Bpnopendyke, as Mr. Spoop endyke limped into the room and drop- Eed into a chair. "What on earth has appencd to von ?" .". "I fell down and killed myself," moaned Mr. Spoopendyke. "Now? where ?" asked Mrs Spoopen dyke, bnstlinpr around him, all nervous ness. "How did you do it ?" "Slipped on the ice and broke my arm from head to foot," sighed Jlr. Spoopen dyke, faintly. "Great ftmeions 1" ejaculated Mrs. Spoopendyke. "Whereabouts? where did it happen ?" "Out doors, dod past it ! Where d've s'pose I did it ? Think I brought the ice in the house and laid down on it ? Oh, dear I I'll never get my clothes off again. I've got to bit here and die ;" and Mr. Spoopendyke leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes with resig nation. "I'll help yon off with your hat and overcoat," said Mrs. Spoopendyke, ten derly. "Let me help you." "Be very careful mcrat taking off my hat," said Mr. Spoopendyke, rousing up. "Take it off easy, or you'll hurt my el bow. Pull the left ai;n of my overcoat down, so it will slip off What ye do ing? Trying to skin me? That sleeve's full of broken bones, I tell ye. Now help me to a chair. I knew I must go sometime, but I never expected to die so suddenly as this," and Mr. Spoopen dyke lifted his sprained arm and drop ped it again, to see if there was any animation left in his system. "Can't I do something for yon dear?" said Mrs. Spoopendyke, with tearful eyes. "If yon could sing a hymn without starting the eats, it might make my last minutes more peaceful," replied Mr. Spoopendyke, putting his feet on a chair and composing himself for disso lution. "You'd better let me attend to your arm,' recommended Mrs. Spoopendyke. "If it is badly sprained, you ought to have something on it." "Didn't I tell ye it was broken ? Just got curiosity to see, haven't ye ? Can't wait for the post mortem, can ye? Go ahead. Do what you please. In a lit tle while I'll be beyond pain. Just take and do what you like with it," and Mr. Spoopendyke stuck the maimed arm out straight and waved it around like a ham. "If you let me rotate it a little, and then bind it up with arnica, you'll be all right in an hour," cried Mrs. Spoopen dyke, affectionately. "Kotate it, then," murmured Mr. Spoopendyke. "I don't suppose it will make much difference to my estate. Take it down in the kitchen and rotate it. You might hold on, dod past it ! What d'ye think I am a pump V Got an idea I'm a clock ? Let go that arm, will ye?" and Mr. Spoopendyke pranced around the room "Oh! you're a bur geon, you are. All you want is a buck saw and a broken balustrade to be a inedicol college. Going to pull it out by the roots? S'pose that's a tooth? It isn't, it's an arm, ami it's busted like a toqierto !" and Mr. Spoopendyke, who had been brandishing the injured mem ber, began to stroke his shoulder and sympathize with himself. "Let me bathe it in arnica," said Mrs. Spoopendyke. "That's the best thing in the world. Just let me turn up your shirt sleevo and I'll tix it in a minute." 'Very good," said Mr. Spoopendyke ; "I don't suppose it will do any harm to hurry matters. Is my dress suit all brushed ? Have I got a shirt with a button on the back to be buried in ? v Have I got a pair of socks that my im mortal soul won't shine through the toes of? 'Cause, if I haven't, ye'd better use some of your measly arnica on my clothes. If yon think I'm going inlo the tomb all covered with grease, and my shirt flapping around on me like I was a clothes li.ic, you're mistaken, that's all," and Mr. Spoopendyke eyed his wife gloomily, while she prepared to lave his sprained shoulder. "Will you put me in a casket '!" he moaned as she tagan operations. 'Yes, dear," replied Mrs. Spoopen dykp. Mr. Spoopendyke regarded his wifeJwith one eye, and grunted feebly. "And you'll put on a silver plate with my name and age, and get a few flowers ? You don't want many. I shan't miss 'em if there ain't moro'n six. Will you attend to it " "Y'es," answered Mrs. Spoopendyke, "I'll see that you have lots of flowers and a big fun" "I don't want any big funeral. Sup pose I'm being cut off in the midst of my usefulness just because lunerals are cheap t Have you got a clean handker chief to put in my pocket when I'm dead t 'Certainly, dear." renlied Mrs. Snnmv endyke; unit having thoroughly bathed tlio arm, she bandaged it carelullv. "Don't von feel better?" "Perhaps if it were amputated in time 1 mignt get well," rejoined Mr. Spoon endyke, hitching his arm around to sec it lie could mid a pain anvwhen "What kind of a cravat have I got to wear in case of in the event of the worst ?" and Mr. Spoopendyke approach ed the climax of his question as becomes a man who shrinks trom the inevitable. "The one you've got on will do, won't it f inquired Mrs. apoopendvke. "No, it won't either. Is that all I've got ? ISxmot I'm going to lie buried among strangers in a dod-gasted necktie that won't hold together four days long er? Calculate that I'm going to the promised land as though I was hunting lor a job t ant mo to prowl around among the late lamented as though I'd busted up in business ?

"Gun's tou brincr ur mv brp&kfrRt 9" demanded Mr. Spoopendyke, the next morning. "My arm's so lame I can't go downstairs. Mrs. Spoopendyke brought it to him an hour later ; when dressing, he asked for his necktie. "I wish you'd look for it," querulous ly. "You know I can hardly move." "Here it is, dear," said Mrs. Spoopen dyke, handing it to him. "You tore it off lst night with your sprained arm;" and she left for downstairs without waiting to hear his remark about "meas ly wives, who need a long beard and a c-omio song book to be a Solomon."

There is such a thing ns keeping more than a profitable number of micop ?r cows upon a farm. A lujlf dozen half-starved cows will not yield as much milk as three that have all the food they want.

Among the many excellent modes for raising cream I would not like to say which is best, if indeed any one is best under all circumstances. It will sullice to state a few general principles and let each one decide for himself. 1. To make the finest flavored and longest keeping butter the cream must undergo a ripening process by exposure to the oxygen of the air while it is sweet. This is best done while it is rising. The ripening is very tardy when tho temper ature is low. '2. After cream becomes sour, the more ripening the more it de preciates. The sooner it is then skim med and churned tho better, but it should not bo churned while too new. The best time for skimming and churn ing is just before acidity becomes ap parent. 3. Cream makes better butter to rise in cold air than to rise in cold water, but it will rise sooner in cold water, and the milk will keep sweet longer. 4. Tho deeper milk is set the less airing the cream gets while rising. 5. The depth of setting should vary with tho temperature; the lower it is the deeper milk may be set; the higher, the shallower it should lie. Milk shoidd never be set shallow in a low tempera ture nor deep in a high one. Setting deep in cold water economizes time, labor and space. G. While milk is standing for cream to rise, the purity of the cream, and consequently the line flavoi and keeping of the butter will be injured if the surface of the cream is exposed freely to air much wanner than the cream. 7 When cream is colder than the surrounding air it takes up moisture and impurities from the air. When the air is colder than the cream it takes up moisture and whatever es capes from the cream. In the former case the cream purifies the surrounding air; in the latter the air helps to purify the cream. The selection of a creamer should hinge on what is most desired highest quality, or greatest convenience and economv in time, space and labor. Www L. U. Aruold. How llnix'H ni p Spoiled. How quick a horse beccnies dilapida ted and demoralized after it comes into the possession of some people. It makes no difference how young or how nice they are when they get them, they all look alike iu -less than two years, and alwavs have that d sconraged, de stroyed appearance. I have seen men who claim to have great judgment whom we look to as wise, prudent and shrewd in business - that did not seem to have any idea of what treatment a horse requires. If I had a boy ten years old that was no more capable and reasonable about such things than many people, I should think he was a helpless idiot. Mnnv seem to think that u horse can endure everything, go without feed all day and hall the night, and be off on a journey on bad traveling time after time. When they get home they put them in an old dark pit-pen, throw iu a forkful of hay, the first they come to and "let them rip." They never rub or clean them, and never take any pains to protect them from culd or dampness They overlook, difficulties when in no condition to labor. How many young -tylish horsed Lave we seen all drawn out of shr.po and sagged down, their back cix inches too low in front of the liiln and a foot and a half too long. A horse needs feed regularly and often, as often an live hours at least, at regular honrs iu the dav. Thev cannot bear fasting as well as rumiuatiug ai imais ; but thev should never be crammed full of hay, especially after a long drive, when they have been without it all day, nor just before a hard day's work or long journey. I have seen a good u uny hordes spoiled by cramming and fast iiig It will soon spoil their digestive organs and if long continued it will weaken them and destroy their vitality so that they v ill never take on flush at all, even under good treatment. And so they always remain a crooked, shape less mas-s of unsightly, useless "horse flesh." But strange as it may appear, people never know the difference as long as the animal has a paunch, hair and hoofs ! It is not all work that has brought him to this, 'a here are thou sands of horses that look as well as they ever did. It is the general manage ment. It is not the team horse nor the livery horse so much as the farm horse that shows bad treatment. Some pre tend that the horse has a bad constitu tion or is sick. Others call it a lack of vitality. I should call it a lack of common sense in the cranium of his owner. Houaebold Ilium. To peel any kind of fruit easily pour boiling water over it, and this loosens the skin.

An Iowa farmer who has given bitl 1i n fair liinl found that $4 worth of eonl Insled him two weeks, while the Mime amount of money spent on corn nt twenty cents a bushel kept him in fuel for three weeks. If we only knew wlml price was paid for coal we could easily find the lignre to which corn would have to rise to make it the dearer fuel of tho two. With corn worth only eighteen cents a bushel in the ear, as it is now in that section, it is easy to see that a great deal of it will bo burned this vear. Tho imperial family of Germany is quite able to support itself. If the crown prince were deprived of his in heritance he could easily win bread and butter by his skill as a turner; while his eldest son, Prince Wilhelm, is an excel lent amateur artisan. On the emperor's cabinet are several samples of his dead grandson Waldemar's proficiency as a bookbinder. This acquisition ol a trade is in accordance with the traditionary custom of the royal family, -which pre scribes that every prince of the blood sholl learn some useful handicraft, so as to strengthen his spirit of independ ence and make him wise through actual contact with the material world. A bushman named Shulthorpe has telegraphed from B.ackall, Australia, asserting that he has found the explorer Leichardt's grave, and has recovered the diary of the whole of tho last expedi tion, together with other relics. Leich ardt was an able young German bota nist, who set out to explore the then least known part of Australia some twenty years ago. He disappeared, and though expedition after expedition was sent in search of him and his compan ions, no traces whatever were found of the party, Humors came in from time to time that he was detained among the blacks, or that he had been cut oil' by them, but nothing was ever definitely known as to his fate. The city of Chicago proposes to ven ture upon a new held of achievement and conquest. It is now maturing the details of a musical festival similar to those which have been held in Cincin nati for several years past, and has already settled the following points: "The festival will occur in May of next year; its conductor will be Theodore Thomas, who will have entire and sole control of the music ; a chorus of a thousand voices will be gotten together as speedily as possible and put inlo trailing ; an orchestra of two hundret! of tho best instrumentalists will b. drilled by Thomas, and the solists will he tho greatest living artists." The same orchestra will be used in May fes tivals in New York city and Cincinnati, and tho soloists will be the same in ull.

On tho cedar bluffs of the Cumber land river, five miles south of Somerset, Ky., tho birds havo been holding a con vention. If the accounts are correct all tho feathered tribes known to that region ami many seldom or never see;, in this country have been represented. Their sessions began every day at sun down, ami their number was so great that when disturbed by a curious visi tor the noise of their wings was like distant thunder. The most singulai feature of the gathering was tho perfect harmony and good-wilt that prevailed. The hawk and the dove, the sparrow aiul the owl perched on the same branch and conferred with apparent pleasure ami profit. In the morning when the session ended, tho air was thick with darting forms of every size and color. This description sounds apocryphal, and is probably somewhat exaggerated, but naturalists havo long admitted the oc casional congregation of birds of differ ent species drawn together by some means and for some purpose which baffled all rational attempts at explana tion. A Cunning Hear. The captain of a Greenland whaler, being anxious to procure a bear without stamaging the skin, made trial of the dratagem of laying down the noose of a rope in the snow, and placing a pioce of meat within it. A bear was soon enticed to the spot by tho smell of the meat. He saw the bait, approached and seized it in his mouth, but his foot at the same time, by a jerk of the rope, got entangled in the noose; he pushed it off his paw and retired. After having eaten the piece of meat, which be carried awav with him, he returned. The noose, with another bait, had been replaced ; he pushed the rope aside and again walked off. A third time the noose was laid; but, excited to more caution by the evi. dent obwation of the bear, the sailors buried.tli9 rope beneath the snow, and laid the me it in a deep hole in the cen ter. Once . lore the bear approached, and the sailors were hopeful of their suc cess; but Bruin, more sagacious than they expected, after snuffing about the place fox a Jew moments, scraped the snow away with his paw, threw the rope aside,' aha ogain escaped with his prize. Stock Raisin in the West. The freedom to pasture cattle on ex cellent grazing land, together with an accessible market, are the main reasons why at present stock-farming is partic ularly profitable. The first of these conditions is precarious, and it in evi dent that in ten years there will not be much good free rango left east of the Missouri river. When emigration to that extent shall have shut him off from free pasturage, tho stockman can either sell his farm at probably four times its piesent value, and move to Dakota or Montana, or else turn his attention to fattening stock or grain for other par ties, as 1 havo already suggested. l'or install ns o practical case, there is a cattle man of Council Bluffs who is said to own 100,000 head of cattle in Idaho. He has a range of sixty square miles of land not worth ono cent to the ocre f r agriculture, yet affording excel lent pasture for cattle. He has ten men employed at wages varying from twenty four dollars to forty dollars per mouth to look after the stock. These men require 200 ponie.) to handle the cattle. An overseer is hired at $1,200 a year. During the winter, however, four men ca do all the work required, which is mainly breaking the ice in the streams that tho cattle may havo water. Streams serve as the great check upon the cattle straying away, for they never will go far from water. In the spring of the year the cattle men of the plains have a grand "round up" (as it is called), the stock is picked out by moans of the brand, and those tattle that are meant for the Eastern market are started for Omaha. They travel about ten miles a day and genera ly tako the whole season in the journey from the winter ground to the Missouri bottom. At Omaha the cattle are put on the train and shipped nominally to Chicago, but really to different points along the road to be handed over to fanners for fattening. Mr. Stewart de livered over 1,900 lit ail to farmers last fall, and of these only eight were lost during the w inter. The parties who re ceive the cattle agree to fatten them at the rate o, live cents for every extra pound of weight they add to the ani mal This seems small at first sight, but whero cattle put on 250 extia pouuils during a winter, and where two hogs aro ed from tho refuse of each ox, the farmer finds that the result to him is equivalent to selling his corn at Kid per cent, profit. The large cattle rais ers of course have their inspectors, who travel from farm to farm to look after their property, and gather it together in tho siuing for shipment to Chicago, where they aro either slaughtered or shipped to Europe. The cattle men have a great advantage over more farm ers, in that they are to a great extent independent of railways, if they arc badly treated by one corporation, they have a simple remedv iu driving then- stock a few miles to the next road. lliiiipiir s Mtujiuhie. (irowtli of the Hair. There aro three reasons whv women's hair is longer than men's. First, she uas no inur grow in on nor lace, anil so lias a larger supply of hair-formin material for tho scalp ; second, the diameter of hair being larger, it is less liable to break; third, being usually less engaged in mental labor or business worry, she has a more constant and even supply of blood to the scalp. In' na tions where the hair of men is usually worn short, the fashion of long hair in the male is regarded as a protest against church and state, and against general customs, taste and thought; in Austria it is made a political offense to bo so attired. The growth of the hair is the nost rapid in tho young and niiddle tged, and of those living an out-doci i i'e. At tho age of eighty, if a man lives i long, and if his hair ami beard have .. en close trimmed, he has cut off six mil a half inches of hair annually, oi about thirty feet in all. The hair is the least destructible part of the body. The hair of the ancient Thebans is,'at'ter a lapse of 4,000 years, found to have sur vived tho tombs. The pyramids and he sphynx aro crumbling, but some if the wigs of human hair, exposed to tho mold and moisture of their entombed apartments, are loss de cayed than the luouumeuts themselves, there are threo coloring pigments to the hair yellow, red ami black, and all iho shades are produced by the mixture of these three colors. In pure gold-yellow hair there is only the yellow pig ment; iu red, the red' mixed with yel low; in dark, the black mixed with Veil and yellow; in the hair of the negro there is as much red pigment as in the reddest hair, and had not tho black been most developed perhaps by tho action of the suu the hair of all negioes would be as fiery a red as tho reddest hair of an Englishman.

The Berlin society for training carrier- pigeons recently published some inter esting details concerning the rapid flight of these birds. At the last meet ing in 18S0 the pigeon which won the prize flew in five hours and twenty-seven minutes tlie distance between Cologne and Berlin, which, as the crow flics, measures 295 miles. This is the most rapid flight which has ever been known. The Berlin society owns 1,500 old carrier-pigeons, and during last year bought 350 young pigeons for Paris, Aix-la-Chapelle and Belgium, with a view to ameliorate the breed by a mixture of new blood. Bees have stolen largely from the beet-root sugar-refiners of Paris. One manufacturer alone estimates his loss at $5,000. Worcester (Mass.) Spy. Nothing on Earth so Good. Certainly a strong opinion, said one of our reporters to whom tho following was detailed by Mr. Henry Kasehop, with Mr. George E. Miller, 418 Main street, this city: I suffered so badly with rheumatism in my leg last winter that I was unable to attend to my work, being completely helpless. I heard of St. Jacobs Oil and bought a bottle, after using which I felt greatly relieved. With the use of the second bottle I was completely cured. In my estima tion there is nothing on earth so good for rheumatism as St. Jacobs Oil. It acts liks a charm. William F. Codv was a poor and un known scout on the plains a few years ago.
