Some Valuable Suggestions to Dairymen, Butchers, Tanners and Farmers. Few dairymen or butchers realize the actual loss to them in improperly removing lides, | and it is a matter of the greatest importance to the tanner or hide dealer, that they should | be shown how to do it to the best advantage, as by so doing better prices may be ob- | tained. With a view to showing the right and wrong way of taking off skins, THE TRADESMAN presents a couple of illustrations which very plainly illustrate the matter, together with the accompanying instructions: In the first place, don’t kill a calf until it is at least three days old. In taking off a hide or a calf skin, never cut the throat crosswise in the least. Slit the skin from the brisket to the tail, and from the brisket to the jaw; then cut around each leg near the hoof. Slit the hind legs from the hoof up direetly over the gambrel, and the forward legs in the front, directly over the knee, to the top of the brisket bone. This leaves | est was a new revelation. the hide or skin in the proper shape for finishing. Skin the head and legs carefully, | to avoid eutting them; then, com- mencing at the head, draw or fist off the skin without any further use of the knife, thereby avoiding the holes and cuts that almost spoil so many calf skins, Some farmers use a windlass to draw off their dairy skins, and others use a horse; but oue or two men can do it quickly and easily. When taken off, lay the hide or skin flat upon the floor in a cool place, where the sun cannot shine upon it, and cover it Don’t roll it up, but let it remain THE WRONG WAY. after being dried out, before delivery to the tanner, even if salted, watch them carefully to detect any indications of moths or worms on the hair side; and if any are discovered, skins vigorously whipped with a stick so often that they shall be wholly eradi- cated from the entire lot of skins, as they often work serious injury in a very short time.

Grand Rapids, Mich. 24 Pearl Street = - which my imagination turns into a fanciful picture of a miniature forest. It is the old “hetchel.” Few young’ readers of to-day ever saw it, a fact favorable to my use of it here. The hetchel is one of the oldest im- pressions on my brain. Its long, straight, stiff, steel teeth were full of music, and I often got my fingers rapped for playing onit. Old people of to-day who passed their childhood in country homes may recall the hetchel, on whjgh their mothers or grandmothers combed and dressed the silky flax preparatory to wrapping it like a liberty eap around the distaff, from which it was spun off upon the bobbin on the little spin- ning-wheel. My hetchel was composed of long steel rods, about a quarter of an inch in diameter, and six or eight inches long, firmly set on end in a solid hard-wood bed. These rods, set close and covering a space about eight or ten inches square, were open at the top and formed a comb through which the flax was dexterously drawn to work out all the short and imperfect fibers. How tall and straight those wires seemed to me for their size, and how curieusly the spaces be- tween them would mix and cross and wind away and twist my eyes as I tried to follow them! Well, my pine forest is a gigantic hetchel-board witha huge ‘“scutching” of dark flax lying all across the tops of the pines only waiting for some giant grandmoth- er’s hand to draw it through; and as 1 wan- W.

There is a peculiar solitude in a pine for- est. Alone upon the shore, the restless break of the waves makes ceaseless voices that wake companion yoices in the mind. Alone upon the sea, the incessant change of its surface, the splashing waves as your boat MICH. pine woods, for you can see hundreds of | ‘ dashes across the wind, or the idle flap of her sails as she rises and falls to their lazy 'yoll under the summer sun, load the flying hours with delightful dreams. But the pine forest is alone. Time was when here the searce hunters found abundance of game where nowlIsee and hear nothing, save when the wind blows by, and high overhead througb which it is driven. This, indeed, is a varied sound, for at times it seems like a gentle prolonged sigh and again, like Niag- ara’s roar; or breaking waves pounding up- on rocky shores are not louder nor more wild. But when the air is still and you stand alone beneath the pines no other soli- tude can compare with it. Above, below, all peace! Silence and solitude, the soul’s best friends, Are with me here, and the tumultuous world Makes no more noise than the remotest planet. The tall, dark columns all around you, the darker ceiling of the darker branches inter- mingling and blinding the sky above you, the utter absence of living things within range of your strained vision, all conspire to excite a sensation so new that you do not understand it foratime. I can almost un- derstand, as it seems to me, how the ancients came to people forests with imaginary life; for as Llook around me among the silent trunks, I feel the ancient impulse burning in my veins, and half expect to see elf or dryad beckoning me away. The silence ex- cites imagination in her recesses and the Qld becomes New; Ancient is Modern; I am a Pagan, like mty ancestors, and at home. I become familiar with the trees. They know me and seem to shake hands. Iam _ wel- come among them. They tell me of the past. The inroad that civilization is making upon these grand old trees seems almost like sac- rilege and murder; yet saved they cannot be. “Free lumber” will not prolong their existence. They are doomed by the spread of the farm. The pioneer farmer carries a blazing torch, and whenever he stays his march in search of land there a fire begins. The lumberman who owns pine lands must cut his forests to save them, for no power can stay this persistent pioneer in search of ahome. He means destruction to all wil- dernesses; he is the forerunner of civiliza- tion; the pulsing life of the grasping world is behind him and the forest-primeval must disappear. But in spite of world and pioneer I have seen my pines, and though civilization destroy them, yet shall they live in memory. 1 recall a memorable ride among the pines. One day a foreman invited me to ride with h'm to a camp some fifteen miles away, and I gladly accepted the opportunity. N ine miles of the ride led through what might strictly be termed ‘‘unbroken wilderness, ”’if such a thing can be found. Here and there L hear its breath as it is torn by the needles |. was a small opening, where the ‘pine had been cut and the brush burned, and there were two or three of these spots where cour-_ ageous men had set to work to make farms. | It seemed to me asif they might as well have | | gone to work to make a hew earth ! But | what made bard farming made a most sub-_ lime picture to one unto whom the pine for- | For miles we drove in and out alonga narrow road with the trees so close that it required the strictest attention of our sylvan Jehu to carry us through without collision. As far as I could see across the snow, that lay smooth and unwrinkled like a spotless counterpane, rose the fair round columns of pine. Throwing back the head, one saw the branches reaching out to one another far overhead, interlacing and crowding to form | adark green canopy through which there fell occasional glimpses of a sky that seemed to rest upon the trees. ‘The prevailing color is like a soft twilight that seems to express itself psychologically as Silence, but the mo- notony is agreeably lit up here and there by the reddish bark of the Norway pine. The hard-wood growth is chiefly beech which, with its smooth, steel-colored bark, mottled with patches of green moss, gives a quiet variety and tone to the picture. The under- growth (thefe is no ‘““nder-brush,” as in a New England forest) is also chiefly of young beeches that, as seen from the road, appear to be from six to twenty or thirty feet high. The beech is the most beautiful of our forest trees when stripped of foliage, as they are now, and when only their skele- ton graces woo our admiration. As this tree grows here, among these tall, closely-stand- ing pines, with but little sunlight ever fall- ing upon it, and without hope of any, or of a glimpse of the world, unless it can push its head up through the dark roof that im- prisons it, the beech seems to have set itself earnestly to the work of growing tall. Shel- tered from all winds it does not need strength, and so appears to be giving its whole attention to the development of deli- cacy, grace, and beauty of trunk and limi Its lithe arms taper out from the shoulder long and beautiful, gradually dwindling toa pretty brown bud so finely pointed as to sug- gest the thought that the beeches might be running opposition to the pines in the pro- duction of needles. Every lesser branch, too, of every larger branch has its subordi- nate branches and twigs, and they all taper down in the same exquisitely graceful way to a beautiful brown bud. This under- growth, standing everywhere through the forest, reaches out its long, slender branches in every direction until they mingle, touch, cross and interweave in all possible angles, curves and inclinations. On every branch, twig and spray hang thousands of the dead, rust-colored needles that have fallen from the pine, and there form a seemingly intang- ible fringe of color. Looked at from a dis- tance of a few rods, or as the picture deep- ens away from you into the background, it seems like nothing so much as an immense but strangely beautiful veil the effect of which is to soften and tone down the heavy, dark figures of the pine that seem to stand behind it, while in fact they are in the midst of it everywhere. This vision begins and ends with the dense forest. Shut your eyes and open them upon the same spot again and again, you cannot be certain that you have ever seen the picture before, that while you even winked the scene was not changed. No whirling kaleidoscope ever presented a more varied picture of material always the same than does this silent panorama of the wilderness. As I saw it first it seemed to me that nothing could be added to it, that nothing could be more beautiful, and yet it was wholly void of speck or point of gaudy coloring, and no sign of living thing could be seen save in our own company. Not evena ray of sunlight glinted through it, for the sky was overcast with clouds that portended a storm. Indeed, while we were in camp it came on. As we returned in the afternoon over the same road I saw that there had been a transformation. The snow had sifted down through the pine boughs, and in the still air had settled upon and covered every branch and twig of my fancied veil and con- verted it into the loveliest white gossamer that ever hung in midair. I knew that the scene had not been really changed. I knew that 1 had driven through and looked over all that same ground only a few hours be- fore, but another factor had been added, that was all, and the effect was marvelous indeed! Nothing could have been finer. I have seen a quite similar effect produced by a heavy frost under which, in the early morning, the frost everywhere looked as ifa great gauze veil had fallen upon it; but in that picture the frost crystals, standing so much more loosely, show a darker color and less clearly defined lines than are given by the snow, which falls more compactly. So, of the picture, I repeat that nothing could be finer or more beautiful; and nothing like it will ever be seen save in just such a forest under similar conditions. No canvas can ever be made-to show it, for no artist can ever carry its magnitude away with him. The trees are too tall, the vistas too deep, the perspective too far, to be manipulated on canvas. Nature defied Art when she built this magnificent forest of pine. Looked at from the outside and seen from - ¢ a distance, such a forest seems like a belt of night bound around the waist of day.— Looked at from within, it seems almost to be a community of individual, though mute, lives. The Pines are “daughters of the gods,” Divinely fair, And most divinely tall! So sings my soul, and I, nothing loth, have found at their pagan shrine,if not the peace, at least a piece of Heaven. <> }-

Shuttleworth in the Canadian Pharm. Journal. A note in a foreign journal has called the writer’s attention to a method for dissolving resins which he has used successfully for some fifteen years, but whi¢gh may not be generally known. It was first employed in making shellac varnish, when large quanti- ties of that compound were required for ex- port to the United States, and has many ad- vantages over simple maceration, the princi- pal being the saving of time effected. The method is really a modification of Burton’s circulatory displacement, though it does not appear that the discoverer of that plan ever applied it to the solution of resins. In ease of the solution of shellac the resin is put in a tin vessel, preferably of conical shape, and perforated plentifully with holes of at least one-quarter of an inch in diame- ‘ter. The vessel is suspended by three cords —as a scale-pan—and through the -point of Board of Trustees—The President, wm. H.| intersection of the cords a stick is passed, so Van Leeuwen, Isaac Watts, Wm.

One of the most peculiar cases of poison- ing on record occurred at Messrs. Hazeltine, Perkins & Co’.s wholesale drug establish- ment, last Thursday afternoon. Having oc- casion to use a quantity of grouud poke root in the preparation of fluid extract, Robert W. Hazeltine, the chemist of the establish- ment, carried a quantity of the root to the basement and put it through the grinder. That evening nearly every person employed in the store was taken with a dry cough, ac- companied by a severe congestion of the Jungs, from which they suffered for several days. Thachemist, who stood over the ma- chine, nearly died that night, and has been in a precarious condition ever since. Cus- tomers who were in the store during the at- ternoon were also taken with the same symptoms, and a number of persons who ealled in to chat with members of the firms received something more than a cordial re- ception. The cause of the poisoning was the fine dust which emanated from the mill during the process of grinding, and which filled the air, from which it was carried to the lungs, causing the trouble indicated. Messrs. Hazeltine, Perkins & Co. will buy the ground poke root hereafter. The Failure of the Campion Plan. From the Pharmaceutical Record. The manufacturers who entered into the plan have done in good faith all they could to uphold the project, but the. retail trade and some of the wholesale trade did not give it their hearty support. Much may be said on both sides, and there are those ready to criticise and extend condemnations that are not deserved, but we propose only to say that it was in the beginning an honorable compact to protect the retail dealer against unprincipled competitors. The plan had weak points, and it has failed to accomplish the purpose for which it was honorably formed, and, on the part of most of those pro- prietors who agreed to it, honorably kept. But it no longer exists, and now it must be for the retailer to do as best he can to pro- tect himself. It is doubtful if manufactur- ers will ever again listen to the proposal of any plan to protect him, for there seem to be too many avenues by which to thwart any argument that may be suggested. ——__<—»- o> Dr. G. W. Crouter, of Charlevoix, Presi- dent of the Michigan State Pharmaceutical Association, was in town last Friday and Saturday on his way home from the Grand Lodge I. 0. O. F., at Kalamazoo. He paid his respects to President Wurzburg, Secre- tary Escott and several other members of the Grand Rapids Pharniaceutical Society, and congratulated them on the success already attending the organization. He is confident that the pharmacy bill will receive the sanc- tion of the Legislature, and will spend a cou- ple of weeks at Lansing in the interest of the measure next month. ee The Connecticut State Pharmaceutical Association held its ninth annual meeting at Hartford on the 9th, about sixty members being in attendance. ‘The present member- ship of the society is 246. The Committee on Trade Interests reported that there was little difficulty in obtaining full rates, or nearly so, on all proprietary goods. A com- mittee of three was appointed to report at the next meeting a plain for action whereby better facilities can be secured for the pri- mary education of pharmacists. oa eS nae Representative Wilson, of Muskegon, has introduced a pharmacy bill which is a moai- fication of the bill introduced by Represent- ative Collins, of Detroit. The first section of the first bill is striken out of the new; the section in regard to fhe adulteration of drugs is also stricken out, and the Governor is empowered to choose five members of a Board or Pharmacy at his own will, instead of choosing five out of ten recommended by the State Pharmaceutical Association. nit The New York Druggists’ Union have by yote resolved to suspend the price-list which they agreed to a year ago. This leaves all its members free to sell at such prices as they may choose to accept. oo s When menthol is warmed with sulphuric acid diluted with half its bulk of water it as- vent evaporation, and the whole left undis- turbed for two or three days, when the resin will have been completely dissolved, with the exception of a small portion of an insol- uble tough residue, which should be reject- ed. The resulting solution will be clear. Stirring should be altogether as it retards the process by interfering with the operation of the force of gravity on on which the method depends. The writer has not tried this plan with other resins, but it would, no doubt, be of general application. While speaking of shellac varnish, it may be well to make another useful suggestion, which can also be turned to account for oth- er spirituous varnishes. When such are ap- plied to surfaces at a low temperature or in a damp atmosphere, the film often becomes dull, or “chills,” as it is technically termed. If a few lumps of ordinary carbonate of am- monium be placed in the varnish and allow- ed to remain a few days, this disagreeable result may be ayoided. orless varnishes for photographie use this hint will be found applicable, and is worth remembering. ee ee ee How to Induce and Help Study by Clerks. From the Pharmaceutical Record. A very practical solution of this poblem came to our observation a few days since. Meeting a friend, a Massachusetts druggist, he gave in the course of conversation the suggestion he had adopted in his business relatiye to encouraging study by his clerks. Certain books were purchased for them, and they were to own them by paying for them in small weekly installments—usually twen- many hours per week to their study, plan was arrauged for their guidance. We ask any employer whether his clerks would have any less respect or less value to him if such a rule were adopted in his store? Employers are in a great measure responsi- ble for the number of ill-conditioned, mis- erable specimens of clerks that are to be found too freely. this stated above be adopted, and we shail soon raise the capacity of clerks, and our Boards of Pharmacy will have fewer to re- ject as incompetent than they must honestly do now. pe All petroleum is now being subjected to rigid examination by the government au- thorities of Germany for the purpose of hay- ing it conform to certain requirements res- pecting to inflammability. At the ports of entry the petroleum is examined and the barrels stamped, but dealers in the article who receive the same are expected to see to it that the oil answers the requirements of the Government, and to submit the petrole- um to a second scrutiny, as the first is con- sidered to be somewhat superficial. This entails expense upon the merchants unne- cessarily, it is claimed, and is giving rise to much complaint in certain quarters. ——~ a | The Drug Market.

Butter is the mature fruit of the full- blown cow. It is the greatest effort of her life. The cow toils not, neither does she spin, yet I say unto you that Solomon in all his glory could not beat her on hand made milk-maid butter. This subtle joke 1 have repaired and newly upholstered for use dur- ing the winter. Butter comes from the cow . ina liquid state. It is quite a trick to win her confidence so that she will yield it up to a total stranger. I once sought to woo the lacteal fluid from the milk retort of a large speckled cow to whom I was a comparative stranger. She wasn’t one of those blooded cows that look as though they have been cut out of a sheet of paper with a pair of sissors. She was a low cow, with course instincts, born in obscurity. Her brow was low, but she wore her tail high and she was haughty —oh, so haughty. The young man who had hitherto acquir- ed the milk from this cow desired one even- ing to hie him away to a neighboring vil- lage, where he might trip the light bombas- tic toe till the wee swa’ hours anent the twa. (Quotation froma poet who wasa poor speller.) He wanted me to milk his large speckled plebeian cow, and I said I would. The movement was certainly ill-ad- vised. I undertook to do as J agreed, but failed. From the moment I entered her stall and made acommonplace remark to her I knew our acquaintance would not lead to a warm attachment. Somehow I felt con- strained and uneasy in her society from the moment we met until loying friends pulled me out through the stable window and brought me back to consciousnesss. I shall never undertake to milk a strange cow again until the sign is right. So far the sign has not been right. I might be sent ona polar expedition and get stranded on an iceberg, with no alternative but to milk a cow or eat an old friend, but 1 should hate to tackle the cow unless the friend was a very old friend, indeed. Butter is produced by expunging the juice from a rare and costly chemical known as. cream. Cream is the head on the milk. Milk is known as dry and extra dry. A good milkman will always ask you whether you want your milk wet or otherwise. An old well-digger named Grady told me about going over into Southern Indiana at at one time to dig a well for a man named Wilhum. Wilhum was said to be very close. He was the most contiguous man in Indiana. His wife used toskim the milk on one side, and then turn it over and skim the bubbles off. It was a constant struggle be- tween Wilhum and his wife to see which would be the meaner. The first day that Grady was there they had a round ball of butter about as big as a lemon aud as hard as Pharoah’s heart. The butter knife had a handle that would turn every time any one tried to get a lick at the butter, and the little round ball would flop over on the other side and smile. Now and then a hired man would reach over with his own knife and make a slash at it,. but the butter, confident of his own strength, would tip over with a dull thud, and the man would heave a sigh and give it up. Then another farm-hand would make a wild dash at it, but burst into tears and quit. Finally Grady, who had watched this performance several days, jab- bed his fork down through the middle of the yellow chunk and successfully cut it in two. In the center, was a small, solid wooden top. ‘There,’ says Grady, “I’ve found out what the blamed thing is wound on, anyhow.”—Bill Nye. eg Creamery vs. Dairy Butter. Prof. L. B. Arnold, in the New York Tribune, in a comparative article, says: Though creameries, as generally carried on, fail todo exact justice between their patrons, they are on the whole profitable. While they make no better batter tnan can be made in private dairies, they never make any aS poor as many of the private dairies do. Creameries turn out butter of a uniform grade and excellent in quality, while no two dairies make butter alike, which is very much against the commercial value of dairy butter. No deal- er can pay as much for an assortment of all kinds of butter as he can for butter of a uni- form quality. On this account he prefers to give from five to ten cents a pound more for creamery than for dairy butter, and this dif- ference makes the creamery system pay. The cost of manufacturing is Tess at the ereameries than in the dairies, and the for- mer average more butter from a given quan- - tity of milk because they employ better ap- pliances and more skill. Creameries also pay by way of relieving the farmer’s wives and daughters of a great deal of very hard work. They are, however, not so important in this respect as they were a few years ago. The improvements which have been made of late in butter-making appliances have made- it possible to raise cream quite as well and - as perfectly on the farm as it can be done anywhere, and to do all the work of butter- “making with great ease and with much less labor than it was formerly done. —— re oOo S.

Success comes‘of that thoughtful, honest care, called common sense. Dairying requires study. The wise dairy- man will therefore study his business. One unhealthy cow. ina herd, or one whose milk 1s abnormal, will act unfavorably on the whole mass. Water containing living fish and living vegetation is generally in a fit state for ani- mals to drink. Selection of cows is important in all dair- ies where high caste and uniform excellence is to be made certain in the product. A herd of a uniformly high elass of dairy cows will pay a better profit on their estimat- ed value than any other kind of stock. The greater the number of persons con- tributing milk and cream to a central fac- tory, the less uniform and more inferior will be the product, either of butter or cheese. It is not always necessary to taste butter in order to judge of it. The smooth, unctu- ous feeling in rubbing a little between the finger and thumb expresses at once its rich quality. As good butter can be made in any farm dairy as in the best constituted creameries, if attention is paid to the surroundings, food, water, care of animals, milk, butter, packing and preservation. Cheese can be more perfectly made in large establishments than in smallones. Its manufacture requires wider knowledge than that of butter; the fixtures are more costly, and the manufacture more intricate. Definite species of animals seek definite species of plants; hence dairy cattle should never be forced to graze pastures close. Horses will eat plants refused by cattle, sheep those refused by other farm stock. England imports nearly $25,000;000 worth of cheese a year. The average price paid for the imported article is a little less than eleven cents per pound. Canada sends a higher priced article than the*United States, and the largest amount of any one country, in comparison with previous years. The in- crease from the United States has been slight, and the product of Holland cannot compete with American cheese. Rolling, arable lands form the best pas- tures, because they support the greatest va- riety of valuable herbage. The grasses and plants of Jow, wet places are rank and innu- tritious. Weedy pastures cannot form first- rate milk. Old pastures are more valuable than new, and, the greater the diversity of plants, the more valuable the pasture. The best stock water is that of living springs; the next, that of running streams. Fully equal to these, with the exeeption of hardness, is the water of wells free from sur- face drainage. The worst water is that of slack streams and stagnant ponds. No ani- mal naturally seeks impure water, whatever may be ignorantly said to thecontrary. All domestic animals instinctively seek soft wa- ter, and, hence, will take the water of pools, if pure, in preference to that from wells. Cows, especially, dislike very cold water. Purity in butter and cheese constitutes its chief value in the markets of the world. It may be perfectly pure after it has lost the fragrance imparted to it by the nature of the food taken. Any peculiarity of herbage or other food is imparted to the milk. Poisons may be conveyed to milk in food. The chief value of butter over fat oil, lard tallow, etc., is the presence of grateful odor. This may add from 25 to 50 per cent. to its value. It does not involve 3 per cent. in the cost of manufacture. The quality of food, there- fore, taken by cows, is the prime integer in the integrity of milk; but, if impure water is drunk, the integrity of the food ‘is nullified. The second necessity in the care of. milk is cleanliness in all of the surroundings and manipulations; for, without this, whatever good the milk. contains is covered up and yitiated. The third integer of value is the mechanical acts connected with dairy manu- factures. Parties in want will do SHEDS well to write or see the MAND RAPIDS GRAIN AND SEED (0. 71 CANAL STREET.

Brief Digests of Recent Decisions in Courts of Last Resort. Promissory NorE--RENEWAL—DEFENSES. The mere renewal of a note with a stipu- lation for a higher rate of interest, where all consideration except that supporting the old note is excluded, does not preclude any defense thereafter discovered which existed against the old note, according to a decision of the Kentucky Superior Court. Bonp—V ALIDIT y—OL ERICAL MISTAKE. In the case of Warner vs. Roeher, decided by Judge Gresham in the United States Cir- cuit Court, at Chicago, the figures and words “5000 and—cents in lawful currency,” were held good notwithstanding the clerical mis- take of omitting the $ mark. Judge Gres- ham said that to hold the bond void for such an omission would be too technical for jus- tice. 2 CONDITIONAL SALE-DELIVERY—PAYMENT. Where the payment of the purchase mon- ey of goods and thé delivery of the same are expressly or impliedly agreed to be simul- taneous and payment is omitted or refused by the purchaser upon getting possession of the goods, the vendor may reclaim them, ac- A 4 cording to a decision of the Supreme Court o w . e rectly to himself. e ® the contents of a country store. of Minnesota. MARRIED WomMEN—PROPERTY—DEB?. In Kentucky, according to a recent decis- ion of: the Court of Appeals of that state, the wife’s property may be subjected to the payment of money borrowed by the husband and applied in improving it, although the husband and wife have separated and the property is not more than sufficient to sup- port her and her children. PERSQNAL PROPERTY—SALE. The unqualified delivery and acceptance of the possession of personal property com- pletes the sale and gives the buyer the abso- lute right of property and possession in the thing sold, though the price be unpaid and the buyer insolvent, unless the whole trans- action is vitiated by fraud, according toa decision of the Supreme Court of Indiana. PROMISSORY Nore—MorrTé ace —INTEREST. Where a note due twelve months after date provided that it should bear “interest from date, payable semi-annually,” and a mortgage executed to secure the note de- scribed it as “bearing interest until paid, said interest to be paid semi-annually,” the Ken- tucky Court of Appeals construed the two instruments together as constituting a con- tract for the payment of interest semi-annu- ally until paid. PuBLIC OFFICER—SALARY—CREDITORS. The salary due from a municipal corpora- tion to an officer thereof cannot be reached by proceedings supplementary to execution by the creditors of the officer, according to a decision of the Supreme Court of Minneso- ta. The court declared that public policy forbids that any legal proceedings on the part of creditors should be allowed to inter- fere either directly or indirectly with the payment of the salary of a public officer di- CoRPORATIONS—ULTRA VIRES. An association organized under statutory authority “for the mutual protection and relief of its members, and for’ the payment of stipulated sums of money to the families or heirs of deceased members,” is not au- thorized to issue certificates of membership payable to the named beneficiary ‘or as- signs,” nor payable in case of death to others than the family or heirs of the insured mem- bers, according to the decision of the Ohio Supreme Court in the case of the State of Ohio ex re]. Attorney-General vs. The Peo- ple’s Mutual Benefit Association. SALE—DELIVERY—ATTACHMENT. In the case of the Citizen’s Savings Bank vs. Miller et al., decided by the Kentucky Superior Court, it appeared that an Ohio firm owning staves in Kentucky, in the pos- session of an agent, sold them to appellant. The agent having received from appellant - an order from the firm to turn over to it the staves in his custody, furnished it with a list of staves which were piled up at different places, and then became its agent to retain charge of them for it. The court held that this was asufficient delivery of the staves to vest the title in appelant as against a credit- or claiming under a subsequent attachment, and that it was not necessary to remove the staves from the places where they were, there being no such visible possession by the non-resident vendor as could possibly indi- eate an existing or continued right in him. RE INSURANCE-RESTRICTIONS LN Policy. The case of the Pittsburgh Insurance Co. vs. Frazer, decided by the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, involved a question as to the liability of the insurance crmpany for a loss by fire. The contract of insurance was against fire on dry goods, groceries and mer- chandise usually kept in a country store, /and contained a provision restricting the amount of gunpowder to be kept in the in- sured premises. Upon the trial in the court below evidence was admitted to show that gunpowder in the quantity kept by the ap- pellee, although greater than the amount al- lowed by the policy, was usually a part of The Su- preme Court, on appeal, held that the court aes erred in admitting this evidence, and the clause restricting the amount of gun- powder should be strictly complied with. PARTNERSHIP—DISSOLUTION—NOTICE. Where a partnership had dissolved, no no- tice of a dissolution being given, and a for- ‘mer customer sold goods to the partner re- maining in business, and such partner signed his own and the name of the retiring partner toa note given in payment for such goods, the Supreme Court of Indiana held that the note bound both partners. The court held that in order to establish the lia- bility as partners of persons who had. dis- solved partmership three things must appear, viz.: First, that the plaintiff at the time the | contract was made under which his claim accrued knew that the Gefendants had been in partnership; second, that he was ignorant of their dissolution; third, that he made the contract supposing he was contracting with the defendants as partners, and in reliance on their joint liability. PROPERTY TAKEN BY UNITED STATES. Where property to which the United States asserts no title is taken by its oEOrs | or agents pursuant to an act of Congress as | | private property for the public use, the gov- ernment is under an implied obligation is | make just compensation to the owner, ac: | eording to the decision of the Supreme | Court of the United States in the case of the | United States vs. The Great Falls Manufac- | turing Co. The Supreme Court took the) view that such an implication being consist- | ent with the coustitutional duty of the gov-| ernment as weli as with common justice, the | claim of the owner of the property for com- | pensation was one arising out of implied | contract, within the meaning of the statute | defining the jurisdiction of the Court of Claims, although there might have’ been no | formal proceedings for the condemnation of | the property %o public use; and that the | owner might waive any objection he might be entitled to make, based upon the want of | such formal proceedings, and, electing to re- | gard the action of the government as a tak- | ing under its sovereign right of eminent do- | main, might demand just compensation for | the property. LIBEL—ADVERTISEMENT. The case of Zier vs. Hoflin, decided by. the Supreme Court of Minnesota, was an ac- | tion against the defendant for the insertion | in a newspaper of the fellowing advertise- | ment: “Wanted, E. B. Z.,M. D., to pay a’ drug bill.” Some third person, it appears, cut out the advertisement, pasted it ona, postal card, and sent it toa young lady to whom the plaintiff was affianced. The court | in holding that a verdict for the plaintiff | should be sustained, said, regarding the | words in question. ‘The only facts suggest- | ed by them standing alone—to wit, that the plaintiff owes a drug bill and that the cred- | itor wishes him to pay—do not necessarily | impute anything wrong to plaintiff. But | words which may be innocent of themselves | may be rendered libelous by the place and | circumstances of their publication, for such | place and circumstances may impress on} | them a meaning and _ suggestion whieh | standing alone they do not have. Thus, | though the words here do not of themselves ; impute wrong, they might be published in | such a place or under such circumstances as | to make them capable of naturally convey-! ing the impression that plaintiff had been | guilty of dishonest practices, either in con- tracting the debt or in withholding payment | of it.” | | { ——__—»> 4+ >___— How Advertising Works. Colonel Pierce, of the Chicago News, gaye, in the course of a recent address to the edi- tors of Indiana, some thoughts with refer- ence to advestising that are well worth re- membering. After premising that a man never realizes the full benefits of advertising until he has placed the matter before the people fifty or one hundred times, the Colo- nel presents this valuable table, which, how- ever is simply an elaboration of the one gen- erally credited to Stephen-Girard: The first time a man sees an advertise- ment he does not see it. The second time he does not notice it. The third time heis dimly conscious of | it. The fourth time he faintly remembers something of the kind before. The fifth time he half reads it. The sixth time he turn his nose up at it. The seventh time he throws duwn the pa- per impatiently. The eighth time he ejaculates: the confounded thing again!” The ninth time he wonders if there is any- thing in it. The tenth time he thinks it might possi bly suit somebody else’s case. “There’s The eleventh time he thinks he will ask | } his neighbor if he has tried it, or knows any- thing about it. The twelfth time he wonders if the adver- tiser can make it pay. The thirteenth time he must be a good thing. The fourteenth time he happens to think it is just what he wanted. The fifteenth time he for a long time re- solves to try it as soon as he can afford it. The sixteenth rather thinks it of it. The seventeenth time he is tantilized to think he is hardly able to afford it. The eighteenth time he sees painfully how much he is in need of that particular thing. The nineteenth time he counts his money to see how much he would have left if he bought it. The twentieth time he rushes frantically forth and buys it.

Antrim county, week interviewing the jobbing trade, The Michigan Tradesman, SOLIMAN SNOOKS, Bore About Drummers—Benetits of Secret Societies. Cant Hoox Corners, Feb. 16, 1885. Mister Editer of Traidsman: DEAR Sin—One thing 1 like about these “Nights of the Road,” is that they are great fellers for secret societies. Most all the drummers belong to every thing that is go- ing from the “Grand Nights of the Diamond Garter’ down to the “Sons of Intemperance.” 1 am quite a hand for all such misterious things myself, so I get solid with all the boys. My old frend Crookston called on me tother day, to see if I needed any drugs and to have a visit. We hada jolly old time. While we was settin in the offiss, a chap cum in and wanted to borrow 2 dollars, on account of a remittance not comin to him as he expected. I told him my 2 dollars I kept to lend, was in now, being sent in the day before by Johny McIntire, but I never lent it except to drummers. He said “thats me.” I gave him the Grand hailing sign of an Odd Feller, which he tumbled to. Then I cum the great “hair in the snoot” grip of a Pythonic. He tumbled. Then Crook give him the G. B. of the Sons of Malta. He was on toit. ThenI tipped him the hair poking signal of a Good Tipler. He smiled and said “H. 0.” This is a chemical term, meaning “water.” Then Crook stuck out his hand and gave him the noted P. D. Q. sign of a Royal Arch Brick Mason. He “got thar” on that. Then Crookston examined him as follers, to make sure he was a drum- mer: “Brom whence comist thou, pard?”’ “Fyrom the lodge of the holey St. Johns, Michigan.” “What seek ye here to do?” “To take a few orders and collect a bill of Bilson.” “Then you are a drummer?” “JTamso taken and accepted by all the boys.” “How may Lknow you to.bea drum- mer?” “By my cheek and my 50 pound sample case. Try me.” “How will you be tried?” “By the squar.” “Why by the squar?” “Becos the squar is a magistrate and an emblem of stupidity.” “Where were you first prepared to bea drummer?” “In my mind.” “Where next?” “In a printin offiss, adjoinin a reglar post of drummers.” “How were you prepared?” “By being divested of my last cent, my cheek rubbed down with a brick, a bunion plaster over each eye anda heavy sample ease in each hand. In this fix I was con- ducted to the door of the post.” “How did you know it was a door, being blind?” “By first stepping in a coal seuttle, and afterwards bumping my head against the door knob.” “How gained you admishun®” * “By benefit of my cheek.” “Had you the required cheek?” “I had not, but Steve Sears had it for me.” “How were you receaved?” “On the sharp toe of a boot, applied to my naked pants.” “What did this teach you?” “Not to fool around merchants’ wives and daughters.” “What happend next?” “J was set down on a cake of ice and ask- ed if I put my trust in mercantile reports?” “Your answer?” “Not if I kno myself, 1 dont.” “How was you next handled?” “J was put straddle of a goat made out of a 2 by 4, and trotted nine times around the room by four worthy brothers and then brot in front of S’Kubeb, the Left Bower, for further instructions.” “How did he instruct you?” “To approach a customer in three upright regular steps, with my business card extend- ed at right angles, my arm forming a perfect squar.” “How was you then disposed of?” “J was again seated on the cake of ice, in front of a dry goods box and made to take the following horrible and binding oath: “‘T Charles 8. Robinson, do hereon and herein most everlastinly and diabolicaly swar, by the Great Bob Tail Flush, That I will never reveal and always stael, all the trade secrets I can, for the use and benefit of this Most August Order. And I further swar, by the Bald Headed Jack of Clubs, that I will never give, carve, make, hold, take or cut prices, below the reglar rates. And I further swar by the Pipers that play- ed before Moses, to never have any commer- cial intercourse with any manor his wife, sister, grandmother, old maid ant or unkle, unless they, he, she or it, is sound on the goose. Binding myself under no less a pen- alty, than to have my grip sack slit from top to bottom, my dirty shirts and sucks taken out and my reputation removed and burried in the river at Pearl street bridge whar the Salvation Army ebbs and flows every 24 ours. So help me Bob Ingersoll and keep me in back bone.’ ” “J was then asked what 1 most needed.” “What was ‘your reply?” “Money !” “What did you then behold?” “A copy of Dunn & Co.’s reports, open at chapter ‘Muskegon.’ Upon the open book rested a pair of drug scales, in one pan of which reposed ten pounds of concentrated lye and in the other sat a small silver jack- ass.” “What did this emblem signify?” “The seales indicated the ballance be- tween debtor and creditor. The other em- blems represented lie-abillities and ass-sets of bankrupts.” : “Did this teach you any lesson?” “You bet! It taught me the fact that the former are generaly so almitey much larger than the latter.” “Shake! Brother! be off, or from!” “Both, if I can borrow money enuf to get out of town on.” “Have you any cigars?” “T have.” “Give em me.”’ “} did not so receive em, neither will I so impart em.” “Tow will you dispose of em?” “On 60 days time or 2 per cent. cash, F. OG. BY’ “All right, begin.” “No, begin you.” “No, you begin.” “Uo.” “am.” “Set: “ ‘Set-em-up,’ the word and sign are right. Bro. Snooks, he is yard wide and all wool and you ean bet on him.” Bro. Crookston and I each lent the chap five dollars and he left with many thanks and kind wishes. Now, you can see by this, what a help it is toafeller, when he gets dead broke among strangers, to have these little things to fall back on. One poor drummer froze to deth tother day, near hear, and several drummers were snowbound at the tavern. I haye embamed the melloneolly occurrance ina poem for Tie TRAIDSMAN. “PEESHNESS.” Written By a Short-feller. The snow was fallin thick and fast, As threw Cant Hook Corners, passed, A chap who bore mid snow and ice A grip sack with this strange device— “Peeshness.”’ x % Will you His sample case was trozenshut, His whisky bottle was, all but, Yet on he dug with might and main, Bound to catch that Eastern train— “Peeshness.”’ “Stop!” cried the landlord of the “Grand,” “Come in and take a poker hand, With Seymour, Beecher, Owen, Price.” Butno! He plead his strange device— *Peeshness.”’ “You had better stop” said Bro. Crooks, “And call on our friend Soliman Snooks,” Butali in vain was this advice, He pointed to his strange device— *Peeshness.”’ “Beware the pine trees’ withered branch, Beware the bugs in Slabtown ranch.” A voice came back from Pottses run “Ime pound to get to Grumbleton”— “Peeshness.”’ Two pious drummers of St. Joe, Next day while wadin threw the snow, Found, cold in death, this Hebrew rash, With one word froze to his mustash— ‘““Peeshness.”’ Being the oldest justiss in the township I had to hold an inquest on the body. The follerin jurors was duly sworn in: Bill Smith Ed. Smikes Ike Huntla Jim Spooner Joel S. Pratt Jake Collins. After they had hearn the testimony of thirteen witnesses, including Dr. Kobb asan expert, who deposed that diseased came to his death, in his opinion, by congealation of the submaxilary conglomeration of the ceribrial circulation, the jury founda verdict that the corps was named Isac Levi Moses and that he died by the visitation of Providence and an over application to ““Peeshness.” Yours secretively, SoLIMAN SNOOKS, G. D., P. M. and J. P. P.S.—The copy containing my fotografi has at last ariv. I tell you that will make some folks stick out their eyes up around the Corners. It looks as near like me as can be. You must have a first-class engraver. 5.5. Married Twenty Years. “As | was walking down street this morn- ing,” observed Jones, “I saw aman drop brass suspender button ina blind beggar’s hat. He detected the fraud at once.” “J don’t see anything strange about that,” replied Mrs. Jones. ‘‘Why shouldn’t he tell the difference between a button and a coin?” “He has considerable experience in coins, I know, but I can’t see how he knew it was a button.” “By the way it felt, of course. Why shouldn’t he tell it?’’’ “Tt don’t think he had felt a button before in twenty years.” “Why not?” “Fe has been married about that long, I believe.” BLANCHARD BROS. & CO MODEL MILLS MANUFACTURERS OF—— Gilt Hive Patent and While Loaf Brands of Flour Good Goods and Low Prices.
