The Eastern State Normal School, at

with SO much vigor, is still flourishing-
it, numbers this term SURPRISING those
OF the cider school at Pennington. The
wisier term. in all Normal schools, is
expected to be small. fiom the great
dem and for teachers Of common schools
at this season OF the year. But the new
pupils which have entered this term at
Casiine, about 70, have done much to
ill the vacancy created by this demand.
1t is manifest that the advantages
of Normal school~instructio are be-
ginning to be somewhat appreciated in
Eastern Maine. May the time soon
come, in all our towns, when the de-
mands of each School Dis riot shall be
satisfied with qualifications in teacher
nothing less than such as result from q

A little while before Napoleon di
vorced Josephine, and marri, d Ma.
ria Louise, he was one evening
entering tie park at Fountainbleau,
when the savory perfume of some
thing he remembered drew him to
the keepers lodge, and he discovered
the scent to be the matter-of-fact
smell of soup. There the bulky dish
stood, fuming away gloriously. Ma
poleon was hungry, and asked for a
plateful of the wholesome food.
While the good people were hurry
ing about to place the best of their
crockery before him, the emperor
observed that one of the keepers
girls looked at him very sorrowful-
ly; and when he had eaten bis soup
with much relish, he then inquired
what her grief was: 81 hear your
majesty is going to divorce our sweet
MISTRESS answered the girl, "and it
grieves us ALL" "You don't under
stand politics." said Napoleon alb
ruptly and hurried away. Josephine
heard of what had been said by the
keepers daughter, and when she
was divorced, presented her with a
ring of pearls, thanking her for
having said kind word while her
courtiers looked on and remained
indifferent. The ring has ever since
been held in great veneration.

LAw.-The verbose technicalities
of legal phraseology are well hit of
in the following:
Ii man would, according to law,
give to another an orange, instead oil
saying 81 give you the orange"
which one would think would be
what is called in legal phraseology,
"an absolute conveyance of all right
and title therein,'' the phrase would
run thus:
81 give you, and singular, my
estate and interest, right, title and
claim, and advantage of and in that
orange, with all its rind, skin, juice,
pulp. and pips, and all right and
advantage therein, with full power to
bite, cut, suck, and otherwise eat the
same, and give the same away, and
fully and effectually as /, said A. B.,
am now entitled to bite, cut, suck,
or otherwise eat the same orange, or
give the same away, with or without
the rind, juice, julp, or pips; any
thing heretofore, or hereafter, or in
any other deed or deeds, instruments,
of what nature or kind soever to the
contrary in anywise notwithstand-
ing.
Such is the language of lawyers,
and it is very gravely said by the
most learned among them, that by
the omission of any of these words,
tine right to the said orange would
not pass to the person for whose use
it was intended.

Farming for Present Profit.

There are too many farmers thai
make it their sole business to farm Il
for the present profit, without ever
SO much as one thought of the future
condition of their farms. They want
to get all they possibly can into
money this year, and let the next
year take care of itself. Now if
farmers would farm it on the pripci.
pie of making their farms better
instead of worse, how different thirg gs
would be in a few years from what
they are now. Their farms would
bring at least one third more if put
into market, than if sold now. But
most farmers do not see this so. they
are bound to act on the skinnipp
principle altogether, that is, sell ali
they can and put nothing back to
keep up the fertility of the soil
They plough up too much in the first
place; in the second place, they do
not dress it; thirdly, they plant too
many potatoes fourthly, they sow
too many oats. And it Is in this
way that farms so carried on are
gradually growing poorer, when if
rightly managed, they might be all
the time growing better. If their
owners could be made to believe that
they could make more money by i'm
proving their farms than by raising
al they possibly can to sell, to put
INTO their pockets, it would be
yreat thing for the farmers of this
'tste. -sa

Yoorrnrc { scu,C.rrRs nno of /,

SCH,cKExs.L0ne of the
most scientific and successful poul-
Try breeders of Germany says, in a
recent number of the Poultry Jour
nal, that young chickens should nev-
Ier be fed with boiled eggs, nor should
they have access to water, otherwise
than mixed with their food, until
several days old. : Many people on
the farms with us are in the habit of
mixing dough with cold water.
This is wrong. The Indian meal
ought to be cooked, or at least scald-
led. Many lose their young chickens
from neglect to scald the meal, and
wonder what the matter is.
