How soil Was Made.

| Prot. AgaSsiz says tlIat al ~"
materials on which agricultural pro-
gress depends are deeomposed rocks,
not so much those that unGerlje the sell.
but those on the surface, and ground 70
powder by the glaciers. Ice all oy-T
the continent is the agent that h>s
ground out more soil than all oLie'
agencies put together. The penctr--
ton of water INTO the rocks, fOres.s.
running water and baking SUNS have
done something, but the glaciers
mere. In q former age the whole
United States was covered with ice
several thousand feet thick g; AMI the
ice moving from north to soath by the
attraction of the tropical warmth OF
pressing weight of the snow and Ice
behind, ground the rocks over
which was called soil. These masses
of ice can be tracked by the hunter.
lie has made a study OF them in tie
country as far south as Alabama, but
has observed the same phenomenon
IN Europe, particularly in Italy, where,
among TIE Alps, glaciers are now IN
progress. The stones and roc&s
ground and polished by the glaciers
can easily be distinguished from those
scratched by running water. The
angular boulders found in meadows,
and the terraces of rivers no
reached by water, can be accounted
for only in this way.

A DOG was aeeidently present dur
ing devine service in a Scotch kirk,
where the worthy minister was in the
habit of speaking very loud in the
sermon, aud, in fact, when he got
warmed with his subject, of shouting
almost at the top Of his voice. The
dog, who 10 the early part had been
very quiet, becs me quite excited, as is
not uncommon with some dogs when
hearing nois O.; and from whining
and whining, "a the speakers voice
rose loud and strong, at last began to
bark and howl. The minister, natu-
rally much annoyed at the interrupt
tion, called upon the beadle to put out
the dog; and he at once expressed
his readiness to obey the order, but
could not resist the temptation to look
up to the pulpit. and to say, very sig

NEARING THE SHORE

An old man sits IN a worn arm chair,
White as snow Is his thin, white hair,
Furrowed his cheek by time and care.
And back and forth II sways.
There's faraway from his dim, dim eve
Which tells OF thoughts Of the long gone by
For he sits once more meath a cloudless sky
Andin childhood merriIy plays.
He rests his cheek on the head of his cane,
And, happily smiling, dreams over again
OF that home, the brook, the meadow, tn,
lane. -.
Dreamed all with q vision clear.
Then childhood yields unto man hoods place
And he lOoks once more in his bright, brigh
face,
And down in the starry eyes he can trace
A -ove remembered and dear.
Then he wakes and sighs. '.It seems but 6
dream,
That comes to me now like golden gleam,
Or the shimmering glow of the suns las
beam,
But It's pleasant to think It o'er.
That youth was 50 sweet, but now is past.
Those days of love were too precious TO last
But over yonder their pleasures are cast,
And am nearing thatshore.
He Is gliding on in his little boat;
Der the calm, still water they peacefully
float,
But echo full soft brings a well known note
From the land he has left behind.
But time will row back for him no more,
And he gazes away to that other shore,
And knows when the voyage of life shall be
DER,
That his dream beyond he will flnd,
rhe seeds of youth which in youth We SOW
Adown through the isles of the future Will
glow
And shed on age beautiful glow,
As they come in memory's gleam.
owed faces will C c)me to dimming sight;
iweet words will echo In day dreams bright;
And circle old age with. their halos o: light
Ashley mingle IN beautiful dreams-

EVILS OF USING TOBACCO.

The following article, tsken from
the Country Gentleman, so thrilliDgly
sets forth the fearful results OF using
tobscco, that the most hardened sin
ner must repent and hasten to be
wise after reading il: "First expert
meut, a hog was shut Cp IN q tight
pen, snd his only feed wss one-half
pound Of tobacco Q dag. IN one
week he hsd lost four pounds. Second.
a mule was Plsced in a still without
food. Two plugs of tobacco were
placed before her, twice day. She
grew gradually y restive. On the third
day one plug was forced down her
throat, when she tore the expert
menter's ear with her teeth, showing
the ad effect tobscco hiss on ones
disposition. 1t was then found nee
esssry to muzzle her so that she
could not open her mouth. At the
end Of eight days she died. Third,
dog was nailed up in q tobacco hogs
lead. At the end of four days he
was taken out much reduced. Fourth,
another dog was enclosed in a tobac-
CO barrel, and rolled down q steep
hill. Within two years that dog

such experiments. We all know
that a single drop of the oil OF tobac-

will kill q man in q minute. OF
four men lately killed on the Erie
railway, three we're smokers, and the
father Of the other an inveterate
ehewer Of tobacco. On the bodies of
the two men washed ashore, after the
late storm on Lake Michigan, papers
ot tobacco were found. In nv own

nat he must have her sure now.

The present season Is one OF enforc-
ed comparative idleness. Holiday
keeping will help to while away por-
ton of the farmers time, after which,
although the hands may be IDLE, there
is much head 10 do. The new
year is the time for laying plans for
the future, and no employment needs
more careful thought than this mat
ter of laying plans, The better the
plan the more profitable will be the
work. No work needs more planning
than farming 1t Is not business to
be done on the spur Of the moment
and at the commencement of the year
the whole future labor of the season
should be laid out distinctly and
IhoughtfuIly. Then, when the emer-
yency comes, one is prepared to meet
t. This is the great secret of success
n all business, and is that which often
enables the less able and confident
nan to come out ahead of his more
,anguine and more capable neighbor. |
Now is a good time for commencing |
/ farm record, q book in which the
arm should be mapped out, the plan
If work for the season written down,
he needed supplies of seed, ETC.,
ioted, and in which, at the close Of
zach day, there should be recorded
.he condition of the weather and the
various occurrences worthy of being
Especially should be
set down such things as the farm oper-
atoms, births, ETC., of animals, pay
nents and receipts of money, engage
nents or contracts, and all under the
proper dates. Such q book is an in
,erresting study in after times, and is
useful as guide to future work and
calculations, and has often saved mon-
~ by reason of It's being able to fur
lish either direct proof or corrobora
i've testimony OF payments or con-
.racts.

PECK'S EXPERIENCE WITH A COAL,
STOVE.

We never had q coal stove around
the house until last Saturday. Have
always burned pine slabs aud pieces
OF our neighbor's fence. They burn
well, too, but the fence got all
burned up, and the neighbor said he
wouldn't ruild new one, so he went
down to Jones' and got a coal stove.
1t is called the "RadIant Home,' and
any man that says we didn't have a
radiant home az our house for about
four hours last Saturday night is q
villain. You SEE We didn't know
anything about coal stoves. We
filed the Radiant Home about half
tull of pine fence, and when the stuff
got 20 going we filled the artesian
we'll on top with coal. IL simmered
and sputtered about five or ten min
utes and all went out, and We put on
an Overcoat and pair of mittens and
event out, too" to supper. We re-
marked, In the course of the frugal
meal, that Jones was a ''fro&d" for
recommending such q confounded re-
frigeratOr to man 10 get warm by
After supper we took piece of ice
and rubbed our hands warm, and
went in where that stove was, resolved
to make her draw and burn if it took
all the pine fence in the First Ward.
Our better half threw a quilt over
her and shiveringly remarked that
she never knew what real solid COM
fort was until. she gOs 4 coal stove.
Stung by the sarcasm in her remark,
we turned every dingus in the stove
that was movable or looked Ike il
had anything 10 do with q dra!t, and
pretty soon the Rsdient Home began
to heave up heat. 1t was not long
before she suffered like the new
Silsby steamer. Talk about your
heati In ten minutes that room was
as much worse than a Turkish bath
as hades is hotter than Liverman's
ice-house- The perspiration fairly
fried out of a tin water-cOoler in the
next room- We opened the doors,
and the snow began to melt as far up
Vino stree: as Hsnseonb's house, and
people all round the neighbo=hood
pat on linen clothes. And we couldn't
stop, the confounded thing. We
forgot that Jones told US about the
dampers, and she just kept 8 billing
The only thing we could do wss TO
90 to bed and leave the thing TO burn
up the house if it wanted 20. We
stood off with pole, and turned the
damper every way, and every turn,
she just sent out heat enough to roast
an OK. We went to Oed supposing
that the coal would eventually burn
out, but about II o'clock the whole
family had TO ge. up and sit on the
fence. Finally a man came along
who had been brougl.' up among coal
stoves, and he put = wet blanket over
him and crept up to the stove and
turned the proper dingus, and she
cooled eff, and since thst time has
been Just as comfortable as possible
II you buy q coal stove, you want to
learn how to use il, or you may get
roasted.-La Crosse Democrat.

Economy and ParsimOny.

Economy avoids all waste and ex-
travagance and applies its money to
the best advantage. But when We
economize so closely that we become
psrsimonious, we become the subjects
of vice. What is there that is more
delightful than to see economy set
forth in every days labor; to see the
man or woman cut their garments
according TO their cloth. We do not
like to see people SO rigid In their
habits as TO shut themselves from
society, or to hoard away their gold
and go shivering with cold. This is
not economy, but insanity and mad
ness.
We see many farmers going to
ruin by failing TO have a proper code
of rules by which 10 manage their
affairs. | well remember a man who
was at the head of q large farm and
had at his disposal some near dozen
farm-hands. l have seen eight Of the
twelve all working together on one
cock of hay. Was that man success
full? We will see in q moment. The
winter first knew him he had in his
care two hundred and forty three
head of cattle, some where in the
neighborhood of two hundred head
of hogs, five good farm teams, plows,
wagons, and fences in good repair
This was three years ago. To-day
She farm supports two COWS, fifty
head of shoats and one work team
The fencing is torn down and re-
moved. Things look desolate gener
aIIy. All fer the want of economy
When a man has the full proceeds o
a good producing farm, well fenced
and stocked, we claim there is screV
loose somewhere, if the farm will no
support itself, in fact, improve largel
each year.
When we see q man that Is no
afraid of the sunshine, but is read
to look after his own interest, we sc
a man thst is generally successful
life. There are but few who are re-
olute and determined that ever ia
in business. The wealthy men OF ih
day are men of nerve, they who haV
borne the burden and the heat OF I'll
day. Therefore, when We are layIn
out hard LABOR, with it lay out a
equal portion of economy.
