"A young woman thought to p'ake a
little fun for ner neiehhprs on last Tues-
day evening. and accordingly donned a
suit of mems clothing and called on
them. She created much merriment,
and was succeeding nicely until she ar

breast Of the husband. She knocked at
the door, and the husband. who was

with his fist and spraw!ed her on her
back. This ended her fun. The re.

optics with raw beefsteak. They are
both somewhat dilapidated.

Wilmington pouarette.

Among the many fertilizers offered to
the farmer and gardener, we know of
none 80 cheap and so good as the "Poud-
rette," manufactured by the Whining
ton POudrette Company.
The agricultural editor Of the Dela,paye
State Journal, DR.. S. r. Schofeld, who
used it on his wheat crop in the autumn,
says: 1--WE used it on our wheat by the
side OF o compost OF great intrinsic value,
which is rapidly bringing up our poor
land, and found its effect was marked
and satisfactory; its low price ought to
give it IN extensive trial" We shall
speak Of it again when our wheat is har-
vested, and would like to try it on corn,
for which we believe it well adapted, es-
pecially to give it quick start. A friend
Of ours who has used Poudrette. speak.
ing OF his experience in the use Of this
fertilizer, says, although the seasoa has
been bad one on account Of the long
continued drouth, still I never saw bet
ter corn or more to the acre, than LTais.
ed this year. am satisfied the use Of
the 'fPoudrette" increased the Yield full
ly one-third, it gives the corn an early
start, makes it grow rapidly, giving less
work to cultivate it; also find it sure
preventive Of the cut or wire worm,
which often destroys the young corn or
cuts the roots. 1t more than doubled my
yield Of potatoes and cabbage. At the
extremely low price at which it il offered
it certainly pays handsomely to use it.
We commend the subject to the careful
consideration Of our country friends, and
bespeak for it general sale for spring

A California Lion Carries OLA Child.

The Grass Valley (Cal.) Union tells
this story: ''Some time since a resid.
ent of Grass Valley had occasion to go
to Siskiyou County, and while travel
ing over Mount Shasta he saw four
large California lions. Not knowing
much of their savage characteristics,
he stopped his horse and gazed at
them. They looked at him for some
time and then turned and slowly trot-
ted away. He had no weapons, and
had they been hungry he would not
have returned to tell his experience.
When he came to stopping place that
night he told of his adventure, when
one of the residents there told him that
one of those lions had short time be.
fore stolen child under the following
circumstances: The mother of the
child had occasion to do some washing,
and for this purpose had to go into the
enclosure that surrounded the back
door. She placed the child-a girl
about eighteen month old-on the
ground, and gave it some play things
to amuse itself with while she busted
herself with the work, with her back
to the child. IA few minutes after this
she heard a scream from the child, and
turned just in time to see full grown
California lion leaping over the fence
with the unfortunate child in its mouth
The mother tainted, and, no one else
being near, she lay in this condition
for some time. When she recovered
an alarm was raised and pursuit made,
but no trace could be found OF the lost
child"

Ill Had Leisure.

"If had leisure, would repair that
weak place in my fence" said farmer
He had none, however, and while drinking
cider with neighbor, the cows broke in
and injured prime piece of corn. He had
leisure then to repair his fence, but it did
not bring back his corn.
"If had leisure" said wheelwright, last
winter, u would alter my stove.pipc, for
know it is not safe" But he did not find
time, and when his shop caught fire, and
burned down, he found leisure to build
another.
"If had leisure" said mechanic, ~
should have my work done in season." The
man thinks his time has been all occupied.
but he was not at work till after sunrise !;
lie quit work at five o'clock, smoked a
cigar after dinner, and spent two hours on
the street talking nonsense with an idler.
"1f had leisure" said q merchant. 81
would pay more attention to accounts
The chance is, my friend, ifyou had leisure,
you would probably pay less attention to
the matter than you do now. The thing
lacking with hundreds of farmers who till
the soil is no more leisure, but more reso.
lution-the spirit to do-to do now. Ifthe
farmer who sees the fence in poor condi-
ton would only act at once, how much
might be saved. 1t would prevent breechy
cattle creating quarrels among neighDors,
that in many cases terminate in lawsuits,
which take nearly all they are both worth
to pay the lawyers.-Aanual Of Phrenology
and Physiognomy for 1875.

Hiding a Diamond in his Leg.

An old man, well known in Brussels, who
would appear every afternoon with mathe-
NAUTICAL regularity in the st. Hubert arcade,
where he would walk for exactly one hour,
from four to five o'clock, died recently in
that city. The oldest jewellers in that
quarter of Brussels remember to have seen
him take his daily promenade for many
years back without ever conversing with
any one. Among his papers a will was
found in which he asked to be buried in a
neighboring cemetery by his wife's side,
and requested that a person who now fills
an exalted position in st. Petersburg be
informed of his death. 1t appears when
young he was employed in d;amond-p pro-
duting district in Asia.
One day he found an enormous diamond
and determined to secure it for himself
The difficulty was how to escape the lynx
eyed agents. He made deep wound in
the calf of his leg in which he concealed
the diamond. He then pretended that he
had been wounded and his leg was bound
up and he was authorized to leave the dis
trict. He succeeded in escaping to Rus
STA, where he sold the gem for q large sum.
1t is now one of the crown diamonds OF
Russia. Having thus acquired wealth, our
hero travelled all over the world In Eng
land he married young lady, who died in
Brussels some years ago. After her death
he did not leave the city where she was
buried.

Elephant Laborers.

1t would be too long to relate all the
uses to which elephants are applied in Bur.
mah. Let us watch them at work among
the woodyards where the trunks of tick
wood tree, which come floating down the
river, are piled. Every working-elephant
IS mounted by driver called "cornac,"
whose principal business is rather to excite
the animal than to direct it.
In the season when the roads are cut,
the trunks come down the bar much faster
than they can be disposed Of in the saw
mills, and they accumulate in vast quanti-
ties all along the banks. 1t is necessary,
therefore, to drag the trees out of the wa
Ter and arrange them in piles until such
time as they can be cut up. There are on
ly three sorts of piles, varying with the
size of the trees. First an elephant in the
water clears the logs from the mass and
ranges them one by one upon the river
bank. He carefully examines the chaos of
logs and proceeds with tusks and trunk to
disengage the tree he has selected and
which he intends to carry to land. AS
soon as the tree is placed on the bank an
other elephant is harnessed to it and drags
it to the woodward, where he leaves it,
Two other elephants now como up, and
one of them takes one end of the log upon
his trunk and drags it to the pile upon
which, in view of its size. it ought to be
placed, while his companion assists him by
pushing the log with MI his might. AS
soon as they reach the proper pile the first
elephant lifts the top OF the log upon the
pile, then he forms a kind nf ring around
the log with his trunk. while the other with
vigorous blow of his head shoots the log
into its place. The intelligence displayed
10y these animals is almost incredible, and
we should scarcely have believed it if we
had not seen their movements as described

Experimenting to Some Purnos


q. w. Lloyd, the architect, desired some
hre-proof brick the other day for the floor
OF new barn, but when he learned the
cost per thousand he determined to exper.
lment little with some common bricl,
He procured few hundred and had then,
delivered on the vacant lot on MICHIGAN
Avenue, between Third and Fourth streets
where they were placed in large vat, such
as the PAYERS use in which to heat their tar.
and allowed to absorb the hot tar for four
hours. In that length of time the bricks
were as black as the tar itself, and soaked
iull OF 1T, and when allowed to cool off il
was found that their solidity had been
greatly increased. A reporter of the Free
tTess struck one Of the bricks eight or ten
hard blows before he could even break a
piece otf,and to strike one with q hammer is
INK striking rock. Subjected to the same
tests as the regular fre-proof brick. the
tar-soaked brick came out finely. To de-
.efmlne their fire-proof qualities, mum.
per OF the brick were passed into the blaz-
ing furnace, and after severe test thew
came out without flaw or crack: in fact
they were rendered stronger and tougher
