mynahs, fiuche.T, mallards, jays and green parrots.

The columbine, geranium and lark spur we think of together because they are all named after birds—tho dove, the crane and tho lark. Tho meaning of geranium is "crane's bill," and if you notice tho seed pods of a geranium you will see that they do look like the long bill of a crane. The touch-me-not gets Its name from a peculiarity of the *eod pod, too, but not a peculiarity of appearance. It is the pod you must not touch, for if you do it will burst, and out Mill fly the seeds.—St. Nich- A ISloori Stick ins* Enrlh^vorm.

Scores of sleds loaded with lime were driven through this city yesterday on their way home from the kilns. Farmers who have lime to haul each winter are very anxious to see snow,as without it the roads are prettj sure to be bad,when the transportation >l' lime becomes a serious problem. Comparatively little lime up to the present had been hauled this winter owing to the bad roads, most farmer.- postponing tho work hoping for a fall >f snow. Yesterday morning they started out in good earnest not a few driving .iinuy miles, from Hush and Gearhart ◦wuships (o County Commissioner C W. Cook's kilns in Valley townshij. Naturally when there is such a rush a? iow there is a great congestion of sled> ibout the kilns and except for tliosi A lio arrive early there is a long am odious wait in store. To obviate tin delay many of the farmers get up : s ■ally as two or three o'clock in tin iiorniug and start for tho kiln in the •ope that they may be among the firsi o arrive. It frequently happens, how ever, that the farmers are all early and ihon the question whose sled shall be ioaded first is decided by the order ol irrival. Patience and good humor gen • •rally prevail at the kiln,and h it causes long hours and long interval between meals, yet hauling lime is work that by no means is disliked bj the young farmers. All that is desirei. is plenty of snow. fpsoins - ~Dr. Oiilm-m's Prescription i i:u i:u ed cue for JJvspopsia. 1 ndisjntstioi. AD IUL K IUUOU trouble. Price 50 Centi. Birthday Surprise Party.

Tho deep snow Friday with the flue sleighing that followed Ims brought the usual amount of good cheer aud pleasure into the lives of the patients it the Hospital for tho Insane, a num ber of whom on Saturday wore treated to their first sleigh ride of the season. Over seventy patients, all females were takeu out at one time. Five large sleds belonging to the farm wore em ployed, each driven by a farm hand. Each sled contained twelve to fifteen patients and with the number one lady attendant. The sleigh ride included a trip out oyer the State highway to Fcnster machcr's corner and back. The pati ents wore delighted, the most of them giving expression to their pleasure by much jolly talk and laughter. They were warmly clothed aud snugly wrap ped up in blankets so that none of them seemed to suffer from tho cold. It was a great relief to the uufortuuate people, who ever since winter set in have for the most of the time been confined behind gloomy walls. An exchange gives the following definition of a gentleman: "The man who is clean inside and outside, who neither looks up to the rich nor down on the poor, who can lose without squealing and win without bragging, who is considerate of old people, wo men aud children, who is too brave to li«', too generous to cheat and who takes his share of the >Vorld and lcta all other pettple litfvfe thrift?* A VISIT TO SONffilDE FAIII Among tlie attendant*! at tliu curb stone market there are none that are Iwtter kuovrn than \V. T. Suter. Al though an ont-of-town resident lie (Ills an important uiehe in Trinity M. E. ehurch ami tnkos an active part iu the social life of our town. If any one should accompany Mr. Suter to his home at Sumiyside farm, Riverside Heights, he will find evidence of u whole lot of enterprise; he will be charmed with the order and arrange ment of tilings and will see iu the de velopment that is proceeding along clearly defined lines infiuite possibil ites for the future. Indeed taking in to accouut the owner's grit and enter prise ho will bo apt to wonder how long it will bo before Sunnysido and its companion farm, Rosemont, will blossom forth into one of the most beautiful private domains in the coun try. On Saturday afternoon the writer accompanied Mr. Suter on a drive ov er his two farms. Suunyside although out of sight from South Danvillo and Riverside lies only a short distance be yond and is very easy of access. A long lane 01 roadway branching off from the main highway a short dist ance beyond the Torreuce homestead loads in a south-easterly direction up to the summit of a mound-like eleva tion clothed with timber,on the "suu uyside" of which reposes Mr. Suter's little farm of eighteen acres. From the summit of the heights down to the buildings tlio road on the left is skirted by timber; on the right is an unbroken line of fruit trees, of all descriptions, many still young, but iorno old enough to yield fruit. On every side are evidences of thrift and wise forethought—a foundation on which greater things may bo built. The cozy residence is the central figure. Near by is a largo windmill accompanied by au immense tank. 11l the picturesque ravine below the build ings is a never-failing stream of wat er, which feeds a large ice pond and iu which a hydraulic ram is installed to re-euforce'the windmill iu its work >f keeping up the water supply. One of the first things to attract the visitor is a large apiary ; the next is a system of cold frames where under the tvarm sun of tlio protected hillside many thousand plants of lettuce, re cently set out, are beginning to grow uicely. Last year Mr. Suter'H bees produced one and one-half tons of honey, which in the market netted him some four hundred dollars. This year Ins apiary is somewhat reduced, there beiu# but orty hives and the product has fallen probably to nearly a ton, a quantity, tvhich will nevertheless net the owner some threo hundred dollars. A feature of Mr. Suter's gardening, which is a real novelty iu this section, is the establishment of a rhubarb cel lar, which is iu a most flourishingcon lition. Here iu a greenhouse artifi cially heated, which instead of being protected by glass is wholly covered over by earth aud in which it is as .lark as tho darkest night, many thou sands of stalks of rhubarb are grow ing. Tho cellar conditions are such as to cause tlio rank fleshy leafstalks to grow with twice the rapidity attained when cultivated in season out of doors. The rhubarb bears the appearance of growing in tho dark,but it lacks noth ing in flavor aud is a better product in many respects. Mr. Suter's fine Holsteiu cattle are tlie real charm of Suunyside. There are ton head of them in all, four being uilcli cows. A visit to Mr. Suter's lairy would bo a profitable object les son for many other dairymen, who might wish to learn how much could be done for the welfare of cattle aud to keep tlio milk produced clean and pure. Tho cattle in Mr. Sutor's stable .ire curried aud they looked as sleek and well kept as the horses. What is more—and is au example that every dairyman might follow with advant age—beforo being milked each cow's udder is thoroughly washed with warm water. The rich milk, thoroughly clean, is taken to the cellar whero a Cooley Creamery—a scientific and mod em invention—aids in its preserva tion until it is brought over to town aud dispensed at our curb stone mark et. Among the fiuo Holsteiu cows at Suunyside are two great granddaugh ters of DeKol 11, whoso record was thirty-three pound, six ounces of but ter in seven days. The two grand* daughters at Suunyside are sustaining the family record very nicely,one hav ing a record of eighteen quarts aud tlie other twenty quarts of milk,daily. "Eiitertainiiifl Made Easy."

I went to a physi cian In Memphis, who claimed that I had dropsy of the heart. He put the X-ray on me, and In connection with his medicine he came near mak ing a finish of me. Some time before this a Mr. Young:, of Bt. Louis, was In our town. He saw my condition, and recommended Dr. Miles' Heart Cure to me.
