THREE view,” In grasping at shadows we ten Jose the reality, . In no instance | 8 this trulsm better n that of looking for a new home, The glowing pictures of the possibili- ties of the far West have been por- | trayved with such skillful touches of both pen and imagination as to cause | very many to overlook the vastly better possibilities at ther very loors almost, They go hundreds | or thousands of miles only to| find that in grasping at a shadow they | have lost a comfortable home amid | pleasant surroundings. To illustrate | our meaning let us take Cumberland | Colony, In New Jersey. Here is a | tract of land, within a mmle or two of | the celebrated Vineland district, enjoy- ing with that equal advantages of soil | and climate. Within easy distance of | a station on one of the main New Jer- sey railroads. Possessing for markets | the two great cities of ’hiladeiphia and | New York, and in addition that of Al- | lantic City, the most noted seaside re- | sort on the Jersey coast, its summer population approximating 70,000 people. With a soil responding quickly and | generously in all garden and horti- cultural products to the skill and in- lastry of the husbandman. With | {umber in plenty for lumber, fuel, ar ad fencing. With good water, bealth- | fal climate, of easy access, prices | and easy terms, In a nut-shell, these are the advantazes of Cumberland | Colony. Cowpare them with those of the much advertised and “boomed” | sections of Califormia or the nortb- west, and value 1s enhanced by the comparison. Toen take into ace count the fact that this tract is al most at vou doors; that can be | reached at a small expe Wditure of time | and money; and that in selling U you are still within visiting distance | of your old home and friends, and the much vaunted glories of the W est sink inte siothiogness, We cite Cumberland | Colony not so much for the purpose oi advertisi ia good qualities, as to em- phasiz zs the fact that t! are many | places in the E: possessing all the advantages of California, and also the additional ones of the easy and] eheap access to the looker after a | home, and nearness to the scepes and faces which bind him to the place has called home, It! may be asked why are not lands sit- uated as are those of the Cumberland Colony not sold years ago, if they are | $0 valuable. DD .flerent reasons will ap- | ply to different localities, In the case of the Cumberland Colony thes reason is that they formed a part of a large es- tate, that has been tied up In conse- guence of no division among the heirs; and that it 1s only lately that such a division has been made, and the own- ership vested in one person, enabling them to be placed in a salable condi tion, and their advantaces of soil loca- tion and climate brought within reach of the people. low their i 1 ere ng | ra 81 ha A —— A very simple arrangems: to have been adopted in use of petroleum for locomotives resort which, as weil known, has be- cotpe more general in that country than in any other. The refuse is laid on the | highest step at both endsof the fire-box, | and drops frem one step to the other, No steam is introduced into the fise- box, as the refuse petroleum sim runs through the pipes by gravi ation, th 10 tank carrying the betroleum being #} ed pot pn the floor of the tender, but upon the water tank. Should petroleum be too thick, it 1s arranged that steam can be introduced thro a warm pipe in the tank, the steam 1 timately exhausting into the tep der.

It is also believed that waterproof paper, such as has come into such extensive use, causes increased dampness of the wall. the stoppage of all . circulation of air necessarily jatventing their drying —ihis prolonged dampness of the walls being unhealthy and productive also of other evils “CLARA has just returned my en- gagement ring," sighed Charley, **and all is over between us,” **What kind asked George—**diamond?” *‘No; a cheap affair; only cost a couple of Sellars.
