I HEARD a story rece tly which illus trates capitally certain methods of dis. cipline made use of by short-sighted mothers, and the effects of the same upon the morals and manners of chil- dren. A little boy had been punished for lying by being confined in his room, tied to a bed and fed on bread and water for a whole day. The enormity of his offense was therefore deeply im- pressed upon his mind, much to the satiefaction of his mother, Shortly af- terwards the boy entered the parlor where his mother was entertaining a room full of guests, and asked permis- sion in the whining tone that so many children early learn is effective to go to a neighbor's. “No,” firmly replied the mother; “you cannot go.” “Oh, mother why can’t I go?” “Because I do not wish it ; so sit still and do not ask me again ?” ““Yes—Dbut mother, can’t I go?” By this time the guests began to feel an awkward uneasiness, which the mother was not slow to appreciate, The irrepressible boy kept up his runmng fire of appeals, varying the whining ac- cent with each request, until the mother finally said : “Well, well, run along, and don’t bother so,” Having gained his point, the young diplomatist safely reached the door, and then turned and sad : “Ob, mother, what a thundering big lie you told, didn't you ?” aa A GREAT head : In the elegant draw- ing room of a Clncinnati pork mer- chant’s mansion a large company was assembled. All the tuxury that wealth could demand contributed to the grati- fication of the guests, Upon a blue satin divan the pork merchant's daugh- ter, gorgeous in silks and pearls and diamonds was conversing with a friend. Preseutly her father approached und said : “Pauline, [ want to say a word to you.” %he girl arose and accom- panied her parent to the seclusion of a bay window. ‘‘Pauline,” began the old man, ‘‘there’s a couple of Cleveland dudes in the dining room having a hot talk about Copermicas. 1 was afraid they were going to ask me to decide the dispute, so I made some exense to get out and come to youn. Now tell me, who was Copernicus, anyhow?” *Q, father,” exclaimed Pauline, ‘‘how could you have been so ignorant ? Why, any school boy knows who Copernicus was, He sailed from Palos, Spain, on the 3d of Avgust, 1492, and discovered Amer- ica the following October,” The ven- erable purveyor of swine gazed exult- ingly at his daughter a moment and then said, with a suggestion of sadness in his tones : “Pauline, my child, if I had yours brains I might have been a United States Senator from Ohio,” ———I SS ——— Brerore one of the Justices of the Peace the lawyer for a defendant in av assault and battery case desired to prove that the plaintiff was » woman of tem- per.

As will be supposed, there must be a good body of gold size put upon the paper to make it hold the quantity of flock it doex, and it 1s this body of size which gets very hard that makes these old flocks so difficult to get off, Obviously, the principal aim in remov- ing these papers should be directed to quickly destroying this gold size and let the water get to the parts under neath, There are seyeral compostions which will effect this purpose.

The ad- vantages claimed for storing in barrels | are that the roots are easily handled, do not suffer from abrasion, can be easily | examined, and if disease appears it can be readily checked and removed. The chief objection to this method is the time and expense involved when the crop is a» large one, Bios are largely coming into use, especially in localities uear [arge cities, for the potatoes can at any time be readily reached and pre- pared for market, A col, dry, well ventilated cellar, with the light exclud- ed, is an admirable place in which to store potatoes. The argument in favor of storing po- tatoes under ground is that there is lit- tle if any loss by evaporation, Objeo- tions to the plan are the labor involved in opening the banks when the roots are required and the risk involved from the extremes of too close or insufficient cov- ermg. When pits are employed it is important that arrangements be made for ventilation. When stored in cellars, barns or root- houses it is a safe plan not to fill the bins with roots to a depth exceedin three or four feet. It has been clai that lime sprinkled in barrels or bins at that rate, say one pound to each barrel. tends to t decay by acting ss an absorbent and neatralizing the earthy odors, The im of exelnding light from potatoes and keeping them as cool as le without freezing, can not be over estimated mm— Doos have done more wjury to sheep husbandry than all other causes com- bined, and, the importance oF Hie evil it does not tesive that no- tice o hands e agricultural press that it rightly deserves.

The bog is naturally a grass and root-eating aui- mal, and in its domestication is fed al- most wholly, in this country, upon con- centrated food. Hogs fed upon skim. wed milk have less preportion of fat than those fod upon corn, If young pigs are kept upon food that will grow the muscles and bones and develop a rangy frame, they will possess so much muscle when half grown, that a moder- ate leagth of time in fattening, even on corn, will not pile on an excessive amount of fat, TaEne are many aegrees of feeding, such as poor feeding,good feeding, high feeding and over-feeding. High feed- ing can only be indulged in with young anumals, and always then with more or less risk of permanent injury to the ani- mal; but either excessively low feeding or over-eeding can only be practiced with setual injury to the beast. The over-worked or starved organs of diges- tion will never fully recover from the injury, and, what 1s far worse than the immediate injury to the animal thus wrongfully treated, the evil effects of this bad treatment are sure to be telt by the offspring, so that such a course, if persisted in, will surely bring destruction to the herd, Taz difficulty of introducing the for- eign wine grapes into America is due to several causes, among which is the fact that unless assisted by artificial means the grapes will not ripen, nor cau the vines endure the changes of our climate, Except in California, all our grapes are derived from the wild varieties, It is said that the Giruaslio, « Jootiiing drei an imported grape, to suit our climate well, it having origina ted in New Jersey.
