TO KNOWN AS A J MAKE IT Mr end Farm 5etes. The farmer's wealth la not that which be receives and expends every season, sor can be estimate his yearly gains with any degree of certainly, as ha may apply to bis soil that which may require several seasons to give an ade quate retain. How many farmers pause to consider the Increased wealth of the land itself, or the possible amount in value of crops that may be taken from the laud for years without any ad dition to the soil in the shape of ma nures or fertilizers It Very few. Yet there are many farmers who are com pelted to struggle under difirolties, and who barely make both er,ds meet" from the beginning of the year to its finish, but who are slowly and surely becoming wealthy, though this gradual increase may not be immediately noticed. It is an old mxlm that the safest in vestment is In lard, for the reason that land cannot be 'stolen or destroyed, re maining permanently as deposited wealth until it pannes into other bands. But the land is also the receptacle for more wealth and locks op within Itself valuable material that may at some time be converted into marketable products. Every farmer who grows crops, raises stock, aims to Improve his farm, will. In the face of all obstacles, store up In the soil, as plant food, wealth that can not be utilized immediately, but which in the futore will place him in a more independent position and offer fourfold that which it received by changing the unsalable commodity of the farm into forms by which it becomes articles of demand. The fertility of the soil is the treasure or the farmer buried un'.tl he digs for it at the proper time. Though nature is at work sb ' requires materials, and the farmer simply util izes the forces at his command to change the material, and place them in posi tions of advantage. The source of the farmers' increase is the manure. The manure heap is a real factory, a chemic al laboratory. In which a portion or the products of the farm are worked over and changed and the more perfect the work performed in this labratory the greater the aid and assistance afforded the crops during the growibg season. The farmer every year becomes wealth ier because he is converting waste ma terial into plant food, which is addd to the soil, and whether droughts entail failure, or prices fall, bis mine or wealth remains, which ie itself a thing of value over and anova that which he may derive from the sales of his pro duce in market. Lire In "Malberry Bend." It is upou '-The Bend," in Mulbejry street. New York, that this Italian blight has fallen chkfly. It is here the sanitary policeman locates the bulk of his Four Hundred, and the reformer gives, up the task n despair. Where Mulberry street crooks like an elbow, within hail of the old depravity of the Five lints,are the miserable homes of the ragpickers. The law of kaleidoscopic change that ruVs life in the lower strata of tnat ciy long since put the swarthy, stunted emigrant from south ern I'aly in exclusive pubsesaion of this field, just as his black-eyed boy has mis nopolr-d the boot-b.'ack's trade, and the Chinam n the laundry. Here Is the back alley in its foulest development naturally enougb, for there is scarce ly a lot that baa not two, three or four tenements upon it, swarming with unwholesome crowds. What squalor and degradation inhabit these dens the health offi5ers know. Through the long summer days their carta patrol The Bnd, scattering disinfectants in streets aud lanes, in silks and cellars, and hid den hovels where the tramp burrows. From miduight till far into the small hours of the morning tbe policeman's thundering rap on closed doors is heard, with bis stern command, 'Apri port 1" on his rounds gathering evidence of il legal overcrowding. The doors are oenea unwillingly enongb bat the or der means business atd the tenant knows it even it he understands no word of English. In a room not thirteen feet either way slept two men and women, two or three in bunks set in a sort of alcove, tbe rest on the floor. A kero sene lamp burned dimly in the fearful atmosphere, probably to gnide other and la'.er arrivals to their "beds,'- for 15 was only just past midnight. A bab's fretful wail came from ao adjoining hall-room, where, in the sera! darkness three recumbent figures could be made out. Uhat Trod aces Death. Some one says that few men die of aeje. A'most all persons die of dissa pointment, personal, mental er bodily toil or accident. The passions kill men sometimes even suddenly. Tbe com mon expression "chocked with pas sion," hag little exageration hi it, for even though not suddenly fatal, strong passions shorten life. Strong bodied men often die young weak men live longer than the strong, for tbe stroLg ose their strength and tbe weak have none to use. The latter take care of themselves, tbe former do not. as it is with the body, so it is with the mind and temper. Tbe strong are apt to break, or, like tbe candle, run ; tbe weak barn oat. The inferior animals, which live temperate lives, have nearly their pre scribed term of years. The borse lives twenty-five years, the ox fifteen or twenty, the bog ten or twelve, tbe ralbit eight, the guinea pig six or seven. Tbe numbers all beat proportion to tbe time tbe anima. takes to grow its full size. - But man, of all animals, is one that seldom comes ao to ihe average. Ileonght to live a hundred ytars, ac cording to tbe physiological law, for five times twenty are 100 ; but, instead of that, he scarcely reaches an average of four times tbe growing period. Tbe reason is obvious man is not only the meat irregular aLd most in temperate, but the most laborious and hard woiking of all animals, acd there Is reaaon to believe, though we cannot tell what n animrd secretly feels, that more than any other animal, man cherishes wrath to keep i; warm and consumes himself with tbe fire of his o n rt flections.

Tbe atrarjge case of William Jackson, whoee breath was iLflunmable, exclrcd a (rreat deal of interest in medical and acieotiflc circles two years ago. At that time, says a prominent writer, Mr. Jackson was a photographer io Fay etleil!e, X. Y. lloie recently be baa been engaged lu this atme business in Mlddlebury, Vt. One evenicg a, ten o'clock be !igbte1 a lamp with a match. Then with a breath of air sought to 'blow one tbe match." losiantly his breath took fire with a slight explosion. Jackson gasped with flight, and tbe flame of tbe combustible air entered hW month and bliatf red bis toDKU. IlM lips aDd face also sufiered, arid his mus tache, eyebrows and the hair above his eyebrow were singed to a marked de gree. The man was at first badly frgbt ened. and bis wife, wtn was a witness of occmrence, screamed with alarm. After waiting an hour to see if '.here would be a repetition of the phenome non, Jackson went to bed. The next medical journals. The truth of the reports was at first qnestioned on all sides, but, after' tbe matter was tbor. oroughly investigated, t was admitted that fcucn a case might possibly ocenr. Then in 1874 it was learned t hat an European medical journal had published a report of a simitar pbenomeoon, and muBty scientific tomes were searched, aod one item discoyered that substan tiated the present. Then Jackson discovered that be could reproduce the pbenonmenon almost at will, bnt as the experiment sometimes resulted in onplt asant burns be would exhibit bis peculiarity only oc special occasions. At last medical men figured out a theory to explain the freuk. They came to the conclusion that It was not tbe breath fmm JncksoD'a lungs, bat air belched from bis stomach, that would take fire. The pitient bad never been a drinking man, so tbe gas was not rendered in flammable by tbe presence of alcoholic vapor, but for years be bad suffered from a peculiar kind of dyspepsia. Dr. William Manlius Smith, professor of chemistry iu tbe Syracuse Medical College, after careful study can ctodvd that food in Jackson's stomach underwent a bu'yric acid fermentation, one of the products of which was car bureted hydrogen, sometimes called marsh gas," tbe "firedamp" of mines. Jiickson understood a little abont chem istry and one dy be and tbe w Iter wect to an old, stagnant pond and col lided a bottle full of 'maish gas." When lighted it exploded, and burned precisely as did Jackson'd breath. Tbe gas was coliected by bonding tbe bottle undT the surface of tbe pond, stirring op the mod in tbe rot torn of tbe pond, and catcbitig in the bottle the bubbles of gas us they aros.

He is a fine, m.mly little fellow. Germany is a very military country, and the Empeior William is such a thorough soldier that strict cavitary discipline ) tbe oider of tbe day in tbe nurseries of bis little people. As soon as petticoats are left off the tiny boys are dreesed io baby uniforms, and tbe young Crown 1'rince looks quite like a little soldier. When their father visits them in their own quarters, as I suppose I ought to call such a military nursery, tbe Crown Prince commands bis military brothers to "fall in." Then Frederick and Al bert, who are scarcely more tban babies, fall in." Little Trince Albert is such a mite that be i not able to keep bid position for long and be soon tiots away to bis curse's side. But tbe Crowu Prince aud Prince Frederick stand stiff and starched like real soldiers till their father returns their salute in proper fashion. When tbe little Crown Prince was six yars old he was given a bedroom to himself, instead of sleeping in tbe dun sery with tbe others. He was very pleased, and said : "Oh, that ia nice ; now I need not be with tbe children any more." In the eummer of 18S3 all fire boys bad a charming holiday with tbeir mother at tbe beautiful castle of Ober hof, in tbe forest of Thuringia. Their father was away. A little fort waa built for tbem in tbe corner of tbe gar dens, with a tent and two small cannon. Tbe three eldest, dressed la officers' uniforms, paraded-in front of tbe fort. Then while the Crown Prince beat tbe drum, an old soldier showed tbe other two bow to attack and defend the foit. Little Prince A-ogastus Willtam, who was only a year aad a half, was drecsed in white and wore a liny helmet. He looked on and clapped bis hands. Iu Germany every buy, whether be is tbe son of tbe Emperor or of a peasant, has some day to oe a soldier. The Emperor is very fond of his five boys. Almost his first queslMS. is, when be returns home. "How are tbe boys ?" A Stoie fused as a Bed. In the north of China tbe climate ia quite cold, and there are no stoves or fire-placea in tha wayside inns. Io some ot tbe general rroma are small charcoal brajiers, but tbe bedroom, which are very scantily furnished, con tain neither stove nor bed. In their placa is a brick platform long enough for a man to stretch nims-lf at full 'engtb upon and raided a foot or two from tbe fl or, wi b an opening in tbe aide. Into thta aperture the aeivant pushes a pan of burning cotls, and when tbe bricks are thoroughly bea'ed the traveler rpreadsoat upon tbem tbe bed ding neb brought with him, aod lies down to rest oa bio store. 1 Crf a a -e.rLal J Organ and Piano Co.
