How TO Keep Cider.

A writer in the journal of the Farm
says of his mode of keeping it, that he
is aware there are as many recipes fol
keeping cider as for curing colds OF
rhematism. He allows the cider, after
il comes from the press, to stand until
the pumice settles When this point is
reached, he puts it in clear vessel, and
let's it come to q boil, skimming off ihe
scum carefully. 1t is then putinto kegs
and fdemijohns and tightly corked and
sealed. BY this process he secures ex
cellent sweet cider, not merely the en-
tire Winter, but for years, This meth
cd would not, Of course, be available
where large quantities are made, but fol
an ordinary family it answers admirably

80 Many years ago, when as yet there
was but one church in the town of Lyme,
Connecticut, the people were without a
pastor. They had been for long time
destitute, and were now on the point OF
making a unanimous cal! for very ac-
tcptable preacher, when a cross-grainci
: man, named Dorr, began q violent OPP
position to the candidate, rallied party
and threatened to defeat the settlement.
At parish meeting, while the matter
was under discussion, a haifwittcd fcI-
low rose in the house, and said he want
cd to tell a dream he mad last night.
He thought he died, and went away
where the bad people so, and as soon as
Satan saw him, he asked him Where he
came from ?"
"From Lyme, Connecticut" 1 told
him right out.
"Ah! and what are they doing in
Lyme 7" he asked.
"Thcy are trying to settle minis
ter" I said.
"Scttle q minister" he cried out 81
must put q stop to that! BRING me my
boots; l must go to Lyme this very min
utew
l then told him, as he was drawing on
his boots, that Mr.. Dorr was opposing
the settlement, and very likely he would
prevent it altogether.
"My sarrdnt Dorrw exclaimed his
majesty; my sarrdnt Dorr? Here take
my boots if my sarvant Dorr is at work
there is no need of my going at ALI"
This speech did Inc business. Mr..
Dorr Made-Ac further opposition; the
MiRister was settled, but his opponent
carried the title "my sarvant Dorr I"
with hIm to the grave.

A correspondent of the Rochester
Democrat heard Mark Twain's lecture
on Artemus Ward, and gives among
other good things, the following sample
extract:
As Artemus was once travelling in the
cars, dreading to DO bored and feeling
miserable, . man approached him, sat
down. and said;
"Did you hear that last thing of Hor-
ace Greeley'sy"
"Grcclcy! Greeley" said Artemus.
Horace Greeley" Who is he?"
Tho man was quiet about five minutes.
Pretty soon he said:
"George Francis Train is kicking up
. good deal of a row over in England;
do You think they will put him in bas-
tile."
"Train, Train, George Francis Train, I"
said Artemus, solemnly; 81 never heard
Of him."
This ignorance kept. the man quiet
for fifteen minutes, then he said:
What do You think about Genera
Grants chances for the Presidency? Do
you think they will run him ?"
"Grant! Grant? Hang it, man." said
Artemus, "yOu appear to know more
strangers than ever saw"
The man was furious; he walked up
tho car, but at last came back and said:
aYou confoundcd ignoramus, did you
ever hear of Adam"
Artcmus looked up and said: "What
was his other name 2"

Can farmers Of moderate means afford

you permitted to know, and how do you
know it Do you see yourself, or do the
angels tell you' Doyou know how much

shed, how we try to sing some of those

do you hear US as we talk Of planting the

heaven, but that you would jump down
again and come back. Do you feel like
Jumping down now. You used to say you
WANTED to go to heaven, but you do not
want any wings. Have you got wings

you, little Pet. You were the light and

lonely without you Yet ifyou are only
