. A. WARp.-Mark Twain lectlred in Chi.
=-cago on A. Ward, and told the following an.
ecdote
= AS Artemus was once travelling in the
cars, dreading to be bored and feeling mise.
rable, a man approached him, sat down, and
said:
"Did YOU hear that last thing on Horace
Greeley"
"Greeley! Greeley" said Artemus,
"HoIacc Greeley? Who is he?"
The man was quiet about five minutes.
Pretty soon he said:
George Francis Train is kicking up q
good deal of n row over in England. Do
you think they will put him in a bastile?"
"Train? Train? George Francis Train r
said Artemus solcnlnly. 81 never heard Of
him."
This ignorance kept the man quiet for fif
teen minutes, then he said:
what do you think about General Grants
chances for the presidency: Do you think
they will run him:"
Grant: Grant, hang it man." said Arte-
mus, "you appear to know more strangers
than any man / ever saw"
The man was furious. lie walked up the
Cur, but ut last came back and said: ~
"You COMPOUNDED ignoramus, did you
ever hear of Adamw
Artemus looked up and said:
"What was his other name"

Poultry for Profit,

The fatal diseases Of the past year have dis
heartened many breeders, and will doubtless
deter others from attempting the cultivation
Of "poultry for profit" but this should not
be, since misfortunes and failures sometimes
overtake us in all our pursuits. Farmers do
not give up the cultivation Of cereals because
the fly, the joint-worm, OF drought, cut short
their products. Why, then, become dis
heartened because of misfortune in another
branch of their crops! Taking the capital
invested and the labor required, we are quite
sure that the skilful farmer realizes larger
profits from his poultry-yard, year after year,
than from any other branch of his pursuits.
II his fowls are well-housed and properly fed
and watered, success is almost certain, pro-
rided they are judiciously bred, and are not
over-crowded III their runs and lodgings.
No farmer would expect to raise fine horses,
or horned cattle, or sheep, or hogs, from in
ferior stock, bred in-and-in for a series of
years. He should not expect greater success
from inferior poultry.
AS the breeding season is rapidly approach
ing, a few hints at this time may prove adj
vuntageous to some of our readers.
Where only dunghills are kept, and have
been bred for years, the stock may be greatly
improved by the infusion of new blood. For
twenty pullets allow two Brahma, Cochin,
or Houdan cocks, and see that more than
twenty-five birds are not allowed to lodge
together. Where large number Of fowls
are kept, small memories, to accommodate
twenty-five birds, are far healthier than larger
ones. These should be warm, but well VEN
tilated and kept scrupulously clean. Old
nests should be burned and the nest-boxes
thoroughly cleanSed Of vermin. Old hens
should be fatted and killed. Ash wallows
should be renewed. Coopsfor young broods
should be renovated and fitted TO exclude
rats. And dry runs, in which hens and their
broods can scratch and feed on damp days,
should be carefully prepared.
Spring birds are less liable to gapes and
other diseases than those Matched in SUM-
mer; but all fowls must be kept dry, and be
we'll fed and watcred, if they are to thrive
and prove profitable. Cold winds and rains
are very destructive to young poultry, us are
heavy dews.
Our remarks apply alike to chickens, tlr-
keys, guineas, ducks, and geese. All require
care when young, and the more ample the
provision made for their comfort the larger
the return they will make for their care.--
Mr. LeTelle,a in the Planter.

WooD FIRES.-Wc often wonder why, in
an are Astounding in inventions for house
hold comfort, the oldest anu best of all-the
wood fire on the hearth-has almost diSap-
pcared. 1t cannot be on the ground Of its
greater expense, for that is but tritle COM
pared TO luxuries which we see everywhere.
Scrllpulous housewives, we believe, object 10
it a. untidy. But from such Pharisaic regard
for the outside of the cupand platter may we
be delivered. Now, in the first place, nothing
keeps the air of room so fresh and sweet as
an open wood fire. Its advantage in point
of healthfulness over the ordinary ways OF
warming is immense For room Of or
binary size. in this climate, it gives amply
sufficient heat. And what; wonderful
promoter of cheerfulness itist is Us much
better than the open coal Treas ,that is better
! than the black hole in fheH oor called regis
ter. It's voice, rs iF purrs, and cgacklcs, and
roars, is enough to drive away the worst lit
Of the blues. Its mounting flames give the
cheerieSt light in the world. The depth of
its glowing Goals continually allure and charm
the eye. There are not many human beings
who are as good company for every mood.
After the days work and fret it brings calm
and cheer. 1t wiles away all troubling
thought. If the mind is at work, its unob-
trusive commnionship soothes and aids.
When one is weary he may find restful occu-
patton in watching the freaks Of the flames
and listening to their changeful voice. 1t
brightens people and brings them together.
To what scenes Of friendship and social en-
joyment does it lend q unique charm 1t is
the luxury Of luXuries-a thing without
which life is incomplete. cher.
