RUNAwAY.-On Monday afternoon last,
Il team belonging to John Rchkemmer, a
resident of Fairbank, took fright while
Mr.. r. was in WcngcIt's brewery lighting
Il cigar, and ran down Walnut street like
Il train of cars under full head of steam,
turning the corner at the First National
Bank. thence down Main street to Chat
ham, where they swung around with Il
jerk that sent the seat and wagon BOX
buzzing toward the bridge. At this point
the reach broke and left the hind wheels
kccicd up against the sidewalk, while the
front wheels followed the horses They
ran but a short distance, however, after
breaking the reach, as two able bodied
gentlemen, after firmly grasping the bri-
die rcins, prevailed upon them to stop.
The horses were uninjured and no damage
done to the wagon but Il broken reach.

Stout English Girls.

A correspondent of the Hartford Times
writing from Swiss inn, says: "a few
days ago just at dusk, after ocold rain
had set in, two English girls and their
handsome, gray-haired father arrived.
They were cold and damp, and the hotel
was cold and damp, and as we sat by our
blazing fire and heard them 90 into their
cold rooms we pitied them SO much that
we opened our door and invited them to
share our warmth and comfort-so they
came in and we chatted together all the
evening Those two bright, fresh.look
ing girls sat calmly in their chairs and
told US they had crossed from Meiringen
to the Rhone Glacier oyer the Grimsel
on foot the day before 1through foot
snow-had walked nine miles down the
valley that morning, and then had
climbed up all the way from Viesch to
the hotel on foot in the rain that after
noon. We looked at them aghast and
murmured Tired p % no. they
briskly chorused: and indeed they did
look most revoltingly fresh and pretty.
When we appeared in the morning,
father twho always comes in to breakfast
from out of doors with blast of cold air
very much as If he had slept on the near
est glacier) announced that those En-
glish girls started to walk up to the sum-
NIT of the Eggischhorn two hours ago
and are coming back in time to cross the
Aletach Glacier to go to the Belle Alp for
the night 7 Before long they came in,
brisk and rosy as usual: 'Oh, no! not
tired at all land without waiting for
anything more than a lunch were of
again. We groaned in spirit as we saw
them disappear around promontory."

Bulbs for the Window.

An experienced hortIculturist writes in
the New York Tribune as follows: Il
have bulbs in bloom all winter long.
Not the same plants, of course; but by
keeping up a succession and replacing
those whose duty has ended j have q
continuous exhibition, that ends only
with the advent of snowdrops in early
spring. adopt as rule in life never TO
purchase the cheap auction bulbs. They
NAV be good or they may not, with odds
very greatly in faver of the latter. For
hyacinths, tulips and narcissus choose
six-inch pots. Place some broken pieces
of charcoal or pebbles in the bottom for
drainage, cover these with little moss,
and fiji In with rich, rotted compost and
sand. do not like to cover the bulb too
deeply-in fact, the neck should just
show itself at the surface of the soil.
Sink the pots in the ground until freez-
ing weather sets in; then remove them To
the cellar, where IL will be sufficiently
cool to prevent them from starting
prematurely. A few of these at time
NAV be placed in a warm, sunny win
dow: and as soon as the tiower-buds
commence TO expand place them on
rustic stand in the bay window OF your
sitting.room. To keep up the success
sion. when one is removed from the fore.
ing window replace it from the stock OF
dormant plants in the cellar. This is o
leaf from the book of my own expert
ence, and friends wonder why my stand
is always covered with bloom"

Seed-COrn.

Most farmers saved at the suitable
time their seed-corn. But is it safe this
winter? Farmers should look to this
question and should also know why and
what care it needs. The analysis of
corn shows that it contains, when dry
enough to grind, about Is per cent. of
water. This is its salient point. So
large per cent of water renders it liza
BILE to the destruction of its vitality by
freezing or to fermentation by heat
generated spontaneously. The hard,
glossy covering of a grain of corn con-
stitutes good protection to the grain
while it is on the cob, SO it is safe to con-
clude this is the best way to keep corn.
The damp breath and noxious gases
arising from cow or horse stables is ex
ceedingly injurious to the vitality of
corn, and it should never be put over
stables occupied by any kind of animals.
The great secret in the preservation of
seed corn Is in having it dry on the APP
proach of cold weather and keep it dry,
with plenty of free air. In a granary
where the wheat, rye or oats go through
a sweat or any dampness arising from
the bins is almost fatal to seed-corn. A
corn crib, where it can have plenty of
room, free circulation of air, and
protected from any damp, is good
place for it, In the garnet of a
dwelling house with tight roof protect
ing from rain or drifting shows, with q
dry and warm current of air passing up
through the building, is the best place
the common farmer can use. But see
that snow does not sift through on it,,
thaw and then freeze. Serious failures
in crops sometimes occur from bad seed
planted too late for second planting.
Distress and ruin will come upon man
for slight neglects in the care of seed.
Some may have not furnished them
selves seed. Now is the time to provide
against such neglect. There is time now
and it may be more easily obtained than
in the hurry of planting crops. Look
also at the kind of seed. In nearly all
communities there are varieties OF corn
that differ In yield from ten to fifteen
bushels per acre, and yet equally as early
The corn that has been grown on the
same place until it produces nothing but
nubbins had better be fed to hogs and a
better article purchased, even if it has to
be sought at some distance.--Iopa State

yield about 1000 pounds of food One
pound OF sage suffices to make three
loaves, and five of these loaves make a
full days allowance for Woodworking
man. In other words, 800 loaves--very
small in size, of course-will answer for
q years rations-all the product of tree
yielding not more than 600 pounds.
The labor required to produce this
amount is very moderate. Two men will
finish tree in five days, and in five days
more two men will have baked the sage

enough food to last through the whole
