The boys in the country who drive the cows home remind me of a part of a railroad train. Which part is it? Tiie cow catcher. Sharks won’t bite a swimmer who keeps his legs in motion. If you can keep kicking longer than a shark can keep waiting, you'll be all right. “Give we your band,” said the schoolmaster sternly. “And my heart, too,” she replied meekly. Being pretty, her soft answer turned away his wrath. “Well, you’ll own she has got a pretty foot?" “Yes, I’ll grant yon ■ that, but then it never made half as much of an impression on me as the old mau’s.” An Indiana farmer who posted a notice reading, “No hunting on this farm,” was surprised to find it to read, on a second inspection, “No. 1 hunt ing on this farm.’ l All bores are not nuisances. Some of them are positive blessings, like the tunnel through St. Gothard, which will be traversed by trains at the end of next November. The old soldier who served under Blucher at Waterloo, has made liis ap pearance in lowa. We certainly heard of that man’s death sometime since, but that don’t signify. The Warren Sentinel advertises for a man who has “kollars, korsets, kam brics, kutlery, krockery, kaliker, klolhs, karpets, with sbues and sox, korn mele and mete." ’Tis now the golden throated mule, with his tail sticking out straight as a pump handle, and his breath redolent with new mown hay, humps his back and carols his cheerful ditties. In order to give weight to liis ar gument, a so-called temperance apuut er at Newburyport made the assertion, that on one street in Boston he had counted 35 rum shops within a space of 30 feet. The tramp who wendeth his way in silence, his ways shall be strewn with grass; but for him who steals the coat off a scarecrow there are shot-guns that toWfnke a coyote and sting like all tlMMder. The colored brother in a Virginia church hit the nail on the head, when he prayed at the close of the white brother’s sermon, “Lord brass de brudder to whom we has listened to so patiently.” “Why,” asked Pat, one day, “why was Balaam a first-class asthronomer?" The other man gave it up of course. “.Shure,” said Pat, “ 'twas because be had no tbrouble in findin' an ass to roid." ' Probaldy no man so fully realizes the hollowness of life and human am bition, as the man who ladles a tea spoonful of new laid horse-radish into bis mouth, under the Impression that It is ice cream. A parishioner of a Berkshire pastor, was asked what the color of the par son’s eyes was. He didn’t really know,. “for,” he said, “when lie prays his eyes are shut, and when he preaches 1 gen erally shut mine.” Mrs. Spilkius allowed her dear little youngest boy to go to Bundh>-school , for Mie first time alone. Hi# precious little cherub came home aliout two , hours later, with a bran new catechism , and a black eye. , Some queer, crooked things were 1 dug up in the treasury yard at Wash- 1 ington the other day, and they won dered whether they are petrified sig- ' natures of ex-Treasurer Spinner that fell out of the window or a lot of old 1 sola springs. “ROASTEN” YEARS. ... i Honey and Buttermilk—How they < Doubled BiUy U p. < I BT BILL ABF. 1 I took the green corn dance about 1 midnight and llie small of my back , caved in, and from then until day- | break, I never sot up, nor lay down, ; nor stood still a moment. Doubled up 1 and twisted and Jerked around with 1 excruciating pains, I cavorted all over one side of the house, for we had some Atlanta coni|>any on the other, and i my groanings were worse than a foun- 1 de red mule. It was Just awful to be hold and awfuller to experience. Spir its of turpentine, camphor, hot water, , mustard plaster, mush poultice, pare goric, Jamaica ginger were all used exterually and internally, but no re lief. I trotted around and paced and fox-trotted and hugged the bed-post and laid down and rolled over on the floor like a hundred dollar horse, and my wife, Mrs. Arp, she trotted around too, and dosed me with this thing and that thing and had the stove fired up <nd hollered for hot water forty times jbefore she got it. ' "1 told you not to work so hard in the hot sup,” said she. “Oh, Lordy,” said I. . “I asked you to change your clothes as soon as you came to the house and you didn’t.” “Oh my country,” said I. “Don’t wake up the oomjiany,” she continued. “And you would cat them roaaten ears for supper. Did ever anybody hear of a man eating roaster, ears for supper and then wash ’em with buttermilk and honey f” r “Oh, my poor back,” said I. “Do you reckon its your back— ain’t it ftirther round in front!” “Oh, no,” Mid i, “its everywhere, its lum bago, its sialikcr, its Bright’s disease, it’s Etna and Vesuvius all mixed up.

My ]>oor William, how Ido hale to see you suffer so, but you will never do as I tell you. Do please don’t wake up the company." Well, I took the chlorophorm and j went to sleep—to the happy land-A all-blessed relief, and when 1 waked I was easier, and in due time was re stored to my normal condition. HOUSEKEEPER'S HELP. SCRAPS SW EPT FROM THE TABLECLOTH OP DOMESTIC EXPERIENCE. Tar It. --Sour milk removes iron rust from white goods. Boiled Ham.—Put a ham in a boil er while the water is cold ; be carelul that it boils slowly, or rather simmers. A ham of twenty pounds takes four four hours and a half, larger and smaller in proportion. Keep the water well skimmed. A green ham wants no soaking, but an old one must i be soaked sixteen hours in a large tub jof water. OicwpAiNs Out ofWhite Cloth.— I Make a strong solution of borax ■ waler—one tablespoonful powdered ' borax to a pint of boiling water; place i the cloth on a clean board or table, I and rub the oil stains well, using a clean brush dipped into the solution ; if the spots are of long standing a very little soap may be used with the borax water, using the brush for that purpose, then rub dry with a clean soft cloth. Chicken Cheese.—Boil two chick ens in water enough to make them tender; takeout when done, remove ail the hints ; mince the meat very fine; season with salt, pepper and but ter, and return them to the water in which they weic boiled; cook until the liquid is nearly gone ; pour into a deep dish ; lay a plate over it, put on a weight, and set away in a cool place. Wnen ready to lie eaten, cut it in slices, and it will be as firm as cheese. Breakfast Rous.—.Mix half an ounce of sifted white sugar in two two pounds of the finest white flour; make a hole in the centre, and put in about two tablespoonfuls fresh yeast, mixed with a little water; let it stand all night. In the morning add the yolks of two eggs, a piece of butter about the size of a walnut, and suffi cient warm milk to make it of a right consistency; divide into rolls, (about twelve or fourteen); bake half an hour in a brick oven. Dressing Macaroni.—The follow ing is the Italian mode: Boil half pound of macaroni with two blades of mace and an onion. Put on with it a sweetbread, aud let all boil until ten der. Add a pint of tomatoes, a large lump of butter, pepper and salt, and a teaspoonful of mustard. Put into a deep dish alternate layers of macaroni and thick layers of grated cheese, till the dish is full, putting cheese on the top. Serve hot, with a small glass dish of the finest cheese grated, so that each one may add cheese if preferred. How to Preserve Pears—Pare and cut twelve pears into halves, leave the stalks on, ami co*b ; place is ■ baking jar, and add to th.-ra the rind of one lemon, cut in strips, the juice of half a lemon, six cloves, ten all spice, sufficient water just to cover the whole; to every pint of water allow a pound of loaf sugar; to be be baked in a very cool oven until done. They will take at least six hours. The more steadily they are done, the lietter. To improve the color of the fruit, a few drops of prepared cochineal may be added Bi.ackherry Wine.—Much of this valuable fruit has been gathered, but much yet remains to ripen before it can be secured. It seems, however, from the following communication to the Germantown Telegraph, by “Nel lie," of Camden, Del., that, after all, it is the ami not the fruit, from which wine is made. The lady writes: I have read all your good reifipes for blackberry wine, and have sotnetiines made some that I lhought\was very good ass wine. But when it, came to be used in cases of summen complaint, have licen sur prised ht the very little good it did, even with spices in it. Talking with a long-time druggist one day, 1 told him my poor opinion of blackberry wine as a medicine ; that I had made mine very carefully as to ripe berries, etc., and how I had been disappointed in its effect. He at once answered that the wine for medicine should not tie made of the berries at all, but'of the root; also, that some braudy aud spices should be added, and made in that way he could recommend it in the aforesaid cases. Os course the roots must lie boiled to get the strength out of them. Thought perhaps some of your readers may not have heard of this new way, as I confess I had not. I have been promised some of the roots, and think I shall try to make a little, but fear it will not be quite so well relished as a wine ; but the brandy and spices may help it along. The Minute Organisms of Water. Mr. Starr, of New York, some time ago exhibited in Hartford, Con necticut, through the compound mi croscope, a water insect, contained in a drop of water, in size I-SOB part of an inch, which the microscope re vealed as a large, hungry'fellow, car rying in front of his mouth a very complete water-wheel. This apparatus was seen to lie in motiou, like an old fashioned mill wheel turned by a dam of waler, but with this difference— that in the case of the insect’s wheel it was made to revolve by swimming through the water. The revolutions of tUv wheel, by creating a partial vacuum, drew into the creature’s Jaws certain minute, living organisms, too small oven for the comjiound micro scope to determine much about them, beyond the evident fact tliat they were eaten alive, and that this water ar rangement—itself all invisible to the naked eye—was one of the endless wonders of Nature’s provision for the support of her infinite forms of ani mal life. Another invisible inhabi tant of the water world Was devel oped by the microscope into a ture with a graceful, swairdik* neck. Another—brought up from the bottom of Narragunsett Bay, and invisible, if we remember rightly, to the unas sisted eye—was one of the Tinapetra, a creature of bright hues, and marked «n its back with as perfect an anchor as was ever forged.
