- -EARM AND. HOUSEHOLD. Away with Rats. ___o_.. Prim lay own experience I e , timete that the damage done by rats upon - any one farm is equal to what world be con sumed by a pair of hura.is. That this damage is not prevented simply shows that a man knows less than a rat. found it so, and gave up attempts to trap or poison them, inconsequence of repeat ed defeats. But in seltpresevatiou I was obliged to discover some means of get ting rid of them, and finally concluded that to destroy their haunts wasiny best plan. I therefore "carried the war into Africa," as I might say. My first move ment was to open all the underpinning of my buildings, and where they were less than a foot from the ground to raise them to at least 18 inches. Instead of having the floors of my sheds and pens laid alien sleepers, which rested upon the ground, and thus furnished the most secure hiding places for the vermin, 1 placed them upon sills and joists which rested upon short posts. In short, I let daylight in everywhere. The granary was made so that I could pass around the bins, and the barn was arranged so that the driveways and everything about was open to daylight and the cats. That most vulnerable point, the corn crib, I raistd upon posts, each of which was capped with a tin pan placed bottom upward, and removed it three feet from the fence, within a foot of which it formerly stood. Then the long familiar squeak beneath the floor was heard no more, and the rats which formerly came out when the pigs were fed, and joined in the feast, had gone; their little game was up. As for the mice, a few of them remained about the barn ; but as soon as they left their hiding places they were picked up even by the fowls, and it was not long before some of my light Bramas became excellent mon. secs. In short, by removing every hiding place, permitting no rubbish to lie around and by preserving perfect neatness every where, I soon got rid of every rat which formerly infested my premises. Where they went I do not know exactly, but expect they found plenty of room and agreeable darkness around my neighbors barns and sheds.— Tribune. Coal Ashes for Pear Trees. As the real value of coal ashes is just being ascertained, I will mention a fact that came under my own observation the past summer. A fnend of mine near Le Roy, has a large number of pear trees, both standard and dwarf. Last spring he cathered all his coal ashes, and placed around his pear trees, taking extra pains that the poorest trees shouk . be attended to. Now for the consequences. Every tree that had ashes amend showed unmis takable signs of improvement by being loaded with fruit. And another thing, he did not louse a singl e tree from blight,al. though a great many were struck with it in the same locality. Now I cannot say the ashes saved the trees from the blight, but he thinks they did. At any rate it is worth trying. I think coal ashes just the thing for pear trees.—Rural Home Honey Bees. __o._. Professor Agassiz said, in reference to honey.bees : The beehive consists when in full activity, of one queen, several hundred dronts, and many thousand working bees. These constitute a com munity by which a combined system of labor is earned on transcending in many respects the most curtiplhatted actions of man himself. Their structure shows no organ similar to those by which the men tal- tanctions are manifested in the higher animals and in man. They have no brain proper, nor does their nervous aye. tern correspond in any way to that of the vertebrates. Weed Seeding. ——o— Passing by the garden of a careles farmer the other day, I remarked that I thought it would be as well to pull up a large col ony of mulling, ready and willing to re produce another and greatly enlarged set t!, meat of plants next year. 'But I will pull them up when I have time, if not, I guess they won't hurt anything," was the' reply. If that man would calculate the effects next year I believe the Elgin es would scare him into immediate action Dr. Lindley estimates that one plant of, the common Sow Thistle will produce 11,040 seeds in a single season, and the mullin is not far behind as a cropper. " Never put off until to-morrow what can be done today" in the case of trouble some weeds. Low vs. Bleb Fruit Trees. --o An Illinois fruit-grower,who has 12,000 apple,and from 4, 000 to 6, 000 pear trees, lauds that" those with low heads, of the same varieties, show at least two-thirds more fruit, as large or larger, and as high colored as those with high tops. To test the matter he cut off in certain rows all the limbs from four to six feet from the ground, sod others be encouraged the limbs to start close to the surface,,and in the latter case neitber thiimed nor pruned, except occasionaly to lop away too lusty shoots in order to preserve a symmetrical appearance or evenly bal anced head, and the &nova is the result.

As there is •no•preacher within thirty miles,the.way. for marrying is by kissing Across a table. .Reeently a New York drummer was, oat there. He put up at a private house, and became quite intimate, One evening he was fooling around one of the girls, generally trying the extent of her sweet temper, when she gave his whiskers a pull and ran. 41e followed. She got the table be tween them. He chased her arouna it several - times. When out of breath he stopped on the other side, making a wild plunge caught her in his arms and gave her a hearty kiss. She then eat down on the sofa, and they talked pleasantly for a couple of hours—he thinking it singular that she should sit up so late. At ltiSt she said, "Don't you think its about time we went to bed?" "I goese you are right.P "Let 6 go:' She lit a candle and be was about to do the same, when she said, "I reckon one's enough: One candle will light two folks to bed." Undoubtedly it would' when those two Persons occnpy the acme room. But your candle won't illuminate my chamber." "Ain't we married?" "Au't we what?" shouted the gentle man. •"Married! Didn't you kiss me across the table ? That married as." A cold sweat spread over the drummer He knew that if be said he wasn't mar ried to her, she would make an outcry, and*then her loving and much tobacco consuming father would arise in his wrath and curve him into curlete, and her brotherswonld bring down their shot guns and emtny,llle contests into him' tie must be strategic. He must put her off, So he said: "Fairest of your sex, permit me to re mark that I did not know that kissing acrosa the table constituted a marriage ceremony. Brit lam content. I have never seen one that so completely filled my ideal of a beautiful, sweet, loving and modest woman. However I would never think of bolding you to this marriage, until I had asked the permission of your father to pay my addresses to you. To morrow, at dinntr, when the entire fllll - are present, I will propose for your fair hand.', This satisfied the lady, and, after be stowing upon him a fervent kiss, she went to her room and he took another candle and went to his. He packed his carpet bag, took off his boots and made tracks for the nearest railroad nation. He didn't feel entirely safe until he reached St. Louis He hasn't informed his wife of his little adventure. He's afraid she might write oat to Arkansas for Abu facts in the case, and then he might get arrested for biga my. Women sometimes wont listen to reason, yon know. A few days ago, a very handsome lady entered a dry goods house and inquired for a bean. The polite clerk drew him self back and remarked that he was at her service. "Yes, but I want a buff not green one," was the reply. The young man went on measuring goods immedi ately. A rumrtry arlitpt recantlyt to his readers : 'lf anything will revive a sinner's hope and give him a realizing sense that he may be saved, it is to gaze tilt(' the starry loveliness of a pair of black eyes and hear an eighteen year old themurmur the words, "I love you." 'fhe next day a superintendent of a lu natic asylum came along and scooped him in. Poor fellow ! A strong-minded woman made the fol lowing gentle reply to a politician who called at her house, to get her husband to go and vote : No sir he can't go. He's washing to-day and ho's got to iron to morrow, and if he wasn't doing anything he couldn't go. I run this'ere house, I do, and if any one votes it'll be this same Nary Jane." A- sailor dropped oct of the rigging of a ship of war, some fifteen or twenty feet and fell plump on the head of the first lieutenant. "Wretch l" said the officer, after he had gathered himself np, "Where the deuce did you come from ?" "An', sure I cum from the north of Ireland, yer honor." "How old is your mother ?" asked a love smitten old bachelor of the daugh ter of the widow who had enchanted him. "I don't know sir; ma's age varies from about forty-three to twenty-6ve," was the artless reply, and the bachelor was disenchanted. A Green Bay woman, whose husband kicks her down stairs every second night save shilikes to look over his old letters commencing with : "My dearest, darling little angel Minnie, heaven alone knows the depth of mT love for yon." , A lady had her dregs trimmmed with bugles before going too ball. Her little daughter wanted to know if the bugles would blow when she claimed ? "Oh no„ said the mother, "papa will do that when he sees the bill." A newspaper published the following notes ;—Lost or _trade from the s-riber a sbepe ill over white—one leg was black and half his body—all persons- shall re ceive five dollars to bring him.

Bitters are a manly Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the native herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, the medicinal pro perties of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked, " What is the cause of the unparalleled success of Vomosn Eirr- Tans? " Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient recov ers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of Vninosa Blame in healing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or In flammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases. If men will enjoy good health, let them use VINECIAU BrrrEas as a medicine, and avoid the use of alcoholic stimulants in every form. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de stroyed by mineral poison or other mean", and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Gratefol Thousands proclaim Voiman ttrrrnua the most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. Bilious, Remittent, and Intermit tent Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivets throughout the United States, especially those of the lila siseippi, Ohio, lEssouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, 'Red, Colorado, Bra- ZO.l, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah,Roanoke,James,and many others, with their vial, tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Au tumn, and remarkably so during seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to De. J. WALICEIA Vistcan Brrrras, as they will speedily , remove the dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver. and generally rector. ing the healthy functions of the digestive orus.

For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Stich Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases. —Persons en in Paints and Minerals, such as gaged Plumbers, Type-setters, (fold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of Waxasa's Vun so.ri Brmats occasionally. For Skin Diseases; Eruptions, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pus tules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ringworms, Scald Head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Souris, Discoloration of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurk ing m the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No sys tem of medicine, no vermiluges, no anthel minitics, vllll free the system from worms like these Bitters For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wom anhood or the tarn of life, these Tonic Bit ters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Jauudice.—ln all cases of jai:lndies., rest assured that your liver is not doing ita work. The ouly sensible treatment is to promote the secretion of the bile and favor its re moval. For this purpose use VICIZaat Brx vms. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when• ever you find its impurities bursting through, the akin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Bores;. cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. 11. H. 211cDONALD & CO.. Bold by all Druggists and Dealers. Druggists aul Oeuend egexdr.
