HARD TIMES IN VERMoNT.-A letter from

country is the holding back of produce by the
farmers, who seem to think that prices must

| How TO WASH KID LovES.-Have ready q
little new milk in one saucer and a piece of brown
soap IN another, and clean cloth or towel folded
three or four times. On the cloth spread out the
glove smooth and neat. Take piece of flannel,
dip it in the milk, then rub good quantity Of
soap on the flannel, and commence to rub the
glove dewnwards, towards the fingers, holding
1T firmly with the left hand. Continue this pro-
cess until the glove, if white, looks of a dingy
yellow though clean; if colored, till it looks dark
and spoiled. Lay it to dry. Old gloves will soon
look nearly new; they WILDE soft, glossy, smooth
well-shaped and elastic

make the surface perfectly smooth; rub
thoroughly with vitirol three times a
day, or as often as you feel like it. At
night cover your head up with onions.
The next skin will be white, and have
nary freckle.

The garners Of Vermont are very busy
with theirSmaple sugar making. The season
is favorable, and the best trees give down at the
rate of three gallons day, which is the amount
required to make pound of sugar. The sap, as
1t comes from the tree, is perfectly colored. and
the sap if it can be caught and evaporated with
out bringing it in contact with vessels imparting
stains for tubs or boilers, it will make coloress
and perfectly pure sugar.
PASSES THROUGH THE Rocky MOUNTAINS.
