A Jwriter in tho Prexbntrrim nays:
Thure are so many of them on the nea of
liife. Tbey come to na when out on the
waters or on the shore. They come in
the morning of life, or noontide, or at
midnight all the same. Sometimes, like
the billows which break againut a rocky
shore, they come with a force which will
be heard and noticed. Again, they
come softly, quietly, peacefully, like
waves which wash the shore in the sun
shine or play around a ' vessel on a calm
sea, and U(tt as much we need to look
Ont for the gentle waves as for the angry
billew. Juntas often an the OT1A harms
ob as the other. An old seaman, a wise
bather, is always on the outlook. He
Knows that forewarned is forearmed. It
is only children and fools who do not
mm ttoeir Bails before the wind, who do
not look out for breakers on a rocky
shore, or who go out to bathe in a storm,
or who sit quietly on a smooth beach at
incoming title. But there are a good
many people who have passed their
childhood, and who are not counted as
fools, who on the voyage of life never
mm rneir sails before the wind, be it
ever so boisterous and threatening; who
never think of looking for breakers, be
the coast ever so rocky; and who, though
never having learned to swim, go ont
on a stormy, unknown const, beyond
their depth, or sit on the smooth beach
idly, and let the tide of prosperity fl ow
around and over them till its sunshiny
waves become great breakers between
them and the green land and loved ones
beyond.

Extraordinary Resuscitation from Ap

A religious custom has just prevented a

singular to relate, this is the second
time the same thing has happened to
the same person. About ten years ago

with tjphus fever. After a fortnirrht.'a
sickness she appeared to expire, and her
jjniems, us a renei to tneir sorrow, left
the house, leaving two of the girl's
uuuis io superintend tne luneral. As
the family belonged to the reformed re

wiiu me usual custom, to wash the body
before placing it in the shroud. While
the water was warniinsr one of the aunts
proposed that it should be made quite

Strange Professions,
Among the curiosities of the Indian
census are the extraordinary professions
Which some of her majesty's subjects
declare they pursue. In Allahabad no
fewer than 974 at a former census de
ecribed themselves as"low blackguards,"
a cauing wnicn, nowever, is only too
common elsewhere than in Allahabad,
but the professional ' painters of horses
witn spots" and the "hereditary clerks
who pray to their inkhorns" are surely
, peculiar to India. In Kussia, however,
the progress of civilization has devel
oped a new profession which it would
be difficult to match even in India. Its
specialty is the burning of insured
premises. The St. Petersburg insurance
companies havj just captured one of
three members of this profession who
have carried on this lucrative vocation
for several years. They were in the
habit of arranging for conflagrations with
the owners of insured premises. On
being guaranteed twenty per cent, of
the insurance money they set fire to the
houses, which, being mostly built of
wood, burned easily enough. They
might have been earning their twenty
per cent, to-day but for the astuteness
of the Libau police, who set a trap for
them into which they fell, much to the
delight of the insurance companies.' It
is possible enough that members of this
scandalous profession are not unknown
in other countries besides Russia.
Frauds against insurance companies are
difficult to detect even when the in
sured fires his own property; but when
the work is undertaken by a professional
fire-raiser detection becomes almost impossible.
The Wonderful Hank of Morocco,'
U. Woodman gives this reminiscence
in the Erpresman' Monthly . Adams &
Co. and the Adams express company
did a very profitable business in receiv
ing from brokers and others notes of
the several banks of the country and
presenting them for redemption, charg
ing double rates for this business. At
that time there were a class of banks in
Indiana known as free banks. Any per
son who could purchase 50,000 worth
of bonds could deposit them wilh the
auditor of state and receive that amount
in bank notes ready for circulation
when signed by the bank's president
and cashier, and these notes were re
deemable only at the counter of the
bank. It was an object, therefore, to
the bankers to place the bank where it
would be difficult to get at, and then
loan ont its notes and let them circulate
as money. Under instructions I kept
three or four men ready to start on a
moment's notice to hunt up thes banks
and present their notes. Many of them
were located in towns which had no ex
istence except on paper, and were very
difficult to find. At one time when all
my men were away, except one who was
sick, I received a package containing
81,000 on the bank of Morocco. This
bank, I learned from the state auditor.
was located on the Grand Prairie, about
fifty miles west of Lafayette and one
hundred and twenty-five" miles from
Indianapolis. The Lafayette and Indi
anapolis railroad was "then runniug
about fifty miles of that distance, and
the rest of the way bad to be traveled on
horseback and coach. Procuring a
horso at Lafayette, I staitei West
through the prairie with scarcely a track
to guide me, with $1,000 in my pocket,
and I did not find a person who had
ever henrd of Morocco until I reached
the little town of l.ennselaer, where I
finally got some information.
Pushing on until nearly night I saw
before me two log buildings, and riding
up to one, which proved to be a black
smith shop, I inquired the way to Mor
occo. The smith told mo I was already
in the town, and I inquired where the
bank was located. He informed me
that he kept the bank in his house, and
asked what I wanted. I told him. It
was then dark, and I had no alternative
but to stay with him all night, though
he told me his accommodations for
travelers were very poor. He turned
my horse out on the prairie to craze.
aud I got a very good supper at his
house. It was very warm, and he made
a bed on the prairie, where we both
slept. I wis a little uneasy about sleep
ing out on the open plain with money
in my pocket, and he offered to put it, in
the bank and did so. In the morning
after a very comfortable breakfast, we
proceeded to the business for which I
came. He went to one corner of the
log cabin and commenced taking pota
toes out ot a barrel, and after taking
out a bushel or more, produced a bag of
gold which was marked $5,000 and
counted out fifty $20 gold pieces, and
handed them to me and put the notes
and his bag of gold back into the barrel
and covered with the potatoes. After
receiving my money I asked him for his
bill for meals, lodging and horse feed,
but he refused to take anything and re
marked : "You are the first person who
ever found the Bank of Morocco, and if
you will keep its location to yourself I
am satisfied." I promised to do so and
left for home. Mr. Dunn auditor of
state, told me afterward that several
persons had tried to find the Bank of
Morocco, but he thought I was the only
uuo uu iiau succeeded.
How to Detect Adulterated Coifce.
Ground coffee affords a field for adul
teration, and for this purpose chicory,
carrots, caramel, date seeds, etc., ale
tho substances most commonly used.
Take a little of the coffee and press it
between the fingers, or give it a squeeze
in the paper in which it is bought; if
genuine it will not form a coherent mats.
as coffee grains are hard and do not
readily adhere to each other; but if the
grains stick to each other and form a
sort of " cake," we mav be pretty sure
ci adulteration in the shape of chicorv.
for the grains of chicory are softer and
more open, and adhere without diihcul
ty when squeezed.
Again, ii we piace a lew grains m a
saucer and moisten them with a little
cold water, chicory will very quickly be
come soft like bread-crumbs, while
coilee will take a long time to soften.
A third test: take a wine glass or a
tumbler full of water and gently drop a
pinch of ground coffee on the surface
of the water without stirring or agitat
ing; genuine coffee will float for some
time, while chicory or any other soft
root will soon sink, and chicory or cara
mel will cause a yellowish or brownish
color to diffuse rapidly throucrh the
water, while pure coffee will (rive no
sensible tint under such circumstances
for a considerable length of time.
" Coffee mixtures" or "coffee improv
ers 'should be avoided. They seldom
consist of anything but chicory and
caramel. Satt itarian.
Words of Courage.
A great deal of talent is lost to the
world for the want of a little courage.
Every day sends to the grave a number
of obscure men who have only remained
in obscurity because their timidity has
prevented their making the first effort,
and who, if they could have been in
duced to begin, would in all probabil
ity have gone great lengths in the career
of fame. The fact is, in order to do
anything in this world that is worth
doing, we must not stand shiverim? on
the brink, and think of the cold and
danger, but jump in and scramble as we
can. It will not do to bo perpetually
calculating risks and adjusting nice
chances. It did very well before the
flood, when a man could consult his
friends upon a publication of one hun
dred and fifty years, and then live to Bee
its successes six or seven centuries af
terward; but at present a man waits and
doubts, and hesitates, and consults his
brother, and his uncle, and his particu
lar friends, till one day he finds that he
is sixty yeard of age; that he has lost
so much time in consulting first cousins
and particular friends that he has no
time left to follow their advice. There
is such little time for over-squeamish-
ness at present, the opportunity so easily
slips away, the very period of his life at
wnicn man chooses to venture, if ever,
is so confined, that it is no bad rule to
preach up the necessity, such instances,
of a little violence done to f eelings. and
of efforts made in defiance of strict and
sober calculation.
" If you find a locomotive rushing at
you," says an authority, ' spring into
the air and come down on the cow
catcher." This might injure the cow
catcher. A better way is to spring into
the air and let the train pass under you.
It requires a littla practice at first.

our larger villages the absence of bloom

But there has not been an equal im-

It is very rare to find one entirely free
from weeds, and some have positively
as many weeds as vegetables. Tho

Farmers' Maxims.
Thinking about a piece of corn adds
five bushels to the acre, sometimes ten.
f he fifth rail of a fence is generally
worth more than the other four.
Weeds in a com and potato field are
like notes on interest at twenty per cent.
If a particular production is all the

Fall and winter evenings are the most

it is never best to overdue economy
by letting hogs or geese habitually eat
the grass in the front yard.
Encouraging words will sometimes
make a scythe cut well an hour longer
than it otherwise would.
Gives the boys work, and take pains
to teach them. It is to this source that
we must look for our best farm men.
Cigar smoke in a cornfield may pro
vent the depredations of crows, but it
never fails to make the net yield less.
When a mortgage on a farm is so
heavy that the owner never tries to
lessen or lift it, the sooner he finds a
small place the better.
It is important to get at the bottom
of things, and equally so, whether done
by touch thinking or a subsoil plow.
Some kinds of woodseason better out
of doors than under cover, but it is not
so with the beam and handles of a plow.
Vegetable decay prepares for subse

rotten potatoes end turnips in a cellar
in May.
It is better for a farmer to eat salt on
his potatoes instead.of butter, if the lat
ter is needed to pay an old debt at the
village store.
Every farmer should compete for all the
premiums at the annual fairs in his line
except "the fastest trotter owned and
raised in the county."
Men may deceive each other, but they
can never deceive Mother Earth. Deal
ers may eell sawdust guano at fifty dob
lars a ton, but they cannot count on the
soil as a helper in their imposition.
A very successful farmer once re
marked that "ho fed his land before it
was hungry, rested it before it was
weary and weeded it before it was foul."
There are two things that every far

Tho owner's eye will detect ten needs

Tho leaves of a maple or elm stand

A farmer need never to say, "If I
could only get work I should be happy."
His store never lacks customers. His

Best M nick lug Material.
Mulch is placed about plants to pre
vent the sun from evaporating the mois
ture. In many cases it takes the place
of cultivation. No doubt, if it were
not for the expense and trouble, it
would be more extensively used about
herbaceous plants. We have found in
our trying climate that a fine muloh
of manure, completely covering the
ground, is an excellent thing for bed
ding plants. With trees and shrubs a
serious objection to the use of mulch is
its liabilitv to harbor mice, which mav
injure or destroy the plants, lor straw
v .. .
berries mulch is used to keep the fruit
clean as it ripens, and to protect the
plants in winter and spring. For straw
berries we have had the best success in
applying the mulch quite late in au
tumn, and in leaving the materials thin
enough over the plants to barely
expose a few of the leaves. The more
changeable and severe the season the
greater the need of mulch, and
mulch in generous quantity. There
is a great variety of materials employed
for mulching. I have beard of the use of
beach sand or fine gravel with excellent
results. The inexperienced gardener can
try old clover hay, as I have done, and
get a good crop of thrifty young clover
to kill out the next spring ; or he can
employ rich timothy or June grass, and
soon find the ground seeded with a crop
he was not prepared for. Or, again, if
he like better, in the spring he can
mulch with oat straw not half threshed,
or full of chaff containing oats still
plenty. Then he can dig young oat
plants all summer among the strawber
ries. Digging out the young plants of
clover, grasses, oats, etc., is healthful ex
ercise, and stirring the soil will not
hurt the strawberry plants. I onco tried
all the above methods. I also tried
orest leaves, for autumn mulch, adding
corn stalks to hold them down, and
thought I had a good thing. In spring,
after an open, windy winter, the leaves
were not to be found. A few at a time
they bad blown away.
Having tried all
these to my satisfaction, 1 now prefer
clean straw (old or new) or marsh hay
or corn-fodder cut two inches loug, less
or more. Pine shavings get into the
soil and are a nuisance. The same ob
jection may be urged against tan bark
or any other material which does not
decay readily and help to enrich the
soil. Prof. J. W. Beat.

I apples, plnms, apricots, and. indeed, all

fruits can never wholly take the place
of canned fruits for family use. Glass
jars are preferred by most personw, and
are cheapest in the end. With care
they can be used many years, though
new rubber bands must be procured
when needed. In canning, sugar should
certainly be used, and it should be of
the granulated white crades. as poor
sugar hurts the flavor of the fruit. Tho
rule is to put one-quarter of a pound of

sugar with one pound of fruit, but this

j that fruit is good when canned without

i to be of the best quality, and as
freshly picked as possible. Well-ripened
fruit, not, however, dead-ripe and soft,

j cans are to be filled full, to the very

ward. As a writer on tho subiect said
recently : "Good fruit, put boiling hot
into the perfect cans, filled full and
sealed up at once, will be fresh and pure
when opened, though years later." Sim
ply pouring boiling water over fruit
does not expel the air. Partly filled
fruit jars will spoil. Canned berries are
to be put in a preserving kettle, with
layers of sugar, and boiled from five to
fifteen minutes. The syrup can be bot
tled up, some of it, for other uses.
Some persons prefer to cook berries in
the jars in which they are to be canned.
In this case the jars tilled up with fruit
are set in a wash-boiler, on wooden slats,
so as not to touch tho bottom. Cold water
is ponredin till it comes close to the rims
of the jars, and heated until the fruit is
well cooked, when the fruit in one jar is
used to fill up the others, and they are
sealed and put away. We may add that
glass jars of fruit should be put in a
dry, dark and cool place where the tem
perature is equable throughout the sea
son. Household Hints.
To take grease from floors, rub soft
soap on the spots, then press with a hot
iron.
To take grease from silk, moisten the
spot with chloroform, then rtib with a
cloth until perfectly dry. It will not
injure the most delicate color.
If rats or mice infest any part of your
house find their holes and stuff them
with rags dipped in a strong solnt.ion oi
cayenne pepper. No rodent will ever
take a second nibble at that rag.
An economical housewife will always
buy her soap in largo quantities, cut
each bar in square pieces and store in a
dry place. It lasts better after Shrink
ing. The yellow stain made by the oil
used on sewing machines can be removed
if, before washing in soapsuds, the spot
bo rubbed careiully with a bit of cloth
wet with ammonia.
Always stand a wet umbrella with the
handle down. One trial will convince
you of the rapidity with which it will
drain, and your umbrella will last lon
ger if dried quickly.
HEALTH HINTS.
All experience goes to show that peo
ple are far more liable to contract dis.
ease or contagious fevers on an empty
man with a full stomach.
The only sate and immediato remedy
within the reach of a non-proiessional,
in case of poisoning with prussic acid,
is to pour a stream of cold water from
an elevation upon the head and spine
of the patient.
The majority of people are apt to neg
lect the feet, irequent bathing of the
feet in water in which a small quantity
of borax has bqen placed is conducive
to health and comfort. Ammonia and
bay rum, though cleansing, have a ten
dency to dry tho skin aud close the
pores. Hosiery should be frequently
changed, and the feet, ankles and calves
of the legs annointcd with healing oil or
salve. Never use cheap or highly per
fumed soap, as it has a tendency to dry
and parch the skin, and so close the
pores as to prove very injurious to
health. Castile, olive oil and other vege
table oil soaps are the best for the flesh.
Ihe fhrenrdogical Journal, speaking
of the healthfulness of fruit, says that
when Dr. B. F. Dunkley went to Dunks
burg, Mo., thirty years ago there were
no orchards, and very few vegetables
were raised. The diet of the people
consisted chiefly of corn bread, bacon
and black coffee. Inflammatory dis
eases of the brain, bowels and heart,
and malignant dysentery afflicted the
community and were often attended
with fatal results. Dr. Dunkley told his
patients their blood needed no medi
cine other than vegetable acids, and
ordered them to eat oranges, lemons
and sheep sorrels. Now fruit and gar
den vegetables are abundant, and dis
eases are not of so malignant a type,
and they yield readily to medical treat
ment. Children who eat plentifully of
apples are in excellent health, while
those who eat no fruit are sickly.

all business was suspended for three
