Proverbs.

A man may buy gold too dear.
A light purse is heavy curse.
A little leak will sink a big ship.
All lay loads on the willing horse.
"A fault confessed is half redressed.
A wise layer-up is a wise layer-out.
ALL are not friends that speak us fair.
A quiet conscience sleeps in thunder.
A guilty conscience needs no accuser.
An oak tree is not felled with one blow
A bad workman quarrels with his tools.
A good name keeps its luster in the
dark.
A nod from lord is breakfast for a
fool.
Always put your saddle on the right
horse.
An honest mans word is as good as
his bound.
An unlawful oath is better broke than
kept.
A man may hold his tongue at the
wrong time.
An hour in the morning is worth two
in the afternoon.
An ounce of mother wit is worth a
pound of book learning.

From a Farmers Note. Book.

Sow for Hungarian grass last week in
May; half bushel to acre; cut before
seed ripens, to prevent injurious effects
on stock. 1t draws heavily on the fer
Sility of the soil, and should be sown
only when deficiency of other hay is
likely to occur.
For orchard grass SOW with oats, or
other spring grain crop, full two bushels
OF seed to acre; must be thick or will
grow In tufts; makes good hay, and, for
pasture, grows faster than any grass.
Cayenne pepper, mixed in the cooked
food of fowls, will make them lay many
more eggs than if not so fed. Make a
pudding daily, winter and summer, of
Indian meal or meal and bran, and season
it strong with pepper, and it will pay
well.
When potatoes are planted in the gar
den or field near the house, if few peas
are dropped into every other hill and
every alternate row, good crop of green
peas may be secured for the family table,
the vines being supported by the potato
vines. Marrowpots or other thrifty
growing varieties are best. The potato
crop Is not lessened thereby.
The best variety of grapes for general
cultivation is the Concord; but for some
parts of Central New York and some
parts of the New England States, the
Hartford Prolific may ripen better, it
being week earlier than the Concord
but not as good grape.

A Hint in Dutch.

A plucked goose is the appropriate de-
vice (for both parties) in most lawsuits.
Victims are rarely lucky enough to
realize this as seasonably as in the case
here given: A Lancaster (Pa. lawyer is
said to be the originator of the following
Joke: Being called upon by both parties
to suit, he informed the last one of his
inability to serve him, but gave him a
note to another advocate, who would, no
doubt, take his case. Somewhat dubious
he hunted up friend who could read
the note, the purport of which was
"Awa fette gems; du rost und ich rop"
=" Two fat geese; you pluck and T
pluck" On sharing the contents with
his opponent, they settled the case be-
tween them.

Modern Medical Discovery.

1t is claimed that disease, with few
exceptions, has been conquered by the
research and intellect of enlightened
men; and yet noted professor of New
York admits that " of all sciences, medi-
cine is the most uncertain" and that
" thousands are annually slaughtered in
the sick ROOM" Certain "schools" " of
medicine are in existence, one Of which
"makes the patient ILL.," in order to
claim a cure; and another administers
sugar-coated bread pills." relying upon
nature to effect her own cures. DIR. J.
Walker, OF California, an old and re-
sspected physician, tried both modes of
treatment and both failed. He then
appealed to natures curative-herbs !:
and now enjoys rugged health. he has
given the benefit of his discovery to fine
w2rld, in the shape of Vinegar Bitters.
and since. its introduction has sold a
quantity almost large enough to make a
small harbor, or to float the Great
Eastern. Its curative properties are at
tested by grateful thousands.

Making Soft SOaD.

Mary q. West has the following chat
with nelghbor, and as she gives few
good hints as to making soft soap, we
quote entire:
asked.
"l put ashes in large barrel till it
was full, and then allowed water to
soak through from the top in the usual
way"
Was your lye strong enough to bear
an egg so soon as it came from the
barrel p 'o
Yes"
And did it seem to cut up the
grease z"
Yes"
=, well, that was all righteS-what was
the trouble with it, then9''
Why, the lye and the grease would
not unite; when it had cooled the grease
was all on the top and the lye at the
bottom-it's always just my luck"
What kind of wood did you burn
to make your ashes?"
Oak, bay and magnolia
And what did you put in the
bottom of your barrel, under your
ashes2"
Nothing but little fine brush and
broom sedge, to keep the ashes from
running out"
All has been perfectly right except
the last-in that lies the secret of your
bad luck. You should have put at the
bottom of your vessel few pounds of
qulcklir1e-that you are likely always to
lind necessary when you burn swamp
wood. Ashes from swamp wood have a
great power to absorb carbonic acid from
the atmosphere, and carbonic acid pro.
duces the effect which you name; but
lime neutralizes the acid and makes il
all right"

must help it to beat rightly by the use of such

Il CITY 10000 YEARS OLD.

II the current number OF the OrerldnA,
Californian gcoligist reviews the geologi-
cal evidence Of the antiquity of human
settlement near the present town Of Chero-
kee in that State, and estimates the age of
that most ancient of discovered towns to be
not less than 10000 years!
The data for all such calculations are
necessarily uncertain, as they are derived
from the present motions of the continents
and presents rates of erosion: still, from the
changes that have taken place since the
pioneers of prehistoric California left their
traces on its ancient sea shore, there can be
no doubt that thousands OF centuries must
have come and gone.
The traces in. question are numerous
stone mortars, found in undisturbed white
and yellow gravel of subaqueous forma-
ton, not nuviatile, underlying the vast
sheets Of volcanic rock of which Table
Mountain is part. In one instance NOR
tar was found standing upright, with tho
pestle in it, apparently just as it had been
left by its owner. In some cases the NOR
tars have been found at the depth of forty
feet from the surface of the gravel under
lying Table Mountain.
The distribution of the mortars is such
ns to indicate with great positivenoss the
former existence of human settlement on
that ancient beach when the water stood
near the level at which they occur: time
anterior to the volcanic outpouring which
Table Mountain records, and anterior to the
glacial epoch.
The recent geological history of that re-
sion may be briefly summed as follows:
Previous to the placing of the mortars in
the position in which they have been found,
the early and middle tertiary sea level had
recc,lel to the position of the coal beds un-
DERIVING Table Mountain, fully one thou
sand feet below the level of Cherokee.
Subsequently, in the pliocene period. there
was n further subsistence of about fifteen
hundred feet, something like six hundred
feet occurring after the mortars had been
abandoned. All this, as has been noticed,
took place before the volcanic outfiows
which covered NJ all the ancient detritus of
The region, including that of the ancient
rivers Whose gravels have furnished so
much of the gold of California;. The geo.
logical age Of the river period was deter
mined by Lesquereux from specimens OF
vegetation, now extinct, collected in the sur
vey of the ancient rivers; specimens indicat-
ing fora of the rliocene age, retaining
some characteristic miocene forms.
