.. I>R. TAUIAGE. THE BROOKLYN DIVINE’S SUN DAY SERMON. Subject: “ The City Slrw , li w TIXT: /'lHlrfom crirth without; she ut teffth Hey t>6ios in the street*." —l*rov. i., ‘JO. iCs nix' nil rasdY U> list on to the voloei of nmtum—th voices of the mountain, tho vpfootof the won. tlio voices of Die storm, the voklto of the star. As In some of the ratin'*h ah in Europe there te< on organ nt cither c*n<l of the building, and the one instrument responds imnicnlly tr> ths other, so in the irroat cathedral of nature day reaponrls to day, and night to night, and flower to flower, and star to star, in the grout harmonics of the universe. The spring time is an evangelist in hlosHouis pronchiug of God's love; and the winter i a prophet**-white bearded— denmineing woe against our sins. We arc all ready to listen to the voices of nature; but how few of us learn anything from the voices of the noisy and dusty street. You go to your merchandise, and your mech anism. and to your work, and you come back again—and often with an indifTeneut heart you pas* through the stroots Are there no things for us to learn from those pavements over which wo pass? Are there no tufts of truth growing up letwceu those cobblestones, beaten with the foot of toil, and pain, and pleasure, the slow tread of old age, and the quick step of childhood? Aye, there are great harvests to be reaped; and now 1 trust in the sickle hecausothe harvest iu ripo. “Wisdom arietta without; she utfceroth hor voice in the streets.” In the first place the street impresses mo with the fact that this life is a scene of toil and struggle. Hy 10 o'clock cverv day the city is jarring with wheels, and shuttling with foot, and humming With voices, and covered with the breath >f smokestacks, aud a rush with traffickers. Once in a while you • find a man going along with folded arms and with leisurely stop, as though he had noth ing to do; bnl for (ho most part, ns you find men going down these streets, on the way to business, there is unxioty in their faces, as though they had some errand which must bo oxooutexl at the first possible moment. You are jostled by those who have bargains to make and notes to sell. Up this ladder with n hod <>f bricks, out of this bank with a roll of bills, on this dray with a load of goods, digging a cellar, or shingling a roof, or shoeing a horse, or building a wall, or mending a watch, or binding a book. Industry, with lier thousfuid arms, and thousand eyes, and thousand feet, goes on singing her song of work! Work! work I while tho mills drum it, ami the steam whistles life it. All this is not becauso men lovo toil. Someone remarked: “Every man is as la/.v ns ho can afford to be.” But it is liecauso necessity, with stern brow and with uplifted whip, stands over them ready whenever they relax their toil to make their shoulders sting with the lash. Can it be that, passing up and down these streets on your way to work and businoas, you do not learn anything of the world's toil, and anxiety, and struggle? Oh! how many drooping hearts, liow many eyes on the watch, now many miles traveled, how many burdens carried, how many losses suffered, how many battles fought, how many vic tories gained, how many defeats suffered, how many exasperations endured— what losses, what hunger, what wretchedness. what pallor, what disease, what agony, what despair! Sometimes 1 have stopped at the corner of the street as the multitude went hither anTJ yon, and it has soomed to boa great panto mime, and as I looked upon it my heart broke. This great tide oL human Bfe that goes down the street is a rapid, tossed and turned aside, and dashing ahead and driven bock—beautiful in its confusion and confused in its beauty. In the carpeted aisle.-; of the forest, in tho woods from which tho eternal shadow is never lifted, on tho shore of the soa over whose iron coast tosses the tangled foam, sprinkling the cracked cliffs with a baptism of whirlwind and tempest, is the best pi**o to study God; bat in the rush ing, swarming, raving street is the best place tf> study man. Going down to your place of business and coming home again, I chargo you look about —hoc these signs of poverty, of wretchedness, of hunger, of sin, of be reavement—and as you go t hrough the streets, and come back through tho streets, gather up in the ai ms of youi* prayer all the sorrow, ail the losses,all the suffering,all the bereave jnenfe of those whom you pass, and present them in prayer before au all sympathetic God. Then in the great day of eternity there will l>c thousands of persons with whom you iu this world never exchanged one word who will rise up and call you blessed; aud there will be a thousand fingers pointed at you in heaven,, saying: “That is the man, that & tho woman, who helped mo when f was hun gry and sick, and wandering, and lost, and heartbroken. That is tho man, that is the woman,’’ and tho blessing will come down upon you as Christ shall say: “1 was hungry and ye fed Me, I was naked and ye clothed AKI was sick and in prison aud ye visited Mo; inasmuch as ye did to these poor waifs .of the streets, yodid it to Mo." Again, the street impresses me with the fact that all classes and conditions of society must commingle. Wo sometimes culture a wicked exclusiveness. Intellect despies ig norance Refinement will have nothing to do with boorishness. Gloves hate the suu buraed hand, and the high forehead despises tho flat head; and the trim hedgerow will have nothing to do with the wild copse wood, and Athens hates Nazareth. This ought not 4# be ao. Tho astronomer must come down from his starry revelry and help us in otif navigation. Tho surgeon must come away from Ills study of the liumun organism anil set our broken bones. The chemist mast come away from his laboratory, where he has been studying analysis and syhthoxis, and help us to understand the nature of tho soils. I bless God that all classes of people are compelled to meet on the street. The glittering coach wheel clashes against the scavenger’s cart. Fine robes run against tho peddler's pack. Robust health meets wan sickness. Honesty confronts fraud. Every class of people meets every other class. Independ ence and modesty, pride and humility, pur ity and beastliness, frankness and hypocrisy, meeting on tho same block, in the samo street, in tho same city. Oh! that is what Solomon meant when he said: “The rich and the poor meet together; the Lord is the Maker of them nil.” 1 Tike this democratic principle of the Gospel of Jesus Christ which recognizes the fact that wo stand before God on one and the same platform. Do not take on any airs; whatever position you have gained in so ciety, you are nothing but a man, born of tho same parent, regenerated by the samo Spirit, cleansed by the same blood, to lie down in the same dust, to get up in the same resurrection. It is high time that wo all acknowledged not only the Fatherhood of God, but the brother hood of man. Again, tho street impresses mo with the fact that it is a very hard thing for a man to keep his heart right and to got to heaven. In finite temptations spring upon us from these places of public concourse. Amid so much affluence how much temptation to covetous ness and to be discontented with our humble lot. Amid so many opportunities for over reaching, what temptation to oxtorfcion. Amid so much display, what temptation to vanity. Amid so many saloons of strong drink, what allurement to dis sipation. In tlia maelstroms of the street, how many make quick aud eternal ship wreck. If a man-of-war comes back from a battle, and is towed into the navy yard, wo go down to look at the splintered spars and count the bullet holes, and look with patri otic admiration on the flag that floated In victory from the masthead. But that man is more of a curiosity who has gone through thirty years of the sharp* shooting of business life, and ybt sails on, victor over the temptations of the street. Oh! how many have gone down under the pressure, leaving not so much as the patch of canvas to tell where they perished. Tjhcy never had any peace. Their dishonesties kept billing in their ears. If I had an ax, and could split open the beams of that line house, perhaps I would And in the very heart of it a skeleton. In his very best wine there is a smack of the poor man’s sweat. Oh! is it strange that when a man has devoured widows’houses, he is disturbed with indigestion? All the force* of nature are against him. The floods are ready to drown him, and the earthquake to swallow him. ami the tires to consume him, and the lightnings to smite him. But the children of God are on every street, and in the day wuen the crowns of heaven are distributed, some of the brightest will lie given to those men who were faithful to God and faithful to the souls ef others amid the marts of busi * ness, proving themselves tlio heroes of the street. Mighty wore their temptations, mighty was their deliverance, and mighty shall Ik? tlioir triumph. Again, the street impresses mo with the fact that life is full of pretensions and sham. What subterfuge, Avhat double dealing, wlmt twofaced ness! Do ail the people who wish you good morning really hope for you a happy day? Do all the i%ople who shako hands love eat-h other? Are all those anxious about your health who inquire con cerning it? Do all want to see you who ask you to call!' Does all the worm know half as much as it pretends to know? la there not many a wretched stock of goods with a brilliant show window? Passing up and down these streets to your business and your work, are you not impressed with the fact that much of society is hollow, and that there are subterfuges and pretensions? Oh! how many there are who swagger and strut, and how few people are natural and walk. While fops simper, and tooL ohurkie, ami aiwuUUm* gigghv how f#w people are natural and Inugh The court©- sau aud the libertine go down the street in beautiful upparrl, while with in tho heart there are volcanoes of pas nil in commuting their life away I say those thing** not to croate in you Incredulity mid uiiftuuthropy, nor do 1 forget there are thousand* of people * great deiu bettor than thoy seem; but, 1 donut think any man i* prupannl for the conflict of this life until ho knows t his jtarttculur peril. Fluid comes pro tending to |*y hie tax t< King Exion, ami while he stand* in front of the Kina, stabs him through with a dagger until tno haft went in after the blade. Judas Iscariot Id***! Christ. Again, the street impresses me with the fart that K is a great field for Christian Charity There are hunger and suffering, ami want and wrerh#*Jneiw In the country; but evil* chiefly congregate In our great rtties On evury street crime prowls. And drunkenness ctaggnr-.. and shame wink*, and j an | *srlsm thrust© out its baud asking for alius. Here vyant is most squalid and hunger is most lean. A (Tvriftian inau, going along a street in New York, saw a poor lad and ho stopped and said: “My boy, do you know liow to road and write*” Tue boy made no answer. The man aiskt'd t ho question twice and thfcfoe: “Gan you read and writ*?” and then the loy answered with a tear plashing on the imek of his hand. Ho said in de fiance: “No. Kir; I can’t read nor write, neither. God. sir, don’t want me to nod mid write. Didn’t he tako away my father so long ago I never remem ber to have seen him? and haven’t 1 had to go along tho street to get something to fetch homo to cat for the folks? and didn’t I. as soou ns 1 could carry a basket, have to go out and pick np cinders, and never have uo schooling, sir? God don’t want mo to read, sir. 1 can't road nor write neither.” Oh,these poor wanderers! They liavo no chanc** Horn in degra dation, ns they got up from their hand* and knees to walk, they take their first step on ths road to despair. I*ot us go forth in the name of t he Lord Jesus Christ to rescue them. If you are not willing to go forth yourself, then give of your means; and if you are too liLiry to go, and if you aro too stingy to help, then get out of the way, and hide yourself in tho dmi'; mid caves of the earth, lest, whoa Christ's chariot come* along, the horfltt’ hoofs trample you into tho miro. Beware lest the thousands of the destitute of your city, in the last groat day, rise up aud curs* your .stupidity ami your neglect. One cold winter’s day, us n Chris tian man woe going along the Battery in Now York, he saw a little girl seated at the gate, shivering in the cold. He said to hai*: “My child, wlmt do you sit there for, this cold day?” “Oh,” she replied, “I am wait ing l am waiting for somebody to come and take care of me.” “Why,” said the man, “what makes you think anybody will come and take care of you.” “Oh, sho said, “ray mother died last week ami I was crying very much, and she said: ‘Don’t cry, my dear; though I am gone and your father is gone, the Lord will send somebody to take care or you.’ My mother never told a lie; she said someone would come and take care of me, aud I afn waiting for them to come.” O yes, they aro waiting for you. Mon of groat heart*, gather them iiL gather them in. It i not the will of your Heavenly Father that one of these little ones should perish. Lastly, the street impresses me with the fact tlmt. all the people are looking forward. I see expectancy written on almost even- face I meet between bore ami Brooklyn Bridge, or walking tho vvholo length of Broadway. Where you find a thousand people walking straight ou, you only find one man stop ping and looking back. The fact is, God made us all to look ahead be cause we aro immortal. In this tramp of the multitude ou th streets I law the t ramp of it {groat host, marching ami march ing for eternity. Beyond the office, tho store, the shop, the street, there is a world populous and tremendous. Through God’s grace, may you reach that blessed place. A great, tbrong fills those boulevards and the streets are n-rusta with the chariot© of conquerors. The inhabitants go up and down, but they never woep and tney never toil. A river flow* through that city, with rounded aud luxur ious bonks, and trees of life laden with ever lasting fruitage bond thoir branches to dip th© crystal. No plumed hearse rattles over that pavement, for they aro never sick. With immortal health glowing in every vein they know not how to die. Those towei*s of strength, those palaces of beau ty, gleam in the light of a sun that never set*. Oh, heaven, beauti ful heaven! Heaven, where our friends are They take no census in that city, for it is in habited by “a multitude which no man can number.” Rank above rank. Host above host Gallery above gallery, sweeping all around the heavens. Thousands of thou sands. Millions <>f millions. Blessed are they who enter* in through the gate into that city. Oh! start for it to-day. Through tho blood of the greaf;sacrifice of the Son of God, take up your march j.o henvoti. “The Spirit aud the Bride say come, and whosoever will, lot him come aiid take of thp wajar of life freely.” Join this groat throng heaven ward. All the doors of invitation art 2H|en “And I saw twelve gates, and there wire twelve pearls.” THE COLOR OF HORSES. It Seems to Have Nothing to Do with Their Constitutions. There is more in color or likeness in breeding nil animals than most people imagine, says an exchange. In largo herds of animals jn their wild state colors vary little. 'ftoere is often, so travelers liave said, an odd colored stal lion or two in wild herds of horaus, nnij it is not uncommon to find an odd-col ored stallion apparently the master of the troop. It is quite certain that this stallion does not get his own color as the herd remains in its own originality. Tt has linen said that the original color of horses is chestnut, and there is evi dence to show that of alt the Eastern or of what is supposed to le the blood—the color that lasted the longest, is chestnut and that which Ims lasted least is gray. The earliest numbers of the “(• uglish Stud Book” givei more grays than almost any other color, but they have become s areer and scarcer until now among stallions there is scarcely a gray horse in service in Eng land. For a long time prejudice attached to a white horse on account of the fabulous tradition that they could not stand the cold,because white was a non-couductor of beat, a hypothesis at once contro verted by the fact that the polar bear, which exists alone in the region of eter nal cold, and are happy nowhere else, are white. The same prejudice existed lit one time against black horses, on the other extreme as black was a conductor of heat, a black horse would succumb to the enervating beat of summer. In this age of the world if is needless to say that tile color of a U<o><‘ ha nothing to do with his constitoattoij. Frances's Alexander, a coal black stal lion, trotted one of the most exhausting and prolonged races against afield of six others on one of the hottest days in mid summer, and won it. Jav-Eye See is a black, and there is no horse on the America# turf superior to him in courage and endurance. Hopeful is a gray. During his turf career 110 was the fore most horse on the trotting turf. He pulled a wagon, and plac 'd to his credit a record for that way of going which has never been equalled. Charlie Ford is another gray horse that was tiist ill thir ty-eight races and seventy-seven heats below 2.30, These two examples explode the theory that horses of light color a v e usually of a weak constitution. Hermit, the great English thorough- 1 bred sire, is a chestnut, while his sue was a boy of a particularly marked bay family. Out of a score of sons and daughters of Hermit which have made their mark the majority are chestnuts. This same peculiarity marks the product* of Hambletonion Prince. Those of his get that have made their mark are of one color namely, Billy Button, Helene, Happy Traveler, Peralto. Al though among trotters there are a large number of fast horses of various colors, the majority of distinguished horses are bays. The fastest horses among which that color is predominant are legion. The diversity and universality of color in horses is a provision of nature, and the cause of it cannot lx* explained by finite minds. Why there should be more bay horses than brown, more brown tnau gray, more gray than black, is a problem which the human mind cannot solve.

Tho Melting Pol* Swallow It Up, and Tlu.ro In as Much of It An nually an All tlio Mines Now Produce. Tlio average man or woman will be •urprifed, says a writer in tho Huston Herald, to learn that tho trade iu odd bit* of broken and worn-out jewelry, and battered silverware aud Impaired Bold and silver articles, is u distinct in dustry and one of stupendous propor tions. Indeed, it is one of the greatest iu the country, nnd, in fact, in the mug nitude of valuation involved, it surpasses everything known, excepting the direct coining of money by the mints. Every small jeweler, the great dealers in manufactured gold, nnd the pawnbro kers, all buy old gold, but they are merely tho collectors of this valuable material, for tliey in their turn must go to the bona-fide denier in old gold who makes an industry of it, tho merchant who makes it his specialty, like tho dia mond merchant, and who refines it. Tho jeweler gathers a queer collection of gold and silver junk in tho course of a year. In speaking of the Bubjcet one said: “There are many sources from which we get old gold. It accumulates. If you don’t get rid of it as it comes in, you will be astonished to find what a stock of it you have on hand at the end of a year. One cause that brings much of it into our possession is the frequent changes that occur in the style of jewelry, and the changes are always so pro nounced. Now, take the great barbaric rings that our beauties carry in their ears; the peculiar chains that arc affected by men; tho little ball and chain, min iature emblems of the chain gang service, now attached to Indies’ watches and the bunch of wires and clusters of bangles for bracelets, where will they be classed aud how will they look when they once get out of style? People would look ridiculous with them about their persons, so they would have to get rid of them. “Our grandmothers nnd grandfathers held on to their ancient jewelry to the lust, and now theirgrandsons and grand daughters bring the queer odd bits of style in as old gold. We don't want jew elry once it is out of fashion any more than they do, unless it comes to us as old gold, aud the pieces are worth just the same to us whether whole or chopped up or melted into a lump, for whole or broken, they go to the refining pot. Take the long neck chains, with broad ratchet pin ornamented with fringe, which our great-grandaunts wore attached to their watches—what earthly use would they serve now? “Sometimes we come across a string of the old-time gold beads worn by the belles of a century ago. They are con sidered relics, but we don’t place too much confidence in relics. Everything is ‘old gold’ with us. Those beads being very thin, and merely stamped out of very thin sheets, like half of egg shells, and then two halves rue soldered together to make one bead, they are very light, and ns a whole string will not weigh more than eight or ten pennyweights, and would bring ns old gold generally about $5, we sometimes hold back on them in the hope of running across some relic hunter; but as a rule, antique or other wise, if ai) goes as ‘old gold.’ “Quite often customers come in to have in old watch repaired. In the course of Hie conversation that ensues he learns that the ancient works pf his watch arc not worth tinkeriug Up, and wp talk trade. Eventually wo give him anew watch for liis old one and certain amount to boot. Yv r e take the old works from his time-piece, place them la a second-hand silver case and sell the com bination at a fair bargain. The old guide# fpame wo put in our scrap box, and once a month, probably once a week, sell the tot to the gold Merchant, who pays a much bettor figure toon we dp. We buy old gold at a guess, leaving a big margin of chance in our favor, of course. “Worn out finger ring*, broken jew elry, odd bits and odd pieces, where por tions of a set have been lost, marred and disfigured pieces of solid silver and gold ware, come in daily and are exchanged for good jewelry. Often old jewelry comes to be repaired, but the result is generally a surrender of the broken piece and a purchase of something new. Medals, prize trophies and awards of nV.rU, when cast in the pure metal, are finally £#tpmed in our old gold box. Everything jha,t nature finds its way to the old gold (tetoute’ hands. “Probably it would vou to learn that more than one-half of £lie pg tire gold product, of the United States for ISBB, according to the late report of Sec rcjUify (ft the Treasury Fairchild, was de rived tf'om the refining of the old gold of the country, 'fbf> import says: ‘The produce of gold from thfi rnjn.es the United States during Um catoviaF bear ,of of 1888 was $1,604,841 fine nunesa, valued at $33,175,000, while the product of thirteen private refineries in the coun try manufacturing fine gold bars, includ ing the unrefined gold deposited at the United States Mint and assay offices, amounted to $1,666,508 tine ounces, valued at Now let me in form you that the reference jo ,'unrefined gold’ at the mints and assay offices means the old gold that is scut there by dealers who do not refine themselves," Where do the thieves of the country unload their gold and silver plunder? “Ahem! Well, there are some dealers, I suppose, who are unprincipled enough to deal with such men. Of course, the latter hammer their golden ‘swag’ into wjch a mass that the man isn’t born who ever *o>yld recognize or identify it; or they may niel,t it up into a solid lump. Dealers never a,4 \Yhere it comes from, unless they have reason to suspect some thing wrong. But the profeirVyWil .thieves know a better, surer and safer eustetS&r to deal with than any pawnbroker, jew.etoj or merchant dealer in old gold—that is, the Government of the United States. “The big thieves, who know anything, tend all their gold and silver stock to the United SJales mint by express, and the Government >ctorpp full value for it. No ! questions are cvet akwi ■ Nobody is seen in the transaction between Uni J-hjef jUjd j the Government, and once the property j fall* into the hands of the Government, no man can claim jt, nor can it be got at under any law." Remnants of a Glacier in Idaho. The Orvjonian published particulars of the discovery of remnants of a glacier in Latah County, Idaho, 2000 feet above sea level. It is in Pine Creek Canou, between Big Bear and Texas ridges, on the homestead of George Walker. At tention was attracted by a cold current of air, rushing from the earth’s surface at from beneath a moss bed several inches in thickness. The adjacent surface was covered with verdure. The moss was pushed aside and a few boulders removed, disclosing an ice veil* several inches in Ihieknecs. Alternate layers of gravel and ice were found to a depth of several fe&c, cold currents of air still rising therefrom. Walker thinks the ice is practically un limited and he proposes further develop ment, with a view of marketing the pro duct. AVOKIIH OP WISDOM. Iliches nru never out of stylo; poverty Is never in. Tho moru wo study, we the more dis cover our ignorance. Hu who has uo silver in his pursu should have silver on his tongue. One man’s charity for another's faults ■ is sometimes a cloak for his own. All men have peculiarities, but they arc worse in some men tlinn in other*. Every duty which is bidden to wait, returns with roven fresh duties at it* back. When u man wants to find fault he will do so if he bus to be up all night looking for it. As man gets older he knows more, but he does not get any more attractive in learning it. Most people would succeed in small things if they were not troubled with great ambitions. In finding one man who can bo depended upon, you will beeomo acquainted witli a thousand that cannot be. The man who boasts that ho is ready to shed his last drop of blood is opt to bo particular about the first drop. When u bigger man than you are kicks you the most dignified thing to do is to treat him with silent contempt. Some men pay their debts only with the intention of deceiving the creditors into trusting them for larger ones. Seest thou a man rosy in his cheek, joyful in spirit and amiable in all his wavs? He hath taken a good cook to wife. He it true or fulsc, whnt is said about men often has as much influence upon their lives, and especially upon their des tinies, as what they do. Candor is the seal of a noble mind, tlio ornament and pride of man, the sweetest charm of woman, the scorn of rascals and the rarest virtue of sociability. Discretion of speech is more than eloquence; and to speak agreeably to him with whom we deal, is more than to speak in good words, or in good order. Tanned Alive. C. H. Black, a well-diessed young man, was trying to secure subscriptions to a watch club iu the El Dorado street tannery. lie approached one of tlis workmen who was scraping the hair from hides. Tlio workman scraped away vigorously, and hair and lime were scat tered on every side. Black dodged about, so that his immaculate attire should not be soiled. Tlio workman seized a hose nnd turned a stream of wa ter on tho hide to wash away the loose hair. The water splashed in the direc tion of Black, who nimbly jumped back to avoid it. He had failed to obey that old proverb: “Look before yon leap,” and he went souse into a vat of tanning liquor. His heels flew up from under him and lie sat down up to his neck in the dark brown liquor, which splashed all over his head and face. As soon as the workmen could stop laughing sufficiently to act they pulled him out of his unpleasant bath, nnd he stood dripping on the walk, looking like some beer god just after a bath iu the liquor loved and protected by Gam briuus. Tlio hose which had originally caused all the trouble was now brought into play to repair damages. Black was made the target for a stream until as much as possible of the tanning liquor had been washed from his garments, as well as from his face and hands. He was taken to his hotel and put to bed, while his only suit of clothes was being washed, dried and pressed. Before all ,this could be accomplished, however, Jus skin had been subjected to the action of the strong tanning, and de spite the use qf every known means to neutralize it, his skin will for some time be several Bbados darker than it was be fore his involuntary bath. He will have the comfort, though, of knowing that it will match well with a pair pf y.ellow shoes. —Stockton (Cal.) Independent, A Remarkable Dog. Who-o-o, wh,o-y.-9, who-who lin a way which sounded very much like j,h, e regu lation whistle of the Consolidated road locomotive and down jto a littjo station on the Shore Line division hurried a# old gentleman. Anxiety and perspiration was on every part of his face, says a Bridgeport (Conn.) letter to the New York Sun, for he fully expected to find the train already puffing and blowing at the station. Well, he said, as he looked in either direction and could see nothing of the train. “I believe it is that dog again.” “You see,” said the ancient fellow, later, “this town has one of the most wonderful dogs in the world.

You must individu ally suit your own tastes and purposes, or you will never be satisfied. After hav ing decided, the next thing to consider is of whom you will purchase. It is not best to start on a cheap plan; as a gen eral rule it is with poultry ns with other things, tho cheapest is the dearest in the end. Do not canvass the country to find the man who sells eggs or birds at low prices, but rather find one who sells the best stock at reasonable prices. —Timet Democrat. HALTING STOCK. ' Too many farmers salt their stock on the “impulse, or spasmodic plan.’ I hat is, they give them an extra allowance one day, aud in perhaps a week or fortnight, according to the urgency of furm opera tions or tho importance they attach to this matter, deal out another supply. This is certainly a wrong practice, as stock should be salted at least twice a week and regularly. lam positive that if tho housewife knew what an important factor this salting of cows is in butter making, someone would attend to it in a more systematic manner. This can bo done by providing “salt boxes” attached to a fence, building or post, provided either with a hinge cover or a swinging door in front, in which is n supply of salt. In cither case leave the door open for several days, and when closed you will be surprised to see how quickly cattle, horses and sheep learn to open it. You will also learn that by the old plan you have failed to give them an adequate supply. If pos sible, have the cattle box separate from that for the horses, as the former are rather dainty on this point. —New York Examiner. EVAPORATING FRUIT. An authority advises that with small fruits, especially, care should be taken not to allow them to get too ripe, and in handling not to mash or bruise, Mushy fruit will not evaporate in as gpod con dition as that which is more solid. The heat should be given gradually, taking care at all times not tp get tpo hot. It is an easy matter to burn the fruit, pr dry it so that the natural juices are all ex tracted, and the fruit "ill he nearly or quite all seed and almost tasteless. After securing the right fempcratHro to dry rapidly, keep it sq as nearly ua possible. The damper can be used tp advantage. After a start is made usually the lower trays will dry faster, and it >yill he a good plan to change, nnd then the try3 can be doubled up; that which is in two trays can be put into one and the empty one be filled with fresh fruit, nnd in this way a system of emptying and filling can be kept up, and witli a fair-sized evapo rator it will require the steady work of one person at least to keep it going. A good plan after it inis dried is to put it iu muslin sacks without starch and lay in the sun for two or three days. The fruit will keep better than if it is sorted in boxes or barrels. MULCHING TREES. Mulching is generally applied to trees for one of two objects; late in the fall or early in winter as a protection against thawing and freezing during the winter. And in the latter part of spring or early summer as an aid in retaining moisture in the soil. By its aid a better growth and development is secured, but at this time it is possible to allow it to remain too long, and cause as much injury to result ns benefit has been derived. Time must be given for the new growth pf wood to fully mature and harden be fore frpezipg weather sets in. If nt>t ma tufed, the Liability of being injured by freezing is corwKterabjy increased. Al lowing tlie mulch to remain’ around fhe trees fgo long, or continuing thh’ cultiva tion it)9 late, will aid .to keep the plants growing and lessen jJj.e tjme for the wood tp mature. This is especially thp case where tire trees are growing in good, nab (Ofl, and good .cultivation has been given early in the ss aso# in order to induce a thrifty and vigorous growth, If the trees keep on making pew growth, the better plan is to remove the mulch and not stir the soil. In many eases this will check the growth suf ficiently to induce a proper hardening, Young trees are oftap severely injured by freezing the new growth of wood, often so severely that they never fully recover from the effects, and it is certainly advisable to avoid this as much as possible, After the ground freezes hard, the mulch can be applied again in order to prevent injury from thawing and freez ing. But early in the fall aud until the ground freezes hard, and then again after settled weather in the spring until early in thd suttimer, the mulch, should be re rtirtved from around the trees.—AVoon, FHeM hnd Stockman. ■ ' JJg GAIIDBN NOTES.

The importation of dairy breeds of cattle has been much better sustained in the last few years, than that of the beef breeds.

Palmistry, us practiced principally by flu* gypsies and even less perfectly by u low uuimmupled or iui*guid©t protriul rrs as u means of fortune-telling, bus m ,v„ r been recognized by intelligent artists as others than a pnstiine or a harmless delusion, and nt the present (lav the art is used almost entirely In delineation „f character, white the for tune telling feature is left to the igno rant theouriou*, and the superstitions. It must not l>e inferred from tins tlmt the fortune tolling palmists, and espe cially the gypsies read tho hand at hazard. This would be very far from the truth, for nearly every one who iiays any attention to this line of the art works iu accordance with more or lei d,Jinito rules, so that any fairly e\- perieuced palmist even though mis taken -would read sub* 1 initially the same fortune from the tamo pur of handset diflurent times -not from mem ory of the hull Is, but fr ill tlio applica tion of whatever rules ho might lie ill the habit of using.
