A Temperance Joke.

Joe Harris was whole souled, merry
fellow, and very fond of a glass. After
living in New Orleans for many years, he
came TO the conclusion of visiting an old
uncle, away up in Massachusetts,, whom
ne had nor seen for years. Now there is
difference between New Orleans and Mas
sachusetts, in regard to the use of ardent
sprits, and when Joe arrived there and found
all thepeople run mad about temperance,
he felt bad, thinking with the old song, that
keeping the spirits up by pouring the
spirits down." was one of the best ways
to make time pass, and began to fear,
indeed, that he was in pickle. But on
the morning after his arrival, the old man
and his sons being at work, his aunt
p came to him, and said
"Joe, you have been living in the South,
and, no doubt, are in the habing of ia
king little something to drink, about
eleven, o'clock. Now I keep some here
for medicinal purposes, but let no one
know II, as my husband wants to set the
boys a good example"
Joe promised, and thinking he would
get no more that day, took, as he ex-
pressed it, "a buster" After that he
walked out to the stable, and who shoulG
he meet but his uncle.
"Well, joe" says he, II expect You are
accustomed to drink something in New
Orleans, but you will find US all temper
ance here, and for the sake Of my sons, I
don't let them know I have any brandy
about but just keep little out here for
ny rhsrmatism. Will you accept . lit

Poultry Houses Near Horse stablea

noticed in late number Of the Rural
in an article from the Germantown Tele.
graph, that a writer recommends buildinp
hen houses behind. or adjoining horse
stables, in order that the manure nigh,
be thrown in for the fowls to scratch and
work over.
Now so far as throwing in the manure
is concerned, agree with the writer;
but il farmers or fowl fanciers wish to rid
themselves of an everlasting peast, by all
means ie: them keep their hen roost away

A Sermon that did not Suit.

Mrs. Il was a very religious wo-
man, and perhaps came as near worship
ping Mr.. ", her favorite minister
as some Of our people do Kossuth, the
Hungarian; but te that as it may, she
was continually hammering Aron, a
shrewd lad of sixteen years of age, who, to
poster the old lady, and hear her scold
would occasionally speak rather lightly
Of Mr.. u, her minister.
Happening in at the house of Mrs
Il one day, the old lady began as
usual to chastise him, and Aaron thinking
she put it on rather hard, after hearing her
through said:
"rm as good as NJ. N, and can
preach as we'll"
Preach :" said the old lady, "you don,
know one single word in the Bible"
"Well, give text" said Aaron, land
see if | can't preach"
"You don't know anything about the
Bible" said Mrs. II If YOU do
you may take any text you please.
"Well," said Aaron "A virtuous woman
is without price, that in your BIZ
blel"
"Yes," said Mrs. Il, "and it
shows that women are better than men,
for the Bible don't say that a virtuous
man is without price"
"Well, we will see about that" said
Aaron after dividing his subject into two
or three heads, commenced as follows:
"The scarcity of an article, in all cases
governs the price, but when an article
cannot be found, it cannot be had at any
price, and for that reason it is without !
price Now il there were any virtuous
women, there would be price, and high
one two by reason of the scarcity, but as
there is none,-
AT this stage of the discourse, the old
lady seized the broom
Aaron" said she, "you are an impu-
dent brat, ifyou don't clear out, l will pelt
you with the broom handle"
Aaron made tracks into the road, finish
ing his sentence. ''they are without price,"
as he went through the door, which the
old lady closed after him with considera-
BILE force.
Aaron now started for home saying to
himself as"f e went along, ~ guess the old
woman will not chastise me again very
soon,"-and as it proved, he was not mis-
taken in his prediction.- Contacook Tran
