Haw Deacun Jones fr'ell.
Over in Mahoning county, Ohio,
livd Deacon Jone-, a very staid,
dignified sort of a Christian, and a
Tierfeet moM of propriety. Deucon
Jones had the misfortune to lose bis
wife, and at tbe age of forty, found
himself with a fortune and several
small children, without a mistress
to his faruihoupe. As he could not
immediately take another wife and
escape scandal, and could not
get anyone to take charge of the kit
chen and nursery, he had recourse
to employing a young woman as a
housemaid. Nancy Stearns was a
laughing, romping, beauty, who de
lighted in experimenting on toe
Deacon, by way of testing the
strength of human nature : but at
last, in a moment of unguarded
weakness, he was led into tempta
tion, in committing a slight indis
cretion with his beautiful housemaid.
WLen in bis wonted coolness and
presence of mind, he was horrified
at the enormity of his sin. In vain
he repented and grieved over his
lost virtue. Finally, as a last resort
for easing his conscience, at the con
clusion of the service on the follow
ing Sabbath morning he arose and
requested the forbears nee of the
brethren and sisters a few minutes,
when he electrified them by making
the following confession :
"My Christian friends, you all
know that I lost my dear wife some
time ago, (sobs and tears), and that
Nancy Stearns has been keeping
bouse for me, and you know that 1
have a child not a year old. Well,
that little child would cry iu the
night, and it would be a long time
before I could quiet it; and on last
Tuesday night God forgive me
the child cried so hard that Nancy
arose and came into the room, and
leaned over the bed to hush the poor
child ; and brothers and sisters, her
leaning over me made me forget
Christ."
Hereupon the worthy deacon
broke down entirely ,and stood weep
ing and blowing his nose.
"What did you do?" sternly de
manded the minister.
"I-I-I-ki-ki kissed her 1 "
stammered out the deacon, between
his sobs ; but I have been very sor
ry about it. and prayed to be forgiv-
en ; and I want you to forgive and
pray for me, my brothers and sis-
tern
As the deacon bowed himself up
on his seat, like the mighty oak be
fore the tornado, Deacon Goodfellow
arose and astonished the audience
still more by saying :
"Brothers and sisters, you have
heard what Brother Jones has said,
and now h wants our forgiveness.
For my own part, I think Brother
Jones is truly penitent, and I am
wQling to forgive him with all my
heart And, brothers and sisters, I
will add still further, that if I had
' no wife, and a pretty girl like Nancy
Stearns should come to my room
and lean over me I'd kiss her and
abide by the consequences 1"

usually suave and self contained
school mistress made a hasty leap
and loud 6hriek, the double effort
landing her on top of the highest
deBk ia the room. Her example in
both leap and shriek was Bodily
followed, and tne new pupils were
left in possession of the floor. A
very babel of cries and screams an
nounced that the school mistress
and other fcirls were in consultation
as to how to get rid of the undue

denly possessed theoi. in the midst
of this infective discussion a tea-
year-old boy succeeded iu forcing a
side window open, and foiling out
soon made Lis appearance with a
formidable club with wiicii he dis
patched the snakes in rotation.
There were foUud to be five of the

too greai for cries and shrieks. A
trembling horror teemed to possess
all, while the glittering bead-like eye
of the huge reptile seemed to fasci
nate with iu scintillating glances.
Just then the welcome roll of wagon
wheels was heard on the road, on
the margin of which the Bchoolrouse
stood. It broke the spell of horror,
and shriek alter shriek on all scales

building. In a moment or two the

A Molol Wife,
Jones was well aware that his wife
was in the habit of rilling his pock
ets when h was asleep, nut, like a
wi.-e man, be kept eileui ou the sub
ject. One night, however, he woke
up and caught her in the act.
"Hal he exclaimed, "what are
you doing, my dear?"
The lady started, her cheeks flush
ed, the pantaloons fell to the floor,
and she wae about to make a full
confession when a bright idea enter
ed her head. Recovering herself she
said :
"I was looking to see whether
your clothes needed any buttons."
"They do, they do, my dear," he
exclaimed, springing from the bed,
"needed 'em tor weeks and months,
and I wondered why rou didn't
sew 'em on, but I waited, for I was
sure you would get to it some time.
And how kind, to cet out of bed
at this time of night to attend to
'em. Say what you will, there's noth
ing like a good wife. Let me turn
up the gas a little, so's you'll haye
all the light you want in sewing em
on. Got your needle and thread
and the buttons? No. Well, tell
me where they are and I'll get 'em
for you."
Mrs. Jones proceeded to sew on
the buttons while her husband sat
on tbe side of the bed and encour
aged her with words of praise on
her wifely care and thought for his
comfort, occasionally remarking that
go where he would be would always
say there was nothing in the world
like a good wife.
Then he went to the wardrobe
and brought out several pairs of
pants, two or three coats and vests,
and a number of shirts, from all of
which buttons were missing, and
cheerfully observed :
"While we are at it we'll make a
nidit of it"
Two hours later when Mrs. Jone9,
with a weary sigh, removed tne
j thimble from her finger, Mr. Jones
patted her on the cheek and said :
"I H-T u aga,n ,n" d,,'ir. 1 ay il

The laeaus used in ilautinz corn
in the semi trid Kansas belt enables
the great fattening grain of the Uni
ted States. It is done by means of the
listing plow, which throws the soil
into high ridges, the middles being
deeply pulverized in addition. In
the trenches the corn is planted
down in the permanently moist soil
of the trenches, these being filled up
in the process of cultivation. This
trenchjs plowed, is V-shapied, and
sixtnee inches deep. Until the corn
gets strong, an inverted trough coy
ers the rows as cultivator passes,
preventing the plows from rolling
the soil over the plants. When the
corn is ready for the second cultiva
tion the trough is laid aside. The
shovers are set to throw the eartn
. . .
to the corn plants, now ttrong and
two feet tall, and tbey are also set
to take the ground deeply. Ibis
cultivator throws almost all the
earth into the trench that the lister
threw out The weeps are deeply
bnried. The surface of the field is

plants are at least ten inches below
the surface of the ground and how

no one knows. lut now no orom

tract concerning an adventure in
Harrisburg is taken :
"Mr. Lincoln gave a cordial greet
lrz to me when 1 called on uina al
ter his arrival at Willard's Hotel,
and he indulged iu some pleasant
reminiscences of his Congressional
career. Ui course i ia:aea 10 mm
about his forthcoming message, and,
after having made me promise that
what he told me should not go into
print, he gave me an. account of it
lie had written it at Ins tprintneia
home, and had it put in type by his
friend, the local printer. A number
of sentences had been reconstructed
several times before they were en
tirelv satisfactory, and then four
cojiits had been printed on footacap
paper. Ihese conies had been lock
ed up in what Mr. Lincoln called
a "irriusack." and entrusted to his
eldest son. Robert "When we ar
rived al Harrisburg," said Mr. Lin
coin, "and had washed up, I asked
Bob where the message was, and
was taken aback by the confession
that in the excitement caused by the
enthusiastic reception he believet
he had left a waiter take the grip
sack. My heart went up into my
mouth and I started down stairs
where I was told that if a waiter had
taken my gripsack I should prob
ably find it in the baggage room
Going there I saw a large pile of
gripsacks and other baggage and
thought I discovered mine. My key
fitted it but on opening it there
was nothing inside but a few paper
collars and a flask of whiskey. A
few moments afterward I came
across my gripsack, with the docu
ment all righ't and now I will show
it to you, on our honor, mind !'
The inaugural was printed in clear

make an impression upon his audi

Whpii the nastures begin to fall off
some extra food should be provid
ed for all the stock, but especially
for the cows. Horses are always
well cared for, but tbe cows too of
ten are neglected, both as to food
and - supply of pure water.
Those farmers who nave provided
some soiling crops will find the ben
efit of the fresh, grown fodder; those
who have not will bnd the disadvan
tage of being short of feed just at this
season, it ia very easy to secure
this supply of food for the short sea
son. Every farmer has a neglected
piece of land, which is bringing in
uothing, and which could be made
to produce a very profitable crop of
green leed. sucn an opponnnuy
should not be neglected. Where
the supply has been provided, a lib
eral feed should be given daily. It
is a mistake to suppose that it is a
waste of food to feed liberally now,
that it is better to save the food for
winter and spare it at this season.
hen an animal is kept short ot
food it goes back rapidly, and more
food will be required to make up
this lost ground than would have
kept the animal in its condition.
This is especially true as regards
swine ; if they are permitted to fall
off now for lack of lood, they will
consume much more than the pres
ent gain in recovering the loss. Ani
mals that are intended lor lattemng
should be kept on full feed now and
those to be wintered over should bo
kept in good condition. Tbe old
and true adage should not be forgot
ten, viz : that an animal well sum
mered is half wintered."
Japanese Pro.erb.
The Japanese are fond of proverbs
and in consequence their language
cau b ast many happy hits. Some
of the axiomatic sayings which are
accredited to Japan are reahy of re-
;eot introduction into the country,
the people absorbing Western ex
pressions with gTeat facility. Some
few of the following may be traced
to other lands, but they are so well
known throughout the empire as
really to deserve the name of Jap
snee. Tbe Japanese Mrs. Partington is
characterized as attempting ."to drive
away fog with a fan."
An allusion to the usual h fleet cf
i-evenge in an uncivilized country is
contained in the expression, " When
you curse, look out for two graves."

Others, more terse, require no ex

The Oriole's Song.
This birds song consists of lour
cotes, and it is curious that.although
there is a peculiar, rich, flute-like
quality by which the oriole notee
may be recognized, no two sing alike.
Robins, song sparrows and perhaps
all other birds sing differently from
each other, o far us I ha ve obeeryed,
but none diffttr so greatly, in my
opinion, as orioles. Th four that
I have been able to study carefully
enough to reduce this song to the
musical scale, though all having the
same compass, arranged the notes
differently in every case. The ori
ole is, of course, not limited in ex
pression to his song. I have spoken
of bis cry of distress cr of war, con
sisting ot two notes slurred together.
The ordinary call, as he goes about
a tree, especially a fruit tree iu
bloom, seeking insects under and
over each leaf and blossom, is a
single note, loud and clear. If a
pair are on the tTee together, it is
the same, hut much softer.
Trimming- Down a Boy'a Tongne.
Some months ago William Sur

that the tongue cf his son was be

not report the case to a physician
till a day or so ago, when the tongue
had increased to double its natural
size, protrudea lrom tbe lips in a
disgusting manner, and rendered it
impossible for the boy to take nu-i
tnment, save in liquid term. I he
swollen tongue also interfered with
respiration, and the physicians, as a
last resort, determined to trim the
organ down, tnoogn the operation
is very dangerous. The reduction
was successfully effected in a few

How young old people look who
have never been seriously sick, and
who never worrv and fret. How old
young people look who fret and stew
and suffer pain all at once. But
we can't altogether help our disposi
tion, and we will sometimes get out
of sorts in spite of all our caution.
Then we need the best, the simplest
and thesafest medicine known, which
is Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy.
Purifies the blood and renews vital
ity in old and young.
Women are everywhere using and
recommending Parker's" Tonic be
cause they have learned from expe
rience that it speedily overcomes
uesponaency, indigestion, pain or
weakness in tbe back or kidneys,
and other troubles peculiar to the
sex.
"I never patronize patent medi
cines. Don't you? Why not? You
patronize "patent" articles of a hun
dred varieties why not patent med
icines. "Because they are often
worthless." True, but not always,
frequently they are the very best in
the world, representing the widest
experience. At least we know that
Dr. Kennedy's Favorite ilemedy is
one of these, and for all troubles of
the blood, liver and urinary organs
it stands on its merits, and not on
advertising. . .
Sufferers from tbe effects of qui
nine, used as a remeay for chills and
fever, will appreciate Ayer's Ague
cure, a powerful tonic bitters com
posed wholly of vegetable substan
ces, without a particle of any nox
ious drug. Its action is peculiar,
prompt and powerful, breaking up
the chill, curing the fever and expel
ling the poison from the system, yet
leaving no harmful or unpleasant et
ftct unon the patient.
A man in Osceola, AIicb has

"The ladies especially eo into ec-
