"No new idee. The Scripture says
wine is a mocker, strong drink is ra-
" Yes I know ; but cider isn't'
strong drink."
"Are you right certain of that,
Jonathan 7' and the old lady's eyes
flashed as if she felt sure of having
the strongest side - of the argument.
"What is strong drink?'"
"I suppose' it's anything that in
toxicates—but cider is nothing but
fipple•juice."
" Sweet cider, you mean ?"
"Yes, nothing but apple-juice,
harmless as them pippins, and 'he
pointed to a basket of beautiful fruit
on the table.
"And how long does it stay sweet ?
" Oh, I don't know exactly—rit de
pends on the weather—only a few
days, I reckon."
"Do folks generally drink it, and
call it good," she asked, with the
same light in her eyes, " when it's
sweet ?"
•
" I reckon not."
" You said that cider "—and the
old lady laid down the long blue
stocking she was knitting, and point
ed to the pitcher on the mantelpiece,
—" you said that cider was just hard
enough to be good. What made it
good, Jonathan ?"
" Well:" and the old gentleman
hitched his chair uneasily ; " well, I
suppose 'Hs 'cause it's worked a spell.
You know when cider first comes
from the mill it's too flat ?"
" Worked , a spell," and the blue
ball rolled away unnoticed ; you
mean its good cause it's got spirits
in it, do you 2"
" Well, I reckon- so." A vigorous
turning and punching of the big
back-log - sent the sporks flying up
the chimney, and interrupted the
conversatien at this point.
"If it's got spirits in it, won't it
intoxicate ?" continued his eager
questioner.
"Now, Jonathan, don't you remem
ber the time when the cider froze be
fore you put it in the cellar, and you.
made out to get a little in a cup and
get it on the stove
_to warm ; then,
when you went to- hapl fodder, you
was so drunk you rolled off the load
backwards, and the, horses ran home.
I was awfully scared for fear you had
a fit," and Polly related the affair
with the air ,of a woman who has
gained the upper .hand of her liege
lord for once, altlxmg,b the good wo
man was not at all averse to the con
tents of the pitcher herself, and like
some others who haie not s:-.en the
bitter end, thought getting a little
upset with cider rather amusing than
disgraceful.
"If cider makes folks drunk, it's
strong drink, isn't it ?" triumphantly
exclaimed Aunt Esther, as she saw
the fortifications of his fortress fall
ing to the ground under her well di
rected. artillery. ' '
" Well, I reckon—well, I never
reAlly—l never thought of it that
way before. Here's your ball, Aunt
Esther," and the old gentleman cov
ered his confusion by picking up the
ball and handing it to her with the
gallantry of youth.
"You know," continued the old
lady, placidly resuming her knitting,
now that her point was gained,

"Did John get his wheat harves t

a few moments' silence.
"He called tie men around him,
told them the dreadful- story and
what caused it, as be pointed to the
gravestone on the hill: 'Twai3 the

"True pluck. I told you, Polly,
Johii was the very man to go West,
get rich, and drive everything before
him." .
"Did the men work•? "—eagerly in
quired Polly, anxious to hear the
end of the matter.
" Not a single one refused," re
plied Aunt Esther. " The neigh
bors were surprised. The next year
some of 'em tried John's plan, and
now whiskey is hardly ever found in
a harvest-field in our county."
" John was right.. No wonder ev
erything has prospered so with him,"
said the old gentleman, approvingly.
, 1" And he had the right kind of a
wife to help him," responded Polly,
gazing admiringly at her visitor.
Aunt Esther isniiled and blushed
like a girl of ;sixteen. Suceers is
sweet, and the respect of friends a
recompense for many trials. Only
those who have experienced the hard
ships of pioneer life, know what such
success costs, and how hard it is
sometimes to stand firm for the , truth
and right when all the surrounding
influences arc on the side of wrong;
or, at least, favor compromise on the
pleaof necessity.
But the story was not finished.
Let us listen, as did the companions
of Atint Esther, to her remaining
sketch:_
As soon as John was able he
bought trees foram orchard. I helped
him set 'em out. The first crop of
apples we gathered in a bushel bask
et, put the baby on top, and carried
'em in so proud like. In a few years
we. had wagon-loads, an'd the neigh
bors, too. Illinois raises mighty4ne
fruit, and lots of it. Ehen there be
gan to be cider-mills all 'round, and
folks drank cider instead of water. I
didn't think but what 'twas all right
for quite a spell. An old man from
Indiany bought a farm next us, and
moved there; he was stiddy, and a
hard workin' man, an elder in the
church; but his two oldest boys,
about grown, was wild and rough ;
they kept gettin' drunk and wakin'
a fans in the neighbothcod. One
day I was over there a visitin'. By
and by we heard a great laugh out,
on the back stoop. A bar'! of cider
had worked so* that, the stopper ilew
oat and the cider spattered clear to
the eaves.
"'Most hard enough to hold up an
iron wedge,' said one of the boys, as
we went in to dinner."
" •Nevg,raitid,' said the old man.;
there's another burl down-cellar,and
putty soon we'll have some more.'
" Well,l stayed mighty nigh all day,
and they kept a-drinkin' and a-drink
in' on what was left of that. hard ci
der—the oia man, the old woman,
all of 'em, clean down to the little
boys, only three and five years old.
The next day wms Sunday, and them
big boys was otron another spree.
Folks felt mighty sorry for their poor
old, father and mother;, but I ss.

been. or them cider bar'ls at home
that. give 'em a start on the down'ard
road. Sontehow the sermons didn't
do me much good that day—though
Uncle David said the preaeher give
us some powerful doctrine.
" The next week Ono of the neigh
bor's little boys got drunk on cider,
and fell out of a hay-mow and was
most killed. That saved -me—a lit
tle boy, only seven years old, drunk
most all day. 11 he liked. spirits
when he was little like that wouldn't.
' the appetite grow on him till he grew
up, and got to be a drunkard mid
bad the delerious tremens like poor
Sam. That night I kept wakin' up.
-and seei7i' Sam in his coffin, only
sometimes Iwonld be Johnny, and
sometimes Freddie. The next
mornie, first thing after breakfast,
when the men watt gone oft to work
in the. field, I went out and tipped
over the barl, of cider that was
etandin' under a big tree the
yard. After a while T•went tint I
the barn to get some edru-cobs, and
forgot to fasten the gate good, and
the hogs got in the yard and rooted
up the grass all 'round where the ci
der was spilt, and wade art awful
tnusa. Btit I was busy. thin-filo', and
t never noticed 'eau at all.
"When John ',came to diither, he
turned oat -the hogs, and says. tie:
'Esther I'm dreadful sorry the grass
is spoiled so, and your uiet: beds of
pinks.. I set 'sin out ageu, awl I
guess they'll sow. I'll make `a , ilue
other fastenn' x' for that gate.' .
• I didn't , say nuthin'. I thonght
more of my. boys than my poSes; but
Pat scolded
.like every
tang 'cause the cider was goue, and
John promised to get some more the
next week. - That was Saturday.
Stinday 2 told John how the cider
gokt spilt, and then told him all I'd

thought of it that. way before, but
seemed 1:) him I was right. Them he
said: 'I promised Mike and Pat'l'd
get" 'em some cider. What'll I do
about it?'
"Says I, ' A bad promise is better
broken than kept. Give 'cm , some
thin' else, or pay ' em a litttO 'more
till their time s out—it's only' nett
month—and don't ever furnish cider.
again for your hands. Don't you re
member about the harvestin' and the
whiskey ? '
"'I never. thought I was leadin'
'em on to drink.' And en be leaned
out the window and I oked- at the
grave-stone on the bill, Und .says he:
Esther, I'll never furnish cider to
drink , agon, and go against the
drinkin' of it as long as my navi ' e's
John Sinclair."
', "I didn't think rwas doin' wrong,
bein' a stumblin'-bloelc to the
young members; but suppose we
give up the cider, Polly," exclaimed
the old gentleman, who was deeply
moved b 7 Aunt. Esther's earnest
words. ' • -
"Y Jonathan, we'll make vine
gar of what's left," replied - Polly,
rubbingcler eyes and spectacles in - a
suspicious manner. .
" And yon . :know, Pony, some of
them college chaps got some cider
here the other night. I heard to=day
they. had a spree, and carried on so,
.they've had 'em up before thelacnlty.
d'he boys will never get any more ci•

COMMON SENSE,
Too many hare imbibed the idea
that to obtain a sufficient education
to enable a man. , to appear advanta
geoOly upon the. theatre, especially
of public life, his boyhood and youth
must be spent iu the walks of some
classical seminary of learning; that
he may commence his career under
the high floating banner of•a collegi
ate diploma with them the first
round in the ladder of fame.
That a refined classical education'
is desirable, and one of the accom
plishnients of man, I adinif = that it
is indispensably necessary, and al
ways makes a man more useful, I de
ny. He who_ has been incarcerated
from his childhood up to his majori
y within the limited circumference
of his school and boarding room, ;0-
though he may have mastered all the
classics, is .destitute 'of that' know
ledge of men and things, indispensa
bly necessary- to prepare hiin for ac
tion, either in private or public life.
Classic lore and polite literature arc
very different from that vast amount
of common intelligence, fit for every
day use, that ho must hare to render
his intercourse with society pleasing
to himself or agreeable to others. He
may have a large fund of fine sense,
hat if he lacks common sense he is
I.lte a without al•ndder. . \, t
Let boys and girha be taught, ;first
and last, all that is necessary to/pre
pare them for the duties of
life. I wish not to undervalue high
seminaries of learning, but rather to
stimulate these to persevere in -the
acquirement of science, who are de
lirived of the advantage of their daz
zling lights. In this enlightened age,
and in our free country,. all who
may drink deeply at the fountain o f
science. Ignoratlca is a voluntary
misfortune By -a proper improve
went of time,. any boy of ordinary
ability may.lay in a stock of useful
knowledge that will enable hint, when
he arrives at manhood, to take a re
,spectable stand by the side of .those
who hare grown up iu the full blaze
of a collegiate, education, and with
much better prospect of success at
the start, beeausa he is -much better
stocked with comer_ii. information,
without which man:,. pitifully; help

- • LIME 'AND SALT ..I.[IXTITIUM—Prof.
Johnson . recommends for fertilizing
purposes to mix one bushel of salt -
and two btishels - of diy limo under
cover, and alloys the mixture to de
compose (Iradually, thus forming 4. , ,ku
intimate c hemical" union of the two ..
materials, For this purpose the
mixture slio?.ild be - msde at least .six
weeks before_use, or. still better, two .
or three months, tbe heap mentioned
being turned over occasionally: This
salt and lime mixture , , when applied
at the rate of twenty or. ibirtyhush
els per acre, forms an excellent top
'dressino• for 'many crops. It: , acts
powbrfa c 'lly on the vegetable matter
t s•
of soils ; fifty-xis bushels a plied to
a turnip crop have pied ' as large
a crop as barnyard man e. It is
also very destructivek to grubs and
insects in the .soil, Like Salt it at
tracts moisture from the sir, ..and is
useful against droutb. Its deOmpoik- •
hag power is remarkable, and if threO
or four _bushels of it are mixed with
a load of. swamp muck, the latter
- will.be reduced to a powder.—. Rural
