A Quaker having lost quarter Of
mutton by lawyers dog, repaired to the
office of the lawyer and said: g. have
come to ask piece of thy advice. Sup
pose dog carried off leg of mutton
from me where do look for pay, to the
dog or his owner 2" "Oh," said the man
of the quill, IS to the owner of the dog he
is responsible for any damage his dog does
you" :" Thee owes me seventy-fve cents
"Ah," said the lawyer, {" then my dog did
the mischief? Well, here is the money"
The face of the Quaker expanded with a
smile at his shrewdness in torestalling the
opinion of the lawyer, and he was making
his exit from the office, when he was
brought to a halt by the lawyer saying:
II have small bill against you, my
friend ?" "Ah! for WHAT" said the
Quaker. For advice in the dog case
two dollars" was the reply. This was a
poser. 1t being strictly legal, and the low
est fee in the calendar for advice, there
was no lodging, SO the money was forked
over and Shadbelly departed wiser if
not better man.

TEACHING CATTLE TO JUMP.-A
Western farmer says he makes it a rule,
whenever cattle are made to pass fence,
whether through bars or "slipgap," 10
leave the rail for them to pass under.
This gives them downward tendency,
and lessons their inclination to jump or look
upwards, as they are sure to do when a
lazy attendant throws down part of the
rails, and makes them vault the rest. Cat
tie may be taught to go over any fence by
the careful training they often get for this
end, performed as follows: First, sta rye
them or give them poor feed, which will
make them light and restless. As soon as
they 60 over the lowest part of the fence
after better provender, make them jump
back again and put on one more rail, say
ing, I guess that will keep them out. Next
day, of course, they will be in mischief
again, repeat the process adding another
rail; in short time they will take care of
themselves, and harvest the crops without
harge.-American Stock Journal.

- As an original expression Of heavy
grief we doubt if anything more touching
has been read than the following, of a
crushed heart in Star City, Nevada. Mrs.
-, of that place, an eccentric old lady,
recently rushed into the room of rela-
tive, and without waiting for the usual sal
utations, said:
Well, Johns dead!" (Her husband.)
"Dead Is it possible?
" Yes; dead! Died last night Want
you all to come to the funeral. The Ma
sons and Odd Fellows are going to turn
out. and we shall have beautiful time"
Deaths being of rare occurrence in the
settlement, of course everybody went to
the funeral. Next day somebody remark
ed to the old lady that there was large
turnout.
Yes, indeed there was" she replied,
" but didn't enjoy myself as well as I
have at some funerals, the bosses cut up

MILK FOR HEART DIsEAsE.-Under
the head of Milk cure" the Ledger some
time ago brought to public notice full
account Of the curative effects of contin-
ued use of milk regimen in the treatment
of many diseases-dyspepsia, dropsy and
affections of the breast etc., as described
by DR.. Karell. There is now additional
testimony on this subject, especially as re-
lates to morbid enlargement of the mus
cular structure of the heart scientifically

French physician at Montpelier. This

success the patient must follow strictly thu

FALL PLouGHINo.-A soil that Is close
hard, and 90 compact that the fibrous roots
OF plants cannot penetrate it. cannot be
expected TO produce crop Of wheat or
any other cereal, and consequently the
more porous we can make it the greater
the return il win yield. In order that the
nutritivs matter contained in the soil may
b made productive, we must csltivate
well. The ploughing must be we'll done |;
the manure applied to field should be
thoroughly incorporated with the soil in
order to be within the reach of the roots
OF the plants. Special attention should be
given to this subject at this time, and the
land got into the very best condition, that
we may raise larger crops to the acre. The
more land We can pillow in the fall, and get
in fine filth for planting or sowing, the less
we shall have to do in the spring. Many
farmers reaped the reward of their fore
sight in this particular the past spring.

only few days now and then we've fit to
do work in, and they succeed in getting in
their crops while their unfortunate neigh
