The constable just elected in PhillipBburg township tips the beam at 251 pounds, while that of Arcade township weighs over 300 pounds. Not" many years 'ago tomatoes were used only to feed hogs.j'.Last year, bans of that refreshing vegetable, were put up in the United States; or about one can to every man, woman and child in the country. Stockton Record: Senator Patch in says he has interviewed a number of prominent officials of the Missouri Pacific railroad company this winter, and learns from them that the Central Branch will be expended to Stockton in the spring. There were eight tons of postage stamps, fifty-two tons of envelopes, 13 tons of postal cards, and seventeen tons of newspaper wrappers sold at the New York poBtofiice in 1882.

The editor of the Osage City Free Press has figured out that he has smoked $2,190 worth of cigars enough to fit out a better printing office than he has to-day. Ex. That's nothing.

''An American Christian1 writes to us to inquire "Why the appropriate legend 'In God we trust' has been omitted from the new five-cent coin." Well, we sup pose the new coin is fnll.weitght, and actually worth what it professes to be.

The little wonder is what is termed the '-wheel of fortune," not because any one who patronizes it is liable to win fortune, but it means a fortune to the unseen party who operates it.
