WINrER1NG CALVES. should have
loose stables. or stalls, to run in during the
winter, with a little yard or paddock for ex-
ercise out of doors in fair weather, and plen-
ty of air always. Good soft hay, few oats,
say pint day for each. or an equal guam
tlty OF corn, oats or barley meal, and in
mild weather a quart of sliced roots is their
best food. In very cold weather, roots do
calves-such is our experience-mor hurt
scour them. In mild weather, roots supply
the place of green food, and we consider
them good for that only, in our Northern
climate
Ifcalves get lousy, rub a little soft grease,
mixed with sprinkling of Scotch snuff, on
the affected parts, thoroughly to the skin,
and the lice will leave at once. If you
have not the snuff, grease alone will do =
This is effectual, and the only remedy we
have applied for years. Tobacco water we
do not like. It often sickens the calves,
and is not so certain cure as the grease.
Keep the calves warm, dry and clean, and
they will come out in the spring as bright
as larks. f,.l..

THE STORY OF DEATH.

Reader, have you ever been dead? /
have BEEN [ will tell you the story of
Death. DR.. Benaiah W. Somes, of Essex
county, New Jersey, was my physician. l
shall not curse him now. Time has taught
me that it is better to bless than to curse.
And feel, bitter as my madison might be,
that more miserable condition were not
possible to him than the consciousness of his
murderous wantonness must bring upon
himself, hardened as [ fear his nature IS
But let that pass.
I will tell you the story of my death.
/ died at the age of twenty-three. A
stalwart man, who on my fathers farm now
ed my swath. or hocd my row with the best,
in an unfortunate hour became the victim
of the practice of medicine which then pre-
vailed, but which now, happily, is nearly
disused [ had some sort of fever. No
doubt I was i'll enough. From my right
arm one day the physician took ounces of
blood-how many knew not; certainly, in
liquid measures, gallon of the red fluid
flowed. I did not mend that day; at least,
[ supposed did not for on the next day he
cut nv left arm and took thence like mea-
sure-the crimson measure of half a life
I was a dead man then. But a shudder or
two always must come before the conscious
soul let's go its hold upon the frame. With
me the shudders were in the shape of cold
sweats. There were three Of them. by
the clock-so some one at my bedside Whls'
pered-the chill and sweat lasted SIX hours,
Six dim, dark centuries they were to me
The third-its commencement, its fierce
chill, its dead cold, compared with which
ice were pleasing warmth Its dread slow
march, remember, but nothing more: Ii
the midst of it, I lost all sense Of life anc
its pains. The great gates of the valley o
death rolled on their ponderous hinges anc
shut me in.
[ do not recollect the circumstances o
funeral and interment. In fact, [ do no
deem that was buried. The weight [ fel
above me knew was no mere ten feet o
earth, in quiet nook, with daisies spring
ing from it. The mountains we're resting
on me- I realized their weight. Straigh
up to the ligLt-if light existcd-as undc

HOW TO TELL THE AGE OF LADIES

HON III lELL LIE AOL OE iAD1EAr.
OF course, all our readers are aware that
to ask lady her age, is equivalent to a di-
rect declaration of war. We have always
looked upon it as such still we have feltan
irresistible desire to know the ages of some
young ladies, but bless their dear souls, we
would not ask them for the world We
have at length come across method by
which the sweet ones may be made to di-
vulge the great secret, without knowing
what they are about; and thus young gen
tlemen can at once learn whether they are
paying their devoirs to seventeen or thirty.
The following table will do it. Just hand
this table to a lady and requst her to tell
you in which column her age is contained.
Add together the figures at the top Of the
columns in which the age is found, and you
have the great secret. Thus suppose her
age to be seventeen You will find the
number seventeen only in two columns, viz:
the first and fifth, and the first figures at
the head of these columns make seventeen.

To PREVENT A HORSE FROM BREAKING
HIS BR1DLE.-A subscriber from Mississir-
pi writes in P. S. as follows. The infor-
nation is worth, to any man having a bri-
die breaking horse, the price Of the Farmer.
and Planter at least one year:
"P. S.-Have you horse that breaks
his bride? Go to the store, buy large
fddle-string, tie one end Of it to his bit,
pass the other up under the head-stal1 and
tie to the side of the bit. Tie the string
from half to three quarters of an inch short
er than the head-stall, take loose the mar
tingale and hitch him with the reins strong
ones-and let him pull. Thus you can see
all the strain will be upon the cat-gut, and
that cutting down ON his naked head soon
brings him to terms. have never yet seen
one make the third attempt under this treat
ment, rarely the second. Try t."-Farna-
er and Planter.

TAKEN AT HIS WoRD.-A French sayan,
of excellent heart, but somewhat eccentric,
lately discharged servant. Another pre-
sented himself, and when matters were near
ly settled, the gentleman said:
"Listen my good fellow: I am not unfair,
but hate to waste words You must un-
derstand me at a hint. For example, when
I say-sGive 4aa na y raznrs, ta shave me-
you must bring me at the same time warm
water, soap, a napkin, in fact, all the acces-
sories of the toilet. And so with every
thing" ;..:.,.a., :
For some time all went on to a marvel,
and our friend congratulated himself on
having SO excellent servant. One day
he felt indisposed, and told his man to go
for the doctor, who lived few steps off,
One hour, two hours, passed away, Nc
physician, no servant. Finally, at the end
of three hours, back came the servant.
"Well, sir what made you so long time
going for the doctor, who lives so close at
hand" :"
s'Ma fol, Monsieur, remember that when
he gives me an order must guess all that
he will be likely to need. Thus I started
for the doctor then the surgeon; in case
there should be any operation to perform
the watchers, in case they should be needed
to pass the night; the notary, in case mon
sieur should wish to make his testament
and the undertaken in case he should kicl
the bucket" ~ - u -. b.

YOUNG AMERICA. The other evening
little boy, not over four years Of age, while
going down Broadway, was stopped by a
crowd of men, seated in front Of the COM
pany, who had made several attempts at
wit, one said to the boy :. .:
Say, sonny, does your nanny know
you're out p
: The little fellow very coolly replied: :,
- ttsYes, sir; my ma gave me three cents
to buy monkey-are you for sale p and
passed on, leaving the crowd convulsed with
laughter.

"He hath made everything beautiful in

The weight of earthly care;
They bring before my eager view

All wet with sparkling morning dew,
Their petals to inclose.
The weary sufferer of pain
The bowed with care or grief
Hail her returning once again,
With hope of sweet relief.
Spring hours cannot fail to bring
Calm and consoling thought;
Her many voices ever sing
Of joy tomortals brought.
But how, O, Autumn, shall l dare
To paint thy gorgeous hues-
The softness Of thy morning air,
Thine evenings pearly dews-
The solemn grandeur of thy night,
Whose starry crown is set
With gems more radiantly bright
Than earthly coronet?
The glory of thy sunset hour,
When all is calm and still,
Brings full conviction of the Power
That heaven and earth doth fill.
Oh who can gaze upon the skies,
AS twilight shades them DER,
And not from earthly dreamings rise,
Their maker to adore?
The wreath of fading Summer flowers
Is yet upon thy brow;
But all the mirth of summer hours
Is changed to sadness now.
And yet upon thy dying head
A solemn beauty lies,
More glorious than the riches spread :.
Meath Summers. glowing skies.

Though thy delights not long may last,
Yet ours shall still increase;
Thy reign be soon forever past,
But ours shall never cease.

And bliss without alloy
For glories hid from mortal sight,

For fadeless crowns Of heavenly light,
And perfectness Of love.

looked up into it and whispered: he half
understood her before the words came thro'
her sisters lips, as she told him the story Of
Calvary and Christ, and the cloud that re-
ceived the King and Saviour returning to
his throne.
It were in vain to say he understood all
this. He only knew that she was telling
him Of her hope ere long to be above him,
above the world, above sky; and his active
but bewildered mind inwrought all this with
his ancient traditions; and having long ago
rejected the creed that did not teach him she
was immortal, he fell back on the idea that
| the immortals had somewhat to do with the
stars as he lay down on the ground close
| by the side of the tent, listening to every
sound from within, he fixed his eyes on the
zenith, and watched the passing of the
hosts Of the night until she died. There
was arustling Of garments, voice of mex
pressible sweetness suddenly sighed low,
soft sigh, the expiration of a saint; and at
that instant, far in the depths of the meri-
dian blue, clear star flashed on his eye for
the first time its silver radiance, and he be-
lieved that she was there.
For three score years after that, there
was on the desert, near the group of palm
trees, and the lonely spring, small turret
built of stones, brought a long distance,
stone by stone, on camels. And in this
hut, or in it's summit, lived good, wise
man, beloved of all the tribes, and especial
| ly followed by his own Immediate tribe, who,
with him rejected Mohammed, and worship
ped an unknown God, through the medium
of the stars and especially one star, which
he had taught them to reverence above all
others.
And at length there came night when
the wind was abroad on the desert, and the
voice Of the desert was fierce and terrible.
But high over all the sand hills, and over
the whirling storms of sand, sedate, calm,
majestic, the immutable stars were look
ing down on the plain. and the old man
ION his tower beheld them, and went forth
on the wind to search their infinite distances;
tssIc udditi1n ano5l7el
star flashed out Of heaven. beside the star
that the Arabs worshipped, and the Shiek
Houssein was young again in the heaven of
his beloved. t
Let us leave him to the mercy of his ira
dition, nor seek to know whether he reach
ed that blessed abode.
