EFFECTS OF MIXING CREAM.-That
the cream of different COWS when
mixing does not produce butter at
the same time, with the same
amount of churning, has lately been
nicely illustrated in the family of
Mark Hughes, at West Grove, Penn.
They had Jersey heller in good
flow of milk, and an old COW. a
stripper; their cream worked to-
gether. It was observed they did
not make butter enough for the
bulk of cream. The buttermilk
also looked rich and made about
five pounds. They churned again
for a few minutes and found from
two to three pounds more of butter
in the churn-showing that the
heifer's cream had made butter first,
and that the cream of the old COW
needed several minutes more churn-
ing.

Hints on Health.

Coarse bread is better for chill
dren than fine. Children should
sleep IN separate beds, and should
not wear night-caps. Children
under seven years Of age should not
be confined over six or seven hours
in the house, and that time should
be broken by frequent recesses.
Children and young people must be
made to hold their heads up and
their shoulders back, while sitting,
standing, or walking. The best
beds for children are of hair and
cotton. From one to one pound
and half of solid food Is sufficient
for a person in the ordinary voca-
tions Of business. Persons In sed-
entary employments should drop
one-thir of their food, and they
will escape indigestion. Young
persons should exercise at least two
hours day in the open air. Young
ladies should be preventedfrom ban
daging the chest. We have known
the worst disease, terminating In
death, which began in this practice.
Reading aloud is conducive to
health. The moro clothing we
wear, other things being equal, the
less food We need. Sleeping-rooms
should have a fireplace, or some
mode of ventilation besides the win
dows. Young people and others
can not study much by lamp-light
with impunity. The best remedy
for eyes weakened by night use, is
a fine stream of cold water frequent
" applied to them The Lancet. !

FASHION NOTES,

There has probably never been a
greater variety Of more costly importations
in silks, than the present season displays.
Twenty-three inches is considered the
proper size for lady's waist at the pres
ent day, when small, wasp-like waists are
no longer admired.
A new style of ornament for the hair
is n small birds nest of flagree gold, in
which is small gilt bril- with wings ex-
tended and jeweled eyes.
Very elegant handkerchief are gener-
ally trimmed with Valenciennes, for the
reason, probably, that this lace repays
careful doing-up better than most other
varieties
Plain collars and cuff, of fine linen, the
latter attached to AN undersleeve, remain
in favor for the street. The pret.iest col
lar is made of but one thickness of linen
with band of the material stitched to
border it; it is a fine collar, quite narrow
at the back, and broadsns in front to mod
crate sized points; the square cuff fastens
with linen buttons.
Amang the trimming lace, the most
popular are the round point and point APP
plique, Valenciennes, Chantilly, guipure,
and French trimming lace. White and
black dutchess, though an exceedingly
rich lace, is not quite SO popular a. it was
upon its frst appearance.
A new feature in arranging TUNES Is
tying them At the back with bows prlaced
down the middle. The bows are large
with short, wide ends. Other TUNES are
left open behind, in the form of two wid'
scat ends, and terminate with loops o
ribbon. When skirts are ruffied up tn,
back brssdths nearly to the waist, the tuni

SUMNER AND GRANT.


lSpecisl W lHe Nhi'asO
WAsHISoToS, March 49, Mr.. Sumner
has been badgered on all sides to-day by
those WIN desire to learn where he Is to be-
found politically in the presidential cam.
paign To his senatorial friends he re-
pea,s that he has not said that he was 60
ing to the Cincinnati convention, nor that
he had been asked and had consented TO
become its presiding officer. lie says he
has some hopes that Giant will not be re-
nominated by the otiicehold,rs ut the
Philadelphia convention in which event he
will support the nominees Of that convcn-
ton. 1t the liberal republican convention
of Cincinnati sholld nominate Charles
Francis Adams or Senator Trumbull he
would probably support either one, but in
order to give full understanding of his
position, Mr.. Sumner avows his unaltera-
bic hostility to Grant, without, however,
indicating what he will do to defeat his
reelection. Senator Wilson, who is said
to be responsible for the story about sum-
ner and the Cincinnati conven ion, has
gone to Connecticut to speak in the cam
paign there, or else he would have been
called on to-day, from numerous quarters,
for his version of the conversation.

HITS THE NAIL on THE HEAD.

The Clarksville Chronicle of the %
under the caption of dead heads" says (:
Railroads occasionally complain of dead
heading, but no institution suffers SO much
from it as the press. A sensible writer
says;
The press endures the an iction Of dead

stage; from corporations societies and in

CORRESPONDENCE has taken place be

National COMMITTEES and Hon. +. w
uorn, member of the Committee from
Wisconsin, as to the place Of holding the
Democratic National Convention. Mr..
Horn has expressed himself in favor Of

has written to Mr. Belmont that We have
hotel accommodations su fflcient, and that
the Opera House would accommodate the
Convention. Nothing was said in the
correspondence as TO the time of the Con-
vention.-[ Milwaukee News.
We rather like the idea, for since the
existence of Milwaukee she has been a
democratic city and under democratic
rule has been one of the best governed
cities in the union. The city in sum-
mer is cool and healthy, and the con-
vention, instead of sweltering in the
hot, dusty atmosphere Of Cincinnati or
St Louis would be greatly invigorated
BY the breezes fro m Lake Michigan.
The opera house is ample for the con-
vention. And "Plankington"-"New

THE REAL EXPENSES OF LIFE.

Among the elements which go to make
up human existence, the moral, intelleo
tual and aesthetic ure for many people no
less real than the physical. The senti-
ments may revolt us we'll as the stomach /;
the taste may shiver and starve as we'll ne
the body; the s,ul may sutfocate as we'll
as the lungs. But it is just these, as man
would call them, fanciful or luxurious re-
quisites of existence which cost the most
in downright, hard cash. Plain beef and
bread, and butter, warm boots and trous-
srs, and weather-proof shelter, though
they cant be had for nothing, are certainly
much more easily and cheaply obtained
than the more refined but less material
conveniences and graces which give to
life its chief attraction.

We ARE in receipt Of several issues
of the 'Ayant Courier, published at
Bozeman, Gallatiu county, Montana
territory. Looking at the Courier, it
is difficult to realize that it is published
in the far west in region which but
a few years ago, had no location on the
maps of our country. In appearance,
in journalistic makeup, in editorial
matter, the Courier shows no evidence
that it is published in far away, and,
until lately, almost inaccessible part of
the country,.a region unknown, perhaps,
except what is learned of it throug h
the public prints, to nearly every reader
Of our home newspapers. But civili-
zation travels fast, and looking through
the local columns of the Courier we
find local notices" and items very sim
liar to those which usually fill the local
columns of papers published in the
states. We find an extended account
J of "ball and supper" celebrative Of
! Washington's birthday, with the usual
compliments to "mine host Of the
hotel, which bears the un western it'll

column communication signed Jun

the question of the public schools, anC
the same paper contains an editorial
article on projected academy. Read.
ing it, the thought has been suggested,
that whatever may be justly said Of
the roughness and barbarism Of western
life, the good seeds of civilization and
refinement are being fast and plentifully
sown in it. Looking at a map Of the
United States, We find Bozeman on the
Yellowstone river, miles south Of the
line Of the Northern Pacific railroad, in
the mountain regions Of Montana. The
'Avant Courier is most appropriate
and suggestive name for its first news
paper, and glancing up aud down its col
umns, the knowledge is brought home
to US that We live in a great country
