Young WomoS Who SttioU
“Do women learn to swim litre? Well,
yea, I should say they do," said a swim
ming master, in reply to the query of a
- reporter. “We generally have from five
hundred to six hundred women and girl
pupils every season, and the desire to learn
the art seems to be extending among the
sex year by year.’ -
“Is it ts easy to teach a woman or a girl
to swim as it is a man or a bo;?’’
“Hot uuite; but, then, there are excep
tions to the rule. A woman is more con
fiding than a man, generally, and puts her
trust m her teacher more fully than a man,
but when she first touches the water and
goes through the motions of swimming she
is apt to be very nervous. She is slow of
comprehension for a time. A man plunges
in recklessly, digests his instructions with
out parleying and has none of that nervous
fear that retards the progress of nearly all
womet>."
“Are there any good swimmers among
your female pupils?”
“Oh, yes, several. We have one young
lady ot nineteen who can do two miles of
fast swimming. Several of our girls would
be able, under a pressure, to swim across
the Delaware. Teaching gives them con
fidence in themselves and fits them for an
emergency that everybody is likely to meet
once at least in a lifetime.”
“Our process of teaching is a very simple
and easy one. When the pupil presents
herself and has donDCd her bathing suit,
which consists of a sack, skirt and broad
trowsers, she is taken to the preparatory
room and is taught the proper motions of
her arms and legs on a carpet. These
mastered, she is taken to the bathing pool,
where a strap, so padded as not to hurt
her, is passed around her body, and she is
placed in the water wuh her face down
and kept afloat by a rope passed through a
pulley. Here she goes through the motions
of swimming, which, like her music lesson
at home, are indicated by the voice of the
female teacher, who counts one, two, three
in a monotone that gives the time to the
motions of the limbs. The next stage 19
swimming with a float or life-preserver
around the body. In this the actions of
the limbs are perfectly free, and the pupil,
accompanied by the teacher, often succeeds
in making a round of the bath m the sec
ond or third lesson. All her motions are
closely watched and her attention is sharp
ly called to any false stroke or laggard
movement. The motions once perfectly
learned, the pupil soon gathers confidence
in her ability to swim and it is only in a
few cases that we are not able to dispense
with the float at the fifth lesson and send
the young lady out to swim without any
other aids than those given her by nature.
Girls are taught the same stroke as boys,
but I think there is an essential difference
between them in the matter ot using the
propelling power of the lower limbs. The
boy ts more vigorous and more propulsive
in his legs than in his arms, while with the
girls the reverse is the case. Many of our
lady swimmers dispense with the skirt,
which somewhat retards their motions, and
wear simply the sack and the trousers. I
think that is the most reasonable swim
ming costume, for the skirt is apt to hold
the water and lessen the speed of the
swimmer by giving her a heavier load to
carry."
“Do old ladies ever take a fancy to
swimming!”
“Sometimes. One day last Bummer we
had a party here that included three gene
rations of one family. There were the
grandmother, a hearty old lady of 60; the
motner, a plump matron of 40. and four
daughters, ranging from 12 to 18 years of
age. All could swim except the old
lady, and 1 could see as she stood in the
shallow water that she envied her descend
ants the enjoyment of their accomplish
ment. Many medical men prescribe swim-
ming baths for ladies, and we have regular
visitors who come because the exercise is
beneficial to their health.”
“Is the art ever likely to be useful to
ladies?”
“To show you that the art of swimming
is often useful, even to women, I can recall
two or three incidents in the career of cer
tain pupils of ours that will prove verv
interesting. One of our pupils was a
daughter of .Ex-Secretary of the Navy
Bone. She was an expert swimmer and
perfectly fearless. One day in the summer
of 1877 when she was bathing on the beach
at Cape May two children that belilhged to
a party near her were seized by a receding
wave and carried out beyond Their depth.
Neither could swim, and the ladies who
were with them were equally helpless.
Taking in the situation at a glance, Miss
Bone swam out into the swelling surt and
in a moment had rescued the drowning
children.
“Another young lady, also a pupil of
ours, a Miss Laury, whose father i9 a coal
dealer at Lombard street wharf, saved a
minister and another gentleman at a water
ing place on Long Island after a perilous
swim. The men could not swim, and hav
ing been seized by the undertow were
drawn out into deep water, where they
were helpless. Miss Laury swam to them,
and by her noble aid they got safely
ashore. What would have been her feel
ings at that moment it she had not known
how to swim? Still another pupil of ours
has distinguished herself by saving life.
This was Miss Fanny Retire!. Une dav
when she was riding near Hammellsburg,
a little village on the Delaware, she saw
some children playing in a boat on a large
mill dam. Suddenly, to her horror, the
boat upset and the three little children
were struggling m the water. Without the
loS9 of a secoud she sprang from her car
riage, and only stopping to throw off her
bonnet aud shawl plunged into the pond.
She was enabled fortunately to save three
lives, whereas, had she not been a swim
mer, she would have had the horrible
memory a'l her life of the death struggles
of the little innocents.
“I only cite these instances to show that
an opportunity tor doing good often occurs
to a woman who can swim. A distin
guished author says of the art: ‘There is
no exercise more graceful, more easy, more
pleasanr, more health giving to the human
frame than swimming. It expands the
chesls, it rounds the arms, develops tne
muscles of the trunk, gives vigor to the
loin and strengthens and fills out the lower
limbs. It comers presence of minil and
confidence in one’s seif and prepares
women as well as men to sustain them
selves and to help others in a form of
danger to which the contingencies of travel
must often expose us.’ ”
AGRICULTURE,
DOMESTIC,
Millet and Hcngabian Grass .^Mil
let is entirely a summer crop, and the
seed should not go in the ground until
warm weather has been assured. Iti s
specially adapted to light sandy soils,
upon which large crops can be grown,
but .thrives well, also, on soils that are
heavier. The richer the soil the better,
but it is very important to first get the
seed bed in a fine pulverized condition.
Flow deep and barrow several times be
fore seeding, using a brush for covering
in. If the location is in a good, rich
and suitable portion of the field, the
seed should be sown thickly, for the
finer the stalks the tenderer and more
palatable the hay, but where it is sown
for the purpose of obtaining seed for the
succeeding season it should be done in
drills, using less seed, though it may be
broadcasted if necessary.
The appearance of millet while grow
ing is that of thickly-sown dwarf corn,
the leaves being broad, covering the
ground completely. It grows very rap
idly, especially during warm weather,if
there has been a plentiful supply of
moisture,and it also stands the drought
admirably. The tall German giant mil
let is the variety usually preferred.
Hungarian grass is very similar to
millet, both belonging to the same fam
ily of plants, bnt while millet can only
be cropped once Hungarian grass fur
nishes successive cuttings until fall,
which is an advantage when the soiling
Bystem is practiced with stock, bnt ii
does not grow as tall as millet or give
such heavy yields at the times of cut
ting. As a hay crop for winter use mil
let should be preferred.
Millet and Hungarian grass are highly
relished by all kinds of stock,especially
if ent and cured before seeding. The
heads may shoot to seed, but the cut
ting must not be delayed long enough
to allow the seed to mature. Cored tne
same as ordinary hay and stored in the
barn, the leaves do not crumble to pie
ces easily, like clover, and when run
through a cutter and seasoned with
meal, bran and a little salt, the mass
l akes almost a complete food. These
crops are indispensable in places tbat
are not adapted to clover and other
glasses, as they are not only oertain
but grow and matnre in a yery short
time.
As renovating crops-they are excel
lent, for a large crop of millet or Hun
garian grass turned under famishes a
mass of green manure that never fails to
restore the soil to its original feitility
where it has not been cropped for gram
too largely. Whenever the crop is in
tended for green manure it should be
seeded down thickly and cut before the
heads form, first giving the standing
crop a good dusting of lime on a damp
day, ioliowing with a plow and chain.
As both crops grow on very inferior
sandy soil to a certain extent they afford
a means of enriching the soil until it is
fitted for other crops, bnt it is well to
bear in mind tbat all green manure is
more effectual when used in company
with lime. If necessary, two crops can
be grown and plowed under the same
season,
Rigid Cleanliness.
“Do you claim any superiority for the
canning over green vegetables?” was
asked of a manufacturer of canned
goods.
“Yes,” in this way: We are now
canning asparagus at the rate of 6.000
cans a day, and patting it up within
three hours after pulling it ont of tiie
ground. It is gathered in the early
morning befoie sunrise, while the dew
is still upon it. The same remark ap
plies to tomatoes, of which we are pat
ting np 42,000 cans daily at our factoiy
at Morristewu. N. J., where a string of
wagons a mile long is waiting every
morning to receive the cans. The same
holds good with peas, wnich are also
gathered before the sun’s heat can get
at them. If you buy similar vegetables
green at a retail stole they are usually
from one to three days old. They lose
their freshness, whereas by our process
they will remain fresh and sweet for
three years.”
“But what about the chemical action
of the solder?”
‘ All our goods are now soldered on
the outside by a new patent process by
which it is impossible for the solder to
touch the contents. Here, for example,
is one of our new cans of the kind I refer
to. You can see for yourself that it is
as I say.”
“Wuat is the secret of successful can
ning?”

Hoeing a Substitute fois Rain.—
Hoeing aud the frequeut stirring of the
surface of the soil are good substitutes
for rain. Those parts of the garden
that are most frequently cultivated show
the best results. It is probable tbat
com, watermelons, tomatoes, Lima
beans and eabboge, and possibly other
plants, if well started in good soil, may
go through a two months’ drought with
out very serious damage. A deep, well-
manured soil suffers much less than a
shallow soil. Subsoiling and manure
are, to a certain extent, substitutes for
rain. Moisture comes from below. Un
derdrawing is also a safeguard against
drought. The course of the drains In
the garden cun easily. be marked in a
dry season by the ranker growth of
vegetation above them, -Irrigation in
many parts of the North will pay. The
soil, if well prepared, could use to good
advantage twice the quantity of water it
receives from rains during the dry
months of summer.
OiskbAL Porridge and CAkSs.— The
two principal ways of cooking oatmeal
are porridge and cake. The following
is a good receipt for porridge. To three
pints of boiling water add a level tea-
spoonfHl of salt and a pint of ooarse
meal, stirring while it is being slowly
poured in; continne stirring until the
meal is diffused through the water—
about eight or ten minutes. Cover
closely then and place it where it will
simmer for ah boor; avoid stirring dar
ing the whole of that time. Serve hot,
with as little messing as possible (it
best poured into plates) accompanied
with milk, maple syrup or sugar and
cream. To make oatmeal cake, place
in a bowl a quart of meal, add to it i
much cold water as will form it into
soft, light dongb, cover it with a cloth
fifteen minutes to allow it to swell, then
dost the paste-board with meal, torn
ont the dongh and give it a vigorous
kneading. Cover it with the cloth
few minutes, and proceed at once to roll
it out to the eighth of an inch in thick
ness; ent it in five pieces and partly
cook them on a griddle, then finish
them by toasting them in front of the
fire.
Mutton Hams.—As a change from
too frequent pork, eggs- and poultry
diet, mutton hams would be very desira
ble. A sheep slaughtered occasionally
would furnish suciffient fresh meat for
a week’s consumption, without the legs
and shoulders. These may be cured as
hams and furnish a toothsome change
of diet either sliced raw or lightly
broiled over clear coals. To cure the
hams, proceed as follows: the legs of
fat sheep are cut into the shape of hams,
and rubbed over with a mixture of equal
parts of bay salt and brown sugar. They
then remain twenty-four hours
pickle is made as follows: Two pounds
each of bay and common white salt,
six ounces of saltpetre and one pound
of brown sugar are boiled in four quarts
of water, the liquid being skimmed as
it boils; when the pickle is cold the
hams are put into it and kept covered
for two weeks. They are then taken
ont, wiped dry, hung np, and smoked
over a slow fire of damp wheat straw,
The knuckles should be filled with
brown sngar and tied over closely with
pieces of bladder. The hams are then
hnng np in a dry, cool place or packed
in a close box or barrel in chaff or finely
out straw.
An improvement to pea sonp is made
by adding a few leaves of mint and
shred of onion to the parsley garnish.
In Europe a dish is made of the boiled
pods, and they are served as a vegeta
ble, but a more delicate way is to turn
them into sonp by boiling them until
they can be strained turough a colander,
then adding a little draw bntter, flour
thickening, and milk just heated to
scalding. The true votary of pea soup
never wants it made from the peas; the
pods have quite a different and better
taste, and the peas are then served for
the vegetable course or for the next day.
A fancy dish of potatoes is made by
pressing mashed potatoes through
colander; let them lie lightly in the
dish just as they fall, and then set them
in the oven to brown. They should be
well seasoned with bntter, pepper and
salt before they are put through the
colander. If yon like potatoes prepared
in this way, it is a time saving invention
to have a colander made for this purpose.
Take an ordinary tin pan, and have
holes punched in the bottom of the size
you require; it will then take but a few
minutes to prepare a large dish.
The Agriculturist tells how to make
a two-story milking stool that presents
a number of conveniences. A board
the width of an ordinary stool seat and
twice the length forms the first floor and
rests upon fonr stont legs. The two
rear legs pass up through the long
board and fnrnish t «o legs for a short'
board above that forms the, seat, two
front legs being placed iu the stool,
cleat is placed on the front edge of the
long board to keep the" pail, which is
set on the front naif of the first floor,
from falling off dnring the process of
milking. This arrangement prevents
any necessity for placing the pail on
the ground and brings it nearer to the
udder.
Frequent cultivation is a good sub
stitute jpr manure, bnt pays mnch bet
ter with manure than without. This
we have tried on garden crops,especial
ly potatoes, cabbage, beans, onions and
other root crops. An old saw has come
down to ns Irom the fathers that he
who would have early cabbage sprouts
must hoe them every morning belore
breakfast. We have tried this hi spring
time for mornings enough to prove that
it is not one of the old wives’ fables. In
the early morning the dew is on, and
this is charged with an available amount
of ammonia, which, of course, feeds the
roots below. If the surface is neglec

It is often desirable to know which is
the most profitable way to sell fowls—
alive,dressed or both dressed and drawn.
To find out weigh the fowl alive, then
after it is dressed and again after being
drawn. Record the weight in each
case, and ’.hen a little figuring, with
weight and market prices as basis, will
soon tell the inquirer what he wants to
know. Generally, we think, it will be
found that selling alive pays about as
well as to dress, particularly if the own
er’s time is valuable and be is not an
expert at picking. Those who buy and
dress for market on a large s«ale are
generally experts themselves at this
work or have such “artists” in their
employ.
The quantity of food needed by stock
varies even among animals of the same
age and breed, and it necessarily varies
to a greater extent amc-ng animals of
different breeds. Upon this subject a
farmer in England says it is sufficiently
correct to reckon on a sheep consuming
twenty, eight pounds of green food, an
ox or cow 150 pounds, a calf forty
pounds and a yearling eighty pounds
daily. At this rate an ox or cow con
sumes as much as five sheep. The lat
ter will require 10,220 pounds, or nearly
five tons apiece, the lormer 54,750
pounds, or nearly twenty-five tons of
green food, for its yearly maintenance.

Grain Drill.—An Ohio man has in
vented a grain drill which sows the
grain upon the surface of the prepared
ground in a row six inches broad and
covers it by shovels which throw the

them very light. Add the milk to the

sngar, beat the whites of the eggs stiff,
whip into the eggs some strawberry
juice well sweetened, spread the merin
gue smoothly on top and ornament with
bright scarlet berries.
If onions which are to be boiled are
put in salted water after they are peeled,
and are allowed to remain in it for an
hour before they are cooked, they will
lose so much of tlieir distinctive flavor
that they wili rarely remind one hours
after of what he had for dinner. On
ions that are to be eaten raw may be
treated in the same way. Both onions
and cabbage should have the first water
poured off after they have cooked fifteen
minutes and renewed from the boiling

Walk More and Sleep Soundly.
Mr. .John W. Cole, Principal of the Gale School,

“Trot, N. Y., April 7,18S3.
Having been afflicted for several years part
with illness, the cause of which was unknown to
for a long time, and my continued disability
getting to be of so serious and distressing a char
acter as to cause great anxiety with my family and
friends, I became Satisfied upon close investigation
that tne cause of my sickness was the diseased con
dition of my kidneys and liver. At this time by ac
cident a friend, who had similar symptoms to mine
informed me of the great improvement in his
health by taking Hunt’s Remedy, and persuaded
me to try it. I immediately commenced taking it,
and from the first bottle began to improve, and its
continued use affords very encouraging results. ^
can sleep soundly,walk better, am free from paip^
and the severe attacks of headache from which. I
suffered so much have disappeared, and I cheer
fully recommend Hunt’s Remedy for all purposes
which it is advertised. I will add m closing
that my wife has used it very successfully for pre
venting the attacks of sick headache with whieb
she had been afflicted from youth.”
Almost Disheartened.
A prominent citizen sends ns the following state
ment:
For several years I haveT>een very seriously af
flicted with a severe pain in my back, which I long
supposed to be lumbago or rheumatism of tie
back. More recently the pains had become
severe, so much so that it was with difficulty that
was able to get ont of bed in the morning: I had
tried various remedies without any apparent relief.
By the earnest solicitation of a friend I commenced
Hunt's Remedy, about three weeks ago, and its b
stantaneous benefits are wonderful, for I have hid
pains in my back since taking three doses; atd
am relieved from the pains, aches and exhaustive
weakness, the painful symptoms that usually ac
company disease of the kidneys. And I confident-
expect to be completely and permanetly cured
the use of it I most cheerfully recommend
Hunt’s Remedy to all who are afflicted with any
kidney or liver disease.

Water is sometimes used to cool a
circular saw it also enables a saw to
work in a smaller kerf, thus saving pow
er; and it also acts as a partial lubrica

each side of the saw near the centre.
Its use, however, should be avoided in
cold freezing weather. Allowing the
saw shaft to play endwise is one of the
most effectual means of keeping the
saw cool. When the timber springs
against the saw, tending to heat it at
the oertre, the end play of the shaft
allows the oentre ot the saw to yield; at
the seme time the-guide puts at its pe-

Flesh, muscle and mind alike deteriorate when

Growth of the Great West.
One best realizes the immensity of the em
igration into the West and Northwest, when
he views it from Chicago, which may be
said to be the gate city through which the
human t de of travel pours.
Stauding in one of the great depots of the
Garden City, notably in that of The Great
Bock Island Route, and viewing the
crowded irains departing for Kansas City,
Leavenworth, Atchinson, Council Bluffs,
Minneapolis and St. Paul, the thought pre
dominates that the West must be. and is
filling up so rapidly as to preclude the idea
of virgin lands being obtained in the near
future. The Rock Island sends out six
through trains daily, all of which are large
ly filled by people who are intent upon
founding new homes.
This great line of railway may fairly he

The consummate achievement 6f Rew
York Anglomania is doubtless the hunting
of the anise-seed bag over the gentle undu
lations of Long Island, but next to that is
the dnring of four in hands before English
coaches and riding thereon np into West
chester or through the Central Park. This
noble feat was performed Saturday by a
choice selection of Anglophuists known as
the Coaching Club. Eleven coaches, to
borrow the language of an enthusiastic
witness, “unwound like a bright nbbon
from the green centre of Madison Siyiare
and went rolling np Filth avenue to the
park.” The coaches—yellow body and
red under-carriage, claret body and canary
under carriage, or what not else—were
glorious with new paint; the harness
splendid with polished plate. The “gen
tlemen drivers’’ wore the uniform of the
club—dark green coats with gold buttons,
.yellow-striped waistcoats, drab trousers
and tall white bats—and must have looked
like tbe Pickwick Club on their travels—
and as they were exceedingly English, that
was well. There, was Colonel William
Jay and William K. Vanderbilt, Roosevelt
and Sturgis, Lorillard and Havemeyer,
Parker and Bronson, Kane, Newbold and
Kernochan, and wives and fair friends of
theirs; six persons to a coach, and all of
them seated on top. The coaches were, as
a reporter observes, “jiedestals of visions
of shimmering satins and flowers and pleas
ing figures”—only that and nothing more,
so far as it appears. The horns were
tooted with science, the horses pranced
and Colonel Jay “unreefed his whip arm”
at live o'clock. It was a glorious sight,
and crowds gathered to see it; thousands
that hadn't a dollar in tne world to spend
for fnn looked on and glorified the show.
It was really one of the circuses that an
aristocracy are always bound to provide to
accompany the “distressful breed” of the
lower classes. The common people in the
park admired to the full, be sure, the * gen
tlemen” in livery and the gay silks and
satins and flowers and faces Behind them.
When the parade was over and the noble
beings drew up their equipages before the
Brunswick to refresh their higher appe
tites at a table shaped like a wiffletree, it
was then discovered what the inside ot the
coaches were for. Ladders were drawn
thence, whereby the ladies might descend
from their lofty seats with decorum. Be
fore this age it has been a mystery.
Oysters.—The oyster-growers on the
coast of France have discovered that
oyster shells which are thrown back
into the sea produce thirty or fortv-iold

young oysters attach themselves to the
old shells in preference to any other ob
ject on the bed of the sea.

A writer from Gloverville, New York.,
gays the great bulk of the orders for back
and all winter gloves are given before tbe
first of May. Samples and staple stocks
are made up during January, and Febru
ary and March bring some cf the heaviest
buyers. Tbese, like all succeeding buyers,
are welcomed by the host of manufactur
ers, all, naturally, anxious and foolishly
determined to sell at any prices. The
jobber knows this and holds off, talking
‘dull trade,” “blue outlook,’' and msinn
atmg that goods will be and are being
offered low. He uses all hi* craft to cause
discouragement and to stir up the compe
titive spirit until a break in price* is caused,
wben he buys not hair the goods he would
had the market held firm, because he is
fearful that the market will get still weak
er. JSach succeeding buyer adds to tbe
panic until not only is the manufacturer's
profit rained, but the jobbets m their turn
are afraid of the weakness they themselves
have made in tbe market, m consequence ot
deferring the greater part of their pur
chases till iste, often as late as midsom-
This appears to have been the con-
diticn of things for the past and present
yean. The extensive seventy and iength
of last winter most, and did, clean ont the
not heavy stock that was prepared for it;
therefore a booming, trade was expected
early in this season, bat it did not come,
and although a large amount of orders have
been quietly placed later, they were taken
at very close margins All this is appa
rently, and is admitted by all the manu
facturers to be, the result of the causes-here
given.
Nearly all the gloves and mittens used
North America are made here, and must
be made here; therefore, the business can
and should he controlled here. Instead of
competencies made in this business being
rare exceptions, fortunes should be the
rale. As it is, enough goods to snpplv the
demand that must come, remain unsold,
and a boom is confidently expected by oar
most competent judges. Bat little prepa
ration, however, is being made for this late
trade so confidently expected. Instead of
stocks of staple goods being got ready, our
manufacturers are neglecting to get ahead
of their orders. In tbe past they have
filled their shops with unsold goods, ready
