CARE OF DRIED FRUITS.

From the last years crop of fruit there
are tons and tons of dried apples stored
away in the farmers garrets in boxes,
chests and bags, waiting and ready to sup
ply the family tables whenever they shall
be needed. The careful housewife will
give such stories an occasional examina-
ton, to see that nothing is wasted from
the effects of damp weather, insects or
vermin. After apples are thoroughly
cured, probably there is nothing better
for storing them in than tight, clcan boxes
or barrels. If flour barrels are used. they
should first be washed entirely clean, as
-four adhering to the sides or heads Is
liable to mould and injure the quality Of
the fruit within. Tight barrels or boxes
are best, because they shut out the damp
air in stormy weather, and also exclude
those insects which are always seeking to
deposit their eggs, and from which hatch
the worms or maggots which injure 30.
much of the dried fruit which is carelessly
cared for If stored in bags, the bags
should be fine and clean, and tied tightly,
so as to exclude all insects which might
cause injury to the fruit. m gks 3a,
We have all had smarting evidences, Of
the ease with which mosquitoes can thrust
their bills through the fabric even Of our
best and finest clothes, and those insects
which deposit the eggs Of the apple worm
have the ability TO put their eggs through
pretty small holes if necessity requires.
If convenient to do so, bags Of dried fruit
should be hung in the open air ofan upper
room. where the air can circulate freely.
and prevent injury from mould and damp
ness. Housekeepers on farm find this \
busy time of year. with fruit to dry and to
can, pickles to preserve. and catsup and
other relishes to prepare, and 1t is all too
hard work to have such labor lost for want
of little watching and timely care dur
ing the changing weather Of summer and
fall. The dog day weather is past now,
and our houses should have good airing
and the family stores a thorough summing
and scalding, as necessity requires. Don't
let mould and decay spoil the results OF
hard toll. for the want of little timely
forethought and careful attention now

The altitude Of the Stevens mine
on Mount Mcclellan is 12,50O feet.
A, the depth Of from 80 to 200 feet
the crevice matter, consisting of
silica, caic'te, and ore, together with
the surrounding wall rock, is solid
frozen mass. Mcclellan is one Of the
highest eastern spurs Of the snowy
range; it has the form of horse
shoe, with a bold escarpment of
feltspha,ic rock nearly 1000 feet
high, which in some places is nearly
perpendicular. Nothing unusual oc-
Cured until distance of some 50 or
90 feet had been made; then the
frozen territory was reached, and it
has continued for over 200 feet.
There are no indications of thaw,
summer or winter. The whole frozen
territory is surrounded by hard, mas
sive rock, and the lode itself is as
hard and massive AS the rock.
The miners, being unable to exca-
vate the frozen material with pick
and drill, found that the only way
was to kindle large wood fire at
night against the back end of the
tunnel, and in the morning take out
The disintegrated ore. This has been
the mode Of mining for more than
two years. The tunnel is over 290
feet deep, and there is no diminution
of the frost. There is, so far as can
be seen, no opening or channel
through which the frost could posi-
bly, have reached such depth from
the surface. There are other mines
in the same vicinity in like frozen
state. The theory is that the rock
was laid down in glacial times, when
there was cold enough to freeze the
very earth's heart In that case the
mine is an ice house whose stores
have remained unthawed for at least
$4,000 years! The phenomenon is
not uncommon or inexplicable when
openings can be found through which
a current of air can pass; but cases
which, like the Brandon frozen vel
and the Stevens mine, show no way
for fair currents, are still referred to
imbedded icebergs and the glacia'
period.

AT recent meeting of the State
Medical Society of Ohio, the Presi-
dent, DIR. Washington Atlee, spoke
Of the delicate girl, pallid and wan,
struggling YEARLY under load of
clothing all suspended, not from her
shoulders, but from her necessarily
CONSTRUCTED waist. See this beautiful
peafowl as she draws her long trail
through the tobacco juice; the slush
and mud Of our dirty pavements,
scraping up sticks, straws, old paper,
cigar stumps and filthy quids of to-
bacco, and dropping them at every
crossing, and thus block after block
repeating the same disgusting and in
furious performance. She finally
reaches home worn out with her bur-
den, her costly dress smeared with
the most offensive filth, her stocking
soiled, her limbs wet and cold"
She had as much stuff in her floun-
ces and pack k-saddles as would make
an old style dress. This is not ALL
Her heel mark is scarcely larger than
the thumb nail, skip, and the i'm.
preston Of very narrow sole. 1t is
only five or six inches long. The
heathen Chinee could scarcely do bet
ter. Look al this shoe. A heel two
inches high shaved down to point,
placed almost under the instep. In
stead of the oscacis, she uses the
scaphoid cubold MS the heel. Instead
OF the supports being on level. the
heel is tilted up two inches higher,
the fopt is crowded forward he great
toe j. forced over the others. She -
constantly walking down hill, aud in
health is going down hill all the time.
All this forces her entire frame out
of its proper line, and she is compell-
ed, in order to maintain her perpen-
dicula,, to throw her hips back. He
contrasted the real and the fashiona-
BILE woman, and thus accounted for
many of her ailments. He urged a
change in dress, that no longer should
women be thus travestied and injur-
ed by fashion He alluded to the
fearful increase in the use, bv women,
Of tonics, and stimuants,as partly the
result Of their inaispostion from these
abominablc dress fashions, and urged,
very emphatically, reform in this
respect.

|. is said that Mr.. Tlton, when in
formed of the discharge of the jury in
the Beecher case, standing nine for
acquittal and three for conviction, de
clared it to be great moral victory
for him. 1t was Napoleon Bonaparte.
il we remember rightly, who once re-
marked that nothing was worse than
a great victory except great defeat.
Ii Tilton is capable OF drawing any
consolation from the "yictory"he has
achieved, he must be a wonderfully
constituted individual. If any one
person, more than another, has receiv-
ed the worst of it in the encounter
following his charges against Mr..
Beeeher, that person is Mr.. Theodore
Tilton. Who ever else may have
been singed, that individual has been
most thoroughly scorched; whoever
else may have been daubed or spat
tered, that individual has been most
fearfully bedraggled. However 9th
ers may have fallen in the public es-
timation, he has, morally, sunk out of
right; and, if any name is offensive
in the nostrils Of decent people, it is
the name Of Mr.. Theodore Tilton. A
great moral victory indeed.

of his wife, the legitimacy of his own
children, and the honor of one who
had treated him in his better days
will! more than fathers kindness

filed all Christendom with its baieful
etfluvium, simply because the object
of its attack was held in honor
throughout all the civilized world; af-
ter all his manifest efforts to do evil
to his former friend and benefactor,
and after all the exposure of his own
unsavory nature, he regards the fail
ure of the jury, for the want of three
votes only, fully to acquit and exon
crate Mr.. Beecher, as "a great moral
victory for himself!

A thresher in Story county gives
his ideas on stacking grain, as fol-
lows:
wish to say few words to the
farmer through the Inter- Ocean in
regard to saving small grain. Much
has been said about preparing the
land for a crop and how to raise it,
but ! have never seen one word in
print as to how to save it after il was
raised. AS a general thing, farmers
are careless how their grains are
stacked, and | believe my experience
would justify me in saying that
enough grain is spoiled in the stack
yearly to pay the threshing bill,
which would amount to large sum
of money. own one-half Of
thresher, and have been threshing for
five seasons, and many OF the stacks
would have been better turned over,
or the other end up. We often find
stacks huddled together SO close that
a machine cannot get in until forty
or fifty dozen of bundles are taken
out, and the farmer will grumble be-
cause it takes SO long to set the ma
chine. Ten feet is enough for bot
tom for stack and wide enough for
a rick, and they should be far enough
apart to leave seven feet span be-
tween them at the bulge. The in
side courses should be laid down
closely and solid, in order that the
center will not settle, and the outside
course laid loosely, that it may settle
more than the center. All stacks
should have good bulge. In stack
ing fax, never tramp the outside,
but stand or walk around in the CEN
ter, leaving the outside to settle.
That is the way | find grain keeps
best.

She was talking of returning home
when young John, walking home
from school one evening, was seen to
leap clear of the ground, and heard
to exclaim:
"I'il do it this very nightl'
That evening bis wearied aunt, re-
posing on the sofa, asked him to
bring her glass Of water. Floating
on the top Of the water was pumkin
seed, rubbed as smooth as glass, and
securely tied around the seed was
silk thread twenty feet long. She
raised the glass and down went the
seed, and pretty soon she coughed
two or three times and complained
of tickling in her throat. He reach
ed and gaye the string a pull, and
she sprang up with yell.
ibid something bite you?' he in
quired with great solicitude.
ave got ha-ha-hair in my
til -throat-a-h-h." she gasped,
coughing vigorously.
"May be you swallowed a hair
snake!' he suggested, giving the
string another pull.
81 did did-a-h-h-a." she
screamed, 81 feel it biting me!'
''Does it seem to move:?" he asked,
as he ierkcd the string again.
"l -ves-ah"" she yelled, clawing
around.
Her hand struck the string, and
after little investigation she found
that was attached to something.
"Well, now-you've swallowed the
toy made for baby" he said, as he
hauled in on the string and lifted her
off the lounge.
She coughed-gasped-made mo-
tions and rolled her eyes, and that
boy kept jerking the string, while he
sympathized with her, and demanded
to know how he could aid her His
mother was down to the grocery, and
when she returned she found the
aunt choking and coughing in the
big arm chair, and John stood ten
feet off holding the string and telling
her to cough hard while he pulled.
1t was finally decided to cut the string
close to her mouth and let her swal-
low it, but all that night she tossed
and groaned and sighed for fear she
had swallowed lead nickle or
horse fly instead of a pumkin seed.
She took the cars for home yester-
day, and when John serenely kissed
her good-by at the depot and slipped
a well-w worn euchre deck into her
pocket, she wiped her ewes and said
that it seemed to her as if he wouldn't
live long-he was so good.

He may use them to help build his

himself out of his door with them
since he has no feet. But | should
think three or four hundred spears

about the Golden Combus Worm up

fellows, who live quietly there, and
who don't fancy being dragged out
to the light and air, ! can tell you.
Nor could we see how they did live
when we did get them out but for the
aquarium. When We can get them
to feel at home in one of those we
can study them at our leisure. The
little fellow l have told you about is
not often found, but one fell into the
hands of Mr.. Gorse, an English gen
tleman, and after week or two,
when it got used to the light and be-
gan to feel at home in the aquarium,
he studied its ways with his micro
scope, and told us all have told you.
Those little Tube Builders are the
oldest masons known in the world.
Long before men built their houses
of brick and stone, clumsily cement
ed together, these insignificant little
worms at the bottom of the sea built
their beautiful houses in that way.
In truth, there's hardly an instrument
or tool that man can invent, or any
way Of doing things that they can
contrive, that we do not find, in
greater perfection than men ever ar
rive at, in tiny atoms of insects and
other living creatures.

10 THY LITTLE.

Do thy little, do it we'll;
Do what right and reason tell;
Do what wrong and sorrow claim,
Conquer sin and cover shame
Do thy little, though 1t be
Dreariless and drudgery;
They whom Christs apostles made
Gathered fragments" when He bade
Do thy little, never mind
Though thy brethren be unkind;
Though the men who ought to smile,
Mock and taunt thee for while.
Do thy little, never fear
While thy Saviour standeth near;
Let the world its javelins throw,
On thy way undaunted 60.
Do thy little, God has made
Million leaves for forest shade;
Smallest stars their glory bring,
God employeth everything.
Do thy little, and when thou
Feelest on thy pallid brow;
Ere has fed thy vital breath,
Cold and damp, the sweat of death.
Then the little thou hast done
Little battles thou hast won,
Little masteries achieved,
Little wants with care relieved,
Little words in love expressed,
Little wrongs at once confessed,
Little favors kindly done,
Little tolls thou did'st not shun,
Little graces meekly worn,
Little sights with patience borne,
These shall crown thy pillowed head,
Holy light upon thee shed;
These are treasures that shall rise
Far beyond the smiling skies.
These to thee shall all be given
For thy heritage in Heaven.
These shall all perfume the air.
When thy spirit enters there.
Yet they still will linger here,
And thy name shall long endear
For legacy shall be
In their deathless memory

Good judgment and care should be
exercised in selecting heifers for be-
coming good mixers. Mr.. Summer
ton says the teats and udder should
always be of good size, and in four
distinct quarters. Should all four
cluster together, the calf must be
discarded at once, as good COW
must have room for the milk, and
convenience for obtaining it. We
should be little particular about
this. as it is the foundation in ma
king a choice. A keen eye is as
much to be admired in a calf as in a
horse, and also symmetrical and
fawn-like appearance from head to
tail. 1t is not safe to select calf
because it is large, as such will not
always make large cows. One that
does not cut up we'll in the throat
shonld not be selected. 1t would be
we'll to notice this in selecting bull
calf for breeding, as an animal that
one could not keep halter on With.
out choking, no one wants.
