OYSTERS IX ST. LOUS.
HOW A LUMBERMAN "WORKED OUT" SIX
"TINS" IN ONE DAY.
Job Gl vens is from the lumber region of
Wisconsion, and until yesterday, says a
St Louis paper, had nev?r eaten an oyster,
It wasn't his fault, nly his misfortune.
Job belonged to the truly rural, and some- j
tow or other oysters had never came in
Job Given's way. Fore some reason Job
bad drifted to St. Lonis to find something
to do and by chance he came yesterday
morning to where an oyster dealer was
packing oysters in boxes for Christinas or
ders. Job stood looking on for about an
hour, and then he said to the oyetermau :
'Say, captain, what have you got in them
things?'
'Baltimore oysters.'
Oysters, eh ? I'd lite H Iwve one of
'em.'
'One can ?
'JS"p, one oyster. I've heervd tell on 'cm.
Pears to me I'd like to hev one mighty
well.'
The oystermau took Job Givcns inside
and picked out and yster iiom the tureen.
He turned it over an over on the fork, put
his tongue to it, smelt It, and still he
couldn't make up his mind exactly what to
do with it
'It's all light, 1 suppose V faid Job.
''Of course it's all right.'
Job put it cautiously to ids month, and
finally into his mouth, and the moment it
came off the fork it slid down his throat.
Well, I'm darned,' said Job Given, 'if
that arn't queer ; the critter didn't give a
fellow any show. K.iy. Major. an't you
stand another ?'
The oysterman forked oui another to soe
the fun, and this one Job took good caie to
taste. lie taught it in his teeth, and there
he held it, afraid to let go. At length it
went the way of all oyster, ami Job said
quietly :
It's a big thing, !l its looks anyhow,
bay , Colonel, how main's in one of fheni
ins.'
'Fourjnr live dtwn.'
"Is that a fact ? Say, 1 aru't got any
money, but IM like la work out on of
them tins."
The oyster man w.nu aud s i he
said to Job. 'Pitch iu. then, and earn your
can.'
After working a couple of hours, carry
ing up boxes and doing the rough work.
Job stopped and ask'.-d him for his tin. ll
was (V-'U to him and then the trouble was
to open it. lie had about as clear au idea
of doing this as he had of reading Hebrew.
At last they opened the can for him, and
lie sat in the cellar pouring the oysters
down his throat out of the can. They of
fered him a lbik aud a plate, but that pro
cess was too slow for Job wanted to know
if he couldn't work out another tin, and
the ovtitt'ttuon et him to work UL-ain. At
ihe end of another two hours .lob, who had

A ruau iu Hartford has stopped his news
paper because his name was printed in a
list of advertised letters, and his wife;, hap
pening to see it first, went to get it for him,
and found it was from a youn lady, who
complained that lie didn't meet her at Wor
cester, as he promised.
'See," said a sorrowing wife, "how
peaceful the ct and dog are." "Yes," said
the petulant husband, "but just tie them
together and then see how they'll fight !''
Rut if every man aud woman would try to
hold together as they do to catch each other
there would Iw more happiness iu the
world. j
An association is being formed in town :

a CERTAIN DISEASE.
When the misguided and imprudent vuturv of
pleasure tlnds that he hus iiuhilx-d the seeds of
this painful disease, il too often happens that au
ill-timed sense of hame, or dread f discovery,
deters him from applying to those who. from
education aud rei-pcctal-ilitv, can aloue befriend
him, delaying tili 'he constitutional symptoms ot
this hiirri.l disease make their appearance, such
as ulcerated s.iie throat, dieejbed nose, uoctural
pains in the head and limbs, dimness of tight,
d. afuers, uodes on the shiu bones and arms,
blotches on the head, face and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the
palate of the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
in, aud the victim of this awful disease becomes
a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
a jK-riod to his dreadfiil suffering, by sending
him to "that Undiscovered Country from whence
no traveller returns."
It is a melancholy fact that thousands DIE
victims to this terrib'e disease, through f illing
into the hands of Ignorant or uusklllful PRE
TENDERS, who, by the use of that deadly Poi
son, Mercury, Ve., destroy the constitution, and
Incapable of curinjf, keep the uuhappy sufferer
month aft:::- month taking their noxious or In
jurious compounds, and instead of being restored
Ui a renewal of Life Vigor aud Hoppiucps, iu des
pair leave him with ruined Health to ii;b voi
his galling disappointment.
To such, therefore, Dr. Johnston pledges him
self to preserve the most Inviolable tiecrecv, an1
from his extensive pun lice and observations in
the great Hospitals of Europe, and the first It:
this country, viu : England. France, Philadelphia
and elsewhere, is enabled to offer the most cer

gar Bitters arc a purely Vegetoble
preparation, made chiefly from the mtive
herbs found on tbo lower ranges of the
Sierra Nevada mountains of California,
the medicinal properties of which are
extracted therefrom without tho ust of
Alcohol. The question is almost daily
asked, " What is the cause of tho unpar
alleled success of Vinegar Bitters 1 '
Our answer is, that they remove too
cause of disease, and tho patient recov
ers his health. They aro the great
blood purifier and a life-giving princi
ple, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator
ot the system. Never before In the his
tory of the world has a medicine been
compounded possessing the remarkable
Suallties of Vinegar Bitters in healing
i eick of every disease man is beir to.
They are a gentle Purgative at well as a
Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation
of the Liver and Visceral Organs in BilioJi
Diseases.
The properties of Db. Walkee's
Yutboar Bittim are Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-irritant, Sudorific, Altera
tive, and Anti-Bilious.

of Xaturc's Own Vitalizing?
Agent, Iron in the blood, and
cures t4a thousand ills," simply
by Toning up, Invigorating and
Vitalizing tlie System. The en
riched and vitalized blood per
meates every part of the body,
repairing damages and waste,
searching out morbid secre
tions, aud leaving nothing for
disease to feed ttpon.
This is the secret of the won
derful success of this remedy in
curing Dyspepsia, Liver Com
plaint, Dropsy, Chronic Diar
rhoea, B oils, Xcrvous Affections,
Chills ami Fevers, Humors,
Loss of Constitutional Vigor,
Diseases of tho Kidneys and

and all diseases originating in
a bad state of the blood, or ac
companied by debility or a lota
state of the system. Being free
from Alcohol, in any form, its
energizing effects are not fol

tion, but are permanent, infu

life into alt parts of the system,
and building up an Iron Con

by the use of this remedy, from

SPARE THE HORSE.
Ob, teamster, spare that horse,
How hard he tries to go,
There's load enongb for two,
Don't strike another blow.
Give him a helping hand,
Or ease the load, I pray,
And he yonr kindness will
A thousand fold repay.
How patiently be toil
All through the heat and cold,
A faithful servant still,
Though wearied worn and old.
Poor, dumb, unconscious brute !
And yet be seems to know,
Caressing of the hand
That deals the cruel blow.
What an Imploring look,
And what a knowing eye,
And yet without the power
To ntter even a cry.
See how be writhes and shakes,
While smarting with the pain,
Oh, cruel driver, paase !
Don't strike the brute again.
Humanity, at last,
Brought to a sense of ahume,
Will punish those who give

Oh, driver, spare that horse,
How hard he tries to go ;
Thert't load enough far ttto,
Don't strike another blow.
Diseases of Hogs. For mane.cholera
and worms in hogs the Planter and Tanner
gives the following method of treatment :
"There are but three diseases requiring
treatment, which are mange, cholera and
worms in the kidneys, commonly known
as breaking down in the loins. For mange,
wash well with lye soap, and then pot li
quor. For cholera, if you know the dis
ease, as soon as you see the hog begin to
droop and try to vomit, gag him, and give
hi ui twenty grains of calomel made into a
pill. If you have been in the habit of giving
your hogs spirits of turpentine, at the rate
of one tablespoonful to the hog, put it on
corn, and you will be rarely troubled with
this fatal disease. If the first dose of cal
omel does not relieve in twenty-four hours,
repeat the dose. I rarely have to repeat
it if administered in time. We sometimes
see hogs dragging their hind legs. This is
caused by worm iu the kidney, and may be
easily cured by giving a teaspoonful of tur
pentine every morning for three or four
days mixed with corn. Hogs which have
been feeding on acorns are most subject to
this disease, and should have the turpen
tine at least once or twice a week while
feeding on this mast. Every hog feeder
should keep a bottle of the spirits of
turpentine and give it occasionally through
the year ; he will find it of great benefit to
his hogs. I have practiced this for twenty
years successfully. It seems to be a speci
fic for all hog diseases."
Look over the Seed. Selecting and
assorting seed required fur next season's
crop is good work for loug winter evenings
and stoimy da vs. When the spring comes
there will be no time to select the best ears
of corn, or assort beans and potatos, or
clean the foul seed from the wheat, rye,
oats, and similar grain that is to be used
for sowing. Vegetable seeds should also
be looked over, aud if there is any old
stock ou hand throw it away or test a
small quantity, and learn whether it will
vegetate before it is loo late in the seasou
to oittaiu a fresh supply. Many losses oc
cur annually among our farmers and gar
deners in consequence of their neglect to
get ready in time for spring work.
Culture of Asperagus. J. S. Col
lins, of Moorestown, followed with a capi
tal essay on the culture of Asparagus. It
was regarded as a very profitable crop un
der ordinary circumstances. The discus
sion which followed turned chiefly on the
proper depth to plant ; some would plant
six inches under ground, and others one
foot. So far as we could judge, the diffe
rence of opiniou resulted from different
soils. Wc noted that all who lived in light
sandy regions favored deep planting ;
while those who worked heavy ground
seemed to favor the more shallow depth.
It was universally conceded, by all who
participated in the discussion, that there
was but one variety cultivation alone
making all the difference in the size or qua
lity of the article.
Low vs. IIioii Fruit Trees. An Illi
nois fruit grower, who has 12,000 apple,
and from 4,000 to 6,000 pear trees, find
that "those with low heads, of the same
varieties, show at least two-thirds more
fruit? as large or larger, and as high color
ed as those with high tops." To test the
matter he cut off in certain rows all the
limbs from four to six feet from the ground,
and in others he encouraged the limbs to
start close to the surface, and in the latter
case neither thinned or pruned except oc
casionally to lop away a too lusty shoot in
order to preserve a symmetrica appear
ance or evenly balanced head, and the
above is the result.
Chic kes Cholera. An Indiana lady
says there is no such thing as chicken cho
lerathat it is lice that kills the chicken,
and adds : "When yon see them go mop
ing or sitting about, refusing to eat, catch
one and look at her head and under her
wings, and about the oil bag, and you will
find huudreds of lice. Grease them with
fried meat grease and they are well."

Oyster Patties is Butter. Make a
batter with the yolk of one egg or more,
according to the amount of ousters you in
tend to prepare, a little nutmeg, some beat
en mace, a little flour and a little salt ; dip
in the oysters and fry them in lard to a nice
light brown. If preferred, a little parsley
may be shred very fine and mixed with the
batter. The batter may also be made thick
er and formed into the shape of a patty, or
put a small tin mould, the oyster, being
dropped in and covered over, and the whole
baked as a pudding wpuld be. Otrman

Renovating Old Feathers. Expose
them to the sun in an old mosquito net (or
coarse corn sacks will answer) until per
fectly dry, shaking them up from time to
time. To get out the dust, they must be
tied up in some convenient place in the
yard and well beaten up with the hands or.
a stick (the person standiug to windward,
of course). If a lace net is used, feather
may be as thoroughly dried and sifted in
this way as can be desired.
