Mind what you say before Children.

children; and here parents, as well as Others

A gentleman was in the habit of calling at
ii neiHhbor'S house. and the lady had always
expressed to him much pleasure in seeing him.
One day, just after she had remarked to him
her happiness from his visit, the ltt.e boy
entered the room. The gentleman took him
on his knee and asked" Arc you not glad
to see Inc, Georgen No, Sir" replied the
boy. "Why not. my lt,lc man ~ he con-
tinued. "LBccause mother don't want you to

But he saw nothing. " Indeed how do YOU
know that, Georse?' - Because she said
yesterday that she wished that old bore
would not call again" The gentlcman's

WINTER FEED FOR MILCH C0ws.-What
kinds of food produce the most milk in WIN
ter seems not yet to be determined. Certain
ly, great diversity prevails in modes of feed
ing among the multtudes who keep cows,
either for their own convenience or for profit,
yet mparatively few are prepared to speak
with any degree OF certlinty as to the kind Of
keeping which answers best. One thing is
quite certain. that no kinds of food are vet
known which produce equal quantities and
qualities of milk as do the spring and sum-
mer grasses. But what comes the nearest to
it? That is the question. Pumpkins We
have long been accustomed to regard as
among the very best materials Cor fall feed.
and they are equally as valuable for winter
feed as long as they can be preserved from
frost and rot.
Next to these. buckwhcat shorts may he
named These add more to the quantity than
the qnality Of the milk, but by adding about
one pint Of Indian meal to four quarts of the
shorts you secure your quality as well as
quantity. Wheat bran or shorts may be sub
slitutcd for buckwheat where the latter is not
to be had.
Carrots, bcets, turnIps and roots of like
nature are of great value, if not in increasing
the milk, in retaining the flesh and health Of
the animal AS fodder we regard corn
stalks cut up at the bottom and well presery-
ed with the husks on, rs equal to anything
none the worse, we presume, for the OCCASION
al ears which are left on the stalks when har-
vested. In connection with these, fine hay
or rowen should be fed, say once a day. If
YOU have none but coarse hay, it is much bet
ter that it should be cut and wet. Cows fed
ns above in VAIN stables and kept clean, will
furnish as good supply of milk as in any
obtain more milk per day by feeding freely on
Indian meal, say from four to six quarts a
day, with plenty of good hay or stalks, out
in this case your cows will be short-livcd. or
their days for giving milk socn numbered.

LOOK TO Your Policies. Lord St. Leon
ards, a great English Judge. in his recent book
called " Handy Book on property Law" says:
Very few policies against fire are SO framed
as to render the company legally Liable
Generally, the property is inaccurately dcs-
cribed in reference to the conditions under
which you insure. They are framed by the
company, who. probably. are not unwilling
to have a legal defence against any claim, as
they intend to pay what they deem just
claim without taking advantage of any tech
aical objection, and to make use Of their de-
fence only against what they may believe to
be fraud, although they may not be able to
prove it. But dc not rely on the moral feel
ings OF directors. Ascertain that your house
falls strictly within the conditions"
Generally there is a whole page Of finely
printed " conditions on the back of the
policy, any one Of which, ingeniously drawn
as they are, may be the subject of law suit,
with fair prospect Of success against the
insured. These conditions are sometimes le-
sorted to i'll order 10 entirely defeat the policy
or else are used as u screw. in connection with
the necessities Of the insured, to bring about
deduction from the fair amount which
ought to be paid.

The Union to day opposes an amendment
appended to the Civil Appropriation bill, which
orders a reopening of the accounts of the States
against the Federal Government for advances
during the war of 1872, which, it is said, will
produce balances against the Federal Govern
ment variously estimated from three to five
millions of dollars. 1t invokes as paramount
authority on the subject, veto message of Gen.
Jackson, which killed the measure in 1922
when it was first proposed. The Union sug-
gests that if the measure needs be carried, the
newly ascertained balances shall be credited to
the States on the loan they received from the
