It is wonderful the number of peo ple there aie in the world who may be, and are, victimized by listening to propositions 60 unreasonable that any man of ordinary judgment ought to detect the falacy at glance ; and yet because of the large gain promis ed, they " bite." It is the inate gam bling spirit that is interwoven in hu man nature some how, that renders man so frequently the victim of so many schemes. A gentleman of our acquaintance some years ago was shown some tricks with cards, on the train going to Petersburg. He conclu ded he could just take in $10 withont any trouble ; it looked so plausible and as he thought, so sure ; but the other fellows took the money. On arrival at Petersburg he had them ar rested, and the next morning appear ed against them. Before leaving the com t room as a precaution he asked the Mayor to say nothing about his connection with it as he was an offi cer in a certain church and if it be came known it would damage him The. reporter for the Index was pres ent and published his cautionary re marks along with the case. A book agent at Elizabeth City re cently was soliciting subscribers for a magazine, for which he charged one dollar and fifty cents, and promised a gold watch as a premium, and accor ding to the statements of the papers he readily found about 200 people in that town who were willing to risk $1.50 for a gold watch. Of course they didn't get any gold watch or maga zine either.but the fraud did get at out $300. If every body could just get entire ly rid of the gambling characteristic in human nature, from which springs all this looking about for opportunity to get something for nothing, with out stealing it, frauds, bunco men and professional gamblers would have to go fishing or look for some other way to live without work. Cultivate Blackberries. The wild blackberries are so plenti ful and good in most parts of the country that farmers do not take readily to the idea of cultivating them. When once they realize the su periority of a fine cultivated sort this notion soon vanishes. There are many named sorts offered by nurse rymen, but there are few sections of the country where there cannot be found wild plants of superior excel lence. Mark these superior sorts when in fruit this summer, and next fall dig them up with all their roots. Cat the long roots in pieces three inches long, and plant them in rows. The following season they will make fineplants,and give a good crop of fruit the following season, if planted at the proper distauce at first. But the usual plan is to grow the plants from the roct cuttings in close rows the first season, and then transplant to a permanent location six by six feet apart. Tie the canes to stakes, and pinch the tips when about four feet long, to cause them to branch. The dewberry succeeds best when allowed to trail on the ground. W F. Mnssey, Horticulturist, N. C. Experiment Station. An electrician who bad long exper ience in the care ol central station plants recently spoke of the difference between continuous aod alternating current shocks iu the following terms: 'Without going iuto the fiercely de bated question of direct vs. alterna ting currents, I would call attention to one fact. With high tension con tinuous currents I have seen linemen, when repairing lines or connecting circuits, handle an arc circuit of per baps 2,000 volts when they should hardly touch it. By taking a quick hold and keeping it they could make a connection while really in a position of great danger, since a ground com ing on the line elsewhere would sure ly kill or injure them, although they would not believe this, since they could onlv feel the current at the moment of taking hold or letting go. Wih the alternating current, how ever, the effect is constant and so iu tensely disagreeable that a very slight leak indeed will discourage anyone from running the least risk on live circuits. I may mention, in con nection with this, that as far as my experience goes (and I believe some of the learned doctors agree with m ), the action of a heavy shock of alter nating current is to force the diap hragm up into the chest, compressing the lungs and literally squeezing the breath out of one, causing the cry which seems peculiar to those caught in this way. In such cases, if the per son thus shocked is stunned, danh cold water on the face and chest, loosen the clothing, especially at the neck, and use artifieialrespiration as for the drowned. One of our linemen who was badly shocked was brought round by this means, after being to all intents and purpose dead for near ly ten minutes, no breath or pulse beiDg discernible."
