A HANDSOME Soul.


One day last winter, a little boy from the
South, who was on visit to the city, was
taking his first lesson in the art Of sliding
down hill" when he suddenly found his feet
in rather too close contact with lady's rich
silk dress Surprised, mortified and confus-
ed, he sprang from his sled, and cap in hand.
commenced an earnest apology:
{" beg your pardon, ma'am ! am very
sorry"
"Never mind" exclaimed the lady, there
is no harm done, and you feel worse about it
than / do"
But. dear madam" said the boy, as his
eyes filled with tears, "your dress is ruined.
thought you would be very angry with me,
for being careless"
"No, mo-" replied the lady, " better have
a soiled dress than rufiled temper"
80, isn't she beauty 7" exclaimed the
lad, as the lady passed on.
who? That lady 7" returned his com
rade. Il" II you call her beauty, you shan''
choose for me- Why she is more than thirty
years old, and her face is yellow and win
killed."
81 don't care If her face is wrinkled," re-
Piled the little hero her soul Is handson
dnyhotD."
A shout Of laughter followed, from which
! the little fellow was obliged to escape. Re
latins the incident to bis mother, he remarked
30, mother, that lady did me good.
shall never forget and when | am tempted
to indulge my angry passions, | will think o
what she said. Better have a soiled dres
than ruffled temper. '"--Fiiend of Virtue.

CLAssIFlCATION OF Sd is.


Soils are named from the amount or pro-
portions Of the various substances which en-
ter into their formation.
II soil consists Of sand, it is called san
dy soil
II the larges' portion is clay. it is called
clayey soil
When lime prcdominates, it is called cal
careous soil.
Those substances may exist together, but
in different proportions, in the same soil. in
which case it usually receives a disdinct name.
mixture Of sand and clay, with small
proportion of lime, is called q loan.
If il is composed Of clay, with much lime,
it is called a oalcareous clay.
A certain proportion of these substances
has given specific names to soils.
Pure clay, which is commonly called pipe
clay is composed of about sixty parts silica
and forty parts of slumina, with a small
quantity of oxide of Iron. This kind of clay
contains no silicious sand which can be sepa-
rated by washing With water. 1t forms but a
small quantity of soil, and is found in COM
pAratively few localities.
The clay forms the strongest Of clay soils.
1t consists Of pure clay, mixed with from five
to fifteen per cent. of a silicious sand, which
can be separated from it by boiling or wash
ing.
Clay loan contains from fifteen TO thirty
per cent. Of fine sand which can be separated
by boiling. The different parts Of the sol
may be very easily separated. and it is conse'
quently more easily worked Such soil is We
~ properly sought for in the selection Of .
farm.
A loamy soil contains from thirty to sixty
per cent. Of sand, which is retained so loose
ly that it can be readily separated from it b!
washing.
A sandy loan leaves from sixty to ninety
per cent. Of sand.
j A sandy soil consists mostly Of sand, anC
contains no more than ten per cent Of clay.
In marty soil the proportion of lime mus
, be more than five per cent, but less thai
twenty per cent.
Mars are called sandy, loamy and clayey
in accordance with the proportions they ma
contain Of these substances, provided they b
free from lime, or do not contain more tba
five per cent of this material.
Soils are denominated calcareous whe
a the proportion Of lime exceeds twenty pc
cent. and thus by its quantity becomes an i'm
portsnt constituent.
h They are calcareous sands, which take thei
o names from the proportion of clay and san
e which they may contain.
