THE PHILOSOPHY OF MA RRIA GE.

What Theodore Parker knew abou
the "blessed estate of matrimony'' is
told in this extract:
"Young people marry their opposite
in temper and general character, and
such marriage is commonly good
match. They say, My black eyes re-
uuire to be wed with blue, and my over
vehemcnce requires to be little modi-
fed with somewhat of dullness and re-
serve When these opposites come to-
gether to be we'd, they do not know it :;
each thinks the other just like itself.
Old people never marry their opposites !;
they marry their similars, and from cal
culation. Each of these two arrange
ments is very proper. In their long
journey these two young oppositeS will
fall ont by the way great many times /;
but each will charm the other back
again, and by and by they will be agreed
us to the place they will go to and the
road they will go by, and become recon-

BE Kind to Your Horse.

However often horse stumbles, from
any cause whatever, do not shout at
him, for the animal breads to be chidcd.
Do not shake the reins, for his mouth
is much more sensitive than your lips
are. Do not use the whip, for the horse
is naturally 50 timid that the moment
you begin to correct him, he becomes so
terrified that he loses control of his own
reasoning faculties, and in his blind ter
ror plunges, and rears, and fails to obey.
The right course to pursue is to speak
quietly but firmly to the creature. Com
fort the trembling animal with the
magic of your voice, and bring back
those perceptions which help your horse
to guard against repeating the act of
stumbling. This manner of procedure
is far more humane and reasonable than
to yell at the animal, or lash her fierce
ly, thus frightening and bewildering her,
instead of teaching her what is expected
of her.

narrowing Wheat.

The New York U'orld says: Har-
rowing winter wheat in spring was prac-
ticed successfully in Western New York
in the palmy days of wheat-growing
there. But it has not been II general
practice among wheat growers. Latter
ly, the discussion of the advantages and
disadvantages has occupied space III our
agricultural papers. SO far, we have
seen no testimony against and much in
favor of the practice from those who
have tried it !; and just now we came
across, in letter from an American in
France, the statement that French
farmers are pretty generally adopting
the plan of giving few strokes of the
harrow at this season, to their winter
wheat" The writer adds that it is
strange this practice relative to wheat
is new, while it has been adopted on
artificial meadows and lucern from
time immemorial, not only to eradi-
cate moss but to freshen up the spring
crop.

The evidence given ut an inquest upon
the victims of railroad collision near
Yonkers, New York, exhibited the fact
that color blindness is more frequent
than is generally supposed. Thus, in
reference to the signal light at Yonkers,
six witnesses testified that it was red
and five that it was white. The accident
was caused by locomotive running
down the track supposed to be clear,
but which really was occupied by an adj
vancing train. Under these circum-
stances the color of the signal, whether
of danger or of safety, was matter of
Importance in the investigation.
The difficulty, however, of arriving at
the proper conclusion was so great that
the jury brought in two verdicts-that
of the majority finding that nobody was
to blame, while that of the minority
censured the engineer of the runaway
locomotive. This color blindness may
also have affected the engineers of the
respective locomotives as well as the
spectators of the accident, and the cir
cumstance should act us warning to
railway companies to examine their en-
ployes not only as to their qualifications
as mechanics, but also as to the imper-
fections of their eyes.

Nothing of absolute certainty can be
concluded with reference to the case of
Capt. Hall but there is sufficient upon
which to base a very probable conclu-
sion That Buddington, the sailing
master, was an opponent of the plans of
Hall is shown from the antagonism de-
veloped by the former in their inter
course, and also from Il rumor, tele-
graphed from Washington, that his char
acter was known before the expedition
started, at which time, the very thing
that seems to have occurred was fore
told by somebody who appears to have
known Buddington. The testimony of
al, who know Hall is to the effect that
he was not man who would be liable
to apoplexy; and there is the less reason
to believe this when it is understood that
such complaint is of rare, if not i'm
possible, occurrence in the Arctic re-
gions. The apopleXy story is not at all
credible, and few people will hesitate to
reject it.
The points in this distressing affair
may very easily be summed up, as fol-
lows
There was a strong feeling of oppo-
sition ON the part of Buddington against
Hall.
The latter died soon after drinking
coffee which the sailing master had the
opportunity of indicating.
Burlington, soon after, managed to
get rid of all that portion of the crew
that had special liking for Capt. Hall.
Here are sufficient facts to make out a
strong case of murder so far as Hall is
concerned and attempted wholesale
murder, so far as relates to the men and
women left on the ice,-against Bud
dington. Should that individual ever
emerge from the frozen ocean, he will
find that his reception, at first, will be
anything but flattering and that he will
need very strong evidence to convince
the public he is not guilty of some mon
strous crimes Chicigo Times.

MANY people have argued that is well
to name boys after good and great men,
not rs compliment to the latter, but
with the idea that constant mention of
the name will somehow inspire the
youngsters to initiate the lives of their
illustrious namcsakes. That such is
not always, if ordinarily, the effect,
seems evident from the following state
ment published in Richmond paper :
Within the past twelve months individ-
uals bearing the following distinguished
names have been brought before the
Police Court and punished according to
their various offcnses Ethan Allen,
Thomas Jefferson and Ben Mccullough,
for fighting John Randolph and John
B. Alley, for theft John Adams, for
felony Henry Clay, for beating his
wife; W. G. Bryant, for an unfortunate
amour; Samuel johnson and r. E. Lee,
for vagrancy; J. j. Crittenden, James
Madison, Thomas Payne and John Ran
dolph, for being drunk, and Charles j.
Fox and Edmund Yates for using pro-
fame language on the streets. Napoleon
Bonaparte has been three times brought
to the bar of justice, and eleven persons
bearing the name of the father of our
country have occupied the prisoner s
box.

Cabbage Worms,

Put ten cents worth of copperas into
sprinkling pot; put on warm water !;
let it stand till cool, and sprinkle the
cabbage at night before the dew falls.
This will do for 100 or 100 heads.
Sprinkle the same as you would floor
to lay the dust. The dew at night will
wash off the sprinkling water. Sprinkle
the cabbages twice or three times a
week. Mr.. Soudard raised 4 hundred
in this way last year, and 1 have eaten
some OF his cabbages, which were nice.

FARM AND HOME.
Shall We Paint the Barn y

The Ohio Farmer says: 1--WE woald
not advise painting large or stock
barn, unless it is finished in different
stvle from the ordinary method of con-
structing them, but the horse barn, car
riage- house, dairy-house, poultry house,
ETC., should be kept coated with some
identifying material. When one OF
these buildings is new, with siding
planed, it should by all means receive
at least three coats of oil-paint and
here the great expense ends, for one coat
once in four or five years thereafter will
be all that is required to keep 1t IN Il
good state of preservation, and hand
some in appearance. Old buildings may
be washed with cheap yet durable
material which will give the same eff
feet to the eyes as the best of paints. A
peck of good quicklime Stacked in tub,
with pound of old grease, tallow, lard,
or even oil, and little rock salt, added
while Stacking, and well worked in, will
make durable coating, and sufficient
for painting large surface. The grease
prevents the penetration of moisture,
and the salt hardens the coat. 1t is best
to dissolve the salt in warm water and
pour this brine upon the slackening lime
to thin it. Now this material may be
made any color or shade of color desired
by the use of common pigments, or use
snow-whitc. A delicate straw colormay
be made by adding ochre; pink OF
peach blow by adding Venetian red OF
red lead an orange, by using both
chrome yellow or red lead; or dulial
shade by using yellow ochre and Nene-
tan red. A stone color mAy be made
by the use of lumber, OF ochre and a
sprinkling of lampblack.

An IMMENSE CARA YANSARi.

The Grand Pacific Hotel, which is to
be opened in Chicago next week, is one
of the largest hotels in the world. The

connection with the plumbing work
there were used mile and three quar-
tiers of iron-soil pipe, and nearly a
much of brass hot water pipe, GO,9S
pounds of lead pipe, 5000 pounds o
solder. There went into the building
over eight miles of gas-pipc, and Their

The Rorat South Land says: w.
McNulty, who lives near Summit, Miss,
has lot of rails which were made by
his father about the year 1920. AL
though they are SO years old, they are
in good state of preservation and will
last many years to come. They were
made of chestnut. This timber, though
rarely seen now, was, some fifty years
ago, very abundant in this section. 1t
is supposed to have been killed by an in
sect-probably Il species Of the borer-
which now infests the apple, pear, peach
and other trees.

The Hartford Co,r0nt, having thor,

no engine can run more than sixty miles
an hour. 1t adds that some of the fast
est runs have been twenty-six miles in
thirty minutes, from Springfield to Hart
ford eighteen miles in twenty minutes,
from Meriden to New Haven fifty -four
miles in fifty eight minutes, on the Bos-
ton and Albany road. One, at least. OF
these trips was made solely against
time.
