The question of compulsory attendance at college
exercises has recently been the subject of in
teresting discussion, in which Presidents Eliot,
McCosh. and Barnard have taken part. The pro-
posal to limit the liberty which the young gentle-
men at Harvard have always enjoyed, Of improving
their opportunities not, just they fit is re-
garded as rather daring and revolutionary expert
ment. President Barnard, however, shows that
substitute for compulson has been tried with entire
success at Columbia College, the simple rule Is
that any marked irreguarity Of attendance on the
daily exercises should debar the student from the
privilege of attending tho stated periodical examina-
tons through which every candidate for graduation
is obliged by statute to pass, and to pass satsfac
torly before he can receive a degree in arts' The
limit of tolerated absences is put at one-fourth of
the total number of exercises in that department
This insures full classes and at the same time
tho students dignity.

Classification BILL TO which we referred few
days ago, will become a law; but measures
supposed to be dead and comfortably buried
have surprising way in this Legislature of
coming up when they are not expected. If
this particular railway scheme should show
itself again, we beg some honest legislator to
bear in mind what we said the other day, that
while there is much to be said for the principle
of classification, there is no excuse for legis-

Atlantic and Great Western Railway, which would

There is a slight possibility that the arrest
of the bond thief, James Brady, may help to
clear up the painful mystery which has sur
rounded the violent death Of the late Capt
Colvocoresses. The clue is slight one, to be
sure but the recovery of $4,000 in United
States bonds from this daring thief seems to
point toward the theory which the police have
formed in the case. 1t is, at least, likely that

Cure for a Horses Sprained
Shoulder.

Mr.. 7. Petrie writes to the RU-
RAL New YoRKER:-"I give the
following recipe which has prov
ed a perfect cure in every case
under my observation the past
forty years Make a small in
clsion in the skin at the top OF
the shoulder blade; loosen the
skin from the flesh around the
incision with a smoth stick, about
one inch around the hole; place
the mouth to the hole in a posi-
ton that will force the wind
through, the hole under the skin.
Blow until the skin is raised from
the flesh, which will leave the
skin puffed up by the wind. Take
a round piece of soft common up
per leather, twice the size OF the
hole in the skin, with three.
eighths hole in the center; place
the leather under the skin and a
stick over the leather through
the skin on each side; tie with a
thread, leaving the opening over
the leather half an idch for the
discharge of matter. The effect.
of a shoulder sprain is clotted
blood uuder the shoulder blade.
The above described seton will
remove the clotted blood and ef-
feet a cure.

Treatment Of Hams.

To preserve hams through the
summer make a number of cotton
bags, a little larger then your
hams. After the hams are well
smoked, place them in bags, and
get the best of sweet, well made
hay; cut it with a knife, and
with your hand press it well a
round the hams in the bags; tie
the bags with strings, put ON a
card of the year, to show their
age. and hang them up in gar
ret or some dry room, and they
will last five years, and will be
better for boiling than on the
day you hung them up. This
method costs but little, and the
bags will last forty years. No
flies or bugs will trouble the
hams it the hay is well pressed
around them; the sweating of the
hams will be taken up by the
hay, and it will impart a fine fla
yor to the hams. The hams should
be treated in this way before the
hot weather sets in.

Bog SPAWN.

A gentleman in Sewickly has
a horse which has a larg swelling
sn the inner part of each knee or
hock,joint, and small Jumps on
the vein on each side of the hook
joints, ,and asks the Agriculturist
if it is spawn and what shall he
do with it? 1t is spawn, known
as bog SPAWN, caused by over
wrok or over-driving, or sprain.
1t consists of an excessive secre-
ton of the fluid by which the
joint is fabricated, andif it will
not yield to the application of 10
dine ointment, rubbed ON the
part morning and night, it should
be treated by a surgeon. Some
times the swelling is punctured
and tightly bandaged, but this is
dangerous in the hands of any
but surgeon, and if improperly
performed it might permanently
injure the joint. There is no at
tendant lameness, and persever-
ance with the iodine ointment
may possibly bring about a
cure.

A Child's Faith.


A Sick mother and her little
girl were living in very wretch
ed attic. On a cold and dark
morning the poor child awoke
and remembered that there was
no bread for breakfast. Nettie's
mother had often told her that
the God who feeds the little birds
will not refuse bread to a little
child who asks him for it. So she
slipped quietly out ofbed that she
might not awake her mother, and
kneeling down by the bed side,
said slowly, "Give us this day
our daily bread" ems
The bare room seemed to mock
the child's prayer, but she had
no sooner asked God for bread
than she determined to fetch it.
Wrapping her shabby cloak
about her, she went down the
long staircase, and through the
dark alley; into the busy street
No one noticed the hungry little
girl, and she was beginning to
wonder where God kept his
bread, when a sudden turn of
the street showed her large and
well-filled bakers shop. "This,"
thought .Nettie, ssis the place.
The big baker looked kindly at
the little eager face that entered
his shop so confidently.
"I've come for it," she said.
"Come for whatsn
"My daily Bread" she said.
pointing to the tempting loaves:
"I'll take two, if you please
one for mother and one for me-"
"Allright,n said the bakor, put
ting them into a bag and giving
them to his little customer, who
started at once into the
street.
"Stop, you little rogue!" he
SAID, roughly; "where is your
money.
81 haven't any," she said sim
ply. H2
Haven't any!' haven't any he
repeated angrily; ayou little
thief, what brought you here,
then2''
The hard words frightened the
child who, bursting into tears
said: "Mother is sick, and I
am so hungry. In my prayers l
said, 'Give us this day. our daily
BREAD and then l thought God
meant me to fetch it, and so l
came.
The kindhearted baker was
softned by the child's simpe
tale, and he took her back to hle
mother with well-filled basket.
As the poor sufferer received the
unexpected supply, she softly
said, ''The God of the fatherless
answers prayer" and the baker,
turning to Nettie, said, 81 ought
to call you ssFaith,' my child.''

Small Seed.

The season has now come to
SOW all sorts of small seeds, both
in the vegetable and flower gar
den, and care should. be taken
to cover them just right. If the
weather and soil be dry, then the
seed can safely be covered a lit
tie deeper than though the soil
and weather was wet. Small
seeds often fail to come up, and
the faults all laid at the door of
the seedsmen of whom the same
was purchased, when in fact the
seed was all right, and it was the
fault of the sower or the weather,
or possibly both. 1t is very diff
fieult to lay down an exact rule
for the covering of every small
seed as SO much depends upon
the weather. When the soil is
moist, a very thin covering will
be sufficient; and that should be
made very fine.
We often think it best, to sift
the soil with. which we GOV er
some of the delicate seeds. If
the soil is quite dry we put on
more and press it down rather
firmly. If the weather is very
dry and hot, we some times spread
over the beds, where delicate
flower seeds have been sown,
meadow moss. well saturated with
water, and this cover will pre-
vent evaporation and keep the
soil under it in good, moist con-
dition for many days. When this
is done, it should be watched be
and removed as soon as the
plants make their appearance.
1t is a very good plan to soak
some seeds in tepid water for a |
few hours before sowing. Carrot |
seed treated in this way comes
quicker. After soaking it over
night, dry it off just enough to
have it run through the machine,
and time will be gained.

Only q Pin.

Only two or three days ago, al
overyseer in the mills found {
pin which cost the company
about three hundred dollars.
"Was it stoleng" asked Susie
~ suppose it must have been We.
ry handsome. Was it a diamond
pin?"
"Oh, no, my dear! not by any
means. 1t is just such a pin as
people buy everyday, and use
without stint. Here is one upon
my dress"
"Such pin as that cost three
hundred dollarsln exclaimed
John. 81 don't believe it,
"But mamma say it is a true
story" interposed Susie.
"Yes, 1 know it to be true.
And this is the way the pin hap
pened to cost so much:
"You know that calicoes, after
they are printed and washed.

passed over heated rollers. Well
by some misehance, a pin drop
ped SO as to lie upon the princi-
pal roller, and indeed became
wedged into it, the head standing
out a little way from the sur
face. -
"Over and over went the roller,
and round and round went the
cloth, winding at length upon
still another roller, until the
piece was measured off. Then
another piece began to be dried
and wound; and so on until a
hundred pieces had been counted
Off. These were not examined
Immediately, but removed from
the machinery, and laid aside.
"When, at length, they came to
be inspected, it was found that
there were holes in every piece
throughout the web, and only
three quarters of a yard apart.
Now, in each piece there were
from thirty-five to fortyfve yards;
and at twelve cents a yard that
would count up to about five
hundred dollars. aslI
"Of course the goods could not
be classed as perfect goods; so
they were sold as remnants, at
less than half the price they
would have brought had it not
been for the hidden pin.
"Now, it seems to me, that

her playmate one who is unkind, |

roller which took to its bosom
the pin. Without their being
