THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. y : Potatoes for Planting. ( Few operations on llto farm roclvu so littlo attention ns tlio selection mid keeping ' of potatoes for planting, yet thp success of tho crop depends very much on tlio condition of tlio potatoes planted. How often wo hear farmers' complain that their potatoes do not comu np well, or that tcy fail to inuko a vigorous growth, usually attributing it to tlio stale of the weather, when In many cases the trouble is with tho po tatoes planted. In selecting and keening potnlocsono important fact is usually entirely over looked, which is, that tlio potato is not tho seed, thercforo is moro liable to Do injured by keeping. Most of seeds arc covered with a hard Bitbslaiico which protects them from tho light, nud tho eudden changes of tho temperature, if kept in a dty place ; but tlio potato being simply n tuber, has no such protection, thercforo is very sensi tive to light and variations of tempera ture, cVrn though kept in a dry placo. Tho potato Is injured by being kept whero it is too hot, too cold, or too dry. If it is kept too hot it sprouts badiy, and thus loses its vitality, nover ngain pro ducing such vigorous stalks ns como from the first sprouts. If kept where it is so cold as to chill it, it is worse than keeping it wherolt is too warm, ns it does not lake much of n chill to prevent it from growing at all. Tlio farmer in selecting potatoes for planting should ever keep in mind that lie is dealing with tuber, and not with seed, therc foro sizo nnd form is not so important ns health. As tho potato when planted is simply tho renewal of tho old life, it carries with it many of tlio diseases which it may have gathered up, while a seed only carries with it tho constitutional weaknesses of tho parent. Thus the importance of selecting potatoes as freo as possiblo from disease, and of keep ing them whero thoy will lose nono of their vitality. Mass. 1'louhman. Fiiik-Fanoi-.k Manuiu:. A writer in the Country Gentleman says that firc-fanging is caused by tho heat of fermentation driving off tho moisture of tlio manure, nnd much of its valuo in other matters. It is always greatly injured in valuo and sometimes nearly worthless It is prevented by keeping the manure trodden solid with the feet of horse3 and cattle, by keeping it moist enough, or by supplying it with absorbents, such as turf or loam placed in alternate layers with tlio manure A good way is to draw it out anH spread it on the the land as fast as it accumulates. Twenty-nine Hens. Mr. Gerry Val entine, Ilammouton, N. J., forwarded tho following figures regarding his poul try experience tor tho year ending Nov. 1, to the American Institute Farmers' Club: "I havo twenty-nine hens which havo laid 4,301 eggs, and if my arith metic is right, they averaged twenty four cents a dozen, making 87.. 28 for eggs. Add 30 for chickens and you havoSH7.58. Tho cost of keeping I am not sure of, as the count has not been kept so exact, but it was about S55. The hens aro a mixture of several breeds, but nono pure. Tho Whito leg horn' and Brahma predominate. The feed has been corn and wheat screen ings, with some hog cheese and wheat middlings, pounded oyster shells, etc. "Home Sweet Home." . After lying in a foreign gravo for tnirty-ono years, the dust ot tlio anther of1 Home; Sweet Home," is brought homo at last, and the feeling with which the incident is regarded is well expressed by a poet of kindred impulso in a recent numuer or tuo iveeciy. JHr. JJucykiuck gives a very interesting sketch of Payno in tho Ctclopcedia of American Literature, taken a great part from a paper of his friend Theo dore S. Fay. Payne was born in New York in 1792, but his father went immediately afteward to Boston, whero at a very early age the boy's taSto and talent for literature and tlio theatro appeared. Returning to New York, ho was clerk in a counting-room and a student at Union College, always with the same tastes, until in his sixteenth year, in 1809, ho appeared at the old Park Theatro in New York as young Norval Uo was a successful actor, and by the advico of Cooke, Payne went to Lon don in 1813. In England and France, witli varying toitune, as actor, maim ger, and playwright, ho remained for nearly twenty years. His Jirutus was brought out by Kean with great Bticess in 1818. And whon Charles Kcmble beeamo manager of Convent Garden', and 'applied to Payno for aid, Payno offered him a collection of MSS. for 230. Tho 30 was tho sum asked for Clari; or the Maid of Milan Komblo bought them all. Payno turn cd Clari into an opera. MissM. Tree, the older sister of Ellen Tree, took tho chiet part, and sang, lor tho lirst tune, "Home, sweet Homo. ' The play was enormously successful. Miss Treo made "a great match,'' and every body made money except Payne, who lost not only tho 25 which was to havo been paid lor copywnght on the twentieth nigm but ho was not even complimented with a copy of his favorite sour. Ho wroto Charles II, another verv suo cessfnl play. But still fortune refused to smile, and in 1832 he carno home, Hero ho had various proiecls, but nothing prospered. Ho went as consul to Tunis, then returned, and vainly sought a more congenial place, finally going back to Tunis as consul, where ho died and was buried In April, 1852 There hi body rested duietlv, not in "neglected spot," but in n garden of roses and carnations and heliotrope and violets. There, too, ho was kindly re gnrded bv tho Europeans and tho na tlvo inhabitants. On tho 5th of Janu ary his coflin was ilkiMerred, and, as letter in tho Tribune btntes, it was car ried, attended by his old Arab draiio man and a few personal friends, to 'tho little rroiestant cliurcli where tlio ciian eel window is inscribed with his namo As tho coffin was brought in an En glishman at the organ softly played "SWcct Home," which an American lady sweetly sang, and then it was left alone through the night, watched by tho dragoman, and in tho morning it was placed upon a French steamer, which sailed for Marseilles. At Mar Bcilles it was transferred to a steamer 'for "New York.

There are, however, parents that intend to care lor their children, but, who through carelessness or tho urgency of other duties, permit them to become the innocent victims of disenso. Such par ents may bo cuiltlcss of intentional wrong, but tho disastrous results upon their children nre just as great, 1 heso are truths which must ho mani fest to every worthy parent and espeo- ally in u vicinity whero tho .unknown effects of tho atmosphere, the water and the general tendency to malaria aro so great. Tnero aro many families in this locality .who havo been called upon to mourn Untimely losses, even when tho greatest care was execrcised ; but tho experience of one only will bo given i It is that of tho lato W. O. 1 nomas. Iho children were all most promising, but for soino unexplained reason their health and strennth seem ed to gradually lessen uutit their friends feared they were the victims of consumption. Uno by one, tlicy sick ened and died until three had departed and. two of tho surviving brothers were also taken ill 1 heir names wero Hcrmon and Edward. Ilermon, how- over, seemed tho stronger of tho two; and, wuilo his younger brother was confined to tho house constantly, and to his bed much of tho time, Hcrmon was ablo to bo about but in so weak a condition that ho had no desiro to Eddie's symptoms were terrible! Ho found difficulty in retaining food won his stomach, was restless and ir ritable, and out of his head frequently. At various times threo different phys icians visited him : and each ono told is friends ho could not live. He finally cot so low that death was only considered a matter of a few' days. At that critical time his elder brother, aroused almost to the pitch of desper ation by tho threo deaths that had so recently occurred and tho other ono staring them in tho face, resolved to take tho caso into their own hands. They accordingly did so, and secured a emedy that was then being universal ly used, and began giving it to him. its eitect at hrst was slight, but any improvement was considered a good symptom. By degrees his strength returned j ho was ablo to eat with a relish, then walk about tho house ; and finally he regained complete health and strength. Tlio boy was so rejoiced over his recovery that, accompanied oy tno editor ot this paper, ho, went before Justice Charles it. Miller and made- oath to the facts of his sickness as abovo related, and that ho was re stored to perfect health by the use of Warner's Safe Kidnoy and Liver Cure. Now, Edward Thomas's parents, while they lived, undoudtedly, provided faithfully for tho wants of all their chil dren ; and yet the seeds of diseaso had lasen aeep root. Their care in ono direction had been counteracted by un known carelessness in another. Their lovo was sincere, but wholly misdirected liiey should have known that children are just as liable to kidney nud liver diseases as grown up people : nnd that tho fatality of Blight's diseaso of tho Kidneys is lust as great among little children ns with adults.

Bestoring laded Ink. A valuable discovery has been recent ly made, whereby tho faded ink on old parchments may uo so restored astoren der the writing perfectly legible. Tlio process consists in moistening tlio pa per with water and then passing over the lines in writing, a brush which has been wet in n solution of sulphide of ammonia.

Bob Bordello is known tho country Over ns the humorist of tho Burlington Hawkey e. Ho Is tho most successful of our lunny men. His books havo a constant and increasing sale. His sala ry from tho Jfawkeyc gives him a linndsomo income, nnd his littlo (ketch es command the best juices from tho magazines. In addition ho 1ms $150 to $250 a night wherever ho wants to take n lecturing tour of one or twenty weeks. His humor is delicate, true and libuudaut, ami he is an honor to tho lighter American letters because of his literary achievement. But better and more honorable than nil this is tliu story of his hearthstone. When he was a young man of twenty six ho was engaged to Miss Carno Garret, of Peoria, III. She was a frail and delicato girl, and one evening Bur detto was summoned to her bed-side with the message that she was dying. J.lltlc hopo wns entertained of her life when ho reached her. It was deter mined at tho wish of both ho nnd she that they should bo married, even if death should ntonco claim tho bride. Tho ceremony took placo in fifteen minutes, tho littlo lady being able to respond only by a motion of tho oyes ami a gentle pressure of thu hand. In spito of tho doctor's prediction she mi lled, and was finally well enough to movo to tho quiet nud cosy homo her husband had provided for her. But sho has been an invalid all her life. Moro than onco her life has been desprired of. Usually she has been confined to her room and unable to walk. Ono night at n theatre in Phil adelphia the writer saw a palo and earnest man making his way to a pri vato box, with a delicate, clinging wo man in his arms. Her girlish face was full of pathos that passes description but was wonderfully pretty. And strangely happy, too filled with con tent. Everybody made way for tho littlo lady, and her great, tender eyes seemed to send thanks to every gentle ipan who moved aside in courtesy. It was Bob Burdette and his invald wife. This is an index to his life.

She first discovered tho rich quality and tho spontaniety of Bob's humor and tho homely llavor that would carry it to tho heart as well as to tho intelligence of tho public. Im agine tho humorist reading the most laughable stories at tho bedside of his invalid wife. Ho tells himself of how she forced him to write his first lecture, in these word "Ono day when sho was lying help less, she said sho believed I could write a lecture and deliver it successfully, and so she sat mo down to writo that lecture, and from time to time I rebel led with tears and groans and prayers. I told her that I was too little, that I had no voice, and that I couldu t write a lecturo anyhow. Sho kept mo at it, and in due time wo had a lecture on our hands, 'Tho Iliso and Fall of tho Moustache. This was all right enough. But now to get the audience. 1 thought I would first trp it at Keokuk. If I delivered it first in Burlington, even though it wero tame, tamer, tamest, I thought they might put mo on tho book. But Keokuk hated Burlington, and I knew if it was flat tho Keokuk peoplo would say so. Mrs. Burdctto said, ns sho was responsible for that lecturo sho was going to hear it deliv ered, bo 1 carried her aboard tho cars. Wo went to Keokuk and the peoplo pronounced it good. t rom thatday ho has prospered where over his homely, insignificant little fig urc has been seen, A Curious Experiment- Tho easo with winch persons fall un der hallucinations ot special sense is il lustrated by M. Yung, in a recent com munication to tho Helvetic society ot sciences. The operator places eight cards upon a table m positions corres ponding to forehead, eye, ears, nose, mouth nnd chin ; ho pretends to "mag netize'' them and also some peisons in the company, and then goes out, while the magnetized person is required to toucli any ono card.

Tho observers aro sur prised, of course. Ono of them is nsk cd to go out and repeat the experiment. It is assumed that a certain card has been touched. Passing his band over the cards, he indicates, in nine cases out of ten, a particular card as giving him a shock ; nnd if tlio company be instructed to support Ins idea ot that be ing tho "correct card, ' ho is continued in bis illusion, which may be successful ly repeated. Ut eighty-hvo persons tried, M. Yung found only niuo who refused to indicated a card, not having experienced any sensation announced nnd twenty-three described some dittei ent sensation.

In tho last ten days of tlio session Congress' directed the publication of matter which will cost, for printing and binding alone, 219,000, nnd nn additional appropriation was made therefor.
