Tho decayed and vegetables, the sprouting po tatoes, beets, etc., the mouldy boards and kegs, the refuse of celery; plants that have passed the season there should be removed, and the cellar swept and cleaned, whitewashed, if possible, but nt least cleaned of cobwebs and mould.

There are those who have attempted to discard from their tables all potatoes which have been pro tected by the use of poison, but the green is now used so universally on all farms where potatoes are grown and without the least injury to the tubers that the fear is pretty well overcome.

Pleasure is the reward of moderation. shorn. Many go out for wool and return We open the hearts of others when we open our own. If you desire to be crowned, strive manfully, bear patiently. A character that will not defend itself is rarely worth defending. What we are at home is a pretty sure test of what we really are. The greatest evidence of demoraliza tion is the respect paid to wealth. There are no greater prudes than those ■women who have some secret to hide. The reproaches of enemies should from quicken us to duty, and not keep us it. He needs no other rosary whose thread of life is strung with beads of love and thought. Labor makes known the true worth of a man, as fire brings the perfume out of incense. The first sure symptom of a mind in health is rest at heart and pleasure felt at home. Ewl habits are webs which are too light to be noticed until they are too strong to be broken. Great ideas travel slowly, and for a time noiselessly, as the gods whose feet were shod with wool. T he world knows no victory to be compared and with failings. the victory over our own passions It is more manly to fail in a hundred enterprises those than to sit down and grum bleat who are trying.

Musical plates are made in a similar manner, but the mechanism in them dobs not but play when the plate is on the table, wheft it is lifted to be passed around.

The gawOike note of the great tit mouse is said to foretell rain; that o! the blue-tit; cold. . Various proverbs would seem to indi cate that the cry of the owl, if heard in bad weather, foretells a change. Herons, says an old author, flying doubtful up and down in the evening as if where to rest, “presage some evil ap proaching weather”—a legend as old as Virgil. dwellers the country In Germany in lack faith in the skylark as announcing fine weather, but when the lark and the cuckoo sing together they know sum mer has come.

Before heavy rains they raise their nests. much store In the south of France so is set by the wisdom of the magpie, that if it builds its nest on the summit of a tree the country folk expect a season of calm, but if lower down, winds and tempests are sure to follow. The abhorrence in which mariners hold the swallow-like storm petrel is well known. Its appearance is believed to denote wild weather. This little bird is the Mother Carey's chicken of sailors, and is also eaiied storm finch and water witch. Concerning gulls in general, Children who lire by the sea say: “Beagull, sea gull, weather sit while on the sand; it’s never good you're on the land;” and fisher folk know that when the sea mews fly out early and far to seaward fair weather may be expected. When rooks fly high and seem to imi tate birds of prey by soaring, swooping, and falling, it is almost certain sign of coming storm. Staying in the vicinity of the rookery, returning at midday, or coming to roost in groups are also said to be omens to the like effects.

The Pantshen Lama. The selection of the Pantshen lama, whose headquarters are at the monastery of Krashis Lunpo in Further Thibet, and who has Shared the bverlordship of Thibet with the Dalai lama since the fifteenth century, took place at Lhassa, recently. The ceremony is, perhaps, the strangest revival in the ritual of any church. It was an old idea with the northern Buddhists that distinguished members of their order were incarnations of divine beings, who, while continuing to live in heaven, had the power to as is aume an earthly held existence. This belief still regarding the pontiff of Gedun Dubpa and Krashis Lunpo, the one being looked on as the incarnation of the third person in the Trin ty, of which the great teacher is the head, and the other that of the sec yd .person in “r,r- portwfaiSf’ S" shen lama did some time ago, the other has to set to work and discover wherein the celestial spirit has embodied himself anew. The first step is to get the names of all the male children born just after the death of the deceased lama, and to select three from these, one of which, cast by lot, is the name of the new incarnation. About the beginning of the year the ( hinese Resident at Lhassa was informed that three “young boys of remarkable had found, intelligence and strangeness” been and after some time spent in communicating brought with Pekin, the youngsters were to Lhassa and preparations made for the grand cere mony. All flic abbots of the great mon asteries were present to supervise the week of prayer; the three children were received by the Resident and the Thibe tan authorities “in order that their in tclligence and diffeience from other per sons might be tested,” and finally on an auspicious of day the boys a golden having vase containing the fate been brought in and which placed stands in front the of the emperor s image, in hall at Gedun Dubpa, the lot was drawn and the elect of the three nailed as Amitabba incar sate, the ! antshenRinpotshe, “Glorious Teacher,” henceforth to rule over half Thibet, Why Do Bees Work In the Dark?

It has not been suspected photographic that this change is due to a which action, that the same agent determines the formation of camphor the and iodine honey crystals in a bottle, causes syrup to assume a crys talline form. This, however, is tne case. M. Schiebler, an eminent chemist, has enclosed honey in stoppered flasks, some of which he has kept in perfeet dark ness, while otheis have been exposed to the light. The invariable result has been that the sunned portion rapidly crystallizes, while that kept in the dark has remained perfetly liquid And this is why bees work in perfect darkness, and why they are so careful to obscure the glass windows whieli are sometimes placed their in their depends hives.

A Buried City Strangely Brought to Light in New Mexico. The propriety of a bill introduced a day or two ago by Chairman Holman of the Committee on Public Lands into the United States House of Representatives, to set apart a large tract of land near Mexico, Coohite, on the liio Grande, in New as a national reservation, on account of its many archaeological re mains, was illustrated and confirmed by the Hon. Amada Chavez; one of the leading lives citizens of the Territory, who not far from that section of coun try, Paso and who comes occasionally to El on business. He discovered a short time ago, one mile north of the little town of Snu the Maeto, the mins of an extensive city, existcnco of which had never oven been suspected before. The action of the windshade covered the larger por tion of the ruins with sand and other detritus, and converted the whole into an extensive mound, and it was only a severe rain storm and cloud burst, sweeping away one angle of this mound and disclosing some heavy stone walls, that made the discovery possible. Mr. Chavez has since uncovered one or two of the ruins and obtained a number of interesting having relics. A skeleton was found tlireq strands of beads around its neck—one of turquoise, one of jet, and the other of bone. There were also large ttm earrings of jet and turquoise with skeleton, and remains of the hair, which was not black, but light brown, besides ornamental pottery arrow-heads, with a quantity of maize, partly carbon ized. This skeleton, with the artioles enu merated, was found in a small chamber of masonry built up with a very adhe sive cement. The excavations thus far made have discovered a large building, with massive stone walls ana a tower at each corner. It looks more like the re mains of a citadel than an ordinary kind, dwelling. and The the masonry is of the best interior chambers are plastered and painted white.
