RELATIVE TO FARM AND GARDEN. The Song of the Plough Round the rough hill, lad, Over ridge and rut, Keen, lad, and clean, lad. Let the bright share cut, With a strong team, and st To work soon and late, And firm hands, and ready, To keep the furrow straight. Up with weed and thorn, lad; Kill them from the root; Foes, lad, are these, lad, That cnoke the struggling shoot. That were rare matter For folk’s jeers and scorns Should the sower scatter His seed among thorns. Break the hard crust, lad— Sun and rain and dew Must glow, lad, and flow, lad Must shine and filter through. Not a new shoot, lad. That feels the hard earth Will e’er strike a root, lad, But die in its birth. Hearts want the plough, lad; Every fault’s a weed To turn up and burn up Ere we sow the seed; Down to deep places Score with God’s might. Sow in prayer the graces. And they shall thrive right. —Little Folks. wPlanting Kiallow Uullivation. ’MF*A*M n * neteeu y ears > sa >' 3 r - 8.

For Nasal Catarrh. Take four or five tablespoonfuls warm salt water, add two drops tincture blood root and snuff up the nostrils, holding it there a few minutes, then snuff it up hard to clean out the nostrils. Try this every morning. In using any liniment for rheumatism, neuralgia or any aches, swellings, etc., wet a cloth with it and bind on or press i on it with the hands till it heats up well, or heat it well by the fire. For a dry, hacking cough, two or three times a day take a little pinch of salt, let it dissolve slowly on the tongue and then swallow. Another: Take five cents worth each pulverized licorice, pulverized licorice extract and ground flaxseed; mix to gether, put a little in a cup, add strained honey to sweeten well, steep in hot water till licorice is dissolved. Take a good dose of it as often as the cough is trouble some. It is a sure/ safe, speedy relief. Try it once.—J. W. Foote. Seventeen Health Hints. 1. Be regular in your habits. 2.

Germany’s Fighting Strength. Military service is compulsory upon all Germans. The term of liability begins at the age of twenty, and lasts for twelve years, at the expiration of which the sol dier passes into the Landsturm, and re mains still available, in exceptionable circumstances, up to the age of forty-two. He spends only his first three years with the colors. The next four ho spends in the reserve; and for yet another five years he belongs to the Laudwehr. This svstem provides the empire with a peace effective of about 445,000 men and offi cers. The army is organised into army corps, of which there are normally seven teen. There is, in audition, the Corps of the Guard, having its headquarters in Berlin; and there are also twenty bat talions of Rifles and several independent cavalry divisions, which, in time of war, ; would be attached to the various “ar mies,” each consisting of two or more corps. Every army corps is divided into two divisions, each of two infantry brigades, each of two regiments, each of three battalions ; and to every division are attached a regiment of cavalry, four mounted lotteries of artillery, one or two i companies of engineers, a pontoon train, and auimunition and provision columns j The ordinary strength of an army corps is: i infantry 25,456 men, with 1,172 horses; cavalry, 1,594 men,with 1,760 horses; ar tillery, 1,300 men, with 1,200 horses and 48 guns; engineers (if four companies), 860 men, with 70 horses; train, etc., say 600 men, with 600 horses; total, 29,970 men, with 4,808 horses ami 48 guns. The total war strength of the army corps is 37,189 men, with 10,617 horses, 96 guns, and 1,581 carriages. The seventeen mo bilized army corps would therefore in : elude 632,123 men, with 180,489 hotses, 1,632 guns, and 26,027 carriages. The va irious unattached troops would bring the effective men and officers up to 828,980, I .ha iCO.’. 70 horse-, 2,846 guns, and 32,- 016 carriages. These figures represent the total of the first line of the active artny in war time. The reserve field troojps would number in addition 436,766 me«, with 95,850 horses, 1,002 guns and 18)- 695 carriages, making with the first line ‘ an active total of 1,265,476 Men, with 865,328 horses, 3,848, guns, yud 45,711 - ' carriages.

Ladies of Sumatra. The wealth of a Lampong lady is esti mated by the number and weight of her ornaments; these, however, are only fully displayed on feast days and other high occasions; such is etiquette among ‘ ‘the upper ten” in the southeastern part of Su matra. Native goldsmiths make these ornaments, and the purchaser gives in ex change weight for weight, in silver or gold, as the case may be. Young girls and children are heavily encumbered with them; indeed, every young miss is ar rayed in sinkels or bracelets, of many shapes, of silver; the greater the wealth and higher the position of the parent, the larger the number of glittering bandsand tinkling ornaments of every sort; rows upon rows of bracelets on her arms, and large button-like rings in her cars, and all these ornaments are worn until she mar ries. Chinese Maids in Silken Trousers. One oriental damsel who was airing herself and her finery simultaneously yes terday afternoon on Dupont street wore a pale-blue silk coat with huge flannel-like sleeves trimmed with black and pale yel low silk braid. Her trousers were of black silk, also bordered with pale yel low ; her boat-like sabots were embroid ered with blue silk, and the deep white soles provide an area about three square inches for the maid to stand erect upon. Another celestial maiden was similarly dressed, except that that garment which, among Christians, is peculiar to males, was a gorgeous orange silk. A third girl wore an azure-blue skirt, a crimson coat, and bright green trousers. Still another wore a pale violet cloak over a dark-blue blouse, her trousers also being green. A very brilliant costume was a crimson silk coat with a broad band of green and red embroidery running all around the skirts, neck and sleeves; the trousera were bright blue and the shoes broidered in pink and gold. A ! cloak, violet trousers with f mings, pcarlJrvwrm head-dress, ly worked silver bangles on wristsanu J feet formed the principal features of the , costume of a small Mongol maiden, who held in her hand the diminutive cue of her small brother who trotted before her.

Fashion Notes. The tailor-made costume continues to be the correct style for street dress. Pointed finger-nails and pointed bangs represent fashions that are going out of I vogue. French jackets in varions styles are seen as a part of many Spring toilets. A favor ite shape. Among the favorite colors for dressy toilets are golden brown, pale prim rose yellow, copper color and Persian lilac. Outside jackets for Spring wear are i longer than those worn last fall, and a hood of the material of the garment, ' lined with striped satin, is added. Bonnets of black lace and black beaded I Spanish net over foundations of primrose, 1 lavendar, pink, sea green or cherry satin, are worn by fashionable ladies at the present time. The newest plain English jackets arc [ cut considerably longer than last spring, and are perfect fitting at the back and ! under the arms, with loose fronts fitted j by a single dart. Camel’s hair, albatross, serge and nuu’s j cloth are among the white wool goods I intended for spring and summer wear. ; Heavy watered ribbon, an inch and a quarter wide, will be used as a garniture | upon these dresses, being placed in rows upon the overskirt, both front and back. Smooth taffetas and beiges are shown ! among the new wool stuffs. These are i always popular, on account of their light weight, and may •«* had plain or barred in lines of contrasting color, or crossed i with knotted threads of the same shade, or striped with double or twisted threads, giving a rough surface. Foremost among the new skirt dra- | peries are the bell skirts and the inverted nell skirts, two directly opposing styles One shows the skirt draped at the back ! with an appearance of fullness at the bot- ■ tom, and is intended fur stout ladies, the m other, intended for slender women, hav- I \ing the fulness immediately lielow’ the j Xaist.

Jbsiah Miller, a Quaker merchant and shipowner, was one of the rich men of New York in his day, lie and Broker Leavitt were two old fellows always try ing to get ahead of each other, and al ways on the watch for opportunities to cross swords. Hearing one day that th ere was sonlethiug of a run on Leavitt’s Exchange Bank, Miller thought it would be a good time to draw a big check and bother Leavitt. Walking into the bank, he coolly wrote a check for all the money he had on deposit, amounting to several hundred thousand dollars. The cashier was dumbfounded, but took the check Leavitt and asked what he should do about it. “Pay it, of course,” said the Presi dent. ‘jWhat with? It will take all our money.” “Have those kegs of small coins rolled up from the vault,” said Mr. Lea vitt. The kegs were rolled up, each with the amount it contained marked on the head. Miller asked to have the heads knocked out so that he could ’see what was inside, and it was done. Walking from keg to keg, he took a handful of coin out of each without counting the pieces and dropped the money into the capacious pockets of his long coat. Then he said: “Well, I guess that’s all I want to-day. I’ll deposit the rest,” and walked out. How long it took the clerks to count what remained in the kegs, Mr. Leavitt never told. Big and Little Butchers. Amour & Co., the packers, recently sent a carload of dressed beef to Akron, Ohio. For some reason, either because the boycott on Armour was enforced by the local labor organizations or through the hostility on the part of local butchers very little of it could be sold and the balance was returned here. The Armours at once decided to strike, back and authorized their Cleveland agent to open five or six retail meat shops in Akron and to sell their goods at lower rates than those of the resident dealers. Convers, their representative, said: “We try to do a wholesale trade and generally succeed, but if anv retailers think they can freeze us out of a town they are mistaken. We will sell meal one way or another’, and w T e will make it very warm for the Akron butchers.” — • —* • —• —— Superior Culture.

The ner vous anti bilious symptoms consequent upon chronic indi rest ion disappear,as the complaint gradually yields to tho corrective and invigo rating influence of the Bitters. Appetite re turns, sleep becomes more refreshing, anef as a sequence, the Cody is efficiently nourished, muscular power increases, and the mind grows sanguine. Use the Bitters for chills and fever, and rheumatism. * The young lawyer ought to do a fee-nomi nal business. In General Debility, iEmaclatlon, Con sumption, and Wasting in Children, Soott’s Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with Hypophosphites, is a most valuable food and medicine.
