PRoPAGATING HoUsE-PLANTs.-As a
general rule, hot bed, or some similar
structure, is necessary for propagating the
various species of tender plants. There
are, however, many exceptions to the rule,
and with proper care, cuttings of the more
common plants used for bedding purposes
will strike root quite readily in the open air.
Geraniums, heliotropc, verbenas, coleu-
ses, lantanas, and other succulent plants,
may be propagated to an unlimited extent
from cuttings planted in half-shady bor-
der, and then supplied with an abundance
of water.
We use a soil composed of about equal
parts Of leaf-mould and sand. The cut
tings are taken from the terminal shoots,
cut into lengths of two or three inches,
and the leaves removed except two or three
of the upper ones. The cuttings are then
set with small dibble, and the soil press
ed firmly about them. If the surface of
the soil is covered with thin layer of some
fine material like moss, there will be less
danger of the cuttings suffering for want of
moisture. Cuttings of Tea and Bourbon
roses may also be made to strike root un-
der such condition, and fno plants for win
ter produced very rapidly and cheaply.
The hotter the weather, the sooner will
the cuttings strike root, but water must
be given often and in liberal quantities.

CASTLE COUNTY, DELAWARE

ELLEN, if you call my wife mother,
will get these things for you. / do not
like to hear you call her Mrs. Gordon,
especially before strangers.
Very WE'LL" returned, II can do
without them: thay are not absolutely
necessary to my happiness"
The morning Of the exhibition day came,
and as was leaving the institution l saw
Mrs. Gordon come out of the jewellers
and walk hastily home. I followed, vex-
ed and almost angry, thought to myself
elf call her mother at dinner, papa will
notice it and get me the ornaments while
| am dressing, and can wear them to
the exhibition this afternoon and to the
party this evening. wonder what En-
ma Andrews would say if should, as l
told her / never would while | lived, and
| won't, so that's decided"
Dinner over, l went up to my room to
dress, for the exercises were to commence
at two. AS stood by tho table, noticed
a small kid case, with slip of paper on
it. l opened the paper, which bore my
name on the outside, and read "Will
Nellie accept this from her friend, Alice
Gordon p In the box lay the long covet-
ed ornaments in their satin bed. This
last act of forbearance and love was more
even than l could endure. and l sobbed
bitterly, while conscience upbraided me
for the past. l did not wish to 20 down,
and as Florie was dressed l wrote on a
slip of paper: Accept the thanks of
your daughter, Ellen" and she carried it
70 T
her.
In a few moments I heard steps ap-
proaching, and turning l laid my head on
her shoulder and murmured: "Forgive
me, mther."
Gently she smoothed back the heavy
mass of hair from my forehead. 81 did
not do this 10 buy your love, Nellie" she
said. Il hope you would have given that
without this testimony of my affection"
From that day the most perfect conf
dence existed between US, and l ever found
her true friend--a faithful adviser. And
now, though decade of years have passed
away, l still remember the look of satisfac-
ton that rested on her face, at the result
of her labor of love, when yielded to the
dictates of my better nature, and gave her
a daughters love and respect.
A little child whose lips have just learn
ed to speak that sweetest of all words
mammals sleeping in her tiny couch at
my side; and when l think of the future of
the little one God has committed to my
care, pray to the Great Disposer of all hu-
name events, that if be called to leave her
while yet her feet are in the thorny paths
of childhood and youth, that she may find
as faithful friend in step-mother, as she
whom in my early youth | learned to call
by that name.
This wide and unfounded prejudice
against the class referred to has caused
much unhappincss in many families.
Let all who have care of children do
all in their power to disabuse their young
minds of such feeling.
Experience has taught me that one may
find true, faithful and loving friend even
in the person of step-mother.

JHEAp AND FINE VARNIsn FOR Woo

CHEAP AND FINE VARNIsu FOR WooD.-
The beautiful varnish applied to Connecti-
cut bookcases, wooden picture frames,
and other cheap objects, is in appearance
equal to the elaborate finish of the finest
furniture, such as pianos, etc. 1t is made
by mixing two pounds Of copal varnish with
half an ounce Of linseed oil'varnish. Tho
mixture is shaken often to mix it we'll, and
is then placed on warm spot. The wood
to be vanished is prepared with a thin
coat of glue-water, dried slowly, and rub
bed down with fine pumice-stone or some-
thing equivalent. In light-colored wood,
light pigment, such as chalk, is added
to the gluo-water; in dark wood. an equal
ly dark pigment is added. When ready.
the articles are vanished with the above
mixture. and after drying, rub with So
luton of wax in ether. thereby acquiring
a high polish.

A SONG OF HOME.

Ere the lamps are lit and the curtains drawn,
As we sit by the fireside bright,
There comes an hour of tender thought,
At the falling Of the night,
When the day-cares fade with the day-god's beam
And we gather in silence all,
To watch by the fires shimmerng CLEANS
The shadows on the wall.
As they rise and fall with the Pickering rays,
Memory unveils her glass,
And won by the spell of the magic time,
Our lost ones before us pass;
Again we sec the cherished face
And the loving voice we hear,
And we reach our arms for fond embrace,
And clasp the empty air.
Fond wives sit mute with lips unclosed,
And list for the ringing sound
That husbands step gives to the air
Only when homeward bound.
The nestlings close to the bosom cling
With loving lips and hands,
And low soft voices sweet lullabys sing,
The same, though in many lands
CHORUS.
Come home, my love, come home to me,
Though by day you may wander far
At twilight sock the household tree,
Come home with the evening star
NJ.

KILLING WfEDs.-Many farmers have
an erroneous notion in regard to the de-
struction of weeds on grass lands. The
impression prevails that the only way to
get rid of weeds is to break up and thor
oughly cultivate the ground in hoed crops.
This is not always convenient or even de-
sirable, for in many cases it cannot be done
without breaking up the herd or dairy,
while some uneven surfaces cannot be
ploughed. There is another way of killing
weeds, such as the daisy and that class Of
plants, by the liberal use of manure and
grass seed. We have eradicated white
daisy in several instances by simply apply
ing farm-yard dung and plaster. and
strewing the ground with clover. Estab-
lish your clover upon the soil and feed it
until it is luxuriant, and it fast lays hold
of the daisy and other weeds aud ohokes
the life out of them.

CHARCOAL FOR FowLs.-A writer in the
American Agriculturist gives statement
how one by one his turkeys were unac-
countably dying off, and how he rcsorted
to different methods to arrest the mortali-
ty without success, until, by accident,
some charcoal, along with the ashes. was
thrown out from his smoke-houss. This
charcoal the turkeys very grecdily de-
voured. and the strange mortality ceased.
May not pulverized charcoal mixed with
chicken feed, be also a remedy for chicken

l3 Four bobbins hold spool of cotton.
IA 1t has the best hemmcr.
10 1t has the most complete attachment, the
Jack-of-all- trades, hens, fclls, binds bastes,
tucks, braids and rufiies
l6 1t is as simple as any machine in the mar
ket.

burdens" Is obscured by these arbitrary in
| terTuptions, Each prophecy is poem, and
| should be printed as distinctly by itself as a
psalm of David. But the Burden of Babvlon
Is cut in two-part is in one chapter, part in
another; while the Burden Of PdIesfina is
tagged to the end Of chapter xiv as an appen-
dage to the Burden Of Babylon. In chapter
xxi three distinct prophecies concerning
three different countries are rolled into
one. 1t would be far less misleading to print
three psalms in one chapter than thus
to confuse and confound three prophecies.
or the same character is the cutting off of
the twenty-frst chapter of the Acts from the
twento-second chapter. The former, like
sensation novel published in parts, breaks off
IN the midst of the interest. The same Of
fense is repeated at the end of the 23d chap
ter. Of course, no such unworthy motives
influenced Stephen, who happily lived before
the days of dime novels; and it was only q
heavier jolt, or q more hazardous stumble
that broke the thread of Lukes narrative in
these most inopportune places. The Bible is
q household volume, given to the poo
pie, and for private reading. 1t is read,
and heard read, q dozen times as often
as it is used for verifying quotations. Let it,
therefore, be printed in the interest of the
people, rather than in the interest of the po-
lemic. What defense can be made for ampu-
tating the last part of the eighth chapter of
Mark, and adding it to chapter tx? 1t is the
conclusion of a most touching appeal, 'the
immediate jewell of Christ's discourse. The
man who perpetrated it robbed the eighth
chapter of that which did not enrich the
ninth, and made the former poor indeed.
If, now, the Christian public ask, s'Whose
duty is it to put the Word before the Ameri-
can people in readable form?" we answer
unhesitatingly, The American Bible Societys.
Its position, its wealth, its power, and its
prestige, call upon it to do this work. No
other house can do it as we'll and so effective
ly as the Bible-House. How much it can do
may be inferred from the fact that it has the
confidence of the Protestant world. Ii has
the patronage of the whole American Church,
save aportion of the Baptist denomination.
1t has the market of the entire country.
How much it can hinder by mere in
difference may be gathered from the
limited success of Reeves Paragraph
Bible, first published in England in the be-
ginning of the present century, and repub-
llshed in cheaper form few years since by
the University of Oxford. That Bible 'snot
having been adopted by the societies through
which, by far, the largest number of English
Bibles is circulated, the advantages of this
form OF division into paragraphs were neither
sufficiently known nor duly appreciated"
Unless, therefore, this work is undertaken
and done by these great societies, what was
said fifteen years ago must continue to be
true:-'' There is no such thing as readable
Bible"

Camp Life at ThOmpson's Point.

~AIu anu IOmauLIC pIaCes -. -
ing to be more sought by those who have
a week or so to spend in recreation, your
correspondent, after week spent in camp
on Thompson's Point in Charlotte, pre-
sumed that partial description of our
camping ground might not be uninterest-
ing to a portion of your readers at least.
Our company consisted of about dozen
persons, from this and the adjoining town
of Ferrisburg, and on Monday morning,
the Sth inst, with all the necessaries and
many of the luxuries for camp life, we
started for our camping ground.
Thompson's Point is about one and a
half miles long, extending it's extreme
point into the lake to within one and
half miles of Split Rock, in New York.
The view, as we drive on to the point is
unsurpassed, in this region at least. The
road now winding along rocky ledge,
covered with evergreens, now emerging
abruptly into a grassy plain, sloping
now and then glimpse through the tim
Der land on the north, and the bold pro-
montory on the extreme end of the point,
with its clumps and groves Of cedar and
sentinel looking Norway pines; all form
eu pictures, the beauties OF which L Will
leave for an ADLER pen than mine to des-
cribe.
Arriving at the Point, we found the
grove dotted with some five or six tents,
and the Stars and Stripes waving in the
air Among the intelligent and refined
occupants Of the tents already pitched,
were Col. French & Son of Boston, G.. c..
Hutohios ana wife of Bennington, O.

Judge Houghton of Bennington,

Root of Benin ngton, Miss Keep of Florida,
g. Alvord and wife of Rutland. Col. G.,
w. Hindes and Z. w. Taft of your city, I
am informed, have spent short time
here. We spent a week very pleasantly
in fishing and other amusement, and it
was with regret that we struck our tents
and dispersed. We do it with the hope
that we shall be wise enough to try camp
life at least once year. l will add that
just before we left a company from your
city, consisting of W. w. Ray and wife,
J. G. Hindes and wife, and T. A. Vince
lock and wife, arrived upon the ground
and pitched their tents. D. W.. II.
