THE DINKELMANS Jaky Is Told to Never Pot Off Till *o morrow What lie Cau Do To-Day, and He TrluH It On. Jakey had been out the night before to see liuth Kubenstein, so when he "turned in" for the night it was about time for the sun to get ready for busi ness. Quietly he crawled up to liia room, removed the fine suit he had bor rowed from liis father's stock and put on his "business suit," then he threw himself op. the bed for a few moments' d°ze and to dream of the lovely, Ruth. "Shakey!" it was Dinkleman's voice. The young lover bid Ruth good-by in his dream, rolled over with a grunt and listened. "Shakey! Get up, you shleepy head. Dot's 8 o'clock." He sat up, looked around, got up, rubbed the wash-rag over his eyes and went down stairs to breakfast. Jakey had got away with thieo buck wheat cakes in silence, when his father said to him: "Did you see about dot damaged stock of coats at Akin & Co.'s yesterday?" Young Dinkleman stuffed half of an other cake into his mouth, whioh was quite equal to the occasion, and then letjout the word "No" in a gloomy way from the right-hand corner of his mouth. "Vy not?" "Oh, I let me dot go till to-day." "Yes, and may bo to-day dey are gone, Shakey. Dot is something vat you must always remember. It vas de He brew poet vat say, 'Never put off till to-morrow vat you can do to-day.' This morning I read in the Hebrew Leader dot a young man vas to be married von day last week to a young lady worth two million dollars, but he put off the wedding to the next day. The next day the young lady die of heart disease be fore the marriage take place and dot young man is out two million dollars," and then they all got up from the table, Jakey putting himself in the young man's place and thinking he had better not let too much time go by before he proposed to Kuth Kubenstein. That afternoon Dinkleman called Jakey to him and said: "Mine son, to-moirow is Saturday, so we close up the store as usual. I must go to Jersey City on business and you can look out for customers. Your mother haves her birthday to-morrow, so you can invite ofer some ov your friends. Y T en de man comes mid de cakes you can put dem in de closet by de desk. I be me pack to-morrow morning. Keep a good lookout for business. Good-bye." "To-morrow a birthday party—invite some friends—cakes, wine, cigars," mused Jakey, after his father had re tired. Then came the thought, "Never put off till to-morrow what you can do to-day. Why not close de store to-day instead of to-morrow, eh? Why dot have dot barty dis afternoon, eh? And invite Kuth und Marie, eh ? Oh, Jakey, you can have a fine time by dot 'don't put off till to-morrow' pisness." In a remarkably short time he had carried out his idea. Mrs. Dinkelman had gone to Jersey City with her hus band, and Ikoy was at a boarding-school in the country, so there was no one to inquire the cause of the store being closed, or what the young people who were flocking in the side door were go ing to do. The cakes that Mr. Dinkel man had spoken of had arrived, but in stead of being put away behind the desk were the center of attraction on the table which Kuth and some of the other girls had laid out. Before the sun had set that night everything had been eaten and most of the youthful guests had departed, while Jakey was seated on the sofa as happy as a king with his arm around the somewhat robust waist of Ruth. Suddenly there was a loud banging on the front door. Jakey looked at Kuth; Ruth looked at Jakey. "Shakey, maybe dot's your fodder, yet!" slit) suggested. "No; he said he be home to-morrow," he answered nervously. Then the door shook louder and threatened to knock down the smiling face of Mrs, Dinkelman, which hung in a frame on the wall, and there came to the ears of the loving couple the words: "Shakey, Shakey, let us in!" "Mein Gott, Ruth, dot's de old man! Sneak out do pack way!" She sneaked. Jakev went down to the door. "Vot you mean by closing dot store, eli V" demanded Dinkelman. "You was going to close it to-morrow, ain't id?" "Certainly." "Yell, never put off till to-morrow vot you can do to-day, don't id?" Before Dinkelman could answer his better half yelled from up-stairs: "Ye are ruined! Ye are ruined! Dey have oat all dot cake vat was for de party I" Dinklemnn looked around with fire in his eye for Jakoy and saw him scat tering down the street at a lively rate. —New York Mercury. The Developments ef a Telegram. A drummer on a certain route through Michigan formed intimate acquaintance with a young woman iu a village not far from Coldwater, and it was not long ero the neighbors commenced to talk about "Sadie Dash's beau" and to pre dict a speedy marriage. The drummei represented himself as a single gentle man, possessed agreeable manners and wholly won the love of the girl and the confidence of her parents. He fre quently remained at Sadie's house dur ing Sunday, was very attentive, and according to the generally accepted be lief they were engaged. One day a telegram was brought tc the drummer while he was at the house of his lady love. He was tarrying in the town awaiting orders from "the house." The girl answered the ring ol the messenger aud re-entered the parlor holding aloft the dun-colored missive. "Do you really want it?" she queried, half-playfully. "Perhaps it contains dreadful news." "Guess not, my dear. It's just a line from the boss. Open it and tell me which way he wants me to go," yawned the drummor as he leisurely folded liia newspaper. The girl tore the envelope and drew forth and unfolded the message. Aft she ran her eye over the written worda the expression of her face brought the drummer to his feet. Before he could Bpeak she had uttered a stifled scream and fled from the room, the crunipJed paper falling upon the floor. Our drummer rescued the scrap, and hero is what he read: BLANKVILLE.

As she ran along the path she Saw a weed that grew beside it, And right here, by hen, we'll leave her And also the weed she did see, And we'll look around a little And we'll see what we can see. See the snake as it does crawl up Through the grass, and the fly As it lights onto the suckle For to get some honey from it: And the sage-brush it grows thick here, And -the bum, yes, and the bumlets, They do sleep into a box-car, That is, when they find one. How we pity the poor old man As he lay within his big tent— As he groans like all get out. Now we'll go and find his daughter Where we left her looking At the plant beside the path. Uanata she pulled the weed up, Pulled it up, its roots and all, Vnd she slung it in the water, And although it was very dirty, It did clean the dirt and water. Uanata saw and thundered: "With me I will take this; It will cure him, euro's the devil." Thus she spoke, and she referred to Unawanga in his tent, And she took it along with her. Like o streak of greased lightning, To the tent went Uanata, And she found her father dying, Dying slowly, yard by yard, And she caught him by the collar, And 'twas back she jerked his head, And his mouth naturally flew open; Down went the essence of the weed she (lathered in the forest. And the old man he jumped higher Than he would have under Any other circumstances. "All, my daughter," said the chieftain, "That's the propor stuff, you know!" And he rose and blessed Uanata, Blessed her with a great big blessing. Now we're coming to the point and To the object of this chant. Please read over carefully, And be governed accordingly. Once upon a time to Amacola Came a young man preaching Down with Cleveland and liia party, And he wooed and won Uanata, And Uanata told about what The weed she found had done. And the young man got some of it, And tested it again, And it did the same work As it did on Unawanga In the laud of Amacola. And the young man he did call it Liver pills for the people.

The well tnanagemeut of the farm requires a knowledge of the sciences and informa tion relative to the advancing discov eries that are made. Agricultr 3 has not kept pace with the improvement of other useful arts. Not one person in the mechanical or manufacturing arts of this day follows the course of his ancestors; neither can he in agriculture, chemistry, geology, mineralogy aud meteorology. All have a direct in fluence on the farmer, and he should have some knowledge of them which will enable him to excel in management, besides gaining the satisfaction that knowledge imparts to those who seek it. The farmer has the means of improv ing his taste for study and observation abundantly more, perhaps, than any other workingman. His range of duties carries him over many of the sciences, whether he knows it or not; aud if he learns a few of the leading principles each day he will add to his store till he has a mass of information ready to be applied when needed. How many of the farmers of the present day can tell why plaster (sulphate of lime) is a fer tilizer, or the iufluence ammonia, car bonic acid, oxygen, nitrogen aud other gases exert on plants; of the phosphates, carbonates and other salts with which science has enriched the farmer? Yet a knowledge of these is essential to make a skillful agriculturist, which every farmer should strive to become. As a rule it is servile toil with the farmer. The silver path of life, all worth living for, is a blank, and from youth to age the same monotonous routine is followed. Spring's work, sugaring, haying, harvesting, fall plow ing, etc. it is but a short time between fall and spring that the farmer has the slightest relief from hard work. He has 110 time to read or study. He has no time to form a taste for anything, and "book learning" he considers worse than useless. In some respects he is right. If he has no natural ability to go with book learning it is of 110 more used to the farmer than it is to any one else without brain. Book learning is "waste matter" iu any occupation of life unless there is something else to put with it, and if the farmer has that "something" ho will find "book learn ing" a paying investment. To the average farmer a stretch of green meadow is so much "land," a field of waving grain is so many bushels of wheat; the sunrise, that many would go miles to view, only tells him it is day and time to begin work, and the sunset tells him that his work is done. He has no time to note the beauties of nature in the midst of which he lives, | the woods and fields and flowers pro sent no picture to his eye, and A primrose by n rivor's brira, A yellow primrose is to him And it is nothing more. Education gives the farmer apprecia tion of that which makes the better part of his surroundings. Education helps the farmer to realize some of the profits from his hard work which he thinks go to some one else. A farmer does not need to plod more than any other business man, and lie has just as good an opportunity to make something of himself and his family. Farm work is called drudgery. There is drudgery in every kind of work and in every profession. When farmers realize that they are not cattle, and in stead of giving their stock a good house and living in a barn, change places with their stock, they would find there would be less drudgery. The farmers compose the great body of our population, and the influence they exert ought to be all-powerful. They control the destiny of the republic and give stamp to the national character, and, of all classes, should be educated, enlightened and advanced, and the farmer should bo able to Take liis place beside the learned and great. He should have a freedom of thought and a knowledge of liis duties qualifying him to take his staud in the world and keep it, making him honored and ac complished; and if happiness is to be , found in this world it will be among his rural cares and his rural duties. — Albany Journal. !

MNSIOWKg.'S: B 3 vrsin last war. 15Mliudiouliugclaims, atti elnn* -iMiKWuuK.- Many persons are delighted to make the acquaintance of nature at second hand, as she is represented in the pages of books, but her real and common aspects inspire them with dismay. The famous naturalist, the late Rev. J. G. Wood, about thirty years ago published a little book called "Common Objects of the Seashore." The work met with a marked success, for hundreds of people were astonished and delighted to learn something about the structure and habits of various creatures which they were daily finding in the rock pools, or lying dead upon the shore. Soon after the publication of the book, Mr. Wood was one day hard at work among the rock-pools at Margate. He had a mallet and chisel in his hand, and was wearing his oldest coat; his trousers were tucked up to his knees. Just as he was moving from one pool to another, a small party of fashionably dressed young ladies approached. Tlioy were "studying nature" as they sup posed, for they were wandering daintily along the shore, trying to identify some of the objects which they saw, by the help of a copy of Mr. Wood's "Common Objects." As they passed Mr. Wood, they looked up, saw the enthusiastic natur alist in his working attire, shrugged their shoulders, and one of them mur mured : "How very disgusting!" Then they returned to their book and to their dainty study of nature. Another curious incident, though of a differeut nature, followed the spread of this fascinating book. A young man wrote Mr. Wood from Chicago, saying that he had read the little work with much pleasure, but living as he did, at a distance from the sea, many of the animals described were absolutely un known to him. Ho had the greatest desire to examine a jelly-fish. Might ho ask the Rev. J. G. Wood to forward him one by return mail?— Youth 1 8 Comvanion. Sure Itosult or Exposure.

Mounted on a powerful horse, faster and faster went the rider, but the flood was swiftly gaining, until it caught the unlucky horseman and swept on, grinding, crushing, annihila ting both weak and strong.
