DEcElT.-Persons who practice deceit and ar
ti6ce always deceive themselves more than they
deceive others. They may feel great complacency
in view of the success of their doings, but they
are in reality casting mist before their own
eyes. Such persons not only make a false esti-
mate Of their own character, but they estimate
falsely the opinions and conduct of others. No
person is obliged to tell all he thinks, but both
duty and self-interest forbid him to make false
pretenses?

Hints for the Season.

1st. Do not wait till winter, or til
the mud becomes deep, before com.
pleting your supply Of wood for all
fires till next spring. If you find it
necessary to cut green wood, to be
used in stoves, cut and split it very
fine now, and pile it up at once under
cover. In a few weeks, it will be We
ry good fuel. Some experienced men
think it makes better fuel than cord
wood seasoned in the open air.
Cd. As the vegetables are removed
from your garden, do not forget to
spade or plow the whole very deep !;
and if the soil is clay, open drenches
so that the water lnay not stand on
the garden or near it.
I'd. Complete the digging ofpota-
toes, and all other roots which will
not bear the frost, and place them
where they will be dry, and neither
very warm nor very cold.
4th. Put all your tools, and vehi
cles under cover at once. Ifyou will
look about you, You may be surprised
to find how many valuable things are
lying out in the weather. They have
lain there SO long that you have be.
come accustomed to the sight Of them
9th. Do not omit to scour the rust
from all tools, and rub the metal with
some clean grease. This will prevent
their becoming covered with thick rust,
which is not only troublesome, but
corrodes and Injuries the metal. The
habit of cleaning every tool and put
ting it under cover every time you
finish using it, will save a great deal
of annoyance.
9th. Apple-troes, blackberry shrubs,
raspberries, currants and several 9TH
er of the valuable kinds of shrubs
may be set out in the fall with safety.
This will save time in the spring,
when other important work may re-
quire attention. .-Ohio Farmer.
