generally distinguishes the New England
bar, was comparatively unknown. Moth

such wranglings, indeed, as would now
be termed "contempt Of court were they
TO occur only between the lawyers them
selves On one occasion Judge Turner,
who was then plain Esquire had ad-
dressed sound argument to the court
and sat down. The Judge, who chose to
argue the question rather than decide II
at once, replied in . feeble argument,
which the lawyer in his turn demolished.
The Judge rejoined by repeating, with
out any material variation, his first reply,
and then ''closed the pleadings' by an ad-
verse decision.
"Your Honor's two arguments" said
Turner, addressing himself partly to the
Court and partly to the bar, remind me

necticut, being one evening at party,
was greatly at loss for something TO say.
At length che ventured to inquire OF a
gentleman who sat near her, whether his
mother had any children. The gentlems n
politely pointed out the absurdlty OF her

The Scranton (Pa) Spectator gives
the particulars of the horrible death OF
two young girls, caused by the expiosio n
of kerosene oil. "The victims were
daughters of Mr.. Edward Heiser, residing
several miles west Of Churchviiie. The
elder alone was burned by the explosion,
and the flames were communicated TO the
younger while trying to save her sister.
The Younger after proceeding some dis.
lance in the direction in which they ran,
her clothes being almost If not wholly
burnt from her body, returned to the
house to procurea dress, which she car
ried in her hand to Mr.. Lightner's, while
the elder bore the entire distance the only
member of the family present when the
accident occurred, child 10 months old,
and on reaching Mr. Lightner's, where
also was her father, she threw her arms
about her fathers neck, her first words
being: Were burned tn death, but we
have saved the baby The child escaped
without injury"
The eldest daughter, aged ID years, Of
Mr.. Staub, editor of the Fort Madison,
Iowa, Democrat, was on visit TO her
grandfather, near West Point, in Lee
county. A son of the grandparents hap
pened to have gun in his hand. His
mother requested him TO take 1t out OF
doors. and cautioned him TO Re careful
with It. He replied that it was not loaded.
Upon going out OF doors, he found his
little niece, playfully pointed the gun at
her, and snapped it, when it was dis
charged. The contents entered the fore
head and temple Of the girl, killing her
almost instantly.

A Powerful Insect,

The tendency of soldiers to grotesque
exaggeration is well illustrated by the re-
marx of one of them concerning that
greatest pest of the camp which the die.
tionaries denominate "small insect OF
the genus pedicMus" presume every
army in history has been annoyed by this
atomy, but think none suffered from it
and at the same time made it a subject of
habitual Jest before the armies OF our
war. AS in the case of every other source
of vexation, the men grumbled at it, phi
losophized over it, and laughed at 1t.

nothing about them," heard cry joker

Business Tact Ia Farming.

A CERTAIN business tact, writes the
author of My Farm at Ed3eaoood, Is
large helper to whoever would sue.
cessfnliyt engage in agricultural pursuits.
1t implies and demands adaptation OF
crops to toils, exposure, and the market
wants. 1t is eminently opposed to the
drowsiness in which good many honest
country hvers are apt 10 indulge. Ii
reckons time at its full value; it does not
long lean on hoe handle for gossip. The
farmer VINO turns his capital very slowly,
and onlyonce In the year, is not apt to
be quicARned into business ways and
methods, The retired trsder, who plants
himself tome day beside him, bringing
his old prompt habits of the counter, will
very liklly, IL a shrewd observer, out
match him in corn crop, outmatch him
IN pork, outmatch him In everything, II
the years balance were struck and shown.
Ard all this in spite of the traders COM
paratiye inexperience, and by reason only
of his superior business tact. The finest
shows of fruit ut the autumn fairs, ex
cepting always those Of the protested
nurserymen, are made, in three cases out
of FIVE by mechanics or by business men,
who hive brought to this little episode in
their life the nethodical habits and the
observance Of details which govern their
ordinary business duties Not being in
the way of leaving book accounts in stock
on hand, to take care OF themselves, they
are no more inclined TO leave an invest

Gently smiled at their inexperience in
tillsge, and is COMPOUNDED by the results,
win loosely attribute them all to lavish
and thriftless expenditure ofmoney. But
the conclusion is neither logical nor war
ranted, in the majority Of instances, by the
facts. No superior fruit can be grown
without labor and extreme care, and ii
these be controlled by business system,
they will be far more economically be-
| stoved than when subject tn no order In
their application. From beginning to end
there has been no business forecast Of the

even this scanty aim, in sny other calling
Of life. With a respectable crop, insured
by only. moderate amount o. attention
and acti,ity, the temptation TO a lazy in

What We Eat without Knowing.

Some Southerner on his summer tour
to the North has amused himself by fol-
lowing up the large shipments OF white
clay, or s'kaolin," which comes from the
deposit near Augusta, Georgia, and has

The clay Is very fine in grain, free from

to be valuable In the manufacture of vari-
ous kinds Of earthen ware. but % tho tons
