Too Much Husband.

len years ago a young Brooklyn
girl named Frances Baker married
Smith w. Post, but didn't prove a
good hitch and they soon separated.
Then she married a car-conductor
named Mitchell, first telling him.
though, of her marriage with Post,
and being advised by Post to marry
him. The latter, however, soon tir.
ed of his wife, as had her first hus-
band, and she was again deserted.
SEe next assumed the role of widow,
and, being possessed Of more than
ordinary personal attractions soon
found asuitor in the person Of
wealthy young man named Curtis.
10 him, also, she told the story Of
her previous marriages, but he, moth.
ing daunted, advised her to procure
divorces from the first two husbands.
and furnished the money for that
purpose. She began with the first,
Post. Both were anxious that the
divorce should be granted, but the
case dragged along without reaching
any conclusion till Curtis becoming
impatient, induced Mrs. Mitchell to
become Mrs. Curtis, whereupon Post
had her arrested for bigamv, and
new Curtis has disappeared, and, !
with three husbands, she draws COM |
fort from neither.

Sabbath PietV.

Here is bit of spicy suggestion
from some anonymous source :
'There is mystery about this eff
feet of The weather on piety. Sab
bath heat seems to be hotter; Sab
bath cold colder, and Sabbath rain
wetter than any other day. For the
same measure of heat or cold or rain
on week day will not keep him
from his usual business. We need
a Sabbath almanac, calculated for
our churches, that will show by its
weather scale when it will be safe
for Q vigorous Christian to expose
himself on the Sabbath by going to
the house Of God. Such an alma
nae would enable pastors and super
intendents of Sabbath schools to
know whom they may depend on in
church, Sabbath schools and prayer
meetings.

Luck and Labor.

Many people complain Of their bad
luck when they ought to blame their
own want of wisdom and action.
Like MicaFber in David Copperfield,
they forever stand still waiting for
something to turn up. While Luck
lies in bed and wishes the postman
would bring him news of a legacy
and il specializing upon the wonder
ful things he will then do; Labor
turns out early in the morning and
with busy pen or ringing hammer
earns his fortune and enjoys it.
Luck whines. Labor whistles. Luck
relies on chances Labor on charac-
ter. Luck slips down 60 indulgence /;
Labor strides up to independence.
As Horace Greeley says, THE dark
est day in any mans earthly career
is that wherein he fancies that there
is some easier way Of gaining dol
lar than by squarely earning it,

Says the Boston Globe: A tooth
less couple in one of our rural dis
tricts concluded. after much jaw,
that they would gum it no longer !;
that, in fact, the family must be pro-
vided with new set of teeth. These
worthy people are not given to os-
tentations display; they believed in
having something for a rainy day;
they also firmly believed the doctrine
that the twain were one flesh, and
since one pair of spectacles brass
bound had long sufficed for their
united eyes, why should not one set
of teeth work equally we'll? Accord
ingly, those aged mouths repaired to

of teeth that will bite off plug of
tobacco for ''father," or nibble Sun
day caraway and chatter harmless
gossip for ''mother," with equal pre-
cision Life has now fresh zest and
found a new relish. It is lovely and
beautiful to see them at the little
round table ready for dinner. First,
the old lady picks up the teeth
they are always lying about handy
slips them in and makes good use
of her privileges while father is lay
ing up generous stock of provis-
ions on his plate. Presently he leans
back in his chair, puts down his knife
and fork, and says cheerfully, Come
mother. give me the teeth" Then
the old lady. with true conjugal
alacrity touching to behold, catches |
them out, hands them across the |
table to the old gentleman, who dex |
terously claps them in his own mouth
and the family eating goes complac-
entity. on, till perhaps, mother
comes to hard spot and demands
the molars. So back and forth, like

Fall Pigs

Pigs that come in the fall months.
especially the latter ones, are un.
profitable stock. In the first place,
they are in the way of the fattening
hogs, and from their inability to
''stand from under" are trampled
under foot, have every disadvantage
to contend against, and wear dwarf
ish appearance from which they new
er recover. Besides, they generally
weigh less than any hogs in the fat
tening pen. Take early spring pigs,
and in addition to their regular al
IoWance, give them the same uuan-
tity as that consumed by pigs COM
ing four or five months earlier, and
they will make more and better pork.
and not be chargeable with one.
fourth the trouble of their seniors.
Perhaps the most profitable use that
could be made of them would be as
roasters, or to feed them high through
the winter and sell them to the butch
er in the spring when pork is scarce.
But for the most profit, always take
spring pigs, and feed them plenty OF
milk, meal and clover through the
SIMMER time, and if they are a good |
breed they can be made to weigh at !
eight months old, or at killing time, |
from two hundred to two hundred |
and fifty pounds, and sometimes
more, which is as much as the gener-
ality of hogs from twelve to fifteen
months old will weigh.
When well fed, spring pigs will
gain from one to two and a half
pounds a day, and be found much the
cheapest pork the farmer can raise.
To make them attain their greatest
weight, however, at eight months
old, they not only require the best
Of varied food, with plenty of skim
med milk to begin with, but must
also be one of the best breeds-no
'land-pike' need be so fed with the
of weighing down any
such figures. Nor should the mother
SOW be any thing but thrifty and well
kept through the year. The best
breeds will deteriorate by neglect or
short feeding, and the pigs of SOW
hat has been half fed during gesta-
ion will be puny and slow growing. :
however plenty the subsequent feed
nay be.
