The methods Usually pursued in the
domestic manufacture of this article, are
to say the least of them, susceptible Of
improvement. The conversion of cider
into good vinegar, by exposure to'the afr

Wintering Stock.

As the cold season approaches, we see
the farmer prudently storing feed for his
stock during the winter and Judging
from this, we would naturally suppose
that he was fully impressed with the
idea that the mercful man should regard
the life Of the brute.
But when we see the exposed manner
in which so many farmers winter their
stock, we are almost forced to conclude
that neither the lives of the animals nor
self interest is held in Consideration.
Often not the least shelter is provided
for animals, and thus we see them ddring
the whole winter exposed to the furious
north winds drifting snow, and beating
rains. There we see them mopfng
about or standing in fence corner. shiF

But pecuniary interest, the great prin
ciple which urges men to action, ia like

A much larger portion of feed is re-
quired for animals in exposed situations,
in order to produce the extra amount of
animal heat which is required to sustain
life under such circumstances. Nor will
cattle thrive as well under such circum
stances ; and however we'll they may be
fed, they will remain in sorry plight.
and many sicken, lie down and die. and
by these means thousands of dollars are
annually lost to our community.
In the West, where the erection of
permanent shelter is often attended with
considerable cost, there should appear
at first sight pretty good apology for
this neglect. 1t often happens that the
young farmer. who has probably emigra-
ted from the East, has laid out his limi

few necessary covenlences, and therefore
cannot well incur such expenses. But

Respect for a Mothers Feelings.

George Washington, when young, was
about to go to sea as midshipman.--
Every thing was arranged. The vessel
lay opposite to his fathers house, and his
whole heart was bent on going. After
his trunk had been carried to the boat,
he went to bid his mother farewell, and
saw the tears bursting from her eyes,
He said nothing, but seeing that his moth
er would be distressed If he went, and
perhaps never be happy again, he turned
to the servant and said
go and tell them to fetch myetEunk
back. ! will not go away to break moth
er's heart"
His mother was struck with his decis
ion, and said to him
George, God has promised to bless
the children that honor their parents
and I believe he will bless you"
Remember this, children. when you
treat lightly mothers feelings or opin
ions.

Origin of the Word Quiz.

Everybody knows the meaning Of Che
word Quiz or Quizzing. But its origin is
not generally known. The word Quiz is
comprehended as soon as pronounced, in
London, New York, San Francisco, Mel,
bourne or Calcutta.
Our attention has recently been called
to this mischievous little word by an ar
ticle in an old English Magazine. Very
few words ever took such a. run, or were
saddled with so many meanings as this
monosylabe Quiz; and however strange
the word, it is still more strange that moi
one of our photographers, from Bayley
to johnson, ever attempted an eXplana.
ton Or gave derivation Of it. The rea-
son is very obvious; it is because it had
no meaning, nor is it derived from any
language in the world ever known, from
the Babylonish confusion to this day.
When Richard DAILY was patentee of the
Irish theatres, he spent the evening of a
Saturday in company with many Of the
wits and men of fashion of the day. Gam.
bling was introduced, when the manager
staked large sum that he would have
spoken all through the principal streets
of Dublin by certain hour next day.
Sunday, word having no meaning, and
being derived from no known language,
wagers were laid, and stakes deposited.
Daily repaired to the theatre, and dis
patched all the servants and sHpernaner-
aries with the word Quiz" which they
chalked on every door and shop window
in town. Shops being shut all next day,
every body going to and coming from
their different places Of worship, saw the
word and everybody repeated it, so that
"Quiz" was heard all through Dublin
The circumstances Of so strange word
being on every door and window, caused
much surprise; and ever since, should a
strange story be attempted to be passed
current, it draws forth the expression,

Early LOst--Early saved
BY DR. BETHUFE.

Within her downy cradle, there lay little child,
And group of lowering angels, unseen, upon hei
smiled;
Whea strife arose among them-a loving strife
Which should shed the richest blessing over the
newborn life.
One breathed upon her features, and the babe in
beauty grew,
With cheek like mornings bushes, as an eye OF
azure hue;
Till every one who saw her, was thankful for the
sight
Or a face SO sweet and radians with sver fresh de
light.
Another gave her accents, and voice so musical
As Springfield joyous carol, or ripping stream
let fall;
Till all who heard her laughing, on her word of
childish grace,
Another brought from Heaven pure and gentle
mind,
And Within the lovely casket tho precious gem en-
shrined;
TIL all who knew her wondered that God should DO
so good,
AS to bless with such spirit world so cold and
rude.
Thus did she grow in beauty, in melody, and truth,
ghe budding of her childhood, just budding into
youth;
And n ono dparnr moment than
before,
She became, though we thought fondly, heart could
not love her more.
Then out spoke another angel-nober, brighter than
the rest.
As with strogg arm, but tender, he caught her to
his breast,

But no shade of human sorrow shall darken DER her
face
aye have tuned to gladness only the accents of her

And,no wall of human anguish shall from her lips

Nor shall tbs soul that shneth so purely from

The Best Feed for Horses.

Horses fed on a mixture OF Indian corn
and beans, crushed or coarsely ground
have been found to thrive remarkably

have been tried in England, with decided
success, proving to be not only more
economical than other kinds of food, but
better adapted to a perfectly healthy and
sound condition of the animal in that
climate. In this country corn is quite
extensively fed, but beans very rarely

Intense Suffering from the Cold
Weather.

The Pottsville Miners Journal pub
fishes the following account of the suffer
ings of a family during the extreme cold
weather on Saturday, the 31st ult.
"On Saturday afternoon, during the
prevalence of severe storm, young
man who had been sent from St. Glare
to Hazleton, with team, for the purpose
Of removing the family of Mr.. Valentine
Frantz to the former place, found it neces
sary to unhitch his horses and leave the
wagon which contained the family, on
mountain, to 60 home and have his horses
shoes sharpened. The persons composing
the family, left in that dangerous position
were Mrs. Frantz, five small children, an
elder daughter, and her husband. After
the driver had been absent some time,
the family left the wagon, for the purpose,
if possible. of reaching their home; but
the rain falling fast, and freezing as rap
idly as it fell, impeded their progress
Mrs. Frantz sank to the ground dozen
times, in a distance of between one and
two miles, yet she chung to and protected
her babe, with the fervor which charac.
terizes a mothers love. At last Mrs.
Frantz, overcome by cold and fatigue.
could proceed no further. The young
man placed her and four of the children
on the ground, in as sheltered position
as he could find; picked up the remaining
child, boy, in his arms, and, with his
wife. proceeded home as rapidly as pos
sible.
ION reaching home he informed his
friends of the occurrence, and they start
ed in search of the unfortunate sufferers.
When discovered, Mrs. Frantz and the
children were insensible. The mother
was lying on her back, with her babe
pressed tightly to her bosom, while her
cothing was frozen to the ground. One
of the children, a little girl, while at
tempting, evidently, to crawl up the hill
had slipped; her clothing was stripped
from her person, and she was found ex.
posed and frozen to the ground. The
children were taken to place of shelter,
but Mrs. FrantZ was not removed until
wagon had been procured. The 6rst in,
quiry from her lips, when restored to
consciousness, was for her children. The
boy first taken home has died. 1t is
thought that Mrs. Frantz will recover
The babe is we'll. There is, however,
some doubt of the recovery Of the other
children. What the little family suffered
in the long hours of that Saturday after
noon and night, exposed to the peltings
OF the pitiless storm, and to the chilling
atmosphere Of winter day, on a bleak
mountain, with the nearest house miles
away, and their friends ignorant of their
condition-what that mother must have
