Another Yeastern diffi culty, it is presumed. —Norristown Her ald,.' —Said Brown, looking about the es tablishment: “I don’t see Belcher around. How do you get along without him? You told me he was your right hand man.” “So he was,” replied the storekeeper, “but now he is left.”—Bos ton Transcript. —A medioal journal explains how to make a “dropper”—an arrangement to drop medicine out of a bottle. The quickest and most emphatic dropper wo ever saw was a young man who en s— bared a blacksmith shop and picked up a that had just come out of the fo\.a. He dropped it with so much dropabTeness, so to speak, that it made him perspire—and swear. —The Judge. —The New York Graphic prints pic tures of “the great diamonds of the world.” There are about thirty of these precious stones, and the most surprising thing about them is the fact that not a single one of them is owned by an edi tor. Newspaper men never did care much for jewelry 7, anyhow. —“Oh, I’ve just had such a scare!” exclaimed a prim and pale housewife; “I feel as if I should faint.” “Why, what’s the matter?” was asked. “Well,” she replied, “yo : may not believe it, but as sure as I live that new girl deliber ately opened the parlor shutters and the sun was shining right in.” —“ Have you ever before been pun ished by the law?” asked an Austin Justice of a oolored culprit. “Yes, I called a man a liar, and I had to pay a fine.” “Is that the only time you have come in eonfliot with the law?” “Now fiat yer speaks ob hit, Jedge, I bleeves I was in de penitentiary for ten yeahs, ef I disremember myself”— Texas Siftings. —A society drama was presented at the theater at Salt Lake City recently, but when in the third act the husband began to rave and tear around because his wife had run away with another man, the audience with one accord rose from their seats and exclaimed: “The idea of making all this fuss about one 'woman 1 ” and left the place in disgust. —San Francisco Chronicle. —The firm, steadfast character of Massachusetts men is seen also in things material. Look at the weathercock, for instance. This, elsewhere the symbol of instability and fickleness, is here transformed into stability itself. When ths thing gets turned toward the rising sun, its fixity of purpose, its staying power, its rigid inflexibility, is simply sublime. It knows no north, no south, no west. —Boston Transcript. —A distinguished physician says that the garments worn by women are preferable to those worn by men. He may speak from experience, but we don’t believe he ever wore a walking cos tume of royal blue cloth, with facings, revers, and pelerine of velvet plush,with a velvet basque, a long, clinging pelisse trimmed with lace jabots down the front and back, Charles 11. collar, and a tiny black velvet poke and a rib-compressing corset cut entrain, and so forth. Hardly. —Chicago Times. Sir Garnet Wol eley’s Coolness on the Battlefield. All accounts are agreed as to. Sir Garnet’s demeanor b lit before an 1 ;Tter •the fight.- His coolness an-.I -cl -reliance were extraordinary. Cu the mo ning before the battle, when lie took all the Genqjals and their respective staffs to reconnuiter the enemy’s lines he dis mounted within a couple miles ufTol-ol- Kebir, an.d gathering the others around him, explained cvaetly what he count to do. With a short stick he po ntod to the intrenchmiuts as lie might to a blackboard in a lecture-room, and qui etly indicated in turns th position of each part of the attacking ; o roe. He had the whole thing otV by heart, knew and explained in exact detail what ev ry regiment had to do. While they were thus occupied protected only by a small cavalry escort, the eumv’se tout a party to observe them, but mad - no further demonstration. Wolseley's “lecture” finished, they all remounted anil rode back to camp. After the battle was pra •tieally won, Sir Garnet came t sthe bridge across the canal communicating the light wi ll the left attack, and getting oil his hor e, quietly began to write iiis telegram an nouncing the victory on a scrap of na- Eer handed to him b one of ids ta t. Lere, too, lie received th reports from the various staff officers of divi ions and brigades, asking mor. particularly as to -' casualties. “Are you unit - -ur ?’’ li ■ always said, “hun t giv - in - wrong figur-s.

Be wondrous wary of your first com portments ; get a good name, and be very tender of it afterward; for ’tis like the Venice glass, quickly cracked, never to be mended, though patched it may be. To this purpose, take along with you this fable. It happened that Fire, Water and Fame went to travel toget her (as you are doing now) ; they consulted that if they lost one another, how they might be retrieved, and meet agaiu. Fire said, “ Where you see smoke, there you will find me.” Water said, “Where you, see marsh and moorish low ground ■mere"you shall find me.” But Fame said, “ Take heed how you lose me, for if you do you will run a great hazard never to meet me again ; there’s no re trieving of me.” You never see the straggle Detween duty and inclination more strongly marked than in the respectful attitude of a dog sitting on the sidewalk, his head bent back and one foot aimed at the back of bisear, undecided to spring up and answer the imperative whistle of his master or sit still and sSpot the flea lie has* just got the *xact range and right elevation on.— Burlington Ifau'keye i Mrs. Mehnert, who is ninety nine years old, has kept the Golden Trumpet Hotel, Reichenbach, Ger many, for eighty consecutive years, and is still hale and hearty. ! Selection of a Farm* There are many things to be consid ered in the selection of a farm. To the i rich gentleman who wishes to retire from tne noise and tumult of city life, a farm has a different meaning than to the poor man who must toil daily for the maintenance of himself and family. The former will look through golden eye-glasses and seek for luxuries in the country, xvhile the latter must obtain the necessities of life. The one will let in dividual taste rule in the choice, the oth er asks himself: “Is this the best place j for me to do substantial fanning?” No general rules can be given for the rich man who buys a farm for the purpose of spending money, while for the one who seeks to make a living from the land there are some words of advice. The size of a farm should be suited to the capacity of the pocket-book. Many young farmers make the mistake of buy ing a large farm with little money to pay for it. There is nothing that so binds a man as a heavy mortgage. It eats the very heart out of the farmer, and hangs like a leaden weight upon every aspiration of his wife and chil dren. It is better to buy a small farm iud have enough capital to work it well. As the surplus increases, it may be in vested in more acres, or in a better culture of those that have already proved profitable. There is a size be low which many of the economies of the farm cannot bo practiced to the best advantage, and on the other hand there is danger of going beyond that acreage where the most profitable farming may be carried on. It requires considerable executive ability to manage a large farm, and therefore many men are excluded from such by a lack which they may not fully appreciate until the trial has been made and the failure re corded. Farming is not like the taking of a qitadel, and cannot be done successfully with a rush and a noise. It is a thoughtful and steady working out from well laid plans—a conquest for crops, and the head must be clear that wins whore the seat of a campaign for a life time covers town ships or even square miles. The soil is the foundation of farming, and it should be fitted to the kinds of crops that it is desired to raise. The differences in the nature and capacities of sand and clay should be understood, and a favorable mixture of the two obtained if the e is an opportunity for choosing. A rich soil, with proper management, means good crops at once, but it may be as profitable to invest much less in an equal area of over-cropped land, and bring it up to a high state of cultivation by green manuring and other methods of restoration. The farm-house is to be the home uf the family, and therefore the locality for the farm should be health|pl. *The richest land for the price may be on the border of a malaria breeding swamp, but the profits of the investment may be more than balanced by the doctor's bills and loss of time, not to mention the discomfort of fevers in the household. It is important that there be an abundant water supply on all farms, both for the family and the live stock. There are social considera tions that no farmer should overlook in making a choice of a farm. He lives not to himself alone; the childx-en need the privileges of good schools, etc.; in abort, the commuuit should be one in which sympathy, goodness and intelli gence prevail. With a good farm of proper size, healthfully located, abundantly supplied with water, good neighbors, and a handy market, a man is so well situated that he ought to make himself and those around him happy. Choose well, and Void on to the choice —The Agricult urist. Pearl*. Pearls are perhaps the most valuable of all the offerings of Animate nature, and are the results of the efforts of the bivalve to protect itself from injury. A parasite bores into the shell of the pearl bearer, and when felt by the animal it immediately fortifies itself by covering up the spot with its pearly secretion; the parasite pushes on, the oyster piling up until au imperfect pearl attached to the shell is the result. The clear oval pearls are formed in a similar way, only in this case a bit of sand has become lodged in the folds of the creature, and in its efforts to protect itself from the sharp edges, the bit becomes covered, layer by layer, and assumes naturally an oval shape. This growth of the pearl, as it is incorrectly termed, can be seen by breaking open a SSOO gem, when the mac\‘ wilFbe seen in layers resembling the section of an onion. The Romans *vere particularly fond of pearls, and, according to Pliny, the wife of Caius Caligula possessed a collection valued at over $3,000,000 of our money. Julius Cresar presented a jewel to the mother of Brutus valued at $250,000, while the pearl drank by Cleopatra was estimated at $400,000. ' Tavernier, the famous traveler, sold a pearl to the Shah of Persia for $550,000. A $20,000 pearl was taken from American waters in the time of Philip IL It was pear shaped, and as large as a pigeon’s egg. Another, taken from the same locality, is now owned by a lady in Madrid who values it at $30,000. Fresh-water pearls are often of great value. The streams of St. Clair Couuty, 111., and Butherford County, Tenn., produce large quantities, but the largest one was found near Salem, N. J. It was about an inch across, and brought $2,000 in Paris. The pearls from the Tay, Doon and Isla rivers, in Scotland, are preferred by many to the Oriental, and in one summer $50,000 worth of pearls were taken from these localities by men and children. Mother-of-pearl used in the art 9 is sold by the ton, from SSO to S7OO being an average price. The last year’s pearl fisheries in Ceylon alone realized SBO,OOO, to obtain which more than 7,000,000 pearl oysters were brought up.— N. Y. Evening Post. If there shouldabe a wool famine within a year or two, there would be nothing in the fact that would surprise some of the principal authorities upon wool matters. Rat has carried off many sheep in England and on the continent, .• nd it is said that sheep are in numbers tar below the average. It may be that the American wool-grower is at last about to find his reward Tor having clung patiently to his sheep through the long period of low prices. fiflo Young and Yet Ho Unhappy.” Eddie the son of a prominent merchant in a neighboring town to Grenada, is only two months on bis way to bis sixth year. His father says Eddie Inis been m “ladies’ man” evet’ since be s twn years of age. But it. was only a few weeks ago that lie succeeded in finding his Psyche, who so ruthlessly plunged the love-poisoned dart into Ids young soul that the simple name Mildred was metamorphosed into the tender name ‘‘ sweetheart.” The villiage school cl< w:d and she broke the secret and her lover’s heart by telling him that she loved Ids brother better than she did him. When the father came home Eddie buttonholed him and sobbed out: * ‘ Papa, papa, Eldred said she won’t have me.” “Oh, son she was only joking.” “ N-n-o, sir, she wasn’t, ’cause she told me three times.” There being “no lialm in Gilead” for his lacerated heart, he decided “ to take arms against a sea of troubles” and with a curtain cord end them. Having se curely fastened the loose end of the green cord around his neck, he jumped out of the parlor window, a distance of four or live feet from the ground. For tunately the cord broke and 'eft no marks of suicide, save a blood ring around his ueck. —Memphis Avalanche. This Memphis (Tenn.) Avalanche throws out this suggestion : “ Every where in the Mississippi delta are to be found traces of the engineering skill of the mysterious race vaguely called ‘ Mound Builders.’ Artificial elevations, miles of camils and long stretches of low protecting levees are to be seen in nearly every county bordering tin the river from Cairo to New Orleans. Would not modern engineers do well to study carefully the system which these ancient people no'doubt found to be an efficient remedy for devastating floods ?” An Age of Suspicion. Truly, this is an age of suspicion. Nevertheless, Capt. F. M. Howes, of the steamer William Crane, Merchants’ & Miners’ Transportation Line between Boston and Baltimore, who suffered severely from rheumatism, caused by the exposure incident to his profession, was cured by St. Jacobs Oil. This is no suspicion. —Boston Globe. —The latest teiepnone story is that a young lady in Nashville bowed twice when introduced by telephone to a young man in a distant part of town. A Suceessfnl Firm. Messrs Dio F. Wolfe & Co., of Nos. 174 and 176 Common street, New Or leans, Louisiana, do an enormous busi ness as brokers in “Cotton Futures” and are rapidly taking the lead in that line of any house in America. While on a business trip to New Orleans we called at their office and were courte ously shown their perfect system of how they do business. We never knew how popular and widespread this investing in Cotton Futures had really become, but from their mail we judge they re ceive over forty letters with Crafts and Ltrders, and we were assured that some i,ms as high, as sixty orders with money ranging in sums from $lO up to $1,004 were received, of course the small er sums from $lO to SIOO are the most in number. Messrs. Wolfe & Co., are also the originators Southern Co operative Cotton Fund Union, a system of Combining Individual small sums and operating the whole aggregate capi tal under their careful supervision. , From one of tlyir Statements we learn : that for the last six weeks, they have realized for their share-holders 68 per cent, profit, that is, S6B for every SIOO so invested. This is growing rap idly and even old and experienced spec ulators take advantage of it, as the risk is reduced, enabling the managers to place larger margins on ileal to prevent sweeping loss, in time of rapid fluctua tions and by having an ample reserve fund at command, they can “hedge” and thus hold their purchase until the excitement subsides, and legitimate profits are again gained. They have an office in New York, as their Stock and Bond operations are also large. We wish to mention in conclusion that the Co operative is managed separately from their individual business.
