A Murderer,s Will.

Before being hanged for the murder of Samuel J. Jones of South Oyster Bay, Lewis Jarvis made will. After giving his real estate to his wife he dictated the following sections: t... .'
 To my daughter, Georgiana Jackson, one feather bed, which she can have as soon as she likes; also one new stand.
 To my daughter, Mary Louise Jackson, a closet which stands in. the kitchen, and one bedstead.
 To my grandson, Lewis Jackson, 8 ring, @ trunk, and @ watch, as soon as his grandmother is done with them; also the sum of $5, to be placed in Q savings bank, and the principal and interest to remain untouched till he becomes of age.
 To my grandson, Edwa1d H. Jackson, and my granddaughter, Mary Emma Jackson, the sum of $S5 each on the same conditions; and should each of these die before becoming of age, then the money ofsuch deceased shall be equally divided to the surviving grandchildren.
 To my son-in-law, Morris Jackson, one grindstone, one hay fork, one eel spear, and one ax; also one overcoat, one arm chair, one eel basket. .r.
 To Edward Sands Jackson one scythe, one stubbing hoe, one ax and one hay fork. My daughters, Mary Louise and Georgiana, must be good and kind to their mother, and not try to break this will, as it is their fathers wish and re- OueSt

All About Apples.

Apples are now considered more n11tri- tious than potatoes-indeed, many go so far as to think that they contain more brain food than any other fruit or vege- table. However that may be, they cer- tainly exert a healthful influence upon the whole system when eaten raw or cooked in simple manner. When com- pounded with butter, eggs, and flour they are far less wholesome than when baked or steamed. Apples nicely baked and served with cream are delicious dish, and an ingenious housekeeper can easily devise numerous ways of prepar- ing them fer the table, Many methods have been suggested for keeping apples in good condition through the winter. One IS to wrap each apple-as oranges and lemons are wrapped for importation in paper; old newspapers will answer. Paper is not only very impervious to air, but serves to keep the fruit at uni form temperature.' Another method of preserving apples is to put some dry, fine sand into each barrel and shake it down gently; powdered plaster is some times used instead of sand. Another way is to pit the apples in dry, sandy soil. A hole three or four feet deep should be dug, the fruit put in upon dry straw, and covered with layer of straw and dry earth. The earth should be raised above the general level of the ground, so as to shed rain. When thus protected, the apples are said to keep well until spring.

American Geographical Society.

The American Geographical Society has been furnished with important in formation about several national projects, which arc likely to change the features of geography to some extent and which are worthy of notice. One, which has been successfully carried out-the Suez canal-has separated entirely the conti- nents of Asia and Africa. The proposed Isthmus canal, to open communication between the Pacific ocean and the Carib- bean sea, will in the same manner divide the North and South American conti- nents. But there are projects to effect changes in the territory of this republic and not attracting as much attention. Two of these may be especially men toned, because they are near New York and connected with the great centers of commerce, and because there is reason to believe they will soon be accomplished. One is the Maryland and Delaware ship canal, to connect the waters of the Chesa- peake and Delaware bays by the way of the Sassafras river. The cut will be about seventeen miles long, and besides this they will require but few miles of dredging to make water way, without locks, for the largest vessels. It will be made through level country, and there is no rock to be removed. The course is pointed out by nature, as has been shown by able engineers, for the waters flowing to the Chesapeake bay on one side and to the Delaware bay on the other rise at nearly the same point. A gentle and slight elevation forms the divide. The large peninsula, 15O miles long from north to south, and over 65 miles wide at the widest part, compris- ing more than three-fourths of the State of Delaware, nearly all that portion of Maryland on the eastern shore, and the counties of Northampton and Accomac, Virginia-an area of little less than 5000 square miles-wil thus be made an island. The distance to be saved in navigation from Baltimore to New York, the Eastern ports and Europe is 225 miles, and to Philadelphia much more. No ship canal project seems to be more feasible or practicable, and, if the vast commercial wants and advantages be con- sidered, none would be more valuable to the commerce of the Atlantic seaboard. The other ship canal referred to is that of Cape God, which will cut off the pen insula of Barnstable from the main land of Massachusetts. By this Q distance of over 100 miles of dangerous navigation by the outside route and of more than sixty miles by the inside route will be saved for vessels passing between the Eastern ports and those of the North and South. Public attention is being di- rected more and more to such works fo1 the benefit of commerce. President Grant, in his message to Congress, ill 1873, referred especially to this subject of connecting the waters of the interior and along the seaboard. But whether government aid be afforded or not, the demand for commercial facilities, private enterprise and engineering skill will open valuable water ways to save time and money wherever necessary and prac- ticable.
 Exhaustive reports of the projects will soon be placed at the disposition of the Geographical Society," ,.A--. -- -.E.. ,i

Health Hints.

The object of brushing the teeth is to remove the destructive particles of food which, by their decomposition, generate decay. To neutralize the acid resulting from the chemical change is the object of dentifrice. A stiff brush should be used after every meal, and a thread of silk floss or india-rubber passed through be- tween the teeth to remove particles of food. Rinsing the mouth in lime water neutralizes the acid.
 Living and sleeping in room which the sun never enters is a slow form of suicide. A sun bath is the most refresh ing and life giving bath that can possibly be taken.
 Always keep the feet warm, and thus avoid colds. To this end, never sit in damp shoes or wear foot coverings tit- ting and pressing closely. r..
 The best time to eat fruit is half an hour before breakfast.
 A full bath should not be taken less than three hours after a meal. Never drink cold water before bathing. Do not take @ cold bath when tired
 Keep box of powdered starch on the washstand, and after washing rub pinch over the hands. It will prevent chap ping.
 If feeling cold before going to bed, exercise; do not roast over fire.

The Remains of COOlies.

The unloading of an oblong pine box, curiously adorned with Chinese hiero- glyphics, from the western bound train at the depot in Sacramento, Cal, the other day, excited no little curiosity, the qualification of which brought out the fact that the contents were nothing more nor less than the remains of deceased Chinamen, promiscuously thrown to- gether and boxed up for reshipment to the 'Flowery Kingdom. This lot was from Corinne, Utah, and consigned to An Ching, Sacramento. When a suffi- cient number of these boxes, we'll filled, are gathered here to make respectable invoice, they arc forwarded to the proper agent in San Francisco, and thence to their destination. It is said to be one of the most sacred obligations of companies who import coolies to return them, dead or alive, to their native land; and it is curious to note with what zeal tho remains arc brought out, even in the most remote localities where they are known to have died.

Two Pictures.

Somebody's heart is gay,
 And somebody's heart is sad For lights shine out across tho way,
 And door with crape is clad Sadness and gladness alike
 Are dwelling side by side Perhaps the death of an only son,
 And the crowning of bride. ' Bright eyes are filled with mirth,
 Pale faces bend in prayer, And hearts beside the household hearth Aro crushed by stout despair Ah, sorrow, and hope, and joy,
 Are parted by thinnest walls; But on the hearts of the thoughtless ones No shadow of sowow falls No thoughts of the funeral train
 Come to the festive throng; No hope that the past will come again To the anguished hearts belong; Tho futures sunny sea, " = '' 'z' ' ' To the lovers of joy and mirth-' r But the past alone, to those who weep For the sundered ties of earth. Somebody's heart is gay, And somebody's heart IS sad; For the ights are bright across the way, And door with crape is clad Sadness and gladness alike
 Confront us on every side; A wealth of smiles and flood of tears, With hope and sorrow allied!

Died at His Post.

- A Philadelphia paper tells the follow ing story of a car driver in that city who was frozen to death at his post. If true, it IS singular that no name is given. It says: The fortitude displayed by the renowned pilot on tho Lake Erie packet, in meeting death at his post, and saving the lives of the passengers, was emulated by driver of Market street car, who froze to death while driving the car to the depot at Forty first street and Hay erford avenue. When near the depot, the conductor rang the bell, signaling for the car to stop. It was not needed. Again he pulled, and no attention was paid. He then went to the front of the car, and found the driver numb from ex- posture, and dead. The man was sitting upright, with the reins through his hands. When the depot was reached he was removed and effort was made to re- store life, but with no success. The man was unmarried and about twenty six years of age.

Boxing the Ears.

The drum of the ear is as thin as thin paper, and is stretched like curtain be- tween the air outside and that within !; and thus having nothing to support it, and being extremely delicate, n slap with the hand on the side of the face, made with the force which sudden and violent anger gives it,, has in naultitudes of cases ruptured this delicate membrane, result ing in the affliction. of deafness for life. As the right hand is almost always used, it is tho left ear which is stricken this aids in accounting for the fact that the left car is more frequently afflicted with deafness than the right.

The Prohibition Party.

The Prohibition party is organized in only few of the States, and its vote is comparatively trifing in any of them; but as party it does not lose strength. A comparison of the vote cast for the Prohibition candidate for President in 1872 with the vote for Prohibition can- didates for State officers in 1874 shows decided increase as follows:

Hunting n Girl.
BY con c. QUENCE.

You may all think it very nice
thing to be compelled to 60 hunt
ing girl. Just try it once ol
twice, and see if the job is wortl
coveting. AS a general thing, whcl
any one is in want of q girl, the
great trouble is that the girls dom
really know whether they want {
place or not, but after you get one
you will receive half a dozen ap
plications per day for situation.
l went out the other day il
search of a girl, and at that partic.
ular time would have been willing
to take any one capable of cooking
a beef steak and washing dishes.
AT the first place l stopped
found girl who wanted a place
but her health would not allow hel
to do any washing, ironing, sweep.
ing, or getting up in the morning
before eight o'clock, and she was
willing to hire out at low wages,
say $3.50 week.
Fearing she might want me to
carry her breakfast to her room,
vacated the premises, and sought out
another. / had but little trouble to
find one, and the first question she
asked was what wages l would give,
and l told her three dollars.
"Is there any washing to be
done 2" she asked.
"Oh, no." said I. "My wife will
attend to that matter"
"Do you require any cooking in
your family 2" was the next ques-
ton.
"Well," said /, Gas far as that is
concerned, we never eat anything.
What we want of a girl is to be
about the house, and see that my
wife did the work as it should be
done. She might employ the most
of her time in entertaining COM
pany, playing on the piano, singing,
sitting up evenings with young
man, and playing lady generally"
"Well," said she, "if you viii
make IL four dollars / will come"
mo you won't" said l. "The
truth of the matter is, don't think
you and ] can agree, and you had
better take the first steamboat for
Rogers city,"

Broken Friendship.

Alas They had been friends in youth,
But whispering tongues can poison truth,
And constancy lives in realms above;
And youth is thorny, and life is vain,
And to be wroth with one we love
Doth work like madness in the brain.
Each spoke words of high disdain,
And insult TO his hearts best brother;
But neither ever found another
To case the hollow heart of paining.
They stood aloof, the scars remaining,
Like cliffs that had been rent asunder;
A dreary sea now rolls between;
But neither heat nor hail nor thunder
Shall ever do away, wecn,
The marks of that which once hath been.
