A TranUilin frvm the French.
About the -nd of Molier. last year, I
was returning ou fnt from Orleans to
the Chateau det'anly, A n-KUuMit-of
tlie foreign (rurl was marrtiiuK alircast
of me and on the same roal. I had
LaKU'tied mv hIcks to hear the military
in ukic which I liked mi much; but the
band reaiu-d play inif ; a lew taps of the
drum from alar off alone marked the
lueAHured step of the solillem.
After au half hour's tnarrh I saw the
retriuient enter a small field surnMiuded
l.v a rliimu of lir tr-n. I axked a cap
tain whom 1 knew if they were altout
to exervihe.
No. Haul he to me. thev are altout o

my company lor having roiioeu me
woman with whom he was unaltered.
What! saiI I, to judge, condemn and
execute at once T
Yes, naid he, it is aworilitiir to onr
articles of capitulation.
f or him tins wax unanswerable, an

capitulation the clime, the punish
ment, the justice and even the human

the captain, I will get you a place. It
won't Luke loiif.
1 had always a jmSsioii for these sad
Ktft-tac Irs, and I imagined tlmt I could
learn what death was by the face of the
lyiiitr. 1 followed the captain.
The regiment was tormed in a hollow
K'liare ; U liiiul the rear tank and on
llieeilfeot the wood, somo tsoltlicrs
were diKvii'K a ttrrava. They werecoui
manded by a first lieateuant, for e wry -thin

ninth, on tlie iirlil. and more forward,
was Vlilin-f a lew words upon his
knees, but carelessly and only ttiat a
man should not lie killed without home
formalities.
The accused w as called. He was a
tall yonnjr man, of a noble and honest
face. A womau advanced with him,
the only witncf-s who was to testify in
thecae; but when the colonel was
aloiit to interrogate this woman :
"Its Useless," caul the soldier,"! will
confess all. 1 stole the handkerchief
from this woman's house.
'I he Colonel Von Picric ! you were
always an honest fellow.
I'letre It is true my colonel, I have
always tried to satisfy my olliccrs ; and
it was not for myself that I stole it
'twas for Marie.
The Colonel Who is this Marie T
Pierre "Tis Marie who lives yonder
in my village near Arenburtr, where
the Keat apple tiee is. 1 t-lmll never
see her more.
The Colonel I do not understand
yon. Pierre ; explain yourself.
Pierre Well, my Colonel read this.
And he handed to liini the following
letter, every wood of which is present
to my memory ;
my .ooi ii.iknk rif i:i:K: I profit
by the recruit Arnold who is ciiif-'cd
hi your reiriuiciit, to send you this letter
and a siik purse w htch I have made for
you. I w as obliged to hide myself from
my father whiie 1 made it. for he con
tinually scolds me for loving yon so
much, ami says that you will not come
back. Von will come back, won't you t
lint il you never return 1 shall love you
all the same. I promised myself to you
the day von nicked up the blue hand
kerchief at tiie dance iu Arenburtr, and
tirouirhf it back to me. When shall I
see you a-fain T What makes me happy
is, tlmt they say you are esteemed by
your sn-riois and beloved by your
comrades. Hut you have still two
years of service. Let throtlch thciu
ipiick, for then we will Ik- married.
Adieu, my psNl friend Pierre. our
dear Mary.
V. S. Try to send me something from
Prance, not that 1 am afraid that I shall
forget you. but that 1 may wear it
always. Kiss what you send me. lam
sure tlmt 1 shall tind the place of your
kiss a-rain.
When the letter was read Pierre re
sumed. Arnold, said he, pave me this
letter last iiiirht w hen my billet ol quar
ters was received. All niht I could
not sleep. I thought of the villat-'caiul
of Marie. She asked me for wiiiiethiiitr
from Prance. I had no money : 1 had
pledged my par for three months for
my brother and my cousin, w ho had re
turned home a few days hcf-re. This
morning when I anise to leave I ocned
my window. A blue handkerchief was
hancm--: on a line; it resembled that of
Marie's; it was the same color, the same
white slri-ies. I was weak cnon$;h to
take it and put it in my sack. I went
down into the stieet; I rcM-nted of
what 1 had done, and wasaUmt rcturu
iti to the house when this woman ran
after inc. The handkerchief was found
u (ii me, that is the truth. The capit
ulation demands that 1 be shot. Shoot
me, but do not despise me.
The judges could not restrain their
emotiou but, notw ithstamliui;, when
the vote was taken, he was unanimously
condemned to ileath. Jle heard the
verdict with composure: then ap
proaching his Captain, he iM -ed him
to lend him four francs. The Captain
pave them to him. I saw then that he
advanced toward the woman, tit whom
the bine handkerchief had lieeli re
stored, and I heard these onl ' :
"Madame, here are four francs; I don't
kuow if your handkerchief is woith any
more, but even it it should In', 1 pay
dear enough tor it. and you ought to
eieusc.nic for the difference."' Then
taking the handkerchief he kissed it
and gave it to the Captain. "My Cap
tain." said he, "in two years yon will
return to our mountains ; if you go near
to Aienburtr ask tor Marie, give her
this blue handkerchief, but do not tell
her how 1 Itoughl It.''
He then kuelt in prayer and marched
with a tirm step to his execution.
1 reined then and entered the wood
that I luicht not w itness this cruel
tragedy. A few uiuket-shot soon ap
prised me that ail was over. 1 returned
au hour atteiward; the regiment had
departed ; all was quiet ; but 111 skirting
the edge of the wood to regain the road
1 perceived a few paces before me
traces of blood and a heap of earth,
freshly made. I took a branch of Br
tree aul made a sort of cross ; I placed
it ou the grave of HMr Pierre, fort-rot

A Trait riaxtlavai Life.
A w titer tell the following extra
ordinary story of an Indian chiefs
paternal love:
Death hail taken the old chiefs son,
aud his grave was dug on a small
eminence, some furlongs distant from
the fort. On reaching the spot, we
found an immeuse-concourse of native
assembled, among whom the father
and family of the deceased were con
spicuous. The former stood on the
brink of the grave in a desponding
mood ; and, though lie permitted no
outward symptom of grief to appear, it
was yet evident to all that a nnichty and
continued effort alone kept it in re
straint. He apjieared to lie about fifty
years of atte, and his form and features,
tlionirli stern anil swarthv. offered a
model of manly beanty. The mother
and her daughters were loud iu their
expressions of grief; but that of tlie
father, from its very calmness was the
more lemuie, auu i couiu qui out
svinttatuize with feelings so obviously
acute. The weeping and wailing of
the assembled friends were the only
sounds to be heard, and for a long
while the business for which they were
assembled was suspended, as if no one
was willing to impose the last trial of
theur hearts upon the bereaved parents.
At length the father gave astern
order that the body should be deposited
tu the grave : a mandate which was
reluctantly olieyed by her who bad
equal cause to mourn their great loss.
1 he old man then commanded silence,
and. in a resolute tone of voice, Itegan
to address the assembled multitude.
Having culled attention to the different
events of his life, as connected w ith
the rank he occupied, he proceeded to
remind them always addressing him
self to Mr. l .of tbe domestic afflic
tions he had endured; concluding with
the recent death of his eldest and most
tielovcd son, w hose corpse was now le
fore us.
"Now." said the old chief, "the string
of my low is broken, the last hoie of
my declining days lias forsaken me.
Seek not to dissuade me Iroin tne reso
lilt ion i have adopted, for I have re
solved npon billowing linn, and all you
can urge w ill Is?, in vain ; life has no
longer any charm for me. 1 was once
a hunter, but am now no lontrer so.
w its one the proud father of two noble
sous, but, alas ! w here are they t I was
a w arrior, but aai no longer so. Where
fore shall 1 continue to cumlier this
earth with mv useless presence.
The silence that now prevailed was
so deep that not even a breath was audi
ble. The old niau folded his blanket
around him. cast one farewell look on
the fair fields and the broad rolling
river in the vicinity ; and then, to the
surprise of all present, dew-ended com
posedly into the pit, and laid himself
iiixin the corpse of his departed son.
"Throw in the earth, fill up the grave.
cover up my last earthly residence," he
exclaimed. "Nay, do uot hesitate, for
1 nin resolved to die."
Screams of agony arose from the
alllicted wife aud daughters ; vehement
expostulations were resorted to by all
around : but tbe old chief remained
hi in. Not tbe tenderest entreaties of
thoee who were dearest to him among
the living not the eager representa
tions of his frieuds, backed by the
usually influential voice of Mr. D.,
could for an instant shake the resolve
of the self-devoted victim.
"1 w ill die!" said the old man ; "seek
no longer to r vmt it; 1 repeat it, I
will die!
When it was found that all ex post u
lations and entreaties were iu vaiu, the
friends held a clamorous council among
themselves, w hich resulted in a decision
to olM-y the will of thechU-f. When he
saw his wish would be complied with,
he airain spoke and gave directions for
tliti disiiosal of his proitertv ; his horses
were to le divided among his relations,
ten of the finest being hrst given to Mr.
I ., w ho w as looked upon by the Indians
as an adopted lather. .Meanwhile 1 had
advanced to the brink of the grave, in
order to observe narrowly thecouute
nance of the old man. I could perceive
no symptoms of weakness. The same
stem raininess w hich was at first per
ceptible, still continued to characterise
it, and, as the clods of earth hetran to
shower upon him. still uot a muscle re
laxed. Iu the midst of the most fear
ful bowlings and lamentations were
the hurried obsequies performed; the
clay and the sand being tilled iu, the
green sod was at length carefully ar
ranged over the small spot winch
limited the last resting-place of the
living ami the dead.

At the attitointed hour the beggars of

Ihicks are great destroyers of vermin,
and the large number of insects which
of late years have beset our gardens and
fields seem to indicate that their- aid
would be most valuable to any owner of
a garden patch or a field. Ijtrge num
bers of bngt and worms would be dis
posed of by a small flock of ducks.
The aquatic tendencies of these birds
are easily satisfied w Ith a small pool of
water, or even w ith a tun or water set in
the ground. Iu:ks are excellent layers
though somew hat careless about drop
ping their eggs about the yard or Inclo
ure where they are kept. But they are
freat layers, aud are very profitable to
eep for their eggs.
One of the most valuable broods is the
Aylesbury, which takes its name from a
locality In Kngland, where great num
liers are reared for the Inhn market.
This breed was introduced into this
country several years ago. Their color
is a snow white, with a fletdi-eolored
bill and orange-colored Wgs. The liody
is long aud broad-shouldered, with a
long, slender neck and bill. - They at
taiu a large sute full grown ones
weighing about seven pounds each.
I lucks would I seem to be preferable
to geese,- which, are very noisy aud
otherw ise disagreeable, w hile ducks are
comparatively silent. Their eggs are
quite large, weighing about three
ounces. 'Ihe Aylesbury are fine layers,
and are thought to be one of the most
profitable for the egg farmer. A single
pair have Is-en known to lay three
hundred eggs in the course of a year.
They are early layers and good mothers
to their ducklings. .
Matty of our farmers have locations
w ell suited to duck-raising, and it w ould
seem that this might be a profitable
business for such to engage in to a lim
ited extent. The nniuher who now
keep ducks is comparatively few far
less, we believe, than would find it to
their profit. Many sources of revenue
joining together make a considerable in
come, and herein lies one of the secrets
of successful farming.
A ZN'r Iltmse. There are certain
conditions necessary for complete suc
cess in dairying tlie temperature and
freedom front all impurities being the
most prominent. As this branch of
farming is daily becoming more promi
nent, and must continue to increase, the
following suggestions from a corres
pondent of a contemporary, will bp
found of advantage to those who may
contemplate making improvements in
their dairy quarters, or who intend
erecting a new dairy house :
lite dairy house should le built about
four feet below ground ; It is airy, high,
light, dry, cool and detached from any
other building. It is smoothly plastered
inside, and well ventilated. No impure
air of any kind reaches it from without,
and everything within is the perfection
of cleanliness and neatness. It is fur
nished with open racks of lath all around
it, a bench beneath a northern window,
aud a table In the centre. The pans,
which are shallow ones of tin, holding
about ten quarts each, are filled to three
inches in depth, and are placed on the
shelves of the racks. The shelves are
made of lath", m that the cool, fresh air
of the unlk-rooui reaches all parts of
the pan, and sjieedily reduces the milk
to the desired teiujterature. This is
kept at about Si degrees all the year
round by means of a current of cold air,
which is brought into the room through
pipes from the adjoining ice-house in
summer, and by a stove in winter.
The cream is skimmed, after the milk
has stood thirty-six hours, into oaken
casks of forty gallons each. Theehurit-ing-rooui
adjoins the milk-rooiu. The
churns are casks similur in every respect
to those in which the cream is stored.
The churning is done by a small horse
power run by a small pony, which, by
means of a rocking shaft, oierates a
common upright dash. The churning
is made to occupy at least half an hour.
It is held here that first-class butter
cannot be made iu five minutes, by any
of the rapidly working churns. The
butler is worked by a lever fixed to an
iiii liifd table, and tbe buttermilk, as it
Is wotked out. Is ahsorlied by a songe
enveloped in a clean cloth, and dipied
in pure ice-cold water.
(irntriwi Iintf Fruit. How it happens
that by w inding a cord or small wire
alsiut a graie vine or limb of au apple
tree the size of the fruit is increased, is
explained in this way: Ky winding
tightly, a tine annealed w ire around a
branch of gr:te vine or limb of fruit
tree, a little lielow the fruit, the sap Is
not prevented from passing up the sa
w imnI, but, afier it become elnliorated
in the leaves into proier food to grow
the vine, tree or fruit, it passe dow n
the branch, putting on a new layer of
wooo, limn il readies uie wire, wnere
it is stopcd for want of room, and the
nourishment intended for the whole
limb and the root is all expended upon
the fruit and limb above the w ire. The
consequence is, the fruit grows to enor
mous sie, and the limb sw ells out aliove
the wire two years growth in one,
This is easily tried, but should not Is
done till the fruit has set, allowing the
returning sap previous to this to pass
aud nourish tlie parts below sufficient
to prevent any great injury to the root.

While naturalists and entomologists are
puzzling over the discovery of some
plan to prevent the recurrence of the
grasshopper plague in the Western
States during next fall, it would be well
for them to take tbe immense yearly
slaughter of the prairie chickens into
consideration. The numbers of these
birds which are slaughtered each w inter
by trapping after heavy snow storms,
and find their way to the markets, are
something enormous; and as the grass
hoppers constitute a great part ol their
natural fissl, it seems not improbable
that the disappearance of the former
might exercise a very appreciable effect
in the increase orthe devastating insects,
Pwrf Rrrl shire hnn should be jet black
in color, with a thick-set coat of fine
black hair, but choose one with coarse
hair, rather than one that is short of
hair. White is allowable on tips of
ears, feet and legs, face, nose and tail,
out not too much white, as they are
always a black breed, and plenty of
natr denotes good constitution.
Orchariti. Established orchards need
to have the fertility of the soil kept up
give them well-rotted manure. Wood
ashes may almost always be applied
with advantage; old neglected orchards
may be made productive if the soil is
properly worked around the trees, dead
and clinging limbs removed; a dreing

The grajin of stone fruits, as the
plum, cherry, peach, etc.. should be

The Large .BeWk. Prof. F. H. now
baa contributed some intereatiar ob
servations on tbe large beetle, ioovi
as PolyphyUa variotota, to tbe "Trans
actions of tbe Kansas Academy of Sci
ence." This insect occurs abaadaatly
in tbe month of July at Martha' Vine
yard, and some other places along tbe
coast. It is of a light brown color, with
irregular whitish blotches, and meaenrea
nearly an inch in length. Tbe knob of
its antenna? consists of seven narrow
trap-shaped leaves, which in the male
are excessively long. Prof. Snow en
countered in tlie twilight of a July
evening about fifty of these beetles in a
single spot, on the Island of Penekese.
His attention was attracted by the sin
gular actionaof a male that was vigor
ously scratching tbe ground with its
feet, while the leaf-like appendages of
its antennie were widely separated.
"His progress," says Prof. Snow, "being
too slow to suit my purpose, I assisted
him in his excavation, and, at a depth
of half an inch, discovered a female,
who, with head upward, was struggling
to reach tbe surface, baring evidently
but just emerged from the papa. A
little further on, another male was
busily scratching the soil ; and another
female was unearthed directly under
neath ; while a moment later two rival
males were discovered digging for a
third female, who was buried nearly an
inch below the surface."
Hy what fine sense did these beetles
discover tbe exact locality of their
mates under tbe ground t Professor
Snow believes that tbe antenuie of tbe
male are extremely sensitive to sound
vibrations, and thus that tbe insect
bears tlie efforts made by the female to
dig her way out of the earth, and so is
directed to the precise spot where sbe
isentomlted.
Gelatine. The interesting and singu
lar fact appears that millions of dollars
cover tlie value of the gelatine industry
in tli is country, and this value is said to
lie still greater in Europe. The purest
form of commercial gelatine is known
as isinglass, the beat being prepared
from the air-bladders and sounds of
three or four species of sturgeon. These
tissues are cleansed, dried and scraped,
forming what is termed leaf isinglass,
or they are twisted into various forms
called long and short staple, or folded
into packages and called book isinglass.
The Kussian isinglass has always held
tbe highest rank iu tbe market, bat its
manufacture is very simple. Tbe swim
ming bladders of the fish are first placed
in hot water, carefully deprived of ad
hering blood, cut open longitudinally
and exposed to the air, with the inner
delicate silvery membrane - upward ;
a ll- n dried, this line membrane is re
moved by beating and rubbing and the
swimming bladder is theu made into
the forms desired.
Machinery is employed to rnt isin
glass into the delicate filaments in
which it is usually sold. A solid gela
tine, in thin plates and strings, is
manufactured iu large quantities in
France, to answer the purjiose of isin
glass. The best is transparent, and is
S re pa red from the gelatine of boues, by
igestion in dilute hydrochloric acid
and long boiling in water. It is much
cheaper than the first described article,
as well as decidedly inferior. Tbe same
may be said of another variety, known
as opaque gelatine, which is prepared
from the cuttings of skins.
Panoramic PhoUtarapkt. M. J. F.
Plucker, of tbe Belgian Photographic
Association, contributes an ingenious
method of producing panoramic prints
from two or more negatives. Tbe ne
gative must be taken so as to inclnde,
at tbe edges where the junction is to be
made, a portion of the subject in com
mon. This portion is printed from one
of tbe negatives npon a slip of paper,
which is divided in the center with a
penknife. The two halves are then
attached to tbe negatives in such a
manner as to exactly cover the portion
it is intended to "stop out" of each, a
piece of opaque paper, tbe size of tbe
negatives used, being also gummed on
for tbe purpose of protecting tbe sensi
tive paper, which is not covered bv tbe
negative. Tbe first negative is placed
in a printing frame large enough to
hold tbe number of negatives intended
to be combined, and, after printing, tbe
extremities of the line of junction are
carefully marked with a pin point.

Silk-Culture. The International Con
gress on Silk-Culture will hold its fifth
meeting at Milan in 187ti. A programme
of experiments to lie made during l7-
has been sent to all silk-cnltonsts of
Europe. The programme indicates the
questions concerning the raising of
silk-worms and the prevention of dis
eases that require the most serious
attention. The disease of "inactivity.'
that has lately done great damage to
the silk crop, is to be particularly ob
served. All means to remedy it barfc
hitherto proved inetl'ectaal, but it is
hoped that, with investigators like
Cornalia, Dnclaux, Bolle, and others
engaged in studying tbediseases raging
among silk-worms and their ova. the
conditions for securing health among
them may be ascertained.
Artifivially-cvtrml Plants. A rare
collection of artificially-colored plants
from China is on exhibition in the great
glass house of tbe Acclimatization Gar
dens in tbe Hois de Boulogne, Paris.
One of tbe most curious things in tbe
collection is a dwarf oak that is nearly
100 years old. It is about 30 inches in
height, its trunk is as thick as a finger,
or, say, an inch in diameter, and its
roots will hardly fill the hollow of a
man's hand. It is in dwarfing plants
that the art of the Chinese agriculturist
is most strikingly manifested.

Until this can be done great many
couples think they must board. To be
gin as their fathers and mothers did is
not to be thought ot. now eaa tney ne
happy in just two or three rooms, with
out any parlor or any tine furniture ?
Household happiness, then, is a matter
of tapestries and gildings, and carvings
and draperies. V es, in some cases, that
is all there is of it, and those whose as
pirations stop with the possession of
these externals mast fain content them
selves with these. . Bat there are those
who look deeper and higher for domes
tic felicitv than in the mere fireside
surroundings of even the most luxuri
ous home. For such is this little essay
designed.
, It seems fitting - that when "the
solitary are set in families," they should
set np immediately their own house
hold gods and make sure to themselves
such seclusion as will enable tbem to
lay without any disturbing influences
from without the foundations of their
domestic structure. Each family is a
unit with properties peculiar to itself, a
solution with laws of crystallization all
its own, and it is impossible for any
father or mother or friend to interfere
wisely and attempt to regulate tbe ac
tion of these laws and say thus or thus
they must operate. ' Suggestions deli
cately given are barely admissible, but
tbe inner sanctuary of the borne Itelongs
solely to the dnal aniu any other per
son entering there is guilty of sacrilege.
No boarding house, no private family,
no hotel ran afford a married pair tlie
seclusion, tbe independence, the free
dom they can have in even two or three
rooms of which they are sole pro
prietors and where thev "keen house."
Curious eyes are prying into their
affairs, busy tongues tueddle with their
actions, officious friends try to help
tbem, aud they miss tbe supreme joy of
seeing tbe delicious growths of gracious
household ways that can spring only
from the garden inclosed of a sacred
borne, if they have uot this seclusion.
If young married people, instead of
thinking what Mrs. urundy will say
about their style, their resources and
their expenditures would put this mischief-making
dame entirely outside
their thoughts, and taking into sole
consideration their own requirements.

with china or stone ware, with stuffed
damask or cane seats; these no more
create the nagpiness ot a home than
draperies create the beauty of the per
fect human form. Thongh very .well
in their way, they are the merest ac
cidents, and have no vital connection
with the home. Nay, unless there is
"that within which passeth show,"
these outside trappings are mockeries
and tortures to the love-hungry heart.
It m also to be consideied that the out
side world knows tbe circumstances
(pecuniary) of young couples geuerally
about as well as they do themselves,
and just how much of a spread they
can afford to make. No one is deceived
by a grand display. It is surely not
worth while to begin life with hypocrisy.
It is well to come into an estate by de
grees, sua the tun estate of housekeep
ing constitutes no exception to this re
mark. The simple joy of having a
borne, however humble, all to their two
selves, is or ought to be enough in the
beginning for any reasonable pair. Let
them add little by little as they are
able aud their requirements increase ;
each addition will be a separate pleasure
multiplying all tbe rest, and the delight
of buildintr an a home may thus be
prolonged through years of growiug
wealth and felicity nay, may be pro
longed till the twain pass to that state
where there is neither marry jug nor
giving in marriage.
Keeping Warm. One way not to keep
warm is to drink freely of hot drinks ;
to keen the pores of the skin closed :
to eat more than can be digested ; to
sit over a hot air furnace ; to lace
tightly ; wear tight garters, tight shoes,
tight gloves, and bundle up with
"heaps or warm clothing; wear
mu tillers around the neck, and avoid a
breath of cool, fresh air ; take wine or
Hitters Detore meals, and pills to aid
digestion after eating. Do this dally a
month or more, and you will be as
tender as a tropical house plant, and
will take "dreadful colds" on the slight
est exposure. Hot drink just before
going out are especially favorable to in
duce chills; and this is tbe way many
are trying to cheat nature and prolong a
miserauie existence. Hcienre oj limit.
Kitty ilode of Sharpening KiUje Ttmlt.
The simplest mode of sharpening i
razor or other edtre tool, is to place the
blade for about half an hour in water
containing one-twentieth of its weight
of sulphuric or muriatic acid. I'pon
taking the razor out, wipe it off lightly
on a piece of soft ratr, aud in a few
hours afterward "set" it on a strop.
Tbe acid supplies tbe nlaott of a whet
stone, by corroding the entire surface
uniformly, so that nothing bnt a good
polish is afterward needed. This pro
cess never injures good razors, wit ile
poor ones are improved ny it.

Sum Fnnnu Printer's Binders. An
article on "Printer's Blunders," in a
New York joarnal, gives some amnslng
examples, as for instance, the following :
Tbe misplacement of a "space" made
Adirondack Hurray recently refer to
"them asses of tbe people'' when he
meant the masses. Whittier's "Brewing
of the Soma" was printed "Burning of
Laura." A dramatic criue c rosea nis
notice just in time for tbe making up
with "a word of compliment" to tne
music director, and found it printed "a
word of complaint." Tbe Dunkers the
most sober ot people, nenerally appear
as "Drunkards." General Butler begged
tbe voters in ISC7, to give a good account
of themselves for the honor of the Old
Bay State, ami an enthusiastic com
positor produced it as "for the bouor of
the Old Boys Jan." A printer wno
asserted that Mr. Thurlow weed nad
ottee goue out of his way to compliment
him ou close punctuation and clean set
ting, made one of the most ridiculous
blunders on record. It was a portion
of a sermon of a prominent divine of
Chicago, that bad been written, "And
he saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in
his bosom." The "clean setter" read
it, "And he saw Abraham afar off aud
a horse's ear in Boston." A compositor
on a SLLouis paper, the other day, made
an editor say, "this war-cry is the key
hole of victory."
Many other curious stories are told of
the strange work types w ill make wun
what a man says or writes. Ir. Bethiine
once introduced into a sermon tlie sen
tence, "While men slept the Devil sowed
tares." Judge of his surprise w hen he
found himself reported, iu a religious
journal, as saying, "The IVvil sawed
trees." An editor Wrote of the burial
of a young man, "Disconsolate friends
stood riveted to the spot;" but bis own
compositors made biiu say, "Disconso
late fiends stood riveted to the snort."
In the manuscript of his "Still Hour,"
Professor Phelps wrote, "A dead calm
at sea," but in the hook It reads, "A
dead clam at sea." William Jay, of
Bath, once preached a sermon from the
text, "All that a man hath will he give
for his life." It was printed, and w hen
the proof-sheets came to him fur correc
tion, he found the text resiling, "All
that a man hath will be give for bis
wife." Instead of correcting the error,
In the usual way, he wrote on the mar
gin. "Tbat deends on circumstances."
At a recent examination of a class in
chemistry, in a professional school, the
first two questions were: "Define the
word Vheuilstry' aud the word 'atom. "
On collecting the students books, the
following is all the professor found
writteu lu one: "Chemistry, a very
inMrtant study. In which I have not
made sufficient progress to warrant my
attempting any solution of its riddles.
An atom may be said to express. In a
figurative way, the state of my feelings
when I refltH't that the confession lut
pllud lu the above statement is as true as
it Is humiliating."
A BinUm lady, while In Paris, two
years ago, sent a letter to her sweetheart,
a ship captain, addressing it to St.
Helena. It missed the wanderer and
followed him about the world, finally
returning to Paris, where the captain's
hanker forwarded it to Boston. It
reached him one evening as he was
bouncing a 0-weeks old baby on bis
knee, he having married the writer of
the letter a year ao. Tbat letter could
not have followed him more persistently
if it hail been a dun.
The following stanzas are given as
suitable reading for lovers, now that the
season of European travel has set in :
She What will you do, love, when I

TViir ago the pretty school teacher
used to collar the boys and w allop 'em

the same, and pounds them just as hard,

A servant of an old maiden lady, a
patient of Dr. Poole, formerly of Edin

ibs-tor every morning to report the state
of her health, how she had slept, etc.,
with strict Injunctions always to add
"with her compliments." At length,
one morning the girl brought this ex
traordinary message: "Miss S 's

tt'hm you see a sofa and two lengths

lengths of cariiet hanging front them,
and a child at the front eating bread and

Be good-natured if yon can, for there

admirable. A face that is full of the
expression of amiability is always liean
tiful. It needs no paint and no powder;
eostueatics are superfluous: rouge cannot
improve cheeks nor lily w hite mend its
complexion. Its loveliness lies beyond
all this. It is not the beanty that is bnt

C'liaaate Ckmaged by Has.
It is well known tbat many parts of
Greece, aud Palestine, and Asia Minor,
which were ouce luxuriant in fertility,
are now barren. The change is sup
posed to be owing to the loss of forests
which has lessened tbe amount of rain,
and dried np the fountaius and streams.
The frequent drouths in our country,
are probably owluar to the same cause.
Iu Egypt a change for tbe better is
going on, as Bayard Taylor states in
bis "Letters," just published. The
opening of canals, like the Suez Canal,
the extension ot railroads and the
planting of trees, have produced a
double change of climate. Kaius have
become more frejnent. Formerly, in
Cairo there were ouly four or five rainy
days a year; now tbe average number
is twenty-oue. In tbe Delta there were
formerly about eight ; now they aver
age forty. This increase of rain has
led to the cultivation of large areas of
laud formerly barren : and tbe gains
amount to twenty or thirty per. cent.,
adding largely to productive wealth.
Another change, not so agreeable, is in
temperature.. The rains bring cooler
weather, and there are mauy days
when hres are almost a necessity, w hich
were formerly unknown.

Dyspepsia is the most Pernlexin? of
all human ailments. Its symptoms are
almost infinite in their variety, and the
forlorn and despondent victims of the
disease often fancy themselves the

This is due, in part, to the close sym
pathy which exists between the stom

tbe fact that any disturbance of the
