It h Better.
It is better to wear a oalico dress
without trimming, if it is paid for
than to owe the shop keeper for the
most elegant silk ( cut and trimmed
in the most bewitching manner.
Better to live in a log cabin, all
your own, than in a brown stone
mansion, belonging to somebody
else.
Better walk forever than run in
debt for a horse and carriage;
Better to use the old cnnc-scatod
chairs, and failed two-ply carpet than
to tremble at the bills sent home
from the upholsterer’s for the most
elegant set uver tnado.
Better meet your buisidess ac
quaintances w ith a free “I don’t-owc
yon-aceut” smile than to dodge
around the coiner from n dun.
Hotter |>ay tlio organ-grinder two

Hotter haven fit, of hysterics than

Weaning I’kih. —Wo rend of many
different ways of weaning pigs, and
jet we confess that withtwenty years’
experience in raising swine, this mat
ter never onco bothered us. Wo al
ways fed lows and pigs together, us
ing various kinds of lions while the
pigs were small, and increasing the
grain as the pigs grow. At ten days
old the little follows, if strong and
jJteJkd corn;
eat, and if enough of good food is
Hived them they, as they increase in
sir.o, proportionally cease sucking tlio
slant, slid at the age of eight or ton
weeks havo virtually weaned thern
felvcs. If from peculiar causes it is
desirable to wean thorn very young,
other plans must be adopted.
Tloo Ciioi.kkv —The following is
said to boa snro curs for cholera-
Hating corresponded with several
p out that havo used this remedy
ti hog cholera with sucoess, 1 would
veev amend that the following receipt
i j.; i rvod for future use: Sulphur,
two |'fluids; copperas, two pounds;
t i idihr, two pounds; saltpetre, half
pound; black antimony, half pound;
arsenic, two ounces. This quantity is
sufficient for one hundred hogs. It
should be mixed with slop enough to
make several doses, one-fifth given
every morning. If used as a prevent
ive, a less quantity of material might
be used. — [ Spirit of Jxahsat.
Saving Seed Corn. —In gathering
corn take each car* only as the finest
from the most prolific stalks. Never
take from a stalk having but one, if
large and thrifty stalks can lie fonnd
witb two or more good-siied ears.
Gem-rally but one of them is fit for
reed, and that usually the second from
the ground, but if tho lowest is the
best, take that. Always take the
cars that nro filled out to tho end.
■nd that run beyond the husk, if such
can be fonnd. When you como to
plant, before shelling break every ear
mud see if the pith of tho cob is dried
wp, for if it is not the corn is not
ripe.

I.uskin observes that, as ft rule,
women hare no eye for eolor. This
explains why a woman is obliged to
spend three-quarters of a day in get
ting the exact shade of ribbon to trim
a .dress, while, when it comes to
unending her husband’s pantaloons,
she seems to think that a yellow
patch is just the thing to match black
broadcloth.

S( RIBNER’S MONTHLY for 1876.
The publishers invite attention to the fol
lowing list of some of tiic attractive articles
seemed for Scribner’s Monthly for the com
ing year. In the field of fiction, besides nu
merous novelettes and shorter stories, there
will be two remarkable serial stories by Am
criran authors. The first of these, now com
plete in our hands, Gabriel Conroy, by Bret
lfarte, begins in the November number, and
will run twelve months. This is Mr Harte’s
first extended work. The scenes and charac
ters, which the author has chosen from his
favorite field, California, are painted with
characteristic vividness and power, and the
work is doubtless the most graphic record oi
early California life that has yet appeared.
We shall also begin, in the January num
her, Philip Nolan’s Friends, or Bliow Your
Passports, by Edward Everett Hale. The
soeue of this story is laid in the Southwestern
territory, now forming the States of Louisi
ana and Texas, at the time of Aaron Burr's
treason. The characters lived in a section
which was now American, now French, and
now Spanish, and this record of their adven
turous lives makes a story of intense and un
iiaggiug interest throughout.
A second Fanner's Vacation, by Col Geo
E Waring, Jr. Col Waring is now in Eu
rope, visiting, in a row-boat ride of -50 miles,
one of the most fertile and interesting of the
vine-growing valleys of Europe. This sec
ond series of papers promises to lie even more
interesting than that with which our readers
: re already familiar.
Centennial Letters, edited y John Vance
Cheney. A rare collection of Revolutionary
letters, mainly from stores in the hands of
the descendants i. Col seph Ward. They
are full of interest a will be read with a
rare relish in connection with the Centennial
celebration of the year.
Brilliantly illustrated articles on American
colleges, written respectively by their friends,
wilt appear during t lie year. The revived
interest in college life makes these papers es
pecially timely, and will secure for them un
usual attention
Elegantly illustrated articles on Old New
York, by John F Mines, will appear at once,
and will attract the attention of all, in city
or country, who mark with interest the de
velopment of the great metropolis, and affec
tionately remember the quaint peculiarities
o its olden time.
Every number is profusely illustrated, thus
enabling us to give to our descriptive and
narrativ, artteh -an interest and permanent
vilue never attained in a non-illnetrated pc
nodical. Under its acenstomed management
the magazine will in tLe future be devoted,
us it hes team in the past, to sound literature
aud Christian progress,
