Tha legend about the Seven Sleep era of Ephasua orig lasted aear Vhe close of the sixth century. Its heroes were Ephestaa Caristlaas. who la a third century persecution took refuge u . Mni Md wr, wbJj,4 u by their enemies and left to starve. A miracu lous sleep was seat upon them, which lasted two hundred years. When they awoke aad cot outside the care they supposed the persecution still racing', and stole lata Epheaue by olf ht to se cure enppllee. They were of course astonished at what they heard and saw. This taacUul lernad may bo used aa a parable by which to ceavey certain plain and practical truths. Tha church of to-day has a lar?e supply of powerful sleepers. Its or ruizatiooa. which If they had the op portunity eould duplicate the Ephesiaa miracle, seem innumerable. It la not after life's fitful fevers." but ia the very heifht of the fever, that they "sleep well." and could almost beat the oid Ephesiaa brethren and sleep ers. Our sleepers seem ail the while to hear the sad and restle voice of the Master saving-: Sieep on bow and take your rest" the one command to which they are always obedient. The "high time to ua out of sleep." thev construe as referria; to the final resurrection, for do they not read that "now la our salvation nearer than when we believed?" Tnere are but few pastors who do not find the sleeping business in the.r cong-reg-ations fairly rivaling' that of the legendary Seven eieepers of Ephesus. Evaaeiist ratalae. "As w were rolnsr down town the other evening-." says the editor of our most h'ghty valued exchange, the Peapod Buzle, "we were deeply pained by the conduct of some boys on the postof2.ce corner, tha offense being made double by the fact that our wife, aad our wife's sls'er, aad our young lady cousia were with us. Rerardiess of this fact the boys referred to used lang-u g-e unbecoming- to our ear, or to toe ear of our wife, and our wife's sister, and our young- lady cousin's; and we would say ia ail kindness, -Boys, be g-entlemear Bad tang-usaie Is not the marlr of a s-entleman. nar ticularly when used ia tha presence of us tad our wife, n4 our wife's sis'r. and our young lady consln; and we trust that th.s Is the last time our col umns will be filled with a reproof of this kind. It pains us to be thus called on to rebuke wronff-doing-, but we will dj our duty regardless of vonse queaces. Hence we write this.

Hbata for Farmers and Busy Housewives to Appreciate. ft worthy of reiteration that milk heated to as high a temperature as it can be drank or sipped, above 100 de grees, but not to the boiling; point, is of great value as a refreshing; stimu lant in rases of over-exertion, bodily or mental. To most people who like milk, it does not taste so good hot, but that is a small matter compared with tha benefit to be got from it- Its ac tion is exceedingly prompt a .id grate ful, and the effects much more satis factory and far more lasting than those of any alcoholic drink whatever. It supplies real strength as well as exhil aration, which alcohol never does. It had been observed that many of the rivers of Saxony, which flow through loose or soft materials, have a steep bank on the east, northeast or southeast, while the opposite shore is flat. Herr Kucktaschel, who has been studying the subject, attributes this one-si dedne s to the action of the pre vailing southwest, west or northwest winds, which drive the rains almost at right angles against the bank sloping from the east, and wash away the soil in much greater quantity than from the western bank. ome of the river alleys of Prussia and Bavaria exhibit simiiiar chenomena. Plant ae often killed by frost in alleys and up to a certain height cpoti the tills, while above this limit they entirely escape injury. It has been found by observations that a ther mometer attached to a high tower in a alley Indicates at night the same average temperature as a thermometer on the side of a neighboring hill upon the same level. This indicates that on a tranquil night the cold air resulting from radiation at the surface of the earth settles in the alleys, in conse quence of Its greater deusity,' and the warm and cold air are 'arranged in nearly horizontal strata like liquids of diffaxen. density. Domestic co-operation Is affording a meaus of economy and. in a few re spects, convenience, that are directing some attention to itself. If the cook ing, the laundry work, the sewing and other work can be done outside the house and done more cheaply than at home, then Is some money saved, tbo housewives are relieved of what is perhaps a burden and the home is free from operations that it is desirable shou'd be banished from it. At any rate, this is the plea that is made for co-operation. This principle of doing domestic work is developing lu a rudi imentary way in many directions and they have some promise of being per manent. Seeing an inquiry for Graham bread I eticlose a rule which I have uaed with success for years. In winter It sometimes is very slow in rising, some times feeing all the f renoon in the pans, but in summer I do not think it takes any longer than white bread. I hope she who asks for it may find it satisfactory: A level pint of sifted white flour, a heaping pint of Graham meal, a teatpoonful of salt. Mix the dry ingred ents well, then rub into it a small teas poonful of lard, add a half small cupful of molasses and two- thirds of a coffee cupful of good hop yeast or half a Vienna yeart cake dis solved in two-thiids of a cupful tepid water. Mix stiff enough to knead, with luke-warm water, aud rise over night. Ia the morning mould into two loaves and let it rise till light be fore baking. It should be baked near, ly or quite an hour. C. M. U. Too much stress cannot be placed upon the fact that wheat farming will have to be abandoned. The linger of tleatiny points to the deciduous fruit of the golden oraDge as the product to which the favored grain-grower of this wonderful citrus belt must now address himself to the task of cultivat ing more extensively. The area de voted to wheat and barley must Inevi tably become more circumscribed and the scope dedicat.-d to the production of fruits shall grow steadily greater.; If ranchers will plant a few acres in oranges every sea-on they must in a few years have large and handsome groves, worth just as much as the far- famed orchards of southern California. But to achieve the best results the fruit-growers of the Sacramento al ley will be compelled to water their trees. It would be altogether useless to dot our productive valley with orange groves unless we shall organize an irrigation district. As has already been said, we have water at hand, plenty of it. It is accessible under ground and in the river, and all that is needed is action for i's utilization. Any one wbo may be skeptical as to the magical effect of water in this re gard should consult A. F. Abbott, who bored wells, irrigated his orchard and is cha med at the result. Maryville Democrat. The dairyman who attempts to keep the modern milk cow, when in full milk, upon bay and other coarse fod der, without the aid of a concentrated grain ration, is in about the sa ne plight as an ocean steamphip company would be if it would send its steamers to sea with wood instead of coal for fuel for its furnace ; so much more in bulk would be required for storage room for passengers or freight, besides being liable to get out of fuel before port was reached, in case of unavoid able delay. A cow cannot hold or ab sorb from hay alone enough nourish ment to produce from 12 to 2j quarts of rich milk a day, as mary of our test cows can do nowadays. The skillful feeder aims to feed' sufficient corn fodder to furnish bulk to distend the stomachs as well as Induce the chewing of the cud, and then makes up tie rest of the ration of concen trated grain. The aim should be to feed Just all the grain the cow can di gest and assimilate, and as some will make good use of considerable more than the-s, the feeder should study the peculiarities of each animal and g-uage the quantity to suit the capacity ef each. When a cow in full milk anil good health is not making use of all her food the excrement will smell very offensive and a slight decrease in one r all of the ingredients of its grain wul save a loss In this direct-oa.

Do not think you are going to make the bens lay this winter by following roles or buying nostrums for them. IS'o doubt some of the prepared foods are good, but some of them are too much ef a transient stimulant. The beat way is to remember the conditions under which fowls iay best in spring and summer and give them ihe same conditions as nearly as possible. In thinking the matter over you will find that they want water where they can get it any time; thry want a room where the sun shines through plenty of windows ; they want green food in the form of grass or vegetables ; they want a chance to play in dry dust or ashes, and this is better than all the rules for cleanliness for keeping them J roe from lice. Let them fill the air and cover the coats with very fine dust, and they will take care of that job themselves while the rules would be neglected. They need exercise, and if there is no other way to provide it, make them scratch among straw or leaves for their grain. liens are early risers and want to be fed early in the morning. - 'Farm JTotea. TVhy should any ore expect good crops of apples from trees raised in grass? lie never expects to raise veg etables in this way. Most of the varieties of vegetables have been made by selections, contin ued through years, they are strains rather than new kinds but for all that are invaluable in progressive agricul ture. The farmer who raises a fast trottes is not the man who makes much money by it. The profit goes to trainers and capitalists.

The word "hybrid" in Its applica tion to new vegetables is a misnmner, we get by crossing new varieties, not hybrids. A hybrid would be a mon strosity and is an impossibility as would be an attempt to cross a cab bage with a potato. The laws of na ture forbid university and permit crosses only between these vegetables which are closely ailied and within the same species. But Sbe Had It.

When she was searched the ring and two others not yet misted were fouud in her bosom. - How Women Should Walk. There is no doubt that this pastime properly indulged in is a saving prace to womenkind. It is the simplest form of outdoor exercise, and yet the major ity of American women don't know how to take it. Tbey can't walk. They can't stand the fatigue, and if the truth must be told tbey don't know how to go about doing it- Eight out of a dozen will put on an elaborate frock with skirts that flap inconveniently at every step, a tight bodice and tightly fitting high heeled shoes. This is well enough for a short stroll, but if you're going to walk and enjoy it you require a differ ent equipment. Wear a light-weight frock that has no pull back arrange meuts, and aee that there is no mure than one skirt worn underneath. Bal briggan tights are quite the best underwear for tuch occasions, if one does not wish to don a silk divided blurt, which ia really next easier to a pair of wings to get about in. Let the cord of your stays be loosened, and wear a bodice that is quite easy and loose sleeved. Wear shoes that are entirely comfort able and have a somewhat broad low heeL Let your gloves be loose also, and if you carry a sunshade let it be light in weignt, ana wear a hat which does sot press down upon aud bind your brow until it gives you a headache. Next, mind how you walk. Square your shoulders, expand your chest and look out for your chin. That is the pivot upon which depends the the poise of the machine. Step out easily and firmly, letting the ball of the foot strike the ground first, so that you get the benefit of that beneficent little spring which Dame Nature built into your instep to save the rattle and jar to the whole system which people who will walk on their heels inflict on their anatomy. Don't exhaust yourself by a long tramp one day, and then lio on a sofa or in a hammock for a week to get over the fatigue. Begin with short stretches and increase the distance daily. Early mcrning and late after noon are the best hours for walking. When you return to the house a sponge bath, a rub with alcohol, follow ed bj a liberal application of violet powder, a cool gown, a glass of milk and a nap are a treatment that will make you feel healthy; happy and wise all through the Summer 'days, and send you back to town an ani mated picture of vigorous womanhood in the Autumn.

I l-e-T It mnst be ber cbUd, for she had her uu. uer's voice." We speak of eyes as the "seat of the soul," of the lips as the "door of the heart, We Bay that "beauty s ensign is crimson in" thy lips and in thy cheeks;" we praise the graceful figure. For of the soule the bodie form doth take For soule ia foruie.taiid dolu the bodie make. But we do not give so much heed to the human Toice. the '"music of humanity," yet it is an all-important member. How a beautiful voice redeems a coarse, harsh-featured face. "What plea so tainted and corrupt, but, being season ed with a gracions voice, obscures the show of evil!" How a harsh or a dis cordant voice mars the perfections of a lovely face, aa mui h, if not more, than an evil expression or a want of expres sion obscures the bent features and de grades them into a mere well-chiseled mask. Voices are often hereditary, and they often run in families. Daughters will sometimes speak so like their mothers that it is difficult to distinguish between them, or a set of sinters will have bo exactly the same quality, quantity, and tone of voice, that it is much the same as if one spoke for all. Sometimes, though very rarely, a whole family are endowed with a clear, agreeable, musical voice, the very sound of which in ordinary conversation Is sweetly pleasant to the ear. Dven when raised in enger argument or enthusias tic debate it never grows shrill, hard, or discordant. Otuer voices, on the contrary, and, unfortunately, they are also, and far oftener, propagated by whole family likenesses, are just the opposite of pleasing. They are always pitched so high aa to give one an unhappy feeling that a very little mure strain would snap their vocal cord; the quality of their voice is thin and shrill and untune ful, causing an unpleasant tickling sensation in the throat of those who listen to them. They may be justly called the peacocks of the human race, and their voice ia as unmusical and as ear-piercing aa that of those beautiful birds and ogly sinRers. beautiful, hearty, natural laugh is twin-brother to a beautiful voice, yet even rarer. And, as it is impossible to create a beautiful voice, ao it is impos sible to create a natural beautiful laugh. It must come by nature or it will not come at all. There are many artificial imitations, but the truo ring of the beautiful laugh ia different to tlietu all, and incapable of imitation. We have heard it burst forth spontane ously at the age of seventv, fresh aud vigorous, in a roomful of people, and carry them all away by the sheer foro of its own irresistible merriment. A Beautiful Skin. The plainest features become pretty when clothed with a fresh velvety skin. It is in the power of every womau to have a soft, fiue skin, thus adding much to her charms, if shew-ill devote a little t me and care to her toilet. It should be a duty as well as a pleasure to every woman to euchance the powers of at tractiveness. I'irst of all, one must keep the face free from those unsightly black heads or grill s. Bathe the face in hot water; rub on a little oil aud then take an old-fashioned watch-key and pry out all the large ones. After ward rub on cream or any soothiug ointment. In the morning there will be no trace of the redness. To have a clear skin it is essential to keep the di gestive organs in good order and sleep as much us possible. Sleep will do more to preserve the freshness of youth than any other one thing. At night wash the face in warm water never ue hot using soap freely to remove dust of the day. Then take a pint of cold water, to which a tablespoonful of bay rum has been added, and bathe the face for five minutes. Iry the face on a Coarse towel, rubbing gently to get np a pleasant friction. Lastly, spread a little cream lighly on the the face and neck. Use only the finest cream aud purest soap in the market. In the morning remove the grea-e with plenty of warm water and soap followed by a cold bath as at nifrht. Then apply a little powder with a soft linen rag to remove the shine. Powder is an essen tial adjunct to a lady's toilet let men say what they will to the contrary but never nse a cheap powder. The best will be found harmless. Avoid all face lotions, as their use is sure to ruin the skin. By following the above direc tions you will find in a short time that those horrid little specks that give tho skin such a coarse look will disappear and the skin become as soft as a rose petal.
