Hints for the Ladies'.

When your husband returns home at night
let him find the fire out, his tea and toast
cold,i and you reading novel.
IF he tells youths expenses are more than
his income, and proposes to move into a
smaller house, sit down and cry about it, -
Tell him you always lived in a large house
before you were married.
If at the end Of few months he fails in
business, don't make the best Of his misfor-
tunes, or help him bear his troubles by Civ
ing him your sympathy. but cry as though
your heart would break.
Hint occasionally before him how much
higher position you held in society before
than since your marriage:
If he has business TO call him out in the
evening, be sure and fret when he returns,
about his being out at nights, and about his
disliking to be at home with his family.
Whine every time he comes into the house
about being tied at home Then if he pro-
poses to take you and the children out to
ride, tell him you are tired half to death,
and don't want to ride.
Follow out these hints faithfully, and in
return you willhave as impatient and discon-
tented a husband as can be found, and one
who will come home only at eating and sleep.

WHAT RAILROADS DO FOR FARMERS The
Agricuztwist says: To haul forty bushels of
corn fifty miles on a wagon would cost at
least $12 for team, driver and expenses.
A railroad would transport it for 81 at most.
Allowing an average Of forty bushels per
acre, the crop would be worth S. more per
acre, or per cent on 5000. AS the rela-
tive advantage is about the same for other
crops, it is clear that a railroad passing
through town would add 800 per acre to
the value Of the FARMS A town ten miles
square contains 4, 900 acres. An increase
of 800 per acre is equal to Sc, ACC, 900, or
enough to build two hundred miles Of rail-
road, even if it cost $52, GOO per mile But
two hundred miles Of road would extend
through twenty towns ten miles square, and
cost but ten dollars per acre, if taxed upon
the land: The figures are given merely as
an illustration. # the farmers had taxed
themselves to build all the railroads in this
country, and given them away to any com
panies that would stock and run them, the
present increased value of their land would
have well repaid all their outlay.
Just imagine the advantages Of the Nor
folk and Great Western railroad to the far
mers along its line. Let the good word go

FARMING.-Dr. Franklin said: ssThere
seems to be but three ways for a nation to
acquire wealth. The first is by war, as the.

this is robbery, The second BY commerce,
which is frequently cheating. The third by
agriculture, the only honest way wherein a
man receives a real increase of seed thrown
into the ground in a kind Of continual mira

vor, as a reward for his innocent life and his
yirtuous industry
