What a Half Acre VIII Do.

A shoe maker over in jersey bought
a half acre lot. lie was fond of fruit ard
read the papers. The soil was wet clay,
and he selected fruit to the climate. lie
built house and put his land in condi-
ton to produce fruit. He had no ma
nure but the droppings of the street cat
tie. In hIs leisure he brought from the
woods, bark, rotten wood, moss, and leaf
mold. which he mixed with the soil three
feet deep. !.
This was done by degrees. and rs fast
as the ground was prepared he planted
fruit. He became 80 interested and sue
ccssful that he retired from his cObler's
bench. | was his neighbOr, and knew
him intimately. Ills half acre supports
ed himself alldwifc omfortably-alniost
in elegance. She had 10 servant, and
had plenty of time to cultivate flowers:
Strangers Inquired about their beautl-
full home. Isabella grapes and common
currants formed the bulk his fruits.
With better selection his income would
have been larger. Others had the same
success on small pieces of ground. Ono
knew who supported his family on an
acre. Half was in grapes, the crop OF
which in one season sold for $500, and
had no bills to pay. If contraction
brings success. let us know it and prae-
tice it.-N. \. Tribune.

ton of young ladies', both solid anu orna-

down in our schedule is full and compfehcn-
3siye, but not more extended than the pre-
issent times demand of all who would enjoy
the benefits and distinctions OF a finished ed
ucatiOn. 1t will be our aim TO train the mind
to habits of patient and independent thought
and to excite in the pupil that spirit OF self
reliance which will be her best security Tor
future usefulness and Independence. super
flcialness in study will be utterly discarded
and ever reminding the pupil that there Is
4" no royal road to learning, the wafchword
of the Institute will be "hard work, by
which we feel assured the highest results of
education can only be attained. More than
ordinary attention Is paid to the Fine Arts.
