Minnie's Lovcrn.
"For my iiart," salil Aunt Sylvin,
'I
don't nrimlru tlio young limn."
Minnio Dnrtford wns n lin.cl-ciyt'il,
rosc-ohcckcd llttlo witch, willi perfect
ly nrohcd oyelirowp, and a mouth ni
fresh as tlie fieslicst rosebud in nil tlie
garden bowers, nnd her wliito dreaj,
shining fnlntly through tlio BUttimcr
twilight, seemed to float round her like
a cloud, m slio Hat there watching the
statu that glimmered indistinctly
through tho purplo deeps of tho sky,
nnd thinking how very unreasonable
Aunt Sylvia was.
"No' said tho elder lady, jerking
her knitting-necdlo Into its sheath with
nn emphasis, "I do not fanuy Herbert
Arundel."
"But now that ho is here, aunt, wo
must treat him witli courtesy."
"I've- no objection in life to treat him
with courtesy, child j but I'vo a sort of
an idea that ho would like you to treat
him with something warmer nnd moro
enthusiastic.''
How thankful Minnio Dartford was
at that moment to the friendly dusk
which veiled tho crimson blushes that
suffused brow and cheek at Aunt Syl
via'rt cleverly nimed shot.
Had it, then, como to that f Win
she, indeed, learning to lovo Herbert
Arundel 1 And a thrill of strange, in
expressible happiness eddied through
her heart as her Inmost consciousness
mutely answered: "Yes."
Alas 1 poor Clarenco Lee 1 Tlio pa
tient years of dovotion, during which
he had waited patiently for tlio rose
bud of Minnie Darlfont's beauty to ex
pand into tho perfect blossom of wo
manhood how lightly they weighed
in tho balance against this Southern
stranger's easy address and dashing
fascination of manner. Tho way of tho
world unalterable, yet how strango 1
Aunt Sylvia remonstrated no fur
ther ; she saw quito plainly that it
would bo of no use. Minnio like many
another spoiled child and petted beau
ty, was determined to have her own
way.
Meanwhilo Minnie, with her thoughts
and fancies drifting sweetly away upon
tho fathomless sea of a young girl's
reverie, sat at the window, still think
ing of one personage Herbert Arun
del.
"Aunt Sylvia is foolishly prciudic
ed," she thought. "He is as true and
noblo as ho is handsome, and none but
the carping and envious could pick a
haw in bis character or demeanor.
How graceful ho looked on tho 'croquet
ground yesterday and how woll ho
rides 1"
Minnio's mind was absorbed in these
fancies when a knock came to tho door,
nnd tho old housekeeper put her' head
into ttio room.
"Mies Minnie, the shoots is ready for
tho linen closol I
"Tho sheets 1" Minnio shrugged her
shoulders a littlo impatiently. "Why
couldn't old Peggy have waited? Very
woll, l eggy, I'll seo to that present
lyl"
"But they ought to be put away now,
miss, ' persisted tho obdurate old ser
vant "I'vo strewed sprigs of lavan
dor and dried roso lcave3 between all
tho iolds, and if you II pleaso to put
them on tuo shelves now '
Minnio roso with a scarcely suppress
ed sigh. She knew Peggy too well to
hope for any peace uutil her behests
were fulfilled.-
-Tho heap of snowy linen lay on the
nan tame, white and iragrant through
the toils of Poggy's skilled digits, and
tauiug a pile on her arm lUinuic JJart
ford went to tho linen closet, n small
room opening out on that allotted to
tho present occupation of Clarenco Lee
and Mr. Herbert Arundel.
She glanced timidly in before she
entered, tp mako sure that neither of
her brother's guests wero in the apart
ment, and then hurried through to
place tho linen in its nook.
Sho had scarcely reached up to de
posit tho piles on tho high shelf above
her head wheu voices and footsteps fell
on her ear, and with palpitating heart
Minnio felt that she was like a caged
bird, among tho shelves laden with
sheets and pillowcases. Mr. Arundel
had entered his room tho spicy odorof
his cigar already proclaimed tho fact to
her olfactories, even wero thero no other
witnesses and with him a stranger had
been ushered in.
Minnie stood quito still, hoping that
their incursion was but for a moment
and their withdrawal would presently
leave her freo to beat a retreat. The
doorot tho closet was partially drawn
to, and sho was at least euro of not be
ing discovered. Tho color roso to her
cheek at tho idea of thus involuntarily
playing tho part of ovesdropper ; but
what else could sho dot
"Sit down, Lowis," cried Mr. Arun
del, drawing forward an easy-chair ;
n "mako yourself at homo. Your cigar
lBn t out, l nopeT
'No, it's all right." said tho strango
voice. "I eay, old fellow, speaking of
making of one's self at home, it strikes
mo that you aro practicing tho tiling
yourself rather extensively hero!"
Arundel laughed.
"I am at home, he said," complacont
ly. "Why, blcts your heart alive, Low
is( tho good people hero think I'm tho
greatest man alive."
"They'll find their mistako after a
while.:1
"Not until I've made a sure thing of
it," answered Arundel.
"What do you meant"
"I mean that I'm going to marry tho
girl."
"What, tho little heiress V echoed
tho man whom Aruudel had called
Lewis. ,
nitr it r tit
"vycii, yes, it you cnoosoiocaii ner
so. No great heiress after all : but I
daro nay I can find tiso for her 825,000.
And, to crown all, she's desperately in
love" with rao."
Tho other laughed hoarsely a sneer
ing" sound which mado tho blood boil
indignantly in Minnio Dartford's
veins.
"lou always did play tho dnco
among tho girls," ho enid. "So sho's in
lovo with you, eh t"
"Yes. It's quito amusing to watch
tho progress ot ner infatuation, an
swered Arundel. "I haven't proposed
yet, sirnpiy Dconuso i don t want to pro
cipitato tho moment. Bless you! eho'd
jump into my arm to-morrow if 1 wero
,to pop tho question I '
"Sho'd junip out again quick enough
if sho know you half as well as 1 do I"
jeered tho other.
"But she don't, you 6eo 1" said Arnn
dol. "Whero ignoranco is bliss 'tis
folly to bo wise' you know tho old
saying. And the best of it is that Pvo
somehow contrived to cut out nnother
lover, who has been hanging around
after her ever sinco sho was a child in
bib nprons a man whom any girl
ought to bo proud to attract Claronco
Leo."
"She a fool 1" was tho muttored
comment.
"(Jranted,'' said Aruulol, lightly i
"but thou you know all women aro
fools."
"Not nlways, Mr, Arundel," answer
ed a calm, voice i and Minnio Dartford
stood before, hi in, her wliito dress
shimmering liko tho robes of n phan
torn, in tho semi darkne.s, "for nt least"
the lesson of their folly may loach them
to Do wiser in time. '
"Miss Dartford," echoed Herbert
Arundel, dronping his cigar, as ho
started, aghast, to his feet while his
ionipnnlon looked on as if ho would
very much like to disappear thiougli
tho crackit of tho door.
"I havo unwillingly been compelled
to listen to your edifying conversation
of the last few minutes." Minnio went
relentlessly on, "and yourself can easily
iniagino how completely I havo been
onlightoncd thereby, I suppose I onjjht
to bo angry with you t but I can only
leel tliatiktnl lor thu late which has
been averted from me, Good evening,
Mr. Arundel, and good by."
And with n low inclination ot hot
head, Miss Dartford passed fiom thu
room, nnd Herbert Arundel never saw
her moro 1
He left town tho self-samo evening,
carrying with him tho interesting eon
sciousnoKS that ho had ovCr-played
his own part and thwarted his own
ilnns.
And Clarcncu hover know what had
opened the eyes of his capricious llttlo
charmer. 11') onlv rejoiced that alio
had once moro taken him into favor.
"Well, said Aunt Sylvia, on tho
morning of thu day which Minnie Dart

Agricultural Items.
A Maine farmer says his oxpenenco ;
has convinced him that ten good gratlo
Merino sheep can ho kept on tho samo
lecd that would keep ono cow and
nro more profitable.
To prevent sows ftom crushing their
young nail a board about ono foot wido

little pigs can run under it to get out
of the way.
An ox will consumo two per cent, of
his weight of hay per day to maintain
his condition. If put to modcrato lab
or, an increase of this quantity to threo
per cent, will cnablohim to porlorm his
work and maintain his flesh. If ho is
to bo fattened, ho requires about four
and a half per cent, of his weight daily
in nutritious food.
Every month is a harvest season for
somo section of tho world, though the
harvest does not always consist of hay
or grain. Thero is a fruit harvest as
well as a wheat, harvest, and harvests
also of other products.
llocky forest land had beUer bo kept
in woods until tho rest of tho farm is
in tho highest possiblo stato of culti
vation. Thero aro millions of poor
land partly cultivated off. But when
farmers havo such land, think of sheep.
They will mako it valuable if anything
can. Also, think of the dogs, and
havo them exterminated, as far us pos
sible. In 1879 tho average of tho winter
wheat crop was 18)1 bushels per acre.
With the same average this year it will
yield a total of 3 13,000,000 bushels.
Last year it was 420,000,000. The
corn crop was 1,1)51,000,000 bushels.
This country does not need ns many
roots for stock as European countries

Tho stomach of tho horse is compa
ratively small, holding about threo gal
lons, whilst the ox possesses no less
than four stomachs, tho first of which
is larger than that ol tho horse. This
alTouls us a very important lesson at
tho commencement ; that while the ox.
is so constructed us to uotuuiuo large
quantities of food at a meal tho horse,
on tho contrary, requires a moro moder
ate quantity of amoio nutritious'natuie,
and to be fed oftener.
Wo have, says the American Agri
culturist, found milk one of tho best
kinds of diet for young chickens, soon
after thoy como from the nest, to pro
mote their health and rapid growth.
Indian meal, ground coarse, and scald
ed with milk, is a perfect feed for them,
As they grow older grass, cabbago or
onions may bo chopped fine and added
to tho daily rations. A portion of tho
milk on dairy farms, usually going to
tho pig trough, may bo diverted to tho
chicken coop with great advantage.
Eggs aro worth twenty-fivo cents a
dozen and poultry twenty cents a

A Chapter on Corns,
Nearly everybody in this country has
corns, young, old, high, low, rich, poor;
and thero appears to bo a special crop
of them at this season of thu year.
This corn ailment is assuming a serious
aspect ns tho population is coming to
be full of cripples. How many men
could do a day's march, say of twenty-
t! 1 1 . 1
uvo mues, 111 1110 snocs tnoy wear anu
not be completely used up at tho cud
of tho journey ! How is it that men
and women may exorcise good judg
ment in overthing else nnd be altogeth
er astray in buyiug a pair of shoes ?
What is to blame for all these corns
and the human misery they entail 1
Tho responsibility is equally divided
between the shoemaker nnd tho wear
er. Corns aro caused by friction not
direct and immediate but gradual ; and
hero it Is that leather of a light texture
causes corns. When .a mau buys a
pair of boots or shoos of light material,
no matter how disproportionate they
are, how tioht, tho pressure at the time
is not sufficient to cause any direct un
easiness, owing to tho pliability of tho
leather. Tho foot fits tho shoo, and
not tho shoo tho foot. After a woek
or two of wearing tho foot has como
in contact with tho several sinuosities
of tho shoes tho corn has been grow
ing graduallly and tho cuticles be
come thickened, and circulation is im
peded and hence tho pain. Cutting
thu hard and thickened cuticle restores
tha circulation, and gives relief for tho
tirno only to bo aggravated again by
friction with sonic suifaec. Heavy
leather is tho best remedy for corns
and for this reason, having a greater
power of resistance, the woarerjs at
onco mado nwaro of tho pressure on
any particular part of tho font, and ho
instinctively throws thorn off, when a
finer texturo would delude him into
wearing, them until tho gentlo pressure
produces a corn. Firm, pliable leather,
with sufficient too room, nnd to know
1 "whero tho shoo pinches," is thu paua

"It must lutvo been a ttnible exper

very earnestly, "it wasn't near as bad
