BUFFALO BILL IN CLEvELAND.-HE
Ours THE HEART OUT OF A BAsswooD
sLo. buffalo Bill, !" the original, gen.
uine bill, who has lifted more hair,
wiped out more redskins, killed more
grizzlies, and raised more particular mis-
chief generally upon the plains than any
other man. according to Ned Buntline,
passed through this city on Friday last,
on his way East. Buffalo Bill only stop
ped in this city long enough to corral
sufficient provisions at the depot dining
hall to last him to Buffalo He was at
tired in the usual buckskin suit so often
described in ten cent works of fiction
and created much CONSERVATION among
the sable walters by eating his beef en-
tirely raw and cutting his bread with
bowie knife that he had twisted around
among the vitals of scores of Indians, as
the notches ON the handle prove He
wore gray shirt, upon which flashed
the fifty cent solitaire that Alexis gave
him for his services in the recent buffa-
10 hunt, that has flooded the country
with cheap meat, and nearly ruined the
butchers. While leisurely awaiting the
departure Of the Eastern express, .'Bill'
amused himself by throwing his railroad
ticket in the air, and shooting it full of
holes with his revolver, often putting six
holes through the same before it fell to
the ground. While thus engaged to-
bacco dealer came into the depot, bring
ing large wooden Indian which he in
tended to express to gainesville for CT
gar dealers sign. No sooner did Buffa-
10 Bill see the blood-thirsty demon of
the forest than change swept over his
countenance like cyclone over duck
pond. Giving an ear piercing yell that
would have delighted timid young ladies
who want to wear ear rings but dare not
have their ears pierced by the ordinary
means, William gave a leap seventeen
feet into the air and came down on the
whitewood savage like a thousand of
brick; quicker than the lightning's flash
he stabbed the unsuspecting Indian to
the heart, and before the latter could use
the tomahaWk that is immovably fixed
in his hand he was cut into mincemeat,
and his enemy waved aloft the wooden
top knot that had decorated his finely
carved head The bystanders stood
aghast at the fearful tragedy, and the
train moving off at that moment Buffalo
Bill stepped on board as calm as ever
saying as he removed the slivers from
the knife, Waugh another red devi

airy. But there certainly is such thing
in the churches By churchianity we
mean believing in, and serving, and de-
pending on Jesus Christ. The essence
of Jesuitism is that it substitutes a
church for Christ. There is Protestant
as well as Roman Catholic Jesuitism.
And the ministry are in danger Of de-
veloping churchianity at the expense Of
christianity whenever they dwell much
on the church and say little about Christ
when they place secular and church work
in contrast, and treat the one as selfish
and the other as religious; when they
exhort only to mission work, and tract
distribution, and prayer meetings, and
overlook the duty of industry, applica-
ton, and energy in the shop, the store,
and the market; when they treat the
Sabbath as the only Lord day and leave
it to be implied that the other six belong
to ourselves when they dwell overmuch
on the sacredness of the temple and leave
us to forget that since God is everywhere
all ground is holy ground.
There is no danger that we shall work
too much for Christ in the church but
there is a great deal of danger that we
shall work too little for him in it. The
apostle bids us as we have opportunity
do good unto all men. 1t is not the
church alone which affords us the oppor-
tunity. God affords it to us also in ways
innumerable in our secular avocations.
He who preached the sermon on the
Mount also fed five thousand by the sea
of Galilee, and healed the sick that sought
his touch. The farmer and the physician
may follow Christ in their avocations as
truly as the minister in his. tits chris
tian to feed the hungry and to heal the
sick as we'll as to preach the gospel,
much as the latter work excels in impor-
lance the former. For example, the far
mer who feeds by the product of his farm
a thousand mouths may be doing as much
for humanity as the philanthropist who
opens soup house. 1t is true that the
motive of the one may be money. So
the motive of the other may be vanity.
But if each works in the spirit of Christ
and for the love he bears to Christ his
work is christian. Faust and Gluten
berg did hardly less for the reformation
than Martin Luther. Their work was
christian in its results as well as his, tho
their motives may not have BEEN
The right to read the bible was barren
right until there were printed bibles to
read. And yet the first printing of bi.
bles was purely commercial speculation
The ancient manuscripts were initiated
with care. The full price of manuscripts
was at first charged for them. And il
was not until the multiplied copies anG
lowering prices disclosed the invention
that this phase of the speculation wa:
abandoned. The inventor of the sewing
machine has done more for the elevation
of woman than the philosophers who hav,
undertaken to fix her place, or the agi
tators who have undertaken to widen it
Columbus was missionary, though h
did not know it. 1t is difficult to con
ceive how Mr.. Morse could have render
ed Christ in humanity and greater ser
vice than he has rendered by his inven
ton of the telegraph.

SHoEING HoRsEs.-The Mirror and
Farmer truly says: at is almost impos-
sible to get horses shod without having
the frogs cut away. All veterinary sur
geons, all horsemen, all leading black
smiths, agree that the frog should not
be pared one particle-not even trimed.
No matter how pliable and soft the frog
is, cut it away smooth on all sides, and
in two days it will be dry and hard as a
chip. You might as we'll cut off the
leaves of trees, and expect them to -four
ish, as to pare away the frog and have a
healthy foot. The rough, spongy part of
the frog is to the foot what leaves are to
the trees-the lungs. Never have red
hot shoe put upon the foot to burn it
level. If you can find a blacksmith that
is mechanic enough to level the foot
without a red-hot iron, employ him.
The burning process deadens the hoof
and tends tie contract it. If you do not
think so, try the red-hot iron poker on
your finger nail, and see if it will not
affect the growth of that.

they eat until the turnips came It was
found to interfere materially with the
welfare of the cattle and the product of
the milk, and the hour of feeding roots
was changed. The plan of feeding meal
at once on tying up the cattle in the af.
ternoon, followed by roots and then hay,
proves to be more satisfactory. It may
be mentioned that peck of turnips each,
fed in this way, has no unpleasant effect
on the flavor Of the milk, the same being
thoroughly cooled and aerated before
closing the cans for transportation

REGULARITY IN FEEDING Stock
The Mirror and Farmer mentions the
case of a eighbor who last winter STALL
fed yoke of oxen, and which, after con-
Stunning 1000 pounds of corn meal and
all the good hay they wanted, were
found to have gained just twenty pounds.
Allusion is also made to other farmers
whose success was more satisfactory, and
one of the chief reasons of this is the
fact that they fed regularly. This is a
matter of more Importance than may
at first sight appear. 1t has been said
that the appetite of a COW or sheep is a
perfect chronometer. They know when
feeding time comes, and become restless
and uneasy if the feeding does not pro-
coed as usual. This restlessness is unfa-
vorable to thrift Absolute quiet and con-
tentment are essential to the most rapid
growth. When the feeding-time comes
the regular rations should be given with
out delay, and with as little commotion
as may be. 1t is not only necessary to
observe regularity, but the routine itself
should be such as not to interfere with
the quiet of the stock A well known
farmer says that in the management Of
his herd of dairy cows he practiced for a
time feeding roots at night after milk
ing. The cows were fed at 3 o'clock,
and after eating two hours were MIXED,
and the turnips were cut in the barn
where the stable is situated, and fed te
them just at night. 1t was found that
as the time for the turnips approached
the COWS were all on tip-toe of expecta-
ton, watching every movement, and ex
hibiting the greatest eagerness and i'm
patience. If barn door moved they
looked around anxiously for the expect
ed treat. This would begin more thar
an hour before the regular time for feed
ing roots, and if basket full wer,
! brought into the barn, no more hay would

The Ohio Farmer thinks it important
to feed some straw every winter, as it
seems to have beneficial effect on most
animals; it also thinks horses not at

PREPARING MEAL FOR Fowls
Dough for poultry is commonly made too
thin. Many young chickens that might
live if fed nationally, die because obliged
to swallow more water with their grain
than they need. In case Of grown fowls,
giving meal too wet will not, of course
prove fatal but they will thrive better if
it is mixed so as to crumble. The food is
moistened and partly macerated while
in the crop by the secretions from the
glands. 1t passes next, little at a time,
into the grovenbicalus. a pouch formed
by the expansion of the passage between
the crop and gizzard. In this organ adj
ditional digestive juices are secreted,
as we'll as in the gizzard and still fur
Their on. Now, when the grain contains
too much water before it is fed, the solv-
ents prepared by the digestive organs
are diluted and impaired. In ell ami
mails, when healthy, thirst is regulated
with wonderful nicely by the needs of
the system. Hence, if constantly sup
piled with water, separate from their
food, they will drink only what is nee
essary, and in mixing dough it is better
to be on the safe side.-Nsrror and
