General Edmund Schriver, Inspector
of the United States Military Academy
at West Point, in his lust annual report.
remarks upon the superficial education
acquired by the candidates for admission
to that institution. He says that it is no
longer unusnai to find candidates reject
ed at West Point for deficiency in the
primary branches Of common school
education, in possession of diplomas
from reputable colleges, attesting their
proficiency in many kinds of knowledge.
He further says, that though the require
ments for admission are not beyond the
capacity of an ordinary pupil of the COM
mon schools, yet it is doubtful whether
one-tenth of the candidates for admis-
sion to West Point could pass tho pre-
limlnary examination without the one
years preparatory study required by law.

Care Of Tools.

A vast amount OF money is annually
worse than wasted by the agriculturlsts
of this country in their seuseless lack
of care of tools. They think Cor seem
to think) that because a mowing-ma-
chine or a plough is mainly of iron, the
weather will not affect it, and so both
are left standing where they were last
used until the next season comes, and
so of nearly all the implements on the
farm. All this is wrong. One of the
best farmers east of the Hudson ex-
pended, ten years ago, one hundred
dollars on shed thirty feet long by
twelve wide, under which his cart,
wagon, sled, mowing.machine, ploughs,
hoes, and chains, could be kept when
not in use. His implements are as
good now as they were then, with the
exception OF the inevitable wCHr which
their use involves, and ii - opinion of
the owner, the building has saved him
at least twenty per cent of It's cost each
wear. The same roof can be many times
made TO cover loft which can be used
as a granary, or for some other purpose
which the business done upon the farm
NAV make desirable. at the same time
that the lower part is used for the pur-
poses indicated above.

A Masonic Project in Tennessee.

In Tennessee the Masonic fraternity
have projected a novel plan for taking
care OF the widows and orphans of
deceased brothers of the mystic tie. y
In each grand division of the State a
thousand or more acres of land are to
be acquired by gift or purchase, and
this land will be cut up into small lots
of one or two acres, with small cot
tage on each lot. A portion Of the
land will be reserved for school house
and church, thus making the locality
a sort of community by itself. In most
cases there will be children enough to
care for the land, vegetables and fruits
for the market, and any deficiency Of
food and raiment will be supplied from
the benevolent fund of the grand di-
vision. The seventy-two Masonic lodges
of the State have already raised nearly
eighty thousand dollars toward the Oh
iect to be accomplished, and by another
wear will haveraised the amount desired,
before making practical test ofthe OBJ

Rats.

The vast destruction caused by rats
is not appreciated. Take the grains
upon which they feed; then the roots
which, for the lack of the former, they
gnaw then the damage to buildings,
bedding, clothing-in fact, almost every
thing they can get at, and put it into
an aggregate, and the amount would be
astonishing. The clergy cost the United
States six millions; lawyers, twenty-five
millions dogs, ten millions criminals,
twelve millions; and we believe rats,
more than either, and perhaps more
than all This is tie best season to
poison them. lfyou do 1t in the winter
thew die under the hearthstone. In THE
summer they are generally where You
cannot get at them but when fall
comes, YOU can dose them with arsenic
very effectually. Mix it with Indian
meal, or sprinkle it on bread, and then
cover it with butter and the work Is
done. Shut up the chickens until after
several good hard rains, for many Of
the rats will vomit up the bread or
meal after'tsking arsenic, and the chick
ems will eat it and die.

Hoohand's German Tonic

Wascompounded for those not inclined 10
extreme bitters, and is intended for use In
cases when some alcoholic stimulant Is re-
quired in connection with the Tonic proper
ties of the Bitters. Each bottle OF the Tonic
contains one bottle of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ Rum, and favored
in such manner that the extreme bitter
ness of the Bitters is overcome, forming a
preparation highly agreeable and pleasant
to the palate, and containing the medical
virtues of the Bitters. The price OF the
Tonic is sl.50 per bottle, which many per-
sons think too high. They must take into
consideration that the stimulant used Is
guaranteed to be of a pure quality. A poor
article could be furnished at "a cheaper price,
but is 1t not better TO pay little more and
have good article? A medicinal prepare
ton should contain none but the best ingre-
dients, and they who expect to obtain
cheap compound will most certainly be
cheated.

disc No. /. He then created all the
beasts Of the field and fowls of the air
to pass before Adam for him to name
them, which was piece of work he
had to do alone, 80 that no confusion
might thereafter arise from Eve, who he
knew would make trouble if she was
allowed to participate in it, ifhe created
her beforehand. ~
Adam being very much fatigued
with the labors Of his task fell asleep,
and when he awoke he found Eve in
the Lodge with him. Adam being
Senior Warden, placed Eve, as the pill
lar of beauty, in the South, and they re-
ceiyed their instructions from the Grand
Master in the East; which, when fin
ished, she Immediately called the Craft
from labor to refreshment. Instead of
attending to the duties of her office as
she ought, che left her station, violated
her obligations and let in an expelled
Mason, who had no business there, and
went around with him, leaving Adam
to look after the jewels. THIS fellow
had been expelled from the Grand
Lodge, with several others, some time
before. But hearing the footsteps OF
the Grand Master, he suddenly took his
leave, telling Eve to 60 to making
aprons as she and Adam were not in
proper regalia. She went and told
Adam, and when the Grand Master re-
turned to the lodge, he found his gavel
had been stolen.
He called for the senior and junior
wardens, who had neglected to guard
the door, and found them absent
After searching sometime, he came to
where they were hid and demanded of
Adam what he was doing there, instead
of occupying his official station. Adam
replied that he was waiting for Eve to
call the craft from refreshment to labor
again, and that the craft was not prop
erly clothed, which they were making
provision for. Turning to Eve he asked
her what she had to offer in excuse for
her unofficial and unmasonic conduct
She replied that fellow passing him
self as grand lecturer had been giving
her instructions, and she thought it was
no harm to learn them. The grand
master then asked her what had become
of his gavel. She said she didn't know,
unless that fellow had taken it away.
Finding that Eve was no longer trust
worthy, and that she had caused Adam
to neglect his duty, and mad let in one
whom he had expelled, the Grand Mas
ter had the lodge closed, turned them
out, and set a tyler to guard the door
with flaming sword. Adam, repent
ing Of his folly, went to work like man
and a good Mason, in order to get re-
instated again. Not so with Eve; she
got angry about it, and commenced rails
ing Cain. Adam, on account Of his in
formation, was permitted to establish
lodges and work in the lower degrees
and, while Eve was allowed to join him
in works of charity outside, she was
never again 20 be admitted to assist in
the regular work of the Craft. Hence
the reason why woman cannot become
an inside Mason.

OUR MASONIC COLUMN.
Grand Lodge OF West Virginia.

The recent communication Of the
Grand Lodge of West Virginia was well
attended and very pleasant. All Of the
subordinate Lodges in the jurisdiction
exc ept five were represented, about
seventy members of the Grand Lodge
being in attendance. The usual busi-
mes was transacted, and resolution
adopted for the payment, hereafter, of
the necessary expenses Of one delegate
from each Lodge, in attendance at the
Grand Lodge. In order to provide the
funds necessary for this purpose, the
Grand Lodge dues for the present year
were fixed at one dollar per member.
Most OF the officers Of the Grand
Lodge were reelected.
