The Jeoish Messenger has an article
upon distinctive Judaism" in which
we find this genial paragraph:
God has formed us to be peculiar
people, distinct from nll others in our
religious duties. But here this distinc-
ton ends. In every good act which
tends to elevate humanity, we arc CO.
partners with the world; we rejoice IN
their happiness, sympathize with their
sorrows, elevate the lowly and educate
the Ignorant. To be plainly and proper
ly understood, we are Jews in the syna-
gogues and in our dwellings,; but in the
walks OF life we are citizens of the world,
cosmopolitan in feeling and sympathy
and action.

Heavens name, what air, as Miss Might.
lpgale says, can we breathe at night ex-
cept night air? The choice lies between
pure night air from without and foul
night mir from within; most people pre-
fer the latter, it is true, but it is night
air oil the same, though they may not
be aware Of the fact.
Did you ever test these two kinds of
night air by going early in the morning
into the room of n person brought up to
sleep with closed windows, and imme-
diate'y afterward into one whero the sash
has been lowered six inches from the
top, and raised six from the bottom /?
Well, what did you find? In one, how
ever pretty and we'll arranged. however
healthy, neat and well bred it's occupant.
smell of bed clothes, of damp towels.
OF dust, of carpet-all slight. but all in
dioative of that used-up condition of the
atmosphere which is so fatal to q sleeper.
In the other, no better situated or fur
nlshed, all elastic feel, a perfume of
freshness which made breathing plea
SAINT. Was it not so? Or did you ever
compare your own sensations after sleop-
ing in fresh air with those produced
after sleeping in foul? How many Of
the failures, tho mischances Of life, the
morning dnllness which hindered this
or that, the refusal of the brain to work
at critical moment, the apathy. the
blindness Of perception, date buck to
that unaired bed room which sen: us
forth unrefreshcd to our work, and
ushered In depressing and discouraged
day? But it is useless to contend with
so decply-rooted prejudice. Let us 60
back to our exiled friend, who certainly
hos daytime claim, though he be de-
MED nightly one, to our sufterancc.
How few of MS recognize, rs the long
winter creeps away, and, shrinking from
the outward chill. we cover into fire
SIDE corners and warm wrappers. how
day by day we are insensibly oontenting
ourselves with the samo breathell-oyer
air which, scarcely renovated since, sup
Piled our lungs yesterday and the day
before. "Open the window, indeed, ]"
we cry; "why, its all we can do to exist
with them tightly shut" Yes, but para
dox as 1T seems, there is warmth in the
very cold which an open window would
admit. That is, the oxygen of the
purer air, quickening the circulation and
bringing the temperature of head, hands
and feet into proper balance, will, of
itself, induce glow which helps the fire
to re-warm the room after it's airing
And with the equipoise OF circulation
good humor comes and cheerfulness, and
the capacity to be amused. How we
lose these things-how dull We grow
stewing over registers, or before anthra-
ite.burning stoves. The winter seems
to get into us-our wits stiffen and
freeze; we don't laugh or enjoy; we
simply endure life. and with desperate
longing sit waiting for the spring.

The Sugar Beet
MY%a

The efforts to introduce the culture Of
the sugar beet in this country merits
more encouragement than they have
yet received, though there can be little
doubt that this root will ultimately be-
come an important product of our agri-
cultural industry. AT an agricultural
meeting m Valenciennes, France, few
years ago, triumphai arch was erect: d
bearing the inscription: " The growth
of wheat in this district before the pro-
duction of beet root sugar was only
$4,000 bushels; the number of oxen was
seven hundred. Since the introduction
ofsugar manufacture the growth of wheat
has been 1,16S,000 bushels, and the
number of oxen 1000" There is prob
ably no crop that returns so much to
the soil as this. Wherever its culture
has been introduced in Europe, the pro-
duct of wheat and cattle has greatly in
creased. The same results would I'M
douotedly follow its cultivation here.
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1872-06-20

when sown so late, unless it can be in a
partially shaded place.
Melons of all kinds require the same
treatment as cucumbers.
Onions must be thoroughly weeded.
and the soil stirred often, to secure a
profitable crop.
Parsnips.-Keep the soil loose and
free from weeds until the Haves cover
the ground and prevent working.
Peas are not usually very successful
when sown late, On account of the mil
dew. If planted at all, cover with 5 or
3 inches of earth, to prevent drying
up.
Rhubarb.-Cut off fower-stalks, as thew
needlessly exhaust the plants.
Rata-Bagas may be sown the latter
part OF the month, and if there is anv
trouble from insects, dust with ashes.
Stacked lime, or plaster.
Satisfy needs the same cultivation as
recommended for parsnips.
Sseeet Potatoes do well in most of the
Northern States. The first week in
June is early enough to plant. A we'll
MANFRED ridge, about one foot high.
should be prepared and the sets planted
one foot apart. We have found the
Southern Queen to be the best sort, but
the Nansemond is also good.
Tomatoes must have their excessive
growth kept in check by pinching, in
order to get good crop of fruit. Some
sort of a trellis should be provided for
training the plants upon.

Sold His Colt.

San Jose has many coIored individ-
uals. A few days since one of them had
g colt given to him, and applied to a
farmer for pasturage. A bargain was
made, and the boy was..t pay the farm
er 81 per month for pasturage. 4
month passed by, and the darkey paid
his 81. At the expiration of the second
month, however, he, after paying his 81,
approached the farmer and said q Hyar,
boss, don't yer want to buy dat colt ?'
The farmer replied: 81 don't know.
What will you take for him ?" The
colored philosopher said, Z" Twelve dol
lars" ",Well,n says the farmer, "Ill
tell you what I'll do; if you'll take it
out in pasturage, I'll buy It." "How
long will it take ?'' said the darkey.
-" Six months, replied the farmer. "All
right, boss; 60 ahead; you can have
the colt replied the African, confident
that he had made splendid bargain.
He had paid 81 out of hrs pocket, and
sold his colt for pasturage.

The Potato Bug-How to Kill Him.


Every year-for the Colorado potato
bug has become a perennial pest in this
climate-our exchange papers are recon-
mending the celebrated "Paris green"
paint, in its dry form, as a sovereign
remedy for the ravages of this ANNOYING
and disgusting insect. Now the basis of
Paris green' is arsenic, and, if posi-
BILE, more poisonous and destructive
than the bug itself; and we advise our
readers to use it no more forever, for a
better remedy, and one entirely harm
less, is found in the refuse lime which
has been used in the manufacture of
burning gas. This is not new idea or
remedy. 1t has been used with the
greatest success by people whom we
know, and is pronounced by them safe
and efficient in its operations as a bug
destroyer, while its effect upon the land
is to fertilize and improve it. This may
be depended upon; and as the gas COM
panies will be glad to give away all that
they make, and it is abundant, the only
expense attached to its use is the cost
of hauling it to the potato fields. 1t
can be pulverized and scattered over
the vines, and the bug will soon be ex-
terminated.
We heartily commend this remedy to
all who anticipate contest this summer
with the little pest designated.

OInelets.

Few articles of food are SO readiIv at.
talnable, SO attractive in appearance.
and so quickly cooked as omelets
good and economical omelet is made
with four eggs, we'll beaten, and added
to one cup OF milk, into which has been
stirred one tablespoonful of pounded
cracker and one small teaspoon of -four
STR the mixture well together Just be-
fore pouring it on the well-buttered
grlddle, which should not be too hot
lest the omelet should have strong
flavor of scorched butter. Turn it. as
soon as it begins to "set'' around the
edge, with -bladed knife fold it
over over once, and then again, and at once
hit the griddle, and turn the omelet
upon warm plate. 1t will of course be
OF four thicknesses. The best and
incest omeiet IS made with one egg to
one spoonful of milk For an unex.
pected guest, this one-egg omelet is
just the thing for luncheon or tea. as If
is SO easily made and turned off the
grlddle SO handsomely. A very good
omelet IS made by preparing mince-
meat OF boiled ham, or cold veal, or
chicken, well seasoned, and after the
egg is poured upon the griddle
immediately scattering on thick LAYER
of the mince, and then folding the
omelet as usual. Never put salt into an
omelet. Poached or scrambled eggs
should always be served on square pieces
of toasted bread, which have been
dipped for an instant in hot water and
buttered. Mince-meat, to be nicely
served, should always be accompanied
by toast in the same way.
