The InyaIid-A Pen Picture.

See her pallid countenance, but short time
ago the picture of ruddy health, the envy of
the school and theprideof the household. She
was always welcomed by her schoolmates, for
her 1.-the form and pleasing disposition carried
cheerfnlness into their ranks. Dlligent, pune
tual and exemplary, obedient and graceful at
home, she won the hearts of all. But, alas,
we are sorrowed. Those rosy checks and iud-
dy lips are blanchod by consumption. The
voice, once 30 enchanting in laugh and song,
is feeble, husliy and supplnnted by hollow
cough Let us approach her couch gently
and take her hand. Do not shudder because
Of the feeblo and passionless grasp. The
hand once 70 hearty and plump is emaciated
and shows bony outlines, while the cords and
tortuous veins are plainly mapped upon the
surface. Tho pulse that bounded with reple-
ton, carrying vigor to tho whole system, and
mpartiug life, beauty, viyacity, health and
strength, is delicate TO the touch. The feeble
heart cannot propel the thin, scanty blood with
force. Must we lose her while yet in her
teens? Companions and friends gather
around with words OF cheer and consolation
and depart with moistened eyes and silent
steps. Must we lose her? Mo- there is re-
lief! We can stay this destroyer OF our hap
piness and not suffer the loss of 30 bright n
gem. Something more is required now than
dietary and hygieDic observance, for nature

High Feeding and Good Butter.

At recent exhibition of the Chester
county agricultural society, Pennsylva-
MIA, Isaac Acker received the first prize
ON butter, who being called on for his
mode of management, remarked as fol-
lows He feeds ten quarts of corn
meal and bran TO each COW per day, with
hay; does not think that corn fodder
makes good butter. The temperature
of the cream at churning was fifty-seven
degrees and was churned from twelve to
twenty minutes; use six ounces of salt
and three ounces Of white sngar totwen.
ty pounds of butter; use an Embree
butter worker, with sponge and cloth,
and did not wash the butter with water.
Mr.. Acker believes that the essentials
to make the dairy business pay are
good cows, we'll fed and we'll taken care
of, good and convenient dairy houses
and appliances, and then produce q
good article and sell it at high price.
One year ago his COWS averaged $50
pounds each.

Curing Glover Hay.

1t is widespread error that H. is
difficult to cure clover hay. Like anv.
thing else that is carelessly and unskiil.
fully done, it will be badly done but
with ordinary attention clover can be
cured as easily as any other hay. II
should be cut when heads CT greater
part OF the field or patchare of a brown
color. If the cutting is DELAYED until
the entire crop is brown, the parts that
ripened first will be too ripe.
Clover should never be "spread ont
TO cure. 1t should be left in the swath.
The less any hay is exposed to the sun
while curing the better it will be. The
sun extracts and dries up the Juices and
succulence of the stalks which consti-
tIte the value of hay.
When cut the clover should lie in the
swath until more than half the upper
part is sufficiently cured, which will be
the case in favorable weather in eight
or nine hours. When the upper part is
thus cured the swath should be turned
with hay.forks bottom up, and allowed
to remain for five or six hours. when
that side will also be cured. Then the
swaths should be thrown together into
windrows-three swaths to q windrow-
and this being done, the operation of
hanling home the hay should be COM
menced at once. In the best clover re.
gions of our country, if the weather is
fine, clover is generally hauled home
the evening of the day it is cut, and
never allowed to remain out beyond the
following day. Cured thus, every part
of the clover, leaf, bloom and stalk, is
dried equally, the evaporation of mois.
ture has taken place gradually and reg
ularly, and all the nutritive juices of
the hay have been preserved, whereas if
the hay is exposed too long to the action
of the sun, the leaves and blooms are
dried to chip and nothing is left but
hard fibrous stalks.-(or. Soutbern

Fremont's Fallen Fortunes.

The Chicago Inter Ocean says: emo.
g. Fremont is in San Francisco. A few
years ago his presence there would have
been the signal for series of receptions
and ovations, but now he receives only
passing notice. The notoriety he had
achieved and the position he had created
for himself have been swept away, and
to-day the explorer of the Rocky noun
tains walks the streets of California's
chief city comparatively unknown.
When Gen. Fremont was in France he
was arrested, tried and found guilty of
raising money on the Memphis and Ell
Paso railway bonds by false representa-
tions, and sentenced to Imprisonment
for term of years. He made good his
escape from the jurisdiction of the
French courts and came to the United
States. His brother-in.law, Baron Boz
leau, who was tried on the same charge,
was not as fortunate, and he is now
serving his term of imprisonment.
Baron Boileau's wife, daughter of
Thos. II. Benton, lately died abroad
under very painful circumstances. Her
sister, Mrs. Fremont, is q woman of
rare attainments and great ambition.
Her hopes have withered, and she now
beholds her husband, who once almost
grasped the highest prize in his coun-
try's gift, declared felon by friendly
republic"

Lady Loudon's Undying Hate,

In the will of the Countess OF Lou
don, who died in England recently, was
found clause directing Wat her right
hand be cut off and buried in the park
at Castle bennington, at the bend OF
the hill to the Trent, with small cross
over it, bearing the motto, 81 hyde my
tyne" The explanation of this singu-
lar request shows that the countess,
who had been q lifelong enemy OF
Queen Victoria, desired to carry her
implacable hatred OF Victoria beyond
the grave. The place OF burial men
toned overlo0ls one of the queens
country seats. The skeleton hand with
its threatening epitaph was meant to
point its slow unwavering finger at the
queen, reminding her of the injustice
done long years ago TO younger sister
of the countess. In the early queen.
hood OF Victoria the sister mentioned
was a maid of honor. Gay and thought
less, the young girl had a freedom OF
manner which gave the gossips of the
day an opportunity, all too well abused,
of blackening her fame, which had been
furnished by no criminal act OF hers. The
queen hardened to the SANDER, and ban
ished the beautiful but indiscreet girl
from her household. The falsity OF the
scandal was shown, but not until the
poor, dishonored maid of honor had
died of broken heart. The Countess
of Loudon blamed the queen for her
sisters untimcly fate, and determined
to revenge that sisters wrongs. Never
after did she appear at court, and upon
every royal fete day kept close immured.
Her post-mortem pursuit Of the queen
is CHASTITY but impotent.

The Busy Bee.

1t is estimated that there are two
million bee-hives in the United States.
Every hive yields, on au average, lit
tie over twenty-five pounds of honey.
The average price at which honey is
sold is twenty five cents a pound so
that after paying their own board the
bees present us with revenue of over
eight million eight hundred thousand
dollars. To reckon it another way, they
make clear gift of over pound Of
pure honey to every man, woman and
child in the vast domain of the United
States. Over twenty three and one
third million pounds of wax are made
and given to us by these Industrious
workers. The keeping of bees is enc of
the most profitable investments that our
people can make of their money. The
profits arising from the sale of surplus
honey average from fifty to two hun
dred per cent. on the capital invested.

THE New PANACEA.-Modern science
having demonstrated that alcohol is
"neither food nor physic," but, on the
contrary, a species of poison, the intro
duction of potent tonic which is en-
tirely free from it, is certainly subject
for congratulation. DIR. Walkers Vine-
gar Bitters is q medicine which may be
fairly characterized as an unobiection.
able specific for many distressing and
dangerous diseases.
Temperance organizations, heretofore
in favor of permitting the sale of alco-
hol for medical purposes, are of opinion
that Vinegar Bitters possesses all the
efficacy as an invigorapt that has ever
been even claimed for spirituous stimu-
lants, and on this account, as well as
because of the singular success which
has attended its use in dyspepsia, liver
complaint, disorders of the bowels, ner-
vous disease, general debility, and all
maladies growing out of intemperance,
they warmly recommend it as a restora-
tive and Alternative of surprising excel

Southern Iron.

The highest price of iron at the mines,
to be per etrated by the Memphis, Boil.
var and Knoxville road, is twenty-five
dollars per ton. At some points its cost
is twelve dollars. Northern iron men
cannot sell for less than thirty dollars
without bankruptcy. A furnace produc-
ing only twelve tons per day, and making
iron at cost of twenty-five dollars per
ton, and selling at thirty dollars, clears
sixty dollars per diem. There is idle
capital enough in Memphis banks to
start twenty such furnaces. Are there
such iron-felds and such opportunities
for speculation, or is this story about
the iron.felds of Dixon and Humphreys

the New Memphis gas works doesn't
think so. He has put his9mcney in Dix
