JftjMBfte Screens.
The decoration on t lie screens is of
three kinds in painting;, embroider
er? and silk relief. The embroidery
shows the name care and exactness
that one finda in other branches of
Japanese art ; the color used ae gen
erally ahai ply contracted, and there is
no difficulty in comprehending the in
tent of the moiter. Favorite subjects
jor enioroiUery are figures of men, am
mats and buds, particularly the
latter. Anions the birds, the stork has
the most prominent place, and sou bud

rjyin. wading or resting-, lou can

very comical ei pi ession, as though he
were laughing at his fellow Btoi k who
has fallen into trouble. The Japanese
art if t s evidently posesa a keen sense
of humor, aud some of their pictures
remind the spectator of the productions
of Beard and his confreres in the school
of humorous art. Decoration in silk
relief is peculiar, I believe, to the
orientals, aud certainly the Japanese
have no rivals here in this branch of
art. Little plaques of silk are laid on
the face of the picture, so that the fig
ures stand out fioin the flat material,
and appear to be pressed in their pro
per garments. Some of the screens in
this sty le are exquisitely done ; there is
one where a lot of grasshoppers are
represented in procession, the insects
being of the natuial size. Their wings,
legs, antenna? aud beads are all laid on
by this process, aud so delicately that
the real grasshoppers seem to have
been pressed down upon the silk and
made to adhere by means of paste or
mucilage. Several of the sen ens are
ornamented with pictures of fans, some
open, some closed, and others all the
way from nearly open to nearly closed.
These fans are covered with pictures.

Drawing; Among- the T roar lode; tea.
Strange as it appears, these people
evinced, notwithstanding their other
wise low condition, a decided taste for
drawing and even for carving. Their
delineations traced with a pointed flint
on born, bone, ivory, or slate, consist
occasionally in geometrical figures
composed of parallel lines, rows of
dots, lozenges, etc., but mostly in out
lines of fishes or of quadrupeds, such
as the horse, reindeer, stag, ibex, au
rochs, mammoth, and others. These
animals appear either single or in
irrenn, and often exhibit their charac
teristic features in a degree to render
them recognizable almost at the first
glance. Sometimes, however, the
drawings resemble the first awakened
attempts of children at representing
animals, in whith cases, of course, it
remains doubtful what creature the
primitive artist intended to delineate,
whether an ox, a burse, a reindeer, or
some other quadrnped. Such repre
sentations have chiefly been found at
the stations of Les Eyzies, Laugerie
Basse, aud La Madelaine. The figures
of animals are often traced on the
stems of beams of reindeer antlers,
which are iu such cases carefully
worked, aud pierced at the broader ex
tremity with round hoies, varying in
num tier from one to four. These re
niai kahle objects can not have served

day iudicate the dignity of a marshal.
ine number ot holes in these decora

been proportionate to the portion oc

form a society in which the distinctions

Training Children.
An ancient physician when asked
his opinion as to the time when child's
education should be commenced, re
plied : "Begin twenty years before he
is born, by training his mother." The
old doctor was right. The best inheri
tance a boy can have is a sensible
mother. Unless a child is possessed of
a very peculiar disposition, his mother
can make him anything she pleases. A
, mother should aim to lift her children
to l4l'&her plane than her own, by giv
ing them I2ore healthful bodies, a wider
and more systematic education, and a
higher sense of moral espoT4Ji,i!'ty
To accomplish this she must begin
when they are verv young, and make
them, so far as she can, acquainted
with the world of nature around them,
and always meet their curiosity and de
veloping thoughtfulness with sympa
thy and attentive respect.
1 consistency .
How strange a thing it is that some
men will engage in business for which
their nature wholly unfits them! An
unaccommodating man. for instance,
who is too indolent, too proud, or too
indifferent to make himself agreeable to
customers, should never turn shop
keeper. Yet. how many do it! That
kind of man, too. should never become
the landlord of a tavern or hotel. Yet
how many do it! They inevitably
meet with no success in business, be
cause more urbane, obliging and pleas
ing dealers absorb their custom; but
still the error is repeated, and people
rush into business now because it pays
just as they used to do, and without
pausing to consider whether their man
ners, habits, address, etc., are adapted
to invite prosperity, or render it next
to impossible.
mi per.
Few men have sweet tempers, or hold
snch as tbey possess under steady, in
variable control, though there are men,
who. without this sweetness of nature,
however much tried, never seem to
lose their self-command. No public
man can get on long who haa not his
temper well in hand ; but with the
same amount of inflammable particles,
men differ very much on the occasions
that set tire to them. Some people, who
are all composure when we might rea
sonably expect and justly excuse an
explosion, will break down into pee
vishness, or passing freuzy on slight
provocations. We have known men,
quite remarkable for well bred seren
ity, be unreasonably and childishly tes

raise a good crop of onions, corn or po

twenty to forty tons of good stable ma

may say, put on one ton of phosphate
or guauo and you will save time and
trouble in hauling, and will get jnst as
good a crop. But I don't believe that

Weeds. These, and destructive In
sects are the two great enemies of the
cultivator. The best way to treat weeus
is to allow them no entrance. We once
asked a nurseryman whose thirty-five
acres were not encumbered wltn one.
'How do vou destroy all the weeds so
efiectually T" The answer was, "We
ao not destroy them ; for we never al
low them an entrance." If the surface
is frequently and thoroughly raked, be
fore auy weeds can ever appear above
the surface, in the garden ; or as fre
quently harrowed on a larger scale, on
the farm the weeds cau never get
started. This is the cheapest mode of
treatment. The other modes are In
relative cost, about in the following
ratio: It will cost a dollar to keep ten
square rods of garden clean by frequent
raking, before the weeds reach the sur
face; then to kill them with a sharp hoe
when two or three inches nign, seven
to twelve dollars, and if much hand
weeding is required the expense may
be doubled. There is no reason why
every weed in a garden or farm may
not be eradicated. We have seen a hun
dred-acre farm kept perfectly clear
from ox-eye daisy not a single plant
of it to be seen in the midst ot a re
gion where all other farms were white
with it- We have seen a twelve acre
lot, in the whole of which quack grass
formed a continuous mass, perfectly
cleared of it in a single season. We
have seen a two-hundred acre farm on
which a single plant of chess could not
be found although adjacent farmers nau
plenty of this weed. It had been thor
oughly eradicated, and not a solitary
chess seed could be found in this mau's
granarv, 11 farmers witn oroau acres
could thus completely root out certain
weeds, they could as well aa others;
and gardeiiB, on a more limited scale,
might be kept perfectly clean.
Farm Gates. I wou'.d like to give
your readers a plan of a gate which 1
have used lor the last twenty years, J
think it the best barn-yard gate in use.
The gate runs on wheels, on a board
laid on the ground, extending back as
far as it runs, it moves back netween
double temporary fence. To make
the gate, first lay down two boards, one
at the top and one at the bottom. The
top and bottom boards are double, or
one on either side of braces. Now lay
on your end and brace strips, then lay
on rati -boards and nail all solid to
gether. I use 6 inch boards for bottom
and 4 inch for the reft. I would like
to give some of the advantages of this
gate: r irst, it costs scarcely nothing
to make; ten cents worth or malleable
nails is all the iron used for a gate, and
any farmer can make them by burning
common nails. It is always in the
right place, not blown around by the
wind when left unfasieued. If you
have a wild team of colts you can open
and shut this gate and not let go the
lines. No extra posts are used, anv
common fence-post is sufficient. It
never sags.
EarltCTt Uaass Best. The Ger
mans publish details of a series of ex
periments carried on at the agricultu
ral schools of Fatherland, for the pur
pose of testing the nutritive properties
of grass and bay at various stages. The
exieriments were initiated by the ex
cessive demand for forage In Germany
but are none the less valuable on that
account. By an elaborate series of
analyses, it is shown why young grass
is more nutritious than m iture grass.
The physiological experiments show
that it Is more easily digestible. That
grass 5 inches high contains nearly
fifty iter cent, more of albumenoids than
grass which is six inches high, and
ten more of "crudy fat." I he mature

Draining Wet Lands. A con?-8-
pondent of the New England FaraeT
has drained a once worthless part of
his farm, and made it wonderfully pro
ductive. The meadow was divided by a
crooked stream, which rendered it too
wet for cultivation, but by digging
straight ditcn through it, three feet
wide aud three feet deep with perma-
nient wall' to support the banks, and
running other drains into this, the
land has been improved, until it now
produces immense crops of hay and
grain, iseveuty-'flve bushels of corn,
aud from seventy-five to one hundred
bushels of oats to the acre, have been
raised on the land since the drains
were completed. The expense of drain
ing the land has been paid for several
times already.
Maxt grape vines so oveabear that
the fruit cau not ripen perfectly, and in
some cases varieties that naturally ripen
well every season will fail to ripen at
all, owing to the roots not being able to
sustain the Immense crop of fruit upon
the vines. Jn cases where grapes fail
to ripen from this cause, the bunches
should be thinned out with a pair of
scissors when the berries are small, as
soon as tbey are well formed; and cut
away tbe stnallest clusters, and those
that show a straggling propensity in
the fruit. By so doing a crop of splen
did fruit may be produced where it
would have been worthies without
being thinned out.

The Movement of Storm Centre. In
Meteorology, the most interesting pa
per that haa recently appeared is that
by W. C. Ley, published in the Jour
nal of the Scottish Meteorological Soci
ety. Mr. Ley presents an attempt at a
philosophical explanation of the move
ment of storm centres bnt it is his
statistical researches that are of espe
cial value, sine, like those of Loom is,
they pave the way for the correct un
derstanding of the subject. He states
that be himself belongs to those who
believe that a cyclonic system is not to
be treated as an eddy in the prevailing
currents, and that its westward or
eastward motion is not wholly due to
the force of those currents. He finds
from his extensive studies that the
mean tracks of storm centres show a
general coincidence with prevailing
winds, and individual depression show
a tendency to travel aromd temporary
local areas of high barometer, keeping
the latter on the right hand in the
European storms. A suggestion of Mr.
Robert Tennet seems to have led bim
during the past year to examine whe
ther there is any connection between
the movement of the storm centre and
the position of its steepest barometric
gradients. He finds that of 800 storms
passing near Great Britain during niue
years the large majority bad a tenden
cy to move in directions parallel to the
trend of the steepest gradients; thus
when the isobars are closest on the
southeast side, the tangents trend to
ward the uortheast, and fifty-five per
cent, of these storms move iu the same
direction. He finds also evidences of
a less ioiortaut disturbing force ten
ding to make the depressions move to
ward the northeast by ease It would
be interesting to compare Ley's rules
with the behavior of American storms.

Atlantic coast. U arper's Magazine.

Near Amsterdam Island, in tbe South

in tbe Antarctic Ocean, consisted of
exauisite star-like crystals which

Oil Pipe Lines. The total mileage of
iron pipe used in the oil region is
placed by good authority at not far
tiom 1,500 miles, some asserting 2,000
miles to be nearer tbe trnth. This is
owned by the following pipe line com

ing 48 miles of main pipe. 3 inches in
diameter, and 48 miles of connections,

was pumped, this line cost 5400.000.
Taking 1,500 miles as tbe quantity of

Changes of Climate. Dr. Pilar, from
the study of tbe phenomena presented

there is indubitable evideuce ot a for

same scieuuat cues the abandonment in

How to Treat Scxstsor. The re
port of the Sanitary Committee of the
Board of Health or New York City,
upon sunstroke, says: "sunstroke
caused by excessive heat, and especially
if the weather is "muggy." It is more
apt to occur on the second, third, or
fourth day of a heated term than on the
first. Loss of sleep, worry, excitement,
close sleeping rooms, deDility, and
abuse of stimulants predispose. It

Tom's Happy Hot Scxdat. Another
Extract from Mark Twain's Xeie Book.
The minister gave out hi text, and
droned along monotonously through an
argument which was so prosy that
tuanv a head, by and by. began to nod.
and yet it was an argument that dealt
in limitless fire and orimsione, anu
thinned the predestined elect down to
com nan r so small as to be hardly worth
the saving. Tom counted the pages of
the sermon; after church be always
knew how many pages there had been
but he seldom knew anything else about
the discourse. However, this time he
was reallr interested for a little while.
The minister made a grand and moving
Dlcture of the assembling together of
the Tortd's hosts at the millennium
when the lion and the lamb should lie
down together, and a little child should
lead them But tbe pathos, the lesson,
the moral, of the great spectacle were
lost upon the boy; he ouiy tnougnt oi
the conspicuousiess of the principal
character before the oulooking nations
bis face lit up with the thought, and In
said to himself he wished he could be
that child, if it was a tame lion.
Now he lapsed into suffering again as
the drv argument was resumed. He
bethought himself of a treasure he had
anil got it out. It was a large black
beetle with formidable jaws, a "i.lnch
bug" he called it. It was in a percussion-cap
box. The first thing the beetle
did was to take liiiu by the linger.
natural fillip followed, the beetle went
floundering into the aisle, aud lit on its
back, and the hurt nuger went Into tne
boy's mouth. The beetle lay there
working its helpless legs, unable to turn
over. Tom eyed It, and longed for it,
but it was safe out of his reach. Other
people, uninterested in the sermon
found relief lu the beetle, aud they eyed
it, too.
Presently a vagrant poodle dog came
idling along, sail at heart, lazy with the
summer soilness and the quiet, weary
of captivity, sighing for change. He
spied tbe beetle; the drooping tail lifted
aud wagged. He surveyed the prze
walked around It; smelt or It from :
safe distance; walked round it again
grew bolder, and took a closer smell
then lifted his lip, and made a gingerly
snatch at it. just missing It; made an
other and another ; began to enjoy the
diversiou ; subsided to his stomach with
the beetle between his paws, aud con
tinued his experiments; grew weary at
last, and then indifferent and absent
minded. His head nodded, and little
by little his chin descended and touched
tbe enemy, who seized it. There was a
sharp yelp, a flirt of the poodle's head.
and the beetle fell a couple of yards
away, and lit on its back once more
The neighboring spectators snook witn
a gentle inward joy, several faces went
behind fans and handkerchiefs, and
Tom was entirely happy. The dog
looked foolish, and probably felt so
but there was resentment in his heart,
too. and a craving for revenge. So he
weut to the beetle and began a wary at
tack on it again; jumping at it from
every point of a circle, lighting with
his fore paws within an inch of the
creature, making even closer snatches
at It with his teeth, aud jerking his
head until his ears flapped again. But

tried to amuse himself with a fly, but
found no relief; followed an ant
around, with his nose close to the floor,
and, quickly wearied of that, yawned.
sighed, forgot the beetle entirely, and
sat down ou it! Then there was a wild
yelp of agony, and the poodle went sail
ing up the aisle; the yelps continued
and ao did the dog; be crossed the house
in front of the altar; he flew dowu the
other aisle; he crossed before the doors
be clamored up the home stretch ; his
anguish grew with his progress, till
presently lie was a woolly comet, mov
ing in its orbit with the gleam and
speed of light. At la.it the frantic
sufferer sheered from its course and
sprang into its master's lap; he flung it
out ol the window, and the voice oi dis
tress quickly thinned away aud died in
the dk-taiice.
Tom Sawyer went home Quite cheer
ful, thinking to himself that there was
some satisfaction about divine service
when there was a bit of variety in it.
He had but one marring thought; he
was willing that the dog should play
with his pinch bug, but he did not

Mental Food. Good bread is the
staff of life, and if we lean on that we
grow strong and healthy. If we bring
od our children on plain, wholesome
diet, they grow tall, erect, strong, and
healthy. But it we reea tnem on ncn
cake and fancy pastry, and fill their
stomachs with all sorts of trash, spiced
up to tempt the appetite beyond what
nature requires, their appetites become
depraved, and they loathe the food
beat calculated to make them grow
healthy and strong ; and. in consequence,
they grow pale, poor, puny, and weak.
Just so with the mind. Our minds
onght to become clear and strong, en
lightened and elevated. 1 here is tooa
that is healthy and nutritious for the
mind. Hut the literarv rooks bave
served the pnblic with so much highly
seasoned food that the tastes of their
readers, especially of tbe young, bave
become vitiated, and tbey turn with
disgust, from good, solid, instructive
reading, which would improve their
mental powers, and make them intel
lectually strong, aud help them to be
come useful members of society. But
they eagerly devour literary pastry, if
highlv smced. I hev crave sensational
reading ; romance and fiction ; pathe
tic comic and tragic. And this excit
ing reading, so stimulating to the
brain, is tempting, and they read too
much. The consequence is, their minds
become dwarfed and sickly, l ney
gain no real knowledge, but the brain
is weakened, tbe memory ruined, and
intellectual vigor destroyed ; and these
mental dyspeptics are about as unfit to
grapple with tbe stern realities of life
as a worn out, haggard, physical dys
peptic is to endure the hardships of a
soldier's life in a campaign against tbe

TkeSaek Tree.
A notable tree is the sack tree.
of
Western India, the inner bark of which
form very good material for sacking,
and also for cordage. It often attains
a height of one hundred feet, with a
diameter ot six. The native method
of making sacks of this material is rerv
simple. Usually about one foot in di
ameter is chosen, and from this a sec
tion of the length desired for the sack
is cut .This log is steeped for some time
in water, iu order to soften the bark,
and is then beaten with clubs. In this
way the o iter bark is removed and the
i mer detached and rendered soft and
pliable. Next, it ia folded over on it
self at the end. like skinning a squir
rel, and turned inside out. All that is
r quired to complete the sack is, that
one of tbe ends be tied np, which is
readily done. But a sack may be made
without stitch or seam. This is doue
by ai resting the progress of skinning
some two or three inches above the
farther end of the log, aud then sawing
off the latter at that point. The sack
has then a solid wooden bottom. These
sacks are extensively used in Western
ludia, Ceylon, and serve their purpose
weli. Tbe same material is sometimes
employed in the manufacture of cloth
iug and for paper-making. To prepare
it for tbe former purpose, tbe bark is
stripped off iu pieces, which ate then
thoroughly soaked and beaten out till
the texture becomes white and rough
Ilk fur. It ia then cut according to
the r quired shapes, and stitched together.

It is probably no exaggeration to say
that more has been wi itten regarding
the Temple at Jerusalem than in re
spect to any other building in the
known world, and unfortunately.
may added, more that is wild and ut
terlv untenable. This last perul:
atiry arises from several causes. First.
because all tbe earlier restorers were
entirely ignorant of the ground on
wnicb tbe lemple stood, and of tbe
local circumstances that governed its
construction ; it was not, indeed, till
tbe spot was surveyed by the late Mr,
Catherwood in l,and his plan pub
lished on a sufficient scale in 1)2, that
restorers bad such a map of the ground
as would enable them to adjust their
measurements to the locality withany
thing like certainty. Though that
plan was wonderfully perfect consider

for all aicbitectural. purposes.
second cause of the wildnesa of the re
storations hitherto attempted is that
tbe lemple at Jerusalem was quite
unique. .Sot only had the Jews only
this one temple, but. so far as we know,
it was entirely of their own invention
and utterly unlike the temples of any
of the nations around them. It cer
tainly, at all events, wan quite unlike
tbe temples of the Egyptiansor Greeks.
It may have had affinities with those
of tbe Babylonians or Assyrians: but,
notwithstandingall that has been done
of late years, we know so very little of
what the the temples of Mesopotamia
were, that these haidly help ns even at
this day. and the assumption that this
might be so was of no use whatever
to earlier restorers. Having thns do
tnalogies to gnide them, and as it is
literally and absolutely trne that not
one stone remains on another of the
Temple, properly so called, it is not to

are claimed to do. I will only mention
one as remarkable (though I could give

dealer, of this place, wbo was one of tbe
most pitiful objects ever seen, his face
swollen out of shape, scales and erup

body, which was completely covered
with blotches and scales. Nothing chat
he took seemed to effect it a particle. I
finally induced him to try a few bottles
of the Golden Medical Discovery, with
daily nse of the Pellets, assuring bim it
would surely cure him. He commenced
iu use some six weeks since, taking two
Pellets each night for a week, then one
each night, and the Discovery as direc
ted. The result is, to-day his skin Is
perfectly smooth, and the scaly erup

seven or eight bottles in all, and con
