Husk it. llavc a pot of boiling water —put in your corn and let it boil three minutes—then cut it from the cobs and put it in pans in a warm oven. It must be stirred frequently; when perfectly dry put it away in bags. When wanted lor use, soak it all night, next day boil it an hour with a little salt; before it is dish ed stir in Hour, pepper, and butter. Retry Family to make their own Sweet Oil. —With a small hand-mill, every fami ly might make their own sweet oil. This may easily be done, by grinding or beating the seeds of white poppies into a paste, then boil it in water, and skim off the oil as it rises; one bushel of seed weighs fifty pounds, and produces two gallons of oil. Of the sweet olive oil sold, one half is oil of poppies. The poppies will grow in any garden; it is the large-head white poppy, sold by apothecaries. Large fields are sown with poppies in France and Flanders, for the purpose of cxpressiug oil from their seed for food. When the seed is taken out, the poppy head when dried is boiled to an extract, which is sold at two shillings per ounce, and it is to be preferred to opi um, which now sells very high. Large for tunes may be acquired by the cultivation of the poppies. Women and children could attend to the cultivation of any quan tity required for their own use, in making oil, and it would be found a profitable branch of industry, when engaged in 011 a large scale. _ ia-raaaiiiasMw Sketch from the Life of a Villain. The lull history of Edwin W. lleed's rascalities has never been written, and we propose hero to supj ly a chapter that will throw more light on the real character oi this accomplished seducer and most plausi ble rogue. We derive the fact 6 from au thentic sources. It is a fact not generally known that his wife, who lives at West Springfield, is not his wife, but a woman with whom Reed many years ago eloped, leaving his wife to die ot neglect, and his children to the chances of the world. Reed married when he was very young. His wife wasay'oung lady ot Wilbraharu, Massachusetts, and by her he had three children; one of is now a young woman married, and a resi dent of New Haven; the other two were boys, now grown up, and clerks in Spring field. The wife of Reed who lives now in West Springfield, was a pupil of his years ago iu one of his music classes—as his late victim, Miss Laura Kendall, of Granby was; and as, it is believed, several others have been, at various times. This young woman, before Reed married Jxer, was, at his solicitation, taken into his family, a 'boarder,' and soon afterward Reed ran away with her to Canada,abandon ing his wife and three young children to their fate. His wile was thrown upon the town, and eventually died in the poor house. Heed and his companion passed four years in Canada and \\ estern New York, when hearing of the death ot his wife, he caine back to W ilbrahaui, bring ing with him his companion, now his wife. At what time he married her, does not seem quite certain 5 but she is of very re spectable connexions in M ilbrahatn, and bore to lieed three children. Reed has occasioned no lit'le scandal '.n towns where he had classes of music. lie has the reputation of being a regular ' la dy-killer," and a very great hypocrite, using his professions of religion as a mask to fa vor his vile purposes Ilis manner was ve ry f rank and hearty, and he carried such an air of earnestness, honesty, and good nature, that he deceived men and women alike as to' his real character. He would shake hands with all friends in a whole-soul ed manner, and appear so lull of fresh, verLriming ' human' good feeling, as to dis.:; I, -111 suspicion, and win hostsof friends among lb most influential classes of some ty. When Deacon Kendall's daughter, Miss Laura Kendall, disappeared, suspicion be gan to fasten upon him ; but he put on an air of injured innocence, and contrived to put down suspicions in most cases. All this time Miss Kendall was living at South Boston, where she had a child by Reed — the little girl of four years, whose recogni tion of her father in jail a fortnight so affected the bystanders who witnessed that scene. Hearing at length of Deacon Kendall's death, and that he had willed to Laura a handsome share of his property, Reed induced the poor girl, who still loved him with all a woman's affection, to go home to Gran by and get her pa: lion ot the money. This he subsequently got posses sion of. When Laura's brother, Howard Kendall, of Grauby, went to South Boston to get the body ot bis unfortunate sister, be was directed to premises occupied by another victim of Reed's passions—a good looking Irish girl, who was there living with her babe, the evidence of her shame and Reed's guilty arts. Finding how things were, Mr. Kendall told the girl that Reed then had a wife and children living in West Springfield ; hut the girl stoutly refused to believe a word of this. Mr. Kendall then told her that his own visit to South Boston was to recover all that was mortal of his own sister, at that moment lying a corpse in that neighborhood, and who had been, as she (the Irish girl) was, a victim of Reed's debaucheries. The poor girl was completely overcome by this revelation of her seducer's guilt and her own doom. The little daughter of Laura Kendall, ijuw about four years old, will probably he adopted into a family living in Tariffville, near Grauby, friends of the lithe girl's dead mother. Reed's married daughter .:i New Haven seems still to low r father, and clings to him with all filial •?traction, in spite of the revelations of Lis wrong-doing. — Hartford Times, Jan. bth. A good Rebuke. —Watty Morrison, a Scotch clergyman, was a man of great wit and humor. On one occasion he entreat ed the officer at Fort George to pardois a poor fellow that was sent to the halbcrts. The officer offered to grant his request if he would, in return, grant him the first fa vor he would ask. Mr. Morrison agreed to this, and the officer immediately deman ded that the ceremony of baptism should Le performed on a puppy. The clergy man agreed to it, and a part)'of gentlemen assembled to witness the novel baptism. Mr. Morrison desired the officer to hold up the dog, as was necessary in the baptism of children, and said : 'As I am a minister of the Church of | Scotland, I must proceed according to the ! ceremonies of the Church.' ' Certainly,' said the major, ' I expect all the ceremony.' 'Well then, major, T begin with the usual question: Do you acknowledge yourself! the father of this puppy V A roar of laughter burst from the crowd, t whilst the officer in great confusion threw 1 the candidate for baptism away. Dogs. —The best way to keep a dog 1 healthy is to give him plenty of exercise, and not to over-feed him. McALISTERVILLE ACADEMY Juniata County. Pa. GEO. F.

Scientific men under the direi tion of govt rnment, and architects arid builders in various par's of the country, for years have been studying and ex|ieriinenting to discover some cmupi-aitim. or article for roofing, w hii it would resist the i hang, of our climate, and would unite the qua! it it * of import ioii tiess to w iter, iiiconibiistihility, durabiit'y and i Ileapnesv No article Dow in use possesses these qualities rthu !r are not lire proof, and cannot be used on (I it roofs, edate can only be used upon steep roofs The contraction, ex pansion and rusting of metal ie roofs are so great in this changeable climate iltat they soon tiemnie worthless, or the repairs will cost more thin a new roof The various cements and compositions w hich have been introduced can be supplied only to very fi it roofs, and they are all so aliened by the action of ihe weather that tl.ey will ineil and run in summer and crack in u inter, and in a short time become crumbly and worthless.
