The Best Way to Keep Potatoes

Potatoes should always be kept in
the dark Intelligent, rural I-ousekeep-
ers do not need to be told this; but
many others living in towns and cities,
should know that potatoes exposed to
the light for a day only, have their
flavor injured and the longer they are
exposed the worse they are. Never
use a greenish potato, as such tubers
are unfit for human food. When Irish
potatoes are removed from the cellar,
they should always be spread out thin
on the floor, in a cool building. If the
apartment is not dark, the patatoes
~i>as,ld he covered with boards, to eX-
clude the llgnG. IJis-eaeond Dractice,
also, to cover them with clean straw
or sawdust. The injury doHcte-pAta-
toes by the light, after they are car
ried from dark cellar, is the chief
reason why there is such a universal
complaint of poor potatoes in the
spring and during the forepart Of sum
mer. Every sort of vegetables tha
grow in the dark beneath the surface
Of the ground-should be stored in :
dark apartment; while those vegeta
bles and fruits which mature in tht
light, will ripen more satisfactorily
and develop a more luscious flavor, i
they are stored in light room.

More False PrOphets.

Apropos to the advent Of the new prophet
yclept Fisher in Australia, the London .Specta-
tor has some curious speculatiOns regarding re-
hgious movements. Fisher, il appears, Is the
romulgator of a creed which teaches that "every
person now alive is the reproduction or incarna-
ton OF some Biblical parsonage" Fisher himself
being an incarnation OF Jesus, and also of Da-
vid, and entitled in the latter capacity to have
a plurality OF wives. He has a band of loyal
followers, who give their daughters to him
as wives, and attack anybody whom he de-
nounces as the modern Ahab, Jezebel or Ju-
das. Reasoning from the amazing devotional
fervor and the gullibility of mankind in relig-
ious matter, the Spectator is moved to wonder
why some able and INSCRIPTIONS man does not
seize on some new idea which would make him
a second Mahomet and give him unlimited
power over thousands, perhaps millions, of the
human race; pointing to the huge and SUPER
stitious masses of Russia, to Australia and
especially to our own western population, as
most likely to receive such a man, as not only
a religious but civil ruler. The Spectator
betrays an amusing ignorance OF the Ameri-
can temper with the regard to religion, in
such speculation. Jonathan is OF all men
claims; most jealous Of these claims when
they assume civil authority. New sects spring
up like mushrooms, il is true, but they grow out
of the inherent desire of every man to throw off
old yOkes of creeds and find his own way to
heaven. Mormonism Is quoted as a significant
hint OF the power which q charlatan prophet
can cquire; but it is a curious fact that, while
the devOut, blind believers Of Joe Smith and
Young are recruits from Norway and England.
who sought political power outside OF the camps
of civilization, or room 10 indulge greater free
dom Of thought or latitude of action.-Nep York
