When I was about six years old, one morn
ing going to school, a ground squirrel ran into
its hole in the road before me, as they like to
dig holes in some open place, where they can
put out their head to see if any danger is near.
I thought now I will have fine fun. As there
was a stream of water just at hand, I deter-
Mined to pour water into the hole till it should
be full, and force the little animal up so that
I might kill it. I got a trough from beside a
sugar maple, used-for catching the sweet sap,
and was soon pouring water in on the poor
squirrel. I could hear it struggle to get up,
and said, "Ah, my fellow, I will soon have
you out now."
Just then I heard a voice behind me,
"Well, my boy, what have you got in there ?"
I turned and saw one of my neighbors, a good
old man, with long white locks, that had seen
sixty winters. - "Why," said I, "I have a
ground squirrel in hare; and am going to
drown him out."
Said he, "Jonathan, when I was a little
boy, more than fifty years ago, I was engaged
one day just as you are, drowning a ground
squirrel ; and an old man like me came along,
and said to me, 'You are a little boy ; now,
it yon were down in a narrow hole like that,
and I should come along and pour water down
on you to drown you, would not you think I
was cruel God made that little squirrel,
and life is as sweet to it as it is to you, -and
why will you torture to death a little innocent
creature that God has made ?' I have. never
forgotten that, and never shall. I never have
killed any harmless creature for fun since.—
Now, my dear boy, I want you to remember
this while you live, and when tempted to kill
any poor little innocent animal or bird, think
of this, and mind God don't allow us to kill
his pretty little creatures for fun."
More than forty years have since passed,
and I never forgot what the good man said,
nor have I ever killed the.least creature for
fun since. Now, you see 1t is ninety years
since this advice was first given, and it has
not lost its influence yet. How many 'little
creatures it has saved front being tortured to
death I cannot tell, but I have no doubt a
great, number, and I believe my whole life
has been influenced by it.
Now, I want all the dear little boys, when
they read this, to keep it in mind ; and when
they see pretty birds or harmless animals
playing or hunting their food, not to hurt
them. Your Heavenly Father made them,
and he never intended them to be killed for
fun. I don't think, when the blessed Jesus
was a little boy, he would have killed such
innocent creatures for fun, and every little
boy shcnild try to be as much like Jesus as he
can. The Bible Eva, "Blessed are the mer
ciful, for they shall obtain' mercy."—Lessons
on Kindness to Animals.

GONE AWAIT.
I ice the farm:hou.se red and old,
Above the roof its maples sway ;
The hills behind are bleak and cold,
The wind edtnes up and dies sway.
I gaze into each empty room
Arid as I gaze a gnawing pain
Is at my hear; at thought of those
Who ne'er will pass the door again
And, strolling down the orchard slope,
(So wide a likeness grief will crave,)
Each dead leaf seems a withered hope,
Each mossy hillock looks a grave.
They will not hear me if I call;
They will not see these tears that start ;
'Tis autumn—autumn with it all—
And worse than autumn in my heart.
0, leaves so dry, and dead, and sere !
I can recall some lumpier hours,
When summer's glory lingered there,[ers
And summer's beauty touched the flow
Adown the slope a slender shape
Danced lightly, with her flying curls,
And manhood's deeper, tones were blent
With the gay laugh of happy girls.
0, stolen meetings at the gate !
0, lingerings at the open door !
0, moonlight rambles long and late !
My heart can scarce believe them o'er.
And yet the silence strange and still,
The air of sadness and decay,
The moss that grows upon the sill—
Yes, Love and Hope have gone away !
So like, so like a worn-oat heart !
Which tie last tenant finds too cold,
And leaves forevermore, as they
Have left this homestead, red and old
Poor empty house! poor lonely heart !
'Twere well if bravely, side by side,
Yon waited till the hand of Time
Each ruin's mossy wreath supplied.
I lean upon the gate, and sigh ;
Some bitter tears will force their way,
And then I bid the place good-bye
For many a long and weary day.
I cross the little ice-bound brook,
(In summer 'tis a noisy'stream,)
Turn round, to take a last fond look,
And all has faded like a dream.

IPARAIiAT'S TiLEOBT OF LIFE.
,Prof. Faraday adopts Flourin's physlolo
glad theory that the natural age of man is one
hundred years. The duration of life he be
lives to be measured by the time of growth.—
When once the hones and epiphyses are uni
ted, the body grows no more, and it is, at
twenty years this union is effected in man.—
In the camel it 'takes, place at eight, in the
horse at five, in the lion at four, in the dog at
two, in the rabbit at one. The natural termi
nation of life is five removes from these scv
' eral points. Man being twenty years in
~growing, lives five times 20 years, that is, 100 ;
the camel is eight years in growing, and lives
five-times 8 years, that is to say, 40 years; the
horse five years in growing, and he Nves 25
years; and so with other animals. The man
who does not die of sickness lives everywhere
from eighty to one hundred years. Providence
has given to man a century , of life, but he
does not attain it because he inherits diseases,
eats unwholesome food, gives license to „pas
sions, and permits vexatfons to disturb his
healthy equipoise; he does not die, he kills
himself. He divides life into two equal halves,
growth and decline, and these halves into in
fancy, youth, virility, and age. Infancy ex
tends to the 20th year ; youth to the 50th, be
cause it is during this period that the tissues
become firm ; virility from 50 to 75, during
which the organism remains complete, and at
75 old age commences, to last a longer or
shorter time as the diminution of reserved
forces is hastened or retarded.
Omar Jcartcy. Parsons was one of the
ablest men that Massachusetts ever produced.
His power with a jury was extraordinary.—
He avoided, from principle, all attempts at
oratory, being convinced, as was often said of
Mr. Choate, that a reputation for eloquence
was a formidable obstacle to success. He
talked directly to the jury in simple lan
guage, with great conciseness, putting the
case with clearness, pressing it with strong
logic, and making them feel that he had no
doubt they must agree with him. His most
elaborate arguments did not exceed an hour,
and rarely went beyond half an hour. An em
inent lawyer tells an amusing story of one of
his early pleas. The, case was an important
one, and Parsons was unknown to most per
sons outside the bar. When he began hisar
gument he leaned one foot on a chair, and one
elbow on his knee, and began to talk as if he
were explaining the 'hatter to a company of
neighbors, and there could be no doubt about
his version of it. The lawyers saw at once
that he was winding the jury round his finger,
but they were unconscious of the process,for
when they had given him the verdict, one of
them came to the lawyer and said naively,
"Who is this Mr. Parsons? He is not much
of a lawyer, and don't look or talk as if he
would ever be one ; but he seems to be a real
good sort of a man."
Errilscr OF WORDS. —The following anec
dote is related of an Eastern monarch, and is
exceedingly suggestive. We once heard of a
distinguished physician who thanked God be
cause he was deaf, since it saved him from
hearing a world of nonsense. But we are in
clined to think that quite as much nonsense
enters through the eye as the ear. The mon
arch.had books enough to load a thousand
camels. "I cannot read all this," said he.—
"Select the cream awl essence of it, and let
roc bare that. - , Whereupon the librarian (EA
tilled this ocean of words down to thirty cam
el loads. "Too bulky yet," said the monarch.
"I have not time to read that." Whereupon
the thirty loads were doubly distilled, and a
selection was made sufficient to load a single
ass. "Too bulky yet," said the monarch.—
Whereupon it was trebly distilled, and the
only residuum was th4se three lines written on
a palm leaf: "This is the sum of all science
—Perhaps." "This Is the sum of morality—
Love that which is good, and practice it."—
"This is - the sum of all creeds—Believe
what is true, and do not tell all you believe.'
A CENTRE Snor.—Henry Ward Beecher,
in a sermon delivered in Plymouth Church re
cently, produced the following picture :
Men seem ashamed of labor, and often you
will find men who have made themselves re
spected by labor, have built up a business and
amassed a fortune, who turn to their sons and
say : "You shall never do as I did; you shall
lead &different life ; you shall be spared all
this." Oh, these rich men's eons. They aim
to lead' life of emasculated idleness. Like
the polyp that floats useless and nasty upon
the sea; all jelly, all flabby, no muscle, no
bone—it shuts and opens, and opens and shuts,
and sucks in and squirts Out again, of no

A gentleman visiting the family of a worthy
deacon in a neighboring town, had been
showing the children one evening, a beauti
ful music box,' after which he wound up and
put the instrument into his pocket. At the
hour of retiring for the night, the visitor was
celled upon for a prayer, and having got upon
knees, was In the midst of what promised
to be a somewhat prolonged petition, when
suddenly in consequence of a change of posi
lion on the part of the supplicant, the musical
box started gayly of with tbe tune, "Take
your time,' Miss Lucy!" To Fay that the
prayer was brought to a rather abrupt termina
tion, and that even the' worthy deacon rose
hum hisknees all but convulsed with laugh
ter, is drawing the effete of-the incident quite
mildly.

farmers will find plenty greedy buyers, willing

PRESERVING EGGS.—No egg is ,fresh that
will shake ; this is because it has lost some of
its albumen. No egg has ever been presented
over a month that will not shake, except . it be
air-proofed, which is ti term not gezterally On
derstood, and is a new process. The eggbas
been 'coated with every conceivable compCsi
tion, even in solid stone, and galvanized,
• -et
the watery material escdpes. The philosolihy
of this is that there is air in,the egg befoni it
is treated, and this uniting its oxygen and car
bon, produces decomposition by carbonic acid
gas, the yellow of the egg first breaking, then
follows the destruction. Eggs are naturally
designed to last as long as the hen requires!to
get her brood, and the life germ can be pre
served a few weeks—seven or eight but, no
longer. The egg itself may be kept in a pre
served state for two years by greasing 'with
butter, oil, or lard, but front the time it is thus
put up to the end of two years it will 'daily
lose its albumen by transpiration, and while
its carbonic acid escapes to a certain &Acta,
the egg meat will be reduced two-thirds, find
will shake. For, culinary purposes they will
do very well. 13ut we want a whole egg, not
a half one, and we want them fresh. Butier
and lard and suet have been used for hitira
century, still nothing has recommended itself
ever the liming system in a commercial point
of view. The theory always has been, and
still is, that to keep an egg fresh the air mist
be excluded. It is the only philosophical
treatment of it that can be made. Externally
kept from the air, the latter is powerless to do •-
harm, but the air inside no mortal can preverd,
and that alone id time will decompose the egg.

Tug SECRET OF GOOD BrTTEß.—Therein
proce, of working or washing that will secant
a good article of butter, or that will get all the
buttermilk out till it has stood a short time,
when it must be worked over the second time,
after which it will keep a long time. Butter
that has not been worked over the second
time will not keep more than two or three
days in warm weather. I don't care ho*
much'pains you take with it, the buttermilk
that Lsleft in the butter becoming sour, mate
your butter rancid. I have bought and sold
butter in this state, and know what I am talk
ing about; and here is where the trouble ber
gins, you are bound to sell all the buttermilk
you can and so long as dealers pay as muck
for buttermilk as they do for a nice articled
butter we cannot expect you to do much beo
- Lam satisfied that there can be just as •
good butter made in Indiana as is made lathe
cheese and batter regions of the Eastern States.
But just so long as we pursue the enticidepo-
Hey of selling buttermilk with the butter, so
long our butter will be quoted in Eastern mar
kets as Western grease.- Correspondent '

PLANT Tnees.—Tea acres of timber will
supply a family with fuel. Half an acre per
year will suffice to keep two or three fires go
ing constantly, or all the time a fire is needed.
By the time the last half acre is tit over,
which will be.on the twentieth year, the first
half acre will be again ready for the axe. Ten
acres are enough for all the necessary pur
poses of fuel on a hundred and sixty acre farm.
that is, one sixteenth part of the farm in tim
ber. Timber will grow almost anywhere,.—
Every farmer will do well to look at this mat
ter. It will require only a few days work; to
start the ten acres. No other ten acres on the
farm will yield a larger profit when the tim
ber is once large enough to cut.—Kansas

LICE ON lIENS.-A subscriber in Brattle
boro' wishes to know what will destroy lice
on hens, when in their coops.
When hens are kept shut up, their caps
should be whitewashed frequently, especially
about their roosting places, and if the hens are
supplied with ashes in which to burrow, there
will be but little.liability of their being infest
ed with lice. Air-slaeked lime sprinklo a
bout the place is also excellent.—Exchainge.
WILLOW CULTUTIS.—Over 5,000 different at
tides of common use are manufactured from
the bisket willow. It will best grow where
nothing but grass can be produced, and there
are many waste places where not even, the
grass is, saved in. which the willow will thrive.
PURE WATER FOR A,simAts.—An Ili noia
farmer, in a note to the New York Fanners'
Club, says he has never known a case the
dreaded milk Blau:teas, where the anizna had
plenty of pure wider.
