"My Darling's Blind." A lady entered a car on the Oak wood road one day the past week lead ing a little girl, perhaps four years old. The mother sat down and lilted the little one to the seat beside her. The child was nibbling at a bit of cake of sugar, now and then turning her face, full of childish love up to her mother, and murmuring some almost unintelligible words of affection. Opposite to mother and child sat an other younger lady, who often smelled a fresh rose which she held. The in nocent little one before lier attracted her attention, and the natural kindness of the sympathetic woman heart prompted her to at once offer the fra grant flower to the little budding lilly opposite. 60 she leaned a bit forward' and spoke: "Baby want the posey?" But the child seemed not to hear. Perhaps it was the noise of the moving car that prevented. Then she spoke a little louder and held the flower for ward temptingly: "Baby may have the posey." The mother heard, for she looked to ward the other lady and smiled—and O, such a look ot heartfelt gratitude of motherly love, yet heavily saddened with such an expressive tinge of sorrow as is seldom seen. And still the lady of the rose pressed upon the little one acceptance of the flower. "Baby, take the rose," holding it al most to the child's hands. And now it seemed she was heard, for the blue eyes turned full upon her would-be patron, and then in a moment she strangely drew back and turned her eyes appealingly toward her mother's face. The lady with the flower show ed her bewilderment in her look, while a pained expression flitted across the face of the mother, who leaned forward and whispered just a word: "My darling is blind !" Then the whole sunless, darkened life of the lair little being—fair as the flower which had been offered to her— came up before the mind. All beauty shut out from her forever! For her 110 foliage-strewn, flower studded scene to follow the bleakness of winter. Xo looking with awe into the mysterious depths of the night sky, sparkling with glittering, twinkling star gems, for over those blue eyes the Creator, in the mystery of his designs, had hung the impenetrable vail. No expectant gaze toward the mother's face tor the gen tlest smile that ever soothes a childish trouble; only the blind passage ot the little hand over and over those fea tures, for one moment's sight of which that growing little one will often and often ofler yearg of existance.®;For her the birds will sing, but the loveliness of form and feather are not. For her, while the babbling stream may make mysterious music, its dimpled waves and winding reaches and verdant banks do not exist. How bitteriy vivid all this, as the lady opened the little hand and shut within it the thornless stem of the rose now bearing a tear 011 its petals! And there were other swimming eyes in the ear. A Dog's Ruse. The other day, I witnessed an amusing instance of canine sagacity worthy of commemoration in print. I was staying with friends who have a varied collection of dogs—a Blenheim spaniel and her five puppies, a fox ter rier and two fine deer-hounds. This happy family are allowed to spend part of the day in the drawing room, pro viding they conform to certain rules as to boundary line? and an amicable agreement among themselves. The hearthrug is the favorite "eoin of van tage" with them all. Zuna, the deer hound, sauntered in one morning and found every approach to the fire block ed by the slumbering forms of her com panions. She tried gently to scratch a passage for herself but was repelled by growls. So, apparently suffering ex treme lowness of spirits, she retired to a distant corner of the room, but not to sleep. For ten minutes she crouched there, pondering silently, then, sud denly bounding up flew to the window and barked as if an invading army was in sight. Of course, every one, human and canine followed in mad haste. The hearthrug was left unoccupied, and Zuna quietly trotted round, stretched her huge form before the fire, and in an instant was snoring heavily, leaving as all staring out into vacancy, emphat ically "sold!" A Cool Husband. . There was one sensible man in this world. He was a soldier, and was re ported to have been killed, but was only a prisoner. He returned home to find that his wife had turned over a new leaf in the marriage service, and that a new man occupied his place in the chimney corner. Did he go to slaughtering his wife and her husband ? Not much. He walked in and said: "Well, old gal, how's things?" "Purty good, Bill," said the doubly married woman, not taken back great ly. "Which do you prefer, the old or the new life?" •*I don't like to hurt your feelings, but—" "Oh, spit it out. Don't mind my feelings nor the other fellow's. 1 won't be angry if you do come down a little bit rough on my vanity. Count on my being amiable, i won't cut up a bit rusty if you shouid go back on me." "I am glad you are so thoughtful, Bill, and I acknowledge that I do like my present husband best, I know of no one else I would sooner join tortures with than you." "That's the way to talk. I'll now bid you good bye, hoping that no acci dent will happen to the other fellow, ■ and that he will live long to enjoy your delightful society. Good day." And the careless husband traveled on with his knapsack on his back, whistling in cheery tones, '"The Girl I Left Behind Me." Roasted coffee is said to be a powerful disinfectant. AGRICULTURE. MARKETING CATTLK. —Whatever time a lot of cattle may take to go to market, they should never be overdriven. There is greatdlfferenoe of management in this respect among drovers. Some like to proceed upon the road quietly, slowly, but surely, ami to reach the market in a placid, cool state. Others, again, drive smartly along tor some dis tance, and then rest to cool awhile, when the beasts will probably get chil led and have a staring coat when they reach their destination; while others like to enter the market with their beast s In an excited state, imagining that they then look gay ; but distended nostrils, loose bowels, and reeking bodies are no recommendations to a purchaser. U >od judges are shy of purchasing cattle in a heated state, because they do not know how long they may have been in it; and to cover any rbk, will give at least live dollars a head below what they would have ottered for them in a cool state. Some drovers have a habit of beat ing the lot with astickwhileon the road. This is a censurable practice, as the tiesh, where it is thumped, will bear a red mark after the animal has been slaughtered—the mark receiving the appropriate name of blood-burn, and the tiesh thus affected will not take on salt, and is apt to putrefy. A touch upon the shank, or any tendonous part, when correction is necessary, is all that is required; but the voice. In most cases will answer as well. The flesh of overdriven cattle, when slaughtered, never becomes properly firm, anil their tallow has a soft, melted appearance. A few large oxen in one lot look best in a market on a position rather above the eye of the spectator. When a large lot is nearly alike in size and appear ance, they look best and mot level on a flat piece of ground. Very large fat oxen never look better than on the same level with the spectator. An ox, to look well should hold bis head on a line with the body, with lively ears, clear eye, dewy nose, a well-licked hide, and should stand firmly on the ground on all his feet. These are all symptoms of high health and good condition. Whenever an ox shitts his standing from one foot to another, he is foot-sore, and has been driven tar. Whenever his head hangs down and his eyes water lie feels ill at ease inwardly. When his coat stares, lie lias been overheated some time, and has got a suosequent chill. All these latter symptoms will he much aggravated in cattle that have been fed in a barn. FEEDING DAIHY Cows. — A good but ter cow ought not to eat less than from six to eight quarts of meal per day, but not clear corn meal, Bran is not worth much to make butter, but when mixed with corn xueal gives health and thrift. The meal, fed alone, passes directly in to the "third stomach" without remas tieation. The water the cow drinks may increase the quantity of milk, but it will not produce butter. Meal fed with hay, cut tine and wet down togeth er, gives good returns. Do your cows drink ice water in the winter, and with rainbow backs stand shivering in the cruel blast of a tierce northeaster? They will burn the dollar that might convert failure into success, to keep themselves warm. Do you feed without racks in a muddy barnyard ? Then the dollar that might tnake you successful, is daily trampled into the mud. Do you feed your cows nothing but hay and straw in winter, and keep them on a short pasture in summer? Then you neglect to put a dollar into the expense scale. How TO TELL HORSES'AGE.— On the lower jaw, a colt sheds the two middle teeth within six months after the second year, and within six months after reach ing the age of three years sheds one tooth on each side of these two new mid dle teeth, and at four years will have a full sat of new teeth on front lower jaw. At five years there will be shells on the corner teeth; at six the two mid dle teeth will be smooth, and at eight years all the lower jaw teetli will be smooth. On the upper jaw, at nine years of age, the two middle teetli will be smooth ; at ten, one tooth on either side of them will be smooth ; at eleyen, all smooth, above and below. At twelve, the corner teeth project; at thirteen, one tooth next them, and at fourteen all project, above and below. Beyond that all is guesswork. SLACK one peck of lime, and while hot and at the thickness of cream add a pint of linseed oil and a quarter pound of dissolved glue. Let it stand a half day before using. This, for interior walls, is tar superior to simple lime and water. It is also first-rate for out-door work, though expensive. For build ings, fences, etc., slake clean, white, fresh lime under water; then add a pound of sulphate of zinc and a pound of salt to every peck of lime. A few rubbing-posts set up in the pasture will save injury to the lences. Cattle will use the e conveniences very often, if provided tor them, ami it is worth all the trouble to witness the en joyment of the animals in the use of them. Relics of "Stuart Cortea." Among the Mexican relics collected by a Russian geneleman are two pieces of light armor, a breastplate and a helmet, found on that memorable battle-field on the shores of Lake Tezcuco, where, on August 12, 1521, the power of the Aztecs under Guatemozin was finally crushed by Cortez. The breastplate is made in two layers, and chased with a good deal of care. On a central band are armorial bearings, above which are two medallion heads. The rest of the ornamentation consists f birds, swords, clubs, poniards and helmets. The helmet, also chased, has brass rosettes just above the rim, and is pierced by a spear hole. A couple of blunderbuss pistols, or namented with brass, were found in the same place. They have the cross and the lion and lillies of Castile, inlaid in gold, on the barrels, nar the flint locks. Another smaller pistol, dating from the early part of the last century, has been polished r.nd cleaned up. On the handle it is stated in Spanish that it is for the use of Don Fran cisco de Yrabia. Two old poniards have also been furbished up for use by the na tives. The finer of the two is of the style of Charles V. A large and curious pair of old Spanish scissors, over two centuries old, have been cleaned and sharpened for the use of some Mexican housewife. There is a flint-lock brass pistol of the last century from Zacatecas, a long knife with a silver shank, which has a modern handle, anil a pair of Spanish stirrups found at Tacubiaja When the Bowels are Disordered, No time should be lost in resorting to a suita ble remedy. Hostetter's Stomach Hitters is the most reliable and widely esteemed medi cine of its class. It removes the causes of constipation, or of undue relaxation of th intestines, which are usually indigestion or a misdirection of the bile. When it acts as a cathartic, it does not gripe and violently evac uate, but produces gradual and natural effects, very unlike those of a drastic purgative; and its power of assisting digestion nullities those irritating conditions of the mucous mnmbrane of the stomach and intestinal canal which pro duce first diarrhoea, and eventually dysentery, The medicine is, moreover, an agreeable one. and eminently pure and wholesome. Appe tite and tranquil nightly slumber are both promoted oy it. DOMESTIC. BROTHS FOR THE SICK.

A decoction of the leaves of common chamomile will de stroy every species of insect, and noth ing contributes so much to the health of a garden as a number of chamomile plants dispersed through it. Xogreen house or hot house should ever be with out it, in a green or dried state; either the stalks or flowers will answer. It is a singular fact that is a plant is droop ing and apparently dying, in nine eases out of ten it will recover if you plant chamomile near it. A NICE stool can be made by taking a soap-box, or any small-sized box, from a groeerv store; fix a lid by nailing pieces of leather on for hinges; fasten a piece in front to lift it up; then cover it with pieces of carpet tacked 011 with brass-headed nails; cut JMUIIC pieces of old quilts to pad tlie top. then cover with carpet and trim around tlie lid with any old cast-off fringe.

THEY WERE THERE. —There were just nine adults and a little girl on a street car recently, when a man rose up and said : "I was intending to go oft' on my summer vacation to-day, but the tailor disappointed me on my clothes. All you gentlemen who were served the same trick will please stand up " Every one of .the other four men got up and gritted their teeth and sat down again. "Now, then," continued the man, "all you ladies who intended to go to day and have been basely deceived by your dressmakers will please raise your right hands." Every lady raised her right hand 011 high and clasped her fingers as if she was pulling her dressmaker's hair. No one was left out but the little girl, and as the speaker declared t e question unanimously adopted she rose up,made a curtsey and said : "Please, sir, I was logo to my aunt's in the country, this morning, but pa couldn't borrow the money to pay my fare."

In order to furnish the arti cles desired, it was necessary to go into an upper story and the salesman said to liis customer: "Just get on; and we will go up." The startled granger looked around and said: "On where?" He was given the desired information, and they started up. The upward flight was evidently something new to tlie farmer, who attested his appreciation of it by remarking: "This beats all nation, don't it?" The salesman said he rather thought it did. In tiie mean time a son of the farmer became impa tient, and came into the store-room be low lookingfor him. The farmer, seeing his son, stepped to tlie hatchway and said : "You can't conie up here son; I came up 011 tiie cellar door, and it's up here yet." * .

"For my part, I prefer an evening passed at home with a pleasant book to attending balls, parties and theatres." Oh, certainly. When a young lady hasn't a beau, nor a new bonnet, nor a new walking costume, she generally prefers to pass the evening at home with a book —which she is too mad to read. BOYHOOD IS candid, and middle age, though it may think the same things, is reticent. "What part of the 'Burial of Sir John Moore' do you like best?"

The fact that "Blower" Brown, who won the great six days' match in England by a score of 643 miles, and that Weston, who won it back Irom him by a score af 660 miles, were botli forty years of age seem to show that for some efforts men reach their physical prime later than has been supposed. For athletics of somo kinds a man is at liis best under thirty, as in wrestling, swift short distance running, boxing, etc. But in long distance matches, which are trials rathar ol endurence than of strength and dexterity, the men ol pver forty have left the young men fur behind, and utterly broken down, while they come out fresli at the finish. Something analogous to this is found in trotting horses. Horses that run reach their prime at four or five years; the trotters often do their best work at the twelve or lourteen years. The reason perhaps be in this, youth is morcjuipple and ffexiblu and its movements, therefore, less reg ular and systematic than those of ma turity. The walk ol' a young man has not the machine-like regularity aud precision that characterize the pace of a walker of long practice. There is consequently some loss of power. The suppleness tiiat is necessary to enable the athlete to run at top of speed, is in his way when machine-likeprecison of pace is the great disideraium. 'i he same remark applies to the trotting horse. The trot is usually an acquired gait, the result of long practice and training. The steadiness of stride that does not "break up" is of the utmost importance. Bui still the recent result ol the pedestrian matches in England, which twice gave the victory to men over forty, when the men ol twenty live and thirty were utterly prostrated by fatigue, shows that with goa care ol ourselves we may keep our physical energies up to a later period of life than is ordinarily supposed. If a man is in his physical prime at forty, he ought not to be far down the hill at fifty. IF YOUR laver is Disordered Hoofan&s Ger man Bitters will set it aright.

It is a perfectly formed hand, which apparently be longed to a boy about fourteen years of age. The hand is open, the fingers be ing slightly bent toward the palm, on which the thumb rests. The back of the hand seems to have been crushed or decomposed before petrified, the palm, thumb and lingers are perfect. It was found at the sulphur beds near Rabbit Hole by one of the men em ployed in shoveling crude sulphur into the refining retort, and is supposed to have been Imbedded in the sulphur bank for ages. The Augers are com paratively short, a fact which indicates that it did not belong to an Indian, as the red men's fingers are generally longer than those of the whites; but the thumb is rather longer than the average. To what race the owner of the hand belonged, and liow and when it was imbedded in the sulphur wi probably ever remain unknown. HieskelTs Tetter Ointment Will cure every form of Tetter.
