GreasIng Wagons.

Bnt few people are aware that they
do wagons and carriages more injury
by greasing too plentitully than in
any other way. A well-made wheel
will endure common wear from ten to
twenty five years, if care is taken to
nae the right kind and proper amount
OF grease; but it this matter is not at
tended to, they will b. used up in five
or six years. Lard should never be
used on a wagon, for it will penetrate
the hub and work it's way ont around
the lemons of the spokes and spoil the
wheel. Talow is is the best lubrica.
tor Tor wood axletrees, and castor oil
for iron.
Just grease enough should be ap-
piled to the spindle OF wagon to
give it a light coating; this is better
than more. Tor the surplus put on will
work ont at The ends, and be forced
By the shoulder bands and nut-wash-
srs into the hub around the outside OF
the boxes.

liant toward the ladies of our country. He
doesn't talk "pretty to them, after the style of
the Rev. Mr.. Creamcheese. Here is a sample of
his style -" When see the tawdry fashions,
the costly vulgarity and the wicked extrava-
gance of the times, feel sure that thousands of
American women are strangers to the first law

When see the thousands of American women

A MARRIED WOMAN SPEAKs.-NOt long ago the
Californian published an article, the tenor of
which was that married women should not dance.
married woman thinks they should, as will be
discovered by reading the following extract from
her reply -" / have read in the Californian an
article which argues that married women ought
not to dance, and l think it is perfectly horrid
that such things should be printed in any news
paper. AS for taking away the partners from
the girls how foolish you must be, not to see
that it isn't because we married we do that,
but because We happen to be more fascinating
mean those of us who have great many part
ners, and are often invited to dance. If wo-
man is pretty and amusing, she always has part
ners enough whether she is married or single,
and there is occasion COR her to be a wall
flower and have heart-burnings. You talk
about our 'infesting bathrooms, and walking off
with partners under the very eyes of girls who,
of course, are in the secret need of them can
tell you, sir, that if some of did not infest ;
the bathrooms, the girls would stand q still
worse chance of getting partners, because many
men would not go to balls merely to have the
pleasure of dancing with bread-and-hutter misses
or old maids. Then you say nothing about hus-
bands Are they too to give up dancing? or are
we expected to make wal-fowers Of ourselves
while they go whirling roand with some firt of
girl before very eyes? Sir, it can't be
done, we can't be made to look upon it in that
light"

was the following:

A VILLAINoUs OLD RAKE-A CASE THAT NO
LAW ON THE STATUTE Book CAN REACH-WHAT IS
BE Done THE inhabitants of our quiet and
virtnous city have for the past two or three
weeks been compelled to behold in their midst a
most disgraceful and unpleasant scene. An old
hoary- headed individual who has been stopping
here for the past two months and over whose
head the frosts of many Winters have passed
has been publicly seen reclining in the lap and
arms of young and blushing damsel. Whether
it has been matter of choice upon the part OF
the maiden, or whether the attentions of the old
gray-headed villain were forced upon her we are
unable to say we can say, however, that such
conduct is not looked upon with favor by our
citizens, and if the young lady expects to remain
in our midst long and desires TO retrieve her char
ter, the first step necessary for her to take is to
dismiss from her society her old paramour and
send him TO the Arctic regions. We believe
that this decrepid old man usually goes by the
name of Winter while the blooming lass is COM

POWER OF GROWING TREE.-Waton Hall,
England, had at one time its own corn-mill, and
when that inconvenient necessity no longer ex-
listed the milestone was laid by in an orchard
and was forgotten. The diameter of this circu-
lar stone measured five feet and a-half while its
depth averaged seven inches throughout its
center hole had diameter of eleven inches. BY
mere accident some bird or squirrel had droukd
the fruit o. the flbert tree through the he u
the earth, and in 1872 the seed was risiNSip
through that unwonted channel. AS its trunk
gradually grew through this aperture and in
creased, its power to raise the ponderous mass
of stone was speculated on by many. Would
the flbert tree die in the attempt? Would it
burst the milestone? or would it lift it up? In
the end the little flbert tree lifted the milestone,
and in 1868 wore it like crinoline about its
trunk and Mr.. Waterton used it to sit upon I'M
der the branching shade.

quets. No matter what ''other girls do" don It
you do it. Schoolgirl hirtations may end dis

to love is great need of every woman's heart.
But there is time for everything. Don't let
the bloom and freshness of your heart be washed
off in silly hirtations Render yourself truly ir-
teligent. And, above all, tell your mother
everything. Never be ashamed to tell her, who
should be your best friend and confdant, all you
think and feel. 1t is very strange that so many
young girls will tell every person before

she should know. 1t is very sad that Indifferent
