the "ghost" had been discovered to

the window, the door of the house
was immediately opened, and old
Mrs. IVeeril was st.once in thegrip

thunderstruck, and quite lost her
presence of mind. Without telling
her anything of what had happened,
Mr. Burrovrs_asked for her - son, the
steward.' Al first she hesitated, then
said he was ill in bed. . .
'.-No,'!,said Mr. Burrows, '!'be is
not in bed, but he is safe enough by
this. time: in the Police office ;_ so yoti
Lad ,better ;gist tell us, all about it."
At this Mrs. Weevil entirely broke

,Burrows, she confessed that it
- Was l he_ who had played the ghoston
the previous evening; but she. had
- never before shown herself to any
one who did not at once flee and quit
the house. My attempt to get hold
of her, - therefore, had so alarmed her
that she had great difficulty in CSCarl=

- play the part of ghost any longer ; as
the present tenant was likely to stand
her groUnd, and they would in that
way,be found - out. ' - 'They were both
enroed at thus being at last baffled

design to rob me. In order to'cover
their purpose, the old hag- was-sent'
to me with the :story of her son be.j

of access to the house, he readily af-
feeted an entrance after he supposed

Mr. Burrows did hot trouble to ap - -

How -to ;Judge' a Horse.
The folloiving simple rules will be
found useful to' all parties about to
huy a horse: ,
J. Never -take the seller's word ;
if dishonest, he 'will be cert4tin to
cheat you ; if diSposed to be fair, he
may have been the dope, of another
and will deceive yon throughreprf
sentation\ which cannot be relied up
on.
2 Never trust a horse's mouth as
a sure index to his age. •
3. Never buy a horse while in mo
tion ; watei him while at rest, and
you will discover bis weak point. If
sound he will stand firmly and square
ly on his limbs, without moving any
of them, the feet - planted Sat upon,
the ground, with legs plumb and.nat
tirally poised. If one foot is throlin
forward with the toe pointing to the
ground and the heel raised / or if the
foot is lifted from the ground, and
the weight taken from it, disease of
the navicular'bone may be suspected,,
or at least tenderness, whirl* isa pre-;
cusor of disease. If the footeiti thrown
out, the toe raised and the heel Arought
down; the 4orse has suffered from
laminitis, fokmdei, or the back sinews
have been sprained ,a_frif he is of little
future value. %Men the feet, are aft
thrown together beneath the horse, if
there has been no disease, therb is a
misplacement of 'the liM,bs at least,
and 4: weak disposition , of the mus-,
eles.C;' If the - horse stands with his'
feet'spread apart ; or straddles with
the hin' legs, there is a weakness of
the loins.and the kidneys are disor
dmd. Whea the knees are bent,
athe legs totter and tremble, the
bet has been ruined by beavy pull
ing, and will never be right again,
whatever rest anti treatment he may
have. Contracted or ill-formed hoofs
speak•for themselves.
4. Never buy ti horse with a bluish
or milky cast in •his,eyes. They in
dicate a constitutional tendency to
opthalma, moon blindness, etc: -
5. Never have anythink, to do with
a horse who keeps his ears thrown
backward. This is an inZticatipn of
bad temper.

Miners who study economy will be
likely to make their own vinegar:
The process of manufacture is very
simple. The best vezirsel to tie in
making vinegar is .a barrel- in which':
hard cider or vinegar has. been stor
ed. ' ilfa new barrel' is employed, it
should be thoroughly rinsed out, ,a
gallon or more hot vinegar poured'
intad' allowed to soak into the wood.
presence of a small amount of
old.vinegar will cause- .the contents 1
of the yessel . to acidify more rapidly.
The barrel in which vinegar is made
should not be entirely; full of cider.
It is best -.to leave a space equal to
about one-third of the 'Capacity :of
the vessel in which the air can.eireu.-•- I
late.. The bung of the barrel shoUld
be left out and the Yessel placed 'on
its side about a foot from the floor. -1
In order to. increase the circulation
ofnir it is well to boar a hole in each
end 'of the barrel a'f_few indica troml

of abouo eighty deg,res' is most far . - I
orable ta. the rapid making 'of vine-
gar. „This may often be conveniently; I
obtainectlby placing the vessel back
of the stove in the cooking --- tvom.l
Sometitae's• a loft over the - kitchen
can be employed for the.nianufacture
of a considerable amount of
,vinqgar
during the winter.. If. a stovepipe
runs, through the room the requisite
temperature_ may be obtained without
extra expense.: -
The process of changing the cider
into vinegar may:be hastened by oc
casionally rolling) the barrels from.
aide to side. • 'Cider to which mus=

Saving Manure.
Geo. C. Clark writes to the Elmira
Farmers' Club as follows: "I - find
the discussions in,your club are-often
on the subject, How to,make manure
and, how to use it.' : 1 1Iy plan I have
not seen suggested. Now this is the
•
plmr I adopted nearly _tbsee years.
ago; I graded my. barnyards into a
%Sin"shape, the lower part under my
eow•stable windoW. Then I settled
a cistern five- feet deep and - eleven
feet square. Then -I laid my walla
with water and cement s sowhen done
it wait, eight .feet square. Then, I
•made a stout ' wooden frame and
placed it In' the centre ;to receive a
flagstone covering. Thiel is all Wow
'the surface and inclitied towanfthe
centre., Thin I put in a ribber chain
pump high enough to spout out the
drainage into a hogshead —standing
on-trucks. I heave the manure from
the stable right on to the cistern.
This protects it from 'frost. The
drainage from other- stables all ten-
tres into this cistern. Now, the
leaching of - the manure heaps is what_
I save to saturate .mY land. - I use a
street sprinkler.. Drive about twen
ty rods and back, the . load - is dis
charged. Last tear I saw a decided
improvement in my meadow; timothy
tall and coarse, sold it for'retail hay .
I use the liquid. to mix with • Paris•
green on lay potatoes. It is agoo , l
fertilizer as well as death to the hugs.
I never invested in patent.fertilizer..
I think a farm that can't furnish it,
own fertilizers is no farm for me.
The above is the cheapest and easie , P,

' A Cu , or COFFEE.—To malie a cup
of good'eotiee an esSentral - art is re
quisite. Many women who prat's
themselves, and justly. 'upon their'
skill fail here. '_l7.Or early risers and.
those who require an early breakfast
there is a mode of making coffee so
generally practiced . as: to •be almo-t
universal is this country, and that is
simply- bOil ground 'coffee' fer
few minutes and
.then. either settle.
the grounds with cold water Or give
them time to settle gradually. -.This:
mode can be
.greatly improved, by
corking the spout with a - cotk, cloth
or paper, thus prventing the escape
of steam which oases from the. boil
lug cotlee. By the escape of the steam
we lose much of .the _aromatic -flavor
that renders coffee
.palatable.." Let
those who cook coffee after' this
methodlry- our pl in, -and they will'
find a vast improvement: An emi
nent chemist recommends' the follow
ing as a "favorite way of making this
now universal beverage Three ,
fourths of the coffee should be boiled
anti the 'remaining fourth infused,
after Which the whole - should be mix
ed. By this means both the strength
and the flavor ; are increased. To
preserve the tiavOr of. ground coffee'
it should be
,wet . , with the. syrup of
sugar and' -then covered ' with . pow
dered sugar; in. this way the-volatile
partg of the coffee are prevented from
.ese'aping. As heretofore said, coffee.
after being roast2d- shOuld tie each 1.
ed ,from the air
. and
,kcpt in a dry
place if not used at:once, as it absorb;
from the atmosphere
.and . gradually
it •
lgseS its flavor..
