caused the arrest of Fred Brown, for

Mrs. Mary Kinney,' of Ann Arbor,
feeling the present stringency in
financial matters, has kindly asked
the city " fathers to pay her §5.000,
claiming that in June 1892 she received
certain injuries caused by a defective
sidewalk.
An Ann Arbor man has trained a
pumpkin vine oyer his porch, and nbw
when he wants a pie, he simply steps to
the door, gathers in the "fruit" and
the cook does the rest.—Chelsea Standard. According to pretty good Authority another fellow gathered in the
fruit.—Courier.
Courier: Sheriff Brenner has added
a fine fekther to his cap by capturing
the horse thief in Ohio who has _ enriched himself with so many equines
from this vicinity.
Good enough brother Courier, but
did Mr. B. capture the thief, and after
finding his man, and whereabouts of
the property stolen why don't he secure
those stolen goods and return them to
their rightful owners who are or would
be only too glad to receive them.
William Howe found it necessary
Saturday to coniplain of Mrs. Sophia
Rehburg; and her daughter Clara for
using insulting and abusive language.
They were cofavicted before Justice
Westerman and sentence was suspended. It takes a court plaster to
keep in subjection the tongues of some
people. And even this is not sufficient
except it be made adhesive by a big
fine.—Adrian Press.
The Nbrvell Celery Co. is just at
present an object of considerable interest. The firm is busy shipping the
product of 60 acres to New York and
western markets, every stalk of the
crop being contracted. Two refrigerator cars a week are being' shipped, and
the packing house gives employment
to about twelye persons. The 60 acres
are distributed among, about 30 farmers
who bring their celery to the packing
house, receive checks for it and have
no further bother with it. Il goes

A   Slick   Machine.
It is a fact probably unknown to a
great many people that it is only within a very few weeks that monuments
and tombstones have been manufactured from the rough block in this
country. Orders have been filled by
sending to the east for the cut* and
polished slab, only the inscriptions
and some finishing touches being added here. Nbw however, John Baum-
gardner has made an addition to his
plant of machinery which will enable
him to take the rough stone from field
or quarry and make it into the finest
kind of tk polished monument.
This machine in appearance is an immense arnj witb shoulder and elbow
that wci'k sideways, and a wrist that
sticks down below and revolves rapidly,
in the hand is a disk that rests* ou the
stone to be evened and polished and
that disk grinds and smoothes it off
with lightning like rapidity. In fact
it is lightning that does it, the power
coming from a 5 horse power motor
that quietly buzzes away in an adjoining shed. It is an interesting spectacle to see an iron arm with its flying
hand busy at its task.
The Heinzman monument, and also
one about to be put in place for Cal van
Bliss, both in Forest Hill Cemetery,
are made with tbe aid of this machine
entirely from the rough blocks in Mr.
Baumgardner's shops.—Register.

A New Fodder Plant.
If the latest agricultural reports from
Europe are to. be believedi the shipments
of hay -from this country thither mil not
increase to an overwhelming amount
from year to year'. The story i3 that a
new fodder plant has been developed in
Europe-which-will more than take the
place of the lacking hay, and-which can
be grown in any quantity besides.
A yariely of wild pea flourishes all
over Europe 'which has hitherto been regarded as nothing but a noxious -weed.
It has roots that grow sometimes 30 feet
long. It is impossible to kill the thing,
and it thrives on soil that would starve
a goat. Its long,.matted roots prevent
its being affected by drought or anything else. Like most weeds, it produces an immense crop and propagates
itself like burdock on a hillside pasture.
Whether on stony, sandy or swampy
ground the plant will grow luxuriantly.
Its botanical name is "lathyrus sylves-
tris."
In its native state the lathyrus, while
nutritious to animals, contained certain
alkaloids that injured cattle. Some years
ago the experiment was begun of educating these alkaloids out of the plant and
civilizing it down to the use of live
stock. It is now announced that the experiment has been entirely successful,
and that the scientific agriculturists of
Germany offer to mankind a fodder
plant tbat promises to mart for domestic animals an era as distinct as that
following the introduction of the potato
as food forman. The lathyrus is claimed
to contain twice as ihuch -nutriment as
either the alfalfa or red ciover. The
man who tamed it down to civilized
uses jreceived the grand gold medal at
the Munich agricultural exposition in
June.
Too llluch Hard Wort.
The effect of tbo much hard work is
the same, as that of too little—itis brutalizing and demoralizing. It is perhaps a
shocking "thing to say, but the morality
of many of the sons of the nobility of
Europe is fairly on a par with that of
the sons of the slum population of the
large cities.
Balzac wrote ion t a£?o, ••'When toil
exhausts the body, it taken from the
xoind its purifying action, especially
among the ignorant.'" Accordingly,
among that part of the population of
a country which lives in poverty and
sustains its poor life bynnremitting toil,
brutality, uncleanliness and dishonesty
are almost the rule. It is the hod carrier or the street laborer who goes on
prolonged sprees and kicks his wife to
death.
Grinding toil and squalid poverty
bring man to the level of the brute. It
is not from the ranks of those who spend
their lives at hard physical labor that
the inventors, the poets, the great preachers, usually come. It is from that happy
middle rank where there is neither too
much money nor too much hard work.
As the race evolves a higher civilization
it will develop out of the condition of
slavery to mere physical tasks. Th6
farmer especially should realize that the
.more back "breaking toil he can save himself through the intelligent nse of machinery and through other ineans the
more brain and nerve.power he will have
left to use in thinking ont \ ys to better
himself pecuniarily and socially.
The October New Peterson is a fine
specimen of one of cur best magazines.
Its pages range from grave to gay,f rom
instructive to entertaining, and the excellence of its contents is as noticeable
as the variety. The illustrations are
numerorsand of admirable quality, and
the stories, sketches, and poems are
from the pens of leading authors. The
opening paper,;'The Laud of the Dawning," by M. McCarthy O'Leary, is the
-most interesting account of Queensland
that has ever come under our notice
and is illustrated by effective photogravures. Another delightful illustrated

During the prevalence of the Grippe the
past seasons it was a noticeable fact that
those who depended upon Dr. King's New
Discovery, not only had a speedy recovery,
but escaped all of the troublesome after
effects of the malady. This remedy seems
to have a peculiar power in effecting rapid
cures not only in cases of La Grippe, but in
all diseases of Throat, Chest and Lungs, and
has cured cases of Asthmn and Hay Fever
of long standing. Try it and be convinced.

DR. C.  H. CONEXTN.
The Dutchmen in Holland have a way
of teaching languages in school which
makes linguists of the pupils in a short
time. At -the beginning of a given
Week the pupils are informed that
during the next seven days only one
particular language will be spoken. It
may be English, French or German.
Every pupil who makes a break in the
specified time and lapses into Hollandese
is fined so many cents each time. Atthe
end of the week a considerable sum is
realized, which goes into the school library fund. But it does not go there directly. It is auctioned off to the highest
bidder, with the intention that he shall
get back a sum in fines during the next
week equal to it or even greater. Meantime for the coining week he is appointed a superintendent and critic of his
school fellows. He watches their every
slip carefully and collects the fine without mercy. At the end of that week he
turns in the sum he has won, minus his
own gains. A different language is
chosen each week in rotation, so that
many times during the year the pupils
leave one for a time and return to it in a
few weeks. By the end of a year they
have a fair'working knowledge of all the
languages. The f'ollowingyear they take
up the study of the grammar and construction of each tongue. By the time
they are ready to leave school they have
a good knowledge of several foreign languages.      	
On the whole, it is not altogether to be
regretted that there is uo other great
body of public land to be opened to
"boomers" in. tbis country. Therepetitiqn
of the scenes of tfie violence, lawlessness, bloodshed and death that attended
the last opening this country can very
well afford do without, even at the cost
■ of having no more public land to dispose"
of under fhe homestead laws.
