The creator never nimle a man to part liis l'air In tlie middles ami say "iveally" for "really," and tlio Creator didnlt intend to have women spend eighteen hours a day over powder nnd paint and end their children into the country to be eared for by some cross-eyed old woman at three dollars tier week. , "o, sir! and no, m'a'atu! If Providence had his way about it He would have small boys play in tho road, roll on the grass and carry ditity noses, instead of being impris oned in starched jackets and threatened with a thrashing if they didn't "pucker their mouths jut like ma." If people want to say "chawmins" fur charming, faint away at the sight of a rat, and lead littlo poodle dogs arouud by little chains, and have their monograms painted on their front doorsteps, why it's all right, only I think it would be a great bore on 'em for fear some mudsill would somo day find out that their grandfathers or fathers sold soap or navigated a llat-boat. I knew Jones years ago j I was a boy and he a man, but I remember that ho was glad enough to haul tanbark at three shillings a load, and that his sons and his daughters picked blackberries and sold 'em to buy starch and saleratui They are "ton" now. Arabella has a fashionable limp nnd a fash ionable squint, says "daw" for day, "hawse" for horse, and it costs her more to paint her cheeks than it does mo to paint my house. Her brother Algernon sports a tender little cane, wears eye-glasses, and his livery bill for a month amounts to more money than his old father earned in six. Their names used to be Jones plain, blunt Jones but now they have it changed to "Jo-ens," and they draw it out a mile long. "Well, I suppose it's all right, but if the old man could rise from his grave and drop in on 'em hu'd wonder if he hadn't struck the wrong house. And it's none of my business if Will La kins wears a diamond pin, alligator boots, swell collars and mauve pants and has three coach dogs at his heels, a French dancing master, goes to Saratoga, owns a race horeo and stays in doors on sunny days for fear of getting his fingers tanned. He stares at me when I go by him, and if I nod he pretends that he didn't see it. It's all right and prob ably he has forgotten how his father used to hoe corn for my father at fifty cents a day, and how his mother drove a milk wagon and old straw hats. ' Folks needn't be stuck up because they have a few dollars in bank. Nature's cur rency is brains and honest hearts, and money needn't .make a man forget that his father run a saw mill and his mother was her own servant. If any one improve on the English language I havo no objoetion3, but let 'em do it without puckering their mouths until they look like mashed watermelons, and without twisting their tongues as if they had a pea nut Bhuck in their windpipes. Coffins aro made to measure, and the earth never asks whether tho dead are bon-ton or paupers. Two Irishmen, on a certain occasion, occu pied tho same chamber. In thn morning ono of thorn asked tho other, "Dennis, did you hear tho thunder in the night?" "No, Pat; did it really thunder?" "Yes; it thundered as If hiven and earth would come together." "Why the duce, then, didn't you wake me, for yo know I can't slape when it thunders 1" Cr.oui'. Croup can be cured in 0110 min ute, and the remedy is simply alum and sugar. The way to accomplish this U to take a knife or grater and shave off in small particles about a teaspoonful of alum; then mix with twice its quantity of sugar, to make palatable, and administer It as quickly as possible. Almost instantaneous relief will follow. A Sacramento lawyer remarked to tho court ; "It is my candid opinion, Judge, that you are an old fool." Tho Judgo al lowed his mildly beaming eye to fall upon the lawyer .1 brief moment ; then, in a volco husky with suppressed emotion, said: "It's my candid opinion that you are fined $100.1' Just tho moment a young man at Lexing ton, Kentucky, lugs homo a fiddle and com mence to scrape and yeowl, just that mo ment a cohort of taxpayers gather and in quire for the rope used at the lost public ex ecution. Borne friend was remonstrating with Clarke, tho actor, about his profanity, und quoted tho scriptural injunction, "Swear not at all." "I don't," said Clarke. "I only swear at those who offend me." Josh Hillings says that a largo policy of life insurance doesn't exactly make a man's corpse smilo at his widow, but it helps amazingly to get uuother fellow to do it for him, A'Miuuesotu sherlfTcairied a bullet iu his head ten years, and when they removed it the other day ho became foolish. They are Jsotinjr for noioofcus to shoot hltn again. Space In Nnntlng Corn. A eornfpondent of tho Oonn!r Gentleman writes "There is more or less disagreement in to the distance corn should bo planted apart, and the number of stalks in a hill, flood crops aro realized from three and a hulf feet planting thrco to four st.il't In n hill. Hotter havo been grown, as 1 have wltnced, 'villi tho rows four feet apart, In cluding the lillts, (which makes the space between t io hills nliout three and .a h.tlf feet,) with three to four ttalks in n hill, the .inference In this case being mainly In the greater number of ear grown, Usually two to a stalk, and largo at that, the larger space between the hills giving chanco for the sun nnd nir to circulate. I have also witnessed a growth of corn where tho spao between was but half of that last mentioned, It was in soil which for several years had grown large crops of carrots, and was especially favorablo to corn, being black, highly ma nured nnd deeply rich, it well drained allu vial deposit. There resulted an Immense growth of stalks, but no corn, although It was the intention of the owner, confidently expressed, to raise an unusually superior crop, it was a tiiiltirc save In the amount ol fodder It made. In that it paid, so great was tho growth. Wo want tho sun and the fresh air in our corn as in our fruit trees. The Ixononiles -f Mfc. The largest item in your table expenses is meat, llecf is high. In our city mat kcts a good steak is worth from twenty to thirty cents per pound. Ileef steak for your family alone would cost, for breakfast and supper, more than two dollars, and then if you had roaut of sirloin for dinner, that would cost nearly as much more. So if that's the right way to live, you are managing well to get on with that six hundred dollars per year Hut do you know that there are only about sixty pounds of the sirloin which is il ted for rjast and steaks, in an ox weighing 8JJ pounds? There are other parts of the animal good solid meat which sell for five cents a pound. Portions ol the neck, which, when projierly cooked, are the most substan tial and nourishing parts of the carcass, are sold for four or five cents a pound. One pound of this cut into small pieces and boiled two hours In thrco quarts of water, in a close vessel, with five cents worth of pota toes, turnips, parsnips and carrots, with salt and popper, and some savory herb, would make a splendid dinner for all of you. lay bits of toasted bread upou the platter, and pour on votir stew. That's a dinner fit for a king. Permanent Whitewash. M ith the return of spring comes the usual inquiry for a good whitewash. Tuke half a bushel of unslaked lime, slake it with boil ing water, covcriug it during tbsr process to keep in tho steam ; strain the liqtiii through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt previously well dissolved in water; three pounds of ground rice boiled to a thin paste, and stirred iu boiling hot water ; half a pound of Spanish whiting, nnd a pound of clean gluo which has previously been dis solved by soaking it first, and then hanging over a slow fire a small kettle inside a large one filled with water ; add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, stir it well, aud let it stand a few days covered from the dirt. It should be put.ou quite hot; for this purpose it can be put iu a kettle or a furnace. pint of this mixture will cover a yard square of the outside of a house, if applied with a large paint brush. The objection to salted whitewash for out side fences is that cattle will lick it. Tbo Petakws. Some of the household recipes given iu the papers ore calculated to do more harm than good. Mrs. llopson'a servant girl re cently read in the paper that "potatoes should bo of uniform size to cook evenly." It was more thantwo days before she found the meaning of the word "uniform," and then she went to work on half a bushel ot potatoes. As she couldn't make the smallc: tho size of the largest, she pared down the large ones until they were as small as the smallest, and as the latter was about tho size of a walnut, she had a weak lot ol potatoes by the time sho had made them of uniform size, and a quart measure would have held them all. The potatoes wore "short" for dinner that day, andj as an explanation and some very sharp words followed, Mrs. Hop- son's servant girl bow cooks potatoes of all sizes in one pot. Learn A Trade. Every boy, rich or poor, should be taught a trade or profession. Iu tin's country the children of the wealthiest men may become poor, and they should bo capable of self-support. Very few skilled mechanics become criminals, but many educated young men mnybo found in penitentiaries; for such per sons tiro often too weak physically for man ual labor, aud too proud to engage in what they call menial employment, and they must steal or starve. A man who has thoroughly learned a trade or profession, although he may never havo occasion to follow it for a livelihood, will always feel more indepen dent and less fearful of a reverse of fortune than ho who has nothing to fall back upon. No man with proper helf-respcct will be an habitual Idler, for it is the duty of every one to do somo good in tho world j and a good trade is even better than an education. The royal family of Prussia acts upon that idea nnd every son is compelled to learn a trade. Kuipcror William learned printing, and thu crown prince is a tinner. A Nuw Catechism. Whom did Adam marry, and whea did he marry her? Ono Eve. What wu3 her bridal dress ' Barely noth ing. Not even a ribbon 1 No, sho had uo need of one sho was a rib-bono herself. When Adam and Evo were in the garden ing business, what time did they commence picking apples.? In the fall. Spirit as well as sugar comes from cane ; what evil resulted from Coin's aplrit7 Abel got slewed. What reason havo we to suppose that Cain ulso got slewed? lrb went Immediately to the land of Nod. Who was the wisest man 1 Knowcr. Why did not Cuiti uiobo good sugar ? Be cause he wasn't Abel. Why was Adam's tint day the longest? Becauso there was no Eye, When did Alwalom Bleep five, in u bed ?. When ho slept with his forefathers. Why did Job always sleep cold ? Becanso he had miserable, coraforjers. If old Uncle Watklns, of Iowa, had not been trying to split wood and talk about Bccchcr at tbo same tiruo, he might not have chopped olf his big toe. There are things in tills world which must be done separately, A white garment appears worse with slight soiling thou du colored garments much soiled. So a little fault in a good man attracts more attention than a great of fence in a bad man.
