People irill Talk.
Tou may get through the world, but t’will be
very slow,
If we listen to all that is said as we go;
We’ll be worried and fretted, and kept in a
stew,
For meddlesome tongues will have something
to do,
For people will talk.
If quiet and modest, you’ll have it presumed
That your humble position is only assumed;
You’re a sheep in wolf’s clothing, or else you’re
a fool;
But don’t get excited, keep perfectly cool,
For people will talk.
If generous and noble, they’ll vent out their
spleen,
You’ll hear some loud hints that you’re selfish
and mean;
If upright and honest, and fair as the day,
They’ll call you a rogue in a sly sneaking way,
For people will talk.
Andtlien if you show the least boldness of
heart ; , *•
Or a slight Inclination tcytake your own part,
They will call you an ‘Upstart, conceited and
vain;
But keep straight ahead, don’t stop to explain,
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress, or old-fashioned your
hat,
Borne one will surely take notice of that,
And hint rather strong that you can’t pay your
way;
But don’t get excited whatever they say,
For people will talk.
If you dress in the fashion don’t think to escape
Fdr they criticise then in a different shape;
You’re ahead of your means, or your taylor’s
unpaid;
But mind your own business, there’s naught
to be made,
For people will talk.
Now, the best way to do is to do as you please,
For your mind if you have one will then be at
ease;
Os course you will meet with all sorts of abuse;
But don’t think to stop them, it aint any use,
For people wfll talk.
HOME, FARM £ND GARDEN.
Woolen Garments.—All woolen
garments hanging in closets unused
through the summer should be at
least three or four times through the
season thoroughly brushed and hung
out of doors in the sun and wind.
Sleigh-robes should be sealed up like
the smaller and choicer furs, but in
default of this protection should nev
er be allowed to remain more than
two weeks during the hot weather
without receiving a shaking and air
ing.
To Cool Horses When Hot.—
There is danger of congestion when
cold water is thrown on the body of
horses when very hot and tired; yet,
how many do it ? The better way is
to throw water freely on the fore legs
of the animal. This corresponds
with the well known custom of per
sons when over-heated, bathing the
wrists for some time before dringing
much. • .
Fresh Air for Sheep.—Sheep
require abundance of fresh air, as in
fact all stock do, but sheep especially.
Close pens are very injurious* causing
first running at thei nose and colds,
which finally result in a cough and
inflamation of the lungs. The great
est need is to keep them dry under
foot and protected from snow and
rain storms; sheep will choose to lie
out of doors in a well-littered yard
rather than under cover, and thrive
better in doing so.
Fine French Mustard.—Take a
quarter of a pound of the best, fine,
yellow mustard; pour over it enough
vinegar and water, equal parts of
each, to make a very thin paste; add
a pinch of salt, and a bit of calamus
root not larger than a pea. Set it on
the stove, and while it boils, stir in a
tablespoonful of flour. Let it boil
for twenty minutes, stirring it con
tinually. Just before it is done stir
in a small teaspoonful of honey.—
When cool, put it in bottles and cork
very tight. This is the recipe for the
real French mustard for which a very
high price is paid.
Spiced Apples.—The best way to
make spiced apples is to take eight
pounds of apples, pared, four pounds
of sugar, one quart of vinegar, one
ounce stick cinnamon, half ounce of
cloves. Boil the sugar, vinegar, and
spices together, put in the apples
when boiling and let them remain
until tender—about twenty minutes.
Take them out and put them in a jar.
Boil down the syrup until thick, and
pour it over.
Manure.—Either draw manure out
to the field as it is made, and
it, or make it into a larg<^m^B|
barnyard. ,

•This is a good time to plant cate.
The cat should be prepared with a
bootjack, revolver, or some other
utensil, and then plant under a plum
•tree. If you have not got a plum
tree, plant anywhere. Plant all you
can, and plant deep. This branch of
agriculture is too much neglected.
An Eastern man locked his wife up
in a room and sent his son to her with
a bone. The youth said: ‘ ‘Mother, _ fa
ther sent this up and says here is a
bone for you to pick.” The gentle
mother replied: “Take it back and
tell him I say he is not your father,
and that is a bone for him to pick.”

The city editor of the Jacksonville

The sorrowing relations of the highly

“Professor,” said a student in pur
suit of knowledge concerning the
habits of animals, “why does a cat,
while eating, turn her head first one

she cannot turn it both ways at once.

Out in Wisconsin a few days since a
gallant ybung man drew a pretty girl
toward him and kissed her, and just
at that moment a beam fell from the
floor above to the spot where she was
standing before. The story spread
like wildfire and the “blooming las
sies” throughout the State generally
are now continually being snatched
from imaginary dangers.
The weather out west is not yet re
garded as perfectly satisfactory. An
irate joufnalist, who is also an agri
culturist, remarks : “This is a fine
time to set out flowers and have them
frozen as stiff as an iceberg in an hour.
In planting seeds put each one in a
pill box and wrap the box up in cot

put an overcoat on each onion and
place a layer of hot bricks under the

Onq of our manufacturing tobacco
nists was out with a card, the other
day, like this: Wanted —“Girls to strip

that‘the girls can’t work with their
clothes on ?
A shrewd little fellow was en
trusted to the care of his uncle, who
fed the boy very poorly. One day he

with his uncle.”
The Norwich Bulletin tells of an
