Ma1ums. Don't mash a cats tail if YOU
would save your nervous system from jar.
An ounce of precaution is worth u pound
of cure.
Never reveal the faults of man which
you have discovered ouEy through the me-
dunn of his virtues Thus beautiful

Perhaps The distortion is only to your own

Don't take good deal of trouble to do

Don't take wife out of winder when
you can carry one out of door.
These maxums we are much pleased
with, and shall continue for the bono publ

INTERESTING FACT IN On FTING.-Du
Hamel, the celebrated French pomologlst
and horticuturist, ingralted young lemon,
of the size of pea, upon the branch of an
orange tree. 1t grew there, ripened, and
had all the qualities of the lemon, without
partaklng of any Of the properties OF the or
ange. |, is evident, in this instance, that
the stale oil the lemon changed the color,
taste and smell of he juices of the orange
tree. AID from this experiment, we have
reason 10 conclude that all the different f.
cures, colors, tastes and smells which we
hnd in different plants, are formed in the
plants themselves.

Meath the cold blast of Autumn, il wthered and
