Educated Oysters.

BEFORE the railroad DAYS our oyster
growers used early in the fall to canvass
the villages on the Hudson River for
orders, to be filled Just before the river
should be closed with ice. The meaning
of this is that these men committed
themselves to supply oysters in the shell,
with the guarantee that the bivalves thus
supplied should not die before their time
came. The oysters were actually kept
alive during the greater part of the long
winter. The fat bivalves were handled
with some care, and were spread on the
cellar floor, the round or lower side
down so as not TO allow the liquor to
escape. That such life required a
great change of capacity or habit in the
bivalve is evident; and it needed train
ing, yes, an education, ere the oyster at
tanned such ability And this was the
way it was done: Beginning early in the
fall the cultivator took up the fat
bivalves from their bed where he had
planted them and laid them little high
er up on the shore, so that for short
time each day they were exposed out of
the water. After few days of this ex-
posure by the retreating tide they were
moved little higher still on the shore
line, which gave them a little longer eX-
posure to the air at each low tide. And
this process was continued, each move
resulting in longer exposure. And with
what results? Two very curious ones
inurement to exposure, and the incula-
ton of a provident habit of making
preparation for the same. What! provi.
dence in an oyster? Yes, when he's ed
ucated. When accustomed to this treat
ment, ere the tide retires the oyster
takes good full drink and retains the
same until the tide returns. Once,
while waiting for the stage at country
hosiery, we overheard the following be.
tween two rustic practitioners at the bar
Come, Swill, let's take drink
"Well, / don't know. Amt dry myself
Hows'ever, guess I will take drink for
fear l might get dry" With better
| philosophy on their side, these educated
| oysters twice in every twenty-four hours
took their precautionary drink. The
| French method of oyster-training is much
more labOrious. The adult bivalves are
carefully spread out in the water and
periodical lessons are given to each one
| individually. Each oyster on this occa.
sion receives tap, not with ferule, but
with small iron instrument. This
causes the bivalve to close tightly
Finally the last day comes with its last
premOnitory tap. Its education thus
| finished it takes passage with lis fellow,
graduates for Paris. AS result of its
education it knows how to keep its
mouth shut when it enters society,"

Difference Between Bugs and Beetles.

A GREAT many intelligent people do
not understand the peculiar difference
between the term "bug" and beetle"
The popular impression is that q bug is
beetle, and Uice versa. Thomas Meehan
writes, concerning this subject, that the
Colorado potato beetle does not belong
to the "bug," but to the "beetle" family.
There are many people who will say that
1t makes no difference whether we call
this insect bug or a beetle, so long as
people know what we mean. In one
sense this is right; yet it is the universal
experience that inaccuracy is bound in
time to make trouble. In fact, it is
chiefly because of the general slipshod
way of talking of things that writers and
speakers find so much difficulty in beihE
properly understood. The use of wrong
expressions because they are in the par
ticular case as good as the right one" "
becomes habit, and they are used when
they are not as good, and it is then that
the trouble comes in. In the case of
"bug" and beetle' there is little excuse
| for the use of the wrong term, as it
cannot be pleaded that "beetle" is a
"iaw-brcaking" name. Beetle is quite
as easy as the other. All those insects
which have hard outer-wing cases arc
| known to scientific men as cOleOptcrd, and
are popularity known as beetles" The
Colorado potato insect belongs to this
class, and is beetle, not II bug. The
immature insect is the larva, and is as
much if not more destructive than the
parent beetle. A bedbug is not beetle

victims of circumstances, when we meet
with discouragcments-if we yield to
them become dlspirited and simply give
up our energies to bodily labor-we be-
come merely drudges, and little better
than beasts of burden. 1t Is easier to
break ones way out of trouble than to
yield to it; easier to climb the fence
than, rushing against the barriers, try to
break il down. We must, therefore,
yield in some measure to circumstances,
bearing and forbearing, and taking such
pleasure as we may, while practicing the
divine precept to do as we should be
done by.
The farmer, although he may attire
himself in rough and, perhaps, to ultra
fashionable eyes, uncouth garments, is
nevertheless the peer of any in the land,
and is so considered and estimated by all
who, like him, are engaged in multiply
ing the wealth of nation. 1t is not the
popiniay men nor the butterfly women
who ever are heard of outside their own
immediate circle of puppets and painted
moths. 1t is not from the ranks of " So
Ciety" that, in the hour of nations
peril, the General the President, the
liking of men" arises. From the farm
and the workshops come forth that
vigor of brains and body before which
the herd of emasculated exquisites is
driven as the chaf is before the wind

Bravery Rewarded.

A BRUSSELS correspondent of the Lon
don Times describes as follows the dis
tribution of State rewards of "acts of
courage, devotion and humanitv:" "The
first to be honored was Il little fellow
twelve years of age, whose achievement
brought tears into the eyes of the Queen
and Princess. 1t seemed, from the ac-
count read to the audience, that three
children;of whom the boy was the eldest,
were playing in the room by themselves
when the little sister pulled over a paraffine
lamp and set herself ON fire. The brave
little fellow, fearless of burns, did the
best he could to eXtinguish the flames,
and was so horribly burnt himself that
he was three months i'll and will bear the
marks of his achievement to the grave.
The sister died; but the boys act was
recognized by his being awarded the
medal of the first class-a large gold
medal surmounted with the royal crown,
The second was a boy who rescued
child from the broken ice in canal last
winter, and the gold medal was also given
to this little hero. The third was nun,
who had rescued at the risk of her life,
an infant from II burning house. After
the boys and the nun came two members
of the Chamber of Representatives.
d'Andrimont, the Deputy of Liege. and
the Comte de Borchgrave d'Altena
Deputy of TOngres and Burgomaster
of Marlinne. NJ. dAndrimont saved
the lives of two bathers on two different
occasions. The Comte exposed his life
on two occasions in preventing public
calamities at two fires. The two Depu-
ties were rewarded, amid the cheers of
the assemblage, by the Civic Cross of the
second class. The two members of the
Belgian Parliament were followed by
two wOrkmcn, one of whom, slater,
Wagemans, had rushed into a house to
rescue a sick woman and was assisted by
printer named Dacos. Both men were
much burnt, and the slater had the first
class medal awarded, the other the sec
Ond Then came Col. Poitcrs, of the
Garde Civiquc of Molcmbcck st. Jean,
who plunged into the water in his
clothes TO save II man who had fallen
into a canal The Colonel was awarded
the iirst-cass medal. Among the other
heroes in civil life decorated for saving
life were student aged sixteen, who
received the first class medal for saving
man from drowning; the Abbot Tho
man, of Ostend, who received the same
for like act of devotion; a religieuSe
named Justine MOrelle, for saving a
child carried away. by current; and
officers and pilots of Antwerp were re.
wardcd, their acts of devotion being in
connection with the fire of the parafline-
loaded American ship Westmoreland.
On one of the brave fellows being called
it was announced that he had met his
death by drowning in the River Scheldt.
lhGre were many other presentations of
like character"

STEALING HEAVENS LIVERY. - The
great AlcohOlless Remedy, VINEGAR BIT
TIERS, is everywhere driving pestiferous
rum potions out of the market. That
famous combination of the finest medic
inal herbs on the continent of America
is accomplishing such cures of diseases
which affect the stomach, the liver, the
bowels, the kidneys and the nervous sys-
tenn that the grateful masses have adopt
ed it as their StaHddrd Specific. The
various rum btters have gone down be-
fore this pure vegetable antidote like
tenpins before a well-aimed ball The
people have at length discovered that all
the spirituOus eXcitants are worse than
shams-that both morally and medici-
nally they are inimical to the ll-being
and safety of the community. 10 ,00H't do

The Jewish Passover.

THE observance of this festival is pre-.
scribed in Exodus xiii. (Sce also Levitt
Gus xiii, and Deuteronomy XVII 1t oc
ours in the Jewish month of Abb
(Nisan), usually about the latter part of
March or the beginning of April in the
calendar year, and lasts strictly seven
days, although the more orthodox OBJ
serve eight, owing to an uncertainty
which once arose about the almanac and
from which in all these many centuries
they have not recovered. The first day
and the last are sacred, and are marked
by a total suspension of work. There
are services in the synagogues of an
usual length and solemnity, at which
persons attend who do not observe a
Sabbath in the whole year. They close
their shops everywhere; dwellers in the
country where there are no Jewish COM
munities repair to the city and put up
with friends, or at Jewish inns, until the
week is over, travellers return to their
homes, and in fine every stray orthodox
lamb puts in an appearance. An unusual
amount of friendliness and bcnevolence
is prevalent and the enjoyment is gen.
eral.
But, after all, these are not the distin-
gushing features of the Passover. All
the festivals are marked more or less in
this way Its real characteristic is its
unleavened food, and the operation
which this peculiar diet has upon Jewish
tables. All leavened food and fermcntcd
drink are prohibited, and everything
containing any mixture of either, such
matter being known by its Hebrew name,
chOn,etz. With respect to this the festival
is observed with extraordinary strict
ness. BY noon the day before the Pass
over sets in every house is completely
cleaned. All the table and kitchen utcn-
sils, dishes of every description, knives
forks, tablc-covers, wine glasses-cvery
thing, in fine, that has even The remOtest
connection with the preparation or con-
sumption of food or drink, besides, of
course, all unCOnsumcd groccrics-arc re-
moved to the attic or some other distant
and unOCCupied quarter of the house.
In place of all this houseware an equally
complete array, which has never been
used except for the unleavened food of
this festival, is brought down from the
attic and arrayed for weeks brief
service. Each little Israelitish lamb has
probably its own private Passover mug,
the gift perhaps of some friend or rela-
tive; and how the youngsters rejoice over
their familiar favOrites as they are taken
from their years confinement While
these dishes are used the greatest care is
taken to prevent their contact with
ch0metz. Should such collision accidental
ly happen, the contaminated utensil in
thoroughly orthodox households is sun
dered from the rest of the Passover
ware, and thereafter is doomed to perpet-
ual association with the plebeian crockery
up-stairs-Gdtdryt for NOUemJer.

Nursing the Sick.

LET him take a teaspOonful once in
three hours" said the doctor as he was
about to leave the room.
" If he is asleep" asked the nurse,
"when the time comes around, shall
wake him up for his mcdicineY"
" No, no, never. Sleep is, in almost
every sickness, better than any medicine
we can give"
This was the opinion of learned and
prosperous physician of the old school,
and as the opinion is doubtless sound
and good ii shall be the basis of brief
paper on nursing the sick. The only
point to which / would draw attention Is
one almost universally disregarded and
never esteemed vitality important, as it
really is. 1t is the absolute importance
of quiet to insure the proper effect of
medicines aud the steady Improvement
of the patient.

what is called fit of sickness can under

The Farm Preferable to City Life.

THERE is no doubt that farmers, as u
class, perform more labor and work
more hours for given amount of money
than any other persons who, furnishing
their own capital, supplement it with
their labor. The farm labOrcr must,
also, necessarily work more hours than
those in cities who labor by the day /;
but there is no doubt that the farm hand,
working and receiving his board besides
his wages, If he choose, may lay up more
money than the day-laborcrs in our cit
les; and simply for the reason that, if he
choose to be economical, his individual
expenses are but light. If determined
to curtail every unnecessary expense, u
few years will suffice to give him money
enough to start for himself on the from
tier. 1t is true the labor of making a
new farm is hard, continuous and exact
ing; so, however, must it be with any
young man in any position who has
nothing but his hands to work with,
whatever the industry followed. Con
sidering the social position of those la
boring on farms, their lot is not, as a
rule, worse than that of those laboTing in
cities.
If one is contented with his condition
in life, and while earnestly and honestly
striving to better his position does not
envy those whom circumstances, gen
orally the result OF individual effort,
have placed in position better than his
own-if he weigh carefully the disadvan-
tages as well as the advantages of city
life-if his tastes remain true and sim
pie, there is no doubt that the country,
with its pure air innocent pleasures,
simple diet, untainted water and delight
full scenery, is altogether best for the av-
erage man or woman.
No person may enjoy himself more
thoroughly, If so inclined, than the
farmer But he wants means for the ed
ucation of children, and also congenlal
society outside the family Even in a
new country this is not impossible, If in
diyiduals locate, as they should, in com
munities. In the daily round of labor it
should be remembered that our duties are
not simply TO ourselves and families We
cannot get along without the assistance
of others. Therefore we must be ready
to render assistance, if possible, when
asked. If we consider ourselves the
