are worth following In fact we know the plan ia
good one, and probably the BEST The paper ah,ulS
be soft tissue, and the wax, such is used to seaI
bottles, should be applied hot. Handle the bupchea
only just as much as will answer tn purpose Tho
following are the directions of W. f. Spear of Swtz-
erland county, Indiana:
"Cut the punches carefully off the vines din thu
stem where cut into melted wax, then wrap with
paper or cloth. Put layer Of cotton the bottom
Of your box, then layer OF grapes, and layer of
cotton and 30 on. Set the box where the grapes
will not freeze and they will be kept good till
Spring"
The LADIES HoRsE.-Col. Harris Of TIE Ohio
Field Notes, an acknowledged authority on the sub
ec, writes follows in regard to the best kind OF
horse for lady, his management, etc.:
" The bride of q lady's horse should be single
rein curb-never snaffie to be pulled upon-re-
curing the strength Of thread only to guide and
direct the ANIMAL and drawn only when the horse 10
required to be stopped at all other times to be kept
slightly in hand, or be permitted TO lie gently on the
arebed neck Of the beautiful creature permitting him
to look abroad upon things and the road that he
is travelling; starting with bound into graceful
canter at the leaning forward OF the rider, without
the use OF the whip or other incentive"
We had supposed double bride was Preferable
that is, curb and snafle, either of which could be
used as occasion required The majority of English
! ladies use such bride.
"The PAGES Of a lady's horse should be long rather
than short that the rider may bend gracefully for
ward and not be jerked backward ct every step, in
the most vul gar manner imaginable. A lady-eques-
TRAN must never appear In hurry; it is unbecomng
and ungenteel, and -hows plebeian blood; and many
instances on record, showing that horse knows
gentleman or d lady at sight, as we'll as most or
u.s."
An English lady of rank and wealth, now ia
Egypt, writes home as follows:
81 fear you may deem me rather bosstful of my
horsemanship when l tell you that two Arab horses
which threw their cavaliers did not throw me. The
cause, however, not in my skill but in the very
remarkable prediction these intelligent animals
feel toward the weaker sex. Let the widest and
iercest Arabian be mounted by woman, and you
viii see him suddenly grow milo and gentle as a
lamb have had plenty Of opportunities to make
the experiment, and in my own stable there is
beautiful gray Arab, which nobody bat myself dare
ride. He knows me, anticipates my wishes, and
JudicIously calculates the degree OF fatigue can
bear without inconvenience. IL is curious to see
how he manages oquieken his pace without shaking
me- and the derenI sort of steps he has invented to
remedy contradictory purposes. Hoses being as
liable 20 forgetuness other Organized beings, my
Incompatible gray would allow his natural ambition
70 overcome bis gaantTy, and if another horse
threatened TO pass him, would start of with the
sDeed of whirlwind. Woe to me IL, under such
circumstance were to trust to the strength OF my
arm, the power Of the brdlel knew the gallant
charger better. leaving my hand loose, and ADAM
dCning all thoughts Of cOmpulsion, wouLs take to
persuasion-pat him on the neck, cali him by bis
name, beg him to be quist, and deserve the piece Of
sugar waiting for him at home. Never nd these
gentle meas fail Instantly would he slaeken his
pace prick mp his as il fully compreheading his
error, and come back TO soft amble, gently neigh
ing US if to crave pardon for his momenary Odense.'
VEGETABLE GLUE.-Gommon animal glue likely
soon TO be superseded by paste made Of gluten. Ii
looks Ike glue, and is quite strong. Gluten,
whichisto be had at ell stareh-manuiactories, will
dissolve in twice its weight Of cold water, and may
be used in cold state. A pound Of this vegetable
glue will yield three pounds when dissolved, whereas
pound Of animal glue does not yield more than two.

APRFrTr Coop SroRI.-A toleTebly good story
il told us of couple OF raftsmen, based upon an oc-
cuYrence during the late big flood and storm, in
which so many RATS Were swamped, and 20 many
steamboats, lost their sky-riggiDg raft was cangbt
in dangerous place just as the squall came In an
instant the raft pitching and wTithing as If sud-
denly dropped into Charybdis, while the waves
broke over It with tremendous uproar; and expecting
instant destruction, the raftsman dropped on his
knees and commenced praying with a vim equal to
the emergency. Happening to open his eyes an in-
