TFibRlatiOms of two Rural
Low erSs


The other night at Truckee, Cal, two
young men, visiting the same young
lady, tried to "freeZe each other out, .
OF in other words, to see which would
stay the longest. It appears that this is
q common amusement at Truckee, and
though pleasant to the young men, is
somewhat expensive and annoying to
the old folks. The Republican tells the
story as follows: .. ~.
The heads of the family left the
young people alone at the proper hour
and retired, apparently for the purpose
OF rest and slumber. About midnight
the young lady expressed a desire to
step out on the porch to see the moon
and get the fresh air, and of course
both of the "freezers" followed. The
door was closed after them. While
moon and star gazing, the man of the
fOdse steps unObserVed into the parlor
and distributes liberal supply of shoe
makers wax ON two of the seats of the
cane bottOmed chairs-those that the
men had vacated. This wax was of the
right consistency to serve the purpose
i'll this case. The young lady on the
porch, who was i'll the secret, soon found
an excuse for returning with her ad-
m1rers. The young men sank down
again into the reserved seats,p and
each redoubled his efforts to please the
damsel, annoy his fellow, and keep
aw.ake. About an hour passed in this
way, by which time the wax aided by
the warmth pressed down upon it, had
become thoroughly amalgamated with
the shoddy of the pants-in fact, the
cane bottoms of the chairs, the wax
and the DantalOOns became sort of
inseperabe trinity. The time for the
crisis was close at hand. 1t came.
Each one of the bachelors found him-
self glued to his seat, and no amount
of pulling and tugging effected a re-
lease. 1t they arose the chairs followed.
At first they tried to look upon the mat
ter as a joke, and after full half hours
struggle to free themselves from their
embarrassing predicaments they began
to think they had got into a serious
scrape. The lady suggested that they
build up rouslng fire in the stove, and
then each man backing up as near the
heat as possible, "melt the darned
stuff Off" as she said. This method
was tried, but didn't work, as, with the
chairs fastened to them, they couldn't
get near enough the fire. After they
had sweat in the heated room for about
an hour to no purpose, the wax retain
ing its relentless grip and connection,
they saw no other way out of their
awkward dilemma except to engage in
a surgical operation. It was getting
along towards morning, and daylight
was ear at hand. Thew realized that
whatever was to be done must be done
gu 'ckly. Their jack knives were
brought into reduisition, and in d few
minutes each fellow was relieved from
his uncomfortable position. They left
the young lady and the house in hasty
and unceremonious manner, with a cane
patch ON the rear of their unmention-
ables about the size of full moon.
Freeze out games are not as popular as
they were.

To PREVENT THE RAvAGEs OF THE
Corn OR BUD WoRM.-Maj. Wall:
have concluded, for the benefit of the
overfoWed farmers to give my practical
experience of three years in raising late
corn, or to prevent the ravages. of the
corn, or bHd-worm in late corn. Tt is
simply this: Sprinkle well each stalk
with weak solution of salt and water /;
half as strong as il you were saving
pork. use the common garden water
pot. Be sure to have it sprinkled in the
bud. Try it, 1 have never failed with
but one watering.

Watering Horses After Meals.
From the New England homestead

1t is a practice with many horsemen to
give their horses no water until after
they have eaten their. allowance of feed.
Concerning this practice, a veterinarian
writes: "a full drink of water imme-
dlately after eating, should never be
allowed to horses. When wateris drank
by them, the bulk of it goes directly to
the intestines, and little of it is retained
in the stomach. In passing through the
stomach, however, the water carries con-
slCerable quantities of the contents to
where it lodges in the intestines. If the
food in horses stomachs is washed out
before it is digested, no nourishment
will be derived from the feed In Edin-
bnrgh, some old horses were fed with
split peas, and then supplied with water
Immediately before being killed. Itwas
found that the water had carried the
peas from fifty to sixty feet into the in
testlns, where no digestiOns took place
at ALL"
Mr.. Castle is quite correct in the views
set forth regarding the injurious effects
OF large quantities of water taken i'm
mediately after eating. A small guam
tity of fluid swallowed along with, or
Immediately after, dry food, beneficial
ly softens it, and assists in it's subdivi-
sion and digestion. An lnOrdinate sup
ply of water, of watery food, ON the
other hand, proves injurious. 1t dilutes
undn.ly the digestive sec etions; it me-
chanically carries onward the imper-
fectly digested food, and thus interferes
with the proper functions of the canal,
and excites indigestions and diarrhea.
These untowa.d effects are especially
apt to occur where horses freely fed and
too literally watered, are shortly put to
tolerable % r;:5 gu ek work: There is no more
lnfallible 1i method OF producing collie,
bowels. The horse is not peculiar in
this effect; dogs, and even their masters,
similarly suffer from copious draughts
of water, Immediately after eating much
solid food.

The sunshine and the gIooIn of life
are of our own making. Happiness
springs from a contented nature; sor-
row from the chatting of petulent spi-
Tit. Our enjoyment and our suffering
are chiefly from within us, not from the
world without and beyond us. A good
conscience is better than q beautiful
home, filed and ornamented with the
creation Of art, and is the only pure
and enduring fountain of happiness.
This is within the reach of all, Real
enjoyInents are not limited by the aeci-
dences of wealth or condition, but
dwell as regularly in the tlatched cot
tage, as In the imperial palaces.

There was bishop in Dublin who

to see it unvailed. All faces were turn

could be seen but vast expanse OF

ACQUIREMENTs NECESSARY To MAKE
AN EDITOR.-The Round Table says
that to make an efficient managing edi-
tor of journal it requires ra1 eom-
bination of valuable qualities. - ad-
dition TO thorough education, good
he pits, the power of stayn in work, and
social tact and resource, the proper fill
ing of such a niche makes serious and
enacting demands. It requires of man
self-control-the first essential toward
controlling others. 1t requires ripeness
of koWledge and experience, the habit
of reticence, the vlgilant self-respect
that prevents a man from putting him
sef in the power of other men, the COM
mand of q pure, strong and cOpious
style-slnce the wit to censure and the
talent to select rarely exist without these,
and such critical and discriminative
ability are precisely what our function
ary should not be without. Tt requires
that a man should be trustworthy lin
guist and bellies tettreS@ scholar; that he
should have some personal knowledge
OF the principal foreign countries, their
people, politics, and system: that he
should possess q fair acquaintance with
the laws of trade, with the principles of
engineering and navigation, and with
natural and exact science in general.
1t requires fair discriminative knowl-
edge of the drama and of art, and COM
prehensive familiarity with national
history, men, and affairs. Some among
the qualifications come, like DogberTy's
reading and writing, "by nature;" but
half an eye and half head should show
that the most indispensable of their
number must needs be the fruit of ex-
perience. Even genius alone will not
dohere. Talent is better, with the train
ing that teaches its application.
