Conversation with the Sexes.

VIII at makes those men who associate
habitually with women, superior toothersg
What makes that woman, who is accustom-
ed to, and at ease in the company of men,
superior to her sex in general? Why are
the women of France so universallyadmir-
ed and loved for their colloquial powers?
Solely because they are in the habit of a
free, graceful and continual conversation
with the other sex. Women in this way
lose their frivolity, their faculties awaken,
their delicacies and peculiarities unfold
all their beauty and captivation, in the
spirit of intellectual rivalry. And the
men lose that pedantic, rude, declamatory
or sullen manner The coin of the under
standing and the heart is interchanged
continually. Their asperities arerubbed
off; their better materials polished and
frightened; and their richness like fine
gold is wrought into finer workmanship
by the fingers of woman, than it ever
could be by those of men. The iron and
steel of our characters are laid aside, like
the harshness of "a warrior in the time Of
peace and security .r.-

Keep the Roadsides Clean.

There are great many people who get
spells of cleaning up their yards of all
sorts of rubbish, cutting out the bushes
in the fence corners, 5uprooting the bur
docks, pig-weeds &c, with great
vehemence; but they half spoil the good
work by throwing the whole mass into
the roadside. Instead of collecting in
heaps and burning, thus Kidding their
premises entirely of the unsightly objects,
they leave them to speak Of their real
slovlinoss and inattention 1t is better,
we acknowledge, than to let them grow
as they were, but how much better to be
rid OF them completely No country, how
ever beautiful, naturally, will hold that
appearance to the casual visitor, or tasty
resident, with the roadsides strewed with
brush and refuse of all kinds, or, if al
owed to grow up to noxious weeds We
say keep the roadsides clean as we'll as the
yard and FARM r8trie Farmer.

How TO KEEP COOL.---Mr John Atfeld,
Professor of Practical chemistry to the
London Pharmaceutical Society, says on
the subject
"Fhe mistake people generally make, is
to throw open their windows at an hours
OF the day, no matter whether the atmos-
phere outside be cool or scorching. Let
US have some air. they say, and in comes
the treacherous breeze-for even hot air
is pleasant while it is gently blowing,
taking away perspiration and thereby
cooling the skin; but the apartment is
made warmer instead of cooler, and as
soon as they move out of the draft they
find their room to be more uncomfortable
than before. Let in cool air, keep out
hot that is the only formula to insure
the minimum of discomfort. Sitting
rooms may generally be kept cool during
the whole day if the doors be only opened
for ingress and egress, and the windows
be kept closed and shielded from direct
sunshine by a blind. If persons do not
object to sit in direct draft of air, win
dows and doors may be opened, breeze
being more refreshing even though sever
al degrees warmer than still air but I'M
der nearly all other circumstances rooms
should be kept closed as much as possible
till after shutdown, or till the air outside
is cooler than that inside. Let in cool
air, keep out hot"

IMPURE WATER.-Set pitcher of water
in a room, and in a few hours it Will have
absorbed nearly all the respired and per
spired gases in the room, the air of which
will become purer, but the water utterly
filthy. The colder the water is, the
greater the capacity to contain these
gases. At ordinary temperature a pail of
water will contain pint of carbonic acid
gas and several pints of ammonia The
capacity is nearly doubled by reducing
the water to the temperature of ice.
Hence, water kept in the room awhile is
always unfit for use. For the same reason
the water in the pump should always be
pumped out in the morning before any of
it is used. Impure water is more in
furious than impure air .s

STYLES OF ORAToRY.---Lord Stanly in
recent popular address, thus referred to all
the speakingmembers ofthe English House
of Commons:
Like every such assembly, it contained
four classes members who had something
to say, and who could and would say it
well those. "A very numerous class, who
had often great deal that they might
say, but who could not or did not like to
say it publicly, though they rendered val
liable service in forming and guiding OPP
inion; those who had nothing to say, and
said nothing; and those who, had nothing
to say, said it on many occasions and at
considerable length.

CHoLoFoRMING BEEs.-It is recommen.
ded by some, when bees settle in places
from which it is difficult to remove them,
to place clean cloth under them, and
another saturated with choloform over
the swarm. In a short time they will be-
come stupefed and drop upon the lower
cloth. They can then be gathered into a
fresh and well prepared hive, and when
resusitated placed on the bee stand. To
bacco smoke or that produced from burn
ing punk will probably answer just as
WELL and can be more safely used.

in England, by which the bran Of flour,
after being separated, is ground into an
impalpable powder, and then again mixed
with the flour. In this way all the nu-

the fneness of the flour is not affected.

RICHES OF THE BIBLE.--It is Book Of
laws to show therightand wrong; Book
of wisdom that makes the foolish wise ;
Book of truth which detects all human
errors Book of life which shows how
to avoid everlasting death. 1t is the most
authentic and entertaining history ever
published. 1t contains the most remote
antiquities and the most remarkable
events 1t is a complete code of Laws;
a perfect body of divinity; an unequaled
narrative; a Book of biography; Book
of travels; Book of voyages; the best
covenant ever made; the best deed ever
written 1t is the best will ever executed;
the best testament ever signed; the young
mans best companion; the school-boy's
best instructor; the ignorant mans die
tionary. 1t promises an eternal reward
to the faithful and believing. But that
which crowns all is the Author, with
whom there is no variableness, neither
shadow of turning"

THE HIRED MANS RooM.-Farmers
generally keep sharp lookout that their
horses have a good stable to be turned in
to when they are embarrassed at night,
and that they are provided with good
clean litter. Some go so far as to say
that mich cows do better if they have
good, clean yards and sheds to lie in
But this care in many instances does not
extend to the hired man. He is put away
in small, half ventilated room, in which
there is no furniture but hard bed and
single chair He can throw his clothes
into corner OF hang them on the bed
post Ii he wants to wash him he will
find a place out doors. He can shave and
comb his hair by the reflection of the
glass on his shaving box cover He Is not
supposed to need to clean his 5eeth, so he
has no need for place to put his brush.
He don't get any time to read, so he re-
quires no shelf to arrange his books or
papers on.
That hired man with this sort of ac-
comodations should become careless,
slovenly and inclined to frequent the gro
Gerry, no reasonable man should wonder
at. The way to remedy the evil is for
the farmers to correct their own mistakes.
Give the hired man, good, clean, nice
room, with at least white walls and
painted floor. 1t will pay to paper the
walls and to put rag carpet on the floor.
Provide him with a table for books, pa
pers and writing materials. Give him
wash basin and pitcher that he may wash
before leaving the room in the morning.
Let him have some extra chairs for the
accOmO6 atiOn of those Of his frinnda that
may call to see linn. In short give him
the sort of Accommodations that are neces-
sary to his health, comfort and happiness,
as you will be the gamer by the eXpendi-
ure-PrGlrie Fdrnaer. e5r

SINGULAR PREMoNITIoN OF DEATH
The Rev. Mr.. Smith, who, since October
last has held the pastoratc of the NJ e.
Church at Leoni, in this county, died at
his residence there on Tuesday afternoon
of this week His death was sudden,and
the circumstances attending it rather
peculiar. He preached twice last Sunday,
morning and afternoon as usual. During
the entire day he seemed to be impressed
with the idea that he had not long to live,
although he was then in perfect health as
far as appearances indicated. In the
course of one of his sermons he remarked
as though he was perfectly assured of the
fact, that this would probably be the last
time he should ever preach. lie after
ward shook hands with many of his con
gregation, bidding them farewell, and
saying that Heaven never seemed so near
to him as it had that day Late Sunday
evening he was taken suddenly ill, and
continued in great pain until 4 O'clock on
Tuesday afternoon when he died His
remains were taken to Ohio for interment

An Enthusiastic Protection.

Dr. Hartwell Carver, of Monroe county,
N. y, thirty years ago argued in favor of
building Pacific Railroad, and ten years
later memorialized Congress on the sub
ject. lie also originated the idea of
sleeping cars. The old gentleman, who
is nearly eighty, has just travelled over
the Pacific Railroad to the end of the
track. In letter to the Omaha HeraId,
he predicts that an airline road will be
built before many years, r. with track
eight or ten feet wide, with cars accomo-
dating from three to five hundred passen-
gers, with all the comforts of a hotel.
He adds: 81 mean if alive when the road
is completed and all things III order, to
travel from the city ofSan Francisco to the
city of Ne w York inside of forty eight
hours. We have got model car in New
Jersey, built of Cedar, with. each wheel
running by itself like wheelbarrow, and
a small engine, about as large as barrel,
in the bow of the car and have run it at
the rate of over two miles minute, with
perfect safety and ease"
