A Presbyterian Church in North Carolina has just bought a cow! "the church carries on a largo work in the ‘‘Door section of the town, where many children need pure, fresh milk, but are not able to secure it. The church hires out (he cow to poor families with small children at very reasonable rates. The cow gives about four gallons a day, which is sufficient for seven families. These families usually have enough small boys to herd the cow on the public commons anil to see that cadi family gets its share ilic experiment is so successful that the money secured for the hire of the cow is being laid aside for the purchase of another row. Two motor truck loads of human bones, the remains of several hundred early settlers of New York, were unceremoniously dumped into the ocean recently in New York City from a rubbish scow, according to a news despatch from that city. Workmen dug up an ancient churchyard with old brownstone tombstones containing names and dates, the latest of which was 1820. Records indicate the old graveyard was undoubtedly connected with two prominent Manhattan churches of the early nineteenth century, and no doubt contained the bodies of heroes of the American Revolution and the war of 1812.
