TEE FARMER'S WIFE.
Bird-like, she’s up at day-dawn's blush.
In summer heals or winter snows;
Her veins with healthful blood atiush,
Her breath of balm, her cheek a rose;
In eyes—the kindliest eves on earth—
Are sparkles of a homely mirth;
Demure, arch humor is ambushed in
Tin clear curves ol her dimpled chin.
Ah! guileless creature, hale and good,
Ah! fount of wholesome womanhood,
Far from the world’s unhallowed strife,
God’s blessing on the Farmer’s Wife!
1 love to mark her matron charms,
Her fearless steps through household ways,
Her sunburnt hands and buxom arms,
Her waist, unbound by torturing stays;
Illithe as a bee with busy care,
She’s here, she’s there, she's everywhere;
Long ere the clock has struck for noon
Home chords of toil are all In tune,
And from each richly bounteous hour
She drains its use, as bees a Hewer.
Apart from Passion’s pain and strife.
Peace gently girds the Farmer's Wife.
Homeward (his daily labors done)
The stalwart farmer slowly plods,
From battling, between shade and sun,
With sullen glebe and stubborn sods;
Her welcome on his spirit bowed
Is sunshine flashing on a cloud!
All vanished is the brief eclipse!
Hark to the sound of wedded lips,
And words of tender warmth that start
From out the husband’s grateful heart!
O. well he knows how vain his life,
Unsweetened by the Farmer's Wife!
But lo! the height of pure delight
Comes with the evening’s stainless joys,
When by the hearthstone spaces bright
Blend the glad tones of girls and boys;
Their voices rise In gleeful swells.
Their laughter rings like elfin bells,
Till with a look ’twixt smile and frown
The mother lays her infant down,
And at her firm, uplifted hand,
There’s silence ’tnid the jovial band;
Her signal stills their harmless strife—
Love crown’s with law the Farmer's Wife!
Fc dames in proud palatial halls—
Of lavish wiles and jeweled dress,
On whom, perchance, no infant calls
(For barren oft your loveliness) —
Turn hitherward those languid eyes,
And for a moment’s space be wise;
Your sister mid the country dew
Is three times nearer Heaven than you,
And where the plains of Eden stir,
Dream not that ye shall stand by her,
Tho’ in your false, bewildering life.
Your folly scorned the Farmer's Wife.

How Not to Drown.
At, this season of the year deaths by
drowning are painfully common. One
can scarcely look in a newspaper with
out setting a record of several, the re
sult of carelessness, accident, or ignor
ance, and to the latter cause may be
probably ascribed the greater number.
It is astonishing to see how little is
known of the buoyancy of the human
body. Until the lungs are filled with |
water, it is easily supported. In still
water a piece of pine wood of sufficient
size to support the weight of a pound
or two, say a piece a foot square and
one inch thick, is enough when proper
ly used to keep one’s head above water;
and when the head is safe, no fears
need be had for the rest of the body.
Of course to float the head in this way
the hotly must be submerged, and this
is the first rule to be observed when in \
the water. Keep under as much as !
possible, only be careful to have the i
breathing apparatus, mouth and nose, j
in the air, a,nd the mouth even may be j
immersed for some time without incon- I
veuiertee.
The use to be made of the small piece
of wood above spoken of is merely to
aid in keeping the head above water,
besting one linger on it is quite as serv
iceable as to grasp it with the hand, and
much more so than to use both hands.
It should be remembered that anything
weighs more out of than in water, hands
and feet being no exceptions. This
piece of pine would prove of little use
should one attempt to sit on it, while it
is all that is necessary to prevent one
from drowning if properly used. With
the head supported by using one hand
or one linger, the other hand and the
feet may he used as propellers, and
even one who cannot swim at all can
make considerable progress in this way.
An ordinary chair is sufficient to sustain
two or three persons when properly
used, but will prove of little service to
one who endeavors to make a raft of it.
A knowledge of the fact that water
is buoyant, and a little self-possession
or presence of mind will often
serve as well or better than a
knowledge of swimming, and this
knowledge should be given to every
child. Try it with one, and see how
readily he will leant to support himself
end propel himself over water by means
of a small j ece of board, It is natural
lor persons in water to endeavor to get
themselves entirely out of it, and in
eases where boats are overturned we
find their passengers endeavoring to
climb upon them tor safety, forgetting,
if they ever kimw, that a boat is compe
tent to support more people in the
water than it will carry when upright.
I here is usually a little warning before
a boat capsizes, and every one should
endeavor to keep hold of something—a
rope, perhaps—by which their connec
tion with the boat may be maintained,
f in and soon as possible seize the boat
itself, not to climb on it unless the boat
is large, or ihe number of passengers
small, but to support themselves until
help comes, he it a longer or shorter
time.
All boats, large or small, should carry
considerable Moating material in the way
of seats, loose iloorlfig, etc., that may
prove of service in cases of emergency.
Many lives are lost in consequence of
the panic that usually ensues when an
accident happens on the water. All
who cannot swim, and sometimes those
who can, try to seize the first thing
within their reach, which often happens
to be a person as frightened and help
less as themselves, and the result too
often is the drowning of many who
might with a little thoughtfulness not
only have saved themselves, but have j
been of assistance to others. If you !
ever find yourself suddenly precipitated
into the water, the probability is that
you will go under, but if you will keep
your mouth shut and feet and hands
under, you will be sure to come up head
first, and if you are not too badly scared
the chances are that you will find some- i
to seize. \\ ith self-control and
the knowledge we are trying to give i
there are ninety-nine chances in
eveiy hundred against your drownino

There is nothing in this world so pure
and undefiled as the love of a lawyer for
his client. A recent case in this city |
proves this. The lawyers won a big
case for their client and got him a pile
of money, and, with a generosity never
before heard of, they have insisted upon
not keeping above half of what thev re
covered, for .their own use, and have
compelled their client to take the other
half. Never again let it be said that it is
better to lose all than to go to law and re
cover everything. — Fall Fiver Advance.
He Explained.
I thought I might as well drop in and
sec how” they run a weekly down in
South Carolina, and a little darky pilot
ed me up one street and down another
tint j 1 we halted before a stairway over
which hung a sign of “The Herald .”
The office was up four flights of stairs,
of course, and 1 had only reached the
landing of the first when a hunk of com
position cut from some old roller whizzed
past my head. There was nothing
strange in that, however, as all well
regulated offices keep half a dozen of
these hunks lying around as weapons of
defense, and 1 pressed on. At the head
of the second flight I looked up the dark
way and thought I saw a man with a
gun in his hands. All weekly newspa
pers having any influence always keep
at least one shot-gun lying around to in
timidate poets, and so I went whistling
along up the third flight. Then 1 was
certain that I saw a man, and certain
that the muzzle was looking down upon
me. Some editors stand at the head of
the fourth flight and practice at target
shooting to rest their weary brains, and
1 was wondering where liio bull’s eve
was when I heard a click! click! and a
voice called out;
“ Stand! or you are a dead man! ”
No man who thinks anything of his
clothes will ever bo found dead on .-a
stairway leading to a printing office. .1
came to a halt, and the voice continued:
“Throw up your hands and go down
stairs, or I’ll blow your brains into the
street! ’ ’
I didn’t believe he would, but as I
couldn’t prove it the best way was to
obey his lit tie request. I had just got
back to the hotel when in came the edi
tor and the foreman and the devil and
two comps, and they all began to talk
at once. They we e expecting a light
ning sort'd a politician up th >se stairs
at that very time, and if he one 1 got up
he was to open fire from a revolver and
have a scalp dance over the remains of
the Herald, it was a mistake, and they
were deeply grieved, and wo had a
lemonade together, and the man with
the gun shook hands again and whis
pered :
“ Rtq>! I had ray finger on ihe trig
ger and a tie id aim on your head, and if
you had lifted one foot an inch high to
come further up I’d have killed you as
dead as a hammer!”
After that I always sent four boys,
one after another, uo stairs with my
card and a written declaration that I
was not loaded. — Car. I),droit Free

A Tear for the Humorist.
Come weep with us, dear reader, over
the grave of American humor. It is
gone. It is busted and dead, like a
coekroael#fiattened in tho family Bible.
Gather about us, weeping friends, while
we dfive Fne cold cruel screw into the
coffin lid of busted American mirth.
Pour into the open grave your scalding
weep. America hasn’t a humorist to
day that she can lay her jaws to. No
one can regret this any more than we
do, not because it hurts our trade any,
for it does not. If we had a man on
this paper who claimed to be a humorist,
we would squat him into a heterogeneous
mass and use him for a paper weight.
But we have two or three journalistic
friends who had fooled us iuto the delu
sion that they were inclined to be face
tious, and without thinking about it
much we have laughed a good deal over
| their printed remarks. It will go hard
I with such men to be laid aside that way
j and stood up behind the door like an old
j umbrella. They will be out of a job and
I hard up for awhde until they can get
j some wood to saw. Such men as Mark
Twain and Josh Billings are left in their
! old age with only about $200,000 apiece,
j and Peck and Sweet and those men to
gether with the Detroit Free Press ntan
and Bob Burdette and Eugene Field,
will probably have to tramp it over
the country. All these men are
making money hand over fist, and they
are making it out of four or five million
people who haven’t the necessary men
tal acumen to drop to tlio never-dying
truth that they are being bamboozled
| by a half dozen men who don’t know a
j joke from a blue pill. —Bill Kjjc,
Why He Tramped.
“ Why don’t you go West?” demand
ed the man, after telling a tramp that
he had no small change and could not
| respond to his appeal for aid. “I’ve
been out there.” “Why didn’t you
j stay?” “’Cause I lost my all.” “What
all did you have?” “Stranger,” said the
J old man, as he leaned back and wiped
his fm-ehe*!, “I went to Illinois with
j SM,Ow in cash. I went into the business
gf raising frogs for the market. There
was every show that I would clear SIC,-
000 the first year, when a climax knocked
me plumb-center all in one night.”
“What was it?” “I had 23,000 frogs on
my farm, and every durned jumper got
up and jumped over on another man’s
land.” “They did?” “Did for a fact,
and, as I hadn’t branded a single one
of them, I couldn’t identify my proper
ty. That’s what broke me all up, and
I’ve come East to see about getting up
a machine to scratch a hog’s back—
something that will permit the hog to

The Ticliborne Case.
The main facts of the story are that
Roger Ticliborne was heir to a i mronetcy
and estate yielding §IOO,OOO a year. He
entered the army, remained three years,
and after visiting South America disap
peared, and is supposed to have been
lost at sea. His mother, proud and in
sane, wa-unwilling that the estate should
fall into the hand of the child of a de
tested daughter-in-law, and accordingly
advertised in Austrailia for the missing
heir. Arthur Ortou, a butcher aud a
low adventurer, immediately went to
England, aud, backed by speculators and
accomplices, claimed the estate. The
mother was an easy dupe, and though
the claimant was wonderfully unlike
Roger Ticlibourne, Hie swindle pro
gressed famously. 'l7ie trial of the case
occupied six years, and Orton was con
victed of being a perjurer and imposter.
The case occupied thirty-one days in
opening, forty-seven in summing up, the
Chief Justice took eighteen days in de
livering his charge, and the whole case
cost over 31,250,000. It is the most eele- <
brated lawsuit on record.

incorrectly) is from Walter Scott’s
“Lord of the Isle,” canto v., stanza 18:
O! inanv a shaft at random sent,
Finns mark tne archer little meant,
And many a word, at random spoken,
May soot he or wound the heart that’s broken.
“ Excelsior." —The title of one of j
the best known of all of the short poems |
of the late Henry W. Longfellow. That j
one word happened to catch hi? eye one I
autumn, eve in 1851, on a torn piece of
newspaper, and straightway his imag
ination took tire at it. Taking up a
piece of paper which happened to be
the back of a letter received that day
from Charles Sumner, he crowded it
with verses. As lirst written down,
“ Excelsior” differs from the perfected j
and published version, but shows a rush j
and glow worthy of its author
Yankee-Doodle. —in a curious book on j
the “Round Towers of Ireland,” the
origin of the term Yankee-Doodle is
traced to the Persian phrases, Yanki
Doonia, or inhabitants of the Now
World. Layard, in His book on “Nine
veh and its" Remains,” also mentions
Yanghi-Dunia as the Persian name of
America.
Clinrher. —Something that effectually
settles a point or argument. This ap
plication of the word is said to have
i arisen front two notorious liars being
matched, against each other. “I drove
a nail through the moon, once,” said
the lirst. “Yes,” said the other, .“I
remember the circumstance, and i went
around to the back and clinched it.”
Draw It in lid.- This term was origin
| ally used by the leader of a metropoli
; tan orchestra to violinists, when lie
j wished them to play softly: “Come it
j strong” was another term used bv the
! same party, when lie desired the orches
j tra to play loud.
j Coming to Ihe Scratch. —This was
originally a phrase used by boxers. In
, the prize ring it was usual to maxe a
j distinct mark or scratch in the turf, di
| viding the ring into two equal parts.
I “To come to the scratch” meant to
I walk to the boundary to meet the an
! tagonist.
Loot. —This word frequently occurred
| in the dispatches detailing the plunder-
I ing of Alexandria, during and immedi
ately following the recent bombardment
of the forts protecting that city. It is
an East Indian word, signifying plun
der, robbery, pillage, etc, It was intro
duced into the English language at the
time of the mutiny, 1857-8.

| that is so noticeable in everything the
| Japanese make or wear is no "doubt the
j result of constant association with their
| beautiful flowers. There must be a
: large sale for the different flowers in
their season, as there are numbers of
j plant peddlers constantly perambulat
ing the streets with different varieties in
{ pots, or in mat coverings for the protec
tion of their roots. At night, all through
the year, there are exposed for sale on
the streets large collections of plants in
flower. There are no bouquet sellers,nor
are cut flowers offered for sale on the
streets. The great passion appears to
be to see them growing and attached to
the mother plant. About the 20th of
April roses are in bloom. The rose has
been widely introduced into Japan from
| abroad and finds a eoncenia] home here.
How fo Catch Frogs.
The Washington Star thus tells how
frogs are caught in the Potomac: The
manner of catching them is to drift
about at night in a skiff among the
swamps which line the Potomac and its
creeks with a bull s eye dark lantern.
When the frogs i egin their loud, gut
tcra! < onversation with each other, the
hunter edg s up as near as possible to
his game and throws the intensely re
flected light from the bull’s-eye direct
ly upon the frog, which appear- to have
the eject of completely paralyzing him.
Once the light strikes idem they are
immovable, and will sut’er themselves
to be bagged without a murmur. One
expert stated to a Slur reporter that he
took a dozen from oft'one old rotten log
in Hunting Creek, but a big moccasin
snake struck out for him, and in getting
away he lost nine of them. The frogs
are particularly plump this year, and
their saddles tender as squab meat.
Humility is to make a right estimate of
one’s self. It is no humility for a man to
think less of himself than he ought,
Windmills.
The windmill is a fixture now quite
common on many farms throughout the
country. It has become a necessary im
plement for raising water where stock is
kept. Tn a general way it may be sflid
that there are two kinds of windmills,
pivotal and stationary. Pivotal mills are
those in which the entire franle of the
wood is turned about a strong pivot.
Stationary mills are those in which the
top of the mill only revolves, and is sup
ported upon a framework of masonry.
A foreign exchange gives the follow
ing information regarding the construc
tion of windmills. It says that the spot
selected for the establishment of a wind
mill should be far separated from trees*
mountains, houses and any elevated ob
ject capable of offering resistance to the
wind. One may select a spot by placing
a little mill at the top of a pole, and al
lowing it to revolve an hour after the
rising and two hours after the setting of
the sun. If the motion is constantly
regular, it i3 a sign that the wind blows
favorably in one direction. If, on the
contrary, the mill turns irregularly and
by .shocks, if it turns a little to the right
or to the left, it is a pl’oof that the wind
passes obliquely where it is found, and
therefore the place is not lit for estab
lishing a windmill.
The winds of the north, northeast,
south and southeast are the most ad
vantageous for a windmill, because they
blow both day and night, while the oth
ers only blow in the night, in a time of
tempest or rain. The operation of mill
ing is the same in a windmill as in a
water-fall; but the care of a windmill
should not be intrusted to any but those
who have had experience in furling and
unfurling the sails at the proper time.
On the approach of a shower, the sails
should be taken in and the mill allowed
to stand idle until the storm is over.
Windmills are now constructed in
which the ordinary sails are replaced by
thin boards* which by the aid of a pe
culiar contrivance can be made to slip
! over each other without stopping the
I mill. With such a mill there is no fear
of being surprised by the wind, because
in less than a minute the boards can be
placed in a mass like a beam, against
which tho wind has no special force.
! Nevertheless, if the mechanism should
j be found disarranged when the storm
comes the wheel would be 'shattered.—
