And there they sat a popping corn,
.lohti styles and Sus in outer,
John stiles as Ml us anv ox,
And Susan, tnt as butter.
And there they sat, and shelled tho corn,
And mkd and stirred tho lire.
And talked of different kinds of ears.
And hitched their chairs up nlgher.
Then Susan, sho the popper shook,
Then John hi shook the hopper,
Till both their faces grew as red
As sauce-pans uiado of copper.
And then they shelled, and popped, and ale,
All kinds of fun a poking,
And he haw-hawed at her remarks,
And she laughed ut his Joking.
And still they popped, and still they ate,
John's mouth was llko a hopper.
And stirred the fire and sprinkled salt,
And shook and shook the popper.
TIM clock struck nine and then struck ten,
And still the corn kept popping;
It struck eleve then struck twelve,
And still no sign of stopping.
And John he ate, and Susan thought
Tho corn did pop and pa' tor:
Till John cried out, "The corn's afire!
Why, Susan, what's tho matter?
Said she, "John stiles. It's one o'clock.
You'll die of indigestion;
I'm 4ckof all this popnlng corn
Why don't you pop tho question? "
Treatment of the (Iraiie.
Tho question of the proper training of
vines in this country seems as yet far from
being properly understood, says a Chester
county, (Pa.) correspondent I notieo that
the practico of close pruning is employed
successfully nbroad, and that in California
the vineyards are for the mo3t part a rcpeti
tion of thc?e, snthat northern men who arc
always on the lookout for tho result of success
fill methods, copy these phototypes too close
ly, and end by fatally injuring their vines
Thcro nro two reasons for this result. The
first mid most important of which is, that
all varieties of tho 17it rinifera or Europe
an grape, seems to relish severe pruning.
while our American varieties evidently (lis
like such treatment. The second reason is.
that our climate is decidedly averse to tho
low, shrub-like system of training, and in
its character is essentially distinct from both
Europe, and tho Pacific coast. I believe.
therefore, that tho sooner our cultivators at
the north allow their vines moro liberty to
clamber, the sooner we shall hear of success
in some point at least where no grape cul
ture is a certain failure. In some parts o
Italy trees are planted in the vineyard rows
over which tho vines run riot ; and this is
the system to which I hare alluded before as
a step toward producing sound healthy
wood and foliage, and in consequence per
feet fruit. Another practice which I believe
to be mischievous in its tendency, bo far as
it relates to grapes, is tho indiscriminate
trenching of all soils without properly as
certaining their true character in advance,
I have seen so many instances of failure.
even tho soil had been trenched two and
even three feet deep by the spade at alienor
mous expense, that it strikes mo the prac-
tice should not be lauded too highly with
such evidences of its futility staring us in
tho face. Tho theory of a moro perfect
drainage, and hence, more moisture in th
soil during severe drouths, reads well, and
appeals to our reason in a very forcible
manner, yet experience in very many cases
tells a very different tale. I do not wish to
be understood as condemning tho system of
deep cultivation, but there are classes of soils
when thorough trenching is not only useless.
but hurtful.
How to Get Kick.
He had saved n few hundred dollars be
fore he was twenty-lire years old, at which
time he bought a farm, paying for what he
had, and then finding that he spent too much
time in cooking, he married a strong, healthy
woman, leaving the hayfield an hour and
half to' have tho ceremouy performed, when
ho returned to his work and his wife went
into tho kitchen to get dinner. Of course
they could not afford a bridal trip nor any
thing of tho kind, nor could they afford
have children, and they lived forty years
blessed with health, working all day long,
wet or dry, out doors and in. Churning,
wood-sawing and shelling corn were done
after dark.
They always had apple sauce and never
wanted butter ; salt pork answered instead
of beef or fish; potates instead of eggs;
and if they thought they needed doctoring
they drank thoroughwort and catnip tea,
and soaked their feet in 'warm water. Of
books they had no need, because they had
no timo to read, though they made out to
read tho tracts given them, so that nothing
might bolost. They never attended church,
becauso they had money which they could
worship, and they could not afford to give
to the poor some day. For a quarter of a
century ho hauled hay twenty miles to mar
ket, getting $8 to $10a ton, all of which was
t a veil, since ho carried his victuals in n round
box, and bed clothes, so that he could sleep
in tho wagon.
Ten years ago ho was sixty years old, and
ho was so crippled in various ways with hard
work, having varieoso veins nnd ruptures
nnd somo other little things, and their farm
which had become tho best in thecountry,
was sold, bringing over $-10,000, and this
with their extra stocks made up a value of
50,000, all of which was put into GoveriP
went bonds, and then they were making
money faster than ever. He bought a small
piece of twenty acres ol choice land, which
they worked to the best advantage, keeping
cows, hogs and poultry. Ho is now seventy,
They rise every day at 4 o'clock, when he
goes to woik, allowing himself half an hour
at noon, returns from work at dark, milks,
feeds tho hogs, churns, shells corn, and pur
sues tho even tenor of his way. In
over particular sho is his mate, the house U

as good fts they have at homo. Now th
shadows are falling, tho light of lifo begins
to glimmer, but they are rich aud why
should they not be happy f But there is one

The intoxicating power of all these liquids
depends almost wholly upon tho amount of

the intoxication is very much modified by

cuts that it contains, tho less likely it is tn
give ne to bad aftcr-cficcU. From some
recent experiments Dr. Richardson, of Lou
don, camo to the conclusion that methylic
alcohol is )ca injurious than common alco
hoi, and he says:-
form, recommended this methylic lighter
anirit nnd I am witisfinil with liAtrjr result
spirit, anti, i am satisnou, wun oetter results
than if the heavier or ethylic spirits had
licen employed, I have venturcil also to
. .... I
suggest tint in many cases other physicians
.n. .1. .! l.i. .l
inigiii iuiiuit nio suuiu irucucu mm autou- i
tage, for methylic alcohol is much more
rapid in its action and much less prolonged
in its effects than common alcohol, and what
is of most importance, it demands tho least
possible ultimate expenditure of animal
force for its elimination from the body,
This latter fact, I repeat, is of great moment,
for in the end all these alcoholic fluids are
depressants, and although at first by their
calling vigorously into play the natural
forces, they seem to excite and aro therefore
called stimulants, they themselves supply no
force at any time, but cause expenditure of
force, by which means thoy get away out of
the body and therewith lead to exhaustion
and paralysis of motion."
Butylic alcohol, and in more marked de-
greo amylie alcohol or fusel-oil, even in
small doses, produces all tho symptoms of
delirium tremens. Now it is these very
alcohols that cive to distilled liquors their
peculiar flavors, The flavor of whiskey is
largely duo to the lusel oil that it contains,
Fusel-oil is often so abundant in whiskey
distill! from tho potato as to make it pois
onous when taken in even small quantities
During our lato war the Sanitary Commls'
sion made a careful inquiry into this subject
of alcoholic stimulants, and recommended
for use pure alcohol diluted with moro or
less water according to circumstances. They
had to corao to the conclusion that it was
almost impossible to get pure liquors or to
test them after having got fjicm. This 95
per cent, alcohol mixed with about its own
bulk of water would be equivalent to whia-
key or brandy, and when mixed one part to
four of water would equal sherry or port.
Alcohol can be obtained absolutely pure,
while scarcely any liquor containing alcohol
uuu uu uuuuucu pure wuu ueruumv, it is a
notorious fact that tho higher the prico of
alcoholic liquors, the more they aro liable to
be adulterated and imitated,
Whiskey can bo obtained pure iu all the
large cities, and is generally pure, provided
that HOino particular celebrated brand is not
sought for. The common corn whiskey,
from two to three years old, that may be
found on sale at most of the dealers, is gen
erally free from all but a trace ol fusel-oil
and contains no other injurious substances,
This is the bucis of moat of tho fancy brands
of whiskey and indeed of most other spirits,
although for the manufacture of those in
which the whiskey flavor would be too
strong, 'it is customary to purify it still
further and produce the article known as
proof spirits. With proof spirits and the
skillful use of various essences, and iu some
caees of a little of the genuine liquor, the
mixers are able to produce on a few hours'
notice on exact imitation of any celebrated
brand that may bo called for. The same
thing is true of wine, the only requisites
being some cheap wine or clarified cider,
proof spirits, and flavoring extracts, or some
of tho genulno wine for flavoring.
Wo can lay down as a general result of
much inquiry :
1st. That in buying any liquors the
chances are about even that they will bo
adulterated in some way,
2d That whatever is present beyond
mere alcohol, be it sugar, fusel-oil, or any
thing else, will be more or less injurious.
3d. That pure alcohol, frco from any in
jurious substances, can generally bo ob
tained.
4th. This is the least ebjcctlouablo of all
tho forms in which it is found, doliig the
work required of it with let bad effects.
And, in conclusion, that whilo in some
cases alcohol may be a valuable mcdicjuc, it
can only bo regarded as a drug whose con
tinned u xi tail not fail to end in barm, and
as one vvhl eli should no more be Ukeu with
out the advrco of a physician than ojiiam or
strychnine.
Pruning iu winter should be practiced
only on hardy trees, such an the apple, nnd
it should be performed to a moderate extent
at a time on orchard tree. We never recom
mend heavy suiting away. It is better to
allow a tree to remain a little deformed, lop
sided, or dense beaded, for a year or two, till
the work can be accomplished gradually,
(These remarks do not apply to young nurs
erv trees.) A European cultivator has
recently given In Mibstonce the following
good directions: in sawing on a limD.set
the saw below and cut up part way, and
then cut from' above to meet it. This pre
vents tho limb from tearing away the bark
In falling. Or, a better way, saw off the
limb freely, leaving a stump about a foot
long. Then, holding this stump in the left
hand, cut off neatly and carefully, Cut as
closely as may be done without making too
large n wound; like the skillful surgeon,
save skin. Never leave a projecting stump,
which will disfigure the tree for many years
before it is grown over. Use sharp tools, of
the best steel J thus saving much labor,
leaving a smooth face, aud cutting more ac
curately just where you want to. Nothing
is better than one or two coats of oil-paint
for covering the wound; and if it is ash or
slate color, or having tbt aue "hade as tho
bark, the orchard will not appear defaced by !
the operation. 1
