VALUE OF AccURAoY.-It is the re-
suit Of every days experience that
steady attention to matters of detail
lies at the root of human progress, and
that diligence, above all, is the mother
Of good luck. Accuracy is also ofmuch
Importance, and an invariable mark of
good training in nan-accuracv in
observation, accuracy in speech, accura-
cy in the transaction of affairs. What
is done in business must be well done !:
for it is better to accomplish perfectly
a small amount of work than to halfdo
ten. times as much. A wise man used
to say, "Stay little, we may make an
end the sooner" Too little attention,
however, is paid to this highly impor-
tant quality of accuracy. AS a man
eminent in practical science lately oh
served, 1t is astonishing how few peo-
pie | have met in the course of my ex-
perience who can define fact accurate
ly."-Yet, in business affairs, it is the
manner even in which small matters are
transacted has that often decided men for
or against you.-With virtue, capacity
and good conduct in some respects. the
person who is habitually inaccurate in
other respects cannot be trusted: his
work has to be done over again and
he thus causes endless annoyance, vex.
alton and troubles.

To MAKE Cows GIVE MLK.-A writer
who says his COW gives all the milk that is
wanted in family of eight persons, and
from which vas made two hundred and six
ty pounds of butter the year, give the fol-
lowing as his treatment 1t is cheap and
worth trial:
If you desire to get a large yield of rich
milk, give your COW three times day, water
slightly warm, slightly sated, in which bran
has been stirred at the rate of one quart to
two gallons of water. You will find if you
have not tried this daily practice, that your
COW will give twenty-five per cent more milk
Immediately under the effect of it, and she
will become so attached to the di as to re-
fuse to drink clear water unless very thirsty,
but this mess she will drink almost any time
and ask for more. The amount OF this drink
necessary is an ordinary water pail full each
time. morning, noon and night Your ami
NAL will then do her best at discounting the
lacteal. -Four hundred pounds of butter are
often obtained from good stock, and instan-
ces are mentioned where the yield was even
at a higher figure.

We copy from Washington paper of the

The new north wing of the Congressional
Library is so far completed that Mr.. Spot
ford has already transferred books to it.
They are to be of the miscellaneous kind,
and here in this magnificent hall, with its
four galleries OF alcoves, with its broad sky
lights, aided for ventilation and light by nu-
merous side and end windows, the constant
or occasional visitor may sit without distur-
bance from persons passing through to the
balcony, for the purpose of viewing the CITY.
Mr.. Spofford is about going to Philadelphia
and other Northern cities to obtain furniture
for all the halls, that shall he of uniform
character. and suited to the purposes OF IL
brary. The coloring of the new hall is in
drab, green, and gold. and the floor is OF
marble, wickerwork fences. and gates which
will protect the alcnves on the main floor
So much superior in grandness of effect is
the east hall to the main one. by reason of
the additional gallery of alcoves, as well as
in the advantages of light, that an addition
al gallery in the latter seems a necessity.
The wing, like the north, is all of iron. ex-
cept the marble floor, and is one of the same
model in all particulars, except that the
shelves are, in many cases, arranged wide
apart for the large books OF the Smithsonian
collection, which are to be in that wing
They are some 10000 in number. Those of
the Government are 96,000-in all 1876. 900.
The entire library will contain 100000, when
filled. Those now on hand constitute the
largest and most valuable library in the
country.
