government interference in matters OF quaran-

IRE intended for political effect that it was al
ways beaten. The people Of New York
especially had enough of that through the
expressions upon shipping from Commission
er Duncan.
The government has now an efficient Health
Department, which believes in very impor-
tant thing. DR.. Wood worth. its chief, be-
ieveS that while the New York system is prob
ably the only correct one. and is certainly the
pest. the only Improvement to be made is
sudden and thorough fumieation, and the re-
lease q. vessels as soon as the sick are removed
and TIE vessel and clothing and cargo have
,bsen thoroughly fumgated This has been so
well tested and SO concusively proven that Dr.
Nanderpoel needs no lesson in it, The fact is
shown that to detain vessels beyond the time
needed for thorough fumigation and the
removal of the sick. binders commerce and
sndangers the lives of passengers. The his
tory .: the plague IN Philadelphia in 1870.
where il was brought in by a ship is absolute
proof Of this, and the experience Of every
Southern port is even more conclusive that
OBTAINING vessels makes ventilation and clean
illness more difficult and spreads the disease,
while the straightforward course Of Dr. Van
derpoel has removed the scare, sent vessels
forward quickly, clean and healthy, and as
sisted commerce without danger, and with
aid to the preservation Of the general health

IL seems. when we ride through the
country and sec the acres OF weedy fields
that there Is 10 kind of farm work so In
tie understood as hociug. II would seem
that many farmers noe without thinking
why they do it; that they hoe because
il i the fashion. or becauSe,,they have got
in the habit the same IL they chew or
smoke tobacco. Now We never like to
work well enough to do great deal Of
hard hocing without knowing what we
are about and when We see man spend
DAYS in the field or in the garden, with
his hoe and cultivator, without half aC-
complishing the object he is supposed to
be working for, we think he Is using his
muscle more than his brain. We may
spend two hours in the cultivated field
working hard all the time, without receiv-
ing the value of one good hours work,
simply because we do not begin at the
right time.
DO not. as Il rule, cultivate and hoe Il
field the same day. Let weeds which
the cultivator destroys, have time to wilt
or die before You go in with hand hoe.
If the field is very Wccdy, cultivate it
several before using the hand hoe, al
ways giving at least one days time be-
tween each cultivation. In this way,
there will be but little hand work to be
done, and when done, it will be done
well. With good cultvators of horse
shoes OF several excellent patterns, for
sale at ten dollars apiece, and horse
standing idle in the stable, it is poor
economy, at present prices of labor, for
one to do much work with the hands
which can be done much better with the
horse.

In all the black catalogue Of vices,
which unhappily debase the character OF
the son and daughters Of Adam, tattling
well nigh holds the prc-cminccc 1t is
the mcaneSt. the most detcstable of all
habits. and when once contracted, cling:
as it were, with the tenacity OF demon
In view of lis dcpravity, and of the many
and fearful vices following in its train, the
Lord commanded Moses to speak unto
all the congregations of Israel and say
unto them: Thou shalt not 60 up and
! down, as table bearer among the people,
and in the sacred psalm it is written,
"Who so privily slandcrcth his neighbOr,
HIM will cut off.
The rabid dog, let loose in commune
ty TO bite whatever man or beast he meets,
j. not as dangerous as the tattler. The
dog kills only the individual bitten, while
the tattlers venom poisons madly and
fatally the whole community. He goes
to neighbours, and listening attentively,
hears, perhaps, something said that may
be used to,the disparagcement, possibly,
the ruin of another, which he drinks
down with the svidity with which the
thirsty topper does the merry fluid, and then
goes forth with venomous tongue TO dis
,eminate suspicion, distrust and ranking
hate, where before was the abode ofneigh-
borly love and confding trust.
Thus the peace of society is married,
often disrupted; confidence destroyed;
friends made foes, discord and strife
created, and all the diabolical schemes of
the father of,ies, used to destroy all that
is lively and of good report, furthered
by the tattler who may well be compar
cd 10 the viper in the fable, that, warmed
and brought to life by the care of to
kindhearted benefactor, turned and stung
him to the heart.

Drinking Water.

There is no doubt that most people
drink too much water, especially during
the hot season, and many case OF sick
moss many a death, if the truth weie
known, could be traced to this cause
The following views Of DR.. Hall, on this
matter, are especially seasonabl" now,
when the increasing heat begins to IN
crease the amount OF water drank:
The longer one puts oil drinking water
in the morning, espe, iaily in the summer,
the less he will require through the day
# much i drank during the forenoon the
thirst often increases, and very unpleas'
ant fullues, is observed in addition to II
metallic taste in the mouth. The lc., u
man drink, the better or him, beyond "
modrratcamouut. ThemOrc water man
drinks the more strength he has 10 eXpend

INFO the system must be carried out, and
q. there is but little nourishment in water.
trs coffee. beer aud the like, more
strength j. expanded IN carrying them
ont otNhe system than impaired t"it. The
more Lr drinks the more Ht HHNl P'i-
spire either by the lungs or through the
! skin; the more he perspIres the more car
bon is taken from the system, but this
carbon is necessary for nutrition, hence
the less man is nourished the less
strength he has.
Drinking water largely disimishes the
strength in two ways, and yet many are
under the impression that the more water
swallowed the more thoroughly is the sys-
TEN "wushed out" Thus the less we
drink ut meals the better for Us. If the
amount were limited To- single cup of
hot tea or hot milk and water at each
meal, an immcasurabie good would result
to us all. Many persons have fallen into
the habit of drinking several glasses OF
cold water, or several cups ofhot tea or
coffee at meals. All such will be greatly
benefited by breaking it up at once. 1t
may be very well to drink little at each
| meal, and, perhaps, it will be found that
( in all casses it il much better to take II
( single cup of hot tea at each meal than II
/ glass of cold water, however pure.

A New IheOrY.

Two very little folks from very large
city, ON visit to their grandma's in the
suburbs, were always very anxious to
visit the henery to hunt eggs. On one
occasion recently, eggs were scarce, and
a hen being on the nest, they decided TO
wait until Mrs. II. had performed her
duty. Children the world over, are pro-
verbal for asking strange and hard Ques-
lions-Sometimes unan>wcruble ones. In
this instaSce, however, i was an easy
one, and the answer rs easily given.
We will call the little brother
and sister, for such they were
Annie and Willie, Tor convenience.
While the pair patiently waited for the
ben to lay the egg, Annie thoughtfully
enquired OF Willie: "How do the hers

The Grasshopper Crop

From the New York Herald.
In Minnesota they are paying oncdol,
! lar and sixty cents n bushel for grasshop-
pers-- after they are caught and Killed
of course. Little boys and girls get ten
cents quart two boys make six
dollars day on grasshoppeIs and Blue
Earth county has paid already over hf-
teen thousand dollars for the extermins-
ton of this plague. An ingenious Min
nesotian has contrived trap, run by
horse power, which. catches from five to
twenty bushels day. and the catchers
bring them to town in wagons, wheel
barrows, and even in bags on their backs.
When paid for they are buried in deep
trenches. and it is said by next week
Minnesota will be rid of grasshoppers
1t is proposed that, inasmuch rs the e1-
termination of the insect interests the
whole State and not only the localities
where they make their first appearance,
the State shall assume the cost Of their
destruction and this seems but just.
Will not some ingenious Yankee now
discover use for the grasshopper!
Could he not be used for manure? Has
he no oil, good for rheumatism, or watch
springs, or machinery? Will not some
one undertake to prepare desiccated
grasshoppers for the use of the Digger
Indians in California? If he cOu get
contract from the Indian Bureau there
might be millions in it. The utilization
of waste products is nowadays oneofthe
more notable sources Of wealth. and any
one who should be so fortunate as to IN
vent use for the grasshopper would
make so large and rapid fortune that
he might hope to tempt others into dis
covering how to make protitssout of the
Colorado beetle.
