Every part of Waltham Watch is made

making the movement of single watch
coast over Hundred Thousand Dollars,
yetwe sell these Watches, in solid Silver
Hunting Case, for $18. The Same watch
could not be made by hand and finisheds
as perfectly for Ten TINES AS MUCH.
A Genuine waltham Watch
Is interchangeable, like Springfield rife
that is, any part Of one Watch is exactly
Like the same part in another and if ten
Watches Of one grade were taken apart,
and the screws, wheels, springs, &C.. were
mixed together, ten watches could be
made by putting these parts together
again, withuot any reference to their
former combination. This is
GREAT ADVANTAGE;
For, if any part of a Waitham Watch is
injured We can always replace it at a
7riaing Expense.

How to Fatten Horses.

Many good horses devour large
quantities of grain and hay and still
continue thin and poOr-the food eaten
is not properly assimilated. If the
usual feed has been unground grain
and hay, nothing but a change will
effect any alteration i'm the appearance
of the animal. In case oil cannot be
obtained readily, mingle bushel of
barley, one of oats, and another of In
dian corn, and let it be ground into a
fine meal. This will be fair proper
ton for all his feed. Or meal of the
barley, oats and corn i'm equal quanti-
ties may first be procured, and one
fourth oil cake mingled with it when
the meal is sprinkled on cut feet. Feed
two or three quarts of the mixture two
or three times daily, mingled with a
peck Of cut hay or straw. If the horse
will eat that greedily, let the quantity
be gradually increased until he will eat
four or six quarts at every feeding
three times day. But avoid the prac-
tice of allowing the horse to stand at a
rack well filled with hay. In order to
fatten horse that has run down in
flesh, the groom should be very par
ticular to feed the animal no more than
he will eat up clean, and then lick his
manager for more.

Sleeping Flowers.

Almost all flowers sleep during the
night. The marigOld goes to bed with
the sun, and with him rises weep
ing. Many plants are SO sensitive that
they close their leaves during the pas
sage of cloud. The dandelion opens
at five or six in the morning, and
shuts at nine in the evening. The
goat's-beard wakes at three in the
morning. and shuts at five or six in
the evening. The English daisy shuts
up its blossom in the evening, and
opens to meet the early rays of the
morning sun. The crocus, lulip and
many others, close their blossoms at
different hours toward the evening.
The ivy-leaved lettuce opens at eight
in the morning, and closes forever at
four in the afternoon. The night
blooming ccreus turns night into day.
1t begins to expand its magnificent
sweet-scented blossoms in the twi-
light it is full-blown at midnight, and
closes never to open again with the
dawn of day. In the clover field not a
leaf opens till after sunrise. Those
plants which seem to be awake all
night have been called ''the bats and
owls of the vegetable Kingdom"

Forest Planting.

There may be those who regard for.
est planting as work Of mystery and
grandeur, beyond the reach of the COM
mon farmer. This is mistaken view.
Nearly all the most important decide
Gus trees may be grown from seed as
readily as Indian corn. OF many spc-
cies the seed may be sown broadcast
and narrowed i'm. if the planter prefers
to use the seed lavishly rather than
give more care. The seeds Of many
trees may be planted either in the fall
or spring. rs may be most convenient.
Some of the softer wooded trees grow
from cuttings as readily as the grape
and with most decidious trees the
seed. or cuttings may, if desired, be at
once planted where the trees are to
stand Nor need the most unlettered
farmer deny himself the pleasure and
profit of the conifers and evergreens.
The plants, furnished at prices which
are Insignificant in comparison with
their value, are abundant at reliable
nurseries. and with the same simple
precaution of keeping the roots moist,
and proper care in planting, are as sure
10 grow as any other tree or shrub.

PARENTAL LOVE.

4 rich man. who had no children, propose
10 his poor 'neighbor, who had seven, to tax
one of them; and promised, If the parent
would consent to the proposal, that he woul
give them property enough to make then
selves and their other six children comfortabl
for life.l
Which shall It be? Which shall il be?
l looked at John-JOhn looked at me
Dear patient John, who loves me vet.
As well as though my locks were Jet
And when found that must speak,
My voice seemed strangely low and weak:
"Tell.me again what Robert saidy'
And then list'ning bent my head.
'This is his letter:
"I will give
A house and land while YOU shall live.
If in return, from out your seven.
One child to me for aye il given.'"
i looked at Johns old garments worn,
thought of all that John had borne
Ofpoverty and work and care,
Which |, though willing, could not share
i thought Of seven mouths to feed,
And seven little children's need.
And then Of this.
''Come, john" said /,
''We'll choose among them as they lie
Asleep" So, walking hand in hand,
Dear John and I surveyed our band.
First to the cradle lightly stepped,
Where Lillian, the baby, slept,
A glory 'gainst the pillow white.
Softly the father stopped to lay
His rough hand down in loving way,
When dream or whisper made her stir,
And huskily he said, mot her-not her."
We stopped beside the trundle-bed,
And one long ray Of lamplight shed
Athwart the boyish faces there,
In sleep so beautiful and fair.
l saw, on Jamie's rough, red cheek,
A tear undried. Ere John could speak,
Hes but baby, too" said /,
And kissed him, as We hurried by;
Pale, patient Robes angel face,
: Still in his sleep bore suffering trace.
mo, not for thousand crowns, not him,
He whispered. while our eyes were dim.
Poor Dick! bad Dick our maynard son
Turbulent, reckless, idle one
Could he be spared. Nay, He who gave,
Babe us befriend him to the grave;
Only mothers heart could be
Patient enough for such as he;
..And So" said John, 81 would not dare
To send him from our bedside prayer
Then We stole softly up above,
And knelt by Mary, child of love.
perhaps for her 'twould better be-
said to John. Quite silently
lie lifted up curl that lay
Across her cheek i'm willfIl way,
And shook his head. "Nay, love, not thee "
The while my heart beat audibly.
Only one more, our eldest lad,
Trusty and truthful, good aud glad
So like his father. mo, John, no;
1 cannot, will not, let him go.''
And so we wrote, in courteous way,
No wQnll nnf drive child
And afterward toll lighter seemed,
Thinking of that of which We dreamed;
Happy, in truth. that not one face
We missed from its accustomed place;
Thankful TO work for all the seven,
Trusting the rest to One i'm heaven.
