NUTTING.

Nutting-that is what the children
in the country do in autumn-time.
Nuts do not grow in the shops. az
a little city boy ence thought they
did; neither do they grow bald, with
only shell on. No, no; nuts are
born and brought up in a tough,
thick bark, which wraps over them
as a warm blanket does little children
who, when they are young and
tender, need a good deal Of cover
ing.
In the fall, when the nuts have
grown big and strong enough to take
care Of themselves, the bark peeIs
open, and cut they drop on the
ground, to be picked up by the
squirrels and rabbits, and stored in
their holes for winter or to be gather
ed by the children, who like, above
all things, 60 nutting. With baskets
and bags, they troop off to the chest,
nut, walnut and butternut trees. and
fine times they have of it.
Jessie went to the old walnut-tree
with her two brothers. "Oh, play
I'm aEquirrel!" cried Jessie.
Then you'll be shy of us, and
run into your holo," said Tom.
"Plsy I'm a tame squared" said
Jessie.
81 hen we shall have to run and
fetch you the nuts, and SO we shall
get none of the good of yOu," said
Tom.
''Then what shall l play?' asked
Jessie.
"PIay you are our dear, good, heIF
ing little sister," said Gussie; ''we
will have real fun out of that.''
Jessie laughed, and filled her basket
first OF ALL Vel Spring.

LONGEVITY OF JEWS AND
CHRISTIANS.

From an examination Of the census
statistics of Austria. Russia, Turkey
Germany, England, France and the
United States, writer in the Med
zeal Record has ascertained that the
mean average duration of life AMONG
Jews exceeds that of Christians BY
about five years. The statement Is
made, also, by Pressia, that there is
.I.6l ner cent. of deaths among Jews
to 1852 per cent. among tina general
population ana IN France Christians
live, on an average 36 years and II
months, but the Jews 48 years and
9,months. According to III. Mayer,

MEASURING HAY.

To measure the contents Of stack
of hay, proceed as follows: If it is q
round stack, tapering to a point from
the ground, measure the width half
way between the ground and the
peak Of the stack, multiply this width
by itself, and divide the sum by
1854 this will give the average
area of tho surface covered by the
stock. Then multiply that by the
height from the ground to the point
where the width was measured.
Ii these measurements are feet, the
sum found is the cubic feet in the
stack. aaae@
II the hay is timothy, orchard
grass, millet, of Hungarian, 500 feet
will make q ton, or cube eight feet
each way. If the stack is very solid
and vas cut when dead ripe, $50 feet
will make q ton, or cube Of seven
feet each way.
+ If the hay is mixed with clover.
about 700 feet, or cube of nice feet
each way, will make ton. Ifit is
all clover, or light meadow grass, Oh
red top. 500 feet will ! be required to
weigh ton, unless it is pressed very
hard, when some allowance must be
made. These estimates are made
from notes Of a great many stacks
and mows of various kinds, and
will give fair Averages. New York

BOHEMIAN GLASS.

Everybody knows the hiOtory OF

GROWING FORGET-ME NOT
INDOOR.

In the Gardenars' Monthly is re-
lated an interesting incident Of a lady
gardener who gathered handful of
the world-rene wned flower, Forget
me-not, and to preserve the as lon g
period as possible they were put in
a large soup plate filled with rain
water. The flowers were placed near
the window. In surprising short
space of tine white thread-like roots
were emitted from the portion of the
howcr-stalks in the water, and they
ultimately formed a thick network
over the plate.
The flowers remained fresh, cx-
cepting few of the most advanced
when gathered and as soon as the
roots begin to run ia the water, the
buds begin to expand, to take the
place of those which faded, and, up
to the middle of November, the bouq-
uet-if it may be called, was dense
mass of flowers, and q more beautiful
or chaste ornament for the in-door
apartment cannot be imagined.

SHUN THE EXTREMES.

We believe in work and plenty of
it, and despise q lazy, thrlftless
person, as heartily az any one. There
are tull enough of such in the world,
and we suppose there alwayswill be.
ShUR the two extremes, and therein
you will find true happiness. Enjoy
yourself every day. Take pleasure
in your work, DO its master, and not
let 1t master you. Keep down your
expenses by net indulging very
fancied modulus yon will have the
heart for enjoyment, and life will
afford ] you deep draughts Of true
pleasure which will make it worth
the living. Those who do not take

live, they merely stay and sSch lives

HO VITO MAKE A MUSTARD
PLASTER.

How many people are there who
really know how to make mustard
piaster?-Not enc in a hundred, and
yet physicians prescribe their applica-
ton, never telling anybody how to
make them, for the simple reason that
the doctors themselvs do not know,
a rule. Che ordinary way is to
mix the mustard with water, temper
ing it with little flour, but such a
plaster as that makes it simply
abominable. Before it has half done
its work it begins to blister the pat
lent, and leaves him finally WIKI q
painful, fayed spot, after having
produced far less effect in beneficial
way than was intended. Now a
mustard plaster should never make q
blister at all. When you make
must ard plaster, then, use 40 water
whatever, but mix the mustard with
the white of an egg and the result
will be plaster which will draw"
perfectly. but will not pr duce 8
blister even upon the skin Of an
infant no matter how lo1g it is
allowed to remain upon the
part. Lei
