SIGNs FAIL. - Last Friday two
young ladies in this city, who believe
in signs, noticed rooster growing at
the kitchen door, and supposed of
course that they would have company
that day. Soon after one of them ac-
cidentally dropped the dish cloth,
which was, also, another sign for COM
pany. And during the day one of the
ladies went out of one door, and en-
tered the house by another, Three
such signs surely could not fail, and
they accordingly dressed themselves
to receive their company. At tea
time no visitors having arrived, the
conclusion was jumped at that they
would certainly put in an appearance
soon. But at 10 o'clock the fair be-
levers in signs were forced to think OF
the old maxim, that "all signs fail in
dry weather" .1

FIRE.-An alarm of fire was given
shortly after Z o'clock last night, caus,
ed by the burning of some rags be-
longing to one Bloomrosen, an enter
prising pcdler, which were stored in a
shed attached to III. Hyatt's building,
and occupied as dollar store by II.
II. Wittelshoffer. A large crowd soon
congregated, and the fire was soon cx-
tinguished. There was no need for
the services of the Fire Company, al
though those gallant boys were prompt
to the call, as they ever are. Mr.
Hayatt Immediately caused the rags
to be removed. 1t is supposed to be

A Young Lady Struck by Lightning While
Making Bread.

From the Dadbury, Conn.,, News, Aug. 23.l
The oppressive heat of last Wednesday
evening was relieved on Thursday morn
ing by thunder storm. The lightning
was not remarkably vived or prolonged,
excepting one flash, which was most in
tense, and which brought death and sor-
row to one home. The house struck was
that OF Ezra II. Stevens, in Middle dis
trict. Mr.. Stevens had driven into town
with his wife leaving his daughter. Mary
duties. He had reached his destination as
the awful shock came, and waiting few
moments tor the rain to abate drove back
home. Stabling his horse, he entered the
house. passed through to the milk room
and there found his daughter PROSTATE on
the floor, motionless in death. The neigh
bors were at once alarmed, and hurried in
to offer service. 1t was first believed that
she had suffered from fit, and means
were taken to restore her but upon the al
rival of DR.. w. G. Bennett, who happen
ed to be in the neighborhood, the true
cause Of her death was discovered. A
stroke of lightning had deprived her of
life, and she had lain where she fell about
three-quarters of an hour One hand was
pressed to the side of her face, but there
was no evidence of any pain, nor any
mark at first visible to indicate the cause
of her death. A portion of hair on the
back of her head was singed, there was a
| slight mark down her neck and over the
breast to the heart, where a small piece ol
skin was torn up; the inside of her cloth
ing was but slightly scorched; where the
bolt went off there is no mark to show
She was engaged preparing batch OF
bread when the fatal stroke was given
The room is small one, at the south
corner of the building. The lightning
struch the corner of the roof, broke one
shingle, made hole in the ceiling not
larger than a thimble, slightly scratched
the W all, as if a bullet had glanced there
lightly scorched the side Of pan, and
thence passed to her body. The evidence
of its entry is so slight that for some time
the attendants were unable to find it. Ar
apple tree standing at the corner was dis
covered on Saturday to have first received
the shock, few of the leaves and a small
branch burned.

Pure Water for Cows.

There is no doubt that impure water has
an injurious effect on the flavor of milk. 1t
has been found that the milk from cows
which were compelled to drink stagnant
water from ponds, when brought to the
cheese-factory was tainted, and gave bad
flavor to the whole making of cheese into
which it had entered. We have before us
letter from correspondent in Norway,
who speaks of the i'll effects resulting from
permitting cows to feed on the litter thrown
out from horse stables-a practice too COM
mon in that country. Not only was the
milk tainted, but the butter and cheese
made therefrom had al unpleasant taste
and smell, 1t is well-kpown that the wild
garlic eaten by cows in Spring, lends its
peculiar flavor to the milk and butter yield
ed by them. In fact, nothing can be more
sensitive to ill-tlavored substances eaten or
drunk by the cows, than is the milk or but
ter. The use of stagnant or impure water
should then be scrupulouSly avoided, and if
no other source of pure water is possible,
a sufficient quantity should be pumped for
cows twice a day at least. There is no
more striking Illustration OF the facts above
noted than the unpleasant taste of milk
from cows fed on the waste Of distlleries,
experienced by one used to the milk of
farm and obliged to sojourn In a city

A Dog Story.

1t is Very refreshing when a bit OF whole
some sentiment finds its way into law
court Such an instance occurred lately
at the summer assizes held at Croydon,
England. 1t appeared that Mrs. Reed
mad two years ago presented to Lady
NelWSn Il Newfoundland dog, and that an
animal very similar to this had been found
laSt April by gentleman named Booth,
and appropriated by him under the impress
sion that it was 4 dog he had lost in 1867

authority in ''the fancy" stated that the
dog was only two years old, but 4 far

The Waste of Liquid Manure.

Very few barns or barn-yards are so ar
ranged as to save tue liquid manure. The
loss resulting from such IL want of proper
arrangement is a serious one, more so than
some farmers would imagine. Ia the first
place, the quantity of liquid matter which
might be saved from pair of horses and a
half dozen cows amounts to $4,000
pounds yearly. This is equal to about 10,
900 gallons, which, diluted with an equal
quantity of water, would furnish each year
a dressing of 1000 gallons per acre to
twenty acres of land. Fermenting liquid
manure needs this addition of water for
the purpose OF retaining the ammonia
which would otherwise pass off and be lost.
The solid matter contained in the above
quantity of liquid is equal to nearly three
tons, and is worth as much as the best
guano. The money value would therefore
be about $200-an amount that is well
worth saving. Much less than this amount
would make the drains and tank required
to save the manure, so that the outlay
would be more than repaid the first year.
Or, II proper absorbents were freely used,
the whole of the liquids might be saved
without any outlay at all.
