There is but little difference In tvreen
tho tiro's of a first-clans burglar and
those of an honest locksmith, for the

and to open s.-.fen when keys are lobt

If he wants to make a key for such a

which nothing is easier if it be plate.
Jewels are also readily disposed of, but

With all that has been said, there is

that theEe raen who inform themselves

they aro cartful to learn whether your

Young Stick to It.
There is a deal of regret expressed in
speeches, letters to agricultural papers,
and in editorials by kind-hearted, well
iiatentioned cdiixrs, that the boys are
leaving tho farms. Xo doubt many
young men have reatizad the fact that
farm life is no harder than city life.
Many have been wise encur-h to return
to the farm after testing tho realities of
life in a city. Bnt the boys who leave
the firm for the ci'y or villages fellow
the example.? t-f elder men. Th num
ber of well-to-do farmers who have re
alized beautiful homes, reached middle
age and h?.vo told their farms, bought
vuiage or city lota and settled on them
with a view of "taking thing3 easier,"
is not a Fmall one. These men do so
with the same or similar motives with
which young men leave tho farms, and
they rre as often disappointed in the
results.
Wo know farmers, both young wnd
old, who have abandoned profitable and
beautiful farm homesteads, removed to
tho village, invested their capital in
trade, got rretty thoroughly ' cleaned
oat" in a business in which they hael no
practical experience, and have bought
baek their homesteads at an advanced
price, running in debt to get pesressian
of them, and working hard said con
tentedly to pay again for what they
once posse-t-sed. Some of theeS men
have said to ns within tho last two
months, " a farmer is a fool who sells
his f.irni thinking to have an easier and
happier time in a village or city." The
eTct t.f such reaction in the caso of
these examples upon those who stick to
the fnrni is exceedingly wholesome. It
rendeisthem content. They have not
waved their substance in "putting up
stakes" tnd re-moving from " the old
landmarks." They have been steadily
accumulating as farmers and gathering
about their homesteads all the modern
appliances for the conservation of com
fjrt and content. Tho farmer who
" sticks fo it" is sure to win what city
inide money readily purchases inde
pendence, hr.ppinos", and a sense of se
curity whh is the result of well-eloing.

FAltM AND PLANTATION TOPICS.
From the Bural Carolinian.
DEIED PLANTS AKD THE IB TEACHTNGS.
AJfrienel who had devoted much atten
tion to vegetable physiology, especially
in its relation to agriculture, lately
fchowed ns two interesting specimens of
dried plsnts. One was the common
oat, which the botanists c'ass among
the Oraminccc, or grasses, and the other
vetch, a leguminous plant, allied to the
garden pea, th9 bean, the lupines, and
the cloveis. The plants had been grown
in flower pots, from which the ball of
earth had been taken and carefully
washed away frcm the roots, leaving
them unbroken ard entire. The oat
plant, or, rather, clump of plants, pre
sented a mass of roots which would be
likely to astonish the nnobseiving farm
er and open his eyes to the necessity
cf giving his crop breadth and depth of
soil, as well as something to feed upon.
The bulk and weight of the roots was,
we think, two to one at least as com
pared with tho parts growing above
ground. In the vetch, on the contrary,
the proportion was reversed the roots
making not more than one-third cf the
ent ro bulk. Now tha vetch, like the
clovers, is found to be exceedingly rich
in nitrogen, and therefore very valuable
as a green soiling crop. When plowed
under, it enriches the soil by snpplying
'he required nitrogenous plant food.
Where and how this and similar plants
get tho vast amount cf nitrogen, which
they siore up to enrich the soil, is, per
haps, an open question. It was former
ly believed that plants like vetch, gar
den peas, buckwheat, etc., whose roots
are comparatively small and of limited
extension, absorb ammonia directly
from the atmosphere through their
leaves. Late experiments seem to show
conclusively that this is not the case.
They get it through the roots exclusive
ly, but it still appears certain that it
mc3t be the atmosphere that supplies
it. Tt is (iu its elements) in the air, the
rains and the dew which permeate the
soil, and in that laboratory of nature,
and decomposed and made available in
the form of ammonia. These facts, thus
briefly and imperfectly stated, teach
several lessons of immense practical
value to tb.3 farmer. 1. That different
classes of plants have different modes of
feeding, as distinctly shown by their
roots. 2. That certain leguminous
plants, and probably all of them, in a
greater or less degree, are great pur
veyors of nitrogenous plant food, and
should therefore be made use of as
green soiling crops to enrich the land
for the grains and the fibre bearing
plants, tho lime and other ash elements
being cheaply obtainable to complement
them. 3. That in view of the fact that
the fertilizing elements which ere elab
crated in tho soil come so largely from
tho atmosphere, it is cf the utmost im
portance that the land bo well broken
up and iho soil kept loose and porous
by judicious and frequent cultivation,
so that air and moisture can freely pene
trate it.
IMPROVEMENT OF CLAYEY SOIL.1?.
Ono of the principal defects of clayey
soils, especially where thpy rest upen a
subsoil cf the same nature, ia tho ex
cess cf water which i3 held in them.
The only effectual way in a majority of
cases to get rid of this is by thorough
underdrawing. Thi3 draws eff by im
perceptible degrees all the excess of
water and opens the soil to the free ad
mission of the air, which in iis passage
through it imparts warmth and such
fertilizing gaes aa it may contain.
Open drains or ditches, though less
effectual, are useful. In some ca?es
water furrows, terminating in some
ravine or ditch, Fervo a good pupose,
Lime is exceedingly useful as an ameli
orator of clayey soils, inducing chemi
cal combinations, the mechanical eifoc
of which is to break up tho too great
tenacity of the clay, while it adds, at
the scree time, an element of fertility
which may perhaps be wanting, Ovp-
sum, or pdaster of Paris, has the same
effect in a still more powerful degree.
Ashes, coarse vegetable manures, straw,
leaves, chips, etc., aro also very useful,
ad ling new materials to the soil, and
tending to separate its particles and de
stroy their strong cohesion. Clayey
iand3 must never be plowed when wet.
(T.OVElt AS AN ACCXUrXATOIt OFKITUOOEN.
We find it stated that Dr. Voelcker,
by a series of the most exhaustive an
alyses cf soils and of plants, has discov
ered and established tho fact that an
immense amount of nitrogenous food
a?curaulates in tht) eoil during the
growth of clover, especially iu the sur
face soil ; amounting, including that in
tho clover roots and tops, to three and
a half tons of nitrogen per acre; equal
to four tons and a third of ammonia,
If this bo a fact, tho wonderful effects
of clover, vetch, and similar plants on
the soil ceaso to be mysterious, and the
farmer need no longer buy ammonia in
uis commercial fertilize!?, but only add
to tho soil the lime and other ash e!
ment3 required, which can be cheaply
tarnished m available forms.
CHEATED THE BUOMCS SECAMSUS SWIN
DLE.
Sometime ago a specimen of wheat,
in which there were a few grains of
chess, or cheat, was presented to tho
Fiiilade-phin Academy of Natural
Scier.ee?. It peemed at first as if the
scientists wero to bo confourded and
nature made to contradict herself. The
specimen laid before the learned men of
the academy was a head of wheat, to
which email branches cf chess were
united, and apparently in a very natural
manner. Tho specimen waa finally re
ferred to the " micro-copical section,"
who report that the thing was a trick.
The chess was nearly inserted into the
wheat stalk, and held thero by a sub
stance " which tho committee believe
to be giim tragncmf h."
WINTER PLANTING IN TEE SOUTH".
In ordinary seasons, onr winters in
tho lower couth, cr South Atlantic and
Gulf Coast regions, are t o mild that the
hardier vegetables grow finely, and ro
ma!;i uninjured during tho coldest
months December and January but,
occasionally, severer freezes occur, and
the gardener must be content to take
some risks, even in the caso of the
hardiest tpecies. This, in tho limited
operations cf the family garden, he can
well tifford to do, for failure costs mere
ly a littlo not unpleasant labor and a
few sseds, and success rewards him
with cn early and execltei-.t crop. An
ox : -liontcwutrivaaco f r securing plants
ia rows against frost consists in two
boards, a foot wide, nailed te getiier at

CAUSATIOX OF INSANITY.
A Physician Who Does Rot Believe in
"tmo; tonal Insanity.'
The New York Tribune publishes a
lecture delivered by Dr. Gray in Belle
vue Medical College, New Yorfr, of
which the following is an extract : The
lecturer referred to the long list of ex
citing causes, and said that, whatever
they might be, they finally inducted
insanity through discorded conditions
of the brain. Ho deprecated an at
tempt at dividing them into moral and
physical causes. If one moral cause
was competent to induce insanity by
giving rise in the mind to exciting or
depressing ideas, then any cause may
do it, and there will be no limit. All
the circumstances of human life could
be enumerated under causation. The
speaker referred to causes found in
books and reports of asylums, as often
of the most frivolous and inconsequen
tial character. He spoke of the fact
that all the so-called moral causes
the exercise of normal human pas
sions and emotions arising in the
circumstances of social life. He
said the rage of jealousy and the
passionate grief of disappointed love
were only the intense expressions
of natural feelings, and that the trage
dies growing out of them only Tent to
show what humaniny might be and yet
not be mad. Insanity was not simply
a disturbed reason, but a profound
disease of tho brain ; not a burst of
passion, but a loss of identity of rela
tion of persons and thing's ; not a mys
terious intangible something, but a dis
ease which writes itself over the whole
physical man, and which, if not arrested,
advances steadily in his deterioration
to death. He maintained that the doc
trine of causation carried with it the
treatment that as some maintained, if
iasanity was a diseased mind without
diseased brain, the wholo question
might be relegated to priests and un
professional men. Only as a disease
was it brought within the scope and
duties of tho medical profession. Being
a disease it was of the greatest import
ance that the law of causation 6hould
bo well appreciated, that the patient
bo put under medical care at the earliest
possible moment. Dr. Gray presented
the following conclusions on this point:
1. Whatever causes operate to pro
duce insanity, they only do so through
their final interferenca with the physi
cal conditions of the brain through
physiological laws.
2. So-called moral causes are incom
potent in themselves to induce insan
ity, except through tha physical failuie
which ensuo from loss of sleep, lack of
nutrition, undue strain and consequent
less of rest and nutrition of the brain
and nervous s stem.
3. All these adverse conditions a?so
ciated cannot prodece insanity except
with the final agency of physical lesion.
For Love of an ianpr?s.
Lucy H. Hooper writes to tho Phila
delphia Press from Paris: "I have
heard lately the following melancholy
and romantic little story relative to a
royal lady whose personal charms and
sweet and graceful manners have ren
dered her as unconsciously dangerous
to her masculines adherents cs ever
Mary Stuart was of yoro. It appears
that during tho latter years of tho em
pire the attention of tho empress, who
ever has been distinguished aa an intel
ligent and munificent patroness of art,
was called to the works of a rising
young painter a Spaniard or an Italian
by birth who had just completed his
studies and had achieved admission to
the salon. She was pleased with his
pictures, purchased several of them,
and gave him a cominissiou for two or
three others. Finally, at his earnest
solicitation, she consented to sit to him
for her portrait, which proved to be a
striking likeness and a most admirable
work of art. From that timo forward
the young painter haunted assiduously
every public place where ho could ob
tain a glimpse cf his fair and royal
patroness. When she went to the
the .tre or opera he invariably occupied
an orchestra strll in front of the impe
rial box, and when she drove out he
sought to cress her path in order to ob
tain from her one of those graceful
bows and one of those sweet, melan
choly smiles which she alwa; s bestowed
with such courtesy upon fhoso who
saluted her. At last came the war and
Sedan and the republic, and park and
theatre and opera-box kcew that fuir
face no more. Deprived of even those
passing glimpses of the imperial lady,
the young artist becamj morose,
gloomy, and misanthropical ; ho shut
himself up in tho solitude of his
studio, and employed himself chiefly
in reproducing his portrait cf tho em
press a wotk which met with ready
salo among the friends of ioiperialism
in Tdria from its intrinsic merit no less
than the fidelity of its likeness. The
other day he was found lying dead in
his studio, with a pistol shot through
the head, and. with the discharged pis
tol still clutched in his lifeless hand."
What the Miah's Visit to England Has

Tho Cologne Gizetto states that the
shah's visit to Europe has occasioned
many alterations in the external appear
ance of the upper anel middle classes in

dox Mohimmedau the cap is not so
high, and tho whole dress is a mixture
of Armenian and European fashions.
Put chairs aie not adopted ; they arc
used only for European visitors, while
the natives fold their legs on the cushion
or foot-stool. In religious matters the
old fanaticism is less frequently dis
played, and tho missionaries enjoy great
liberty. Tee numerous Armenian Chris

the B isaian ambassador, and their in

of tho foreigu residents marrying their

There is at tho present (hue stacked up
at these furnaces, ready fi-r shipment,
nearly 1,000 tons cf iron, which in the
i?greeate is worth nearlv half a million
dollars. The sale and improvement of
this iron would be a considerable item
of freight to our railroads, and the
return of that amount of money would
cause many a smile to radiate over

Second Best are Yery Good.
A great many stock breeders go on
raising very inferior animals year after
year, because they have not the means
to purchase fancy animals at fancy prices
to breed frcm. They have not the
means to purchase $10,000 heifers or
$30,003 bulls ; and so they buy nothing
and keep on using animals for breeding
purposes that cause their stock to dete
riorate rather than improve. There is
no necessity, in raising cattle, ' for run
ning to either extreme. If a farmer
cannot have the best stock, there is no
good reason why he should havo only
the poorest. In many respects a sort
of middle course is the best and the
safest ono.
If a man wishes to make money as a
breeder of fancy stock, and has the
means to do it, there is no doubt about
the way ho should proceed. He should
purchase tho best animals to be had,
whether in this country, Canada, or Eu
rope. In this way he will produce finer
animals than have ever been produced,
and there seems to be no limit to tho
prices that stock fanciers will pay for
superior animals. Tho breeding of
short-horns, especially, has become a
sort of elegant pursuit, and men of
means have adopted it, not only as a
way of making money, but of gratify
ing their taste. In England, thort
horn breeders from a class midway be
tween those whoso tastes lead them to
study literature, art and science, and
those 'Klio give themselves up to pleas
ure. If, on the other band, a farmer wishes
to improve his stock with a view of get
ting more milk from his cows anel more
and better beef from his steers, it is not
necessary to purchase animals that com
mand the price stock fanciers are willing
to pay for them. They can accomplish
the ends they desire in a much cheaper
way. In truth, the progeny of a $10,000
bull will be too valuable to use for giv
ing milk or making beef for the butcher.
The bull is too valuable to use on any
thing but thorough-bred anicrals, and
for this purpose alone he should bo
kept
Farmers can always obtain very gocd
bull3 for the purpose cf improving their
stock at very reasonable prices. Some
times they can obtain them at an almost
nominal price. This is the case when
professional breeders have an anim-i!
that has some slight defect, which
would disqualify it in the eyes of thos
looking for the best. Professional
oreecters, wlicse establishments are
ited by buyers, do not care to keep
such animals in their herds, and are
often glad to dispose of them at almost
any price. The slight defect might dis'
appear in the next generation, and it
may not bo of a nature to injure the
form of an animal either for giving milk
or for making superior beef.
During the past few years, color has
had much to do in determining the
valne of fine stock. Fashion, which is
but another name fcr folly, demanded
that a short horn should be rod iu
order to bring the highest price. Boan
or spotted short-horns were worth much
less to sell to professional breeders,
while white animals of pure blood, fine
pedigiee, and faultless shape could not
be sold at all to breeders. In truth,
the breeders and owners "cf these white
cittle did r.ot want them on their es
tates, for the reason that they gave the
impression that their stock of fashion
able color were likely to produce ani
mals whose color was not fashionable.
They wanted herds of uniform red
color, or at last no further departure
from red than i3 roan.
Now white cow.! will giva as ranch
milk as roan ones ; and white stfers will
bring as much as red ones will. They
are as likely to bo good breeders, anel
possibly after a few years whito may be
the fashionable color for short horns,
Indeed, tho pre judieo against whito as
a color for short horns is fast disap
pearing, end those who bought white
animals a few years Rgo and fed them
properly aro now receiving large div
idends ou small investments. Some of
them have very fair herds cf pure
bloods, and lare numbers of cattle iu
which short-horn blood predominates
We have mentioned these as a few of
the ways by which farmers of smali
means may, by a little tact ami a small
expenditure cf money, improve their
stock. By changing the bull every
second or third year all tho evils of in
and in breeding may be avoided, and
his change may often be made within
the circuit of a few miles without the
expenditure of any money. If one
farmer has not a sm'li?ient number of
cows to jastify hirn in buying a blooded
bull, then several farmers iu the same
neighborhood should unite in tho c
terpiise.
The Brain.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, writing in
tho Atlantic, upon the brain, says :
"No sound .Tcrkiiig brain, without
enough good blood to build it, repair
it, and furnish the materials for those
molecular charges which are tho condi
tions essential to all nervous actions,
intellectual and volitional, as well as
those of lower grade. No good blood
without a proper amount of proper food
and air to furnish materials, and healthy
organs to reduce a sufficient quantity of
these materials to a state fit to enter the
circulation. No healthy organs, strictly
speaking, except from healthy parents,
and developed and maintain A by
proper stimuli, nourishment, and use.
No healthy parents no help for it. We
are, of course, applying the term
healthy to the brain, as signifying much
moro than freedom from disease. A
healthy brai i should show, by the out
ward eigns cf clear, easily-working in
telligence, well-balanced faculties, and
commanrling will, that its several
crgttES, if such thero be, or its several
modes of action, if it works as a whole,
are properly developed and adjusted by
themselves ami ia relation to each other.
"If we could only bespeak a brain
for ono of tha freshman class cf IS00
as we lay out for sn unborn colt to run
for a enp in two or three years ! But we
havo to tako the brains as ti.ey come,
and tho range of difference is so enormous-,
that one is tempted to my there
is no such thiLg in iho abstract as a
good education. Havo we not seen
young men who had been for tbree
years rained on with professional teach
ings of all kinds, upon whom the
auxioms of science had bo::n dropping
long enough to wear hollows in a
atone, and who havo coeae out of 11 e
showers of instruction with intellects as
dry of knowledge as if Mr. .Mackintosh
Lad furnished each of their brains with
su impermeable rtura mater ?''
USEFUL KNOWLEDGE.
Cabbage Worm. After trying vari
ous remedies, we have found boiling
hot water from a watering pot, the
simplest, easiest, and most effectual
mode of destroying the cabbage worm.
If applied quickly and not too long on
the leaves, it produces no injury. It is
easy repeated as occasion requires.
Family Glue. We make our glue
in the following way ; Crack up the
glue and put it in a bottle ; add to it
common whisky ; shako up, coik tight,
and in three or four days it can be used.
It requires no beating, will keep for
almost any time, and is at all times
ready to use except in the coldest
of weather, when it will require warm
ing. It must be kept tight, so that the
whisky will riot evaporate. The usual
corks or stoppers shcrald not be used.
It will become clogged. A tin stopper,
covering the bottle but fitting as closely
as possible, must be used.
The United States of America pro
duce annnally about 275,000,000 bushels
of wheat, or about G bnshels per cap
ita. Of this amount they consume
over 230,000,000 bushels, or about 5J
bushels per capita; and have about 42,
000,000 surplus left for sa'e, The
United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Ireland produces annually about 95,
000,000 bushels of wheat, and consumes
190,000,000 bushels, or about Z bush
els per capita. It has therefore a de
ficit to purchase, amounting to as much,
of wheat, as all it proeluces, or 95,000,
000 bushels. Thus, England has two
bnshels of wheat to buy where we have
ono to sell.
Stair Carpets. To prevent the pile
from separating at tho edge of the stair
and wearing off, pads are used ; these
are made of a low grade of cotton, cov
ered with the cheapest muslin. A quilt
or comfort that has seen service will
answer the purpose of stair pads. In
additien to increasing the lease of use
fulness cf the carpet, the pads prevent
noisy clattering of feet, and, in case
the baby should fall downstairs, the
injury received would be materially
lessened. When first laid down the
carpet shculd bo several inches longer
than needed, that it may bo disposed
of after each shaking so that a fresh
place may come to all the edges. A
wisp or small dusting broom is tho best
for sweeping stair carpets. After thor
ough sweeping a wet cloth may be used
to good advantage in removing all dust.
A m:VAIlOS DEATH.
The Speech ot a Jtlan on the ' Tolil In
Aevida, -
An astonishing display of bravado on
the scaffald was made at Carson, Neva
da, by John Murphy, on the 29.h ult.
To watm his feet before he left his cell
he danced a lively jig cn tho iron floor,
and said : " Don't forget, I am not a
Tom Paine man ; I believe in God and
spiritualism." Arriving at the scaffold,
Murphy monuted the stand, and eeatirg
himself with his legs crossed, waited
calmly. The sheriff read the lengthy
death warrant, the condemned man
smiling the while, and at the utterancs
of the words, " Dead, dead, dead !"
gave a hollow laugh. Daring the read
ing of the warrant Murphy walked
across the scaffold for a drink of water,
and, the officer pausing, he said: "Go
on, sheriff, I hear you." Murphy had
asked for an hour to speak, and by his
preparations it was evident that he in
tended to occupy all the time allotted
to him. He proceeded to say that he
had killed his adversary in self-defense,
and accused one cf his lawyers of fatal
ineomreteney. 113 then entered on a
loDg protest against capital punishment.
After reading extracts from the works
of Judge Edmunds, he asked foi a chew
of tobacco, and repeated a poem of
great length in the Scotch dialect, said
to have been dictated by tha spirit of
Bcbert Barns to Lizzie Dolan, spit it
ualistic lecturer. Murphy walked un
easily to and fro upon the scaffold dur
ing tha delivery of the speech, and
pointing to tho motley crowd cf men,
women, hoodlums, Indians and China
men congregated on tho hillside to wit
ness the execution, s sid. " Well, they
havo come to see mo cff." Kneeling, he
rea 1 a prayer from lr's book, and rising,
said to the sheriff, "I am ready."
He stood up under tha fatal noose,
and held up his clenched fists as if in
defiance. The sheriff approached and
pinioned his arms. During the opera
tion Murphy remarked: "I'd like to
give those judges a little rub, by
Seeing a friend in tho crowd, he
sacg oat, "Hello, Sweeny!" and then
has eye o night that of a reporter, and
he said, " You are a reporter?" " Yes,
Murphy," answered tho reporter.
"Well, just tell them that you've seen
mo in a tight place." The sheriff was
then adjusting the fatal noose. Those
were his last words.
Jewel robberies.
Mr. Jehan Valter, a French journal
ist, relates, apropos of tho robbery cf
the Du.iley diamonds, several anecdotes
about jewel robberies, no tells how a
speculator presentee! a report to the
directory making out that the celebrated
church oi Lorette contained 10,000,000
worth in diamond, etc. B.irras and
C irnot informed Bonaparto of the fact,
bnt tho 3 oung general refused to march
on tho place because he would have to
expose a corps of ten thousand, and
would probably find nothing when he
got there. In time he did manage to
seize on tho church, and found that all
the diamonds had been replaced by
rd.iss. M. Valter also tells how tho
mother of the late French emperor,
the Q:teen nortense, when she was leav
ing Franco after the invasion by the
allies, was stopped on tho high road by
tho Marquis do Maubrenil, who searched
her carriage and took away 20,000
worth of diamonds, which have never
sir.ee b?en heard of. This stc-y is all
tho moro remarkable as there was a
great fuss made about this Marquis de
Maubrenil toward the close of tho
second empire. He hael a lawsuit with
his wife, anel aa an outcry was raised
against the marquis continuing a mem
ber of tho legion of honor. It then
came out that he was one of tho royal
ists who had aided the Prussians to pull
down the statne of Napoleon from the
top of the column of Vendome, and
that while engaged in this act ha had
tied an order of the legion of honor to
the tail of his horse, and dragged it ia
tho mud. Yet toward the end of the
reign of the Third Napoleon he woro
the red ribbon una was in receipt of a
government pension.
Weather Signs.
A French naturalist Las recently
grouped, for public convenience, a num
ber of his observations npon animals,
showing that many members of the
brne creation may bo useful aa living
barometers. Bain or wind, ho says,
may bo expected when tho spidets
shorten iho last thread by which their
wel'3 aro suspended ; fair weather when
they lengtheu them ; and the daration
of either by the degree of contraction
or expansion observable. When swal
lows sweep near the ground, tittering
plaintive cries, rain is at band ; when
they mount up, fly from sido to side,
and play together, fine weather will fol
low. When a single magpie leaves its
nest in the spring it is a sign of rain, but
the reverse is the case when two parent
birds leave it in company. Bain is
near when the peacocks utter frequent
cries, when parrots chatter more than
usual, and when geese are uneasy.
It may not be possible to procure
sand enough for mixing with large
quantities of roots intended as food for
stock. The next best thing to be done
is to keep them secure from frost, light
and air, and to prevent heating and fer
mentation by the use of air flues. Car
rots, rutabagas, beets and mangolds
should be Btored before they are dam
aged by frost, as they never keep well
after being frozen. Western Rural.
Poetet is spoiled by the addition of
a single word. A young lady, after
listening to her lover's description cf
the setting 6ud, exclaimed : " Oh,
Alphonse ! Alphonee f what a soul you
have for art 1 You were meant for a
great painter !" Her father, unexpect
edly close behind, r.dded, " and glazier."
Will Wonders Never Cease? When
Dr. Walker ptoclaimed that he had pro
duced from the medicinal herbs of Cali
fornia an elixir that would regenerate
the sinking system and enre every form
of disease not organic, the incredulous
shook their heads. Yet his Vinegar
Bitters is now tho standarel restorative
of the western world. Under the oper
