Until the morn return j

A little lamp to burn.

To sing and lose the song.

Among the world' gar throng.
To know that day is here.
To see that spring has gone.
And summer's death is near
And still the hours roll on.
We fail, we fade, we die.

A curious list of translators' mistakes
or mistakes made in translation, might
be made oat. Thus the Abbe Viel,
writing of Canterbury, and misled by
the word "canon," stated the cathedral
was surrounded by artillery- The
primate of all England was ap
parently in his eyes a military ecclesi
astic, like the ancient Yladika of Mon
tenegro. Guizot. in bis "Life and
Times of Shakespeare' has, writing in
English, expressed a hope that Shakes
peare might be more and more "tra
duced" for the benefit of the French.
Authors' mistakes, however, belong
only indirectly to the subject of book
making; nor is it always wise to point
them out. Indeed as a famous "prin
ter's reader" once remarked in a poeni
on the subject of his own occupation,
ailed "Corrector Typographicus" to
the man who corrects the errors of
auother (and who ever thinks of cor

as a Legitimist. Apart from errors
made by themselves, a good many au
thors have been the cause of errors,
sometimes very droll ones, made by
others. Guariuo's "I'astor Eido'' has

Mr. Hill Kurton fur stating that Mr.
Kuskin's "Notes on the Construction of
Mieepfoids" was much asked for
among iuuiiland farmers, and that ; great
disappointment was caused by their
discovery of the real nature of the
work; Miss Edgeworth has herself told
how her "Essay on Irish 15ulls" was
ordered by an agricultural association;
Mr. Swinburne's "Under the Micro
scope" was classed by German pub
lishers as a scientific woik, and Henri
Murger's ".Scenes de la Vie de Boheme"

makers have shown themselves quite
as ingenious in misapprehending their
authors'intentions as catalogue-makers
themselves. The compiler of some
"Annual Record" is said to have been
much annoyed at finding that in his in
dex, which he had intrusted to other
hands, no reference was made to Par
liamentary proceedings. So at least it
it seemed until at last under the head
of "Public Meetings," he discovered
"Meeting of Parliament." A very in
dustrious index-maker, who letnotuing
escape him except now and then the
main subject of the sentence he was
dealing with, made in his index the
following entry : "Greatness of Mind,
instance of." This corresponded with
a passage in the body of the work which
related how a certain Judge had de
clared that he had "a great mind to
send the accused to prison without the
oution of a fine." Errors arrising from
hasty and inconsiderate cutting down
are to be met with, not in books (for an
author always cuts himself down with
remarkable tenderness,) but iu care
lessly edited newspapers. A barrister
of my acquaintance was much irritated
at seeing it stated one morning in a
London journal that he had defended a
certain person, "who was accordingly
convicted." The chief causes of the

him, were not given. In connection

The name has been spoken so many

disappeared altogether. Since then,
the young man has "ransacked the

Tobias Smollet, the novelist, poet,
genius, and traveller, best remembered,
Derhans. bv the average English reader
as the author of "Roderick Random,"
lost his father at an early age, and as
his mother had been left poor, he was
taken in charge, and educated by his
grandfather. At the age of nineteen he
had served a term of apprenticeship
with a physician in Glasgow, when, his
grandfather having died without mak
ing further provision for him, he went
to London, there to strike out for him
self. He carried with him the manu
script of a tragedy, called the "Regi
cide," upon which he placed great
reliance, but he found no manager
willing even to read it; so he threw
aside his pen in disgust, and obtained a
position as surgeon s mate on board an
eighty-gun ship, where he learned much
of life. He was present at the ill-fated
expedition against Carthagena, where
he gained a rich experience which he
subsequently incorporated into "Rod
erick Random." When he again turned
his efforts into the literary channel, he
was better able to battle with opposi
tion, and as he produced works of real
merit lie became popular.
Smollett had grown from youth to
middle age when he concluded once
more to visit his native land. His fame
had gone before him, and his reception
by the dignitaries of Scotland was cor
dial and flattering. But he had prom
ised himself the greatest pleasure in
meeting with his mother whom he had
not seen since his beard begin to grow.
The battle of life, and the travel into
foreign climes had left their scars and
their tan, and it was thought that his
mother would not know him.
Mrs. Teller, his sister, introduced
him as a gentleman from the West
Indies, who had known Tobias when he
was there, and the better to support
bis assumed character, Smollet put on a
serious look, amounting almost to a
frown; butwhilehis mother'seyes were
riveted on his face the old eyes with
the kindly gaze that he remembered so
well he could not refrain from smiling.
In an instant she was upon his bosom,
with her arms around his neck.
"U, my son ! my son ! I have found
yon at last ! Ah !" she added, as she
held him oft, and gazed upon him, "had
you kept the austere looks and the
gloom upon your face, I might have
missed you; but the old roguish smile
it betrayed you at once '." S. J:'. Led

The Irish peasantry have an inborn
taste for funerals, and in the amount of
honor done to the departed they lose
sight of the actual loss they have suf
fered. "Uch, shure, thin, it was a fine berry
ing; there was a sight of people and a
power of cars," is as great aeulogium
as cau be accorded any man, and will
quite console the survivors. And the
reverse, 'Och, thin, he didn't leave
enough as would berry him daceut;"
in fact, they think far more of how
they are to be buried than of keeping
life itself. The poorest and most im
provident lays by something for his or
her own wake, and I have myself
known cases of paupers in the hospital
wards who were accumulating under
their pillows a little store to save the
disgrace of a parish colli n, that being
the greatest and last misfortune that
could befal them. Douglass Jerrold
was much struck by this phase or the
Irish character, and it is he, I think,
who tells an affecting storv of a young
girl whom he found in a cabin, busy at
her needle. "1 see you take in plain
sewing; this is some bridal grandeur,"
he said, taking up what looked like an
elaborate niglit-dres. 'lis no wed'
ding grandeur," replied the girl proudly
"Shure 'tis my own shroud; let life
bring what it may, plase God I'll have
a daeent wake."
In parts of the north of Ireland there
was at one time, some forty or fifty
years ago, a rather romantic custom,
that when a young unmarried woman
died, her coffin should be carried by
young girls only to the graveyard. As
this was situated perhaps fifteen or
twenty miles from where she lived, it
followed that the bearers should be
changed every second mile, and -on
these occasions there was generally an
escort of running volunteers, who in
this way often did their thirty miles in
the day. This was called "shifting the
coffin," and a good many marriages
were the result of these excursions; but
the Idea was, nevertheless, pretty and
pastoral. Oublin Cniversits ilaijazine.

It is always better to pass a dozen in

than to take offense at a single unin
tentional neglect or reflection. Misun
derstandings are fruitful of more
unkindly feelings in society than ever
result from deliberate ill-nature. Hun
dredsof friendships have been sundered
by that egotistical sensitiveness which
is ever looking for offense. We can all
point to certain persons who are thus
morbidly sensitive to a painful degree.
They are disagreeablecompanions. We
need not spend onr precious time in
pointing to them, however. We have
each something to guard in our own
character. We are each inclined to
take offense too easily. If we could
remove this ever jealous watchfulness,
society would gain a new charm, or
rather it would be relieved of a very
disagreeable feature. Pass neglect,
then, and personal reflections, as grace
fully as possibly, instead of taking the
risk of being offended when no offense
is intended.

Hungarian Mnxrr. A great diver
sity of opinion exists among practical
farmers as to the value of the several
annual grasses commonly known as
millet. This may be accounted for in
part by the character of the soil where
grown. All the varieties of millet are
peculiarly adapted to light, sandy, or
sandy loam soils, such as will produce
full crops of timothy and red-top only
under the most favorable circumstances.
Land that is excellent for grass is not
the best for millet, and the best millet
land is not natural grass land. Millet re
sembles the corn plant in its adaptation
to warm land and hot weather, and for
this reason we should expect to find it
a more popular crop on the dry, sandy
land bordering our sea-coast than upon
the moist, green hill-tops of Vermont,
New Hampshire, and Western Massa
chusetts. And this we find Is the case
many farmers in the interior having
scarcely ever seen a patch of millet
growing. Profitable crops of millet!
presuppose land easily plowed and
capable of being smoothed off and laid
down with little labor.
A3 a feeding crop for milch cows, we
hold it in higher estimation than when
we commenced raising it, probably be
cause it is now grown more thickly and
cut earlier. Formerly it was thought
that a peck of seed was enough for an
acre. Then twelve quarts was recom
mended, next a half-bushel, and so on
till now we find the most successful
growers using from three to four pecks
of seed per acre. This gives a fine
quality of hay, and if the land is made
fertile, a heavy burden may be obtained.
When first introduced into our neigh
borhood, many years ago, millet . as
recommended as specially valuable for
horses, yielding both the hay and grain
on the same plant, and it was tried for
this purpose, but without giving satis
faction. The straw was too hard and
stiff, and the horses did not appear to
relish it like good timothy and oats.
Most farmers now cut it, or intend to,
when it is in blossom, and when cut
thus early they find that it is eaten
readily by all kinds of slock. Many
even contend that it is better than the
best hay. We can not give it quite as
high credit, but esteem it a very valua
ble plant with which to supplement
the grass crop in a dry season. From
two to three tons per acre can be ob
tained in from sixty to seventy days
from sowing, and it may be grown
after an early crop of hay has been re
moved. Making an Orchard. Some eight
years ago Mr. J. H. Bostou, of Bidde
ford. Me., says the Farmer, commenced
to clear a piece of laud consisting of
twelve acres so rocky and broken
that nothing would grow on it but
bard-backs and junipers. After clear
ing and burning off this unprofitable
growth, he put it out to fruit trees,
wherever he could find soil enough.
Mr. Boston defies the State to show a
better growth on trees of seven years
old some of them measuring nine
inches in diameter, and fruiting well
this year. 31 r. Boston says he never
lost a tree. He has some four hundred
fruit trees, consisting of apples, pears,
cherries and plums. Where he could
not set a tree he has graje-vines In and
around the rocks their beautiful foli
age and fruit covering up the great
rocks and unsightly objects. In the
smooch, level patches of land he has
strawberry beds, and where nothing
else will grow he has .raspberries all
of the improved varieties. At the foot
of this romantic garden is a trout brook
which Mr. Boston intends to dam and
stock with specimens of the speckled
fish, affording some of the sportsmen
with hook and line an opportunity to
enjoy the fun of hauling the little fel
lows out. This stream and fish pond
will make quite au addition to the
looks of this romantic little place, be
sides being a source of profit.
Aboct Fowls. Always use china
eggs for nest eggs, and never put eggs
under a hen till she has set one night
on a china egg and is found upon her
nest the second night; then at evening
put the eggs under her, eleven to a
large hen and nine to a small one. Let
the nest boxes ii of ample size, fifteen
to eighteen inches square, and first put
a layer of dry earth at the oottom, men
make the nests of fine hay or straw,
and sprinkle a little Hour of sulphur
among it to drive away lice. Keep
your henhouse well wnitewasneu,
perches and all, and remove tne ma
nure often. Put it into a barrel and
when filled or partly filled take it into
your garden and mix it with aDout
four times its bulk of soil. Make a
heap broad enough to contain the en
tire droppings of the season, and here
compost your manure from time to
time, always leaving the top oi tne
heap flat so as to retain rains, and cover
with litter of any kind, so that none of
the heap will be exposed to the rays of
the sun. these comost heaps should
be shoveled over two or three times
during the season, to mix their con
tents thoroughly; and the next season
apply from a half pint to a pint of this
mixture to hills of garden vegetables,
or to field crops of corn, and you will
find every pound of the coniost equal
in value to a shovelful or Darnyard ma
uure.
Wixter Feeding. Corn is better
adapted for fattening animals than for
making them grow. To young animals
even to pigs, it should be fed in moder
ation. Fat is not what we want in
a young animal, but bones and muscles
instead, and these are best produced by
grass roots and oats, it is often, how
ever economy to feed a little corn meal
with these. Professor Arnold has made
some experiments in feeding corn com
pared with hay, and he estimates the
former at 1 per head equivalent to bay
at $10 per ton. He woui I like to see
our dairymen feeding more cornmeal
and more oats In winter and less hay.
Then cows would not come out in the
spring as lean as Pharaoh's lean kine,
and they would start oft for their snm
mer duties with good heart and udder,
and more than pay back the extra cost,
if there is any, of the winter fodder.
Sowing Salt on Wheat Land. The
Toronto Globe recommends that the
best time to sow salt on land for winter
wheat is immediately before the seed is
sown. Where land is plowed in the
fall for spring crops then sow the salt
late in the season on the plowed land.
It is always sown broadcast when ap
plied alone and it has been applied
good effect at the rate of from three to
twelve bushels per acre. But all trou
ble and labor of that kind may be saved
by scattering it on manure heads.
Celery. The snapping cold nights,
although not so hard upon celery as
upon many vegetables, dues it no good.
To preserve it indefinitely place moist
earth in a box, set the roots of celery
into it and put into a cool cellar, or
bury so as not to confine too closely
until excessive weather comes on. if
put in a box in the cellar it Is well to
have the box of such a depth that the
leaves will not overreach the top, and
cover it with a piece of woolen, which
can be moistened occasionally.
When husking corn from the shocks
is the best time to secure seed for next
year's planting. The ears set apart for
seed should be taken where two have
grown upon a stalk, they should be
weii-niied out at both ends, should be
stripped except the inner husks and
these tied and hung np together in a
rather warm but dry garret.

A Aew Safety Explosive Composition.
Messrs. L. de Soulages and K. Cahuc.
of Toulouse, France, have patented
through the Scientific American Patent
Agency, September 19, . Ic7ti, a new
blasting powder, which is claimed to
produce a dynamical effect superior to
the common mining powders and to
dynamite, while it combines the ad
vantagealof cheapness and non-explo-sibility
in the opeu air, with a reduced
production of smoke and injurious
gases iu its explosion, leaving hardly
any trace or residue of solid deposit of
ashes in the bore hole. It consists of
nitrate of potash or equivalent salts,
sulphur, and soot or lampblack, com
bined with tanners' bark, sawdust, or
similar separating ingredients, ground
aad mixed in suitable proportions. The
compound is then miugled with a so
lution of sulphate of iron, and boiled
until the mass becomes entirely liquid,
with the parts so combined as to form
a uuiform black paste. This, when
dried, produces a powder of a blackish
color, and of a density of about O'tJ.
It may be stored for a considerable
length of time without undergoing the
least alteration or deterioration.
In the atmospheric air the powder
takes tire and burns like any other in
flammable body brought in contact
with an ignited body or a dame of suf
ficient intensity, producing no shock or
explosion whatever. Neither atmos
pheric electricity, nor shocks of any
kind, have any action on the powder,
which explodes only when firmly tam
ped or compressed in the bore hole,
and ignited, like the ordinary mining
powder, by means of a mining fuse.
Effects of Compressed Air on Animals.
The mechanical effects of compressed
air upon the animal economy, as ascer
tained by Bert, are to cause a lower
ing of the diaphragm and liver, and a
consequent increased pulmonary vital
capacity ; this effect, while gradual in
its production, lasts long after the sub
ject is withdrawn from the compressed
air bath. Pravaz finds that the heart's
action is at first increased, and then
lessened, the pulse first becoming more
rapid, and theu slower, but never fall
ing below the rate at normal pressure.
The respirations are diminished during
immersion, but on removal of the in
creased pressure they rise in frequency
and in direct proportion to the degree
of compression. There is an increase
in the amount of urea excreted, but
this increase diminishes the longer the
sojourn in the compressed air. There
is at the same time an increase iu the
amount of carbonic acid expired. The
temperature of the body rises above
the normal at first, and then falls as
the immersion is prolonged. These
varying effects are due, Pravaz thinks,
to the two influences of inward atmos
pheric pressure and hyper-oxygena-twn,
the former tending to diminish
the circulation and the organic chan
ges, and the other to increase them.

Any of the pure mineral colors may be
used for mixing with the silicate. Pow

The mixture is then applied in the

of this fusion is a double salt, a borate
of potassium and chromium, which,

An English inventor proposes to
&ump exhaust steam back into tie
oiler in place of condensing it, and
experiments are now being conducted
with an engine for testing the inven
tion. The inventor contends that "the
pressure exerted by the steam on one
side of the piston represents, by its
elastic power, the same expressions of
power in pressure on the other side ;
so that the elastic charge is always
ready to give back the exact power ex
pended for its expression."
An invention which is expected to
revolutionize the tinware trade of the
country has been perfected, after some
years of labor, by a young Bostonian.
It consists of a serie of die by which
boxes of all sizes, from the salve box
to the preserved fruit and oil cans, are
pressed from a single piece of tin, the
corners being doubly folded, in the
process, and no solder being required.
though the cans are perfectly air tight.
The Australian gum tree, eucaluvtus

mitotic:
Kitchen Economy. The most useful
expenditure any man indulges in is
that which gives him blood, bone and
muscle and brain power; which keeps
him in sound physical health, buoyant,
active, vigilant and energetic; and, by
a parity of reasoning, it follows that the
poorest economy is that which begins
in the kitchen. Yet, putting the two
together, and acknowledging their
truth, it by no means follows that an
extravagant kitchen is conducive to
health, or that a man's physical con
dition is to be measured by the amount
of money he spends on his table. There
are other things that go toward the
making of good blood besides thirteen
courses, with soup atone end and pastry
at the trier; and if the statistics were
on hand, they would show a preponder
ating weight in favor of the poor against
the rich. The bad cooking in this coun
try has been the theme of many a pen,
but it requires no great skill to cook a
joint and a potato, and we will put the
man who has nothing more, against tne
man who has the thirteeu courses, with
a certainty of carrying off any sanitary
prize that may be offered. Our dyspeptics
are found among the rich, not the poor;
among those who live freely, and work
with brain more than with hands; who
stay long at the table, and tempt pre
carious appetites with choice viands
and delicate tid-bits; who heat their
stomachs with wine, and chill them
suddenly with ices; and whose nervous
energies are on the perpetual rack.
Heating the Oven. If the oven Is
too hot when ready to bake cake, lay a
large wire grate on the oven bottom, or
place some nailsrold pieces of iron on
the bottom of the- oren. Put a piece of
paper over the cake, take one or two
covers half off, till the ven is cooled
off; but never open the on door, that
will make the cake fall, close the drafts,
but they should be partially opened al
ways while baking.
When cake seems to be done try it
with a clean straw or splint from a
broom, or, better still, keep a long knit
ting needle for the purpose. Then ore
is sure It is always clean. If this comet
out of the cake dry and clean, the cake
is done; but If there Is any doubt about
it leave it in a few minutes longer.
Jamie's Potted Beep. Cut quite
lean beef in pieces, as for a stew, and
put in a close-covered pail. Put in one
layer at a time, then a little salt and
pepper and a little sprinkling of clow
and cinnamon. Theu put in anot'.er
layer, season as above, and so on till
all the meat is in the pail. Pour over
all a cupful of vinegar and water for
about three pounds of meat. Cover the
pail closely, and set Into another partly
filled with boiling water, and let it
simmer four hours. Eaten cold, or
warmed up for a breakfast dish, this is
very nice. Cloves gives it a dark color,
but improve the flavor. When warmed
up thicken the gravy a little, and place
bits of toast around the dish.
Paper Blankets. Paper has been
recommended as a bed covering on ac
count of its non-conducting propensi
ties, but its density and consequent ob
struction of ventilation has made it ob
jectionable. To remedy this, an Eng
lishman hag taken out a patent tor a
perforated paper blanket. The perfora
tions are about four inches apart, and
the material a tough, light brown paper.
They are recommended s clean, econo
mical, and ready for use in any emer
gency, in hospitals, schools and private
families, where their cleauiiuess and
comfort will bring them into service,
and also in hot climates, where blankets
are liable to be infested with insects.
Stcfted Ego Plants. Cut two egg
plants in two lengthwise; slash the
inner surfaces with the point of a knife,
making a shallow incision ; fry till they
are soft, and drain on a cloth. Prepare
in a saucepan two ounces of butter, two
ounces of salt, fat pork chopped tine,
and two or three chopped shalots; cook
a lew minutes, and add a pint or musli
rooms, a little parsley, and three an
chovies, all chopped fine; mix the
fleshy part of the egg plant with this,
season to the taste and put the stuffing
thus made back into ttie plants, with
bread and cheese crumbs and little
pieces of butter strewed on the top, and
bake twenty minutes.
Hioden Pickle. One peck of green
tomatoes, chopped finely; add one cup
or salt, drain three or four hours, then
add two heads of white cabbage, four
large onions, six green peppers, all
chopped finely ; cover this with vinegar
and let it boil five minutes; drain off
the vinegar. Ihen take fresh vinegar
enough to cover it, put it oil the lire
and scald it with two ounces whole
cassia buds, oue ounce whole cloves,
one large teaspoonful ot mustard and
one pint of molasses. Then pour over
the whole, mix well and put away iu
close stone jars, with the top sprinkled
over with horse-radish root grated finely
Pumpkin Pies. Scrape out the inside
and remove the rinds. Then cut the
hard portion into pieces about an inch
or more square. Cover with cold water
and boil quickly. When done tender
turn into a colander and drain every
particle of water off. Then mash
through the colander. When this Is
done sweeten well with white or light
sugar; add also a generous lump of
butter and the yolks of three eggs. Beat
the whole well together. Next add a
cup of sweet cream ; then the whites of
the three eggs beaten light. Lastly,
nour, with essence or lemon or nutmeg,
French Rolls. Two quarts of sifted
nour, a lump of lard about the size ot
an egg one a little larger of butter;
stir into the flour, the same as iu mak
ing pastry. ben well stirred, add
bloodwarm water, or preferably milk
and water; add a little salt, half a tea
cupful of home-made yeast, or three
tablespoontuis or baker s yeast. Mix
In the evening as for bread, and let rise ;
ten or fifteen minutes will suffice to
bake if the oven is sufficiently heated.
Good bread is made in the same way
with a proportionately small quantity
of lard and butter.
Stains from Linen. To restore linen
that has long been stained, rub the
s-ains on each side with wet brown
soap. Mix some starch to a thick paste
with cold water, and spread it over the
soaped places ; then expose the linen to
the sun and air, and if the stains have
not disappeared In three or four days.
rub off the mixture and repeat the pro
cess with fresh soap and starch. After
wards dry It; wet it with cold water,
and put it into the wash.
For cleaning jkwflry there is noth
ing better than ammonia and water. If
very dull or dirty, rub a little soap on a
soft brush and brush them in this wash,
rinse in cold water, dry first in an old
silk handkerchief, and then rub with
buck or chamois skin. Their freshness
and brilliancy when thus cleaned can
not be surpassed by any compound used
by jewelers.
Potato Yeast. Two good sized pota
toes, grated raw ; pour ou one pint of
boiling water, one half cup of white
sugar, teaspoonful of salt; when cool,
put in one-half cup of good yeast; let it
rise; when light, put in a bottle and
cork tight. Half a cup makes two loaves
of bread; reserve one-half cup every
time lor raising.
Cocoanut Cake : One cup of butter,
three of sugar, five eggs, the whites
beaten to a stiff froth ; lour and a half
cups of flour, one cocoanut grated, a
piece reserved lor tne r resting ; one and
half teaspoon fu la of yeast powder;
flavor to suit the taste.
Ccccmbkr Fritters. Peel and boll,
pick out the large seeds, mash them and
add pepper and salt, flour and beaten
eggmlx well Id a tbiek batter, and fry

A Scotch minuter, after a bard day's
labor, and while at a dinner tea, as be
called it, kept Incessantly praising the
ham, and stating that Mrs. Dunlop at
hame was fond o' ham as he was,
when the mistress kindly offered to send
her the present of a ham. Its unco kin'
o ye, unco kin', but I'll no put ye to
the trouble ; I'll just tak It hame on the
horse afore me. When, on leaving, he
mounted, and the bam was put np in a
sack, some difficulty was experienced in
getting it to lid properly. His Inventive
genius soon cut the Gordian knot. I

hint was immediately acted on, and,
like another John Gilpin, he moved
away with his balance true.
A fashion writer thus deals with
cardinal red: "A stylish priestess in
the temple of fashion looks very much
like a perambulating conflagration.
Lurid ribbons leap about her shapely
limbs, glowing tissues envelope her
head and clasp her white throat in
blood red coils ; startling flames of light
dart in and out, up and down her dark
garments, and even shine between the
soft kid of her little boots." And no
insurance, either.
She stood in the door and watched
the departing form of her own beloved
spouse, and sighed at the thought that
she wouldn't see him before dinner
time, and then she went sadly into her
boudoir and kissed the photograph of
her first husband, whispering in soft
accents, "Oh ! how changed is the
world to me. He promised to give me
a new silk, and he's ordered home only
calico. Why did I marry again?"
Private Theatricals. "You would
make a most beautiful actress in the
drama of life," whispered a poetical
Chicago youth to his inamorata the
other evening "indeed 'tis so you
would be a star." "And you," mur
mured the fair one, as she leaned her
frizzes on his shoulder, "w-wouldn't
you J-like to support me T" So he ar
ranged it right there. How could he
help It? Cards, of course.
What a poetical way the ancient had
of putting things. We read in their
pages that "Lycurgus, king of the
Edoiies in Thrace, refused to worship
Bacchus, in consequence or whlcn the
god visited him with madness." Now

curgus, king, etc., refused to drink any
more whiskey, and in consequence had

"How, mt dear fellow, can I make a
girl love me, who is constantly devoured

the latter, "that is the easiest thing in

love until it overflows, all that runs
over will be yours."
"Coachman," said an outside pas

The sexton of a parish in county
Armagh was about to lose his wife. She

I'll take ye up and bury ye In Tyrone."
A Wag tried to annoy a popular
preacher by asking him whether the

reply; "for I see the male," looking

"Ark you there, my love?" he whis

In the year 1820, when James B.
Rand, long station master at Green
land, on the Eastern Railroad, was a
boy of nine years, he was working in
his father's garden one fine day, on the
farm In Rye, New Hampshire, now
owned by bis brother William, and
took np a clod of earth to throw at his
sister, who was joking with bim. The
dirt crumbled In his hand, and to his
great astonishment there came from it
a bright gold ring, on the inside of
which was the date "1747." It was
plain, with an eagle engraved noon the
outer surface. Who was the loser was
never known. It became his wife's
wedding ring. Since it was found as
above stated it has twice been lost and
found once on the road in Rye, where
it laid through part of a winter, until
the snow melted, when Mr. Rand him
self found it.
To have changed your longitude ex
tensively, and placed yourself in a
moral solitude in order to have small
explosions, to find conversation diffi
cult, and to band a glass of water with
out looking, can hardly be regarded as
satisfactory fulfilment, even to the
toughest minds. &rij Eli4.

" About three years ago our daugh
ter, njw twelve years of age, was se
verely afflicted with Croup. A general
irritation of the lungs followed, pro
ducing a hectic cough, which became
almost constant; swelling of the tem
ples, and other indications of Consump
tion, were also appareut, and her life
was desaired of by her physician. At
this critical moment we were induced
to give Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherrt a trial: and after she had
taken one bottle we found her so much
relieved that we discontinued iu use.
Since that time we have used the Bal
sam in our family in cases of Coughs

rior remedy for all diseases of the
