Fruits and Vegetables.

In fruit-growing, remember that fruits
are like grain and vegetable crops, in
this, that they must have manure to
keep up fertility. Unlike vegetables
and grain, however, their feeding roots
are mostly at the surface 1t is best,
therefore, annually to top-dress fruit
trees. If manure cannot be had, any
fresh earth from bitches or road sides.
spread half an inch or so under the
trees, will have wonderful effect. In
deed, we do not know but that for the
pear tree thin layer of road sand is
one of the best of manures We have
seen apples thrive amazingly with a
coating of coal ashes. In vegetable
garden culture it must be remembered
that we have to operate the reverse of
what we do in fruit culture. A woody
growth is what we require for fruit
trees but we need for vegetables soft,
spongy, succulent character, the very
reverse of this. For this end the ground
cannot be too deep, too rich, or too
much cultivated. The hoe and the rake
should be kept continually going, loosen
ing the surface, and admitting "air and
light" as the old books used to say.
There is not only an advantage in this
for the direct benefit of the plant, but an
early use of those tools keeps down the
weeds, and thus we save labor. 1t is a
great thing to be forehanded" in the
weed wal. ar.-Gardener's Monthly.

What Is Your Life Worth Z

No estimate can be made Of the value of a human
life. 1t is beyond appraisement. The wealth of
the world weighed against it would kick the beam.
Yet how many precious lives are thrown away un-
Willingly. The laws of health are simple enough,
but they are not generally understood, and even
when understood are too often disregarded. At
this season, for example, when il is expedent that
the physical system should be toned, regulated
and purified to enable il to endure without injury
the intense heats of summer how many thou sands,
Of the feeble and delicate neglect to fortify
themselves in this way against known danger.
Who is so ignorant not to be aware that Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters, if when taken regularly are
a sure protection against intermittents, remit
tents, and all epidemics engendered by the vapor-
laden atmosphere of spring2 Who does not know
that the same wholesome tonic and Alternative, II
taken at proper intervals throughout the summer,
will prevent fevers, bilious attacks, headache,
collie, nervous debility, indigestion, and all the
long catalogue of ills to which heat and malaria
give rise? Whoever wants clean bill of health
for the most enervatng season Of the year, should
take time by the foreock and commence a course
Of this unequaled vegetable invigorant now.

Sewing Buttons.

1t is bad enough to see bachelor
sew on button, but he is the embodi-
ment of grace along side OF a married
man. Necessity has compelled expert
ence in the case of the former, but the
latter has always depended upon some
one else for this service, and fortunately
for the sake OF society, it is rarely he IS
obliged to resort to the needle himself,
Sometimes the patient wife scalds her
right hand, or runs silver under the
nail of the index finger of that hand,
and it is then the man clutches the nee
die around the neck, and, forgetting to
tie knot in the thread, commences to
put on the button, 1t is always in the
morning, and from five to twenty min
utes after he is expected to be down in
the street. He lays the button exactly
on the site OF its predecessor, and push
es the needle through one eye,and care
fully draws the thread after, leaving
about three inches of it sticking up for
the lee way. He says to himself: "Well
IL women don't have the easiest time L
ever see. Then he comes back the other
way, and gets the needle through the
cloth well enough, and lays himself out
to find the eye, but in spite OF n
great deal of patient stabbing, the
needle pojnt persists in bucking against
the solid part of that button, and final-
ly. when he losses patience, his finger
catches the tread aud that three inches
he had LEFT to hold the button slips
through the eye in twinkling, and tle
button rolls leisurely across the floor.
He picks it up without n single remark
out of respect for his children, and
makes another attempt to fasten it.
This time when coming back with the
needle he keeps both the tiead and bat
ton from slipping by covering them
with his thumb and it is out OF regard
for that part OF him that he feels around
for the eye in very careful and judi
cious manner, but eventually losing his
