JUST ONE DEFECT-A FABLE.
BY JOHN @. SAKE.


Who buys q house, however fine
In architectural design,
And howsoever vast and grand
The prospect which it may command,
May very prudently explore
Concern one condition more;
30 Sadi sings and tells Of one,
Somewhere beneath the Persian sun,
Who thought to buy q mansion where
A foul-mouthed broker praised the sir
Aud all things else, with eager voice:
"You could not make q better choice"
The fellow bawled. "Now, look ye here!
I've lived next door this twenty year,
And know the house is fairly worth
Ten times the price! There's not on earth
finer building! Just inspect
The place, and mention one defect"
"why, truly said the man, 81 see
But one." "Indeed! what may it BET"
The house should not reckon dear,
think-if yours uere not 80 nedr!"

Anew WAY to Wash Linen,

A new mode of washing linen has been
introduced and adopted in Germany.
The operation consists in dissolving two
pounds of soap in about three gallons of
water as hot as the hand can bear, and
adding to this one tablespoonful of tur-
pentine and three of liquid ammonia !;
the mixture must then be well stirred
and the linen stepped in it for two or
three hours, taking care to cover up the
vessel which contains them as nearly
Theoretically as possible. The clothes
are afterward washed out and rinsed in
the usual way. The soap and water may
be reheated and used the second time,
but in that case half tablespoonful of
turpentine and a tablespoonful of am
monia must be added. The process is
said to cause great economy in time,
labor and fuel.

CHARLES MATTHEWS, the veteran actor,
says that as long as he can afford an au-
dience amusement he will stick to the
stage.

will of dry food and We hold it is the
true policy of the dairyman to induce
his COWS to eat as much as possible, as
the more they take in by way of food,
the more will be given out in the form
of milk. To stint cows at all in an
ample supply of proper food to keep up
nutrition, and promote milk secretion,
can only be called ga penny wise and
pound foolish" policy. 1t will not pay.
When roots are also boiled or steamed,
the nutritive matter they contain is more
fully developed, and the same weight of
roots produces larger results, both in
the condition of the COW and in her milk
secretion. Farmer.
