CALDWELL'S
V
The Hot and tiie Skeleton. A phy
sician in New Tork had long been pestered
by little Arabs who came to peddle candy.
At last, when patience had ceased to be a
virtue, he told the boy to go into the yard,
where there was a follow who Lad a sweet
tooth in his head. The young pedler en
ured, and his eyes foil on a grinning ske
leton, swaying and nodding in the breeze.
The boy's hair stood on end, his tongue
was palsied and he dropped his stock in
trade instanler and scampered off ns fast
as his legs could carry him. The doctor,a
kind-hearted man withal, and very tall and
lank, by the way, tearing that he liad car
ried the joke too far, picked up the candy
and ran out, crying, 'Come back, boy;
lucre's nothing here to hurt you.' 'Oh,
no,' said the boy, 'you don't come that
over me ; I kuow you, if have got your
clothes on.'
Sticking to Wiiiskv. While manipu
lating the windless of a well, the other
nisht, a party who had been laying in a
stock of whisky before it was all seized by
the police, let the handle slip when th
bucket was half way up, and naturally en
ou"li received a chuck under the chin that
knocked him over a neighboring fence.
'Sold again,' he muttered, as he climbed to
his feet. 'Might anode hie better than
to hie go foolin' roun' so much water.
Iktlchcr boots I'll stick t'whisky after this.'
A MAN who had been cruel to a horse
was convicted in Little Shasta, California.
The jury fixed the fiuc at one dollar, aud
the justice followed with a speech. 'This
hums tried four times, gentlemen of
flu. iurr ' li Raid, 'and vour the Erst

twelve that's had sense enough to find him
euilty. lut what under heavens did you
make jackasses of yourselves for putting
the fine at one dollar after you d done an
average deccut thiug. 'Taint any of your
business anyway what he's (hied. I'll
w.t- niYpr Mint mvRoIf it'll be sixty dol
lars.'
"And have you no other sons V" asked a
curious lady of a bronzed old sta captain.
'Oh, yes, madam. I have one that lived
in the South Sea Islands for nearly a dozen
years !' 'Really ! Was he bred there, and
what was his taste the sa or laud T 'So,
madam, he wasn't bread, he was meat-
least was the niggers ate him ; and as for
his taste the chief said he lasted of ter
bacccr.' The lady walked to another part
of the ship, and the captaiu smiled nud
took a fresh quid of 'lerbaccer' himself.
Mr sou, you look like a boy who has
been brought up by Affectionate parents,
said a kindly stranger to a golden-haired
child : and the latter, in an excited tone,
exclaimed ; 'Do I V Jut look at my back
'The love that a woman's heart needs' is
the love that is spoken iu deeds,' says a
modern poet. 'Especially,' says Mary
Jane, 'the deeds to a handsome thn-e-story
marble fioul mansion, together with a few
choice corner lots.'
I say, Hill, uidu't your mother say you
couldn't go in a swuum'n unless you
asked your father ?' Oh, yes, but you sec
dad lias the gmit, so there is no use askin
of him, because he couldn't lick me any
way.'
The two richest men now living in A me-
rika, that I know ov, is the one who has
cot the most money, and the other who
wants the least, and the last one is the
one who has got the most money, and the
other who wants the least, and the last one
is tljp happiest of the two. Josh. JiiUina.
A young bachelor who had been ap
pointed sheriff, was called upon to serve
an attachment against a beautiful young
widow. He accordingly called upon her
and said ; '"Madam, I have an attachment
for you.' The widow blushed and said
his attachment had been reciprocated.
Tou don't understand me ; you must pro
ceed to court.' I know it is leap year, sir,
but I prefer you to do the courting.' 'Mrs.
P., this is no time for trilling ; the justice
is waitiug.' 'The justice 1 Why I prefer
a parson.'
Anti -'Local Option' Hecii'e. The
following receipt for making auli-cholera
summer drink, which is said to be a sure
preventive, is published in Kentucky. If
taken a', frequent intervals during the day
it lias a wonderful effect :
Spiritus veni otardi ox. '2 ; Sugardum
Whitcum, Icious Finels, Mintibusqe ; Sil
ecum Pineapplei, Strawberri ; Shakitus
violenter, suckitcr immejiuscum slrawum.
Slightly sarcastic was the clergymau
who paused and addressed a man coming
into church after the sermon had begun,
with the remark, Glad to see you, sir,
come in ; always glad to see those here
late who can't come early.;' aud decidedly
self-possessed was the mau thus addressed,
in the presence of an astonished congrega
tion, as he responded, 'Thank you, would
you favor me with the text ?'
A Female Teach eu iu a school that
stood on the banks of a river once wished
to communicate to her pupils an idea of
faith. While she was trying to explain
the meaning of the word, a small fishing
boat came in view. Seizing upon the in
cident for an illustration, she exclaimed,
'If I were to tell you that there was a leg
of mutton in that boat, you would believe
me, would you not, without even seeing
it yourselves ?' 'Yes, ma'am,' replied the
scholars. 'Well, that is faith.' said the
schoolmistress. The next day, in order to
teEt the recollection of the lesson, fche in
quired, 'What is faith ?' A leg of mut
ton in a boat ?' was answered from all
parts of the schoolroom.
A Negko in a religious gathering prayed
earnestly that he and his colored brethren
might be preserved from what he called
their 'upaettin' sins.' 'IJrudder,' said one
of his friends, at the close of the meeting,
'you ain't got de hang of dat ar word. It's
besettin', not 'upbettin.' 'IJrudder,' re
plied the other, 'if dat's so, it's so. JJut I
was a-prayin' 'Providence to save us from
de sin of intoxicaliou ; an if dat ain't an
upsettin' sin, I dunno what am."
'On Lord ! Thou knowest,' prayed a
Oonnccticnt deacon in church meeting,
'that I am afllicted with a moi-t impious
and depraved son. Thou knowest that he
will swear, and lie and steal, and do all sin
ful things. Thou knowest that on the last
Sabbath day he was seen walking dow i the
principal 6treet in the village, with his
hands in his pockets, whistling the follow
ing ungodly tune' And the congregation
were astounded to bear 'Yankee Doodle"
flow melodiously from the deacon's pursed
up lips.
A divorce was recently granted the
wife in a neighboring State for the cause
that her husband ate, drank, and slept, as
usual, under the same rool with her for
six weeks without once speaking to her all
that time. The fellow was glad to get off
as be staled to tho judge after th case was
disposed of, .That he hadn't a chance during
the whole aix weeks teget in a word edgeways.

Nature's Great Remedy
FOR ALL
THROAT and LUNG
DISEASES ! !
It is the vital principle of the Pine Tree, obtained
by a peculiar process in the distillation of the tar, by
which its. highest medicinal pmpertirs are retiinrf.
Tar even in us crude state has been recommended by
eminent physicians of rvcry school. It is confidently
offered to the afflicted fur the following simple reasons:
X. It ctTFns, -nr fy abruptly stepping the cough
but by dissolving the phlegm and assisting-nature to
throw off the unhealthy matter causing the irritation.
In cases of seated coxsmiTiox it both prolongs and
renders less burdensome the life of the afflicted sufferer.
s. Its healing principle acts upon the irritated aur.
lace of the lungs, penetrating to each, diseased arjt
relieving pain, and subduing inflammation.
3. It fur! pi ks and enhiches tii e blood. Positive
ly curing all humors, front the common riMi-LR or
liRt'pnos to the severest cases of Scrofula. Thousands
of affidavits could be produced from those who have
felt the beneficial effects of Pine Trie Tar Cokdial
in the various diseases arming from imparities op
THR BLOOD.
4. invigorates tbe d;gesthe crgans and restores
the af petite.
All who have known or tried Dr L. Q. C. Wis
hart's remedies require no references from us, but the
names of thousands cured by them can be given to
ny one who-doubts our statement. - lr L. J. C.

which can be cured by a
timely resort to this stand

proved by the hundreds of
testimonials received by the
proprietors. It is acknowl
edged by many prominent
physic-inns to be the mast
reliable preparation ever in
troduced for the relief .and
cure of all Lung complaints,
and is ollered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
of over forty years. "When

'Tis an nse of invention, improvement and skill,
The world's in commotion, ar.a noiuin"; is nm ,
And progress in written wherever we turn
So ! "the bull is kept rollinp;," and each day we
learn
Of some new achievement in science or art ;
Each branch of industry in Tact claims a part.
So each is awarded a prixe from the hands
Of a p'nerous public as merit demands.
So music's department can point, in her pride,
To men or true '.renins, whose fame has -rone
wide
O'er hills and through valleys, in mansions and
and cots.
Well, due are such honors to "limlty t- rltlt,
Whose- Golden Tongue organ stands first in the
land
The ?) as to merit, and first in demand.
Excelline; in sweetness and richness of tone.
Surpassing all others, and Ftaiidin? alone.
Its wortli is acknowledged wherever it is known,
As all will bear witness, and cheerfully one
For equal in workmanship, beauty, desiirn.
Or finish, they challciiirc the best in the line.
Where faces were gloomy, and hearts once were
sad
What homes are now cheerful yes, happy and
glad.
Continue thy mission, thv song 'Golden Tongue,
Hath chains of enchantment lor out aim ior

Pcke Watek fob Milch Cows. A New Jer
sey farmer writing over the Signature of "Agri
cola" says :
"Although water, added 4o milk, may be ob
noxious, proprietors of milch cows cannot expect
that tbe adders will be extended with tbe deli
cious liquid unless the animals can haTe access
to a generous supply of clear water. Dnrlnjr
the sultry days of summer, pure water for cows
is as important as grass. VVlien a cow is thirs
ty, she must be supplied with water, or the pro
cess of concocting wilk will be more or less ar
rested. Hence the quantity of milk will coutinne
to diminish. Soon after a cow has filled herself
with feed of any sort, there will be a demand for
water. But If the animal cannot obtain a sup
ply, the partially masticated feed in tbe rumen
will soon begin to heat and ferment, causing de
rangement of the entire system.
It is bad policy to require milch cows to
drink at ponds of standing water, which is a
prevailing practice in many sections of country.
When animals are allowed to go into the water,
and to stand in it, unless there is a running
stream, the water will soon be fouled and unDt
to drink. In such instances it will only cost a
triflle to dig a shallow well, provide a large
trough, and draw a generous supply every day,
either with a cheap pump or bucket. A pail of
water is as refreshing to a thirsty eoW or horse
as a goblet of ice water to a thirsty laborer."
Tiuvejjno is Farmiso. Did any of yonr
readers ever think of the amount of travel it
takes to raise a crop of corn 7 i never saw an
Illustration in print, and I thought I would give
you one. I have a twenty acre field, forty by
eighty rods. To break this up would take one
hundred and sixty-rive miles ; harrowing it,
about forty miles ; furrowing out, ninety miles ;
planting, forty-five miles, if with planter ; and
if dropped and then covered, ninety miles ; and
for each plowing of two furrows in a row, ninety
miles, or five plowings, four hundred and fifty
miles. Thus, you will see, it takes about eight
or nine hundred miles of travel to raise twenty
acres of corn, not counting going to and return
ing from the field. Besides there is replanting,
thinning, rolling, &e.
Celery. This delicious and valuable plant
can be planted, and ought to be, from now nntil
the first of August. But May is a good time for
the early crop and July for the late crop. It ean
be raised with not much trouble, unless the sea-
sou be very dry and much watering is required :
Dig trenches four feet apart, and one foot deep
and spade wide ; dig up the bottom of the trench
and cover an inch or two with well rotted stable
manure or barn-yard manure ; sprinkle with
salt and chop it and intermix well with the soil
in the bottom of the trench, and let it remain a
week before setting the plant. After a rain
draw your plants, trim the roots and broken and
decayed leaves, cut the tops off nearly half the
length of the stem and plants, water freely, cover
the trenches with bushes for a few days from
the sun ; water every evening nntil they start to
grow. Keep the earth loose aboat the roots and
shave in the sides of the trenches as the plants
grow, taking care not to fill in as high as the top
of the crown of the plants. Never let it suffer
for moisture. Soraestimcs use liquid manure in
the trenches, not on the plants, the same also
with water made brackish with salt. It is a
plant native to the sea coast. An acre in good
celery is worth usually $1,000.
This plant should be grown by everybody more
extensively, because everybody likes it, it sells
hyh and is very valuable for its medical curative
qualities. Those who habitually nse it: fu!!y
appreciate its virtues. One who U reliable, thus
peaks of its great value as a recuperator of
health:
"I have known many men, and women too,
who from various causes had become so much
affected by nervousness that when they stretched
ont their hands they shook like aspen leaves on
windy .ay s, by the moderate use of the blanched
footstalk of celery as a salad became as strong
and steady in limb as other people.
Breaking a Colt. An Ohio editor recently
saw Mr. Bob Stradcr, of Kentucky break a two-
jer.r old colt to harness in half an hour, and
thus tells the story of the way iu which it was
done : The colt had never been bridled. He was
attached to a curricle called a "break-dray," and
put through astonishingly quick. The break
dray is nothing more than a strong broad-tread
dray, with long shafts, tbe tail omitted, and a
spring seat between the wheels. The harness
was strong, and so arranged over the hips as to
prevent the possibility of high kicking, and the
colt was hitched so far from the dray that his
heels could not possibly reach the driver. Tje
process of hitching was, of course, very delicate,
as a colt is excessively ticklish and is apt to let
his heels fly awkwardly.
All being ready, one man held tbe colt, and
another took the seat aud reins. The colt was
then let go to plunge as he pleased. The break
dray, which was so broad that upsetting seemed
out of the question, was pushed upon the colt,
and tbe colt pushed sidewise until he started. A
few plunges settled him. He went as he pleased
up hill and down hill, and so and was tho
roughly broke. The confused and on until he
finally struck a steady, sober trotbewildered
look of that colt was pitifully amusing. Mr.
Bob Strader was giving directions, and upon one
of the breakers raising his hand to slap the colt
to urge him, Mr. Strader said : "Don't do that.
Never strike a colt when yon are breaking him.
Pash him sidewise or anyway. Let him just go
where he will and how he will. Let him fall
down if he will, bnt don't strike him." When
the colt was taken out of tbe shafts he was as
wet as if he bad been in water, and a child could
have handled him. He had not been struck a
blow.
Weigiit or Dbied Apples and Pbacites. Id
the letter from Charles Alden, which ws read
before the late horticultural meeting at Roches
ter, New York, he states that a bushel of apples
weighs fifty pounds ; that the cost of cutting
and preparing a bushel for drying is about fifty
cents, and that a bushel will yield nine dried
pounds, two pounds of which are cores and
skins, which when dried find, a ready market
at six cents per pound, for making jelly without
sugar or hoiliug a new product. One bnshet
gives seven pounds of good dried apples, which
will sell regularly at twenty cents per pound,
making after drying $1.25 per bushel of apples,
with cores and pariugs. Tomatos, being very
watery, yield only three pounds dried pec bushel,
but two dried ounces are found to be equal in
substance to a one quart can, and will make as
much by adding one quart of water, and stewing
properly. The evaporated tomatoes sell for
seventy-five cents per pounds. Peaches yield
seven pounds from a bushel, one pound of which
is skin.
CrcrMiiEB Pickles. The old style of laying
cucumbers down iu brine, then when wanted for
use soaking them ont In a brass kettle to make
them green, is tedions, and I think rather dan
gerous. Now, 1 have good, 'nice, solid pickles
that were put down last summer, and the fol
lowing is my method of preparing them : I pick
from the vines, wash carefully, and when dry
put them in good cider vinegar ; tie a paper over
the top of the jar ; some seal them, but I have
not. I like this way very much.
I101SEIIOI.D.
A Simple Disisfectaxt. One pound of green
copperas costing seven cents, dissolved in one
quart of water, and poured down a water-closet,
will effectually concentrate and destroy tbe foul
est smells. On board ships and steamboats,
about hotels and other public places, there is
nothing so nice to purify the air. Simple green
copperas, dissolved in anything under the bed,
will render a hospital or other places for the
sick, free from unpleasant smells. In 1st mar
kets, slaughter houses, sinks, and wherever
there are offensive gases dissolve copperas and
spriukle it about, and in a few days the smell
will all pass away. If a cat, rat or mouse dies
abou i the house, and sends ofT offensive gas,
place some dissolved copperas in an open vessel
near the place where the nuisance is, and it will
purify the air. Then, keep all clean.
Paste ron Labels o Bottles, &c. An ex
cellent paste for fixing latels ,on glass, wood, or
paper, may be prepared by dissolving 11 parts,
by weight, of common glue, soaked a day in cold
water, 7 parts of gnm arabic, and some rock
c.imly, Iu 56 parts of water, at a gentle heat,
with continued stirring nntil the mass is uniform.
Labels brnshed with this and dried will adhere
firmly, if simply moistened with saliva when
nsed.
