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 ceiitH for nvusir, if you in nut liavcii, than owe for a piano. Hotter gasto on bare tvnlls than up on picture* unpaid for. Hotter eat thin soup from onrthern dishes, if you owo your butcher nothing, than to dine off of lamb nnd beef and know it does not belong to you. Hotter haven fit, of hysterics than run in debt for furniture, cloth, or anything else you may wish for. 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.

THIS PAPER IS ON FILE WITH SMHsiS basEsem Where Advertising Contracts can be made 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.
