Improving Seed Wheat
We have often insisted that if
farm
ers would take the same pains to save
the largeet grains and heads of wheat
for seed that they do to save the best
ears of corn for seed, there is no reason
why wheat should deteriorate by years
of culture any more than corn. The
following from a writer in the Jiural
New Yorker, proves onr theory : Sow
none but the largest aud most perfect
kernels. It has been my practice for
ine last sixteen or eighteen years to run
my wheat for seed over a very coarse
seed-screen, so as to sow none but the
very largest kernels. By so doing
have improved my wheat so that I have
Bold nenrly all my wheat at hoiue for
seed. But in 1871 1 hit upon a new
plan. I had a piece of Tread well wheat
that was injured by insects in the pre
vious fall and killed by freezing in the
winter, so that there were spots not
worth cutting. After harvest I ob
served a few scattering heads of unusual
size. It occurred to me that there was
wheat that had withstood the ravages
of the insects and the rigor of the win
ter. I gathered enough to sow one rod
square, from which I realized twenty
pounds or wneat oi unusually large
even berry, which was at the ratio of
over fifty bushels per acre ; last harvest
had twenty bushels which weighed
aizty-siz pounds per Dusiiel. it is my
opinion mat we realize tne best crops
irom tue uesi ana most perfect seed in
the vegetable as well as the animal
kingdom.
Breeding Stock
It is not au unworthy ambition for
any larrner to cultivate to establish bv
careful breeding and judicious crossing
a breed of animals of his own of
cattle, sheep or swine adapted to his
locality and wants, filling his ideal of
what his experience may have taught
him a desirable animal should be for
his locality. Of course in making such
an effort he should study thoroughly
tue diiierent existing breeds and have
their merits and demerits well defined
in his mind ; and the objects he is to
attain by his breeding experiments
should be equally well defined. But
there is so little effort made to improve
upon or retain the good qualities of our
native breeds and yet add to them those
desirable iu the imported, that
we really have few or no -independent
and original breeders that is, men
with original ideas that have beeu for
mulated from the generalizations of
experience aud Knowledge of the need
of this country, with its varied climates,
soilH, aud conditions of animal growth,
mere is a wide neid hero for some
enterprising young American farmer to
occupy. It will require years of pa.
tient labor, study and experiment ; but
it will pay,

There was a little incident in the See
ond National Bank of Winona, Minn
Dome time during the forenoon
man called in and got some large bills
exchanged. At noon, while the occu
pants o; the bank, with the exception
of Mr. William Garlock, Jr., were gone
to dinner, a stranger entered and asked
to see the manager, but on being in'
formed that he was out, the stranger
asked it lie could step into the three
tors' room and wait for him. Mr. Gar
lock didn't exactly like the idea, but
consented, and the stranger stepped
through the open door and took a seat
iu the room, from which another door
communicates with the interior of the
bank. Presently another man came in
ond was instantly recognized by Mr.
Garlock as the one who bad the bills
changed in the morning. He stepped
to the counter and made a singular in
quiry as to what a certain sum of money
would amount to if deposited for a
minor child of thirteen years, and left
at compound interest for a term of
years, which he stated. As this prob
lem was propounded, the individual
in the directors' room moved over to a
chair commanding a view inside of the
counter. Garlock in an instant sus
pecting a ruse from the actions of the
man, quietly took a revolver from a
drawer and informed the individual at
the counter that he had no time to
figure on any such question, and the
fellow dropped his bead and walked
out. Singular enough, in a minute or
two, the stranger in the directors' room
also passed out. Garlock was present
ed with a handsome new revolver by
the directors of the bank.
A Hint. To cleanse a oomfoit, tie it
tip loosely and plunge it in scalding
water for an hour or two, then spread it
on the grass, and let the rain fall on it
till it is thoroughly rinsed, and dry in
the sun, turning it two or three times a
day. Blankets are far more wholesome
than comforts, and can be cleaned much
more readily. In the coming civiliza
tion of our race " comforts " will be

A Fearful Adventure,
T Atn ft doctor livinar on twentv-third
street, New York, and last winter I had
fearful adverture witu a mamao, tne
account of which I have not before
made pnblio, from the fact that I have
so shuddered to think of that night of
horror that I have not before summon
ed courage to recall the oiroumstanoes
at the point of my pen ; but my nerves
have grown stronger, and I give this to
the publio as an evidence that truth, if
not stranger than fiction, has at least a
more fearful realization. The follow
ing is the story:
One stormy night in December, dur
ing a visit of my family to Pongheepsie,
was all alone, the servants even being
away at a wake, or a wedding, when a
ritig at the door-bell summoned me to
the hall, and, on opening the door, was
confronted by a large fine-looking
man, well dressed, and of pleasing
manners.
" Good evening," said he, in a splen
did voioe.
"This is Dr. B-
is it
not?"
"That is my name, sir," I replied
blondly. " Will you walk in ?"
" Thank you, sir," he returned, in a
manner that showed him to be proficient
in politeness. "Are you disengaged
for the evening, doctor ?"
" 1 am, said I.
" I am very glad that you are, sir,"
he replied ; ""it gives mo au opportuni
ty I have long desired of conversing
with you upon anatomical science,
with, perhaps, some practical illustra
tions : and with this he followed me
into my office and seated himself before
tho comfortable grate.
As he had apparently forgotten to
leave bis hat on the rack in the hall, I
requested him to take it off, and offered
to carry it to the hall for him, aud
while he rose to take it off it gave me a
fine opportunity to observe his splen
did physique. He was apparently over
bix feet in height,and of musoular pro
portions, a very Apollo in form, witn
handsome, regular ferturea, a fine mus
taohe, and luminous black eyes that at
times had a wonderful glitter in them.
" Who have I the honor of meeting (
said I, when I returned from the hall.
"Ah I 'be replied, with a smile, "as
to the honor, you are raising a question;
as to the name, I am answering one in
the card I have the honor of presenting
to you.
On a handsomely-written card I read
the name, "John Dalhousie, M. D.,
No. 75 Lombard street, London," and
immediately I entertained a higher feel
ing of respect for my visitor, and at
tached more importance to the visit.
A lecture of mine upon anatomy had
been read nnd favorably commented
upon by the Board of Surgeons in Lon
don, and I was vain enough to think
that this had induced the visit ; so I
extended all my hospitality to my visi
tor, and placed before him wines and
cigars, and we entered into an animated
conversation, in which 1 found him well
read and deeply versed in medicine and
surgery, and the appearances were that
I had more to learn from him than to
impart.
1 noticed, as he sipped the wine irom
time to time, that the gleam of his black
eyes grew more intense, but I supposed
this came from bis deep interest in the
subject of our conversation, lie then
proposed that we should go to my dis
secting-room, which 1 had located on
the top floor for the benefit of a fine
skylight, and with pleasure I led the
way, and lit a fire in the stove, which I
always kept ready to touch off, so that
we soon had a hot hre, and tne room
warm, while I threw on a flood of gas
light, which made the room brilliant.
indeed. He examined my surgical and
dissecting instruments, and his eyes
glistened as he remarked how be stiould
like an opportunity of using thorn, and
I expressed my regrets that I had not a
subject to place at bis disposal. He
then told me he had an original plan
for testing the strength of the human
heart and its highest degree of pulsa
tion, and if I would lie down upon the
dissectiug-table he would practically
demonstrate it to me. He said it would
be best ts remove my clothing to the
waist, so I stripped them off and-laid
down upon the table. He then went to
my head and leaned over me, and in
moment, before I was aware of his
purpose, be had my arms pinioned back
with a rope that he had evidently taken
out of lils pocket, with slip-noose all
prepared. As he bound me more nrmiy,
he told me that if I made a noise he
would stab me to the heart. He then
went to my feet and bound them firmly,
and I had an opportunity of looking
into his face : insanity gleamed from
his eyes ; I saw that I was in the power
of a maniac. Utterly helpless, I dared
not make a noise, knowing he would
kill me the moment I did. My agony
of suspense was awful. What was he
going to do?
He took up my dissecting instru
ments, and his eyes gleamed with
fiendish delight. All hope died in my
breast ; I saw his purpose. He said to
me, with a demoniacal laugh that made
my blood run cold, as if freezing in my
veins :
" Ah, doctor, you regretted not hav
ing a subject for dissection at my dis
posal j you see how asily I have se
cured one. It is my old plan of securing
living subjects ; I like to operate on
them best, and study the vitality of
each particular part of the human body,
and how long life will last under dis
section of any one of its parts."
"My God I I exclaimed, in my
agony j " you are not going to dissect
me alive ?''
"Why, certainly I am," he said, with
a laugh. " You owe that much to
Rcience. You know Paul said, ' though
I give my body t j be burned,' and sure
ly you can give yours to be cut up.
You have passed your age of useful
ness, and have drifted into the old-fogy
ideas ; you are not a progressionist as
am ; you belong to the old school,
which, like the Bourbons, never learns
anything and never forgets anything,
and it is better for you to be anatomized
than fossilized ; fossils are nothing to
science, anatomy is everything.
"But," said I, in the most appealing
voioe, "my dear sir, we owe something
to humanity as well as to science ; we
owe something to hospitality. Remem
ber you are my guest ; I have treated
you kindly and well ; you surely cannot
violate my hospitality thus. Think of
my wife and dear little ones, who would
return to a home of desolation if you
were so cruel."
For a moment his'eyes softened, and
hope rose in my breast ; but be looked
at my keen instruments again and the
gleam came back to him, and I felt as
one might feel in the power of a lion.as
he replied :
" Soience, my dear doctor ; science
is everything. All lesser considerations
must give way to science. Our mar
riage and domestio relations in this
life are, after all, but demonstrations
of scienoe."
He then took the poker and stuck the
end of it in the red hot stove. What
horrible torture was he preparing for
me I O, heavens I could nothing move
this maniac from bis bobby of soience ?
" You see, doctor," he said, " I am
studying the human heart and its vital
forces, and you can understand how
neoessary it is that life exist in it for
tho purposes of a satisfactory investiga
tion. I am now heating this poker to
a white heat, and I shall slowly approach
your heart with it, and particularly
note its pulsations, until, by plunging
the hot iron into it, it ceases to beat.
Ah. that will be a splendid triumph for
. i-r 1 41 -
sctenoe. riarvey aiscovereo uie circu
lation of the blood, but he never ran a
red-hot iron itto a living human
heart."
It was the awful moment of all my
existence when he drew that iron from
the fire at a whita heat and began slow
ly descending its point to my naked
breast ana neart, wnicn would soon
cease to beat, as the white-heated, hiss
ing iron would be burried in its quiver
ing valves. O, my reader, may you
never have such a moment of intense
agony, not even when you rise on the
morning of that last day.
"Ah, me," said he, suddenly, "I had
forgotten a most important part of the
investigation. Have you a pulsimeter ?
I desire to note the exact pulsation of
your heart."
A ray of hope lit up my soul at this
inquiry, as a slender chance of salva
tion presented itself, just as drowning
men catch at straws, and I replied :
" Yes, doctor, you will find a very fine
one in that closet to the right ; the door
has a combination lock ; turn the knob
three times forward and twice backward,
and it will be unlocked. You will find
the pulsimeter on the upper shelf."
In this closet I had a wonderful skele
ton, so arranged with strong springs
and connection with the door and lock,
that any one opening the door by the
knob would be caught in the arms of
the skeleton, and held with an iron
grasp, so that no man of ordinary
strength could break away.
The maniac placed the iron again to
the stove to regain its white beat, and
went to the door, turning the knob as
I had directed him. In my young days
I had practiced ventriloquism, and just
as he opened. tne door and the skeleton
grasped him in its cold, deathly em
brace, I threw my voice into its rattling
jaws and exclaimed in a sepulchral
tone :
"Ah, my fino fellow, I have you at
last, have 1? One by one I gather you
in 1 Come with me. I'll give you some
practical demonstrations of science."
With an unearthly yell of terror he
broke away in his great strength from
the skeleton, and with a deathly fright
in his formerly gleaming eye he rushed
witn streaming hair down the steps,
and the slamming of the front .door
came faintly up to me, and then I knew
uo more until tho servant girl came
home, and, searching for me, found me
tied upon my dissecting table, from
which she rescued me, and I slowly re
covered from the fearful nervous strain.
About one month after this occurrence
I saw an account of a body having been
found in tue water at one of the East
River docks. The inquest was " Death
by drowning," supposed to be acciden
tal or suicidal. The body was taken tc
the Morgue for recsgnition. The de
scription attracted my attention ; I went
to see it, and requested that if not re-
cognized and claimed I might have the
body for the disseotiug room, as it was
such a fine specimen ; and I now have
in my room the magnifiont skeleton of
Joiin Uailiousie, ju.. V., No. 75
Lombard street, London, for the bene
fit of science.

TRICKS OX TRWF.LERS,
How Confiding Stranger are Taken
In and Don for In New York dir.
A confidence man tells hows stran
gers are taken in New York as follows :
"Having all things ready," he sayo,"we
go on our 'graft.' We always go to one of
thoflrBt-classhotels.flnd we never pick up
the wrong man. There is no trouble in
telling strangers from city men. It isn't
because they stare at the store win
dows and eigne, for lots of city men do
that ; nor is it always their dress, for
sometimes the countryman swaggers
along in the latest style, But there is
always something about him he can't
disguise which says he's a stranger,
and it s almost as certain that he shows
whether he's crot money or not.
jnow suppose you and 1 are on tne
Kraft. Nobody, though, sees us speaa
to each other or in any wav recognize
one another, but for all of that eaoh of
us keeps a sharp watch on the other,
Maybe.well hang around an hour or
two without finding a sucker. Some'
times we don't find one at all. If we do
find him I give vou a signal you under
stand to watch sharp. I then keep my
eve on the sucker until be goes into the
Btreet. 1 step briskly up in front oi
him as if I bad just turned up, and
hold out my hand with great cordiality,
saying: 'Sly dear Dr. Smith, lm de
lighted to see you. When did you come
to town ? flow did you leave an tne
folks iu Zanesville?' I say all this so
quickly that the suoker hasn't a chance
to open his moutn until 1 get inrougn.
Even then he isn't usually very fast
about it. You see I'm a person of gen
tlemanly appearance and address, and
the sucker don't know at first exactly
what to make of it all. When he does
recover from bis astonishment of course
he says bis name isn't Smith. General
ly, he is very stiff about it. and says
very grandly :' Sir, you are mistaken; I
am not Dr. Smith. Sir.'
"men comes the finest point in our lit
tle game. It used to be that the sucker
would always follow this up by giving
his name and place of residence, but
lately it has to be wormed out of them
in most cases. If he don't give it, why
1 say : Kaally, I beg your pardon,
sir ; l would have sworn you were ur,
Smith ; never saw such a striking re
semblance in my life. Now. really, sir.
if it's not asking too much, I would like
to know your name, so that I may tell
ur. Hmith, the next time I see him, who
his double is.' This always fetches the
sucker. He gets friendly all at once,
and says : Certainly, sir. I am Mr,
Thomas Brown, of Brownsville, Texas,
or whatever it maybe. That s all we
want to know. 1 beg pardon, ond turn
away while he goes oil, and, in a tmn-
ute, has probably forgotten all about
me and Dr. Smith. Now, you have been
standing near all the time, and heard
him give his name, or, if you cidn t,
you push ag.tinst me by accident like,
and 1 tnrow it at you in a sou whisper
without attracting any attention from
the bystanders. Then you go off in an
ordinary way. If the sucker has gone
up street, you go down half a block or
so, and then cross over. You've taken
particular notice of his features and
dress, so that you can't mistake your
mau. As you go down, you look at a
list of national banks you always carry
in your pocket, and get the name of the
President or Oashier of a bank in the
town. When you get on the other side
of the street you walk up briskly, keep
ing your eyes sharp all the time, lou
pass him, and when you get about half
a block above him you cross over and
walk down street and meet him. When
you come up to him you stop an oi a
sudden ; then you seize mm by tne
hand, which you shake like an old
friend and say : Why, my dear Brown,
I'm delighted to see you. How are all
the folks in Brownsville ?' You must
be particular about the last, for it's that
which always gets the sucker. But
you musn't give him a chance to speak
yet ; lor you see be don't know you
how could he, when he never set eyes
on you otilore and you say: "Xsow
that s too bad ; 1 see you don t know
me.' Why, I am Jones, nephew of
Ephraim Jones, Cashier of the national
bank in your town. Don t you remeni'
ber when 1 was at your place ? J. was
a youngster then but I remember you
perfectly.' All this goes to make you
1 solid with the sucker; if you are the
nepnew of a liauk Cashier you must be
somebody, and if you have carried him
in your mind so long vou must be a
clever fellow. But he is forced to say
that he don't remember you, and you
think it's too bad that be should have
forgotton you so entirely. But you
am determined he shan t do it again
for now you ve met him once more
you'll give him cause to remember you,
which you are pretty sure to do, but
not in the way be thinks. You ask him
to take a drink, and teu to one be does
it, for these suckers are nearly always
ready to drink at somebody else s ex
penso. If be goes into the bar-room
with you your 'graft is easy after that:
if be don't you propose a cigar, and if
be dou t smoke you insist it s lunch'
time, and you drag him off with you,
wuei ever you take him you open'on
him at once. You do all the talking.
for it won't do to give him a chance.
except to answer questions, so that you
may nave the 'olhue as to las business.
family, friends, and all that, so that in
a little time you know almost as much
about him and the place where he lives
as he does himself. Then you get to
talking about yourself, and you always
make it appear that you ve been a won
derful lucky fellow, and very soon the
man has so much confidence in you
that you can easily rope him into any
little game you have, and his money is
yours.
The Church of England,
A clergyman in Wales has been
preaching very strongly against the
practice of purchasing church livings,
He said that 6,600 parishes in England
were thus made a subject of bargain
and sale, and be added: " You see
how it is that parishes are saddled with
incumbents who are thoroughly unfit
for their office. A boy rector, for in

A Boy Who Meant Well.
One of Boston's well-established
phv8icians. who scarcely finds rest
night or day. had occasion recently,
says the Journal of that city, to engage
an omce Doy. xue ooy eviaeniiy pos
sessed an energetio disposition, in or
der to give information to his patients
tho doctor recently had some cards
printed, bearing his name, and stating
liis otiice hours, as many callers lost
valuable time while waitinpr. These
cards disappeared with wonderful ra
pidity, so much so that the doctor had
ins suspicions aroused that ins new
boy was using them up in a clandestine
manner. " Jo," eaid the doctor, one
morning, " what has become of those
cards which I placed on the table in the
outer office?" I took 'em," replied
the boy, proudly. "What have you
done with them ?" demanded the doc
tor. " Well, my mother told me before
left home that I must make myself
useful to my employer, and so most
every day when I haven't anything else
to do I just throw them into tho horse
cars as they passed the corner." The
scene that followed cannot be described,
but after tearing out two handfuls ot
his own hair, the doctor took one grab
at the red head of the enterprising lad,
and nearly scalped him. Thus it was
that the well-meant endeavors of the
voung man to promote the interests of
Lis employer were rewarded.
Success Based Upon Merit.
It U a subject of general remark, among
both wholesale and retail drtiKKiuts, that no
medicine introduced to the American public baa
ever gained buco a popularity and met with bo
largo a ttate in an parts oi tne lana. m uie name
length of time, as Dr. Fierce 'h Oolden Medical
Dincovery. This cannot depend upon its having
been more largely advertised than any other
medicine, as such is not the cane. The correct
explanation, we think, is found in the fact that
this medicine produces the mOHt wonderful and
perfect cures of very bad case of bronchial,
throat aud lutirr dineasoH, is undoubtedly the
moat perfect and eflicient remedy for all kinds
of cougns that lias ever been introduced to tne
public, and at the Fame timo poesesses the
groateHt of blood-purifying and strengthening
properties mat medical science lias wen able
to produce, thus rendering it a sovereign reme
dy not only iu the cure of Consumption, tiron
ehitii, Hoarseness and Coughs, but alto for all
diseases of the liver and blood, as scrofulous
diseases, ulotclies, rough skin, ptmpleB, black
specks aud discolorations. It has therefore a
wide) range of application and usefulness, and
it not only gives the most perfect satisfaction
to all who ubo it, but far exceeds tue expecta
tions of the most sanguine, thus eliciting the
loudest praite, aud making permanent living
auvuiuMug uieuiuuis ui an vnu use lb. jor
these reasons it is that there is not perhaps a
druggist in all the vast domain of this Con
tinent, who tries to please his customers and
supply their wants, that does not keep and sell
large quantities of this most valuable medicine.

Dear Sit We take pleasure in paying that

If Johnson's Anodyne Liniment is
half as valuable as people say it is, no family
bhould be without it. Certainly no person, be
he lawyer, doctor, minister, or of any other
profession, should start on a journey without
it. to sailor, neheronan, or woodsman should
be without it. In fact, it is needed wherever
there is an ache, sprain, cut. bruise, cough or
ooia. vom.
Farmers and " Horse Men" are con
tinually inquiring what we know of the utility
or stierviatu cavalry condition focuri,
aud iu reply, we would say, through the
columns of this paper, that we have heard
from hundreds who have used them with grati
fying results j that is also our experience.
