A Few Household Hints.

Never allow door to creak for want of
oil, or to shut hard so as to require slam
ming to make it latch. For this purpose
pass around once week at some regular
time, say Saturday evening or Monday
morning, with drop of oil on feather,
or on the tip of the finger, and give every
rubbing part, latch, hinge, &c, a touch.
The door and walls will last longer than
when necessarily pounded and battered,
and the disagreeable noise will not make
sick persons worse or annoy well ones.
Scissors sometimes work hard, when
tenth of grain Of oil, touched along
the cutting edges to make them move
easily over each other, will improve them
greatly.
Ventilation would be more easily accom-
plished and more certainly performed,
and rooms kept with purer and healthier
air, if windows were made to slide easily.
If not hung by pulleys and weights, add
good freely working catches. Never per-
NIT broken pane in house.
Cellars should be kept constantly clean
as much SO as your parlor. 1t is the
easiest thing in the world, if you attend to
it daily; and only becomes heavy task
when you allow a months accumulations
ON the same principle that the boy who
combed his head once a summer was
amazed that any one could do it daily.
Once week, go over all your house and
outhouses, and see what wants attention
to keep all in perfect order. You will
find something every time, and attend to
it promptly.-Courtry Gentleman.

Nocturnal Farming.

A young friend of ours, who for ten
years previously to 1871 was connected
with the commissary department OF the
army, south and west, has lately been re-
quired to take the position OF Commits
sary General on farm not many miles
from this point Being merchant also,
his duties on the farm requires some care
ful squirting through the morning and
evening twilight. OF course he must be
up early; that was leading point with
him, and one on the achievement Of
which he believed he excelled most veter-
ans about him. Early rising, In fact, be-
came his forte, and sort of passion with
him, regardless of the quiet enjoyment
OF the rest of the household.
One very rainy night the family were
awakened bv the General coming down
stairs in regular business style. He put
on his rubbers, went to the barn, drew
water, gave the hogs their breakfast, and
then prepared the "slop" for the cows.
He was then heard to take the milk pail,
and away he tramped towards the COW
pasture. The family then hearing the
clock striking the lonely hour of one, be-
gan TO suspect that the General, having
had his first nap, had supposed the morn
ing nigh, and was out on duty. A sister
therefore, after due counsel with her
neither, made haste to go after the young
man 80 that he should not disturb the
occupants of the fields as he had those OF
the house. But she was too late, and
found the usually quiet cows running and
shutting, while the General was gently
and so0thingly calling after them, and
shaking the bail Of his slop pail to at
tract their notice I'm his nrinciDle of as

Woman knows that beauty rather than

A man may talk with his lips OF the latter
to his ady-love, but the keenness OF the
woman knows that he is thinking OF the
former in his heart. All women have an
innate desire to please their bea.r. They
are fond of admiration, hence one of their
longings is to be beautiful. The grand

Light in the Room for the Sick.-The
late physician to the Emperor of Russia
made careful study of the effect of light
as curative agent in the hospital of St.
Petersburg. He discovered that the num-
Der of patients who were cured in rooms
properly lighted was four times as large
as it was when they were confined in
dark rooms.
Dried Meat for Medicinal Purposes.
The american Journal Of Pharmacy
says: 1t is prepared by Daneucy, of Bor-
deaux, by cutting fresh meat finely,
spreading upon muslin, drying rapidly in
a current of air and rubbing into brown
powder, which is almost inodorous, and
has slightly saline taste. 1t is really
taken by patients, spread upon bread, or
teaspoonful of it mixed with a
cupful of broth or soup, or by children,
If baked into biscuits.
Danger from Wet Clothes.-Few per-
sons understand fully the reason why wet
clothes exert such chilling influence.
1t is simply this: Water, when it evap-
crates, carries off an immense amount of
heat, in what is called the latent form.
One pound of water in vapor contains as
much heat as nine or ten pounds of liquid
water, and all this heat must, of course,
be taken from the body. If our clothes
are mo;stened with three pounds of water,
that is, if by wetting they are three
pounds heavier, these three pounds will,
in drying, carry off as much heat as
would raise three gallons of ice-cold
water to the boiling point. Ne wonder
that damp clothes chill us.-Handicraft.

men, among whom was Colonel D. Wyatt
Aiken, who related many Interesting Incl
denis of bis varied and valued and valuable

vised the Southern farmers to 60 into sheep
raising. assuring Them that 1t was more lucra-
tive Than cotton planting! While cotton
sells at nineteen cents per pound, wool sells at
forty cents. He had seen sheep In Vermont du-
ring the past fall that were valued at i've hun
dred dollars, one thousand dollars, and eveH
ten thousand dollars apiece: South Carolina
and Georgia are emlDeBtly fitted for sheep
raising, and that animal could be reared at an
insignificant cost. He did not think that cat.
tie raising would pay In South Carolina. He
had tried 1t and found that 1t did not succeed.
At four o'clock, Colonel @. W. Howard was
introduced by the president. Colonel Howard
was formerly divine, and during the period
