FUN AT HOME.

Don't be afraid of little fun at
home, good people. Don't shut up
your house lest the sun should fade
your carpets, and your heart lest a
hearty laugh shake down some Of the
musty old cobwebs there. If yen want
to ruin your sons, let them think that
mirth and social enjoyment must be
lett on the threshold without, when
they come home at night. When once
homo is regarded as only place to
eat, drink and sleep in, the work be-
gins that ends in gambling houses and
reckless dissipation. Young people
must have fun and relaxation some
where; if they do not find it at their
own hearthstones it will be sought at
less profitable places. Therefore let
the fire burn brightly at night, and
make the homestead delightful with
all those little arts that parents per-
tectly understand. Don't repress the
buoyant spirits of your children; half
an hour Of merriment round the lamp
and freight of home, blots out the
remembrance of many a care and an
noyance during the day, and the besc
safeguard they can take with them in
to the world is the unseen influence of
u bright little domestic frcsidc.

tainted atmosphere, and keeping it at
an even temperature whilc the cream
is rising.
3D.. Proper management in churn-

4th. Washing out the butiermilk
thoroughly and working 80 as not to

AN EDITOR STRUCK.

The local editor Of the Wabash Plain
Dealer has recently fallen in love lie
tells about it, and in anticipation of the
glories Of the coming day, he goes off
in this wise:

angelic form upon herlittle toes, places
her heaving bosom against your vest

A MATRIMONIAL TRICK.

A rich old widower in Canada is
said TO have practised very artiul
scheme to gain the hand of the belle of
the village. He got an old gypsy to
tell the young lady's fortune in words
which he dictated as follows:
"My dear young lady, your star will
soon be hid for short time by a very
dark cloud, but when it re-appears it
will continue TO shine with uninter-
rupted splendor until the end of your,
days. Before one week wealthy old
widower, wearing suit of black, and
fine castor hat, will pay you a visit
and request your hand in marriage
You will accept his offer, become his
wife, and be left widow in possession
of all his property before the close of
the year. Your next husband will be
the young man of whom you think
most at present"
Three days after, the old gentleman
dressed in the manner described by the
gipsy, presented himself to the young
lady, and the marriage followed. The
year is more than out but the tough
old widower still fingers.

silent lips, and folded hands, sleeping
peacefully IN death; the mission OF
each accomplished the work of life all
done. The little boy and the great
statesman There is something beau
tiful in the thought Of the sweet mis-.
sion Willie's death may have accom-
plished; how far reaching in its infn-
ence who shall tell. His life OF Joy ia
ded out in troublous times, and the
shadow of great sorrow was added
to the heart already overburdencd with
the weight of periled nations care.
II seems 10 me, that as bis spirit went
upward, the door of heaven was left a..
jar to the spiritual. eye of Abraham
Lincoln, and that often, amid his wea.
riness and toll, he caught glimpses of
the glory to be revealed; and above
the jar and tumult of earths discord-
ant passions, came often to soOthe his
troubled spirit-a sound of the heav.
emily harmony, in which was mingled
the voice of his departed child And
that noble heart, always tender and
generous, grew moro and more soften

seen influence, and he wrought and
wept and prayed increasingly, for the
great good OF the nation, and the
world his warm sympathies gush
ing out even towards his murderous
enemies.
Willie though absent, was ever pres.
ent with his Father, for he said upon
one occasion 10 an officer in TIE army,
"Do you ever find yourself talking
with the dead? Since Willie died, l
catch myself talking with him every
day as though be were with me"
All. who knows what precious spir.

knows how silently and swectIy the

of the Kingdom? And who knows
what sure foreshadowings thrilled that
great yearning heart; of the not dis
lant time, when, on the other shore,
he should clasp again the hand of his
boy, and together they should stray by
the 'still waters and green pastures,
Of the better land.
But three years they were divided
to Willie, wandering amid the glories
of Heaven, they were but so many gol
den hours; TO his father, such years as
no man ever lived before; in which
the heart.throbs of lifetime were con
densed, and sublime mission was ac
complshod. And then another sbad

in comparison to which, the shadow
Willie's coffin had cast there, was, oh
so small. That fell darkly on the
hearts of parents and brothers, but this
fell dark and black over great nation

took up the sleeping boy tonderly, and
laid him by the mighty dead, and bro't

Saving Grease and Nj king Soap.

In order to keep soap grease clean
and sweet during the summer, rnn off
somo lye, and boil it down until it will
cat feather, if put into it. Then put
it down in iron or other vessel, and
throw your meat rinds and scraps
therein. When you make your soap,
boildownlye as before, put it in a kettle,
and this grease with other if you have
it, and let it boil and stir occasionally.
In order to test the proportions OF
grease and lye, take some out into a
dish, let it cool, and if it does not get
hard, your soap needs more boiling
The experienced can test the presence
of too much lye BY its keen bite. and
its absence, vice versa, by touch of
the tongue. A half day is time enough
ordinarily to make kettle of soap,
which, when done, should cut out like
gingerbread.-C0r. Germantown Tele-

A REMEDY FOR VINE BUGs.-A wri-

that radishes planted in the hill, with

like the radsh plants better than the
vines and will eat them first, and in the
meantime tho vine plants grow to a
size that the bugs don't molest them.

BARLEY AND RYE FOR HORSES.

A correspondent of the Country Gen
tleman" writes as follows:
"My first experience in feeding barley
TO horses was in California, where there
was no other grain raised for feed at the
time | was there, All our horses were
fed on it for two years without any change
and never got tired Of it, always thriving
and looking remarkably fno for the
amount of labor they performed. This
induced me to raise it 10 feed after my
return from that country and | have
learned to esteem it higher than any other
grain (when ground) for horses, 1t is
too hard to feed in the grain. 1t is less
liable to founder thao corn, wheat or rye
yet contains but very little less nutrimens
than either of those grains. l have rails
ed great many colts and have made
the breeding Of trotting horses a study,
and in all my experience l have found
nothing equal to barley meal to make
mare give milk. have found it no
disadvantage to a mare getting with loal
and not any while she was SO. Oats are
a better feed Tor colts from weaving time
until they 60 to work.
"Rye is a dangerous grain to feed alone;
it is more liable 10 founder than any other
grain; but to mix with shorts, or to grind
with oats and feed with cut hay or straw,
it makes an excellent feed for horses
