Tha Names of Plants. Wo ofton wonder why thU or tint plant should have the nunc It boars. ihmo nrc Hovoral reasons tor it. Somo, as tho Fuohala, Dahlia and Magnolia, wviu arm iotintl nnti Drought 10 Jlillg mnd by three cotobr.itcti botanists whoso names wore Fnohs, D.ilil and Magnal. In fact, very many of tho plants in our croen-lioitstM aro named for their discoverers i others from tho supposed virtuo they possessed In for mtr times for hoallnK diseases. Wu have in our hodges tlio wound wort, nvcr-wort, self-tioal, clary and many others. Cl.trv iwoil In 1a m1l..,l n1.i. - -. j . . . ' - " ' ....

A particular kind oi grass or loader received tho namo of baint Foin, or holy hay 1 Tho fox-glovo calls to mind tho days when pcoplo believed in fairies and olvcs dancing by moonlight, for fox glovo is but a corruption of folk's glove; "Littlo Folks" being one of tho names given to tho fairies. Carrot means rod root; hawthorn is called so from a Duoh word meaning hedge-thorn, and is most suitable, as this trco is often used for hedges. Tho black thorn evidently gets its name from its black and thorny barkj tho strawberry, from onco being threaded on straws for sale, and tho gooseberry is called so from an old Saxon word which means "hairy." Some names aro corruptions of word?, as daisy from day's oyi and a very no ticeable ono is the Jerusalem Arti choke. Of courso it would seem that this vegetablo must como from tho East to have Buch a name, but tho faot le, that it comes from South America and has never been, as far as known, near Jerusalem 1 It is simply tho cor ruption of an Italian word, "Qirasolc," which means sun-turning, and it was given to this plant becauso it is ono of tho sun-flower tribo which are supposed always to turn round with the sun ! Somo plants, agaiii keep up old-fashioned ideas, which in theso moro en lightened days wo laugh at. Who would now boliovo that tho hawks brought to their young tho leaves of a certain plant, becauso tho juico would improvo their eyesight; and yet the name remains in hawkweed, a well known and handsome littlo yellow flower often Been in tho fields in sum mer. Another corruption is found in tho Dandelions tho tooth of tho lion wo should say if wo mado an English word of it. Tho long leaves aro much cut and supposed to resemblo tho teeth of tho king of beasts 1 One of tho names for tho clematis is "traveller's joy," and was given, it is said, from tho fact that growing near habitations it gave a thrill of joy to tho weary traveller, who felt on seeing it, that his journey was nearly ended. Tho littlo plant called lavender is Baid to havn obtained its name from tho Latin verb lavarc, to wash. Lav andula is the Latin name for the flow er. At first wo can see no connection between washing and the sweet-smelling plant bo well known to us all: but when we know that it was formerly in great use among washer-women, and that we now call "laundry" was once called a "laventor," wo see at onco tho reason for calling the plant "lavender," which certainly is as good a namo as any given in this short paper upon the )f plants. Watering Window Plants- Tho question is frequently asked, how, often and how much should win dow plants bo watered, and scarcely any one not even a florist, can tell you just what you waut to know. Some plants require moro water than others, and in rooms that are kept very warm moro watering is naturally required. In no pots, howEver, should tho water bo allowed to fill up tho saucers, or de cay or injury will bo sure to ensuo. Just when and how much water must bo applied, will como to bo known by experience. We would nik, who is moro successful in flower raising in rooms than those who havo been follow ing it for some time ? Tho knowledge comes naturallv by witnessing tho sprightliness of tho giowth of tho plant. When anything is wrong in tho atten tion bestowed, shown by drooping and languor, tho remedy is not long being sought for. Hence, oxperienoo only will teach ono how to raise window flowers or plants in the greatest per fection, and this mainly depends upon good rich soil and careful watering, in a moderately warm room, always re membering that it is better to water too little than too much. Improving Parm Houses. It is a source of great satisfaction to notice as wo havo within the .last half dozen years the improvement which has been making in the appearance of farm dwellings. It is being done in various ways and after various plans. It seems that every one, no matter what the exact measure of his means may be, is doing something in beauti fying bis home. It makes no differ ence what is the particular naturo of it, the aim is to add to its attractiveness, and in this effort it has tho support and ass.stanco of the wifo and daughters, whoso share in tho work is given free ly and ungrudgingly, and all equally enjoy tno happy result. How mucli, for instance, docs a neatlv fenced in front yard, filled with flowers of vari ous kinds, with trellises for climbing vines, add to tho general appearance t Every houso should havo a comforta. ble porch or piazza, which Is a protec tion against sun and rain, and in sum mer evenings, when tho entiro family is game red ttiero, it proves to no the best room in the houso I Every dwell ing, howover humble, should also havo a little parlor, nicely furnished, though it may take years to eompleto it, which should bo opened daily whether used or not. It is tho prido of the good wifo and daughters in increasing its neatness and beauty, as well as in re ceiving in It on special occasions their neighbors and mends. In a word, to inoreaso tho attractiveness of one's homo is a real labor of love, and it can bo done at such times when other du ties aro not pressing, whilo tho expense ot it is so trilling us not to be felt. Tho books which help you most aro those which make vou think most. Tho hardest way of learning is by easy reading. Lord Coleridge remarks that tho in dependence and prosperity of the mid dle classes is the chief glory of tho United States. "Ih you gwino to get an overcoat this winter Tasked a darkey of a com panion. "Well, I dun no how dat's gwino to bo," was tho reply ; "Iso done got my cyo on a coat, but do fel lah dat- owns it keeps his cyo ou it too."' ODD ITEMS. Thoro aro six brothers In Cat tor county, Ivy., who havo never used in toxieatini! Honors, tobacco, or been iruilty of nrofanitv. The oldest is 41 years old and tho youngest 22. "Can brutes talk t" was tho nuostloii under debate. "I should say they could my husband talks, ' was tho answer civen by a woman who owns no plush or fur mantle. Who was tho chlckon-hoaited kuave that said i "There's moro truth than poultry in this world Ho ought to Uuok his hoad tor being gooo onougii to hatch such a lie, Whon tho doctor advised Hrown to tako oaro of his health, Drown remark ed, with a feelbe smile, that really it was so poor that lie didn't think it was worth while taking caro ot it. "And what is this animal called t" asked tho teacher of tho class in natural history, as ho pointed to a picture of a slotli. "And tho cias all snouteu at onco : "A messenger boy 1" When a man's wife comes in and sees him, razor in baud, and with his face all lather, and asks him : "Aio you shaving V it's a provoking thing for him to answer : "iNo, I'm uiauking the stove," but it Is in human naturo to so reply.

Kineninir and nurifyinir wines and strong liquors is done by tho eleotrio current. By this process tho liquor is freed from all its poisonous essential oils, and the work of from three to six years is done in a few hours. Light clarets aro treated in threo to six hours; brandy requires sixty. Ciui'PEi) Hands. For seriously chapped hands try this : Scrapo a cake of brown Windsor soap until it is all as lino as powder ; mix it with an ounce of coloyno water an ounce of lemon juice. Stir this very thoroughly to gether, shapo it into cakes, let it harden and then uso it when you wash your bauds. An English practitioner cave a lady a mixturo of acctio acid to dissolvo a pin she had swallowed, and said it would do the work in a week. But tho medical authorities have sat down upon tho caso and find that such mix tures are non-operative. It was decided, moreover, that metallic bodies oecome quickly aud considerably corrodod by the action of tho juices in the alimen tary canal. Walt Whitman says that real Amer ican poetry, as well as any American literature in a high sense, is something yet to be. The aims and stress of our book-making, according to his estimate, are entirely adjusted like our society life to "certain lino drawn surface, imported ways and examples, having no deep root or hold in our soil." He hardly knows a volume that ii distinc tively American. Gen. Butler wrote the 'following on tho fly leaf of a Bible on retiring from itho olfico of Governer of Massachu setts : "When I came into the Execu tive chamber, a year ago, I could not find a copy of tho Holy Scriptures. I suppose each Governor' took his away with him. A tnend cavo mo this, l leave it as a needed transmittendum to my successor in ofiico, to bo read by him and his successors each in turn." Ono of tho natural curiosities of Herando County, Fla., is an immense live oak, situated near Brookville, which, seven feet Irom tho ground, measures thirty fivo and one-haif feet in circumference ; from this height to the top it has but two lare limbs spreading out, and at tho top measure eighty yards across. On one sido of this singular work of nature is a small orifice from which issues a continual stream of cold air, showing somo sub terranean connection that 'is unaffected by what is going on above tho surface of the ground. To Makk Lemon Candy. Tako a pound of white sugar aud a coffee-cup of water. Cook theso over a slow fire ; pour in a tablespoonful of hot vinegar. Bomove tho scum that rises. Try in cold water now and then to see if it will "thread" from the spoon ; when it will, flavor with lemon, aud pour on a platter, which is buttered slightly. I his may bo marked in sticks or squares. Fruits or nuts may bo stirred in just before tho candy is poured out of tho saucepan. Ilorehound and thorough- wort candy can bo mado of this bv boiling tho dried leaves in a littlo water and using in place of clear wa.er. Saiicb for Fish. Excellent sauce for fish is made bv nuttinc? ono cun of milk and ono cup of water on tho fire to heat. Whon it is hotBtir in a heap ing teaspoonful of flour that you have mixed with a littlo cold water, so that there aro lumps left in it. Beat and then strain threo eggs, and stir them in with two tablospoontuls ot butter, aud peper and salt to suit vour taste. Pour this over tho fish. If you chooso ybu can vary this in this way : Instead of putting tho eggs in tho Bauce, boil them ten minutes ; then remove tho shells and cut the eggs in slices, and lay them over the fish; then pour tho sauce over all. A Tir-Toi" Dessert, A rather cost ly but delightful dessert is made by blanching two ounces of sweet almonds and about teu bitter almonds (not ounces but almonds) and then pound ing them until thoy aro smooth. Add a littlo at a time one-third ot a pint of cold water. Stir it all and then let it settle. To ono pint of sweet milk add fivo ounces of granulated Bugar. Lot this boil slowly. When tho sugar is dissolved, stir in an ounce of gelatine which is entirely dissolved in a very littlo cold water. Lot this stand on tho stove two or threo minutes, thon re move from the fire, add a tablespoon ful of vanilla, a tcacupfulof cream, and tho almond water. Strain this all through a fine wire siove, and put it in mou'ds. Servo ioo cold, with cakes and chocolate or coffen.

Tho model of the flyiug machine with which Mr. Linfield, tho Euarlish inventor, expects to navigato the air at tho rate of sixty miles an hour, resem bles an elongated tricyclo with a cigar shaped body for tho engine, fuel and navigator. It is twenty feet long, fif teen feet wide, eight and one-half feet high and weighs 210 pounds. Tho lifting gear consists of two square frames about three feet deep, contain ing parallel sails like an open Vencitan blind, and so placed that tho air im pinges on their lower surfaces. Tho sourco of motion is a large wheel, with canvas-covcicd spokes, shaped liko tho screw of a Bteam vessel. Tho rudder kite-shaped, with tho point at tho extremity. Tho machine was lately attached to an cngiuo on tho Great Western Railroad, and when a speed of thirty-five miles was attained it roso and llcw through tho air, tho total for ward pull amounting to only twonty four pounds. Treadles aro attached to tho wheels so as to allow a gradual start. For power tho inventor is dis posed to rely more upon high pressure steam than upon electrioitv or com pressed air. N. Y. Tribnnt. A Western man having lost his wife, a sympathetic friend remarked upon his woe-begono appearance. "Well, I guess you would look thin, too," was tho melancholy rejoinder, "if you had to get up before daylight, make the fires, draw water, "split wood, and feed the cattle before breakfast. I tell you what it is, if I don't get somebody to fill poor, dear, sainted Maria's place, I shall bo resting by her side before many weeks. There is a sound reason why there aro bones in our meat and stones in our land. A world where everything was easy would be a nursery for ba bies, but not at all a fit placo for mon. Celery is not sweet untirit has felt a frost, and men don't como to their per fection till disappointment has dropped a half hundred weight or two on their. Joes. Who would know good horses if there were no heavy loads T A sailor fish, captured in tho Indian Ocean, was thirty tcet in length, with a dorsal fin ten ftet high, and, previous to its capture, the fin, rushing along at the surface, was taken for the sail of a boat. The force of tho blow that could bo given by this monster was estima ted to bu equal to the discharge of a 21-pound howitzer. Ice cream being, of a high tempera ture, impairs the teeth nnd predispos es thorn to decay. Young man cut this out and show it to your girl, if vou want to save money next summer. When a young man says his girl is "worth her weight in gold," he is not putting a very high valuation upon her unless she is a very heavv girl. At this rating 120 pounds of girl would be worth only $30,000. To thoroughly realizo tho colossal littleness of a man one must figure as a bridegroom at a church wedding cere mony. Cliim! Clothing!
