Maids and Mattresses.

1t should be plain enough that examples
are as much to servants as to children
since in manners and social training SER
wants are as children. The peasant-girl
reared in an Irish cabin or German cottage
can hardly be expected to be model of
politeness or OF personal neatness. 1t is
quite possible, however, to teach her by
example alone. If the mistress be courte-
GUS to every member of her family, and
they in turn to her, the maid soon feels
the atmosphere Of good breeding, and un-
consciously becomes amiable and respect
full. But let the mistress speak sharply to
her husband, or scold the children in pub
lie, or let master constantly find fault in
the presence of the servant, and she will
shortly discover that courtesy is not one of
the essentials of the establishment, and
will, most likely, add black looks and UNI
civil words to the general disharmony.
Servants being initiative, there is more
reason that the conduct of employers be
worthy of imitation. If the mistress of a
house be careful of her dress, her speech,
her daily habits, her handmade will, in ali
probability, grow more careful of her own.
But the woman who comes to her break
fast-table with disheveled hair and rump-
leo gown, mas no right to find fault with
the maid for attending the door. bell in u
dirty calico and slovenly shoes. Like
mistress like maid, as well as like master
like man. Unless a good example be set,
there is no cause to complain of servants
for following bad one. AS a rule, they
are ready to learn, though they may be
dull and slow of comprehension. They
would rather improve their condition than
degrade it. They would rather be ladies
than servants. Their ignorance makes
them mistake the false for the true, the bad
for the good. If every mistress would take
pains to set fair example to her maids,
and, aid them, now and then, by timely
and delicate hints, she would soon have
servants who would be, in fact, the help
they are in name.-'Home and Society,"

Too Good to be Lost.

Travelling in his buggy alone not long
ago, in going to one of his appointments,
one of our good brethren in the Presby-
terry of Memphis overlook "foot-pad"
with his carpet-bag in his hand. The
roads were muddy, and he was just at the
time about entering miry bottom. With
the politeness for which lie is noted,
he asked the pedestrian Gan entire strangely
if he would not take scat in the buggy,
until, at least, they had crossed the mud
and the mire. The invitation was readily
accepted, and the conversation for a time
was free and easy, about things ordinary
and general. Presently, however, the good
brother, with view to make the CONVEX
sation profitable, asked the stranger if he
was ready to die. Not knowing the char
acter of the person who had invited him
to take seat with him, and misappre-
hending his meaning, and suspccting foul
play, he waited not to reply, but sprang
from the buggy Immediately, and ran for
life through slush and water. The clerical
brother, wishing to assure the stranger
that he meant no harm, called to him at
the top of his voice to stop. But this only
fastened his speed, and, like scared hare,
he ran until beyond hearing and sight. In
his hasty flight he left behind his carpet
sack, which our brother has now in his
possession, being the richer for his faith
fulness by the addition of coarse shirt
and a pair of threadbare trousers and Il
little "backer."

After detailing small guard to settle with
the prisoners, they started for the home of
their rescued comrade. After the Tories had
started with Mr.. Pickens, his lady, with
the aid of AN Irish servant girl, saddled
their heetest horse and leaving her children
in charge of the faithful Bridget, she was
in few minutes flying at the top of her
horses speed for Sumpter's camp. She
soon reached the spot, and hastily telling the
guards what the matter was, she was quick
ly in the presence of the General. The gal
liant General gave his orders, and in ten
minutes his brave band were in motion and
were going at double quick for the fatal
oak. Mr.. Pickens rode by the side of the
General and guided them on their way
They approached the place with caution,
ana taking their position just before day
light, they awaited their time, when the
foregoing scenes were enacted. After an
excellent breakfast and feeding their horses,
our gallant band left their kind friends, Mr..
Pickens going with his general. Our hero
remained in the service until the end OF the
war, at which time he held colonel's COM
mission, having been promoted from time
to time for gallant conduct. Strange to say
the Tories did not trouble his mansion after
wards. They appeared to fear the terrible
retribution that had already fallen on their
comrades in crime might be their fate, and
they let him alone. After the war was
over Col. Pickens and his accomplished
lady lived long and happily together, and

Why CLOVER IMPROVES THE Son. "a
Professor Voelcker thus explains the action
of Glover in increasing the fertility of soils
All who are practically acquainted with
the subject must have seen the best crops
of wheat are produced by being preceded
by crops of clover growing for seed.
have come to the conclusion that the very
best preparation, the best manure is Il
good crop of clover. A vast amount of
mineral manure is brought within reach of
the corn crop, which otherwise would re-
main in lockedup condition in the soil.
The clover plants take nitrogen from the
atmosphere, and manufacture it into their
own substance which, on decomposition of
the clover roots and leaves produces album
dance of ammonia. In reality, the grow
ing of clover is equivalent to great extent,
to manuring with Peruvian guano, and in
this paper Of mine show that you obtain
larger quantity of manure than in the
largest dose of Peruvian guano which a
farmer would ever think of applying. 1t
is only by carefully investigating subjects
like the one under consideration that posi-
tive proofs are given, showing the correct
ness of intelligent observers in the field.

and numerous communications on the sub
ject make their appearance in the scientific
journals. Nj. Lemoine, in paper read be-
fore the British Association remarks that
the existence of any influence of this kind
must be considered extremely doubtful
In the basin of the Seine it has been shown
that forests, us compared with soil coated
with grass, have no peculiar influence upon
the water courses. The real functions of
forests, in his opinion, consists in their pro-
lection OF the soil by preventing the earth
from being carried away, and in their re-
tarding the flow ottorrent waters. In fact,
in the Alps, the presence of forests prevents
the formation Of torrents and the replant
ing of woods extinguishes torrents already
existing; although, in many cases, merely
turning the soil produces the same effect
In illustration Of the influence of veoeta-
ton in retarding evaporation from the
soil, an experiment was adduced which
consisted in sinking two cylindrical Jars of
the same size into the ground to the deptb
of four inches, leaving them projecting one
inch above the surface One of these was
placed in n newly cleared plot, and the
other where it was partially but not com
pletely protected by the bushes. The
same amount of water was placed in each
jar, and at the expiration of five DAYS if
was found that the evaporation from the
jar in the open grounds had been more
than twice that from the one which was
covered,

That folks got taking me for him,
Andeach for another. Ut

Itreached fearful pitch;
Forone of us was born twin,
And not a soul knew which.
One day, to make the matter worse,
Before our names were fixed,
As we were being washed by nurse,
We got completely mixed;
And thus you see, by fate's decree,
Or rather nurses within,
My brother Jim got christened me,
And | got christened him.
This fatal likeness even logged
My footsteps when Mt school,
And ! was always getting logged,
When John turned out n fool;
put this question, fruitlcssly,
To every one knew,
"What would you do ifyou were me,
To prove that you were your"
Our close resemblance turned the tide
OF my domestic life,
For somehow, my intended bride
Became my brothers wife.
In fact, year after year the same
Absurd mistake went on,
And when died, the neighbors came
And buried brother John.

KNOTS ON PLUM TREES. A correspon-
dent of the American Institute Farmers
Club says that for removing knots from
plum trees, he takes a paint brush, dips it
in spirits of turpentine, and thoroughly
saturates the knot, being careful not to
touch the tree except in the diseased parts.
The turpentine kills the excrescence, and
the tree puts on healthy branches below it.
He burns all branches of diseased trees re-

A WILD HUNTREsS.

The Wheeling Register OF . late date
tells the following story on tie autnorl-
lty of Julia Messenger, OF Wlndrldge,
Green county, Pa, for whose verac'ty
| it vouches: j.,
county Pa, had born to him five child
rem, four girls aud one boy: His name
| is Daniel Lewis. When quite young
the boy and second daughter, named
Lucinda Lewis, developed quite fond
ness for hunting, and were out nearly
all the time. After some four or i've
years the boy quit it, and entered on
the more Industrious pursuits OF life,
but the girl continued in the chase.
Drawing herself more and more from
human intercourse and restraint, she
has become wild woman, fleeing from
the approach of her kind with the speed
of a deer.
During the early years of her solitary
life she used to approach her fathers
house and entice the dogs to follow her,
teaching almost any breed Of dogs TO
become good hunters. In the hope OF
bringing her back to, her home and to
civilization, her brother followed her
and shot the dog she had taken away,
using every inducement to get her back
with him. But all in vain.
For eighteen years, since she was
twelve years Of age, she has lived this
wild life, sleeping in the centres OF
straw stacks during the night and hid
ing in them her provisions during the
Summer the wild and cultivated fruits
she intends for her Winters store. She
is now thirty years old, aud is as wild as
the most untamed denizen OF the forest.
Mr.. Messenger says he at one time,
while out hunting, met her in the woods.
Her long black hair, covering her face
and eyes, was matted with burs and
leaves, and her black flashing eyes
made her a startling picture. She re-
NAMED perfectly still until he got with

and then had in her hands three pleas

thus encountered, she cluded every at

long in the woods that she has become
perfectly wild. Her dress is made of

BLEEDING At THE NosE.-Many of our
readers will thank us for the following
prevention of facial bleeding: There
are two little arteries which supply the
face with blood, one on each side; these
branch of from the main arteries on
each side of the wind-pipe, and running
up towards the eyes, pass over the out
side of the jaw-bonc about two-thirds
of the way back from the chin to the
angles Of the jaws under the ear. Each
Of these arteries, of course, supplies
just one-half of the face the nose being
the dividing line; the left nostril is
supplied with blood from the left ar
terry. and the right nostril from tho
right artery. Now, suppose your nose
bleeds from the right nostril, with the
end Of your finger feel along the outer
edge of the right jaw until you feel the
beating of the artery directly under the
finger, the same as the pulse in your
wrist, then press the finger hard upon
it, thus getting the little fellow in a
tight place between your finger and
jaw-bone; the result will be that not a
drop of blood goes into the side of
your face while the pressure continues;
hence the nose instantly stops bleeding
for want of blood to flow; continue the
pressure for five or ten minutes, and the
ruptured vessel in the nose will by that
time probably contract so that when
You let the blood into them they will
not leak. Bleeding from o, cut or
wound anywhere about the face may
be stopped the same way.-Er.
