He said it was a nice day, and that we needed a little rain, and that the Arkansas difficulty was a bad thing, and that photographs were three dollars per dozen no orders booked without the cash in advance. He wanted to know if I want ed full length, half length, bust, faee, or what. I told him 'or what,' and he yank ed his camera around, flung the big serenes recklessly about, poked the skylight cur tans this way and that with along stick, and then he ordered me to sit down. 'There that way 1' he said as lie jerked my body to the left and nearly broke, my spine. I went that way, and he Btepped back, closed the left eye and squinted at me. A trifle more !' he said, giving me an other jerk. Then he stepiied back and closed the right eye and squinted again. 'Shulders up !' he taid, as he gave them a twist which made the blades crack. Then he went to the left and squinted and cried 'ah !' and went 10 the right and " squinted aud shouted 'um !' and he came back, seized my head and jerked it up un til I saw stars. 'That's better !' be said, as be walked back to the camera. Hut it wasn't. He came back and told me to twist the right shoulder round up my back, swell out ciy chest aud look straight at a butterfly pinned to a corn starch box, and be as pleasaut as I could. 'Capital 1' he cried as he took a squint through the camera, on!y And he rushed back, jerked my head a little higher, pulled my ears back, brushed up my hair, and said I'd beltter try to smila and look natural. 'How t he dev , I began, but he waved Lis hand, and said I must preserve my placid demeanor. 'Now sit perfectly still and don't move a hair,' be whispered, as he threw a black cloth over the brass bound end of the ca mera, and made a sudden dive into his lit tle dark den. As he rattled the glass and dashed the acids about, I felt a big pain in my spine, a small pain in my chest, an other in my neck, nothcr in my, ribs, but I'd die first, and I kept my gaze on that butterfly. Ready now I' he cried, as he jumped out and put in the glass. My head began to bob, and the butterfly seemed to grow as large as a horse, and he whispered : Ixk out keep perfectly still 1' I braced for a big effort, and he jerked down the cloth. I felt as if the fate of a nation rested on my shoulders, and I stuck to iL He turned away, and I heard bira talking softly to himself. After about an hour ind a half he put up the rag, jerked out the glass and ran into the den. He was out in a moment, and as be held the negative up to the sun he said : Ah! you bobbed your head ; have to try it again !' An Enterprjmno koy. Oue of Bos ton's well-established physicians, who scarcely finds rest night or day, had occa sioa recently to engage an office boy to ojien and shut the door, run errands, and hold his horse. The boy was from the country, and evidently possessed an energetic dis position, with a keen eye to business. In order to give information to his patients, the doctor recently had some cards print ed, bearing his name, and stating his office hours, as many callers lost valuable time while waiting. These cards disappeared with wonderful rapidity, so much so that the doctor had his suspicion aroused that his new boy was using them up in a clan destine manner. 'Jo,' said the doctor one morning, 'what has become of those cards which I placed on the table in the outer office V 'Cards, sir V repeated the boy, Yes, cards,' reiterated the doctor. 'I took 'em,' replied the boy, proudly. 'What have you done with them ?' demanded the doctor. ' Well my mother told me before I left home that I must make myself useful to my employer, and so most every day when I liadn't. anything else to do, I just threw them into the horse cars as they pass the corner.' The scene that followed can not be dcscrilicd, but after tearing out two haiidf'uls of 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 young roan to promote the interests of his employ er were rewarded. Burton Journal. TVjiy IIe Didn't Marry Her. In the course of a recent case of a breach of prom ise of marriage, the father of the rejected young lady made a somewhat amusing dis closure. He had had a meeting with the defendent, and while-on his journey he drew up on the back of a railroad guide which was produced in court the follow ing interrogatories which he at the inter view administered to the erring swain, as well as tlie latter's answers to them : Have you ever said anything to Mary of a change in your feelings towards her ?' Xo.' 'Has there been anything in her letters to indicate a change of feeling on her purl ?' Xo.' Ha anything been said or 0 me by Mary to warrant any change in your feelings towards ber V '.No.' 'Has any rumor, report or letter been received by any of your friends, or anything been aaid or done by Mary calculated to offend you or yours 1" 'No.' Has any gossiping story reached you affecting Mary i" 'Noth of the kind.' 'Have you made any other engagementor got into any entanglement ?' No.' 'What is there to prevent your ful filling your engagement ?' 'There is one thing, and that is I have discovered that aha does not take a sufficiently lively in terestiocrictet.' CALDWELL'S WineandlronBillers!

From what we had heard, we expected in some quarters to find some newer strawberries brought prominently forward this year. There has been considerable dullnesa in the "new variety" market the past few years, and it is about the usual tlmt for some novelty to appear. There bare been some comparative novelties in cultivation, aad it waa rather ex pected that some of these would have shone brightly, ut so far as we can learn the best of the season has been again old kinds, some of hich has been before the public for many years. Albany Seedling a variety which nothing but its heavy productiveness pushed into popular favsr does not seem to have borne as abundant ly as usual, while its old competitor, Triomphe de Gand, has well held its ground. Some of the other old-fashioned kinds, which were being gradually let fall, have done o much better us ual, that even the comparatively newer one we referred to have had no show, and on the whole we conclude that for another year more at least, there is no new one to be Very strongly urged. German tnm Telegraph. Gbousd Bonk as a Makcrx. Onr farmers are greatly interested in determining which of the numerous artificial manures now offering in the market, are most valuable for-fertilizing . purposes. It is only by experiments faithfully tried, that satisfactory results can be reached. Mr. William Chalfant, of TJnionville, this eonn- ty, dropped into our office on Friday morning last, and during a conversation upon the crops, we incidentally learned from him Uuxt some 12 years ago he applied 1000 pounds of ground bone, to the acre, upon one-half of a field of ten acres. Upon the other half he applied ordinary stable manure. For the first two years he saw no perceptible Improvement In the crop where the bone was applied, bnt after the lapse of that period of time, the difference was quite percepti ble. For the last six years it has constantly im proved. The field is in with grass this year, and on that portion where the bone was applied the yield of hay is far superior to the other, averaging something over three tons to the acre. Here is something that is of great value to the farmer. If the application of ground bone is as permanent in its results as the experience of Mr. Chalfant would seem to indicate, although it commands $50 a ton, it is nevertheless by far the cheapest manure that can be used. ITsrf Chetter Republican. LMi-Rovrxo Seed Wheat. 1 writer in theifa- ral Xew Yorker, who has been remarkably suc cessful ia the cultivation of wheat as a farm crop, says : It has been my practice for the last eignteen years Jo run my wheat for seed over a . very coarse seed screen, so as to sow none bnt the very largest kernels. By so doing I have improved my wheat so that I have sold nearly all my wheat at home for setd. But 1871 1 hit npon a new plan. I had a piece of Treadwcll wheat that was injured by insects in the previous fall and killed by freezing in the winter, so that there were spots not worth cutting. Alter har vest I observed a 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 winter. I gathered enough ts sow one rod square, from which I realized twenty pounds of wheat, of unusually large, even berry, which was at the ratio of over fifty bushels per acre ; last harvest I had twenty bushels which weighed sixty-six pounds per bushel. It is my opinion that we realize the best crops from the best and most perfect seed in the vegetable as well as the animal kingdom. HOUSEHOLD. Elderberry Bratot. I enclose to you a re ceipt for making elderberry brandy. It will be found a valuable remedy in cases of dysentery and weakness, which so many persons suffer with during the summer months: Select the ripest elderberries yon can lad, snd after picking them from the stems, to five quarts of berries add two quarts of water, boil well ; then mash and strain through eolaader. After all the juice is extracted, add two quarts of Wa ter, half an ounce of whole cloves, half an ounce of whole allspice, two grated nutmegs, one table spooniul of powdered ginger, one do. of cinna mon, a little lemon and orange peeling. "Boil ail well three hours over a slow fire, then add five pounds of sugar; after cooling strain through a flannel bag, then add two quarts of the best Monongahela whiskey, or good brandy, accord to taste. The above will keep for years, and will be found a wholesome drink and an excellent medi cine, which few will refuse to aceept. German totnt Telegraph. C'lxasiso Kid Gloves During the warn weather kid gloves are easily soiled, particularly as the prevailing colors are quite light, and as it costs some time and money to have them cleaned at the dyer's, we let onr readers into the secret of cleaning them at home, which ean be done just as well as if paid for outside. Take a little sweet milk and a piece of white or brown soap. Fold a clean towel three or four times, spread it over, jour dress and spread ont the glove smooth ly upon It. . Take a large piece of white flannel, dip it into the milk, then rub it upon the soap and rub the glove downward toward the fingers, holding the wrist of it by the left hand. Con tinue this process until the glove, if white, looks of a dingy yellow, bnt if colored looks dark and entirely spoiled. Now let it dry and then put it on your hand, and it will be soft, smooth, glossy and clean. Take care, however, to omit no part of the glove in rubbing it, and see that all the soiled parts are thoroughly cleaned. This pro cess sppliss only to white and colored kid gloves. For black gloves that are soiled, turned white and otherwise injured, take a teaspoonful of salad oil, drop a few drops of ink into it, and rub it all over the gloves with the tip ef a feath er ; then let them dry in the sun. White kid boots and slippers can also be cleaned by the first process to look "as good as new," and black kid boots and slippers can be restored to their pristine gloss by the latter method. From. Wood's Household Magazine. Arrowroot Wixe Jelly. 1 cup boiling wa water ; 3 heaping teaspoonfuls arrowroot ; 2 heaping teaspoonfuls white sugar ; 1 tables poon ful brandy, or 3 tables poonfuls of wine. An ex cellent corrective to weak bowels. India Meal Gruel. 3 quarts of boiling wa ter; 1 cup of Indian meal, and 1 tablespoon ful flour, wet up with cold water ; salt to taste and, if yon like, sugar and nutmeg. Wet the meal and flour to a smoothe paste, and stir into the water while it is actually boiling. Boil slow ly half an hour, stirring up well from the bot tom. Season with salt to taste. Some sweeten it, but I like it better with a little pepper added to the salt. If a carthartic is desired, omit the wheat flour altogether. Milk asd Rice Gruel. 1 quart boiling milk; 2 tablespoon fuls (heaping) of ground rice, wet with cold milk ; one saltspoonful of salt. Stir in the rice-paste and boil ten minutes, stirring all the while. Season with sugar aid nutmeg, and eat warm with cream. Dried Flock roa Teething Cho-due. 1 cup of flour, tied in a stout muslin bag and dropped into cold water, then set over the fire. Boil three hours steadily. Turn out the flour ball and dry in the hot sun all day ; or, if yon need it at once, dry in a moderate oven without shutting the door.' Pasada. 0 Beaton crackers, split ; 2 table- spoonfuls white sugar ; a good pinch of salt, and a little nntmeg ; enough boiling water to covar them well. Split the crackers, and pile in a bowl In layers, salt and sugar scattered among them. Cover with boiling water and set on the hearth, with a close top over the bowl, for at least one hour. The crackers should be almost clear and soft as jelly, but not broken. Eat from the bowl, with more sugar sprinkled in it if yoa wish it. If properly made, this pana da is very nice. Chicken Jelly. Half a raw chicken, pound ed with a mallet, bones and meat together. Plenty of cold water to cover it well about a quart. Beat slowly in a covered vessel, and let it simmer until the meat ia in white rags and the liquid reduced one-half. Strain and press, first through a cullender, then through a coarse cloth. Salt to taste, and pepper, if yon think best ; re turn to the fire, and simmer five minuter longer. Skim when cool. Give to the patient cold just from the ice with unleavened wafers. Keep on the ice. Ton can make into sandwiches by patting the Jelly between thin slices of bread spread lightly with butter.
