A little old man smoking a pipe aud wear
ing an excited look, rubbed into the rooms
of thief of police. Standing by that official,
the little man swelled out and exclaimed :
Xo by dunder no !

Yon tin I bay dat license V shouted
the smoker. Tou tins I bays a one

'That's the new law.'
'You tings I was a fool zo high, und zo

Daewin'8 inherited income is 52,000 a

'If all the world were blind, what a
melancholy sight it would be, said an
Irishman to his congregation.
It will be the fashion, if I dye for it,1
said the ambitious belle whose locks were
not of ruling tint ; and dye she did.
A paper out west has for its motto:
Good-will to all men who pay promptly.
Devoted to news and making money.1
WnT is a drunkard like a bad politician?
Because be is always poking his nose into
measures that spoiled the constitution.
A Dabeet insisted that his race was
mentioned in the Bible. He said he heard
the preacher read about how "Xigger J)e
rous wanted to be born again.1
Being asked what made him so dirty,
an unwashed street Arab's reply was : 'I
was made, as they tell me, of dust, and I
suppose it works out.'
District visitor, blandly 'Well, dame,
and how do you find things now ?' Crusty
old cottager 'IIow do I find things ?'
Why, by looking arter 'em, to be sure.
Yen some mans slap me on der shoulder
und says, I ras glad to bear you vos 60

Can you do the landlord in the 'Lady
of Lyons ?' ' said a manager to a seedy
actor. 'I should think I might,1 was the
answer ; 'I have done a great many land
lords.' Social advantages Said a little girl to
another, 'My ma can take all her teeth out
of her mouth, and yours can't.1 'I have
got a dead grandma and you havn't,1 was
the retort.
The son of a clergyman was delivering
a college valedictory, when, in pulling out
"bis handkerchief, be pulled out a pack of

"On which side of the platform is my
train ?' asked a stranger in a Jersey City
depot the other day. 'Well, my friend,1
replied a gentleman, passing, 'if you take
the left, you 11 be right, if you take the
right you'll be left.1
Did it ver occur to you what the mean
ing of 'No Cards,1 and 'No Cake,1 append

It is simply the exclamation of the editor
thrown in, in a spiteful way, to show that
he was not remembered.
A careless barber, trimming Sheri
dan's ears, put him to great pain aud un
easiness. 'Are you trimming my left ear
now ?' says the wit. 'No, sir ; not till I've
done the right.1 Oh 1 only I thought by
what I felt that you were passing through
to the left ear without going around.1
A western editor appeals to his delin
quent subscribers by saying : 'This week
we have taken in potatoes and pickles on
subscription. Now, if you will bring in
nine vinegar for the pickles and some
wood to roast the potatoes, we can live till
artichokes get big euough to dig.1

likewise he was hung for stcalin1 a mewl.1
You may talk of your ragged edge of
despair and all that till doomsday, but
what is it compared to the feeling of the
vestryman who, after relieving himself of
the tortures of a new boot by slipping it off
during the services, finds himself unex
pectedly called on to go around with the
plate.
'Yes, Sin,1 yelled a preacher in a Dako
tali church, one Sunday morning, there's
more lying and swearing and stealing and
general deviltry to the square inch in this
here town than in all the rest of the Ameri
can country ; and then the congregation
got up and dumped the preacher out of the
window.
Here is a bachelor's opinion on a very
important subject : "A pretty girl has uo
more moral right to conceal her features
with one of those ugly face-fittiDg veils,
than a rosebud has to wear a waterproof,
or the sun to put on green goggles.1 The
pretty girls will please to consider this
questien settled.
A French butcher who was ou his
death-bed said to his wife : 'If I die. Fran
coise, you must marry our shop boy. He
Is a good young man, and the busiucss can
not be carried on without a man to look
after it.1 'I have been thinking a little
about that myself,1 said his wife. And he
gave op tb ghost in peace.
A Fhtsician who had been greatly an
noyed by numerous questions concerning
the condition of a certain patient, was
topped while on his busy rounds by a man
with the old question : 'How's Mr. ?'

THE LIGHT RUNNING "DOMESTIC."
The MDomeatie.
The "DOMESTIC" is an exceedingly simple
machine in all its parts and processes. It is
easily understood ; familiarity with its action is
very quickly acquired, and it needs hardly any
practice of special skill in the operator.
The superior advantages obtained in the "Do
mestic" are mainly :
1. Light Running-
2. Quietness no Cams or Gear Wheels.
3. Perfect Stitch Double-thread Lock Stitch.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Con
struction 5. Absence of all Frlctiou.
6. Great range of Work.
7. Ease of Ojeratiou.
We do not say that the "Domestic" is the only
Machine worthy of public favor. We admit
there are some possessing real and acknow
ledged inurit ; but we do claim, aud are prepared
to demonstrate, that the "Domestic" has many
excellences that render it decidedly tujxrior to
any other Machine now before the public.
Let every woman, therefore, examine for her
self Into Its merits when she. buys a machine.
This is an important purchase, not to be care
lessly made ; one that will lufluence her com
fort, probably for a long time. With a "Domes
tic" iu her Mmsioii, she will find her sewing
become a pleasant exercise of skill and taste, in
stead of a slow manual drudgery ; she will have
the time and strength to add beauty and elegance
to work iu which before she has been obliged to
coutent herself with bare utility.

Dr. J. Walker's California Tine
.gar Bitters are a purely Vegetable
' preparation, made chiefly from the native
herbs found on the lower ranges of the
Sierra Nevada mountains of California,
the medicinal properties of which are
extracted therefrom without the use of
Alcohols The question is almost daily
asked, " What is the cause of the unpar
alleled success of Vinegar Bitters 1
Our answer is, that they remove the
cause of disease, and the patient recov
ers his health.' They are the great
blood purifier and a life-giving princi
ple, a perfect Renovator andlnvigorator
of the system. Never before in the his
tory of the world has a medicine been
compounded possessing the remarkable
aualitiea of Yikzgab Bittebs in healing
the sick of every disease man is heir to..
They are a gentle Purgative as well as a
Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation
ef the Liver and Visceral Organs in Bilious
Diseases.
The properties of De. Waxkek's
VnntGAR Bitters aro Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic,

Tub Rose's Enemy. Daisy Kyebrigbt, In the
Country Gentleman, thus speaks of the miserable
pesta with which every grower of a rose is ac
quainted :
The rose is a prey to slng3, bugs and aphit or
green fly, and it must be daily watched to avoid
their depredations, which not only take from It
both foliage aud buds, but also make it thing
of horror, for green worms and flies are exces
sively jdisgusting. So we must closely watch
each leaf and bud, and scatter air-slacked lime
most plentifully all over the branches while they
are wet with morning dew. Two, or at the most
three, applications are always successful, and
the slugs are vanquished ; but the rose bugs re
quire a hand-to-hand battle to rout them entire
ly ; so with a pail of boiling hot water in one
band, we shake the bushes with the other hand
oyer it, and the bngs are disposed of for this
season.
If the rose bugs and the aphides are very
numerous, however ,they can receive their quietus
by sprinkling them with a syringe and the fol
lowing solntiou :
Take one and a half pints of whale oil soap.
a pint of fine salt, aud twelve gallons of warm
water ; mix it thoroughly and apply it freely,
holding up the branches so that tbe wash may
touch both sides of the leaves. Next morning
sprinkle them with pure water, and hardly a bug
ill dare show itself. There are two crops of
the slug ; one comes In May or June, and when
the larvae are developed, they fall to the ground
and burrow in It, and remain in a chrysalis
state until August, when they appear as moths
and lay another crop of eggs ; but if you suc
ceed in destroying the first crop in Mo, yon trill
not be troubled again.
To Grow Rose CcTTrsos. Now is a good
season to start roses from euttiugs. Select
young wood of this year's growth, but so sea-
toned that it wi:l break off readily, and not be
too soft to strike root rapidly. Make the cut
tings about six inches in length, and plant them
in pots filled two-thirds with a rich compost,
with an inch or two of sand upon the top. In
this insert the cutting firmly, and keep it per
fectly wet all the time. ' Place a glass over the
cuttings, and shade them from the sun for three
or four days.
Excellent asd Cheap Copying Ixk. Dr. H.
Stieren sends the following receipt for publica
tion the Journal: Dissolve In a porcelain or
glazed earthen vessel one and a half drachms of
alum, three drachms of blue vitrol, six drachms
of extract of logwood, one drachm of gum ara
ble, and one half drachm of white sugar, in
twelve ounces of boiling distilled or rain water ;
filter, when dissolved, while hot, and keep in a
closed bottle. Although the writing will look
somewhat light at first, it will soon turn into a
purple-black. Tbe best pen for this ink is a gold
pen, which can be used for six years or more.
It is now claimed that soaking Seed-wheat In
brine before sowing is a protection against the
chinch bug. Wheat fields side by side, one
treated in this way and another without tbe use
of salt and soaking, showed the great effect of
the latter. While the one was not worth cut
ting, the other was as good as could be desired.
Again, another fatmer, whose spring wheat was
a good height, and tbe bugs were destroying it,
sowed salt broadcast over the ground, and In a
few days not a bug could be seen. So affirms a
correspondent of the Sural Nw Yorker.
Harness Polish. For zood harness polish
take of mutton suet two ounces ; beeswax, six
ounces ; powdered sugar, six ounces ; lampblack,
one ounce ; green or yellow soap two ounces ;
water, oue half pint. Dissolve the soap in tbe
water, add the solid ingredients, mix well, and
add the turpentine. Lay it on with a sponge,
and polish off with a brush. The same black
ing ought to answer as well for boots and shoes.
-VornaI of Applied Chemistry.
Destroying Insects. A French horticulturist
suggests this plan : After sunset I place in the
centre of my orchard an old barrel, the inside of
which 1 have previously well tarred. At tbe
bottom of tbe barrel I place a lighted lamp.
Insects of many kinds, attracted by the light,
make for the lamp, and while circling around it,
strike against tbe side of the barrel, where,
meeting with the tar,' their wings aud legs be
come so clogged that they fall helpless to the
bottom. In the morning 1 examine the barrel,
and frequently take out of it ten of twelve quarts
of cockchafers, which I at once destroy. A few
pence worth of tar employed in this way will,
without any further trouble, be tbe means of
destroying innumerable numbers of these insects,
whose larvxe are amongst the destructive pests
the gardener or farmer has to content against.
Science of Health.
Lice on Cattle. A good remedy to destroy
lice on cattle is water in which potatoes were
boiled. For every oue of your cattle take two
quarts of water and eight middle-sized potatoes
cut In half. If yon have ten cattle yon must take
80 potatoes and SO quarts of water. When the
potatoes are soft take them out, wet a large
sponge and wash your cattle freely, choosing a
warm day. Comb them with a curry comb, and
yon will be astonished to see the effects of the
potato water.
Lovers of house plants will be sorry to learn
that the oleander is a dangerous plant, but such
is said to be the fact. Children have been poi
soned by eating tbe flower petals ; cattle have
been killed by browsing on the foliage ; a single
drop, it is said, of tbe milky, acrid juice that
exudes when a twig or leaf is broken off is suffi
cient to produce tbe death of an infant. The
odor exhaled from the blossom is also deleterious
to health.
Tub story that gas lime will destroy the pota
to beetle is all bosh. Even Paris green, were it
not eaten on the vines, would have no effect.
The Chester county Vilage Record says, that
the corn and oats promise a good yield in that
county.
HOUSEHOLD.
From the Germantoten Telegraph.
Raspbebry Vinegar. The following receipt
for making this delicions sirup for iurajier
drinkiug is the best I have ever tri.d, and I
think such of your readers, Mr. Editor, who use
other methods will after a trial endorse what i
say : Put a pound of very fine ripe raspberries
iu a bowl, bruire them well, and ponr upon them
a quart of tbe best cider vinegar ; next day
strain the liquor on a pound of fresh, ripe rasp
berries, bruise them also, and the following day
do the same, but do not tqveeze A fruit or it w!U
mail it ferment, only drain the liqnor as dry as
yon caa from it. The last time pass It through
a canvas bag previously wet with the vinegar, to
prevent waste. Put the juice into a stone jar,
with a pound of tvgar to every pint of Juic the
sugar must be broken into lumps ; stir it and
when melted put the jars into a pan of water ;
let it simmer a little and then skim it ; when
cold bottle it. It will be fine and thick when
cold and a most excellent sirup for making a
wholesale drink. ,
Orange Pie. Grate the peel ot one fresh 1
orange, and take tbe juice and pulp of two large
qanges ; add to them one cup of sugar, and tbe
beaten yolks of three eggs, mix one eup of milk
with the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff
froth. Bake in puff paste.
Orange Preserve. Of oue dozen oranges
take nine ; wash and weigh them ; put them
whole iu a kettle of eold water and let them boil y
until they are soft. Then cnt them in two cross-
wise, take out the seeds, and with a pair of scis
sors cut them in narrow strips. Then add the
weight of the oranges in sugar and the juice and
pulp of the raw oranges ; let them stand over
night, then cook them until tbe sirup Is nearly
jelly. Sour oranges are the best. mrs. s. e. G.
Cherry Pcdthno. To a quart of dry flour,add
two tablespoonsfnl of fine.y chopped suet, a
very small teaspoon ful of salt ; and four even .
teaspponsful of baking powder; mix them
thoroughly, and add milk enough to stir to a
thick batter. Now, place on and earthen bak- j
ing dish one quart of cherries, pitted or not, as
you choose ; pour the mixture over, and bake
one hour in a moderate oven. Make a sanee ef
boiled white sngar, by adding two tablespoonful
of water to a cup of sngar, and boiling five
miuntes.
To Prevent T Rusting. Rub fresh lard
over every part of the dish and then put it in a
hot oven and heat it thoroughly. Thus treated,
any tin ware may be used in water constantly,
and remain bright and free from rust indefinitely-
.
