Benefit of Rye—Kvi> deserve# all
that recent writer# ssy cf it, and they
might have ad ’ed it* special nrd peerc
liar usefulness a* an occupier of the
ground thtough September and Octo
ber, when the mild watnith and mois
ture are favotable to the cunvenion of
nitrogen in the soil into soluble ni
trate*. which would then he mostly
lost by leaching if no active plant
roots are present to tetain it. This
loss is miaous to farm soils, and
should be prevented in gatdsns by
sowing rye as seen ss a row of bed is
vacant. Another unmeutioned merit
is the healthtnlness of rye Hour as an
occasional ehango of diet, far prefer
able to changing from diet to drugs.
The hardinsss and sturdy vigor of rye
add so greatly to its usefulness ia a
ceurse for field rotation that it might
well be made a question for discussion
wherever a debating club is eatabhsa
ed in a farming district, whether elov
•r or rye is cf most benefit to the farm
and the farmer.
Care vf Wood Ashes.— Wood ash
es aro excellent manure for most soils.
Even when analysis shows potash to
be present, the wood ah is helpful,
sines it contains more or loss phos
phate, and its potash is a forp> to lib
erate plant food in tho soil that wonld
otherwise on unavailable. Thera is no
better solvent for reverted phosphate,
and the drilling of word ashen with
*nt endangering other property from
fires It is not the presence of live
coals that cause this danger usually.
These are generally pretty well juard
ed againet. The great darger is from
•pooUneous eombnsticta in nebee that
bav* gathered dMnpness, and whose
petasfi ha bv abeorption of nitrogen,
been changed to saltpetre. This in
contact with wool, woolen rags or any
oilv substanes will generate fire. Ash

wooden receptacles Old barrels, so
often ased for this purpose, are mast
dangerous of ali. It does not cost
much O build a stone or brick ask

My Mo'hei’s Hands.
Sweh beautiful, benutilol hands;
They’re neither white nar small,
And y‘Hi, Ikn >w, would scarcely think
That they w*ra taw at nil;

A sculptor’* dream might bo,
Yot ar* tluso aged, wrinkled hands
Most dear to rue
Such beautiful, beautiful hands'
Though the heart was weary and sad,
These patient hands kept toiling ou,
That the children might be glad;
l almost weep, as I lank back on child
hood’s distant day,
I think how these hards wrested not
when mine wore at their play.
Snoh beautiful, beautiful handff
They’re growing feeble now,
For time and pain have left their mark
Cu baud* and heart and brow;
Alas, alas, the nearing time and tho
sad, sad day t) me.
When ’neatis the daises out of sight,
these bands will folded be.
But oh, beyond this shadow land,
Where all i* bright and fair,
I know, full well, these dear old bands
Will palms of victory bear;
When crystal streams, through end
leas years over golden sands,
And where the old gtow yonng again.

Quite an ingenious way of cooling a
journal that can not be stopped is to
hang a short endless belt on the shaft

At a receut meeting of the Anaeri

of singing, will be silent for a moment
and then give torth a faint song that
seems to come from a distance, though
the singar be not farther than ten feet
away. Thrushes and robbing, the lac
turer said, also have this power.

T!ie Great Success
Of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla is due to the
fact that it meets the wants of the
people, being economical to use and
always reliable and effective. Its in
gredients are the best, and their
combination the result of profound
study and skill. Thus, for all diseases
originating in impure blood, Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla stands unrivaled.
“Asa blood-purifier and general
builder-up of the system,” says Eugene
1. llill.M. I-)., .'ist Sixth avc., New York,
“I have never found anything to equal
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.”
Mrs. Eliza A. Clough, Matron of the
hi. E. Seminary, Tilton, N. H., writes :
“ Every winter and spring my family,
including myself, use several bottles of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Experience Ims
convinced me that, as a powerful blood
purifier, it is superior to any other pre
paration of Sarsaparilla.”
"Ayer’s Sarsaparilla gives better sat
isfaction than any other blood medicine
I handle.”—Geo.\V.Whitman, Druggist,
Albany, Indiana. *
