RTMay Truthfully Be Said That No
Two Animals or^ Birds Walk
. Exactly Alike.,
55 e horse strikes his ga!t with a
cta&fu]* steady and strong step; the
ms? Is uncertain in its moving, lolling
an* lagging- in its gait. "The lowing
herd winds slowly o'er the lea." The
ass trudges, and keeps a dull eye on
the <?ar_th as it Journeys along. The
sheep trots, and bleats as it passes,
wail*> the goat springs aloft almost
heedless of its footing. The gait of
birds on the level varies a great deal.
Tiber e is a sort of majescie carriage
in .the rook, stepping over a crumbling
furrow. The red-footed pigeon trips
it daintily; the heron stands, as if to
thai, andL moves with stateimess with
in rts narrow bounds. The dog casts
a careless foot scattering dust or nmd
without thought; while the cat ad-j
t?bc<??: a dainty p?w, as if distrustful I
of the ground. The hen scratches, and
pauses to look rotfnd, as if bewildered;
while the peacock lifts its foot with
seeming pride, and as if the earth
were honored by its moving upon it
at all The pig takes ground anyhow,
. and without heeding, turning about,
^careless whether right or wrong. The
little mouse, scurries across the com
,moh path with something of the pas
sivity of a blown leaf; while the rat
assumes the ground to be its own pos
session, and prowls about with. con.fi-.
dsej?ce afid unconcern. Of all animals j
the h&~e bounds .upon the earth as j
^npon ife heritage, and breasts it the
'whole day long. As. Wordsworth not

LAMB THAT GREW. ON TREE]
According to th? Talmud, Remarkable |
Plant Furn&hed Food for Our j
Very Remote Ancestors.
How .often is* the wish/ expressed j
that money grew on trees?- Why not I
k.^pish for lamb to grow that way, for j
^according, to the Latin translation' of !
..Cthe Talmud of Jerusalem, that ancient |
book of law and customs, wonderfully
tender and eatable lamhs did grow on ?
trees.
This work, remarks a writer in the
New York Evening Sun,: tells of. a
*r^ant called the jeduah, which was
formed like a lamb. From a bunch of
^rather coarse, thick leaves there is
-sned steam on which the zoophyte
.grew-, so the story <zoes. In every re
spect it was formed like an animal
suspended on a stalk within the radius:
of which: Jt grazed. It devoured all
i the herbage which It was able to reach
r within the - drcle of its Aether, and
then unless, some overventnrous ani
mal came, near enough for it to snatch
the l*imh would die of starvation.
Our remote ancestors^hunted the
lamh at great risk, f or historians tell
as that the Iamb had not earned its
?putatf?n:for gentleness rhen.\ tft was
extremely ferocious, especially \if it '
~-ha^-extonsted its provender. The
only way. to overcome It was to cut the
stem by well-aimed darts or arrows
sent from a safe distance. Once the
stem was severed the animal fell to
the earth soon to die, and- the suc
cessful- hunter could safely come forth
to carry, bis game back to his cave
home.
Slaves hi- 1756.
Slavery existed in nearly all of the
English colonies from an early period
?shortTy before or soon, after the
utionary war, and the African
trade was openly tolerated by the
British government. In 1756 there
were 292,000 "slaves in the colonies,
scattered from New England to Geor
gia. Slavery was not prohibited! in
Massachusetts nnt? 1780, nor in Ver
mont until IT77.\ Tbk United States
census of 1810 showed 310 slaves in
Connecticut, 10,S51 in New Jersey,
15.017 in New York, 795 in Pennsyl
vania and' 10S in Khode Island.
Slavery was gradually abolished in the
northern states, but In 1820 there were
still 97 slaves in Connecticut, 7,557
In New Jersey, 10,808 in New York,
211 in Pennsylvania and 48 in Rhode
Island. The census of 1850 showed
the disappearance of slavery in all j
the northern states except in New Jer- ;

"The Father of Jests."
**fhe Father of Jests" is Joseph
Miller, an English comedian, who was
born in 1684 and died at London in
1738. The collection of jests known
as "Joe Miller's Jests" appeared orig
inally in 1739 as "Joe Miller's Jest
Book, Or the Wit's Vade Mecum,etc."
It was made by John Mottley and re
ceived its name unwarrantably from
Joseph Miller. It was popularly said
that Joe Miller never made up a joke
In his life and could neither read nor

Immense Rubles.
An immense ruby, weighing 400
carats, is reported to have been found
in Burmah, but it was broken into
three pieces, and the report is that
One of them was sold uncut in Calcut
ta lor $233,333. A fine ruby, known
a* "Groga .Bok," or the Dragon Lord,
weighed 45 carats In the rough, 22
carats jafter the cutting process, and
was said to be the finest o% its size
ever seen. In 1887 a stone of 49
carats was found and in 1890 one of
?04 carats, according to Bauer, who
treats the discovery of the 400-carat
stone previously mentioned as simply

MANY ROADS TO KNOWLSOSE
For Instance, Impudent fake Resulted
in OpeaJng Up the Field of
Electro-Therapy.
Along the road that leads to knowl
edge are scattered man? fake-shops,
which as a role do a flourishing and
profitable business. For. the,. chief
weakness of the human mind, is credu
lity.
But by curious paradox, the foolish
ness factories every now and then
produce something that proves of sub
stantial' usefulness to science.
For example, in New England many
years ago a man named Perkins in
vented, what he? called a ^magnetic
tractor," for drawing diseases; out of
folk. It was shaped like a. pair of
compasses, with one leg" of silver and
the other of copper. When the two
poinis we:e passed over the afflicted
part of the body the Instrument was
supposed by some electrical means;to
alleviate or care the trouble.
The . ?^tractors" .undoubtedly did
benefit mapy people; also Perkins,
who sold them for $5 apiece. They
made such a sensation that scientists
took the matter up, investigating it
thoroaghly and proving that imagina
tion did the work. Blindfolded i per
sons were relieved of pain by the con
tact of a couple of pointed sticks of
wood, whieh they mistook for the in
strument in question.
The whole, business was plain fool
ishness. Nevertheless, the mterejrt:
it awakeifed led to the. first opening up
of the field of electro-therapy, discov
eries of which have proved of such
immense importance to nae^dical sci
ence.
WAS AHEAD OF HIS TIME
Peter Heulein, Who Made the J^raf
Watch, Accused of Witchcraft and.
Thrown Into Prison.
There is in existence today a letter
dated April 22; 1527, from Martin* Lu
ther to Father Frederick PUftorius,
the last abbot of St Aegidnis in Nu
remberg, in which he thanks the ab
bot for the gift of a watch/and adds-:
"I feel compelled to become a pupil
of pur inathematicians in order to un
derstand this .unique timekeeper."
Never before had he seen such, an ob
ject
As he wa? familiar with clocks,
what 'tie meant, evidently, was that
the-time indicators on the clock were
differeiit from those on the watch
which had been given to him. It is
quite probable he-had in his posses
sion the first watch made by Peter
HenJehv or at least one of his finst
opes. This Peter Henlein was a black
smith s.nd locksmith and devoted, his
time to mathematics and watchmak
ing, for which he was thrown into ]
prison charged with witchcraft which
was then one of the ea^y ways of dis
posing of a rival or of a person who
^did things out of the ordinary.
But Peter persevered, and the name
of Hetf ein and Nur em burg is preserved I
by a monument in his native town. |
New Beils Made Like Old.
We have often heard of- the beauti
ful silver tone of very old church bells
in Europe and some have even been
bought at a great price and brought to
jbneriea. It was supposed that after
a bell had rung regularly for one or
two centuries some mysterious, quali
ty was developed, and. the beautiful
tone could be acquired In no other
way. An ingenious American studied
the problem, however, and decided
that the silver tone was simply due.
to the fact that the clapper of the
bell had worn itself and the bell by
continued striking, until the two fit
closely together and that the shape of
the metal and nothing else determined
the tone. He began to make bells by
casting them so that, the clapper and
the bell fit each other properly, and
the mellow silver tone was obtained at
once. Today we are manufacturing
such bells and selling them abroad.?

Worry Really Wicked. !
Worry is really an evidence of lack
of self-confidence and of faith In the
power that runs the universe. It is
a lack of faith in the power that pro
vided yolf do your part, will always
bring things out better than you possi
bly could by yourself alone. Why
should you worry, why should you
fear. xny should you be anxious, when
God's vision and omnipotence are al
ways ready to guide and serve you?
There never has been an instant in
your life, my friend, which you could
have safeguarded or provided for with
a thousandth part of the wisdom with
which God has guarded and provided
for it It is really a reflection upon
him to be anxious about the future, to
dread poverty and sickness, to warry
about your business, to fear failure
in 'your undertaking.?Orison Swett
Harden in Chicago News.
Fierce Apparitions.
In the West Indies a sight of the
"rolling calf presages death or ter
rible misfortunes. The negroes are
'dreadfully afraid of possible encoun
ter with it at night. It is white, of
enormous size and with eyes that
blaze like hot coals.
William Thorp, a learned student of
such manifestations, writes of a
phantom shark that haunts the waters
about Nassau, in the Bahamas, where
it Is known as the "harbor master."
It shines with a weird phosphorescent
glow even in the daytime, and though
hooked on many occasions and pulled
in, it Inv?i,'Iably vanishes from view at

j(The Purpose of the Movement
io Organize South Caroliaa
Development Board
\ What is this South Carolina Devel
opment Board that is getting a ineas
ure of publicity this1 week?
The answer is that it is an associa
tion of South Carolina citizens who
jare working without profit to them
selves to help make. South Carolina!
greater along several different lines, j
Some of the men who are members'
of this board are:
Governor Cooper.
Ex-Governor Manning,
George B. Cromer of Xewberry,
Senator Neils Christenson of Beau
fort.
Bright Williamson of Darlington,
Horace Tilghman of Marion,
J. Roes Hanahan of Charleston,
L. 3>. Jennings of Sumterv .
J. Skottowe Wannamaker of the
Coil'-n Association. ? - ? .
\ There ?re a great m?ny others;
these few are mentioned' to show
the type of men who are with thiS:
movemeht for the general betterment
of the population of the State.
The South Carolina- Development
Board has many ends in view; one is
the betterment of marketing condi
[ tions. . No one questions what it
I would-.mean'for this country if corn
for potatoes, or spinach, or 'any Other
[product could, be marketed in this*
icounty just as easily as cotton could.
For instance, a few 'days- ago ja. Sivni
ter county man was at a railroad feta
tion in one of the low country coun-'
I tics and saw farmers driving to the
j station with loads of potatoes t and
[receiving $9 a barrel for them, cash.
I He thought that pretty good until he
j learned' that these potatoes had hot
i been graded by the sei el rs; that.pota
toes were "bringing 3 prices, according
[ to grade, $5> per. barrel. ?;2^.50 per bar
r rel and ? 12 per barrel. Eyery' farmer
j in that .community w?s ^losing f^rom
;41.5.6 to $3 per barret because .his
marketing process was i&ulty.
The Development boafo will estab
lish markets. The hoard cannot
work without means nor without
men. It'wants business men and it
wants farmers especially for memberss
for the next three years. A member
ship costs $10 a year.

Walter G. Braden of .Pontiac. Mich.,
founder of the string. of so-called
community markets now in opera
tion in Minnesota and Michigan. Mr.
Braden in accepting the invitation to
the South Carolina Development
Board to come to South Carolina to
talk about markets, made- it clear- that J
he could not bring here a.complete
operating plan for the home Cash
' markets which it is- proposed to es
tablish, but that he would he glad to
teil how he has helped the farmers
of the north, to find a ready cash
market for everything they produce
and at better prices than that for
merly received..
Mr. Braden is an exponent of the
theory that the only question to be
answered' in attacking the problem
of increased ferm production is that
of finding a ready market at fair
prices for the thing* the farmer is ex
pected to produce. "Just show the
faiiuer where he can selLhis stuff, at
a profitable price, and he will do the
rest," says Braden with emphasis.
This is what Braden has done and is.
.doing jn. the .North._His. story of how
he does it should be intensely inter
esting to South Carolina! producers.

non-essential ? .Bur ke - said, you can- j

as the automobile, industry, based, up-,

even though it be a pleasure, car, who
is able tc enjoy its use^-for his^'fapiUy

"Next io the church, there is no
