Ephraim, that they “feed upon wind.”
A patch of rye and timothy seeded
together always comes “pat.” Tho rye
will make pasture in the spring even
earlier than bluegrass, and by the time
the rye fails the timothy will be ready.

There was a race lately in Zanzibar be

though the bird came in a hundred yards

was awarded where it did not belong.
Sailors believe religiously that the

The etymology of the word honeymoon
is thus given by a good authority:
“Among tho northern nations of Europe
there was ancient practice of newly mar
ried couples to drink metheglin or mead,
a kind of wine made from honey (hy-

Hence the term honeymonth or honey
moon. Attila, the Hun, drank so much
mead at his wedding feast that he died.”
Vegetables of National Importance.
The importance of vegetables in the
United States, says a writer in the Inde
pen lent, has been partially demonstrated
in late years by the regular establishment
by Congressof the “Section of Vegetable
Pathology,” since, while this section at
tends to the diseases of vines and fruit
trees, it alBO investigates those of vege
tables. A small appropriation was
granted to the ! epartment of Agricul
ture for the support of this section, and
those in charge of it have already gath
ered a good deal of information a3 to the
potato rot in the United States. The
Botanical Division has also published
15,000 copies of tho “Circular No. 4,”
on “Treatment of the potato and tomato
for the blight and rot.”
How strange all such Government as
sistance would have seemed to the Eng
lish 300 years ago, when, as Smiles tells
us, gardening, “though loDg practiced
by the monks had become almost a lost
art in England.”
In 15 )5 we are told that a sum equal
to twenty shillings was paid at Hull for
six cabbages and a few carrots. And a
writer of 1050 tells of an old man who
remembered “the first gardener who
came into Surrey to plant cabbages and
cauliflowers, and to sow turnips, carrots,
and parsnips aud early peas ; all oi
which at that time were great wonders,
we having few or none in England but
what came from Holland or Flandeers,”
She Sugar Trait
Tho closing of another refinery at
Boston, Mass., by the sugar trust Indi
cate! that it is the policy of the trust to
aupply the Eastern market from its plant
in the vicinity of New York city. The
whiskey trust or alcohol trust of the
West has undertaken in tho same way to
concentrate its producing plant in Peoria,
aud has closed many distilleries in other
cities. It appears that although the two
sugar refineries in Philadelphia that have
not entered the trust are compelled to
pay more than the trust for raw material,
they undersell the trust by one-eighth of
a cent. The trust will undoubtedly re-
uew its efforts to bring these refineries
into the ring. If it should succeed, it
would have uo formidable opponent ex
cept Claus Spreckels, and his new re
finery at Philadelphia, Pa., cannot be iu
operation before next Summer.
Safeguard Against a Fast.
Medical and other professional inen
often break down from their inability to
keep a regular time for meals. An
eminent doctor says:
“Being often out for many hours, and
becoming too exhausted to digest a full
meal when at length able to get it, I
conceived a plan which answered ad
mirably well, and which other doctors
gladly adopted. I provided myself
with a small bottle of lime water, which
I added to a glass of milk when passing
a dairy shop; or I put a small flask of
the mixture in my pocket. A water
biscuit with this will keep a man from
harm on a long fast, and enable him to
digest a meal when he is able to obtain
it.”

Coll, Exon, Oxon., Sept., 1888.
Dear Sir: In April, 1885, while thinking of taking
orders in September, I suddenly received notice thal
my ord inatlon examination would be held In a fort
night. I had only ten (10) days in which to prepam
for the Exam. I should recommend a year's prepar
ation in the case of anyone so utterly unprepared as
I was; but your System had so strengthened mu nat
ural memory that I was able to remember and give
the gist of any hook after reading it ones. I there
fore read Lightfoot, Proctor, Harold Browne,
Uosheim, Ac , Ac., once, and was successful in every
one of the nine papers. Thb present Bishop of Eden-
burg knows the facts. Faithfully yours,
[Rev.l James Middleton Macdonald [M, A.1.
