A cord I tbe standard measurement of wood, and It I defined aa 128 cubic feet of wood, measured by a pile four feet high and tight feet wide of loga four feet long. Tbe diserepaii:-y between tba cord as bought by the dealer and a delivered to the customer, according to Profe- aor Hugo Wlukeowerder, dean of the college, Is not entirely explained by tbe sawdust.

Whan tha tun Waa Totally Obeeured In Thla Country In 180. Tba moat remarkable eclipse of tbe sun witnessed In tbe United State In tbe centuries since It discovery took place on June 10. I80a There were eclipse previous aud slue then, but that of 1000 la regarded by astrono mera aa the most memorable of all that of Aug. 7, 1809, being tba next In grandeur and lutcrei Tbe eclipse of 1800 waa to be seen over all part of North America. For tonately the day waa a remarkably fine one, scarcely a cloud being visible In any part of the heavens. Tbe son's entire surfice was covered at twenty seven mluutee and thirty aecooda put U o'clock. Jtamea Feiilmore Cooper, the novel tat, though but a youth at tbe time of tbe eclipse, waa so enthusiastic an ob server of tbe spectacle that twenty-five years after the event be wrote mi nute account of what be aaw and bow be felt during tbe wonderful occur rence. Mr. Cooper state that aa be aud other aiiectatora In his company first discerned through their glasses tbe oval form of tbe moon darkening tbe suit's light an exclamation of delight, almost triumphant, burst Involuntarily from tbe lips of alL Tbe people began gathering into tbe atreet. Their usual labors were abandoned, and all face were turned upward. Tbe noonday beat began to lessen, and there was aomethlog of tbe cool ness of early morning. Mr. Cooper further atatea that "all living crea ture seemed thrown Into a state of agitation. The birds were fluttering to and fro lu great excitement They aeemed to nilstruxt that thla waa not the gradual approach of evening and were uudecldcd lu their movement. Even tbe doga became uneasy and drew nearet to their master. "Every bouse now gave up Ita ten ants. As tbe light failed more and more wltb every passing second tbe children rauie docklug about tbelr mothers lu terror. The sua appeared like a young moon of three or four daya old. One after tbe other the atar came into view, which filled tbe spirit wltb singular sensations." The general phenomena at all tbe placea where tbe eclipse was com plete or nearly ao were tbe vacillation of tbe wind, tbe deep, strange shadow, tbe yellowish pink of the atmosphere In tbe west, tbe flickering aud wavy appearance of the aun'a ray a when the eclipse waa at Ita height, tbe chilly feeling, tbe disturbance amoug tba bird and fowla and tbe sight of cer tain planets with the naked eye.

Dont make this grievous mistake. The public is fickle. The public is forgetful. It needs to be continually reminded where you are and what you are doing. If you don t let it know through the columns of a newspaper it soon will transfer its trade. Don't think your busi ness "so well estab lished" it doesn't need advertising.
