SAVE THE APPLEs.-The scarcity and
high price of genuine cider vinegar makes
1t always profitable article of manufac-
ture on farms which possess an orchard,
as every farmer should. At this season
apples commence to fall from the trees.
and the quantity that might be saved in
few minutes work each day is worth con-
sideration- A small cider mill and press
may now be purchased for ten dollars and
upwards, and where there are twenty
trees In an orchard, the amount saved by
its use the first year would equal its cost.
After every high wind sufficient apples
might be gathered to make grinding.
the juice might be turned into cask, and
occasional additions to it, until it is filed.

How to See Down a Well.

1t is not generally known, says the
Lancaster (Pa.) Hateuigencer, how easy a
matter it is to explore the bottom of a
cistern or pond of water. by the use of a
common mirror When the sun is shin
ing brightly, hold mirror so that the re-
fiectcd rays of light will fall into the wa
ter A bright spot will be seen at the
bottom, SO light as to show the smallest
objects plainly. By this means we have
examined bottoms of wells fifty feet deep
when half full or more of water. The
smallest straw or other object can be
plainly seen from the surface. In the
same way one can examine the bottoms of
ponds or rivers, if the water be somewhat
clear and free from drift, and not agita-
ted by winds or rapid motion. If a we'll
or cistern be under cover, or shaded bv a
building so that the sunlight will not fall
near the opening, it is only necessary to
smploy two mirrors, using one to reflect
the light to the opening, and another to
reflect it down into the water. Light may
oe tnToWn H1ty or hundred yards TO the
precise spot desirable, then downwards.
We have used the mirror with success to
reflect light around the house to shaded
well, and also to carry it from south
window through two rooms, and then in
to cistern on the north side of the house
Half dozen reflections of light may be
made, though each mirror diminishes the
brilliancy of the light. Let any one ia
miliar with the method, try it; and he
will not only find it useful, but very
pleasant experiment. 1t will perhaps re-
veal mass of sediment at the bottom of
the we'll that has been little thought of
but which may have been a frightful
source of disease, by its decay in the water

It's as true of advertising as anything
else in the world-if it is worth doing at
all, it is worth doing well.
You can't eat enough in week to last
whole year, and you can't advertise on
that plan either.
A large advertisement once, and then
discontinued, creates the impression that
the man has fizzled.
Injudicious advertising is like fishing
where there is no fish. You need 10 let
the lines fall in the right place.

So all these nations joined in making
war upon the United States. They swooped
down upon our coasts and landed with
out opposition, forthese exposed portions
of our unhappy country were absolutely
deserted The President was afraid to
cali away the army from Kansas at first.
for fear the outraged people upon the
plains would come East in spite of him.
But at last he did summon the army to
his aid, and it moved to meet the enemy.
1t was too late. Before the troons
reached Cincinnati, the foreigners had
seized Washington and all the country
east Of the Ohio, and had hung the Presi-
dent, the Cabinet, and every member of
Congress. The army disbanded in alarm,
and the invaders moved to the far West.
