The Kansas Farmer contains some
g ml advice- to farrnurs, as follows:
Before you moi-tigo the homestead,
think twice. The speculation contem
plated may stem tempting; it mar
promise an almost certain large return,
but go slov on placing your homtead,
which shelters the wife ami little ones,
in the hands ot another for the hope of
gaining a few extra dollars in a trade,
or the purchase of more land. Watch
the friend and neighbor who has done
this thing, expecting to meet the prin
cipal and interest with the returns of
certain crops that did not yield as he
counted on ; see him with his haggard,
care-worn face, forcing a faint smile to
meet your friendly salutation. If you
couldlook through the alls and watch
the sleepless man as lie vaiidy tries 1o
shut out the trouble of uii overdue
mortgage: if you could see the worry
. aid anxious study, after the specula
tions failed upon which the mortgage
had been based; if you could 9ee the
troubles these visions of homeless little
ones brin;; if you could thoroughly j
realize that not one time in twenty are j
these mortgages anything else than a
curse to a man, day ami mgut, you
would let the new machinery, the ad
joining one hundred and sixty teres,
tiie new improvements, remain until
they could be paid for without a
mortgage. It all looks bright and fail
before the mortgage is made, and it
seems almo-t impossible to see a single
reason against placing the mortgage
on the faun, when it is so slight com
pared with the value of the farm. The
future returns are to be counted on
with so much certainty, and then the
cue, two, and three years' time, what
ever it may be, for its payment, looks
to be a long way off so far indeed,
that there is a confidence that the
amount can be made up, it is thought,
from a half a dozen sources.
After the loan is made, time rushes
along with increased speed, and there
arises difficulties in securing even the
annual interest and taxes that were not
contemplated. As the time draws
near for the payment of the principal,
everything seems tc conspire to make
the payment impossible. Everybody
wants every dollar due them ; nobody
pays who owes, the bottom falls out
ot the markets, down gees the price of
land, and everything else he has to
Bell. Instead of paying the principal,
a renewal is asked for, and property
is often sacrificed to meet even the in
terest, besides untold loss of time and
strength given to worry.
This is not all thai cornea with a
mortgage. Neighbors and friends be
gin to shake their Leads wisely, like
owls, and talk over the affairs and I
credit and character of the mortgaged
man, and although his integrity and ;
honesty may be without a blemish, his ;
failure to pay brings him under a
cloud, and his every actjs liable to
misconstruction. I improvements which ;
were to advance the interests of the
neighborhood Iwome, in the changed i
and altered circumstances of the man,
foolish and dishonest speculations, in
the light of his failure. Acquaintances ;
who would h ive applauded had he j
succeeded, siiL-cr with contempt at a
failure that may have almost reached '
the door of success. The small mort
gage of $500 or $1,000 has often been,
at the end of five years, with its accu
mulated inteiest, taxes, and consequent
losses, the load which has sunk the
farm and the farmer, and so broken
him in health, enterprise, and spirit
that he went to his premature grave a
poor man, giving to his family only
the inheritance of a broken, embittered
life. "What is true of mortgages on
farms is equally so in all other bust
ness callings, with this d inference, that
the number of failurts ami mortgaged
men are largely increased. All over
the land this curse and dreaded skele
ton of debt finds a place in three
fourths of all our homes. XV v say to
our readers, who aie largely farmers,
if there is no mortgage on the home
stead, keep it free.
SlOXS OF A PROSPEUOCS FARMER
"When you Bee a barn larger than his
bouse, it shows that he will hare large
profits and small alllictioiis. When

A. FOWL JlOXSTItOSITI.
Sir. Jolin Michels, a correspondent
of the Scientific American tells of an
interesting instance of ji strange maU
formation in the bead of a fowl which
has been exhibited alive at the New
York Aquniium, and as Professor Fr.
Stt-ngel, of Columbia College, vouches
for its authenticity, it may be presumed
to be a genuine specimen.
The illustration (given by the Sci
enfijic American) will convey an ex
cellent conception of the peculiarities
of the fowl in question, which is said
to have a monkey's face. The ordi
nary beak of a bird is absent, and the
nose and lips of an animal are fully
developed.
The nose appears to formed bv
i an extension of the comb, which at the
point of junction suddenly changes
from a bright red to a pale flesh-like
color; the lips, which are large and
protuding having the same hue.
IJoth lips aid nose are foimod of a
moderately hard cartilagcnous sub
stance, having a smooth surface, the
nostrils being very similar to those
observed in many species of monkeys.
The tongue is also modified in form,
rounded at the point, and having un
usual lower of lateral motion.
With the exceptions I have named,
or shown in the illustration, the general
appearance of the specimen is normal,
and indicative o( its being of the
Cochin China breed.
We have doubtless here an interest
ing secimen of one of those strongly
marked and abrupt deviations of
structure which occasionally occur
without any apparent cause.
Such cases are rare with birds in a
state of nature, but happen with greater
frequency with those which have be
come domesticated.
This monstrosity probably arose
from an arrest of development rather
than arrest of growth, and is doubtless
capable of leing transmitted. Breed
ers tnke advantage of such freaks of
nature to produce what is called a
variety.
Speaking generally, it is conceded
that changed conditions and external
influences produce variation from type,
and considerable effect upon organisms
of all kinds.
There are, however, instances in
which decided variation arises without
any apparent exciting cause, and Dar
win with his usual caution "provision
ally" calls it "spontaneous;" he at
tributes such variations, whether con
sisting of slight individual differences
or of more strongly marked deviations
of structure, as depending much more
on the constitution of the organism
than on the nature of the conditions to
which it has been subjected.
A Of.vf.va wntrhmaker has just
completed a "full-sized hunter," which
is said tn 1)0 the most complex and
wonderful piece of mechanism of the
kind ever produced in that citv.. On
one side i.s a dial with the ordinary
marking hour, minute, and second
hands together w ith a large independ
ent chronographic hand in the centre,
making the one-fifth of a second and
flying lee XII ; and to this dial cor- '
responds a repeating mechanism, strik
ing hours, quarters, ami minutes. If
the watch is turned over, a second dial
m perceived, having, besides the ordi
nary marking, a perpetual calender
months, dtys of the week, date and
places of the iroon and nlso a little
regulator for the timi.ig. This watch ;
can keep two ditfcrei.t time, for in-!
stance, Paris on one side and London !
o i the other, while there is only one
k.ioh on the stem for setting both dials
to lime without the addition of a
pusher on the rim of tiie case. Tin
mechanism for setting the hands to
time actuates only the finger of the
dial that is uppermost at the moment.
Cure of Diphtheria. A Bridge
port (Conn.) physician sends to the
Standard the following : "Our advice
to parents for this is mostly a dis
ease of childhood protect the feet,
legs and bodies of your children well,
by suitable clothing. line them
plain, substantial food, plenty of rest,
with fresh air and sunshine." Discard
late hours and pxc-itinsr amusements
and too hot rooms. If your child
takes cold keep it at home in a pleasantly-warmed
room, and admit sun
light freely. If with the cold there is
some sore throat, use simple remedies
to promote perspiration and a water
compress about the throat. In the
meantime keep a vigilant watch of the
throat, and upon the first appearance
ot white or gray patches send for your
physician. Do" not put it off to see if
it will get well itself. Twelve hours
may decide the fate of your child
prompt, thorough, efficient medication
at this stage of the disease will rarelv
fail of success ; later, the system may
be too depressed to respond to any
remedies."

rErTn of A MrnicAN Lakks There
is a mystery about t lie American hski?
Iiake Erie is onlv 60 to 70 feet kf;:
but Lake Ontario, which is V- ft
, deep, is 2:50 feet below the ti le hv.l
i of the ocean, or as low as must rsri:
! of the (Julf of St. Lawrence; and tl:e
bottoms of Lakes Huron, Michigan
and Superior, although the surface is
much higher, are all from their vsst
depths on a level vih the bottom of
Ontario. Now n i discharge
through the river Detroit, sfter allow
ing for the probable portion carried ttf
by evaporation, does not appear lf
nny means equal to the quantity of
water which the three :ipicr hike?
receive, it has been conjectured that a
subterranean rivci mnv run from Lake
Superior, by the Huron, to Lake On
tario. This conjecture i4s not imp1'
ble, and accounts for the singular fa?
that salmon and herring are caught n
all the lakes communicating with t-e
St. Lawrence, but no others. As to
Falls of Niagara mut have alwaj
existed, it would puzzle the natural
to say how these fish got into the upr
lakes without some subterranean river;
moreover any periodicsl obstruetio3
of the river would furnish a cot im
probable solution of the mysteries
