For THE SIcK-RooM.-Thc fol-
lowing recipe makes delicious
refreshing wash in the sick room, and
cools the aching head. Take of
rosemary, NORWOOD, lavender,
rue, sage, and mint, a large hand
full Of each. Place in u stone jar,
and pour over it one gallon of
strong cider vinegar; cover closely,
and keep near the fire for four days.
Then strain, and add one ounce OF
pounded camphor gum. Bottle and
keep tightly corkcd. There. is, q
French legend connected with this
called rinaigre q Quatre voleurs.-
During the plague at Marscillcs, a
band ofrobbers plundcrcd the dead
and dying without injury to them
selves. They were imprisoned,
tried, and condemned to die, but
were pardoned on condition of dis
closing the secret whereby they
could ransack houses infected with
the terrible scourgc. They gave
the above recipe. Another mode
Of using it is to wash the face and
hands before exposing ones self to
any infection. 1t is very aromatic
and refreshing in the sick-room; so
If it can accomplish nothing more,
it is OF great value to house-kcepcrs.

How Money is Made by Farming.

Much labor is done on farms that
is not farming in its true sense BY
such labor no money is ever made.
a man may support himself and
his family, keep out of debt, and
have a few dollars in his pocket by
practicing the most stringent econ
omy. If he is otherwise than in
dustrious and sober, he is on the
down grade with loose brakes, and
the end is not reached. But farm
in its true sense is a profession
equal in dignity to that of a law or
medicine, and needs equal study,
mental capacity, and intclligently
directed labor to command success
in it. The principal which under
lies the practice of the true farmer
must be well understood and a steady
consistent course Corporations must
be followed. Having thoroughly
learned the nature and capacity of
the soil he possesses, and chosen the
rotation most suitable, and the stock
to be most profitably kept upon it
he does not swcrve from his chosen
course, but in good markets and
bad, raises his regular crops, and
keeps his land in regular increasing
fertility. No special cry tempts or
frightens him. He does not talk
dairy this season OF crops the next;
but doubtless Of any particular pro-
duct be in demand and brings a
goods price he has some of it to sell
and reaps his share of the advan-
tage, lie saves as much money as
some men make by care and econ
omy purchasing and preserving
tools, seeds, manure and ma. hines;
and his business habits and constant
rediness for all occasions give him
reasonable security against the #.
fccts of adverse seasons and bad
weather. Always prepared, he is
never too late, aal always calm, he
is never too soon, and thus, "taking
time by the forelock," he has the
stern old tyrant at his command,
and turns him at his will. lie has
no losses, and his gains arc steady.

Quick WoFk,

A banner should be presented
to our friend JnO. Hennessey, for
the rapidity with which he has
McAdamized our Goodson streets.
The contract embraced about 2.700
square yards, and Mr.. Hennessey,
quarried, hauled, beat, and spread
the stone, all within thirty days.
This beats any thing on record
here. Mr.. Hennessey is a live,
active, energetic gentleman, and
never works any other way. We
take pleasure in saying, that we
would as soon trust him to put
right through, any job he would
undertake as any man of our ac-
quaintance. He is an agreeable
gentleman to transact business
with, and proceeds about it so qui-
city and Systematically, that one
would be slow to suspect, that he
runs none other than a lightning
schedule.
