Here is something for young
men 10 consider if they care any
thing about happy longevity:
Young men are careless of lon
gevity; but how precious arc ad-
ded years TO the'fullDcss Of the in-
telIectual life. There are lives,
such as that Of Maj. Pcndennis,
which only diminish in value as
they advance-when the man OF
fashion is no longer fashionable,
and the sportsman can no longer
stride over the pIoughed fields.-
The old age of the Maj. Pendenni-
scs is assuredly not to be envied;
but how rich is the age Of the Hum
boldts. l compare the life OF the
intellectual to a long wedge OF gold
tho thin end Of it begins at birth,
and the depth and value Of it go on
indefinitely increasing till at last
comes Death Ga parsonage for
whom Nathaniel Hawthorne had
a peculiar dislike, for his unman-
nerly habit of interruption, who
stops the auriferous processes. Oh
the mystery OF the nameless ones
who have died when the wedge
was thin and looked 80 poor and
light, Oh the happiness OF the for
tunate old men, whose thoughts
went deeper and deeper like wall
that runs out into the sea,

SIAMESE TWINS.
A Curious Account Twenty-SIN Years
AEO--IIOW They GOurted and
LiYed-Queer and Won
derfuI Details.

Since the remarkable discovery made
by the physicians at the autopsy upon
the bodies of the twins in Philadel-
phia, that they could not have been
separated in life without causing the
death of both, public interest in all
that pertains to their lives and histo-
ry, has been upon the increase. Many
readable accounts have already b4en
given to the public regarding the ear
~ history of the wonderful pair, but
the following account of visit to
their home twenty-six years ago, and
among other things, the spcculations
INDUCED in at that time relative to
their separation, Is peculiarly inter
esting. The queer details of this
visit are given in an exceedingly racy
and truthful manner, and came from
a COPY of the Randolph Herald, print
ed in Ashborough, n. O., on the 18th
of April, 1913. 1t is dated Trap Hill,
Wilkes county, N. c., January 9th,
1913, and originally appeared in the
SoutherHcr. The correspondent, who
is of the feminine gender, says:
now proceed TO fill my engagement
to the readers of the SOUtherHer. Mr.
James S. Grant, at whose house L was
entertained for several days, accom-
paaied me tO this notable place,
Trap Hill" TRAP Hill" is two miles
from the residence of the family of
Eng, or, as he Is now called, Eng
Bunckner. The name of Bunckner
was conferred upon the twins by a
Judge of the Superior Court OF North
Carolina, in order, understand, to
/ enable them the better to transact any
/ legal business which might be neces-
sary At TRAP HilI' Mr.. q and my
self understood that the twins were
at their new place in Surrey county,
and forty miles distant from ''TraT
Hill" But learniSg that Mrs. Sarah
Bunokuer, (wife of Eng) was at home,
we determined TO spend n night ut heI
/ house, aud see If the wife of one ol
/ the twins was Just like other ladies'
/ We arrived at her house Just before
dark. Mrs Eng is about twcnty-siz
years old, and n round and as plump

Sarah Latcs. Mrs. Eng is a real spec,
linen of mountain lady. Her per
son is portly, and her countonance
quite pleasant. Her conversational
/ powers are above mcdiority. Hcr
/ mother, Mrs. Lates, died Il year ago,
weighing 600 pounds. Mrs. Eng has
been married five years, and has three
children, viz: Catherine MarcclliS,
aged four years; Julian, aged three
years, and Decatur, aged two years.

THE BIG DEDsTEAD,

We were, ON arriving, shown into
the bedroom of Mrs. Eng, (therc be-
ing no fire i'll the parlor, and the
weather exceedingly cold, where we
saw herself and the three children all
comfortably seated around the fire.
The first important object that arrest
cd my attention was the big bed

They were to me objects of great Gu
riosity, and could not keep my eyes
from them. Finally, my curiosity

rose so high that was compelled TO
ask Mrs. Eng what use they made of
that 'big bedstead and bed" She re-
Piled as follows: "Our family is quite
big when the twins and my sister and
her children all come to see me, and
the twins made the big bedstead,
I for'nothing shorter would do all on US.
1 blushed a little, and then resumed;
''You are quite Il loving family

GOING 10 BED.


The Twins appeared well pleased
to have me to stop at their house and
begged me to stay a week with them.
After supper some two or three hours
we went to bed, they in the big room,
bat not in the big bedstead, and in
a little room adjoining. The children
were put in a trundle-bed, and Mrs.
Chang, of course. ''tOok sides with
her husband.
On the next morning they apollo
gized to me for having disturbed my
rest by getting up some four or five
times. They had a girl runaway, who
had the previous night been seen in
their kitchen, and they expected to be
able to find her that night.
The Twins dressed very poorly;
when saw them they had on pants
made Of country homespuu, and cot
ton Osnaburg shirts. They always
complain of being very poor, say they

RAsPING HoRsEs' FEET.-A sensible
blacksmith talks in the Canada Farmer
about the habit of rasping the hoofs of
horses in the following emphatic manner
and it will be well for horse owners to
give his views candid consideration:
Rasping down the feet nicely, as they
call 1t, is quite passion with some peo-
pie. have often rasped the hoof, and
the owner of the horse standing by to
tell when it would suit him. This rasp-
ing on hoOf that happened to be lit
tie ill-shaped, until it will spring under
your finger, is far too dangerous plan
formaking things look well. have of
ten commenced on hoofs that had beau.
tiful gloss all over, and given them q
, thorough rasping not that 1 could make
them any better, for that was beyond
the power of human hands; but they
had to be rasped merely because tn,
owners mind was slave to fashion o.
fancy. The rasping takes the stron!
surface off the hoof, and Nature tryin!
all she can to make up for the evil don,
by injudicious hands, forms a hard
glossy surface to protect the foot. Thi
glossy surface takes the place of tn
previous tough horn; and at the mex
shOeing the foot will probably split
little at the nails and not unfrequentl
the nail punches piece out before it.

BE GENTLE WITH THE Cows.-Many
cases are recorded of human mothers
who have sucked their young children
Immediately after they (the mOthers) had
been in violent rage, when the children
have died suddenly in commissions, show
ing that by the sudden and violent ex-
citement of the nervous system, this
bland and nutritious fluid can be, and
often is, converted into poison of rabid
and deadly operation. 1t is obvious
that cows, during lactation, are in pc
culiar sensitive and susceptible condi-
ton, requiring the most generous and
gentle treatment. They are the most
dooile and valuable of all our domestic
animals, and none but a brutal owner
will allow them to be treated with any
thing but kindness.
We are confident that careful observa
ton and study on the part of our dairy
men of the subject of tainted or vitiatet
milk will disclose the fact that the favo
of milk depends almost entirely upol
the air and food received by the animal
while its Quantity or the proportions o
Its constituent elements, win be foun
to depend largely upon the condition G
the nervous system at or just before tim
of milking. The calm, gOod-naturec
petted COW gives the most and best milk
while the wild, il-tempered, and abuse
COW gives the least and poorest.-Co

LARGE YIELD OF BUTTER.

I have COW from whose milk was
churned, in six days, thirteen pounds of
butter; in the next six days twelve and
One-half pounds the next seven days
fourteen and one-half pounds; q little
over two pounds per day. The average
will be, to the time of going to grass,
two pounds per day, strong. l have a
farrow cow that weighs 1860 pounds; ;
these COWS are natives, both of an age.
and from the same bull.
These cows are fed on hay cut from
the tenth to the twenty-frst of June, 20
pounds each per day; two quarts of corn
and cob meal made into thin swill, in
the morning, and two quarts potatoes at
evening; that is their regular feed per
day. That makes the butter above and
the flesh on the farrow COW, and her
milk, well pay her keeping. The butch
er says she is the latest creature there
is in town. Then | have a calf from
this farrow COW that weighs $50 pounds
at twelve months old. This shows what
can be advanced by cutting the hay as
above described, and regularity in feed
ing and milking the cows. The feed of
the calf is about eight pounds of hay
per day, two quarts milk, and one quart
potatoes, morning and evening.
Mr. A. Scott, of Craftsbury, VT. who
communicated the above statements to
the Mirror and Farmer, was one of the
first farmers in New England who dared
to boldly start out with his scythe in
June and cut his hay before it was more
than half grown. About the time his
neighbors were finishing theirs, he found
the other half grown, which was cut as
a second crop, thus giving him two crops
of rowen, instead of one of ripe hay
1t is several years since we have heard
from this bold pioneer in the new prac
tice of cutting grass for cows instead o
hay, and we are glad to learn that he i
still successful in his experiments, a
the above record would indlcate.-N. E

FEMALE SocIETY.-lt is better for you
to pass an evening once or twice week
in lady's drawing room, even though
the conversation is slow, and you know
the girls song by heart, than in club,
tavern, or the pit of theatre All
amusements of youth. to which virtuous
women are not admitted, rely on it, are
deleterious in their nature All men
who avoid female society have dull per-
captions and are stupid. or have gross
tastes, and revolt against what is pure.
Your club swaggerers. who are sucking
the butts of billiard cues all night, call
female society insipid. Poetry is unin-

for a blind man; music does not please
poor beast who does not know one tune
