1t is not for the protection of the vine.

they will find that fall pruned vines will be
much more vigorous and productive the

winter. Its roots continue to absorb food,
though, ot course, in much less quantity
than in summer. The nutriment thus alb

All the buds are more or less benefited, but
as the buds remotcst from the roots slways
receive the principal flow of sap, they are
most benefited Now by pruning in the
fall, all this is saved in the buds and cane

principle that we always prunc in fall or

Seventeen years ago, there was falr girl,
so pure, so lovely, so refined, that she still
rises to my mind as almost akin to angels.
She was woocd, and ultimately won by a
handsome young man of considerable wealth
lie sported fine team, delighted in hunt
ing, and kept pack of hounds. He neither
played cards, drank wine, nor used tobacco
He had no occupation, no calling, no trade.
He lived on his money, the interest of which
would have supported man handsomely

ago. Seventeen years had passed away, and
with them her beauty, and her youth, her
husbands fortune and his life,.during the
latter part of which they lived in log cabin
on the banks of the Ohio, near Blennerahs-
sets Island-a whole family in one single
room, subsisling on water, fat bacon, and
corn bread. The husband had no business
capacity. lie was u gentlemen of education,
refinement, Of noble impulses; but when his
money was gone he could.gct NO employ

to do anything. For awhile he flountlcrcd
about--tirst trying one thing, then another
failure was written on them all.

the labor was great, the compensation wns
small-it was that or starvation. In his he

he over worked himself and died, leaving
his widow and six gills in utter destitution.
In seventeen years, the sweet and joyous and
beautiful! girl had become broken hearted

house full of children. Young woman, if q
