What :s the differem- bvtweeu an over
coat and a baby ? One is what you wear
and the other is what you was.
A Minnesota paper tells a sounding
story of a sixleen-year old boy who lias
''made a violin out of his own head.'
AViien a Chicago niaii pets rich he writes
toea6tern publishing houses and tells them
to send "half a ton of books with gilt on."
That farmer understood human nature
who said : "if you want to keep your boy
at home, don't bear too hard on the grind
stone when he turns the crauk."
A little boy iu Maine enlieated his
mother to tell lit ra some stories about bad
boys, and upon her expressing astonish
ment said, that he 'wanted to Gnd out how
they got out of scrain-s.'
Darling (to mamma, who superintends
cook's operations) I wish I was a pud
ding, mamma.1 'Why ?' "Cause I should
have lots or sugar put into me.' Mamma
take the hint.
'Take back this centennial beef and
brin-i me some that grazed iri Boston com
mon before the tea party,' thundered a
:uest at a hotel, to a waiter the other day.
We wonder if he meaut to be sarcastic ?
A MiLD-TEMrEKED man who had fallen
on an icy sidewalk, picked himself up wilh
the soliloquy : 'I don't cherish the least
ill-will, but for interesting reading matter
comineud me to the obituary of the man
who owns the sidewalk.'
Tins is the ceasou of the year when the
farmer tells his son John that if he will
sort over ten bushels of potatoes, feed the
slock, repair that fence, and reshingle the
corncrib, he may have the rest of the day
to l.o snipe-shiHitiug.
A HAN in lergeu tunnel the other morn
ing hailed a fellow-laborer with : 'So ye've
got a baby at ycr house. What is it, a boy
or a gnyrl ? 'Ctuces !' 'An' it a boy.'
'No.' 'Well, then its a girl.' 'Faith,'
said the delighted father, 'somebody's b'en
telling ye.'
Two Irish physicians, in consultation at
the beside of a patient, disputed as to the
nature of the disease. At last one of them
ended .the discussion by saying, 'Very
well, have it your way now ; but the post
mortem will show that I was right.'
A rorNTRYMAN stopped at a telegraph
window where a younn lady was receiving
dispatches, and after looking on a moment,
called to his companion, 'Say, Bill, just
come and see 'em make paper collars!
Don't she know her biz, eh. Bill ?'
A PARTV w ho was looking at a house the
other day, said he couldn't afford to pay" so
much rent. 'Well, look at the neighbor
hood,' replied the woman. 'You can bor
row flat-irons ucxt door, coffee and tea
across the street, flour and sugar on the
corner, and there's a big pile of wood be
longing to the school-house right across the
alley.'
An actor named l'riest was playing at
one of the principal theatres. Some one
remarked at the Garrick Club that there
were a great many men in the pit. 'Prob
ably clerks who have taken Priest's or
ders,' said Mr. Poole, ouo of the best puu
sters as well as one of the cleverest comic
artists of the day.
While recently engaged in splitting
wood, Jones struck a false blow, causing
the stick to fly up. It struck him on the
jaw, and knocked out a front tooth. Ah,'
said Bill, meeting him 60on after, 'you've
had a dental ojteratiort performed, I see.'
'Yes,' replied the sufferer, axe-idental.'
A jubilant voter wrote two letters im
mediately after the return of his candidate
at a late election one to his son, consist
ing of the single word 'Hurrah!' and the
other a few sentences of condolence to a
dear friend who had lost his wife. In his
excitement he mixed the envelopes, and
the result can bo imagined when the be
reAved widower received the wrong letter.
The kind of whiskey they have iu
'Frisco : 'After that the cloth was took off,
and the liquors war hro't it. Aud wot li
quors they wuz, too! The whiskey wuz
none o' this ycr kind that makes a man
feel like sayin': I kiu lick any son of a gun
in the house, and makes him smash things
gincrally. No, sir. It war the kind that
jist makes a man lift his plass up gintly,
and say : 'Joe, old pard I'm looking at
ycr.' '
On a street car, the other day, a boy
made a sudden grab aiuoug the straw,
caught something, and, as he straightened
up, he inquired, 'Who's iost a fifty-cent
piece ?' seven men held out their hands to
him, and four more wauled to, but felt
afraid. There was a painful pause, and
then the boy unclasped his hand and ex
hibited a pants button. Seven men sud
denly sank back to meditate, and the other
four indulged in winks.
A one LEGGED Yankee orator, named
Jones, was pretty successful in bantering
an Irishman, when the latter asked him :
'How did you conic td lose your leg ?'
Well,' said Jones, on examining my ped
igree, and looking up my descent, I fouud,
there was some Irish in me, and having
become convinced that it had settled in
that left leg, I had it cut off at once.' 'Be
the powers,' said Pat,' 'it would have been
a belter thing if it had settled in your
i
head.'
A good story is told of a noted connois
seur of wine, who had a large party before
whom he set some of his choicest brands.
Addressing a very uupretending individual
at the far end of the table, he asked, 'Have
you tried the port, Mr. ? That's '34.'
'It's very good,' replied the unsophistica
ted friend ; 'ye've got it cheap. Mine's 30
shillings. Ye've got the better o' me this
time. Vine's hardly worth the advance.'
Til eke is a pood story of a certain Bos
ton Doctor of Divinity, whose name they
spell with a P.' A man of the same name
died, and a zealous newspaper fellow, see
ing the death in the paper and thinking
only of Dr. P., wrote a most enthusiastic
obituary. A wag met Dr. P. the next day.
'What, you are not dead!' he said.
Well, then, you ought to be. No man can
erer live up to that obituary.'

KIDNEY COMPLAINT.
Probshly there is no coinpluint that afllicta the
liutnaii cyMein, which i so little understood tit
the present time, us sotue of the varied forms of
Kidney Co:iip!uii:'.3.
There U uo disease which causes such acute
paiu or mure ulrtrmini; ia its results than when
the kidneys fail lo 'secrete from the blood the
nric acid, rind other pewionous substances, which
the blood accumulates iu its circulation through
the system.
If from auy cause the kidneys fail to perform
the functions devolTin upon them, the cumula
tions nrc taken up by the absorbents aud the
whole system thrown Into a state of disease,
causing preat pain and suffering, aud very often
immediate death. Hence the importance of
keeping the kidney and blood in a healthy con
dition, through which all the Impurities of the
body mat pass.
PAIN IX THE BACK.
There U uo remedy known to medical science
which has proved itself more valuable in cases
of Kiduey Complaints than the Vrgetine. It
nets directly upon the secretions, clcauess and
purifies the blood, aud restores the whole sytcm
to healthy action.
The following extraordinary cure of peat suf
ferers, wno had been giveu up by the best phy
sicians as hopeless cases, will speak for them
selves, and should challenge the most profound
attention of the medical faculty, as well as of
those w ho are sufi'ering from Kidney Cnmplulut.
THE BEST MEDECINE.
Ekst MAKsnrtEi.n, Ang. 22, 1S70.
M k. Stevens : Dear Sir-I am seventy-one years
of aicc ; have suffered mauy years with Kidney
Complaint, weakness iu my back aud stomach.
I was induced by friends to try your Vbt.etine,
and I thiuk it the bcl medicine for weakness of
the Kidneys I ever nscd. 1 bave tried many re
medies for this complaint, and never found so
much relief as from the VrocTTNE. It strength
ens aud Invigorates the whole system. Many of
my acquaintances have taken it, aud I believe
it to be ttood for all the complaints for which it
is recommended. Yours trulv,

H. It. Stevens, Esq. : Dear Sir 1 have V-cn
badly iifllicti d with Kidney Complaint for ten
years ; have sullered treat pain in my back, hips
aud idi-, with frcat difficulty in passim; urine,
which was often, and in very small quantities,
frequently accoiiipauied with blood and exeru
liating pain.
I have faithfully tried most of the popular re
medies recommended for my complaint ; 1 have
oven under the treatment of some of the most
skillful physicians in Boston, all of whom pro
noticcd my cae incurable. This was my condi
d it ion when I was advised by a frieud lo try the
YEOETtNE, and I could sec the good effects from
the liiit doe I took, and from that moment I
kept on improving until I was entirely cured,
taking iu all. should think, about six bottles.
It is indeed a valuable medicine and if 1 should
be afflicted ai;aiii in the same way, I would give
a dollar a dose, if I con id not ut it without.
Respectfully, J. M. GILE.
401 Third Street, South Boston.
NEARLY BLIND.
if. Stevens : Dear Sir In expressing my
thanks to you for benefits derived from the use
of Yegetink, and to benefit others. I will stale :
Wlu n eight or nine years old I was afflicted
with Scrofula, which made its appearance in my
eyes, face aud bead, and I w is very near blind
for two year. All kinds of operations were per
formed on my eyes, mid nil to no good result.
Finally the disease principally settled iu my
body, limbs aud feet, and at times iu an aggra
vated way.
Last Summer I was, from some cause, weak
in my spine and kidneys, aud it was ut times
very bard to retain the urine. Seeing your ad
vertisement Iu the Commercial, I bought a bit-
tie of EGETIXE, and commenced usipg ac
cording to directions. In two or three days I ob
tained treut relief. A fter using four or five bot
tle I noticed it bad a wonderful effect on the
rough, sealy blotches on my body aud legs. 1
still used Yegetine and the humorous sores one
after another disappeared uutil they were all
gone, aud I attribute the cure of the two diseases
lo Yeoetine as the only reliable remedy. Once
more accept my thanks, aud believe me to be,
Ycry rcspectfutlv,

Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, etc., are
always unpleasant, and at times they become
the most distressing and dangerous diseases that
can affect the human system. Most diseases of
the Kidneys arise front impurities in the
blood, causing humors which settle on these
parts. Yeoktise excels any known remedy in
the whole world fer cleuusing aud purifllug the
blood, thereby causing a healthy ncliou to all the
organs of th tiody.

To Obtais Frcft froV Babbbn Trees.
A correspondent of the American Agriculturint
says in relation to obtaining frait from barren
trees :
"I wish lo describe to yon a method of making
fruit trees bear which I blundered upon. Some
tifteeu years ago I hud a small apple tree that
leaned considerably, to I drove a stake by it,
and tied a string to a limb and fastened it to the
suke. The next year that limb blossomed full,
und not another blossom appeared on the tree,
aud I came to the couciusion that the string was
su titfht that it prevented the sap returning to
the roots : eoiieiiuentiy it formed fiuit bud?.
H.iviug a couple of j.ear trees which were large
enough to bear, but which bad never blossomed,
I l-Mik a course twi.ie nuj wound it eve:al times
aroun.t the tree above the lower limbs, and tied
ii as tight n I coulJ. The next spring all the
lop ubovu the eord b!c-sstiued as white as a sheet,
aud there was nol one blossom below where the
cord was lied. A neighbor, seeing my tree load
ed wilh peurs, u.-ed Ibis method with the same
result, I have since tried the experiment oa
beveral tree, uiutoft wilh the same reault. 1
think il a much better way than cutting off the
roots. Iu early summer, say in June or July,
wind a stroug twiue sevciul times around the
tree, or a single limb, and tie it, the tighter the
better, ami yon will be pleased w'th the result ;
the next winter or spring the cord may be taken
off."
What is more unsightly than a ragged ever
gieeu tree ; und yet how many of them we see
ou every side. Sometimes there are a dozen in
a single small plot of ground not one of tbera
ought to stand longer than the swinging of the
axe, the grubbing-hoe, or even a "little hatchet"
can produce their downfall. No evergreen will
do well without it is properly alicu.k-d to fvr
several years after setting out. As far as its
branches extend the soil should be frequently
stirred and kept clear of weeds. Another im
portant thing U, .that ia purchasing aa ever
green be sure that it is branched perfectly from
tht ground, and. has only oue main stem. For
front yards, and all small plots of ground, the
best tree to select is the hemlock eprncc, aud the
next the American aborvltx. They can be kept
within any reasonable bounds by clipping, and
occupy very little room, while they are very
beautiful.
Exercise of Animals. An experienced farm
er says that in all schemes for feeding animals
in yards and stables, instead of allowing them to
get their own food iu woods or pastures, there is
oue thing lost sight of, namely, the necessity of
physical exercise in order lo have tho best of
health. We know how it Is with men and wo
men wbo do not exercise enough, and it ia trne
cf animals. They need something to do as well

Worms in Horses. A correspondent of the
Mas. Ploughman says : I once had a valuable
animal in snch bad case from worms that 1 kept
him out of sight from shamtt. A friend, how
ever, suggested that I feed him ten bushels of
buckwheat, and watch the result. This I did ia
lieu oi any other provender, and before long be
began to improve, and by the time the ten bash
els were consumed he would hardly be recognized
as the same horse, so fat and sleek had be be
come and had no worms afterwards.
Limb is Crops. There Is said to be carried
off from the nine pounds of lime in twenty-five
bushels of oats, and fifteen pounds in thirty
eight bushels of barley. Thete are thirty-five
pounds of lime in two tons of rye grass, one
hundred and twenty-six pounds in two tons of
clover, aud oue hundred and forty pounds in
twenty. five tons of turnips, and two hundred and
seventy pounds hi nine tone of potatoes.
Some soils contain abundance of lime for a
thousand years, while others require an occa
sional application of lime as a fertilizer.
Plast Trees in Wasts Places ox the Farm.
It is a feature of the spring's work which
should not be neglected. There are on most
farms spots which cannot be cultivated proper
ly and that would be more sightly if covered
with foliage. Plant trees thereon, selecting such
as wilt grow there from among species that pro
duce valuable timber.
Mammoth Steers. Jacob Rapper, of West
Earl township, Lancaster county, ia in posses
sion of two four yearling mammoth steers, each
of which is supposed to weigh over 4,000 pounds,
ne intends to feed them until the spring of 1S76,
when they will be taken to the Centennial Exhi
bition at Philadelphia. These steers are the
largest and probably the heaviest in the United
States.
The Ohio Fatmer says: "A mn who has
lived all his life on a farm stands but little
chance to compete successfully with the mea
who have been educated and trained for specula
tive pursuits. If yon have a good farm keep it,
improve it, adorn it, be proud of it, and when
you are done with it, hand it down to your child
ren ; the best inheritance, with a good name and
education, that yoa could leave them.
Testing ?eeds. Oue of the little things
which a farmer may neglect to his cost, is that
of testing field and garden seeds before planting
them. Most important in this matter is the corn
crop. An experienced corn grower can general
ly give a pretty safe opinion as to whether corn
will be good for seed. There are some special
marks which help to determine this question ot
vitality, but when it is so easy to determine the
the question definitely by p!an'.iag a few kernels,
It is not wise to ran even a slight danger of be
ing mistaken. In a less important: degree, the
same is true of garden seeds.
We strongly advise taking a few seeds of each
kind to be planted, counting them, and planting
in a box of good earth, kept in a warm room and
watered as needed. In a few days the plants
will appear, and if all or nearly all the seeds
bave germinated vigorously, the quality of the
seed may be sonMdered positively settled. The
work should be done promptly, so as to get an
other assortment if that ou hand prove defective.

Cobn-Ci lture in Gakdess. In field-culture
corn is planted iu hills. Some have tried grow
ing it in liue or drill, and have obtained more
corn. There is not the same chance for
three or four plants feeding together In one hill,
that there is for a sing's plant alone and with
nothiug nearer to it tban a foot or so. Three
plants a foot apart will give more corn tban
three plauts in one hill three feet from another
hill. This is not only reasonable but it bos been
verified by actual facts. But the increased crop
does not pay. The horse-hoe eannot work but
one way when the corn is in drills, and then the
horse has to idle in the stable, while the driver
lakes-the slow band-hoe to clean out the weeds
in the row.
But the field-practice, proper enough in the
field , has been carried to the garden, and sweet
corn lor kitchen use is treated Just as if it were
a field-crop. Iu gardeus where hand-labor is ex
clusively used, there is no reason whatever for
growing corn in hills. One .can have better
sweet corn by sowing in rows tban in hills,
while the labor is in no wise any more. Gtr

Carb of Horses- is Spring. A subscriber,
Lickiug county, Ohio, writes : I was always
taught to keep horses up, in the spring, on dry
feed, until the spaing work was done, for fear
they would not eat their feed if turned out, and
would therefore fall off in flesh. But for the
last four years, when we began work In the
spring, I bave given my horses a run of an hour
or more every day, even when the grass was well
started, and have found that they feel belter,
and keep in better flesh, than under the old rale.
The grass keeps the bowels open, and the rolling 1
is the natural method of currying. I keep two
horses only combined weight 2,150 pounds
yet they do all the work on a farm of 180 acres.
