Not MY Place.

A dispute having long subsisted In d
gentleman family between the maid and
the coachman about fetching the cream
for breakfast, the gentleman one morning
called them both before him that he might
hear what they had 10 say, and decide nc
eordingly. The maid pleaded that ,ht
coachman was lounging about the kitchen
The greater part of the morning, and vel
WIS SO ill.natured that he would not fetch
the cream for her, Notwithstanding he
saw she had SO much 10 do as not to have
n moment TO spare. The coachman al.
legged that il was not his business.
Very well, said the master; ''bui
pray what do you call your business 7"
ITO take care of the horses and clean
and drive the coach, " replied he.
" You say right" answered the master.
and do not expect you to do more than
hired you for; but this insist on: that
every morning before breakfast YOU get
the coach ready and drive the maid 10 the
farmers for milk and | hope you will
allow that 10 be part of your business"
The coachman and the maid soon after
came to terms.--0aee Week.

II Is stated that the transactions of the
British Royal Society, extending over 200
years, contain no instance of any sudden
change In the color of the human hair-a
circumstance regarded as conclusive that
no such change has ever occurred, for had
1t ever been undoubtedly Witnessed 1t Is
not likely that il would have remained un.
described The most eminent medical
writers confess themselves unaware that,
irrespectively of recorded evidence, any
thing in support of the popular notion on
this subject can be addnced on physiology
cal grounds. 1t IL well known that human
hair cannot be injected. Using coloring
fluid, such rs solution of nitrate Of
silver and Il solution Of iodine, does not
produce any change OF color except in the
portions actually immersed. Whether il
owes its color 10 a fixed oil, to peculiar
arrangement of It's constitutional molecu-
les, or to both, il rt'sists decay ina remark

posture 10 the sun will bleach hair, but tits
will not account for any very sudden
change of color. The popular notion,
however, Is in favor of the affirmative of
this question, and some naturaiists and
Psychologists adduce what they regard as
credible instances of hair changing TO
white or gray in the case Of persons under
strong emotions Of grief or terror.

The Press says that one Of the
few who have become conspicuous
in the cranberry business is Abb n
X Gle, e O., of Alfred. lie be-
gan about four years since. he
owned bog Of twelve acres, which
by the construction Of drains d
dy kes he is enabled TO flow at will,
and in such way as he likes. Of
The twelve acres he has ten set out
to cranberry plants. The three
first years he was to considerable
expense in perlecting his lands and
the ingenious means for cultivation
and harvesting. Mr.. Giles does
not spend time in picking by hard
a tedious businessl, but he flows
the bog and while it is flowed the
berries are detached from the Vines
by rakes and foated to house at
the foot of the bog, where they are
taken in screens, and there gather
ed, but by an ingenious contriyance
OF Nlr. dlles, The fruit is sorted by
the screens and water, the best
going into one apartment, and the
light, pinched or unsound into
others. Mr.. Giles must have ex-
pended nearly $4,000 in bringing
his lands to Their present condition
of bearing, and other facilities for
growing and securing the crop.
1 his year he harvested GOO bush
els at an expenditure Of forty-six
deys' labor. He sod, quite early
in the season, 100 barrels at SlO
per barrel. I he balance of the
crop he will sell at S4 to 4.50 per
bushel. 1t will be seen that Mr..
Giles has a small fortune in the
business-the Result of study, pa
tience and brains.
