A mother lately requested her daugh tfi, who is just approaching woman hood, to give her beau a bint that she must cot sit up later than 10 o'clock. This the girl was reluctant to do, tut ber little brother threatened that unless she did h would open the parlor dorr and announce the maternal edict. The sister supposed that she had put a quiet us on her brother by reminding him cf his rlaying boo Key and forging bis mother's name to excuses from school to go skating, not forgetting to men tion the little riding whip bis mamma kept in her room. All this, however, was not enough to keep the youth from getting even with Sis's beau for net giving bim anything Christmas. The other evening be got an alarm clock with a bell as Icud as the gong on the "Brooklyn Jlrioge" bob and placed it under the sofa where bis sister and ber betrothed weie to do their spooning. The bunds wete pointed at 10. The unsuspecting girl heard tie tick, but took it to be her lover's Water bury. He was just tickling ber ear with a yarn about a horse his papa ws going to buy when the gong sounded. Tbere was a pause and then, as thou? h understanding the meaning, he grabbed bis bat and ceyer stopped running until he struck the door stoop, when he Hew. The boy had iced the steps.

Occasionally we may find a dog that is valuable to the owner, but nine out ten dogs came more trouble and darc aare than they are worth. And rp?c ially on farms where more or less stock is kept. There are but few dogs that can be trunt'.ed to drive stock. In a majority of cases if you attempt to drive hog?, cattle, sheep or horses with the dog Euch as is usuallv kept upon the farm, more damage will be caused and more extra trouble occasioned than the dogs are worth. How many times have you seen a farmer set bis dog cn slock to drive them out of a plice where ihey are not wanted, and then and there be obliged to take double the trouble it would have been to have driven them out without the dog and especially in calling bim off, leaving out entirely the damage done to the stock. No stock, whether kept for breeding or to fatten, can be worried without more or lew loss. Cows that axe driven home by a dog that barks at their heads aud then at their heels, tuns them over the pasture heating them up and working them into a high state it excitement, will nearly always show the effect of this treatment by giving a has quantity of mi;k. Fattening cattle tr bogs lose flesh and breeding stock abort simply because a dog is allowed to nor xy them unnecessarily. Sol All Trofit. There are some among our readers who, we fear, think farming an exceed ingly profitable business, and that any .one can make money at it. This is a great mistake, as many have found to their sorrow. We do not v ish to mis lead any one by giving results of crops obtained under peculiarly favorable cir cumstances. Farming, like every other calling, has its advantages and its dis advantages. When properly conducttd, it will yield a good living, and possib y aomething moro. Xo one should ex pect to get rich suddenly in this busi ness. It is a healthful, and in many respects independent and pleasant em ployment. and on worthy the attention of men of brains. It is not now true, if it ever was, that every dunce can get a better living lv farming than by any other occupation. We do cot wish to disourage those wbo are thinklog cf farming for a llfe-wcrk, nor, on tL other band, are we willing to glorify it so as to mislead. It is our desire to iro press upon all our farmer friends the Im portance of so conducting their business as to secure the very best results. Ub, What m t Kh. Will you td ttie warning.

Not ia great many years &eo In wai tbe practice to punt whole potatoes ia inch quantities at to form auite a large pcroentag-e ot tbe expected yield, wbicb has beea succeeded at tbe present time by tbe .opposite extreme of planting single) eyes, leaving ample room be tween tbe two methods for cultivators to experiment as to tbe amount of seed and tbe methods of .cultivation from wbicb tbe best results may be obtained. Owing to the short crop of last year, seed will be blgb, and it will be a good time to plant whole small potatoes, such as bave been given to tbe pigs in plenti ful years, and with many persons they bave all along been preferred to cut seeds." Tiaoting Irish and Scotch grown seeds is unsafe, as those' wbo bave experimented with tbem general ly represent then! as unsu'.ted - to our climate. c-v ' J j There is a general agreement on rows about th-ee and a half feet apart, with bill twelve inches apart in the rows, and one or two eyes in a bill, while at the same time occasional trials with whole seed bave yielded larger crops ; but so long as cut seed proves satisfac tory a majority will no donbt continue its use. It is of no ass to plaut pota toes on wet, teavy soil ; while tbe ground should not be excessively rich. It should be clean, dry and mellow, and generously fertilized. Where barn yard manure is nsed, which contains all the necessary elements. It should be well rottt-d and decomposed, as in Its green state it is liable to cause scabby pota toes ; where this is not plentiful some reliable) commercial article should take its place. - Another quite good plan is to spread tbe barn yard manure and plough It under, and at planting, drill the commercial kind moderately in the roars. This method is practiced in many sections and by it the tubers get tbe advantages of both kinds of fertil izers, first from tbe quicker action of the highly concentrated one, and later on from tbat of the barn yard, a mod erate application of both beibg thought better than tbe use of either one by It self. A successful potato grower in Union ccanfy. New Jersey, says bis practice for several yean has been to plant only one eye to a hill, cut from the butts of large otatoe8, not using tbe other end' with its more numerous eyes at all. He puts in the rows COO pounds of some well known brand of commercial ma nure to the acre, mixes it with tbe diil in tbe rows by drawing a chain through before dropping tbe seed, and using no other kind. lie bis always bad good crops, even including the present un favorable year, and believes be can profitably use a ton to tbe acre of com mercial fertilizers whenever tbe aver age price of potatoes In this section can be obtained for his crop. The potato bus tbe habit of degener ating to a degree tbat has caused tbe beat and favorite varieties of former tirwa to become obsolete, so that even their names are scarcely remembered, and some of tbe more recent ones, such as the Peach Blow and Eirly Tlose. are giving are to newer seeding varieties, to be themselves displaced hereafter in the same way. If we were dependent on tbe tubers alone for the propagation of tbe potato this would be an alarm ing fact, but fortunately re bave in tbe seed tbe ready means of rejuvenating tbe species, and tbe more than 5O0 new varieties, many of tbem surpassing tbe former excellencies of tbe parent stock, attest tbe success of potato -specialists in this direction. In states where tbe crop can be har vested in May or June, and sometimes as late as J uly, it is becoming some what common to raise a second crop by exposing tbe small potatoes to tbe air but not to tbe sun for a couple of weeks or longer, until they become dry and green in color. Tbeae ara then planted whole, and are aug in the fall for seeds tbe next year. This seed has not tbe same tendency to sprout through tbe winter from a waim cellar as tbe fully matured tubers. As tbe small ones used in tbe summer for tbe second planting are slow in germinating so soon atter being dug. they should be started to spronticg before being planted, by putting them into barrels set in a cool place and sprinkling them dally and covering tbe barrels with a damp cloth until they sbow signs of germinating, Flat and bill culture each has its advo cates ; farmers ara more competent to determine from their own experiments, which is best for tbeir own soils tbsn from any advice that can be given. For tbe same reason, no particular va rietles will be recommended for seed, except to say tbat for tbe main crop se lect tbe ones that from yonr owa ex perience and tbat of your neighbors you know to be well adapted to your soli and your market. This, however, is not to be understood as discouraging any one from testing in a moderate way tbe new varieties confidently recom mended by well known specialists, as it is only in this manner that the best can find their way Into general use. Invention ef Telegraph Operators. It Is a la'.ent signal transmitter called tbe teleserre. In all former means of communication of this kind the moment tbe signal was operated at one stand It was transmitted to the second or receiv ing stand. Such was tbe case with tbe telephone, and telegraph, and push but ton, and railway aignals, etc. This made It necessary that tbere should be some person or instrument at the le ceivlngiund to receive tbe signals at the instaut they were operated, or else tbe sending operator would have to wait an til tbe receiving operator was at tbe receiving atand. and also, tbe receiving operator would bave to leave whatever be was at to keep tbe operator at the sending stand from waiting. Now the principle of this latent signal Is tbat in stead of being transmitted Immediately, it remains locked np, set or stored at the receiving stand and subject to the control of tbe receiving operator, after it has been set or prepared by tbe send er. In o ber words, it Is a sort of com bination telegraph and phonograph. Decters aad rhirsass.

The bear was killed but not until it bad inflicted mortal wounds upon tbe man. At intervals ever since the ghost of the man and bear bave beea seen engaged in fierce combat. Two Ulrls. Tbere is a girl, and I love to think of ber and talk of ber, wbo comes in late when tbere is company, who wears a pretty little air of mingled responsibility and anxiety with her youth, whom the others seem to depend upon and look to for many comfortc She is tbe girl who helps mother. In ber own home she Is a blepsed little saint and comforter. She takes unfinished tasks from the tired stiff fingers tbat falter at their work ; ber strong young figure is a staff upon which tbe gray haired, white-faced mother leans and is rested. She helps mother with tbe spring sewing, with the week's mending, with a cheerful conversation and congenial compan ionship that some girls do not think worth while wasting on only mother. And when tbere comes a day when she must bend over the old worn out body of mother lying unoeedf ul In ber coffin, her rough bauds folded, ber long dis quiet merged in rest, something very sweet will be mingled with her loss, and tbe girl who helps mother will find a benediction of peace upon her head and in her heart. Tbe girl wbo works God bless ber 1 is another girl whom I know. She is brave and active. She Is not too proud to earn ber own living or ashamed to be caught at her daily task. She is studione and painstaking and patient. She smiles at you from behind counter or desk. There is a memory of her sewn into each silken gown. She is like a beautiful mountaineer already far up the hill, and tbe sight of her should be a fine inspiration for as all. It is an honor to know this girl to be worthy of her regard. Tier hand may be stained by factory grease or printer's ink. but it is an honest hand and a helping hand. It stays misfortune from many homes ; it is one shield tbat protects many a forlorn little family from tbe alsmUouae aud the asylum. fn OurPoputerBrsnd Will he fourth cl CofjbmatiOTiJjot always oefjad.

The -wholt, matter tbe cost of production, and in cot, mg the cost not only the food a;v to the animals but the ultimata t on tbe soil enter into the q-jesti" profit or loss. The main point, -jf. ia the amount of fertility the'wea'. tbe farm will be passing away. lean meat sells at a Libber pr;' market because it is of better qi' for the table ; but whether the d ence in price between fat and VnI " will compensate for the d:ZrTtt tbe elements required for their pry,5 tlofl depends oq tbe mode of prod. the meat and tbe manner of proca-i! the food. It is possible to pu, greater portion of the food and coa: it into beef or pork, securing n,, nure, and thereby realize a fair pi0 but the same may be done in i:oiv., animals tbat preponderate in fat. far as procuring the inateria's froffi soil is concerned it may be statin.. fat really costs nothing, though tter an expense incurred in scurir, tbrouzh tbe labor employed.

A etetr weighu.g 1. pounds so"d at an Increase of onljl cent per pound will more than psyfo the cost of the diffrrence due for :L more valuable elements, acd in Us: Banner the fertility ot the soil can tt miintained. Fat, however, is also vi u ible as a marketable material, and it therefore will pay the farmer to haw his animals fat and the meat well ltr.er persed with lean, so as to combine bo'.i weight and quality at the least cost. Leaks About the Farm. The man urn pife is exposed to tbe summer and winter rains, and a great part of its valuable constituents are lost. The barn has a poor roof, acd tie crops are injured after being housed. The barn is full of holes so that ttt stock is in an uncomfortable state. Feeding cattle eat a great deal tut do uot fatten, while milking cows yxA only half erhat they should. Stacking crops which should be shel tered fn the barn. Holding crops for better prices, for getting the loss of interest and tie losses from shrinkage, mice, insects, etc Farming so as to get half a crop, where a whole crop should have teea , produced. Interest and labor on the : half crop cost just as much as cm i whole crop. Cheap hired help. Farming more acres than can le at tended to. Watering the stock in a runnitz stream, thus losing a large amount of their droppings. From wida fence corners grown up with weeds. From being too busy to thiLk l-etore acting. All money dropped into tbe tii! u! tbe village tavern. All money spent for tobacco. Tbe total loss of the contents of the privy vault, as is common ou nio:t farms. Xot hiring enough to keep the woik ahead. Allowing the buildings to go without paint. Car Killing lierorethc War. People who travel nowadays iu Toll man sleepers and buffet cin can'c imagine what railroading us-d to be before tbe war in the west. Now tte percentage of deaths by accident on rail roads is very small. Tten a man look his life in his band when he made trip on the railroad. The rail then were known as strap rails, flak pieces ot iron 8pikei down to tbe woodtn tearts laid along tbe track. Every now arJ then a wheel of a car would tear ore end of a rail loose acd it would riy cp through the bottom cf the car sad t"ec smash its way through, killiug anvboJ.r It struck and breaking the woodwork of the car all to pieces. I was an express messenger in days on a road running between Cn.cia Bati and Indianapolis. One day cue of these rails broke through my car, struck my safe, and then came squirming and twisting like a snake at me. ltrifJW dodge ir, but it seemed to bJ a'! over the car iu a second, and it causbt my breeches, tearing them clear K cce leg. It it had struck my body 1 would have been nailed to the roof bv it, ks 11 went oh out that way. Sometime tbt-se broken rails threw the train eff the track, but generally the cars b..w-f J merrily along over the break, ami ttf passengers were bo accustomed to le;r.g shaken up that they didn't know It) at anything extraordinary bad bupi-i.ei until some one told them. lyIci-al and 1.1 vrr omrl"1'' I It not vortU tbe .mall piiee cf 75 "'nU to free yourself of every symptom of tllfs distressing complaints, if yodttink so call at our store ud net a bottle cf Sr.iloh's lalizer.
