W have seen b.izznuls on the plains
that swept through a man who was clad
in heavy woolens and fur overgarments
as thmiph he were ilre?sMl in tarletane.
We tiave known parties of buffalo hunt
ers, men used to hardships, and whose
stomachs were filled with buffalo mar
row, and who were wrapped in blankets
and robe?, to freeze to death in their
wagons, while endeavoring to escape
from the unendurable, icy blasts of an
Arctic blizzard. Cattle, weak and ill
fed on frost bitten grass, disappear be
fore these storms. They drift with the
wind. As thev pass by, the air is filled
with the sound of their mournful moan
ing. They wander staggeringly along
over the trackless plains, vainly endeav
oring to find water with which to quench
the intense thirst produced by exceed
ing cold weather. The water holes
are frozen. The weaker cattle drop out
of the herd. They lie down to die. The
snow drifts around them. They are
freezing to death, and still are consumed
bv a taging fever. The wolves attack
them as they lie on the frozen ground,
unable to rise, unable to protect them
selves. The cry of despair uttered by
the wretched animals when they realize
that the honible deathof being eaten by
camivorcns animals is their doom, is an
unearthly one. As the peculiar bellow
of an animal when it finds the scent of
the blood of one of its fellows upon the
ground exc'tes the herd with the infor
mation : "Here one of us has been slain,"
and renders them unmanageable, so does
the death cry of a feeble cow frighten
the drifting herd. They disappear down
the wind. The wolves close in on the
doomed animal. She struggles desper
ately to arise, but in vain. The hungry
wolves attack her. They tear her open.
They drag her entrails out and devour
hem before her ejes. She dies and the
wolves pick her bones and then gallop
after the herd.
True I'nine!S Principles.
Tt is as easy to be a rich man as a poor
one. Half the energy displayed in keep
ing ahead that is required to catch up
when behind, would save credit, give
more time to attend to business, and add
to the profit and reputation of those who
work for gain.
Honor your engagement. If you prom
ise to meet a man, or do a certain thing
at a certain moment, be ready at the
appointed time. If you go on business,
attend promptly to matters on hand,
and then go as promptly about your own
business.
Do not stop to tell stories in business
hours.
If you have a place of business, be
r und there when wanted. No man can
j-et rich by sitting around stores. Nev
er "fool" on business matters. Have
: rder, system, regularity, liberality and
f romptness. Do not meddle with busi
ness you know nothing of. Never buy
n article that you do not need, simply
localise it is cheap, and the man who
sells it will take it out in trade. Trade
is money. Strive to avoid harsh words
irul personalities. Do not kick every
-tone in your path ; more miles can be
t lade in a day by going steadily on than
uy stopping to kick. ray as you go. A
man of honor respects his word as he
dfs his bond. Aid, but never beg.
Help others when you can, but never
rive what you caunot afford simply be
cause it is fashionable. Learn to say
"no." No necessity for snapping it out
dog-fashion, but say it firmly and re
?lectfully. Have but few confidants,
and the fewer the better. Use your owd
brains rather than the brains of others.
Learn to think and act for yourself. I'.e
vigilant. Keep ahead rather than behind
the times.
Young man, cut this out, and if there
tie folly in the argument, let us know.
Intelligence ofaps.
The greatest display of wasp intelli
gence I ever saw was manifested by a
queen in early spring. A little earthen
bird-house was fastened under the eaves
iu the rear of the house, and she selected
this snug retreat as a fitting place to
rear. her future colony.
She had commenced work when a pair
of blue-biids disputed her right to the
house. The queen is necessarily absent
much of the time scraping weather-beaten
boards or posts to make her paier
cells, and during her absence the birds
were busily at work carrying material
for their nest. Hut soon I heard them
making a plaintive noise. They 3tood
on the edge of the roof, the female with
her mouth full of straw, and whenever
she attempted to go into the house the
was.) would dart toward her and drive
her back, iiut this state of affairs could
not last long. The queou must go on
with her r. ork. and no sooner was she
gone than the birds rcccmrneneed their
huUJing, and were fast filling up the
house. And njTv this wise queen went
to other queens w ho probably had not
yet commenctd work, as it was in April
and made them understand the dilem
ma sha was in. and five sisters came to
her aid and remained on the nutaide of
the little honse while she went to and
fro on ber journeys, and each time the
birds came near they would dart at
them. This continued until the birds
were driven from the field and obliged
to take another house. And now the
five queens disappeared, leaving their
sister in peaceful possession of the dis
puted property. - -
A Prediction Fulfilled.
The Emperor Napoleon III was by
nature very superstitious. The follow
ing anecdote was related in 1S31, long
years before the fulfillment of the predic
tion that it contains. The emperor one
day took it into his head to consult the
celebiated chiromancien, Desbarolles,
who died at a very advanced age. Des
barolles tola him some curious facta
respecting his character, his tastes and
his past life. "Now," quoth the empe
ror, "tell mo something about the fu
ture. Where shall my death take place
and by what malady shall I die ?" Des
barolles hesitated for a moment. "Sire,
you have asked me for a frank response,"
he iaid at length, "and I will reply to
you frankly. You are destined to breathe
your last on English soil, and you will
perish by the knife." Very curious
ly was the prediction fulfilled, although
the knife proved to be not that of an
kv. of

FARM UTES.
Keep colts growing by feeding a few
oats daily.
Horses will be grateful for a ruu in
the pasture on hot nights.
As soon as the raspberries and black
berries are gathered cut away the old
canes.
i'rof Tracy says that if cucumbers are
planted in drills, the loss from bugs will
not be felt.
The ends of Lima bean vines should
be pinched off when they reach the top
of the poles.
As soon as the ears have been taken
from the sweet corn cut up the stalks
and cure for the cow to eat In winter.
Beets, carrots, parsnips and other
root crops shonld be hoed or cultivated
until the growth of the leaves prevents.
Harness galls, sores of all kinds, by
bites, etc., we find are best treated
with carbolic soap (sheep dip) used as a
salve.
Melons often set more fruit than will
ripen. Cut off the surplus. Melons
ripen more evenly if turned over every
few days.
If any vegetables are sent to market,
wash, trim and bunch neatly ; they will
bring a much better price thau if sent
loose and In poor order.
It seems very strange indeed that so
many people stiil persist in using the
old-fashioned dash churn, when there
are eo many improved kinds.
Onions, as soon as the tops fall over
should be harvested. Tull and allow
them to cure for a few days iu the sun,
and store In a cool, dry place.
Cucumbers for pickles should be
watched every day, and all those of a
suitable size be gathered. Cut away all
that have grown too large, unless
wanted for seed.
Tine specimens of fruit to exhibit at
fairs may be obtained by severe thin
ning, giving one specimen all the nour
ishment that would have gone to half a
dozen or more.
The fruits of egg-plants are so heavy
that they will rest upon the ground and
decay; a wisp of straw, or a shingle or
other board, placed under the fruit will
prevent this.
Celery plants may yet be set out In a
well manured bed, or on ground man
ured for an earlier crop. Mark out
rows three feet apart and set the plants
six inches apart in the rows.
A man owning a farm has no business
working out, for his work at home is of
mere value to him than the pay which
he will receive for his work ; and if he
works out, his own work must be
neglected.
Oatesjarejfar cheaper, allt hlngs con
sidered, than bars. In the busy season
much valuable time is lost In taking
down and putting up bars, to say noth
ing of patlen :e exhausted by the opera
tion, especially if one is in a hurry.
Early potatoes, when dug, should not
be exposed to the sun ; it may be well
to try exposing those intended for seed
for a few days, untill they become thor
oughly greened, and store carefully un
til planting time, being careful not to
break the sprouts in handling them.
Insects must not now be neglected.
Tack strips of old carpet or other coarse
fabric around the trunk of apple trees ;
remove every week or ten days and
crush the "apple worm," larva of the
codling moth, that has taken shelter
under them. Tick up all windfalls, or
allow swine to do it.
Turnips will make a good crop, sown
the first week in August ; even Sweedes
do we'l on light, rich land, and the
small roots, as big a? a pint cup, are
more marketable than bigger ones.
After the rains soften the sward we
may plow for wheat, and in some sec
tions the practice of early seeding to
grass, without the intervention of a
giain ciop, is successfully followed.
Young horses frequently recover
quickly from ringbone, while old ones
aie sometimes treated without effect.
The proper course consists of rest and
cooling applications until the In
flammation is subdued ; then apply a
blister, such as 20 grains each of corro
sive sublimate and camphor, 10 drops of
hydrochloric acid and 1 ounce of tur
pentine ; watch the blister and wash off
when the effect is sufficient.
Guano water, says the Rural Xev
Yorker, is hated by mealy bugs, red
spiders, and by thrips, when applied to
house plants. The plants assume an
'ncreased thrift, and the insects chose
other localities. The old proportion of
a table-spoonful of guano to a gallon of
water Is applied in the following way:
Put in the guano, stir well and leave
the liquid a day or two to settle ; then
pour off the liquid, leaving carefully
the sediment. It will be safe to add as
much more water.
Early plowing is a great advantage to
laud intended for winter grain. Espec
ially if weedy or somewhat stiff ; re
peated working mellows tLe soil, makes
sure of a good catch of grasj seed and
defends against winter killing. In case
the season is dry and it generally is
over a great part of the couutry no
more favorable time can be selected for
digging drains with a view to improv
Irg swamps. If the actual reclaimirg
cannot now be pushed, the land may
easily be dried, so that it can be grubbed
and further ditched during the autumn
ana winter.
Early apples of showy kinds should be
carefully selected and sent to market in
neat packages. Half barrels, lined
with white paper, are the most attrac
tive package, though, on account of
their cheapness, bushel and half bushel
crates are used by many. The fruit
should be matured t. e., full grown
when gathered, but should not
have had time to mellow. When
an apple or pear is mature, it readily
parts from the tree ; when lifted to a
horizontal position the stem of the truit
will break away from the twig to which
it is attached, leaving a clean, well de
fined ecar. With fruit, maturity is a
uunt-i, stage, ana ripeness, or mellow- i
ness, another. Early fruit generally, if !
picked when mature, will be ripe and
mellow by the time It reaches the con-
surner. Fruit picked thus, and ripened I
on: tne tree, is vastly better in flavor,
juiciness and texture than if allowed to
r-rq:i n ,v.e tree -r.til "lev! rpe."
X 7t TVTO H TTTVQ doubtless tho host history

Russian history begins almoet in myth, proceeds into a wil

light only in comparatively recent times. It is studded with
inipoeingpersonnlitiesand darkened by hideous

An 1-:t iru;ite. frirril ff (i-n. IIauvi. k,
iu bpakiUrX oi the dead General's Jtf
Eoual peculiarities, said :
most tbiDs ibe General was iLe
soul of exactness, but in money matters
-
a a a a a. a ... -rr ,
he was langhahly thouchtlss. Tie fre
quentljf came over to Ihe city without a ;
cent in his pocket. On discovering his
moneyless condition a look of helpless ,
surprise would come over his face, and '
winking his eye in that peculiar manner
usual with him when he was puzzled,
he would say :
'"Well, I declare 1 1 haven't got a cent.
Will you lend me some money ?'
Of course the pocketbook oT. everyone
was open to the General, but ho would
accept only a quarter or at most half- ;
dollar, and go off up town as nappy as a :
school-boy. lie always gave the loose
change in his pocket to beggars or or-
gan grinders, and was lucky if he saved
enough to get him down town again. ,
One day he climbed up the stairs of the
23rd Street Elevated Station and began 1
to fumble in his pockets for money.
Five cents was all he could find, and ;
after winking at the nickle for a mo
ment be turned to the street and took I
the Broadway horse-car for Bowling
Green.
"In regard to letters and papers, how
ever, the general was wonderfully ex
act, lie always preserved every letter
he received and had it answered and
carefully Gled away. His daily mail
was enormous, and a begging letter
from an unknown person was promptly
answered and as carefully preserved as
one from a Cabinet Minister. lie was
the most punctilious about returning
salutes. Xo one. no matter who he
was, ever saluted the General without
getting a salute in return. On pleasant
days he was fond of walking about
Governor's Island and personally in
specting the work going on there. If in
his walk he met a party of strangers
wLo saluted him, he responded by court
eously lifting his hat and would fre
quently add, 'Glad to see you on the
Island.' "
A Trofligate King.
Of the personal character of Louis
XV. it is not necessary to say much.
Carlyle, in an oblique fashion, by hints
and innuendoes, gives his readers to un
derstand that the society of his court
was worthy of Home nnder the later emr
pire. The man who died of his debauch
eries is sufficiently condemned by his
own acts. In the then condition of
public morals, however, such things
might possibly have been condoned by
the nation, ban there been no other
ground for complaint. Unhappily, there
were other and more terrible reasons for
disaffection. The seven years' war had
ruined every interest in the country, and
in the rural districts the peasantry were
enduring all the horrors of famine. Some
sustained nature by eating tle grass of
the roadside and the herbs of ihe field,
and by devouring meats long deemed
unclean and even poisonous. Thousands
died of starvation and misery ; crime, as
a natural consequence, was rampant aod
the hangman constantly at work. Vet
in the midst of all this misery, the king
and his court abated no jot of their pre
tensions, but laid upon the wretched
peasantry ever new and heavier burdens.
Millions were lavished upon the profli
gate circle which surrounded the person
of the morarch, and hundreds of millions
were spent upon the creation of palace,
more magnificent than any that the civ
ilized world had seen. The financiers
of the day were at their wits' end. as
well they might be, when, with a griev
ously impoverished exchequer and with
a growing burden of debt, they were
called upon to provide for the king's ex
travagances. What these implied may
be judged by the facts that after all the
economies of St Geimain and Necker,
the household of Louis XV. consisted of
sixty thousand persons with incomes
varying from 0,000 to 500 of our
money ; that the value of the gold lace
upon the uniforms and liveries of the
Maison du Roi entailed an annual ex
penditure of at least i.80,000, and the
harem of the king was maintained at a
yearly cost of from 3,230,000 to (in
1773) 5,800,000.
The Case was Dismissed.
A young man had been arrested for
kissing a pretty girl and she was on the
witness stand.
"You say," said the attorney for the
defendant, "that the young man kissed
yon against your will ?
"Yes, he did, and he did it a dozen
times, too."
"Well, now, is it not true that you
also kissed him during the affray ?"'
Objected to ; objection overruled.
"Now, answer my question, " contin
ued the attorney. "Did you not kiss
the defendant a'so ?"
"Yes, I did," replied the witness in
dignantly, "but it was in self defense."
Case dismissed.
The Month or August.
The poet speaks of the month of Au
gust thus :
Ripened by the summer skies.
Kirn the froUlrn harvests rise :
While the loaned orrharrls Kleam
Redly 'neath the mellowing; fream.
August in the old Roman calendar,
was called Sextilis, it being then the
sixth month in the series,and consisted
of only twenty-nine days. Julius Cirsar,
in reforming the calendar, gave it thir
ty days, and Augustus, when he con
ferred on it his own name, took a day
from February and added it to August,
giving the month thirty-one days, that
it might not hav fewer days than July
which was named in honor of his illus
trious predecessor.
