YANKEE INGENUITY. the adapta-
tlon OF means to secure ends, in plan
ming ways to get out of scrape, the
mind of Yankee is equal to any emer-
gency. One of the best illustrations of
Yankee ingenuity ever recorded is in
connection with the steamer Idaho. that
arrived in San Francisco harbor few
days ago. When several days from port
the cylinder head of the boiler blew out
and left the craft goodly distance out
on the high seas. The steamer was
without masts, and there was no friendly
sail IN sight, to rescue freight or pas
sengers. The captain was in dismay,
and the crew were calculating how they
could save their lives. But while every
one else was disconnected, Yankee car
penter, who was among the passengers,
set himself to work, and out of such
materials as he could find constructed a
wooden cylinder head, which was sub
stltuted for the iron one, and such ex-
cellent service did it do that the boiler
carried almost its usual amount of steam.
and the steamer made its trip with only
comparatively short delay.

KILLED BY A FALsEHooD.-s'H He is
dead" said friend of ours the other
day, in answer to an inquiry after the
=" Dead you don't say so. OF what did
he die p "Of credulity," was the
reply; che believed in a patent medi-
cine of which the chief ingredient was
forty-rod rum, and it proved the death
of him. This was true; the unfortu-
nate man had taken for liver complaint
compound of fiery alcohol and root
juice, and it killed him. Now, did that
misguided invalid require tonic? He
did; but not spirituous excitant. The
writer of this brief statement is con-
tident, from his own experience, that if
the Martyr to Dragged Alcohol had re-
sorted to DIR. WALKERS VINEGAR
BTrTERs, instead of to the poison acib q
medical name, which proved fatal to
him, he would to-day be in the land of
the living. The justly popular vegetable
specific contains no destructive element.
1t is a tonic that does not excite, a
cathartic that does not weaken, an anti
septic that neutralizes the seeds of dis
ease In the blood and other fluids of the
body, and general Alternative which
arrests diseased action in the secretive
organs, and restores the functional regu-
larity indispensable to health and vigor.
We are no friend of indiscriminate
praise. and believe that many patent
medicines are merely poison, but the
experience of thousands has proved the
VINEGAR BTTTERs to be all they claim. -

Brown is not aware of its character until

Being asked how long he had possessed
this power, he answered that he could not
tell any more than he could relate when
he learned to speak. Up to his sixth year
that period, when playing with other
children, he found that contact with them
produced in him peculiar sensations,
sometimes pain; that in dark room,
sparks of what seemed fire would fly from
the ends of his fingers if his hands were
brought suddenly together. His mother
used frequently to remark oddities about
him, and often spoke of them. Eight
years ago he was led to experiment by the
accidental passage of a companions hand
across his forehead, resulting in psychic
sympathy between their minds. Shortly
after he arrived at results similar to those
detailed in the trials aforementioned.
He is twenty one years of age, cookbook

When to Cut Grass.

AN English paper says: If for horses
ut work, the grass should be moved after
it has passed out of blossom, when the
seed is in the milk, because at this stage
it contains the largest quantity of nutri-
tious substances, such as sugar, starch,
gum, ETC., which are of the highest value,
contributing much toward rendering hay
such choice article Of food. If for cows,
it should be cut earlier, so as to leave the
grass as nearly in the green state as posi-
ble-soft and Observation-Disclosures in this
condition it contains larger quantity of
juices which assimilate we'll in the ami
NAL, and produce greater flow of milk.
If for young stock and sheep, the grass
should be moved when in full flower, be-,
cause after Towering, and as the seed
forms and ripens, it is exposed to loss in
its nutritive matter by the seeds being
shaken out and the brittle foliage break
ing off during cutting and making, and
the grain ITSELF especially the rye grass,
becoming almost woody fiber, losing
nearly all its sap and sweet aroma. In
short, hay made from over-matured grass
is no better than ordinary straw, if indeed

prevailing deception of the present age is
the impression that every human biped of
