For the benefit of those whose fruit
trees are infested by the tent caterpillar,
We give an extract from letter to the
st. Johnsbury Farmer, in which the
writer says that his plan is to tie small
swab on a stick, which he keeps wet by
dipping in kerosene oil, and drip very
little on top of the nest, which will
strike through and work complete ruin
of the homestead, provided you look
along the limb and find and peel off the
little nest of eggs where the worms keep
Matching out and crawling down to the
web nest. They are generally stuck to
q twig in cluster, and glisten in the
sun, so may be readily seen. If this is
done in the winter or early in the spring,
before the eggs are Matched, you will
have no further trouble with killing the
worms, as by so doing the larvae is de,
stroyed. Another correspondent say
that after having tried half dozen diff
ferent remedies, he at last took soft soal
and hot water in equal quantities, mad,
q swinging swab on the end of pole
dipped it in the soap, and drew the swal
; through the crotch where their nest
were, and generally one brush close,
business and killed the occupants.

PRoFANITY.-Profane is a brutal
vice. He who INDUCES in it is no gen.
tleman, care not what his standing
may be in society, l care not what
clothes he wears, or what education he
boasts. In spite of ali his refinement,
the light and habitual taking God S
name in vain betrays q coarse nature,
and brutal will. Profaneness is an
unmanly and silly vice. 1t certainly is
not grace in conversation, and it adds
no strength to it. There is no beauty
in the narrative that is sprinkled with
oaths. The profanity that is used to
support an opinion does not make it any
more correct. The use of this shows a
limited range of ideas, and feeling of
being on the wrong side. Again pro.
faneness is mean vice; it shows the
greatest ingratitude according to general
estimation. He who repays kindnes:
with insult; he who abuses friend and
an Almighty benefactor is deemed {
pitiful and wretched person.

SPEAKING FOR JESUS.

AT one of our recent prayer-mcetings
young man related the following incl
dent: A schoolmate of his was lying on
his death-bed He had for some time
been an earnest christian, always ready
to speak with his schoolmates on the
subject of religion. and had been the in
strument of leading many to Christ.
Now his work was nearly done-his OPP
portunities, improved and unimproved,
had nearly all past. While he laid there,
waiting his summons home, his father
said
MY son, you have always been kind
and obedient to me, and | do not doubt
you love me. 1 have no fault to find
with you, but in one particular. You
have been an earnest christian, have often
conversed with those of your own age
on the subject of religion, and urged
them to become christians, but TO me
you have never extended your invitation.
Ofttimes | have listened when you have
been conversing with others, and wished
you would speak with me on this impor-
tant subject. but you never have.
The agonies of that moment cannot
be described, but the scene teaches q
useful lesson.
We are apt to neglect religious con-
versation with our home friends. 1t is
so much easier to converse with others
than with an unconverted father or
mother, sister or brother We love our
home friends the best, and why is it that
we neglect almost daily opportunities of
trying to save their souls Is it because
We think they see all our imperfections
If so. let us point them to the Saviour
for an example. If our lives are not
such as become the children of God, let
us try and make them so, not only that
we may enter into that promised rest,
but that we may not be in the way Of
others seeking the same.

knew n man. and he lived in Jones
which Jones is a county of red hills and stones
And he lived pretty much by getting loans,
And his mules were nothing but skin and bones,
And his hogs were as fat as his corn-pones
And he had bout thousand acres Of land.
This uan--and his name was also Jones
He swore he'd leave those old red hills and stones,
For he couldn't make nothin but yellowish cotton,
And little Of that for his fences were rotten,
And what little corn he had, that boughten.
And he couldn't get living of the land.
And the longer he swore the madden he got,
And he rose and walked TO the stable lot,
And he shouted TO Tom TO come there and hitch.
For to enigrate somewhere where the land rich,
And to quit raising cock-burrs thistles and SIGH.
And wasting their time on barren land.
So him and Tom they hitched up their mules,
Protesting that folks were mighty big fools
That nd stay in Georgia their lifetime out
just scratching and living. when all OF them mought
Get places in Texas, where Gotten would sprout
BY the time you could plant II in the land.
And he drove by house where man named Brown
Was living not far from the edge of town;
And he bantered Brown for TO buy his place,
And said that seeing as money was scarce,
And seeing as sherifs were hard to face,
Two dollars an acre would get the land.
They closed at a dollar and fifty cents,
And Jones he bought him a wagon and tents,
And loaded his corn. and women and trucks,
And moved 10 Texas which it took
His entire pile with the best Of luck,
To get there and get him little land.
And Brown moved out on the old Jones farm,
And he rolled up his breaches and barred his arm,
And he picked all the rock from off n the ground,
And he rooted it up and plowed it down,
And sowed his corn and wheat IN the land.
Five years went by, and Brown, one day,
WHO had got so fat that he wouldn't weigh
Was sitting down sorter laZily
To the grandest dinner you ever did see,
When one OF the children jumped on his knee.
And says, Thar's Jones' which you bought his land.
And there was Jones, standing out at the fence,
And he hadn't no wagon nor mules, nor tents,
For he had left Texas afoot, and come
To Georgia TO see If he could get some
Employment, and was looking as
Humble as if he never owned any land.
So Brown asked HIM in, and he sot
Him down 10 his vietuals smoking hot,
And when he couldn't eat any more,
Brown looked at him sharp and rose and swore
That, Whether mans land was rich or poor,
There more in the man than there was in tn

WORTH THE PAINs.-It is ignoble to
feel that the fuller life which a sad ex-
perience has brought us is worth our
own personal share of pain; surely it is
not possible to feel otherwise, any
more than it would be possible for
man with a cataract to regret the
painful process by which his dim, blur.
red sight of men as trees walking, had
been exchanged for clear outline and
effulgent day. The growth of higher
feeling within us is like the growth o
faculty, bringing with it a sense of added
strength; we can no more wish to return
to narrow sympathy than a painter O
a musician can return to his cruder man
ner, or a philosopher to his less complet
formula--George Eliot.

HERETICAL.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was ap-
plauded during sermon by the clapping
of hands and stamping of feet, and
stopping short the eloquent wag said i:
"Some people will be sadly troubled
at that; how would they have got along
with the teachings of Christ, which were
often interrupted and broken by question
and answer? For myself l do not know
why what is an appropriate responce or
demonstration of approval in one place
and on one day, is not to be allowed in
the assembly of freedom in Christ Jesus.
We are brought into liberty, not bond
age. like it, but don't let my liking
betray you into any impropriety.'
And here is the passage which was
applauded:
ITO make the way of salvation hard
and gloomy is contrary to the spirit of
Gods Word. No just man teaches the
hard tenent of predestined. inevitable,
eternal damnation, cruel as lions paw
holding q Mouse, from which there is no
escape, and calls that good news. That's
a grim joke. Fore-ordained to eternal
damnation, and held still responsible as
for actual transgression! To say that
such a doctrine Of relentless fate is
taught by Gods Word Egypt with
her grim deities, and Greece and Rome,
with ayenging furies, are more humane
theologies than that. i have good news.
What is it /. Am | released? Have | a
new trial? No; you are to be cut into
inch pieces, and your children are to
stand by to rejoice over it. So we were
to be angels in heaven-.were to be de.
,, lighted spectators of the torments of the
damned in hell. Monstrous doctrine
The Devil could have preached that
Any presentation of christianity tina
does not show it as balmy to the soul a.

shuts out hope from the soul is blasphe

To OWNERS OF HoRsEs.-How often
do we hear of an owner of pet horse,
say ne is the best horse in the world,
but he is little afraid of the cars or
steam engine; and how many sad acct
dents and loss of lives could be avoided
if owners of horses would make them
used to the engine. But this cannot be
done at railroad crossing when horse
is hitched to wagon, strapped down
and curbed as he is. How then? Let
your horse out loose into pasture close
to railroad where the steam cars pas:
every hour or two. and in less than :
week the horse viii cane no more about
the cars or the engine than the engine
does about the horse.

A CHAT ABOUT HAY.

A contributor to the Hartford, Conn.,,
Courant says:
In expanding our little bay of hay,
twelve foot cube, or Whereabouts, find
each horse load reminds me by its pecul-
lar heritage of the part of the meadow
it came from, and the circumstances of
its gathering in the regular inverted Sc
quence of the hay harvest. The loads
that were perfectly cured give an account
of themselves in more aromatic sweet
ness. Those that were stored with a
risky excess of moisture tell the tales in
volumes of fine, musty dust, especially
in the middle of the NOW. The heat
there was undoubtedly near the scalding
point, the hay shows a dull. brownish
green tint, and has become very dry and
brittle. The sugary gums and dried
juices belonging to hay in its best con-
dition, and tending to preserve the
weight and strength of its fiber, seems
to have been quite consumed in the in
terror parts of some of the loads. So
that the young ones in one stormy day,
with a jumping frolic, may reduce a
whole foddering to the hghtest chaff.
The outside is in better condition, show
ing that, if | had taken the precaution
to provide one or several small air holes
from the bottom upward, as by pulling
up short pieces of joist while the hay
was being filled in, this waste of the
richer and more appetizing portions Of
the fodder might have been prevented.
A partial remedy in the use of sucf
hay is to sprinkle each foddering witt
water several hours before it is wanted
A pail of water, say, for ten or twelve
animals. If the hay is fine, whatever
proyender is fed may be mingled will
the hay, layer by layer, adding NOR,
water from the nose of the water pot
This without slop upon clean BAR
floor, or making the mixture heavie
than wilted grass. The water alone vii
settle the dust, and develop anew what
ever of fragrance the hay may be capa
bic of yielding. The improvement is a
obvious as that produced in stale brea
by steaming, or heating in an oven wit
moist cloth. 1t is similar damper
ing by the weather that makes roug
and musty fodder, thrown from the stacl
more acceptable to cattle sometimes tina
the best dry hay would be.

oloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with q pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
It's occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. IF wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
