The influence OF Newspapers.

Occasionally an individual says tn US "time,
are SO hard with me, must stop my paper,
or as in some instances, "my wife thinks we
can dispense with the paper row, and | must
stop" Thus it is, stop the paper the first
thing as useless expense, without thinking ol
the actual waste of money for many things
drank, eat, smoked or cnewed, which can du
the system no good, put rather harm.
The newspaper can, or should, be regarded
as benefit to every household; it imparts use
fulinformation itfurnishessubjectsfo for thought
ant conversation !; it adds charm for social
intercourse it makes agreeable members OF
society To be without a newspaper one
might as well be out Of the world he becomes
perfect nobody; when he goes into society
and hears others talk about current events and
discusses questions of local or general interest.
he can take no part in these things because ne
is not posted up, not having real the papers.
And in the family circle what an influence
the paper has--the children read it and gain
knowledge; it serves to occupy their leisure
hours, to keep them from frivolous amuse-
ments, and gives an attraction for home.-
Surely, then, no wise parent would consent to
60 without newspaper in his family-and
local home newspaper too. lie may think he
can get along without it, because he is out In
the world, and can have the reading ofthe pa
per from his neighbors shop or store,or he can
learn what is going on from others. But this
is rather mean way. Men ought to be inde-
pendent. They ought to read for themselves.
If, however, they think they do not need
the paper themselves, they may rest assured
their families do Considerations like these
should have their weight, and should induce
those who have thoughts of stopping their
newspapers not to do SO, for those who have
not taken paper to subscribe at once for one.

The Empty Cradle.

There is a whole volume OF poetry IN the iol-
lowing little sketch, which we lind IN the last
number of Miss BARRIERS Weekly:
We met John on the stairs. He was carry
ing an old cradle to be slowed away among
what lie termed "plunder' inthc lumber-room.
One rocker was gone, and the wicker work OF
the sides broken it was an old wllIowy affair,
but we could not refrain from casting SAD
look into its empty depths. -,
"Gonew we said dreamingly, " all gone
What golden heads were once pillowed here,
heads on which the curls grew moist in slum-
ber and the checks and lips flushed to the hue
of rose leaves. When sleep broke, the silkcn
fringed lips opened heavily from the siumber-
Gus eyes; smiles fitted like sunbeams over the
face; the white fist was thrust into the mouth,
and when mamma lifted the muslin and peeped
to see if baby was sleeping, cooling and GROWING
were heard The little feet began to kick, out
of pure delight. and kicked on until both OF the
tiny red shoes were landed at the foot of the
cradle. Where are those hands now some
that were embrowned by vigorous manhood are
sleeping on battle-felds; some are pleached
with time and cares and the feet have grown
sore and weary on the rough paths OF llie- :,
Perhaps some little one, once tenderly rocked
here, is sleeping in the coffin. Over 1t grows
heartsease. and vigorous box, and white candy
tuft. and the starry iesSamine. The blue bird
flutters its bright wings through the willow
bough: and the cool summer wind whispers
10 the green leaves and grass blades ON the
grave. What of Perhaps of its immortality.

Women.

Theodore Parker, in one of his sermons, ut
tered the following remarks touching women: !:
There are three classes of women.
First, domestic drudges who are wholly taken
up in the material details Of their housekeep-
ing and childkeeping. Their housekeeping is
a trade, and no more and after they have done
that, there is no more they can do. In New
England it is small class, getting less every
year. .., -.
Next, there are domestic dolls, wholly taken
up with the vain show that delights the eye
and ear They are ornaments TO the estate
Similar toys, | suppose, will one day be more
cheaply manufactured at Paris, Nurcmburg, at
Frankfort on the Main, and other toy shops in
Europe, out of wax, papier mache, aid sold at
Boston at the habcrdasher's by the Dozen
These ask nothing beyond their functions as
dolls, and hate all attempts to elevate woman
kind
But there are domestic women, who order a
house. and are not mere drudges, adoIn it and
are not mere dolls, but women. Some Of these
"a great many of them--conjoin the useful OF
the drudge and the beautiful of the doll, into
one womanhood, and have great deal left be-
sides. They are wholly taken up with their
functions as housekeeper, wife and mother.

FARMER's REPOSITORY.
How to Make Good Butter.

Leo, of Raymond, N. H., writes to the Ra-
raj Neic Yorker: 1T is well known fact
that good location and cleanliness are among
the most essential points in making good but
ter. Every dairy should be so located that it
may be cool and shady, with good draft Of air
circulating through it. A large dairy, and
well filled, ought to be the motto ofeyery farm
house AS soon as the milk is brought in; It
should be scalded, as we get more cream and
better by SO doing. Butter comes better and
10 not 40 liable to be soft and stickey. As
soon us taken from the churn II shonld he
thoroughly worked, left until morning and wor-
kcd again Next salt in the following way:
Take two quarts Of good salt, one ounce Of SUI
gar, one ounce of saltpetre Use one ounce OF
this composition for one pound Of butter. 1t
should he stamped and left to cool before put
ting in jars. Butter prepared in this way
should not be used for two or three weeks
You will find that your butter will be very fine,
as it will have no brittle or salty look or taste
BY following this course your butter will
keep the year through, in warm as well as cold
weather

Hoisted by His Own Petard.

At Winona, Minnesota, few days ago. a
man named Charles Russell became suspected
of incendiarism, and was closely watched
Finally he was seen to enter building in which
is kept an omnibus belonging to the Burrldge
House. He had q can of kerosene, with which
he saturated the cushions and every part of the
omnibus, and set fire to it, Just as he was a
bout to step out of the omnibus he was caught,
the bus was dragged from the building so as
not to set fire to that, and the incendiary was
kept in the burning vehicle till he was nearly
burned alive. His clothes were burned from
his body his hair from his head, and his whis-
kcrs from his face, the intention being to make
him confess to other crimes, and to declare his
accomplccs This he would not do, denying
any other crimes, or having any accompllces
He said, however, that Mr.. Burridge hired hlm
to burn the omnibus, because it was insured for
more than il was worth, and he wanted to Sc
cure the insurance. Russell was then lodged
in jail

Do you tell your Mothcr1 Z

A party of schoolgirls were whispering to-
gether in one corner of the school-room and as
another of their number came in, they cxclaim-
ed, 40 %

to tell you; but you must promise not to tell it
to anybody for the world.

she must be than those who hide things from

1t is great thing to be able to say that and

Rely Upon Ourselves.

The Richmond Examiner says that having
trusted others and been deceived-having hoped
for aid from others and been disappcinted-let
MS henceforward rely upon ourselves. Let us
cease to expect great things from the magma
nimity, and sense of justice, the attachment 10
the constitutions of the North.
Doubtless we have many friends and we'll
wishers in that section, and whenever and
wherever we meet honest aud loyal friendship
we should recognize and appreciate it. But we
must not count too much upon its ability to
help us, Let us concentrate our energies upon
our own resources; labor steadily to promote
our own material interests, and be guided by
our own sense of duty and right. Doing this
we may be oppressed, but we shall never be
degraded. Our patience may be tried, but our
manhood will be unimpaired,"

A perfect Antidote FOR all Poisons.

A plain farmer says: " Itisnow over twen-
ty years since / learned that sweet oil would
cure the bite Of arattlesnake, not knowing that
it would cure other kinds Of poison. Practice,
observation and experience have taught me that
il will cure poison Of any kind, both on man
and beast. / think no farmer should be with
out q bottle Of it in his house. The patient
must take spoonful Of it internally, and bathe
the wound for cure. To cure a horse it re-
quires eight times as much asit docs fort man.
Here let me say Of one Of the most extreme
cases Of snake bites in this ncighborhood =
Eleven years ago this summer, where the case
had been thirty days standing, and the patient
had been given up by his pbysicians, heard
of it, carried the oil, and gave him one spoonful,
which effected q cure. 1t is an antidote for
arsenic and strychninc It will cure boat in
cattle by eating too freely Of fresh clover; it
will cure the sting Of bees, spiders or other in
sects; and will cure persons who have been poi
soned by low running vine growing In the
meadows, called ivy. sni

MI@CEIEANY.
American Aristocrecy.

The last number of the New York Directory
allndes to the pride of the New Yorker, who
wishes TO trace his descent from the 4" Knlcker-
bockers," and points to the fact that in the old
New York Directory not one knickcrbocker
seems to have been prominent enough to be re-
corded In the Directory for 1896 the name
of Stuyvesant first appears-one of the most
honored names in New York and cherished with
arstocratic pride But he is registered as
"Peter Stuyvesant, shoemaker" Two years
later there are two, " Peter Stuyvesant, shoe
warehouse" and Peter Stuyvesant, Jr., at
tornev." the record of the Directory afording
thus striking illustration of the manner of the
growth of position in the United States. The
father is shoemaker who accumulated means
and become the owner of a store or warehouse,
his children are educated and the next genera
ton hold forth the more ambitious titles OF
merchants, attorneys and doctors. In the Di-
rectory of 1896 appear the name OF two Astors,
one fur merchant, and the vtiIOr a "b''toir-
err Since that day the name of one has be-
come the SYNONYM for wealth and has COM
manded the alteration Of all the vulgar crowds
who worship the aristocracy of money.
Another name, which has become historically
associated for all time with our late civil war;
Is tlat OF NlUcH. Ills dppSdlo All 'iiS
old New York Directory, and it is registered
there as John Slidell, soapboilcr, Broadway"
His son became a lawyer, United States Sena-
tor and Bsbel Minister to France. His father
-soap-boiler-could not have crossed the
threshold of the self-appointed aristocratic
dwellings of New York. But John Slidell, the
son. was the intimate friend and companion of
Fifth Avenue nabobs, and welcome habitue
of the New York clubs.
Tailors. shoemakers, bakers and butchers
with blacksmiths and mechanics, have had
quite as much to do with creating wealth and
posterity to enjoy it as any other and they have
peopled every department Of business and all
ranks Of society with representatives. But we
think we should stand fair to win the crown II
we should wager it that not one in hundred
of our youngmen and maidens would ever men
ton. except conidentially, the bench or the
kneading-trough or the slaughter-houseof their
fathers But no matter Each man in Amer

come the head of new line of respected and
honored defendants. Everyman, in fact, must
