Boys who disturb camp meetings BY
crying "Amen in the wrong place, aud
relnarking "Glory" with more zeal
than Judgment, should read and pom

Kansas. These thirteen III II vised
boys were guilty, 50 the story goes, OF
disturbing II Kansas camp meeting 10y
insisting upon shouting "Amen'
when very muscular preacher, who
brides himself on his voice, was sing
Ing hymn. The preacher bore II for
some time, but finally becoming iilled
with righteous wrath, he descended
from the pulpit, and, never once in,c,,
rupted his hymn, successfully reversed
and spanked the thirteen snail
boys. As hisavenging hand descended
and the dust of the small boys filled
the air, the rest of the congregation
shouted in rapture, and encouraged
him with Ego on, brother, 90 ON
Then he returned to the pulpit, still
singing, and those boys went half a
mile away, behind haystack aud lay
down with their faces to the ground,
weeping bitterly.

A Darwinisn Monkey.

Another illustration of Darwinism
was recently furnished in the case o.
two newly arrived monkeys from
China, which were lodged in San
Francisco bar-room, one of them being
kept in a cage, and the other left at
liberty. During the night the latter
homunculus first considerably handed
q bottle of rum to his imprisoned
brother, who thereupon became coma
tosely intoxicated, ana then proceeded
to get frightfully drunk and disorderly
himself, breaking decanters and glasses,
throwing ali empty bottle at the head
of the bar keeper ON that officials en-
trance, and otherwise COMFORTING him
self, as his master remarked, "tOr all
the world just like Christian"

times day, according to age. Lettuce,
onion tops, fresh grass, chopped fine,
should be given them at least once a
day.
Eggs.-A good egg is made up of ten
parts shell, sixty parts white. and
thirty parts yolk. The white Of an
egg contains eighty-six per cent. of
water, the yoke tifty-two per cent. The
average weight of an egg i two
ounces.
Cold ia the Throat.-This dis g is
manifest in fowls bya noise, as Il some
substance had stuck in the til at

following remedy is highly recon-
mendei. 4 tablespoonful Of water
containing two drops of the tinc;are of
aconie. given two or three times 4 day,
and plenty of fresh water TO drink.
Buying Eggs.-There are many rca-
sons why people desire to buy eggs in
stead Of fowls; the principle one i, the
great difference in the cost of first class
birds and their eggs. The money
necessary to purchase such fowls can
not be spared, and start may be gain
ed by purchasing eggs, with much less
money.

4 Regular Guy.

One of tie dueerest Old fellows
among the first settlers in Boston WIS
Gov. Beliingham. There are many
curiou; stories tod about him, but the
most singular is that respecting his
marriage. 1t is related by Gov. VIM
throp in his diary, and was written at
the time tue affair took place. BIZ
iingham was Governor OF the Colony
of Massachusetts Bay in 16fl. He was
fifty years old. i'nere WAS then Il
young lady in Boston named Penelope
Pelham, who was twenty-five years Of
age, and was engaged 10 be married to
a yJIng man who iF1s 4 friend OF tire
Governor. and lived iii the Governors
house. BY what arts we know not,
but il is certain that The Governor per-
snaded Hiss Penelope that he loved her
best, and 50, one day, while the young
man supposed that MS sweetheart was
true to him, the Governor 3ud the
y0nng lady were married. But the
stag ular part OF L W.is, that a the Gov
cTuJr wanted 20 keep his lj,lia affair
secret, and perhaps BECAUSE he could
think Of no Clergyman tO whom he
dared apply to perform the ceremony,
he married himself! Ne may imagine

Poultry NOtea.

The following, from the AmerictM

those who have just engaged in the
business OF rearing fowls:
Rules for Rearing Ghickens.-1. Keep
young chickens in warm, dry coop.

they can get it easily. Keep them
away from decaying fruit and vegeIa-

food for young chickens: One egg,

WORMS IN THE FLOWER PoTs.-We
have often heard ladies, and even pro-
fessional gardens, complaining OF the
abundance of various species of worms
inhabiting flowers pots, thereby injur-
ing the growth of plants growing there
in. If little fre-li !..,Ie is dissolved
in the water applied IL the soil, nearly
every species of worm that is found in
such position will be killed and the
plants not injured. Tobacco will also
destroy most kinGs of worms: but
lime is preferable, because it aids in
dissolving the plant fool in the soil,
thereby stimulating groHth. Water
ing the plants with lime water once a
week will be sufficient TO kill worms
in the soil, as well as stimulate growth.

While they are coming on in the pots,
leaves and little manure are put up

can easily be ascertained by turning

q Few Hints About Sowing Flow
er seeds,

The chief cause Of failure in the cul-
ture Of flower seeds lies not so much in
poor seeds as in the manner of sowing
and subsequent treatment Of plants.
The soil, if choice can be had, should
be Of light, friable character, that will
not bake in the sun; otherwise, none
but the most vigorous varieties have
strength to push through their hard
covering. Leaf mould, if at all pro-
durable, is excellent, mixed at the rate
of one-third of the mould to two-thirds
good rich soil. Sprouting seeds do not
require rich soil SO much as they do
something light and mellow, into
which the tiny roots will easily pene-
trate. Another great cause of failure
lies in covering the seed too deep. Few
Of the fine flower seed can come up if
covered more than one-sixteenth Of an
inch. The rule with many florists is
TO cover the seed its own depth-in
fact, the less the amount OF covering
the greater the success viii be. as
rule. Having covered the seed, gently
press the surface with fat troWel,
board, or anything flat, care being ia
ken that the bed is perfectly level, 9th
erWise the seed will be apt to wash
into the hoiIows and come up il
clusters.
Some seeds will not germinate in 4
temperature where others will thrive.
Pansvs. if sown during the heat of
summer, months, will either decay o.,
if they sprout, the plants will be feeble
and sicllly; whereas, Petunias or POr
tuIaca, under the same treatment, will
grow finely.
Florists usually SOW Pansy in Sep
tember, wintering them over under
glass, making strong. healthy plants
tor setting in early spring.
Care should be taken that the soil
does not become dry, or the spEoutinG
germ wiz wither, or if it grows at all,
will be feeble and sickIy.
It will well repay al extra trouble 10
plant seeds of Asters, BalsaTs, Petu-
nias, etc, III box in the house, about
april 18th, which will make good
giants for transplanting into the flow
er-bed in May, and will be stronger
and flower more freely for having been
transplanted. Be sure and not let the
plants suffer by overcrowding. but
thin out when quite small, leaving the
strongest and best-they will repay
the less Of the rest.
