al Society, at the recent session o
that society, in Philadelphia
Mark the amazing increase of The
small fruits, Take, TOR instance, tn,
strawberry. Within the memory o
many OF TINS assembly, we were de
pendent almost wholly upon the wild
species o. the field, or to the few which
had been tranSplanted to our gardens
1t is only about thirty Yeas since tho
first attempt, we believe, was made OF
this continent TO raise from seed new
and improved riety-thanks TO The
enterprise Of Mr. llovey, which gave
us a iruit which has stood the test Ton
4 tull generation ct men. Compare the
small, dry, seedy, red and white wood

which have come to notice in our day
Not only have the latter increased to
hundreds OF varieties within this time
but the quantity produced is in a still!
greater ratio. " hat would our faith.

ago the cultivation OF this fruit had
not commenced, and from whence
during the present season, three mill

northern markets.
Thirty years ago we possessed Only
two good varieties OF theraspbelry, TIC

have many rev kinds, aud the produce

Inc Ingenious methods OF gathering,
preserving, and packing OF fruits, and

most important advances in this new

boy was set to work. A few DAYS la.
ter 4 call was made on the boys in the
store tor some one to stay all night.
The quick response OF the lad contrast
ed well with the reluctance of others.
In the middle of the night the mcr-
chant looked in to see II all was right
in the store, anil presently discovered
his youthful protege busy scissoring la
bells. What are yoa doing?' said he;
Il did not tell You to work nights
Il know you did not tell me so, but l
thought might rs well bc doing some
thing In the morning the cashier
got orders 10 double that boys wages,
tor he is willing" Only a few weeks
elapsed before show of wild beasts
passed through the streets, and very
naturally Ill hands in the store rushed
to witness the spectacle. a thief saw
his chance and entered at rear door
to seize something but IN a twinkling
found himself firmly ciutched hy the
liminutive clerk aforesaid, and after 4
struggle WAS captured. Not only was
4 robbery prevented, bit valuable ar
ticles taken from other stores were re-
covered. When asked Ivy the mcr-
chant why he staid behind to watch
when all others quit work, the reply
was, "i on told me never to leave the
store when others were absent, and
thought Id stay" Orders were iinme
ditateiy given once more: Double that
boys wages; he is willing ard taiifah"
To-day that boy is receiving salary
OF $500, and next January will be-
come a member OF the firm.

How Some Of Our Merchants

A few years ago, a large drug firm
in this city advertised fora boy. Next
day the store was throngcd with aprli-
cants, among them a queer. cooking lit
tie fellow, accompanied by a woman,
who proved TO be his aunt, in lieu OF
taithlcss parents, by whom he had been
abandoned Looking at this small
wait, the merchant IN the storcpromptly
said: Cant take him; places all FULL;
besides, he's too small" III know he's

and faithful. There was twinkle in
the boys eyes which male the mer-
chant think again. A partner in the
firm volunteered to remark that he
"did not sec what they wanted OF sucl,

When the company learned Of their
loss they at once set active measures
atoot to capture Bear, but failed
Lately however, he has sent another
letter to the Brownsville Advertiser.
In it Bear states that losses in gamb-
ling led him to commit the theft. He
states that one OF the packages he stole
contained $500 and writes:

fail; and now comes the most incredi-
Bile part OF my statement. The pack

It is an old notion but a fool
ish one that it is better to sleep
in u cold room than in a moder-
ately warm one. Given good
ventilation, and a fire in a
sleeping room is healthy.
There is no gain in the chilli
ness of dressing and undressing
in temperature near the freezing
point, but the shock to the sys-
tenn is posi- lively injurious.
Nor is the ventilation of an open
chamber window in cold wealth
er 50 good a thing as some
think. Ventilation from anoth-
er room, through a door stand
ing ajar, is preferable The cx-
posture from sudden night
changes in temperature make
the open window unsafe with
even strong people; with feeble
people it is dangerous.

It is bad policy to move a
team out Of its natural gait, cs-
pecially with a load. 1t is lar
better to put on a full load, and
even a little more, and give the
horses their own time for NOV
ing it to its place Of destination,
than to make two loads Of it and
hurry them. There is a certain
degree of rapidity or action pc
culiar to the muscles OF each
class Of animals, and indeed to
each individual animal, and if
they are pressed beyond this,
fatigue follows quickly, while
within this limit great endur-
ance is witnessed. TO test this,
let a man attempt to move his
arms as rapidly as a bird does
its wings, or his legs in walking
as rapidly as a little boy, and
see how greatly he will become
exhausted. This will convince
him OF the folly of attempting to
make his heavy draft horse
move with the rapidly Of the po-
ny or fast trottcr. The law OF
nature is that heavy bodies
move slow. North Western
