THINGS WORTH REMEMBERING.
First deserve. and than desire.

First deserve, and than desire.
Remember that you are but dust.
Time is the rider that breaks youth,
Dead men open the eyes of the liv-
ing.
At a dangerous passage give the
precedeney.
DO what you ought, and let what
viii come of it.
Gratitude is the memory Of the
heart
Six feet Of earth makes all men the
same size.
The useful and the beautiful are
never far asunder.
"A miser surrounded with his gold,
suggests the idea of a thirsty fish
No evil action can be weH done, but
a good action may be i'll done.
He that SCOTS at the crooked, had
need go very upright himself.
Misery is useful only, for the Pur-
pose of cOneeahng ignorance.
Many adorn the tOmbs of those
whom, living, they prosecuted most
A clear conscience Is the best law,
and temperance the best physic.
"A man never losses by doing good
offices to others.
-Ridicule Is a weak weapon, when
leveled at a strong mind.
"A eival answer to a rude speech,
costs not much, and it Is worth great
deal.
All is hollow where the heart bears
no part, and all is peril whore principle
is not the guide.
There are some mortals whose
bodies are as the ornamented sepulchres
of their dead heart.
There never was hypoerite so dis
guised, but be had some mark or other
to be known By.
The lessons of life are lost, if they
do not impress US with the necessity Of
making ample allowance for the imma-
ture conclusions Of others.
No one can love what is not lovely
A sense of duty may prompt impartial
Justice, but affection viii be the reward
of desert alone.
The grander art, whether of poet
or painter, ever seeking for the true, ab-
hors the real you must seize nature as
her master, not lackey her as her slave.
-Ignorance, so far as learning Is con
cerned, is no disgrace to those who have
never possessed the means of improve
ment, it is otherwise, however, when OP-
portunity has been neglected.
As bees can breed no poison though
thev suck the deadliest juices, 50 the
noble mind, though forced to drain the
eup Of misery, can yield but generous
thoughts and noble deeds.
Nothing is more dissimilar tnaa
natural and acquired politeness- Inc
first consists IN a willing abnegation OF
self; the second in eomPeiled recoAee-
ton Of others.
Row,re of confding in distant pros
-. - happiness, lest they be suddenly
p"S.sas~,.sHoted BY the most trivial present
ma~stion. A leaf in the foreground is
large enough to conceal a forest in the
far horizon.
The bright spots of mans life are
few enough, without blotting any OUT
and since, for a moment Of mirth We
have an hour of sadness, It were sorry
policy to diminish the few rays that
Illumine our ehequered existence. Life

At fashionable church, where
pews are eagerly snapped up at about a
thousand dollars each, young man and
his newly married wife recently at
tended worship, and were SO we'll pleased
with the preaching that they resolved to
attend regularly. Accordingly as they
passed out one Sunday, the gentleman,
calling the sexton aside, said patroniz-
ingly " See here, / think, on the whole,
III come to this church. Now l want
to hire two seats-gOod seats, mind you
ON the lower floor, and now let me see
all that you have to let" To let, did
l understand yon22 inquired the sexton,
" Yes; l don't mind paying four or FIVE
dollars extra for two choice broad aisle
seats" replied the applicant. Young
man, said the somewhat practical Gus
todian, "we have no seats to let; we do
not do retail business at this house.

-Thoss can most easily dispense with
society who are the most calculated to
adorn it; they only are dependent on it
who possess no mental resources for
though they bring nothing to the general
mart, ike beggars, they are too poor to
stay at home.

Men speak too much about the
world. Each one Of US here, let the
world ge how it will, and be victorious
or not victorious, has ne not life Of
his own to lead? The worlds being
saved, will not save US; nor the worlds
being lost, destroy US. We should look
to ourselves; there is great merit here
in the duty of staying at home.

DRUNK.-Young man, did you
ever stop to think how that word
sounds2 Did you ever think what
misery and woe you brought upon
your friends, when you Degrade
your manhood by getting drunk
y! 1t is-a fearful thing to trample
under foot the high claims that God
and man have upon you. Drunk!
How it rings in the ear Of loving
wife! How it makes the heart of Il
fond mother bleed! How it brushes
out the hopes Of u doting father,
and brings reproach and shame
upon loving sisters! Drunk! Sec him
as he leans agains some friendly
house. He stands ready to fall in.
t. tho jaws of hell, unconscious as to
his approaching fate. Tho wife,
with fearful eyes and aching heart,
sits at the window to hear her hus
bands footsteps; but alas! they come
not. He is drunk! The husband,
the parent, is drunk, spending his
time and money when he should, be
at the home circle, is drunk! IIc
is spending the means of support
for liquor, while his family is starry
ing for bread, his children suffering
for clothing. Drunlsl His reputu-
ton is gone, gonol His friends one
by ono, are reluctantly leaving
him to his miserable fate. lie goes
down to the grave "unhonorcd and
unsung."

Modes Of faI,enins Hogs.

Not a few farmers feed corn IN
the ear, and some eyen raw p0la-
toes, to their ialtening swine. One
third would probably DO an under,
estimate Of the loss By this easiest
but most sloyenly and costly prae'
tice.
A larger number mix dry meal
with cold water or slops, aud imme-
diatcly feed II 10 their hogs, The
loss in this case is not rs much ne
in feeding the corn ungrOund, but
IL cannot DO less than from fifteen
10 twenty-five per cent,
/ Still others cook their meal with
their potatoes, both thoroughly,
completely mixing tho one with tho
other, and then adding TO the con.
glomoratc water sufficient to make
thick mush, present il to the graf
flied and hearty eaters, thereby saw.
ing nearly all the fatprodueing val.
no contained in the grain aud the
potatoes,
For several years wo have adopt.
cd this plan, Everything fed TO
our hogs, while iattcning, Is cooked,
but nothing is ground. To one
bushcl and n half of potatoes crash.
ED, We add three pocks Of dry corn
in the kernel, and then with n lib.
eral supply of water in kettle nj.
most steam tight, we cook tor at
least three hours. The kernels are
then three or four times their origi.
nal size, and the potatoes arc mush
and when thoroughly mixed the
dish is as acceptable rs can be pre-.
sentcd TO a lot of fatt0ning hogs.
And as every particle Of the food is
(or can bc) reduced to a paste by
the slightest mastication, much
more by the action ofthe stomach,
there can be little if any loss. n
The advantages arc, that you save
the time Of taking your grain to
the mill, the toll, and having your
grain always at hand in q proper
condition TO use; there is steadi-
ness about the food that is ono of
the main elements Of success in
feeding fattcning animals.
An addition ola few quarts ofrye
and an occasional peck OF oats, max
ing II little variety, is always n ju.
dicious plan; either of which is rs
easily cooked as the heavier and
larger kernels Of corn.
TO fatten well, hogs must have a
clean pen and comfortable nest.
An addition of muck or mould or
dry leaves should be made to the
yard at least twice in each week,
and the bed should have special at
tention rs often MS every other
night. Wading round up to their
bellies in mud is very Improbable
lu mess for ANIMALS upon which
we are anxious to place us chcaply
as possible the largest amount of
fat; while nights, worn out in the
rcstlessncss that wet straw or wet
earth always makes inevitable, arc
not especially conducive to tho
same desirable end.
