-i ??in Funny Patent*. Soma of the application? made fo patenta are very amusing, but, howevei funny the idea, if it is ouly original wit! tho applicant, the patent can be secured The rights of tho American inventor an sacred, and no Commissioner of Patent' darts infringe upon them. It will bc bad news to many a housewife to learn that every time sho pricks a hole in an egg with a pic she is violating the patent of an American inventor, but such is the case. Years ago au inventive genius devoted himself to discovering a method to prevent eggs from cracking during thc process of boiling. Ho solved the prob lem by pricking a pin bolo in one end of thc egg, through which tho air in thc shell was allowed to escape, and this pin hole he duly patented according to law. Precisely how he mannges to collect his royalty is a mystery, but the fact remains thnt he has a legal claim for royalty on every pin hole mada in an egg before boiling. An application has recently been made fur thc patent of a machine to prevent young orphan chickens from be'.ng lone ly. This io an invention which should, and probably will, commend itself to Mr. Bergo, Thc inventor claims that hun dreds of chickens hatched out in the artificial incubators become lonely be cause they migs the "Clu 'V ! cluck !" of thc mother hen, which is 'ho lullaby of all well regulated chickens hatched iii the natural way, nnd many aro killed by this loneliness. Lie baa nrrr.nged a sys tem of clock work, which produces a noise somewhat similar to that of the hen, which ho proposes to attneb to tho incubator, and on this machine thc pat ent is asked. A patent hos been issued on a clog for fowls, designed to prevent them from scratching in gardens. It consists of a wire in thc shape of a hair pin, sharp at tho points. This is at tached to tho feet of thc fowl in such a way that, when it attempt* to scratch, the points enter the ground and prevent the claws from reaching it. Hens have ever been the subject of much patient thought on tho part of in ventors. A nest desigued to decoivo them into laying more than ono egg daily, which every respectable bird con tributes to the farmer's larder, has been devised and patented. It baa a false bottom, through which the eggs drop aa soon ns laid, and tho patient lieu, feeling that she hns failed in her duty, proceeds to loy another until her treasury becomes exhausted or she discovers tho deception. A bee hive has been patented, tho doors of which arc attached to tho hen roost in such a manner that when the fowls go to rooot they closo the hivo and thus secure tho inmates against tho ravages of the boo moth, and at daylight, when the hens leave tho roost, tho hive doors are opened and tho bees not nt liberty. Even the faithful borao hno been mado the subjoct of optical delusion by the invcutors. A atent lina been Hocured for what ie nown as n horse fence. It consists sim ply of a wiro frame placed over the bead of the horse, no that when be approaches a fence with the laudable desire of jump' ing it, he BOOS tho wires above his head, mistaken them for par*, of tho fenco, and concludes that it is too high for him tc leap. Unappreciated ; or? Words that Wound, "I wish wo could live as other people do," said n sad-faced wotnnu to me, as sho looked around her plainly furnished room. I looked up at her; tears were visible in ber eyes nnd n look of genuine distress on her fuco. "Elliao," said I softly, fer she wm my good friend and I wae bir guest, "itseems to me that, considering tho start you had in life, Willie ls doing well. You began without a dollar of capital, you remem ber, nothing but your wardrobes, end now you have a little home, almost paid for, and enough to live comfortably on, and your husband is industrious nnd Blondy, and really, 1 think it is enough to oucourngo you ; and then you have only beeu married fivo years." "It would do," replied my friend, "if we wero always in a back woods, I s?p ose ; but here, where everybody else bas as such nico houses and pretty red fur niture in them, I cannot holp being ashamed of mine." "I see nothing to bo ashumed of," I said. "Your carpets aro not linc, but they aro neat nnd respectable. Of pic tures, you have only a few, but they aro well Bolected. Your house is small, but comfortable, and with caro and tact, might be made exceedingly attractive. And besides all this, Ellise," I added, "you possess a something-a jewel, which very many wives. I am afraid, can uover boast of." "What is it?" sho said quickly. "Your husband's,wholo heart." Sho said nothing, but n thoughtful look crept into hor brown eyes. Eyes, too, that wero capable of boing so tender, and of expressing so plainly the happi ness that I know she ought to feel. Was she taking another view of her surround ings? . Would the few feoblo words I bad spoken take root in the heart of this loving, but erring wife, and an tho dayB and years pass blossom and grow until she learns tho meaning of one word appreciation ? Ah, I ^thought} this wife hos yet to learn onoof tue greatest secrets leading to content;.'jnt, viz: Never to compare lots witt . 'loie possessed of largo means, but to familiarize herself with the fact that there are other things that are more essential to truo happiness than houses or lands or money. And she is not alone. There are many, oh, so many, wives who do not esteem ns they should, the virtues of their husbands, tho com forts of their homes ; so many husbands who fail to see through the dross of tem per and irritability, caused by petty cares, tho puru gold that shines through the daily lives of these faithful helpmates. Would that it were otherwise, for the human heart knows no keener slab than to feel that a gift is not appreciated, especially if it be the gfft of tenderness and affection.-LouvnHlte Courier-Jour nal. Piggy and tho Plank. Mrs. Peggy Williams ls an aged color ed lady, residing near Thomson and is vory fal and pious. It is nothing uncommon for her to attend thc revival meeting six nights of the week, and about and sweat till midnight, and then go homo and snore all over the back yard and fifteen acres .of land by sunrise. Sho came to town last Friday morning to take tho train; for Augusta, dressed principally in a black bombazine frock nnd a head . handkerchief. For tho convenience of the public and his own amusement, Hen ry Holligan has placed a thick oak plank across the ditch near the depot from tho high, embankment, and sloping to tho railroad track. It had been raining dur ing the night, and the plank waa wet, out of humor and bristling with aplin tors. But tho good lady stepped fearless ly anon it, and the next instant two huge Band-flippers flashed toward tho zenith, and Mrs. Peggy waved her arms ia' the air, sat down on the plank and started on a .voyago across tho muddy chasm. She Bccmea to be in a great-hurry, and when about half way across'she flew thc track and disappeared. Fortunately no boues were broken, and, with tbe help of the night watchman, Mr. Hadleg, she climbed out and went home. -Tho scene of the accident looks like a demoralized brick? {ard.

TUE HANDSOMEST IS THE DROVE. A Conventntioa Showing th? Vpm and DOWD* of School Teachers In Idaho. When be bad finished with the climate soil and productions nf Idaho, one of the group asked : "How about educational facilities?" "That's the only thing we lack," re plied the old man with a mournful nigh. "We've got schools enough, but we can't keep no teacher." "What'* thc trouble?'' "Well, take my school, for instance only two mile* from tho nearest house, eminently situated on lop of a hill and paying the highest salary. We can't keep a teaches over two weeks." "Do they die?" "Some do, though it's no place for dying. Wo had a young fellow from Ohio, and he met a grizzly and whistled for bim. The grizzly cum. We had another, and a widder run him down and married him inside of a month. The third one was lame, and the Injuns over took him. Then wo died women folks. The first one got married then'ghtbhc lit down there : I took the second about tho middle of the third week, and thc next one was abducted hy a stage robber." "Why don't you get the ugliest, home liest woman you can find-some perfect old terror, like that lantern-jawed, razor faced female over by the ticket win dow ?" ''Why don't we ! Stranger, you Eastern folks will never understand us pioneers in the world-never. That's my wife thc identical school teacher I married, and she was the handsomest ono in the drove !" The Cat. thc Hird mid the Sheriff. A man in our town luxuriates in the possession of throe pet kittens, and he once had a merry, warbling mocking bird, but as all things sui unary must como to un ending herc-a id sometimes very abruptly -so a tragic end came to the birdie. Cat*, as is well known, have n fondness for birds, and these half grown members of thc felino family aro no ex ceptions to thc rule. Ono unguarded night the net songster escaped from its cage and fell an easy prey to tho charm of one or more of these cats. Next morning the irate boss summoned thc three up to court. Ile officiated as judge and appointed Toby, his body servant, sheriff. Tho mipposcd culprits were ar rested and put on tho prisoner?' bench. When tho questions "guilty or not guilty" were put, respectively, two responded with au innocent "mow"nnd tho third made several hasty and angry spits ! as though hot amber was burning its tongue, and attempted a precipitate escape. The sheriff was quick, and brought the fugi tive from justice to a summary halt. Whereupon the sheriff, assuming also the role of State's attorney, innde a oriof ar gument to tho court, contending that as Tommy had neted badly in attempting an escape, it was prima faci? ovidenco of hts guilt. The court agreed to thc im peachment and rendered judgment ac cordingly. "Hut," said tho court, "hold the guilty son-of-u-cat until I whip these two other wretches for fear that thoy may bo particeps criminis." After flogging them soundly and turning them loose ho then sontenccd Tommy to be taken to a barrel near by, around the bung of which a quantity of bees wero swarming, and to 'bo hold tuero until ho was successfully vaccinated on thc nose several times. Tho doomed cat was conveyed to tho place of punishment by tho sheriff, and judging from the frequent and terrific spits, sniffs and shrieks which followed, we could judgo that tho virus "took," and that instanter. Tho proceedings, however, fortunately for tho culprit, came to a sad and abrupt close. A wandering bee-one of those inquisitive fellows who carries a freo lauco-got away from its mooring at the bung-hole, ana went ex ploring up about the facial regions of tho sheriff s bend. He went hind-end fore most! * * * If a gamin wanta tD get a fight on his hands now let him ask tho Baid sheriff if ho noes what caused that unusual enlargement below the oyeal From the Valdotla Times. COTTON SEED OIL.-Cotton seed oil is said to ho aa good in every way as tho imported olive oil, which is very expen sive and usually adulterated. Cotton seed oil is also being substituted for lard in cooking. Much of the lard sold in stores is mado up of substances that would cause tho public to shudder, if they knew what they were. Cotton seed oil is infinitely more healthy and purer. It is also ascertained by those who aro medical authority, that cotton seed oil is oqual to tho best imported olive oil in allaying tho cutaneous irritation caused by the bites of ticks, red bugs, and other insects that, although they uro never in vited, always manage to bo presont at picnics, at this season of the year, and tnko an uctivo part in the ceremonies. It itt stated that cotton seed oil has been used in another lino of business, so to speak. A traveling preacher by the ?amo of Barnes is performing miraculous eurea in Tennessee. Ho cures afflicted people of pride: freckle*, stiff necks, rheumatism, evil tongue, red hair, itch for office, apoplexy, and n number of other maladies of a still more serious character. The miraculous cures are performed by annoiuting the guilty party with oil, and cotton seed oil answers the purpose better than any other. If Hames comes to Texas, and undertakes to cure all those Buffering from itch for office, he ? will need a great quantity of oil, and a rise in price may bo looked for.-7V.ro?
