GRATING WAx-A recipe for making
grating wax, from practical nursery
man, is: Resin, six pounds; beeswax,
one pound; tallow, one pound; melt
and work until cold. This is to be
used warm, when working in the house.
For outdoor work, Mr. J. j. Thomas
recommends the same formula, except
using hnseed oil. one pint, instead OF
the tlllow. Fer outdoor work, a good
wax is made by using one or two pounds
less of resin, one-half to one pound
more of beeswa1, and one and one-hall
pints of linseed oil to be melted, made
in mass, and applied by hand.

A Sad Affair.

A correspondent writes from Flint,
Michigan A sad affair occurred in the
town of Thetford, which has thus ia,
resulted in the death of three sons of
MIR. David Case, of that township. 1t
appears that these three boys, the eld-
est being about twenty-five years OF
age, In company with two other young
men, while at work together in the
field, discovered plant which was sup
posed and taken by them to be what
is known as sweet cicely, which is a
leafy plant of the genus "Osmorrhiza, y
found In our woods and fields, having a
branching, tieshy root of an agreeable
spicy flavor, and which was dug from
the ground and eaten of by the
whole party, but which proved to
be a poisonous plant known as
wild parsnip." At the time of writing
nothing Is known to your correspondent
as to how soon the poisonous effects
were made manifest, except that two of
the party (whose names have been
unable to learn) after partaking retain
ed sufficient strength to reach their
home, where their father after hearing
their story. induced them to swallow a
qudutlty ol tOpaccO, causing them 10
vomit freely, and which had the effect
to remove the poison from their
stomachs. Upon repairing to the field
they found the three brothers quite
dead. The necessary restoratives were
Immediately applied to the other two
who still retained a spark of life, and it
is hoped that with proper care they
may be restored again to health. The
whole community is shrouded with
gloom by this affair, and the heartfelt
sympathies of all are extended to the
parents who have been SO terribly and
suddenly afflicted.

Johnny,s OpiniOn of GrandmOthers.

Grandmothers are very nice folks;
They beat all the aunts in creation,
They let chap do as he likes,
And don't worry about education
I'm sure / can't see it at all,
What fellow ever could do
For apples and pennies, and cakes,
without a grandmother or two.
Grandmothers speak softly to q mas
To LET a BOY have a good time;
Sometimes they will whisper, It's true,
I'other way when boy wants to climb.
Grandmothers have mullins for tea,
And pies, whole row in the cellar,
And they're apt. if they know in time,
To make chicken pies for a - Teller"
And if he is bad, now and then,
And makes great racketting noise,
They only look over their specs,
And say, 'Ah, these boys will be boysn
Life is only so short at the best
Let the children be happy to-day"
Then they look for while at the sky,
And the hills that are far, far away.
Quite often as twilight comes on,
Grandmothers sing hymns, very low,
To themselves, as they rock, by the fire,
About heaven, and when they shall go.
And then, boy stopping to think,
Will find hot tear in his eye,
TO know what will come at the last;
For grandmothers all have to die.
wish they could stay here and pray,
For boy needs their prayers ev'ry night
Some boys more than others, L s'pose
Such as I need wonderful sight

How the Magical Rise in Mining Stocks
Affected a Broken Bank.

from the San Francisco Chronicle, May j.
Among the most romantic and singu-
lar of the results of the mining fever
is that in connection with the banking
house of John Slime & Co., the an
nouncement of whose failure startled
the community few months ago. At
the time of the failure it was found
that the liabilities of the concern
amounted to 1925, 900, and to meet this
large amount there was naught but the
pitlful sum of $50, 900 in coin and lot
of mining stock, the value of which was
then SO insignificant that some of the
creditors contemptuously referred to it
as a odd wildcat" But truth
crushed to earth will rise again and so
will mining stocks-particularly on oc-
caslons like the present. And that poor
despised mining stock has
wrought miracles in this case.
A large portion of the stock
was Exchequer, which was then worth
about IS per share. Pending the set
Element of the banks affairs, the stocks
were kept locked up, and behold the
results; On Monday, Exchequer was
sold at 500 per share-just twenty
times the value it possessed when the
failure was announced. The other
stocks of the bank have appreciated in
an equally astounding manner, and in
consequence the affairs Of the broken
bank have been lifted out OF the shad-
owy depths of poverty and placed high
in the radiant sunlight of financial
prosperity. Last Saturday the cash in
bank was 1867, 900, and yesterday q
further sum of S10O OOO was raa1i1ad
making the total assets $467,0 and
leaving $242, 900 to the credit of the
estate after paying all Indebtedness

Important Fact in Grape Culture.

We would mention a fact which has
come within our observation and expe-
rience, which, if generally true, IS. of
some Importance. 1t is this: That the
third fruit bud from the base of the
last years cane throws out larger and
better developed punches of grapes
than either the first or second The
grapes from these budsseem also better
favored and generally superior to those
on the first ana second In accordance
with this hint, we have adopted the
plan of cutting the cane at such lengths
as to leave the third bud generally, and
sometimes the fourth, when a good
strong one, and then rubbing off the
first and second buds, and leaving the
third and fourth for fruit. The num-
Der of fruit buds left on the vine must
depend on the age and strength of the
vine. If the vines are strong and Wig
orous at three years. from two to three
punches of grapes may be allowed to
mature on each without injury. Pa

The gentleman who first remarked
the regular recurrence of wine-years at
intervals of about eleven years was not
aware of the periodicity of the sun
spots, and could not therefore have
been in any way prejudiced. The years
given IN the above table are the only
ones known in Germany as good wine
years. These facts agree with the re-
suits of Messrs. Piazzi, Smyth and
Stone, who found that the mean tenn
perature on the surface of the earth was

ShiDb uildjug i'm Denmark.

Iron shipbuilding appears to be rap
idly becoming an important branch of
industry In Denmark. Although for
the last fifteen years small iron vessels,
designated for trading between the va
rious Baltic ports, have been built at
Copenhagen, it is only recently that
the construction of large steamers has
been attempted. At present, several of
1000 tons are being built, and one of
these, it is stated, will be employed in
laying down the telegraph cable be-
tween China and Japan Two steamers,
each of nearly 900 tons, the Role and
the Thorwaldsen, have just made the
passage to New York, and these are
said to be the first iron vessels built
in Denmark which have entered that
port.

No Pill IN THE WORLD ever had any,
thing like the circulation of AYERS PILLS.
Throughout these States, Mexico, and the
Central American Republics. down the slopes
of the Andes, and across the pampas of South
America, in negro villages, amid the fervid
wllds of Africa. throughout the jungles of In
dia, and the steppes of interior Asia, over the
continent of Australia. and the islands of the
Pacific, these PILLS are known and everywhere
used as family remedies for diseases. With
distant nations, their wonderful cures attract
more attention than they do at home for the
sentiment of wonder takes a far deeper hold
on their minds than the results of high sclen-
titic skill with us. The amount consumed re-
quires seventy-five thousand doses day to
supply it. An inspection of the manufactory
showed us how this enormous demand is made
and sustained. Added to the consummate
skill of their composition is an extreme care
in their manufacture, which at once secures
the most perfect material and their most ac-
curate combination. The consequence is a
power and certainty in controlling disease
which other remedies never attained.-Bdzti-

the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and

of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-

Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
