ADVICE TO "GREEN" SKATERs.-Now that
the skating mania has broken out with vio-
lence, an exchange takes occasion to print
the following directions FOR new beginners.
/. Never try to skate in two directions at
once. This feat has often been attempted
by new beginners, but never successfully. 1t
always ends in sorrow. 2. Eat few apples
for refreshment sake while skating, ana be
sure to throw the cores on the ice for fast
skaters to break their shins over. Fast ska
tiers are your natural enemies and should not
be allowed to enjoy themselves peaceably.
3. Sit down occasionally, no matter where
right in the way OF the rest of the party
if you want to. There is no law to oprevent
q new beginner from sitting down whenever
he has an inclination to do so. 4. When
you meet particularly handsome lady, try
to skate on both sides of her at once. This
! is very pretty and sure to create n sensation.
! If the lady's big brother is in sight it is we'll
10 omit this. 5. Skate over ali the small
| boys at once. Knock 'cm down. 1t makes
great fun, and-they like it. @. If you skate
INTO hole in the ice, take it coolly. Think
how you would feel if the water was boiling
hot. your skates are too slippery buy
new pair. Keep buying new pairs until you
find pair that are not slippery. This will
be fun for the dealers in skates. s. In sitting
down, do it gradually. Don't he too sudden,
you may break the ice. 8. When you fall
headlong, examine the straps of your skates
carefully before getting up. This will make
everybody think you fell because your strap
was loose. Beginners always do you know.
10. Wear a heavy overcoat or cloak until
you get thoroughly warmed up, and throw
it off, and let the wind cool you, This will
insure a fine cold that will last you as long
as you live. H. After you get so you can
skate tolerably well, skate yourself sick i'm
mediately. Don't be reasonable about it !;
skate three or four hours-skate fanatically
skate until you can't stand up. Do this
every, and it will be sure to make you sick
at least and then you may die, and that
will be an excellent thing it will be such a
good example to the rest of the young peo-
pie.
A few simple directions for lady skaters
are added:
/. If you wear filters on the ice he sure
that your calves are properly adjusted. The
spectators along the banks are generally
critical. 2. Scream prettily in passing an
air hole, and give the arm of Charles Au-
gustus a frantic squeeze 1t makes him feet
his oats in protectiODal way. 3. If your
skating partner is eligible, and your foot is
pretty don't hesitate about asking him to
adjust your skate straps every ten minutes.
He will rather like it.

Rights Of Railroad Travellers 10
First Class Cnrs ON First Glass
TfcEers

The length to which some conductors on
railroads carry their discretionary power"
is, says the Cincinnati Commercial as most
travellers know, too long, but there are few
people in these go-abead times. who care tn
press the matter to the final arbitrament Of
a court of justice, or even carry it before the
dictatorship of the railroad on which their
legal rights have been curtailed; first because
the desire to do so cools ton soon; and last
| ly, because it is troublesome and requires
| time, which is often more precious than the
| temporary satisfaction of maintaining re-
served rights.
An incident which came to our knowledge
yesterday, however, is an exception to this
I rule, and is therefore deserving of mention,
especially as it may serve to assure others
that il is well to TRY all things, and hold
fast to that which is good"
A Mr.. w. p. Dale, of New York having
business in the West, reached Hamilton, and,
after transactiDg his business there, got or
the Chicago and Cincinnati train for a point
further up. There were but two cars--a Ia =
dies car, so called, and smoking car-into
which Mr.. Dale was obliged to the brakes
man refusing him access to the ladies' car.
He appealed to the conductor, whose name
is Cooper, but he sustained the action of the
brakesman. Mr.. Dale asserted his right to a
seat III the first class car on his first class
ticket, and refused to give it up until he re-
ceived what he was entitled to, whereupon
the conductor called the workmcn on the
train to his aid, and forcibly elected him from
the train.
Instead of going on the succeeding train.
Mr. Dale came to this city, and, going to tho
Office of the Chicago and Cincinnati Railroad
made statement of his case. The company
acted promptly in the discharged
the conductor and compensated Mr.. Dale for
his loss of time, and decided, besides, that
the holder of first class tcke: has the right
to a seat in a first class car.

THE GRAPE CULTURE.-Some OF our most
intelligent and experienced grape growers
are coming to the conclusion that there
can be no definite rules laid down for
the culture of outdoor grapes. This is
the wisest thing we have yet seen in regard
to this question. 1t comes up very much to
what We have long believed. There are GER
tain general rules to follow which no one
negects who knows anything about grape
growing but after that each one must de-
eide for himself the soil, exposure trellis,
variety of grape and general culture. After
fair trial he will socn discover the best
grapes for his soil and the best management.
If he follows the multitude of directions to
be found in vo!uminous communications in
some of our horticultural journals, or inna-
merablc books which make the subject
specially, he will be sure to put his foot
into it," and have his labor for his pains.
We have some "crack grapes" that have
been planted for years in carefully prepared
places that give no indication yet of either
growing more than about foot or two
year. or of bearing, though they stand side
by-side other vines that are vigorous growers
and productive bearers Ge'mantonn TsIe
