Mosquitoes. To clear a room of
mosquitoes, take of gum camphor a
piece about one-thi'd the size of an
egg, and evaporate it by placing it in a
tin vessel and LolJvag it over a lamp
or candle, taking care that it does not
ignite ; the smoke will soon fill the
room ami expel the mosquitoes. One
night, rot long since, I was terribly an
noyed by them, when I thought of and
tried the above, after which I neither
saw nor heard them that night, and next
morning there was not one to be found
in the room. .
Fowl in the Hone-Stable.
Fowls should never be permitted to
have access to the horse-stable, nor the
feed room, nor the hay mow. Their
rooms should be entirely separate from
the stable, so that they may not always
bo ready to slip in whenover a door 'is
opened ; and that the vermin which in
fest poultry may not reach horses and
cattle.
It is a well-known fact that fowls of
all kinds frequently drop a very sordid,
offensive, clammy, viscous odor ; and
when allowed to go on the bay mow, or
in the feeding room, or anywhere in
the barn, they damage more fodder than
we are wont to spopose. We wou'd as
soon allow fow's to live in tbe kitchen,
and to hop on ti e dinner Ja'o'e whi'e we
are eating, and to roost on oar bed
stead as to allow them to have iree ac
cess to the hor-.e-3table and barn.

Fruit Garden.
Tick off all deformed fruit on dwarf
trees, and also thin out where too
thick.
Use sulphur on grape vines as soon
as mildew appears. Tie the vines to
trellises or stakes.
Allow only three or four blackberry
canes to grow, and pinch these off as
soon as they reach a height of five or
six feet, and stop the laterals when
eighteen inches long. Allow the fruit
to lemain on until thoroughly ripe
when for family use ; for marketing
pick before fully ripe.
Cut out the old fruiting canes as soon
as they have finished bearing, and ap
ply a dressing of manure, forked in be
tween the rows.
Remove the mulch from the old
strawberry beds, and take out all weeds,
and cut off all runners not needed for
farming now plants. The best manure
for newly planted beds is either wood
ashes, or ground bone raked in ; if sta
ble manure is used it should be well
rotted, or else it will bring in an abund
ance of weeds.

To Take the Oitor Out of Milk.
One of the difficulties the milkman
and the cheese factory have to contend
with is the "cow.v"odor in freshly
drawn milk. It is worse evqn than the
animal heat, or rather more troublesome
to get rid of. It is much more percep
tible in hot weather than it is in cold.
and varies in intensity with the health
and condition of the cow. To remedy
this, an inventor has contrived the fol
lowing : it is a tin pail, the bottom of
which is perforated with one or two
rows of holes. The milk is turned
through a strainer fastened over the
top, and it comes out through the holes,
It starts in streams, but before it gets
down a foot or 15 inches it is separated
into drops and all aerated. All know
what a deodorizer pure air is. Almost
any farmer can get up a simple arrange
ment which will serve the purpose very
well ; or, if he can't do it himself, he
can go to the tinman and get him to
punch holes in the bottom of a pail and
bang it over a can or other vessel, so
that in dropping down through the air
it will be thoroughly aerated ; bnt it
must be in pure air. The air of a filthy
cow-nouse wiu not ao it.
COMMERCIAL COMBINATIONS.
The Mania for Association, and What It
If Doing.
It Is interesting, and not a little curi
ous, says the New York Times, to no
tice now rapidly our people are develop
ing plans for consolidation, co-operation,
and combined Interest There are
combinations of producers and combi
nations of consumers. The railroad
companies make a ring to keep up rates
of freight ; the grain-farmers and deal
ers make another ring to compel lower
charges. Working men combine to
force higher wages and fewer hours of
labor ; master mechanics form an asso
ciation to protect themselves against
what they consider to be extravagant
demands. Laborers ont of employment
organize an industrial society to pro
duce and sell the work of their hands ;
consumers associate themselves to
gether to buy what they want at whole
sale prices. Exactly where this is to
end none can toll. It is pretty evident
that the tendency of the times is toward
a condition that may be described as
armed observation. The combinations
are no longer for mutual protection
merely ; tuey are lor aggressive pur
poses.
A very good example of this is found
in the organization of a body known as
the "Sovereigns of Industry." This
is an association founded on the same
principles as that which underlaid the
Protective Union." a societv well
known throughout New England some
twenty-five years ago. The Protective
Union was made uo of heads of fami
lies, who employed a purchasing agent,
usually one of their own number, who
bought for the union, at wholesale
prices, such articles of home consump
tion as could be kept in store without
danger of loss by decay. These were
retailed to members at cost price, the
necessary expenses only being added
thereto. Probably some of these unions
are yet in existence, but in many in
stances they failed on account of losses
from dishonest agents and non-paying
members. The Sovereigns of Industry
high-sounding title propose to emu
late the Union and the I'atrons of Hus
bandry in doing away with middle-men
and their profits. In Massachusetts,
where this organization has begun its
operations, every species of goods will
be embraced in the catalogtie of pur
chases made directly for the consnmer.
For example, a " Sovereign " is to be
entitled to a discount of six per cent.
on toe wholesale price of clothing, pio
vided he buys of a dealer with whom
his Executive Council has made
treaty, his only credentials being his
certificate of membership certificate
of soveroingty, wo suppose we should
say. The Executive Council agrees
with various dealers to send the ' Sov
ereigns " to their establishments for
goods : and the dealers consent to the
discount for the sake of securing a large
number of customers.
In this way, it is said, discounts of
various rates are to be procured for the
" sovereigns on flour, groceries, coal.
dry goods, fureiiure, crockery, stoves
and tirware, a"d even pianos and melo-
deons. We do rot understand that
there is a b'mi, to the membership, nor
any speo-al o-.'al'hcatjon trertfor ; ac
cordingly we are rod surprised at being
told thav the orxkr is iac; easing rapidly
thrjui; lio.it the country. The only
wonder is r'at everybody doe3 not join
it as soon a3 tree is a cbs ce. We can
oaly guess what Ida lesult will be when
eveijbody en buy everjtir'ai; at a
slight advar co oi first cost. It is pretty
evident that we shall then be in the
couOition of t:t colony of shipwrecked
Yankees, who mace their living on a
desert islaud by swapping jack-knives
with each other.
I; is oaly necessary to refer to this
latest industrial " scheme to show
that it is as posu'ble for one class of
ruonopo,'V,s to go to extremes as an
other. Four or five wealthy corpora
tions comb'ne to puv up tue price of
coal. Thfct his been done Mrs sum
mer, and there is no apparent ?egal
remedy ogaiiibt exioitio.i. Eat how
abou a tomoinat'oi of bijcklpers to
put up the nr.'ce o? their lubo.. ? We
must have tve fuel and we mut.t Ii.-.ve
bricks laid. Each o iiaviiza,ioa is
taking advantage of the public neces
sity, and the result in each case only il
lustrates the general principle, which,
if universally carried out, would bring
us into inextricable confusion. When
labor, in all its branches, is thoroughly
organized on one side, capital will be as
effectually associated on the other side.
The producer will be opposed by the
combined consumers ; the buyers will
constitute one wen-guarded phalanx,
and the sellers will be organized into
another. Society, industrial and com
mercial, will be divided into hostile
cainpi. Of course, there are certain
laws of trade and political economy
that will prevent such a disaster ; but it
is only necessary to indicate the drift
of things to show how false is the prin
ciple on which most of these latter-day
combinations are formed. In a higher
state of life than we have now, monop
olies, rings, and " corners" will be im
possible. Meantime it is the duty of
every honest citizen to be careful as to
all such combinations. Mutual confi
dence is the basis of all social pros
perity. It will be a bad day for all of
us when we find society armed against
itself and associated in cliques for ag
gressive purposes rather than for coun
sel, mutual support, and rational ez
ohange of opinions.
The Hat. There is probably noth
ing else on earth that will roll like a
bat. A guest of wind gets under your
tile, and before you realize the extent
of the catastrophe, you see it striking
a bee line for the nearest puddle of
water, into which it settles, with an in
difference that is highly exasperating.
No man ever yet caught his hat until it
got ready to atop, which is, when it
brings up under the fence, or when he
drives it into the mud with his foot.

A COLLEGE PRANK,
What Came of It The Son of a Promi
nent Indiana Family a Gonvlet In a
Penitentiary,'
An affecting incident ooenrred re
cently in the Jeffersonville penitentiary.
A lady irom the central part of Indiana
had accepted an invitation to take a
stroll through the prison. In company
with Beveral others she was shown the
various departments, and as the party
proceeded, occasionally an allusion
would be made by the guard to the
more notable of the prisoners within
the high walls.
In going through one of the rooms, a
young man in full convict costume was
observed standing over a box which had
just been opened. One of the party re
marked that the box contained a tempt
ing lot of cakes, iellies. and confections.
The guard casually rejoined that " that
was a sad case." The young man hap
pening to hear the conversation, looked
ub and observed the persons in the
room. He was about to resume his
work of unpacking the box when his
eye fell npon the lady referred to above.
With a cry, partly of joy and partly of
grief, he rusjied towards her and kissed
her before either she or the others
could recever from thoir astonishment.
Seeing the general surprise ho ex
claimed, " Why, don't yon know me?
You are Eddie C 'smother." The
lady then recognized in the convict a
young man about eighteen years old,
from the citv in which she resided. He
had been convicted of burglary about
three months before and had been
sentenced for two years to -the State
penitentiary.
His case was a peculiarly sad one
He was connected with one of the best
families in his section, and was a young
man of ereat promise, lie was gifted
with an unusual inventive faculty, and
was fond of playing all sorts of pranks,
The town in which wo lived was more
of a country village than a city, and
was but a abort distance from a neigh
boring -town of about the same size.
Together with a number of college com
panions, he organized a band of "Mo-
docs." of which he was chosen leader,
They made frequent excursions at night
about the country, doing nothing for
which they could be held amenable be
fore a court of law. They always went
out on a professional frolic, intending
only to have fun. Ono night they con
eluded to visit the neighboring town
and enter the store of a certain man
and take some articles, conceal them.
and after the excitement would have
subsided, to return them. In order to
effect their design, their leader invent
ed a number of keys to fit the locks of
the store, and. on the night appointed,
the boys went to the town, entered the
store and taok out some boots and
other articles of small value. The
theft was of course discovered the next
day by the proprietor, and the authori
ties notified.
One of the boys engaged in the
affair, a day or two afterward made
some mention of the affair to outside
persons, and as soon as the report be
came generally known, the whole party
was arrested on the charge of burglary
As soon as they were taken into cus
tody, the property stolen was given up
uninjured. The trial came off at the
ensuing term of the Criminal Court,
and the indictments against them were
all quashed, except that against their
leader. The inry could, 01 course, re
turn no other verdict than guilty, al
though every legal means were used to
effect his discharge, lie was conse
quently taken from the college he was
attending and sent to prison. Ti?ere
wa3 great sympathy excited in hi3 be
half among people to whom he was
known. The ludy who rfcoguized him
at the prison, was one of the most in
timate friends of his family, and had
known him from infancy. On beiig
asked about the contents of the box, he
rep,;ed that his mother, at intervals of
two or three weeks would send him all
sores of delicacies from the home table.
He was veiy despondent, and wept bit
terly when the lady left him, beaiing
messages from him to tho30 at home.

A Poor Time to Find Them.
It is a town on a railroad running out
of Detroit, and it never had a paper.
A man went up there to start one.
Upon his arrival he found a great ab
sence of sidewalks, a hotel where the
patrons helped themselves, and the only
signs of life on the main street were a
lame horse and two children playing in
the road. He had been recommended
to several citizens, who were anxious
for the paper, and who would assist in
starting it, ana after searching around
the hotel for a while he found a boy
mending a horse blanket in the ladies
sitting room. "Where's Mr. ?"
inquired the editor, mentioning the
name of tne nrsc citzen on his list.
" Qone to the dog-fight," answered the
boy, not even looking up. " And
where's Mr. ?" asked the editor,
"Gone to the dog-fight," answered the
boy. "And Mr. ?" "Gone to the
doff-fieht." "And Mr. ?" "Well.
he's down thar." "And Mr. ?"
" Same place," answered the lad. There
was one more name on the paper, and
the editor waited a moment and in
quired for its owner. " Saw him to the
dog-fip-ht," answered the boy. " Bee
here, bub," said the irritated editor,
"can you tell me if there is any resi
dent of this town who didn't go down
to that dog-fight ? I've got important
business with tbe head men, and I want
to find 'em." The boy shook his head
in a solemn sort of way and replied :
" It's a poor time to find the head men
of this town when old Mt. Clemmens
sends her fighting dorg down here to
clean our prize anamul out I You'd bet

A Mother's Holy Love.
The excitement that existed in Thi'a
delphia concerning the case of the kid
napped child, says Max Adelc, extend
ed to all classes, and every mother in
the city was for a timo so wrought up
upon the subject that she could hnrdly
be induced to permit her children to go
out of her sight. Gillespie lives on
Tenth street, in the same row with
Mrs. Maginnis. He moved in a few
days ago, and Mrs. Maginnis had not
had an opportunity to become ac
quainted with him. He is very near-
ei?hted, and, when he came home the
other aitarnoon, he thought he saw his
boy playing in the gutter, and he ap
proached the youngster with the intent
to pick him up and carry him into the
house. The fact, however, was that it
was Mrs. Maginnis s boy, and that esti
mable woman was watching him with
one eye while the other one rested upon
the second story window which she was
washing. When she saw tmlespie
seize the child she knew at once that
the kidnapper had come, and as Gilles
pie walked off with the booty under his
arm a red-haired woman, in a condition
of frantic excitement, might have been
seen shooting down stairs and through
the front door with the velocity of
light. Gillespie discovered his mistake
just as he caught sightof the infuriated
Maginnis approaching him, and, appre
hending trouble, he dropped the child
and ran. By the time they had gone
around the block twice, Gillespie had
not only Mrs. Maginnis and six police
men at his heels, but l,UU other people
and half a hundred dogs. At last he
darted up an alley and- endeavored to
I'ump over his back fence, but just as
le reached the top the avenging Magin
nis arrived and caught him by the legs,
and before he could explain himself the
policemen had hammered him consid
erably, and four of the dogs had bitten
chops out of his legs. He is in bed
yet, and will probably not be around
again till the bumps on his head sub
side, and the dog-bites heal

He Knew.
There ere a number of Americans in
Paris, and among them, Brown. He
knows less about tbe French language
than he does about the man iu the
moon. The other evening he concluded
to go to trie circus. tie vent to a
hack driver and began a series of mo
tions that looked very much as if he had
performed the geometrical problem of
squaring a circle, and was trying to
demonstrate it to " cabby." He whirl
ed on his heel, threw his arm around.
described a circle with his hand, and
Dointed toward the Cliamu Elvsees.
The driver pushed his hat back, put
his whip under his arm, and gave close
attention. After Brown had exhausted
himself, the Frenchman scratched his
head a moment, and said : " Och, and
it is the circus you want to go to ; and

railroad PcoiJeTii,s, anH 4 ' doctors had
to take e;-- cwn phyb'o beiore admin'
isterirg t to ibeir patieoi',. ewer peo
pie woulu Vo poiaoped. Dr. Joseph
Wal've'-, o' California, took ibis course
when he flr-st compounded tle famous
Vinegar E iters, whicb siow rank as an
inestimable household rerrecfy in all
parts of tbe United States. He healed
himself witu this specific beiore he
offered it to tho world. He introduced
it with a simple statement o" tbe man
ner in which be had discovered its vege
table ineredients and been cured, while
wandering, sick ard poor, among tbe
California tribes. He stated what the
preparation had done for himself, and a
few suflerers from dyspepsia, Dinons
ness, rheumatism, lung diseases, and
many other prevalent disorders, ue
tieved him, tried tho new restorative
and were more than satisfied with the
results. In this way the salo of the
Vinegar Bitters beeau, and wo mention
the fact as an evidence- that iu this ago
of intelligence and inquiry, nothing
that is really valuable to mankind can
prove a pecuniary failure even though
it may lack the help of capital and have
to ngnt its way against poweriui op
posing interests. Within two or three
months after its introduction, the ar
ticle became self-supporting, and it
now yields a magnificent annual reve-
ue. Com.
The heat of summer, as well as the
sudden change of temporature incident to
autumn, coupled with the una of unripe vege
tables and fruits and other unwholeaome
articles of food, result every season iu pro
ducing much suffering from DiarrUasa, Dysen
tery , luoiera Morbus, luuo suu inner uvi nugo
meuts of the stomach and bowels. A remedy
that will promptly relieve these sufferings and
restore tone and normal action to the relaxed
and debiUtated alimentary canal, is surely a
boon to the alHicted. Dr. It. V. Tierce, whose
Family Medicines have acquired a world-wide
reputation, by long study and careful chemical
exoeriments has succeeded iu extracting, by a
cold process, from Smart-Weed or Water
Pepper, (that modest little plant seen in wet
grounds by the roadside and in neglected
grounds and pasture neldu),a remedial principle
which, when skilfully combined with the ex
tract of Jamaica Ginger and other pleasant
modifying agents, in what ho calls his Com
pound Extract of Smart-Weed, forms a most
reliable specific for all such derangements and
sufferings. It is nleasant and safe to take, yet
powerful to cure. Its wonderful efheacy is a
further confirmation of the Doctor's idea that
Qod has caused to grow, iu each climate and
region, those medicinal plants best calculated
for the cure of the diseases that prevail iu the
section nf nnnntrv where those Dlants are
found that " the leaves were for the healing
of the nations," and that the fewer far-fetched
remedies we employ .the better, if we would
tuorouL'hlv investigate and understand those
we have at home. The Doctor's Extract of
Smart-Weed is sold by druggists generally.

Dr. J. Walker's C'nlii'orniii Vin
egar Bitters are a purely Vcgctabfa
preparation, mado chiefly from tho na
tive herbs found on tho lower ranges of
the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
nia, the medicinal properties of which
are extracted therefrom without the uso
of Alcohol. Tho question is almost
daily asked, "What is tho cause of tho
unparalleled success of Vinegar Bit-
tERST" Our answer is, tnat tney romova
the causa of disease, and tho patient re
covers his health. They are the great
blood purifier and a lifc-givinc principle,
a perfect Kenovator and Invigorator
of tho system. Never before in tha
history of tho world has a medicine boon
compounded possessing; me rcmnrKiwm
