LIVE SToCK.-The animals on the
farm need extra care and attention,
and yet, owing to the pressure of
other work, they are very 20 be ne
elected. Recollect: that a farmer S
success depends very much on the
judgment with which he manages,
his live stock. Almost any farmer
has the qualities necessary to raise
corn and potatoes, but not one in ten
has the Judgment necessary to
manage horses, COWS, sheep, and pigs
to the best advantage. It requires
good judgment, a kind disposition,
promptnsss, systematic regularity, a
keen eye to detect the first signs of
lameness, indigestion, want of appe-
tite, sluggishness, want of vigor, etc.
When one animal is taken sick, it
should be taken for granted that, as
general rule, there is some defect
or neglect in the food or manage
ment, not only of this one, but of
all the others. At any rate, the
matter should, at once, be investi-
ted.

GLYCERINE AND NTTRO-GLYCRRIEK -
Glycerine Is the sweet principle of
oils and fats. 1t Is made by boiling
oil with lithrage and water until the
acids of the oil are converted into
lead salts, which are insoluble while
the glycerine rem aims IN solution
Nitro-glycerine Is prepared by dis
solving glycerine into equal meas
ures Of the strongest nitric and sui
phuric acids, previously cooled, and
pouring the solution in a thin stream
into a large volume of water. The
niro-gIycerine Is then precipitated
as a cOlorless, heavy oil. IF a drop
of nitro-glycerine be placed on an
anvil and struck sharply. it explodes
with q very loud report; and If q
piece of paper be struck, it is blowed
into small fragments. On the ap-
pIcation Of a fame or red hot iron
to nitro-gIycerine, 1t burns quietly,
and when heated over q lamp in the
open air, 1t eIPlodes but feebY. In
a closed vessel, however, 1t explodss
ct about 500 degrees Fahrenheit,
with great violence. 1t Is of en- ig-
nited ike gunpowder under water
by means Of a wire and a galyanie
battery.

THE GETTYSBURG KATALYs1E Spring.
Such is the name bestowed upon a
medicinal spring which appears on the
battlefield at Gettysburg, which is
winning fame as worldwide as that of
the great battle fought around It. The
story Of its discovery by the wounded
in the battle Is the projection Of one Of
the ancient fables into our modern his
tory. Almost equally fabulous are
some of its cures. Even the medical
iournals admit that it is not only a rem
edy for the worst forms, but for nearly
every variety of our chronic diseases.
Its ateTs are being carried to every
part s1the vot]d, for they neither lose
thei Itasfe medical virtue by bottling
or p5HJae to the atmosphere. See

Do NOT Work THE BOYS TOO HARD.
Ever since boys were, men have
been inclined to abuse them. And
the better the boy, the worse the
man, and the more likely the boy to
be put upon. The poorest tools
are given to him and the most disa-
greeable work. Did you ever see an av-
erage man who selected the hardest
cows to milk and gave the boy the
easiest? Did you ever know a man
who would 60 for water and let the
boys sit down and rest IN the field
while he was gone?

ANOTHER UNFEELING CONDUCTOR.
Fare collected Under DimcuItics.

One day last week a number of emigrants for
Missouri got aboard the train near Bristol,
which was in charge of Capt. Sam DeArmond,
one OF the cleverest fellows that ever pulled
bell cord. There was nothing strange IN the
fact Of their getting aboard, but at the ousto-
mary call for tickets only portion OF them re-
sponded, leaving others with nothing but stOhd
faces to serve in lieu of the necessary paste
boards Capt D. called their attention to the
deficiency, when, with smiles that were
"child-like and bland" the innocent denizens
of the mountains rose to explain" that they
were from the agricultural districts and IN
purchasing farming implements for prairie
culture they had expended their last dollar for
Westward ho' and had got their tickets al
together from an emigrant agent who assured
them that it was all right.
The conductor told them that their eXplana-
ton was too thin and that he would be com
PEELED to put them off at the next station with
out the fare was paid. They put their heads to-
gether and their Joint purses aggregated three
dollars, which they rendered the Captain, who,
while he pitied their condition, yet had to obey
orders But in the tenderness OF his heart be
telegraphed the pitiabe facts TO headquarters IN
this city and asked for instructions, receiving
no respOnCe however as the hour was too early
for the operator to be at the Office.
He resolved to wait until the train arrived at
JOnesbOro' and take the views of one of the
directors before putting of the unfortunate
wights, and after a conversation with him that
official declined to assume any responsibility,
and the order was given to put out their bag
gage, which the train hands at once commenced
doing. Seeing that the crisis had arrived, an
elderly woman of the party told Sam not to be
hasty, but to wait moment and if she had the
money she would pay it rather than see her
neighbOrs left behind.
Mr. De Armand countermanded the order
and the old lady reached down into the mystic
rious recesses of her apparel and produced q
package of greenbacks sufficient to have paid
for trip around the world and counted OFF the
requisite sum, accompanied with a caustic allu-
sion about the exactions of railroads in general
and the " onfeelingness" of conductors in par
ticuar. Sam took the money meekly and left
that gentle female emigrant with feelings more
easily imagined than described, and if any body
asks him Where She got the money, he furnishes
pious persons an opportunity to reprove him
for profanity.
