ARRESTING DECAY OF POTATOES.
Prof. Church, of Cirencester, the eminent
agricultural chemist, spBounces that sui
phite Of lime Ippears TO exercise ve-y re-
markable influence in srresting the spread
Of decay iu potatoes affected by the potato
disease. In one experiment the salt was
busted over some tubers, partially decayed
from this cause, as they were being slowed
away. Some months afterWard the pots-
toes were found to have suffered no further
injury. A similar trial with powdered line
proved to be much less effective. The sui
phite of lime is powerful chemical agent,
which is iced to prevent cider, wine and
beer turning sour, to kill parasitic insects
and fungi, and prevent the decay of fruits
as well as potatoes.

GO TT ALONE.
By JOHN q. SAKE.


There's game much in fashion, l think it's cali
ed Eucre,
Though I've never played it for pleasure or lu-
In which, when the cards are in certain condi-
The players appear to have changed their posi-
tons.
And one ofthem cries in confident tone,
VI think might venture to go 1t alone.
While watching the game, It's whim OF the
bards,
A moral to draw from the skrmish in cards,
And to fancy he finds in the trivial STRIFE
Some excellent hints for the battle OF ilfe,
Where, whether the prize be ribbon or throne,
The winner is he who can Ego it alone
When the great Gallileo proclaimed that the
world
Ina regular orbit was cesselessly whirled,
And got-not a convest for all of his pains,
But only derision, and prison and chains
at moves for all that" was his answering tone
For he knew, like the earth, he could Ego it
alone.
When Kepler, with intellect piercing afar,
Discovered the laws of each planet and star,
And Doctors who ought to have Landed his
name.
Derided his learning and blackeRed hisfame;
81 can wait" he replied, still the truth you
shall own"
For he felt in his heart he could "go it alone"
Alas for the player who idly depends
In the struggle oflife upon kindred and friends,
Whatever the value of blessings like these,
They can never atone for inglorious ease,
Nor comfort the coward who finds with groan
That his crutches have left him to 'fgo it alone"
There is something, no doubt, in the hand you
may hold,
Health, family culture, wit, beauty and gold;
AS each, in its way, most excellent card
Yet the game may be lost with all these for your
own,
Unless you've the courage to Ego it alone "
In battle or b. siness, whatever the game,
In law or in love it is ever the same;
In the struggle for power, or scran BILE for pelf,
Let this be your motto "Rely on yoursrltF ~
For whether the prize be ri bbon or throne,
The victor is he who can ego it alone"

A REVOLUTION IN HoUsG PA1NTING.-Tbe Gath
olic Mirror says: The advertisement of the New
Jersey Enamel Paint Company has been some
time in our columns, and it may seem strange
that it is only to day call special attention 10
it. Our reason for this is that we do not like
recommending thing unless we know it is good.
We are pleased to find thai The agent Mr.. G. P.
Knight, was of our way of thinking, and wished
above all that the paint should be tested so that
the editor could give his conscientious opinion
of its merits. Having had ;his test made in our
own household we have no hesitaucy in saying
that the Enamel Paint comes up fully to all that
is claimed for it. Ip the country especially, where
it is difficult to procure the necessary ingredient
for mixing paint, and skiliul workmen to apply
it, the Enamel Paint will grove Invaluable, as it
is already prepared, and be applied by any
one possessing ordinary Judgment. For plain
work in private dwellirps churches and school
houses, it will prove very economical as we'll as
beautiful. One gallor of this paint will cover
twenty square yards, giving two coats Our
friends may safely give il trial without fear Of
disappointment.

ent Enamel paint, for which G P. knight, No.
SO West Lombard street, is agent and to testify
to Is superiority over any and all other paints
for similar uses. In no private dwelling can
paint possibly be subjected to the very severe
test it undergoes at this establishment where
during daily cleaning, soap and soda are
constantly applied to il, and ve. it appears rs
sound and fresh as when first put on Of the
numerous ad santages it possesses over other
paints will mention lis being mixed and ready
for in quantities to suit purchasers its quick
ly drying properties, which saves much time in
the execution of work where paint is needed,
and its very perceptible Tenacity, which impars
beauty and durability to the objects on which it
is used. AS snch | most earuesiiy recommend
