A QUEER SOCIETY. Th« Work of a Cigar.—Tip- Saving Association. Oolleoting and Disposing of Oigar Ends in tho Interests of Charity. Not Jong ago tho average American citizen bit off or cut off tho small end of h a cigar, before lighting, and throw it away. Since an internal stamp duty was placod on cigars, and their price has advanced as a consequence, he does not generally dispose of tho ends 1 > tnis way. On the counter of nearly every place where cigars are sold is a little machine for cutting off the end before the smoker places the cigar in Lis mouih. The tips fall Into a receptacle, from which they are collected at tho cose of each day. In some cases they are disposed of to per¬ sons who smoke pipes, and in others they are sold to manufacturers of fine-cut or granulated smoking tobacco. Stoekho'm is tho headquarters of a benevolent eigsr-tip-saving association, of which tbo King of Sweden is presi- dent. All members of this society pro- vide themselves with an apparatus for cutting off the ends of cigars, with which is combined n box for holding tho frag- ments. This is carried in tho pocket and can,if desired,be attached to or nw lo a part of a cigar cam. At convenient times tho contents of tho little box aro emptied into a suitablo receptacle, kept at home, and toward the end of the year the entire collection of cigar-tips is for¬ warded to Stockholm. There they aro sold at auction and the proceeds cm- ployed in providing a sumptuous banquet for poor children. At this banquet, which usually occurs at Christmas or New Years, there is an illuminated tree oa which presents for the poor children are placed. Brunches of this association have been established in Germany and Great Britain during the past few years, and the revenues of the society arc now very large. It is now proposed to form a similar association in the United States. In several Europeao countries charred cigar “stumps” have a commercial value, They are bought by shepherds for mak¬ ing a decoction for killing insects on sheep. Florists also buy them for the purpose of burning in green-houses or for steeping in water that is u c ed for syringing plants infested by ants or other insects. Some gardeners employ them for making nicotine wafer, which is said hasten tho growth of certain flowering plants and to enuso them to put out very large blossoms. In _ _ Pans, . according ,, to Lo Temps, col- feting e e* is the an “stumps” lm ustry of in cigars which and several cigar- hundred persons of both sexes arc regu- larly engaged. To be successful in this business it is necessary to be up early and late. Late at night, discarded rolls of tobacco can be seen by thc fire on them. The colleetors accord¬ ingly throng theatres, opera-houses, con¬ cert saloons, restaurants and wine shops, ready to pick up the fragments of cigars and cigarettes that the patrons of these places throw into the street. Tho boule- wards and parks are visited early every morning long before the sweepers make their rounds. The remnants collected »ne sorted during the day and spread out on paper to dry. Some of the fino to- bacco is made over into cigarettes. A portion of it is converted into 6nuff. Tho loaves in cigars, deprived of thc ashes and burned portions, aro sold for smok¬ ing in pipes. The waitersfin restaurants save the cigar and cigarette ends left on plates and sell them to dealers or manu¬ facturers. Thus hundreds of people pro¬ vide themselves with thc necessities of bfe in saving the remains of the luxuries of the rich.— Chicago Times. Mockery. Pompous Hanker—William, Pm going to tho Exchange.

Fouuder, from Overfeed, A contributor to tho New York Tri¬ bune nays: A little city boy spending a week with an Ohio farmer fed a youDg horse in pnsturo nineteen cars of old corn. Tho owner found tho animal fin- Uhing his feast, nml thinks he could have saved him from founder had ho known what to do. Overeating, and consc- qu nt foundering, is ono of those things moro easily proventcl than cured. The results of the total disarrangement of the system by tho impaction of tho stomach and bowols cannot be wholly avoided, but they may be ameliorated by judicious treatment. No water is to bo given, or the food would swell and fer¬ ment and rupture the stomach, with very quickly fatal results. A largo dose of raw linseed oil is the best remedy, and a quart is the right quantity. This causes the ejection of the undijested matter and the relief of tho intestines. Tho after treatment is of importance; the stomach wonts rest, and feeding should bo wholly su pended for twenty-four hours, when n quart of oatmeal gruel only should bo given. Oue quart of this at a meal is sufficient for the next day, after which regular feeding should bo approached gradually and cautiously. The resulting stiffness of the fore limbs should bo treated by thirty-drop doses of aconite and hot fomentations and rubbing of the legs and feet with some active liniment, II am-Yard .Ylanure. Prof. Wyatt, in his present work, “Modern High Farming,” nttempts to impress upon farmers the necessity of al¬ lowing theirfarm-yard manures to under¬ go a thorough process of fermentation, to so completely rot or carbonize beforo making use of them in the field. In or¬ der to make his meaning still more clear, he says; “Let it he remembered that first, if freshly made manure be put into the soil, the saline and nitrogenous portions will nil bo washed away by the first fall of ruin and lost. Second, if the manure be allowed to thoroughly ferment, the nitrogenous mat¬ ters will remain insoluble in the soil,and will thus be held at the disposal of the plants ready for assimilation. A few experimenters have striven within the past few years to persuade themselves and the world that the total abandon.nent of farm-yard manure and the sole employment of chemical fertili¬ zers would result in immense economy and increased production; but in nearly every case within our knowledge where the reduction of these theories has pre- vailed over common sense, the result has bccn _ to 8 thc least discouramnm \^ Artlflcial raaaures o{ every d arQ necessary, we have always admitted and sha U always propound; but that they can ever profUabIy and u , efully re p laca those made ou the farm, is a proposition too ridiculous to merit discussion.” Value of Artichokes. Jerusalem artichokes are similar but slightly inferior to potatoes in nutritive value, says Rural World , but, owing to their immense yield and cheapness of r lisi »g> Ullic b more valuable as stock, particularly hog, food. Yields of ono and two thousand bushels per aero are obtained, while tho culture is not as cost 'y as that of potatoes. Thc planting ‘ s ^ one ia about the same way, but the growth of stocks is so strong that the ground is soon covered, and all weeds are effectually choked out. Although the leaves and stalks are rough and coarse, stock are very fond of them, and will greedily eat the tops to the ground if allowed to get to them. Usually the hdfs arc turned into the patch after the tubers have matured, which will not be until late in the season, and allowed to do their own digging. Fed in this way with the tops left on the ground and the droppings of the hogs also, the crop can¬ not fail to improve the land. A freez¬ ing does not injure the tubers in the least, either for food or seed. They can bo left in tho ground until spring, and then fed to the hogs. Usually the hogs will leave enough of flu tubers in the ground to reseed it, if not kept there too long. Some prefer, however, to let the hogs clean out the patch thoroughly and replant in hills and drills, rather than let a volunteer crop come up. Many arc afraid to plant them for fear that once get them into the land they can. not be eradicated. The fear is unfound- ed, and it is strange they aro not more widelv grown. The red Brazilian is eon- sidered the best. Overrcflnement In Itrcedlng. Those acquainted with the methods common wiih some breeders of swine, and the results obtained, know that thero is a tendency to overrefine their swine. Breeding to a refined standard without cautionary reserve easily results in a fineness of bone, a body almost de¬ nuded of hair, charming to look upon by the fancier who exhibits at the show ring but objects of suspicion to the utilitarian hog raiser, in whose miud the possession of these attributes in an exaggerated de¬ gree is associated with delicacy of con¬ stitution, infecuiulity and a degree of trouble and vexation in raising tho young pigs only to be realized by those who have had it to do. Some breeders will remember how at oue time the Saffolks, highly esteemed as they then were, were by many breeders so finely bred, that sows would only drop four to six pigs at ft time, and these were as much trouble to raise as so many delicate children_ subject to chills if the weather was the least cool, with hardly strength enough to take their natural nourish¬ ment, succumbing quickly to the slight¬ est exposure, or to disturbances of the bowels, to which the young pig of feeble constitution is so prone, A well-known writer says on this subject: “No man who wants a hog for profit, will have his wants fully met until he gets such as are hardy enough to stand pretty severs cold, some neglect, and be quite ready to thrive with plain, even what would bo rough feed for the oxquisttely bred and pampered hog. The pigs of tho stronger kinds—thoso with plenty of hair and not too fine bone—will survive, though they are farrowed in cold weather, and this, too, without extra care and nurs¬ ing, Moro pigs will bo dropped at each farrowing time, and it is safe to say that half a dosen strong, well-haired, thrifty sows will raise as many pigs in a season as will be saved and raised by ten sows exquisitely bred and accustomed to closo confinement .’’—Chicago Times. Fall Plowing. Fall plowing, says Bin: Porley Pooro in tho Cultivator, is important for those who mean to farm well. Ono great trouble in our farming is tbo fact that we do not till our lands enough, Ono shallow plowing in the spring, with many a balk and dodge not plowed at all, is too often considered sufficient; but what right has nny one to expect a good crop from such tillage? If it is obtained, it is the result of accident. Yes, gentlemen, such of you ns would raise good crops from year to year, ir¬ respective of drought or wet seasons, must till your land thoroughly and deep while ycur teams are vigorous and healthy in tho fall. Speed the plow over stubble and corn-hill, and not only over but under them, the deeper the better. Yes, tbo deeper the better, ex¬ cept, perhaps, in some extraordinary instances. Turn up the furrows as deep and ridgy as possible this fall, and let them frost-slack through the winter. Keep everything off that can tramp in the least if there is any clay or marl in its composition. Let it stand in that shape, and when spring comes I will tell you what further to do with it, to be almost sure of a good crop of wheat, oats, corn, or anything els3 that will grow in this country. Plow all you possibly can in the fall, for the purpose of lightening your labor in tho spring, which, at the best, is always short with us, after the fields are dry enough to plow, besides the additional considera- tion that teams are usually in the worst possible plight to do any considerable amount of work. ’ Therefore, speed tho plow every leisure moment this fall, cot only to save time in the spring, nor merely to pulverize the soil with frost (which, by the way, is an all-important thing), but last, though not least, to destroy the insects and vermin that have gone into wiuter quarters. Doubtless, late fall plowing will be found our best protection against the increase of all such pests. Transplant,(is Emit Trees. The transplanting of fruit trees is very simple and effective when properly un- derstood. Trees should never be planted in a square or round hole, such as you would dig for setting a post. Many trees transplanted in this way die, much to the discouragement of the planter, who attributes his failure to the insects, drought or anything rather than to the manner of transplanting. A good plan is to take a plough and break out tho wholo length of tho row each way, checking fifteen, twenty to fifty feet each way, as you may elect, running five or six or more furrows each way, making sure to break the land as deep as you wish to set the trees. It is best to uso a two horse plough; then iu each check you can draw out the earth a sufficient width and depth to suit the roots of tho tree to be planted. Trimall broken roots smoothly and straighten them out at full length in the hole; cover care- fully so as to get the earth firmly around each root, then fill up the hole and press the soil down firmly with tho foot. Not ono tree in a thousand will die if planted this way, provided the tree was all right when it was sel. As a general rule, trees should b e transplanted to the same depth that they stood in the nursery, or where they were growD. Dwarf pear trees are an excep¬ tion to this rule, and should be planted deep enough for the union of the pear and its quince roots to be below the sur¬ face of the ground, so that natural roots may shoot out from the pear in course of time, thereby converting the dwarf into a stnndard tree. The object In breaking the land each way as above advised, is in order that the roots may have free access to loose, raellow cnrth > to run in every direc- ^' on ^ rom ^ ree - Yf only asmall num- ^ er * rees a e Lie planted a mattock or spading fork would suffice, using care to break the ground each way several feet from where the tree is to stand .—From “How to Plant." ItecJpes, Fried ArPi.ES— Wipe a few nice, smooth-skinued apples, have ready a spider with a little butter and lard in it, let it get hot, and slice tho apples into it, sprinkle a little sugar over them, and fry slow to a nice brown, taking great care not to let it burn.

Flavor to taste. Vanil¬ la is the nicest, Corn Soup—S oap of green corn pulp is excellent. Put in a saucepan half a pint of finely cut cabbage, one gill of celery also cut fine, two potatoes,A)ne small onion and two small carrots, all sliced, with two quarts of water, r.nd simmer for one hour. Then add one pint of peeled tomatoes cut in slic.-s, and boil half an hour longer. At the end of this time add half a pint of green corn pulp and let all boil up at once; season to taste and serve. If desired, the soup may be strained. CLIPPINGS FOR THE CURIOUS. Flies have been employed as sanitary Inspectors and used for detecting tho lo¬ cation of causes of disease from decom¬ posed substances. Thero are two families of tho name of Dodd in Barton county, Georgia. They are not related, and interest in them arises from the fact that one of the fami¬ lies is composed of nino girls, while the other is mado up of eight boys.

In a conversation with a leading law- ycr recently, we fell to talking about glut- tons an( i gluttony, and he told me a story about the gluttony of a brother lawyer who was in the front rank of his profes- 8 i° n iu this city, but who, a year or two a g°> fell a victim to his intemperate habit of eating and drinking. “I was w ’fb him and another eminent lawyer,” Mid my friend, “at Conoy Island sev- eral summers ago, and one day he re- quested our company at his parlors at 11 o’clock that night, ‘to a little lunch.’ We were on hand, and were somewhat; a PP a lled at the costly and extensive re- P ast which ho had ordered. There was such a variety of dishes and so many courses that it required all our ingenuity to Tror 'b °ur way through them, and pre¬ ten d to partake of each, so as not to bring on a fit of illness. But not so with our host, who partook largely of every- thing on the menu. I will tell you a few things that he got away with. Among them were two cups of coffee, an oyster 6 ^ ew . a dozeu raw, a whole lobster, a large dish of chickeu salad, several slices of bread and butter, and two quart-bot¬ tles of champagne. We got away with our lives at one o’clock, and though I retired to bed I lay awake until morn ing, expecting to hear that my friend had been seized with a mortal illness. As the tidings did not arrive, I arose about breakfast time, still expecting to find that he was dead. But, on the contrary, he was the first man I met on the piazza, looking ai fresh as a rose. We have another prominout lawyer in Chicago who is going the same way.” - Chicago Journal. Taking Care of Animal Pets, There are several places where birds, dogs and cats arc taken in and cared for, and those who have a reputation for carefulness make it very profitable, says a New York letter to the Troy Times. Ono bird dealer’s store was studded with cages, each containing a pet and each duly labeled to correspond with the re¬ ceipt which is always given nnd always required when the cage is taken away. Dogs are cared for at the dog fanciers’, and the animals are leashed under a shed, and are occasionally taken out for exer¬ cise. One of the most successful per¬ sons in this business is a woman who has a well-established reputation, and is therefore extensively patronized. She charges $8 a month for cats and from $0 to $15 lor dogs. Birds are cheaper, and a canary is boarded for $2 a month, while mocking birds are $5. This wo¬ man’s husband does most of the work, and claims to be a doctor for both ani¬ mals and birds. They feed the cats milk and fish, with minced liver and oc¬ casionally boiled rice. Dogs are fed bread and milk, soup and meat in small quantities, as it heats the blond, “Dog crackers” (ns they are called) are exten¬ sively used. They are mado in England, nnd large quantities are now imported. The birds got seed, crackers, eggs and apples. The food is constantly changed, this being favorable to health—and if a pet should unfortunately die it is im¬ mediately stuffed. This establishment will probably clear $1000 for the past season, and yet how few have any idea that such a business exists. THE YOUNG MIDSHIPMAN.

If the roof had fallen the admiral would have not been so much astonished. But quickly recovering his self posses¬ sion ho grasped tho lady's hand and said : “Why, bless you, I knew you from the first, and wanted to scq if you re¬ membered mo.” “Jim, Jim,” sho rojoined, Why don’t “ you are just as bad as evor. you grow bettor as yon g ow old ?
