JJjlj' Josh Hidings favors liie world with n j
brief essay on dogs Dogs, in the lump," says
John, "are useful but l hey are not always pro
fitable. The Newfoudhuiddog is useful to save
eiiibitvu fro;n drowning: but you inliat have a
pond of water and children naming'
loss,or elso the dogaint't profitable. There ain.t
nothing made boarding a New Fuimdliu' dog.
Hut tarriers are useful to catch mU, but the
ruts ain't profitable after you have .ketched ;
them. The shepheyd dogis useful to drive,sheep !
and pay move than they are worth just to keep I
the dog hussy, the dog ain't profitable—not
much. i.ap dogs are very-useful; Tmt if you j
clout', hold them in your lap awl the time,
they ain't profitable at all. The co;ieh dog is 1
one of of the most useful ov dogs l know ov :
but youmusthavea coo h (and that ain't always
pleasant), or.yot can't realise from the dug. !
Thus wq see that, while, dogs are generally ;

.There was one Jim M ils :i. a very rum
customer, of Cumberland. Maine, who used to !
got converted every August camp meeting, and
soon after, getting drunk again, would keep'
drunk pr.ctty much the rest of the year. Key j
Mr. Kichards 01 having got hold of him at
camp meeting, made this prayer: ‘-Oh! 1
Herd. Thou hast many times converted this *
poor sinner, and now again hast Thou made
b.-.m a subject of thy saving grace. W? pr.-v ’
Thee. 0 l.ord, to take him borne, and do it 1
right now: fur if ho remains on earth, he will
be drunk again in less than a week:" The
prayer was answered to some purpose, for it :
so frightened the poor fellow that from that
day he became a temperate tnau.
A Boa.'ter but ho Bi'tlor.
A country lellow was one day boasting
about the swiftness qf his horse, and declared
Unit he could outrun anything which went
upon four leg-, A 11'eigbbor of bis disputed,
am) said he hud a mule which could beat
him. ,
••A mule?' -aid the boaster—‘/HI hat you
a hundred dollars to that.
“Done !” said the other,
“Done! ? said the boaster.
•Now cover that,” said tiie owner oi^the
mule, laying down .-Uiundred dollars.
The boaster bogtfn. to be frightened, at this.
He thought . there must be something more
about, the mule than he was aware of, other
wise his owner wouldn't plank a hundred
dollar to run him against a horse, lie began
to hitch about uneasily. He put his baud in
liia pocket; Ire pulled it put again; and at last
said: “1 don't know, l swow, about (bat tar
| mil mule; lie may be tbe devil and all to run,
for what l know/”.
“Do you back out ikon
“Yen, I back out, ami treat.” So saying,
bewailed iu the liquor; but declared that his
! horse could beat anything which went upon
four lags except the mule.
“Why,” said the other, “I've got a jackass
that will beat him.”
“I’ll bet a hundred dollars of that, said
' the boaster.
“Done !" said the other.
And “done 1” said the boaster.
■■Cover that,” said the man, again putting
down tbe hundred dollars.
“Cover that-1” exclaimed the boaster, “so I.
will, plaguy quick,'.'—taking out bis pocket
book.
“Well, cover it if you dare—and 1 11 put
another, hundred atop of it. \\hy do you
hesitate ? Down 'with your dust 1 say.”
• 1 .[ ni t know, faith. I never saw that jack

In hesitate—“he limy 1. e the devil and all upon

••Do you flunk out. then ?” .
“Yes, I fiunimux this time; but. by jingo,

“Are you certain of that, mv good follow?
•■I think so, faith.”
• •Wh“. if you’re not quite certain, I'll hot
;ou something that I’ve got a negro that will
mtrun him.”
••A nigger!” \
••Yes, my nigger Tom v.;il beat yon.
“I'll bet a hundred dollars of that—there
lint no nigger tl.i.t ever breathed that can :
oeal my horse.”
‘•Very well—cover that.” As he said this.
Arc man once mom put down the hundred
dollars. ‘-But,” said Jie, “if you hack out: |
this time, you shall forfeit ten dollars, and if
I back out I’ll do the same.”
“Agreed.” said the boaster—“I'm sure my
home can beat a nigger, if he can't a mule or j
a jackass."
“Well, plunk the money if you please.”
••Plank it? so I will—don’t you fear that.”’
Saying this, lie oiice more took out his pocket
book and began to fumble for the money.
“Come, mail, down willi yotir dust,” raid
the oilier, taking out more money—“for I’m
ready to hack my hot with another hundred ,
dollars—or two hundred, if you like it.—
Come, why do you hesitate? Here’s three
hundred dollars }A. ready to stake.”
■•Three hundred dollars!" exclaimed the
boaster, starting like a stuck.pig—“three

Preventives «I Small Pox.
A medical friend has directed our atten
tion to the following quotations. The first,
from the letter of Hr. KN0Di: to citH us of
Memphis;
..It m Vnnwn ft..,I
I .J*
taken from the human system anfl is inscrtoh
into the tissues of the cow, it is so modified
by vital laws or functions of the animal as to
produce the true cow pox, or vaccina. Lymph
taken from smeii pustules is the trite and only
reliable vaccine matter. •* * *
A few cows are needed at the small pox
hospital to supply Its inmates with milk; these
animals should be innoculaied with small pox
matter and efforts made to produce the disease,
flits accomplished', we have a virus that is
necessarily pure, and the very same that
den tier disseminated after his great discovery."
The second quotation is from Geo. Giie
oor.v, M. If. physician to the small pox hos
pital at Highgate, resident in London, wlnt i
upplicd to by medical men ail over the world
for infoi'tuation on eruptive diseases :
“Jjsnhcr be!r:red that in giving to man cow
pox, he was in reality giving to him small pox
in its primitive ami wildest form. Some of
the followers of Jenner have adopted this/an
cifai notion.
•■Diseases' that naturally produce such other
are clearly refer fa b! o to the same origin,
'htts, swine pox and small pox are the same
diseases: but cow pox and small pox are differ
ently circumstanced. In man no combination
of circumstances, however unfavorable, has
ever convert ed cow pox into small pox: and
no cure has ever succeeded in converting the
small pox into the cow pox.”

Timm:s Many persons spoil
•tii-i'. gardens by plan!ing fruit trees in the’in.
Now it is a difficult lift t ter u» vnise « pood vege
table crop where it is shaded by trees, the
roots of trees soon take away all the.food from
the plants. It takes but a fc w years for the
roots of an apples tree, to run over several!
square rods. It is much better to cultlvat'' I
the smaller fruits by themselves and leave the j
garden so it..can be ph. uglied when necessary. *
It is a great temptation to plant a tree in a
rich spot in the garden. At first it looks,
small, but it soon branches forth iu its rich
soil and overshadows everything else.—JIf

A strange story is told of two gl&tcr* '
at lierlin. About three years ago one of the !
young ladies was engaged:to bo married but
on the bridal morning became so ill t hat she
could not’possibly go to the church. !he
bridegroom was a’ desirable one, and he '
an l he Was a tisli who, it seems, had not
easily been hooked. 'Piero was, therefore,
great danger in deny 'so instead of
postponing the marriage yhe second sister, ^
covering herself in a hug veil,' personated •
the first, am! duly wen through the cere-1
money, 'file mota-nt it 'as over she trans
ferred the bridal dress aid ornaments to her
sister, who, in iter inno'eci»e. was tints consid
ered to have all proper cliim to this husband:;
she married by proxy. I is oitlv recently
