DANCING AT HoME.-Henry Ward
Beecher took occasion in a recent
sermon on recreation and amusements
in the home circle as being healthy and
natural, and We append what he said
about dancing:
Some persons, when they join a
church, think they must pull all the
mirth and glee and music out of their
lives. Don't do it. If a love song
ripples up to the surface of your heart,
sing it! sing it! Don't let it die. My
second mother, for 1 remember no
other-was my ideal of gentleness,
propriety and elegance. She Was not,
however, very demonstrative. She
used before marriage to be quite belle,
and was often known to trip the light
fantastic toe. One evening, as nv
father played tune on the violin, my
mother rose and in the most graceful
manner to conceive commenced to dance
around the room. I didn't know what
to make of 1t. I was speechless with
CONSERVATION and delight. My father
looked on in surprise. Never in the
whole course of my life had I known
, 1872-02-05

such thing attempted in my farther's
house. It was delicious, and l got .
lesson then which has lasted me ever
since. think to this day if my mother
had danced oftener and used the cate
chism less it would have been better
for us all. If you have a talent for
music, cultivate it; for dancing, culti-
vate it; what ever gifts God hss given
YOU. make the most of them, whether
of voice, foot or eye.

Rings in my ears forever;

Perchance the prize were not worth the pain
Perchance the fretting aud wasting Of brain

The tender voice replied,
"Abide thou and endeavor"
"Strive, endcavor; it profits more

New States and Territories.

A Washington correspondent says
that we are promised three new States
and two new Territories, exclusive of
the Territory of st. Domingo-a job
which is not dead but sleepeth. For
the most important of the new States
the State of Utah-no bill has yet been
introduced; but it is generally under
stood that the admission of the Terrific
nv into the Union as a State under the
terms indicated by Delegate Hooper
some time ago will come up early in the
session. The other Territories seeking
admission are Colorado and New Mex
leo. In the latter case the title of the
bill now before the House declares that
the new State is to be called the State
of Lincoln, while in the bill itself it is
designated as the State of New Mexico.
States of late years have been so fire.
quently added to that galaxy of stars of
which we hear SO much that he must
indeed be a sufficiently wise man to
know his own father who can tell to a
certainty the number of States in the
Union. Almost any one who is invest
ed with the birthright of American citi-
zenship can remember when they coun-
ted only thirty-seven, with chance Of
being increased to forty before the end
of the year.
Then there are to be the new Terrific
ries of Pembina and Oklahoma, besides
nobody knows how many similar
schemes before the session shall have
dragged its long length along to a close.
Mr.. Armstrong, the Delegate from Da-
kota, has bethought himself of the ne
cessity of introducing "a bill to estab-
lish the Territory of Pembina and pro-
vide temporary government therefor. "
Pembina is, or is to be, country on
the Red River of the North, to extend
from Minnesota to Montana, and from
the forty-sixth to the forty-ninth degree
of North latitude. The Pembina busi-
ness seems fair enough, and the new
Territorial Government, it is said, is
desired by the people of that part of
Dakota, while the Red River people are
equally anxious for it, because they
think it will give the United States an
opportunity to "slop over" into the
British possessions.
The proposed new Territory of Okla
homa will be only reorganization of
the Indian Territory. AS the Indian
possessions between Kansas and Texas
are at present constituted, there is a
want of governmental machinery for the
assistance or guidance of the native
races, and as the tribal relation has been
almost obliterated, the ordinary Terri
torial form Of government can be ap-
piled with profit to this as well as other
Territories. Oklahoma is to have a
Governor, to be appointed by the Pres
ident in the customary way, and to be
allowed a Delegate in Congress, aud the
other adjuncts of Territory. If the
bill passes. we may soon see the specta-

tive part in the speech-making of the

DoN'T ADVERTISE do it. Don t
advertise your business; it's paying out
money to accommodate other people; if
they want to buy your goods, let them
hunt you up.
Don't advertise, for it gets your name
abroad, and you are apt to be flooded
with circulars from business houses,
and to be bored with drummers " from
the wholesale establishments, all of
which also results in soliciting your Or
der for new goods, and money to pay
for them, which is very annoying to one
of dyspeptic temperament.
Don't advertise, for it brings people
in from the country, Country folks, you
know, are of an enquiring turn of
mind.) and they will ask you many as
tonishing questions about prices, try
your temper with showing them goods,
and even vex you with the request to
tie them up; which puts you at an addi-
tional trouble of buying more.
Don't advertise; it gives people abroad
knowledge of your town. and they
come and settle in it; it will grow, and
other business will be induced to come
in and thus increase your competition.
In short, if you would have quiet
town, not too large; if you would not be
harassed by multitudinous cares and
perplexities of business; if you would
avoid being bothered with paying for
and losing time to read a great cumber-
some newspaper, just remain quiet;
don't let the people know five miles
away where you are, nor what you are
doing, and you will be severelylet alone
to enjoy the bliss of undisturbed repose.

From the Now York Evening Post.l
Fifty years Of blight snd.bloom,
Fifty years of summer weather,
Fifty years Of winters gloom,
We have travelled on together,
Trough lifc's joy and through its sorrow-
Joy today and grief tomorrow.
Fifty years Ehow long my love
Then your cheeks were like the roses;
Yet He knows who rules above,
Every year its charm discloses,
Now upon the brow do cluster
Asphodels Of fadeless lustre.
Fifty years, with soul of truth,
Thou hast walked, dear wife, beside me,
From the spring-time of your youth
Faithful still whate'er betide me,
Yet the poet doubling human,
Writes that Frailty g name is woman"
Fifty years . world has seen
Revolutions aud convulsions;
Yet thy love hath faithful been
Through reverses and repulsions.
Like flower in shaded by-ways-
Like a tree on sunny highways.
Fifty years-a row of graves
Yonder where the hills are parted
Tells how sorrows widest waves
Left US lone and broken-hearted.
Yet, dear wife, the balm of healing
Poured from out thy heart of feeling.
Wife, dear wife, the way is short;
Down the hill the road is winding;
Soon we'll reach the last great port,
Ears grow dull and eyes are binding.
Soon our lives will be a shadow
Like the cloud wing on the meadow.
Grant, o God that down the aisles
Where the twilight folds together,
may have her gentle smiles
Lighting me like sunny weather,
Till the curtain falling round us
Seals in heaven the love that bound US,

ALL ABOUT CoFFEE.-1n the following
We find some very useful hints on using
coffee-only one thing we will add,
never use ground, Drowned, or prepar-
ed Coffee" for there is room for decep-
ton that ought not to be risked.
Java coffee has large, full yellow
berry, while that of the R % is smaller,
and greenish tinge. The difference in
essential properties is derived from the
difference in climate, that of Java re-
tanning the bean to ripen more perfectly
than it is left to do in Brazil, where it is
raised chiefly by unskilled slave labor
The best coffee for farmers is made by
mixing the two-Java affords the most
fragrance, and the Rio the most stimu-
liant and protection against chillness and
damps. Very much depends upon the
parching of coffee. This should be done
slowly at first to expel all the moisture,
and rapidly at last, stirring it constantly
so that it will be uniformly Drowned,
and not burned in the least. When it
has an oily appearance, and is of light
brown color, it should be removed at
once from the fire and put into a close
vessel.
We have tried great many ways of
making coffee pots; but for family use
we have never found anything better
than a good block tin pot, and the white
of an egg to clear the beverage. We
grind two tablespoonfuls to a person,
put it into pot, and add the white of
an egg and sufficient cold water to mois-
ten the whole, stir it together and let it
warm on the stove, then pour on boil
ing water and let it boil two or three
minutes only, unless those who drink it
have been exposed to cold and damp, or
are anticipating such exposure. In that
case it should remain over the fire fif-
teen or twenty minutes. long enough to
extract some of the bitter principle
which is of the nature of quinine in its
effect on the system.
Coffee grounds should never be allow
ed to stand in tin, but should be poure
out and the pot carefully cleansed as
soon as it is used, else the flavor of the
next beverage made in it will be impair
ed. Soft water is much preferable to
hard for making good coffee, as the min
eral salts in the latter often combine un-
pleasantly with the constituents of the
coffee, and give it an acid taste. There
is no reason why our tables should be
SO frequently disgraced with muddy,
bitter. riley coffee, when little care and
skill can furnish beverage aromatic,
exhilarating and iahtful.-Neu York
Tribune.
Loss OF WHEAT BY DRYNa.-We gave
our readers year ago the results of
series of experiments with corn, showing
that the average loss of weight by dry
ing, from the first of winter till the end
of the following summer, was about one
fifth, and that taking all the chances for
loss, including interest, it would gener-
ally be better for farmers (if they sell
at ally to sell unshelled corn from the
field at seventy-fve cents per bushsl,
than the following august or September
OF one dollar per bushel. More limited

experiments have been made with wheat
oy which we learn that the loss of weight
by drying is much less than with corn.
A bag of wheat hung up in drying at
mosphere on the first of September, lost
one-fourteenth in weight by the first Of
December. If after such experiments
have been sufficiently repeated to estab-
lish general rule, the results do not
greatly differ from these. then farmers
will learn the fact that it would be bet
ter to receive one dollar and thirty-two
cents per bushel for their wheat inearly
autumn, than to keep it till next June
and sell for dollar and half-on the
basis of seven per cent. interest for nine
months, and taking on account OF the
chances of loss by insects, rats, theft or
fire. These considerations furnish ad-
ditional reasons to farmers, to dispose
of their grain when there is free mar
ket for it, instead of waiting for high
er price, which they are uncertain OF re-
ceiving.-Co,.ntry Gent.

CIDER FOR CoLD.-Common sweet
cider boiled down to one-half, makes O
most excellent syrup for coughs and
colds for children-is pleasant to the
taste, and will keep for over year in a
cool cellar. In recovering from an ill
ness, the system has craving for some
pleasant acid drink. This is found in
cider which is placed on the fire as soon
as made, and allowed to boil, then cool
ed, put in casks, and kept in a cool Gel
lar.

PENNYnoYAL FOR FLEAs.-The oil OF
pennyroyal will drive these insects off;
but cheaper method, where the herb
flourishes, is to throw your dogs and
cats into decoction of it once a week
Now the herb, and scatter it in the beds
of pigs once month. have seen this
done for many years in succession.
| Where the herb cannot be got, the oil
may be procured. In this case, saturate
strings with it, and tie them around the
necks of dogs and cats; pour little on
the back and about the ears of hogs,
which you can do while they are feed
ing, without touching them.
By repeating this application every II
or IS days, the feas will flee from your
quadrupeds, to their relief and improve
ment, and your relief and comfort in
the house. Strings saturated with the
oil of pennyroyal, and tied around the
ne ks and tails of horses, will drive off
lice; the string should be saturated once

A SUBSTITUTE FOR CoFFEE.-From
chemical analysis it appears that the
seed of the asparagus when dried, parch-
ed and ground makes full favored cof-
fee, but little inferior to Mocha, con-
tanning in common with tea, and coffee,
the principal called tannin. Dry the
asparagus berries well, after being thor
oughly ripened, then rub them on a
sieve; thus the seeds are readily separa-
ted.-Jow1aal of Health.

screw with an eye or ring on its end;
this can be screwed into the end of the
handle of each new broom. 1t is hand
ier to hang up by than a string, though
the latter will do if always used. 1t is
bad for broom to leave it standing up
on the bush. If not hung up, always
set it away with the stick end down.
INDEL1BLE INK.-By placing piece
of caustic in the end of a quill, and
whittleing the side to point, any cloth
being FIRST slightly damp with water,
may be written on so indelibly that no
art can remove the color.
PROTECTION FROM DAMP WALLs.-Boil
one pound of powdered sulphur in two
quarts of water for half an hour. Ap-
ply with brush while still warm, and
you will prevent the damp and unwhole-
some oozing from the brick walls of
your workshops.
WATERY PoTAToEs.-If your potatoes
are watery, put piece of lime about as
large as hens egg in the pot, and boil
with them, and they will come out as
mealy as you please.
If brooms are wet in boiling suds
once week, they become very tough,
will not cut the carpet, last much Ion
ger, and always sweep like new broom.
WATERING TEAMS OFTEN.-Horses and
oxen at work need water often. The
plowman carries his jug of water, or
leaves his team to rest while he goes to
the house for drink. But the team
works harder than the driver, and prob
ably needs drink as often; yet many
teams are taken out early in the field,
where there is no water except in the
drivers jug, and work five or six hours
before they can get drop. Is it any
wonder that they are injured by drink
ing too much when they are led to the
spring at noon or evening ?-E1.
