A question before the California, Courts is,
"Whether a woman is to bo considered n
widow because) her husband is in tho Stato
prison for life."
A Fulton countv man canturint? a rattle
snake, set about teaching it somo tricks. He
was on tho high road to success when they
had to bury him.
It looks bad to see n dog preceding his
master down tho street nnd calmly turn in tn
tho first saloon ho approaches. It shows
thoro is something wrong, something lack
ing, a deplorable tendency on tho part of
tho dog.
An exchange well says : "Tho man who
stops his paper to economize, is lil:o
tho man who goes barefooted to save his
shoes, and his intelligence nt tho end of the
year will faro as badly as his unclothed
feet."
It is suggested that slates bo hung in tho
vestibules of our churches to cnablo tho
young ladies to register their names on en
tering for evening service. If this plan is
adopted, tho young men won't have to wait
outside until church is out to seo if their
charmers are present. 1J Wen Mail,
Kind HriAimn. A man of Lombert-
street cast, going homo at a lato hour in tho
night, saw that tho occupants of a house,
standing Hush with tho street had left a
window up, and he decided to warn them
and prevent a burglary. Putting his head
into the window ho called out:
"Hollow 1 good peop !"
That was all ho said. A wholo pailfull of
water struck him id tho face, and, as ho
staggcrd back, n woman shrieked out :
"Didn't I tell you what you'd get if you
wasn't homo by nino o'clock?"
Good fob Lean Women. If any ono
wishes to grow fleshy, a pint of milk taken
before retiring at night will cover tho scraw.
nicst bones. Although now-a-days wo seo a
great many fleshy females, yet thero arc
many lean and lank ones who sigh for the
fashionable measure of plumpness, and who
would bo vastly improved in health and ap
pcaranco could their figure bo rounded with
good solid flesh. Nothing is more coveted by
Thin women than a full figure, and nothing
will so rouse) the iro and provoko tho scandal
of ono of the "clipper-builds" as tho con
sciousness of plumpness in a rival. In cases
of fever and summer complaint milk is now
given with excellent results. Tho idea that
milk is "feverish" lias exploded, and it is
now the physician's great relianco in bring
ing through typhoid patients, or those in too
low a stato to be nourished by solid food. It
is a great mistake- to scrimp tho milk pitcher.
Take moro milk and buy less meat. Look to
your milkmen ; have large-sized, well-filled
milk pitchers on tho table each meal, and
you will also have sound flesh and light doc
tor's bills.
A Philosophical Colore! Man.
An elderly colored man, with a very phil
osophical and retrospective cast of counte
nance, was squatting upon his bundlo on tho
hurricane deck of ono of tho western river
steamers, toasting his shins against tho
chimney, and apparently plunged in a stato
of profound meditation. His dress and ap
pcaranco indicated familiarity with camp
" life, and it being soon after tho siego and
capturo of Fort Donaldson, I was inclined
to disturb his reveries, and on interrogation
found that ho had been with tho Union forces
at tho place, when I questioned further. His
philosophy was so peculiar, that I will give
his views in his words, as near as memory
will serve mo :
"Were you in tho fight?"
"I hndalittlo taste of it, sa."
"Stood your ground, did you?"
"No sa, I runs."
"Run at tho first fire, did you?"
"Yes, sa, an' would havo run soona, had
I Juiow'd it was comin'."
"Why, that wasn't very creditable to your
courage.'"
"Dat isn't my lino, sa ; cookln's my pro
fession," "Well I but you have regard for your rep
utation?" "Ileputation'd nufiiu' to mo by do sldo of
life."
"Do you consider your lifo worth moro
than other people h."
"It's worf moro to mo sa."
"Then you must valuo it very highly 1"
"Yes, sa, I docs ; moro dan all dis world,
moro dan a million dollars, sa, for what
would that be worth to a man wid do bret
out of him. Sclf-prcberbation is do first law
wld me."
Hut why should youacton a different rulo
from other men 1"
"Cause, sa, diff'ront men acts diff'ront
valuo upon desselvea ; my lifo is not In dor
market."
"But if you lost it you would havo the
satisfaction of knowing that you died for
your country."
"What satisfaction would that bo to mo
when do power of feelin was gouo 1"
"Then, "patriotism and honor aro nothing
to you,',
"Nufiiu1 whatever sa."
"If our soldiers wcro all .like you, Irai
tors might havo broken up tho government
wJtlwut resistance1"
"Yes, sa ; der would havo been no help
for It. I wouldn't put my life in do scales
'gainst no gubcrment dat ebcr existed, for no
gubcrment could replaco do loss to me.
'Spect dough dat do gubcrment safe da all
liko mo."
"Do you think any of your company
would havo missed you if you had been
killed?"
"Maybe not sa, A dead whito man ain't
innch wid dese sojers, let alone a dead nlgga;
but I'd a missed myself, and dat was do pint
wld mo."
Siy ami When Lamps Hxploile.
All oxplosiom of coal oil lamps aro caused
by tho vapor or gas that collects In the space,
abovo tho oil. When Aill of oil of courso a
lamp contains no gas, but Immediately m
lighting tho lamp, consumption of oil begin',
soon leaving n space for gas, which com
mences to form ns Iho lamp warms tip, nnd
after burning a short time sufllclcnt gas will
accumulate to form an explosion. Tho gas
lu u lamp will explode only when ignited,
In this respect It Is liko gunpowder. Cheap
or Inferior oil Is always tho most dangeiom,
Tho flame Is communicated to tho gas
In tho following manner: Tho wick tube
In all lamps is mado larger than tho wick
which is to pass through it. It would not do
tn havo tho wick work tightly in tho burner j
on tho contrary, it is essential that it movo
up and down with perfect cmc. In this way
it is unavoidable tint spaco in tho tube Is
left along tho sides of tho wick sufficient for
tho ll.tnie from tho burner to paw down into
tho lamp and explode tho gas.
Many things may occur to causo the flatno
to pass down tho wick tube and explode the
lamp.
1. A lamp may bo standing on a tablo or
niantlo and n slight puir of wind from tho
open window, or the sudden opening of n
door, causo nu explosion.
2. A lamp may be taken up quickly from
a tablo or mantlo and instantly explode.
ft. A lamp is taken into an entry whero
thero is n draft, or out of doors, and an explo
sion ensues.
1. A lighted lamp is taken up a flight of
stairs or is raised quickly to placo it on tho
mantle, resulting in nu explosion. In all
theso cases the mischief is done by tho air
movement either by suddenly checking tho
draft or by forcing air down tho chimney
against the flame.
6. lilowing down tho chimney to extin
guish tho.light is a frequent causo of explo
sion, 0. Lamp explosions havo been caused by
ming a chimney broken off at tho top, or ono
that has a piece broken out, whereby tho
draft is rendered variable and tho flame un
steady. 7. Sometimes a thoughtless person puts a
small-sized wick in a largo burner, thus
leaving considerable spaco iu tho tube along
tho edges of tho wick.
8. An old burner, with its draft clogged
up, which rightfully should be thrown away,
sometimes continued in' use, and tho final
result is an explosion.
Horses and Mules.
Thero is no good reason why mules should
not bo more generally used than they arc,
especially by farmers. They are much hard
ier and much moro easily kept than horscsi
and what Is better still, they seldom becomo
frightened or unmanageable, except when
balky ; and it is better to have a balky mule,
which can often bo cured by kind treatment,
than a Billy horse that can only be prevented
from tearing everything to peices by constant
vigilanco and the use of all the muscle of a
strong man. Many persons object to mules
on account of their vicious propensities. It
is truo that many of them are stubborn and
treacherous, but such a disposition is often
causod by the brutality with which they are
treated when young. It is often supposed
that nothing but blows will conquer a mule,
but on tho contrary wo have seen mules
(which wero not only family pets, but which
showed fully as warm an attachment to those
who fondled them as any pet horso would
do. They are much less slow than oxen,
and In theso days of noisy steam cars and
shrieking whistles they are, except in appear
ance, far preferablo to many of the Billy and
easily scared horses everywhere to bo met
with. Under tho saddle a trained mulo is
easily ridden, and if not vicious or spoiled
in which case it is almost suicide to attempt
to rido him ho will amble along at a rapid
and easy gait, with far less fatiguo than a
horse. Tho day when the mulo will bo
emancipated from canal boat drudgery by
tho steam engine is rapidly approaching, aud
it might bo well for farmers and horso train
ers to pay some attention to tho training of
the hitherto despised, but very useful animal,
the mulo, for road and farm purposes.
The Quakeress and tho ShcrilT.
Some of onr readers may have heard of
Reuben Summerton, tho Quaker, who lived
for many years in Salesboro. Once iupon a
time thero was a sectional difficulty in that
unusually quiet town, and friend Reuben
got somehow mixed up in it. A writ against
him wa3 placed in the hands of deuputy
Sheriff Seaman, and the ready officer Bet out
forthwith to serve it. Arrived at tho Qua
ker's house,, ho asked if Mr. Summerton was
in. Tho good wifo Ruth had answered tho
officer's summons, and sho said to him :
"My husband is nt home, Bir, and it thee
will come in and be seated, he will speedily
soo thee."
Tho Sheriff entered the clean sitting room
and sat down. Ho waited until ho had be
como anxious and tired, when seeing tho
fair Quakorcsa in tiio yard he went out and
hailed her.
"Did you not promisothat I should speed
ily seo your husband ?"
"Nay, friend," with tho sweetest Brailo
imaginable, "I promised that ho would see
thee. Ho has seen thee. Ho did not liko
thy looks, and thereforo avoided thy path,
leaving tho houso by another way. Ho hath
left his home, and may not return until this
bad business is settled."
Deputy Sheriff Soaman scratched his car
as ho drovo out from tho Quaker's door
yard.
Tho American system for barreling rm
pics for exportation astonishes Europeans
greatly. In Lngland apples nro placed on
shelves in fruit houses, constructed speci
ally for tho purpose, and no ono thinkH of
sending them long distances to market. Tho
American apples, which now go to England
in largoquanties, Burpriso them considerably.
The Newton pippin was a few years ago the
favorito American npplo in tho English
market, but since the failure of that variety
its place lias been taken by tho Baldwin nnd
Rhode Island greening chiefly. Tho great
point with tho American exportation of
apples to England is not tho excellent con
dition In which they arrive there so much as
tho low- prico they can bo sold. A fine
American apple can generally undersell the
English homo article in tho Ixindon and
Liverpool markeia.
A SixouLAK Thee. In the island of Goa
near Bombay, there is a singular tree called
tho "sorrowful tree" because it only flour
ishes In tho night. At sunset no flowers are
seen, and yet, half an hour after, is qulto full
of them. Thoy yield a sweet perfiimo: but
the sun no sooner begins to shine than some
of them fall off, and thus It continues flower
ing in the night during the whole year.
A Maine girl left her clothing in an open
boat and hid herself, and when her parents
were crying and saying if they only had her
back they would obey her slightest wish, sho
appeared and said sho wanted to marry
