LIFE IN AN OASIS.

La the oasis of Sinooris, in Egypt,
there are l04 towns with 10000 in
habitants. A missionary writing thence
to the GhriStiGa Register says that most
of the inhabitants are eultivators of the
SOIL though in this place are many
weavers and dyers. The town of Sinoo-
ris stands high, as if built upon huge
mound. Nearly all the towns and vii
lagos of Egypt are thus located, and
are safe from the floods that surround
them in the OVERLOOKING Of the great
river. Most of the dwellings are one
story, made of sun-dried bricks with
earth roofs supported by beams cut from
the palm tree. and covered with branches
and leaves of the same, upon which the
earth Is packed [ saw but two houses
furnished with glass windows. The
streets are narrow and filthy. The peo-
pie are exceedingly poor, and this al
though the district surpasses all other
parts of Egyptian fertility and the var
ieties of its productions and richness of
its gardens.
Oppression comes to them daily with
its stearnest demands. Taxation S suck
ing at the very vitals of all classes.
Unable to pay their taxes the people
have given their lands, so that the Vice
roy has now in possession one hundred
and sixty millions of acres out of the
two hundred millions now under cult
walton, leaving only forty millions now
in possession of the peasants. The re-
suit is q most distressing state of things
among the people. The most squalid
restitution is revealed at every turn.

MIND YOUR ENGLISH.

In common talk we use great many
grammatic vulgarisms which could as we'll
be avoided as not, and the error of which
should always be pointed out to the
young men who are forming their Ian
guage. The Methodist sensiblY saws
Children should learn to speak correctly
while they are children, for it will be
hard to correct wrong habits when they
become older. Many persons who have
a smattering of French and even of Lat
IN, too, are known to make bad blunders
in their English, because they never
learned to correct themselves when they
were young.
The other day a little girl asked,
"Will you go to.morrer 90 The answer
was, 81 dunno" How much better to
pronounce the words correctly, and say

RAISING TURKEYS.

A farmers wife gives her practice
with turkeys:-Have no more than four
hens to each gobbler, and do not starve
them during winter. Watch them close
ly about laying time, as they nearly
always hunt nest the day before they
deposit their first egg. Make a good
large nest in some building that you can
confne them in, and the next morning
after they hunt their nest, catch them
and shut them up in the place where
you made the nest, for after they have
laid one egg they will always 60 back
to that nest. If they choose a good
place of their own accord I let them
alone though l put few common hen
eggs in the nest and take out the turkey
eggs every day and keep them in cool
place, as heat Injuries them quicker than
cold, provided it does not freeze. let
each turkey set the first time she wants
to; but let no young turkeys run with
a common hen, for if they do so halt a
dozen times they are more trouble than
tfty running with turkey hen.
The advantage of letting turkeys set
on their first laying of eggs is this -
the young turkeys are Matched before
the weeds and grass get high enough to
wet and befoul them in the mornings.
watch them two or three days, that no
weak ones are lost; then they get no
more attention, only feeding when they
come to the house. On no account give
them raw food when SMALL feed mine
on corn bread; sometimes soak it in sour
milk and sometimes give them curd.
Never shut them up unless it rains hard.
To prevent cholera, | give them sulphur
twice week.

POULTRY HINTs.-To be successful in
raising chickens several things are nee
essary never set hen in a box above
the ground, but on the ground always.
If person is so situated that the eggs
can't be set on the ground, fill the nest
about three inches deep with fresh earth
then make the nest on that, and at the
end of the first week, wash them off in
milk-warm water, do the same at the
end of the second week, and if the eggs
are impregnated, every one will hatch,
If an egg gets broken and the other eggs
get smeared over with it the eggs so
smeared will not hatch unless washed
clean. Eggs require a certain amount
of moisture for them to hatch well.
When the chickens are Matched, confine
them for twenty-four hours and do not
feed them; after that feed with the yolk
Of hard boiled eggs for two or three
days, then with mush without salt for a
few days more, then feed with meal and
water. Try these hints and you'll find
this information is worth five years SUBJ
seription to this paper.

LABOR AND LUCK.

The mere fact that you have to labor
is not misfortune. The mere fact that
your labor produces slow results is not
misfortune. The thing that you de-
sire as an alienation would be the great
est curse to you. Do not be ashamed
of that place where God has shut you
up. God has put your tasks upon you
and remember that your enjoyment is
to consist in the essential manliness of
your nature. 1t is to consist in the ae-
tive use of those forces which God has
endowed you with, wherever his provi-
dence has put you. And if he has with
held from you some of those enjoyments
which he has granted to others. be as
sured, if you are faithful, that in some
way they will be made up to you. Do
not be ashamed of hardness. Stand to
it and fight out your battle. See to it
that whatever you lose-whether it be
money, or place, Or what not-you do
not lose manhood, or courage. or honesty,
or simplicity or truthfulness. Stick to
them. They are half your life.
think if you were to go from man
to man, in all ordinary channels of life,
you would find very few men if you took
them at that hour when they make their
secret complaints, who did not have the
impression that though they should be
resigned to their condition, it was a con-
dition of misfortune that they were
obliged to exert themselves. The young
man beginning in life says to himself;
81 am obliged to rise early, and sit up
late, and labor incessantly; but / hope
for better time" All, yes that bet
ter time is the FOOLS paradise OF laziness
He is obliged to work now; but he looks
forward to the time when he will not be
under the necessity of working. He
points to the favored sons as he calls
them of rich men, who were not born to
work and who are useless and worse
than useless in society, and lanlents that
instead Of having their good fortune, he
is doomed to life of severe toll. But
[ tell you, what you call good fortune
has been their ruin, and the necessity
of laboring has been your salvation. 1t
has been that which has made you what
you are still. 1t has been a token of
Gods mercy to you. And instead of
bemoaning your condition, thank God
for it.-H. TT. Beecher

THE ORCHARD.

This is the time to go over the young
orchard; the trees will need special at
tention now Young trees planted last
fall and this spring are pushing out
young growth; all the growth on the
main stem should be rubbed off, select
ing three or more shoots to form the
head. While the trees are young is the
best time to regulate their shape for the
future, always taking particular notice
through the growing season not to allow
the heads to out-grow the stems if the
heads seem to grow too fast for the stems,
pinch out the terminal bud; this will
retard the growth and assist the stems
to gain strength and vigor The soil
should be kept thoroughly clean and
mellow around the trees. Should the
season be very dry and hot, keep the
soil constantly stirred: this is better
than mulching. Save all the soap-suds
and give the trees a watering with it
once every two weeks. If this is done
the young trees will make fine healthy
growth and hasten into early bearing.
One important point must be observed
in blowing among young fruit trees, as
many fine tree is frequently killed by
the single-trees tearing through and over
the trees breaking the branches and tear
ing the bark. The pillow should not be
allowed to 60 any closer than three feet
from the trees the balance of the ground
should be cultivated with a forked spade
or a strong forked hoe. We have seen
so much of the let-alone system of or
chard culture and its evil results that
we insist and urge our friends to bet
ter mode of culture as the only way to
succeed in fruit raising.

DEAD, BUT NOT BURIED.

When a friend dies and is buried,
there's an end of him. We miss him
for space out of our daily existence !;
We mourn for him by degrees that be-
come mercifully less we cling to the
blessed hope that We shall be united in
some more perfect sphere but, so far
as this earth is concerned, there is an
end of him. However near and dear he
was, the time arrives when he does not
form part of our daily thought; he
ceases ever to be an attraction. We 90
no more with flowers and tears into the
quiet cemetery only the rain and the
snow fakes fall there we leave it for
the fingers of spring to deck the neglect
ed mound. But when our friend vanish
es unaccountably in the midst of crowd
ed city, or goes off on a sea voyage and
Is never heard of again, his memory has
singular tenacity. He may be to all
lntents and purposes, dead, but we have
not lost him. The ring of the door bell
at midnight may be his ring the ap-
preaching footstep may be his footstep
the unexpected letter with foreign post
marks may be from his hand. He haunts
US as the dead never can. The woman
whose husband died last night may mar
ry again within a lustre of months. Do
you suppose week passes by when the
woman whose husband disappeared mys
terlously ten years ago does not think
of him ? There are moments when the
opening Of door must startle her.
There Is no real absence but death.
