What influence, if any, docs the | 1
t,0n bave on the seasons? This is a
,g mooted question, andas to bow
gni lc answered by different people
Fpends entirely upon cincumatancetj?
por n?tancc, if a man's father be
eved io the moon before him, tbcn
Lis pretty apt to believe in it him*
Tjjf, If he was raised in ignorance or
?isregaid of thc traditions respecting
?e moon, then he is likely to continue
jkt way. That is, unless there j i
houlu happen, at sometime, some i (
Euident that serves to furnish strong
j convincing evidence ono way or
e other.
I am not a farmer. I know nothing i \
[bout the moon. Until recently, I ? i
(??d not know that thc first two quar
ks of the new moon were called the
light,'1 and the' last ,two quarters
[?ere called the "dark." All my life
have heard farmers talking of
planting in the moon;" but not being
jjble to understand how the moon
?U?j exercise influence on crops, I
kave been disposed to dismiss matters
relating to the moon as idle supersti
tion. Recently I have undertaken to
?avestigate the matter, and while I
?.ave not been able *.o learn anything
?bat seems to be Of practical value to
ybody, the result of some of :ny in
jioirics have been somewhat interest
I know very little more now,
Cowerer, than I did before.
Not having at hand any literature
a the subject, my investigations took
I* vb ape of a series of inquiries of
iifferent people who were supposed to
[? more or less versed on the prevail
D? theories. One of the first men I
?appened to speak to was a learned
linister of the gospol. He said,
Well. I really do not know much
bout the influence of the moon on the
easons; but I suppose it has some.
[or instance, if you will read Deute
oDomy, xx xiii, 14, where Moses was
ovoking his last blessings on the
hildrcn of Israel, you will find this :
And for the precious things of the
?fruits of the sun; and for the precious
binga of the growth of the moon.'
Joing on to Psalm civ,'19, you will
jSod this: 'He appointed the moon
or Heasons.' " ...
Some people believe that every word
ii the Bible is inspired, and that it
neans just what it says. I am not
;oiog to discuss that now; but I thank
he good minister for his references.
The quotations at least shoi? that the
)elief with regard to the influence of
:he moon on crops is a very old one.
[t is net confined entirety to the igno
r?t and superstitious^ Intelligent
?eople, even if they ard unable to give
> satisfactory "wiry," seem to have
<ery good ground for believing as they
lo.
Next, I made inquiry of a well edu
cated man who had been a farmer all
bis life; but was not certain as to how
such importance to attach to tie in
fluence of tho moon. * He said to mc:
"Most of my neighbors believed in thc
noon more than in the seasons, and
?ere not disposed to plant until the
soon was right. I wrote to the North
Carolina Experiment station and asked
them to give me whatever information
they migH 'ha.e oa V. subject.
Their reply was to the effect that
while there is no doubt that, the moon
bas more or less influence oa crops, I
!isd better go ahead and plant when
ever I should find it convenient to do
o, for they did not think that tho
influence of the moon was great enough
o make much difference." '
Several farmers ?6 whom ! talked
[vere of opinion, that Iho moon had no
nfluence whatever on the crops;.hint
they were unable to give positive proof
Br even reasons. 'Others believed in
the moon with exactly the same kind
rf faith. Bet while there were many
who did not think that the moon1 in
fluenced crops,. , there were.qtiito? ?
number who thought it certainly in
fluenced the quality of timber. Nine
jut of 10 said that timber felled in the
Jark of the moon would continuer wot
and sobby, impossible to seaaoo, while
timber out in the Irght of the moon
would season quickly and become light
and dry. Only a few gave testimy to
the effect that tbey had over gotten
[opposite and porfectly satisfactory re?;
.?lits from timber out in tho "dark" of
?he moon. One man, however--and,
?e is intelligent and reliable--naid
that he had felled, timber in the dark
of tho moon and had it to season as
nicely as any ho had ever seen.
One of the most positive disbeliev
ers in the moon theory was an old
gentleman who is botweori 70 and 80
yeara of ago. He ba? been.engaged io
faming much of his life, and has
always t been recognizedof an unusu
ally investigating turo of mind. He
9*ys that ' ho has noted the, ; moon su
perstition with moro or jess humor all
his lifo. He calls it a superstition,
because ho is convinced th at it is ?neb,
*sd started on his career with that in
formation as a part of his stook of ex
perience. Hero ia the story with

Inquirer.
lis day and time, my grandfather was
coked upon by bis neighbors as a
nan of much mor? than ordinary in*
elligence. He was not what Von
YOU ld call an educated man ; but still
ie could read and Write, and keep ac
:ounts, etc. He was a farmer all bis
if e. and up until bc was 80 years of
ige worked in thc field at whatever
vas to bc done. He was a great be
iever in the moon, and what he did
lot know about the moon's influence
m crops, nobody else knew. He
vould not think of planting, killing
logs or doing anything else that the
noon is supposed to have control of,
mless thc moon was right. After he
vas forced, by age, etc., to quit his
ictive labors in the field, he continued
:o direct ?operations, saw that proper
.espeot was paid to the moon, and
?ept a careful diary of everything that
vas done on the farm, showing just
vhere the moon was when different
?rops were planted. He kept this up
'or 20 years. He lived to be 101
> ear.s of age. Well, about a year be
fore he died, he was entirely convert
ed. To his children, grand-children,
friends and neighbors, he repeatedly
nade this observation: 'Well, now I
am a hundred years old. and I have
inly reached that age to discover what
i fool I have been all my life. All
this time, I have believed that the
moon exercised a most important in
fluence on every crop, and during the
past 20 years I have demonstrated be
yond a possible doubt that tts influ
ence on the crop is simply nothing.' "
So the old gentleman, who has had thc
benefit of this experience, is thorough
ly convinced that there is absolutely
nothing in the moon theory.
Ordinarily this might be taken to
settle the whole question; but still I
was not satisfied. I had heard of an
other intelligent farmer who had tho
reputation of being not only thorough
ly info, med as to the influence of the
moon; but who could give me some
facts and figures. I had a talk with
him and-he got me all mixed up again.
"I have been noticing the moon for
30 years," he said, "and it certainly
exerts not only a wonderful influence
on timber, but on all manner of crops.
And why not? Your geography
teaches you that the moon influences
thc tides, and if it influences the
tides, why uot other things? No,
cannot give you reasons; but I can
give you something that is better-I
mean facts.
. 4 When I was a young man growing
up, I did not believe much in the
moen. But one day an old gentleman
who did believe in it, ga.'e me the
whole theory,' etc. I Was going to
build a fence, and he told me to cut
my timber in the light.of thc moon.
It was convenient to carry out his ad
vice and I did as he said; but as I
wanted to satisfy myself a little fur
ther, I experimented some. I. wen*
out in the dark of the-moon, cuta
pine sapling about 20 feet long and
threw it down in a wornout old field.
The next week I cut another sapling,
just like the first L the light of the
moon, also put it ou 6 in the field hy
the sido of the first "At the end of
two years the sapling that I had cut
in the dark ol the moon wa* so rotten
thal iii WOuid nut, hoid up its own
weight, ; while. the other was still
sound. ' 1 cut another sapling in the
dark of tho moon ?nd. let it lie for two
years, at the en? of which time, both
it and the sapling that I had cut in
tho light of the moon.were rotten.
The test was in every way absolutely
fair, and the light of the moon sapling
lasted just twice as long as the other.
"Since then," the gentleman con
tinued, "I have made other tests, not
only for my own satisfaction but for
the satisfaction of others, tfor in
stance I weighed a cord of wood cut
in the dark of the moon in August,
and found that it is 220 pounds heav
ier than a cord of wood cut in' tho
light of the moon during the same
month. Then I tried it again in De
cember, when the sap was all down,
and I found that the difference was
only about 110pounds the wood that
was cut in the dark of thc moon still
bei pg the, h eavi?r.
"It has been niy observation that
there is very little in the general
theory that root crops should be
planted in the dark of the moon and
other crops' in thc light of the moon.
It is a fact that sweet potatoes, for
instance, will .make more vines if
planted io the light of die moon: but
then the potatoes will alco beabout as
good. .1 invariably plant 'oom in the'
dark of the ;uoon. and I lind that it
will weigh 3c>a? two pounds to the
bushel 'more than if planted in the
light of .-the moon. A? to whether
there is any more substance in it, I
am unable to say; but it is a fact that
the weight is there.
"Again: Cut pcavin?s in the dark
of tho moon, . and they will weigh
something like 200 pounds more to
thc two-horse load than if ont in the
light of the moon. I have tried thia
time snd again; but the right time to
out peavines ia in the light of the
moon? They .cure out better .and
make a muoh finer qw ilily of hay."
And so it goes. 1 Snolsome intelli
gent men on one sida and some on the
other. Those who believe in the moon
differ as to details; Hut their belief is
unshakable. Those who do not be
lieve in the moon are not to be con
vinced by statement! of facts, prinoi
pally because the fapis are not aceom
panied by reasons

What One Woman Did.
A working man in the village of
Shannon, III., spent $50 in one of tho
four saloons of the place one evening
recently. His wife, justly indignant,
sought to punish the saloon keepers.
She set a watch over two of the sa
loons on Sunday and took tho name of
every man seen entering. Then she
trent before the grand jury, in session
it Mt. Carroll, and entered complaiut,
giving as witnesses the names of the
men who had been seen going into the
saloous on Sunday. Thc sheriff was
sent to Shannon after them. He
reaehed there between midnight and
daylight, and with the assistance of
the looal constable, routed out four
teen soared men and served subponas
on them. They all went to Mt. Car
roll and testified, and the grand jury
found twelve indictments against one
saloon keeper and one against thc
other. Both pleaded guilty. The lat
ter was fined $50 ; the other one fled
the town in dismay, and his bonds
men will probably have his fines to
pay. The good people of Shannon are
hoping thc spring election will result
in closing all the saloons.
The Difference.
Thc young man who thinks he can
afford to take two or three glasses of
beer or whiskey eaeh day and never
miss the sum he spends, would do well
to reckon up bow much these drinks
would amount to in the course of a
year. Some ten years ago three young
men in Columbus, Ohio, carpenters
by trade, engaged to work for a build
er, promising to stay with him until a
certain piece of work was completed.
They were to receive the same wages,
and were to draw them as they chose.
The work lasted from spring until
Christmas. On the final settlement
one of the young men, who frequented
the tavern and was a pretty hard
drinker, found a balance to his credit
of $2.50. The second, who was a
somewhat moderate drinker, had $11 ;
the third, who was a teetotaler, had
$150. The first and second wore very
seedy clothes and were in debt. The
third had a good suit of clothes and
no debt. Surely total abstinence pays!
-Temperance Banner.
Who Is Responsible?
A quiet, well-to-do neighborhood is
shocked by a horrid crime. An inno
cent life is sacrificed and other lives
are wrecked. "He was drunk," is thc
explanation. That ia the statement
of the immediate cause, but does that
sum up the case ? Is the community
innocent ? Have the people been ac
tive in sustaining the publie sentiment
Against intemperance ? Have they,
hy thc enforcement of the laws, done
all in their power to prevent the sale
of liquors 9 Have drunken men been
arrested and made to suffer for their
crime? Have the people, who are
themselves temperate, felt that they
are responsible for the social customs
of their community and thc personal
habits of those under their care ? Do
they realize that the individual is, in
large measure, the product of the
community in which he has been
brought bp and lives?-Uniteti Pres

Keep Your Top Cool,
i
lt is reported of Armetus Ward that
he once offered his flask of whiskey to
tho driver of the stage on the top of
which he was riding through a moun
tainous seotion. The stage driver re
fused the flask in most decided tones.
Said he: "I don't drink; I won't
drink; I don't like to-eeo anybody else
drink. I am of the opinion of those
mountains: keep your top cool. They
have got snow and I've got brains :
that's all thc difference."
There's a great deal of wisdom in
his remark, "Keep your top cool."
Without a* sound brain man is not
muoh use to the world. Alcohol,
whether in beer, cider, wine, brandy,
of whiskey, is a foe of the brain : and
when it gets there it inflames it and
renders it unfit for use. Be like the
honest stage driver and resolve to
"keepVour ..top cool."-Little Folks'
Paper.

Many a man has gone to a drunk
ard's grave because he could not say
"No." Daniel and his associates
dared to say "No," and would not
drink a glass of wine to please tho

were captives, dependent on his mercy
and his bounty. What was tho re
sult ? They were blessed and honor

A Remarkable Operation.
BINGHAMTON, N. Y., July ti.-An
autopsy waB held this morning on the
body of Rabbi Louis Ginsburg, who
died last night from a knife wound
iofiioted by a negro on the morning of
July 4. Tho autopsy corroborated tho
claims of Dr. F. L. Forker, who per
formed thc remarkable operation of
sewing tho wound in the heart.
Rabbi Ginsburg lived for forty hours
after the wound in the heart was
sewed up, and death is said to have
been due to septic inflammation of thc
pericardium rather than from loss of
blood.
When Dr. Forker reached the place
after the tragedy he found the Rabbi
nearly dead from loss of blood. Du
ring tho operation he transfused into
the man's veins about three quarts of
saline solution to take the place of
the lost blood and keep up life It
was then necessary to cut off one of
the ribs and push back two others in
order to get an opening to perform the
operation. Then, in spite of the flow
of blood, Dr. Forker, assisted by Drs
L. H. Quackonbush and C. G. Colo,
took three stitches in the heart and
stopped the flow of blood.
One of the stitches was taken deep
ly into the muscles of the heart, and
the other two through the heart skin.
As soon as the operation was perform
ed the Rabbi regained* consciousness,
and remained conscious up to the
minute of his death.-Philadelphia
