in the Cincinnati Gazette, as ex-
tracted from work by Lady
Baker, the London philanthropist.

I'll tell you what he should be like
He should love cold water and hate
a lie. He should be frank and
unsuspicious, as becomes a noble,
trusting nature, and yet he should
be neither silly nor soft. He
should have plenty of manners.
He should have an appetite like a
wolf, for I should wish him to be
tall and strong; but he must not
be bit greedy. He should not
be ashamed of loving and reverence
ing all that is good and holy and
pure. but with nothing of the mol

have fine, sweet temper, yet he
should be, as the Yankee song says,
An okered man in row. and he
should know how to take care Of
himself with his fists"
A blacksmith who fancied him
self sick would often tease neigh
boring physician to give him relief.
The physician knew that he was
perfectly well; but being unwilling
to offend him, told him he must be
careful of his diet and not eat any
thing heavy or windy. The black
smith went off satisfied; but in
revolving in his own mind what
kind of food was heavy or windy,
returned to the doctor, who having
lost temper with his patient, said,
Don't you know what things are

blacksmith. "Why. then, I'll tell

BALKY HoRsES-I once heard of an
unfortunate gentleman who had become
insane, but was restored to sound health
simply by causing the mind to make a
sudden revulsion which was done by
skillfully causing him to become jealous
of his wife who was most excellent
lady and aware of the process.
On this hint we might learn to man
age balky horse. He is insane on the
subject of going, that is self evident
II we can manage to make him think
on some other subject, he will naturally
forget about going and go before be
knows it. The following devices have
been successfully tried to accomplish
the desired end:
LIST. Tying string around the horses
ear close to the head
I'd. Htching the horse to the swingle
tree by means of cord instead of the
tugs; the cord fastened to the horses
tail
3rd. Filling the mouth full of some
disagreeable substance
4th. Tying a stout Irvine around the
leg just below the knee and then remov.
ing it when he has travelled some dis.
lance
Never whip a balky horse, for the
more he is whipped the crazier he will
become. Let every thing be done gen.
tly, for boisterous words only confuse
him and make him worse. Treat him
in the mild manner that you would a
crazy man, and you will succeed.

RED PEPPER AND PoULTRY-A lady
correspondent of the " Poultry Bulletin"
says: do not know if other persons
who raise poultry and pet birds are as
much dependent as am on red pepper :;
but | have found so much benefit from
its use in my poultry yards and bird
cages, that it may not be amiss to call
the attention of others to it's good pro-
perties. l do not speak of the article
that is sold in the drug stores (and some
times remarkably fresh). but of the cap
sicum that grows in our gardens. /
have tried all the different varieties, and
most pungent and efficacious is the
small kind usually known as the birds
pepper The plant in itself is beau
tiful object; it grows about two feet
high, and in autumn its bright little
scarlet berries look like coral beads
peeping from under the dark, green
foliage. Indeed, one plant in pot
forms a pretty ornament for flower
stand. The seed possesses very
stimulating and reviving property, and
| find that two or three given to newly
hatched chickens, especially if they are
weakly, have most happy effect. fla
hen looks feeble after moulting, six of
those berries or pods, given daily in some
corn meal and sweet milk, improves
her wonderfully"

DOMESTIC RECIPES.

To PREVENT Doors FROM CREAK-
ING.-Apply little soap to the hinges;
or, take lard, soap and black lead, equal
parts, and apply.
To RESTORE THE HUE TO LINEN
Linen garments which have become vel
low from time, may be whitened by
being boiled in lather made of milk
and pure white soap, a pound of the
latter to a gallon of the former. After
the boiling process, the linen should be
twice rinsed, little blue being added
to the last water used.
SANDwICHEs-Boil few pounds of
ham, and chop it very fine while it is
still warm-fat and lean together-rub
dry mustard in proportions to suit your
taste through the mass: add as much
sweet butter as would go to the spread
ing your sandwiches, and when it is
thoroughly mixed, split light biscuits in
halves and spread the ham between.
These can be eaten without trouble, and
will be found excellent.
To KEEP HAMs-There is no better
way to keep hams through the Summer,
free from faint or insects, than by hang
ing them up in the smoke-house, which
is, of course, to be kept perfectly dark.
When there is no smoke-house or dark
room, sew each ham up in a canvas
bag and thoroughly whitewash it. We
have also kept them perfectly by rub
bling into them wood ashes, packing
them in barrels and covering them with
ashes.
OATMEAL PANcAKEs.-Stir into four
cupfuls of cold water teaspoonful of
salt, large handful of Graham -four
and oatmeal, till you have thin bat
ter Bake at once on q very hot grid
die. We think the Graham -four i'm
proves the pancakes, as they are more
easily turned and not quite so dry as
when oatmeal only is used. When
preferred, one cup of water can be left
out, using instead of it cupful of but
termilk and teaspoonful of soda
FLANNEL CAKE.-Mix three table
spoonfuls of flour with one pint of
cream; add two eggs, and beat the
whole well till quite smooth; then add
slowly half pint of new milk, into
which has been put a teaspoonful of
baking powder. Beat all well together,
and fry with lard, little of which should
be made hot for each cake. Eat with
powdered sugar, mixed with cinnamon
or grated nutmeg.

EaESHm1.esVHIE} HAIR
~ lRENEwER.

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation ;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAZE to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
sThe constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality /;
and consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

in the sunshine and midnight cold was
extreme, and in the vicinity of ithaca
contributed to wide prevalence of diar
rhea and dysentery among the human
population. These chills had doubtless
a material effect, but to attribute the
outbreak mainly to these vicisstudes
would be untenable, for from the 23rd
10 the oath of September the night tenn
perature touched the freezing point with
out any bad result
The most universally acknowledged
causes of the malady in animals are:
Plethora or state of the blood highly
charged with organic elements; an i'm
pervious soil or subsoil; very rich
surface soil; foundations; period of
heat and dryness calculated to foster
the decomposition of organic matters to
a great depth in the ground, and
great contrast between the day and
night temperatures, and in this case all
conceded to produce one of the most
malignant types of the disease 1t may
be added, that while this affection is
communicable to all animals by inocu-
lation, it can scarcely be said to spread
in any other way, and is therefore to
be looked upon as essentially an cpl
zootic disease We must 60 to such
places as the inundated margins and
deltas of large rivers, dried up lakes
and marshes, or the rich and pestilen-
tial Russian steppes to find any approx
imation to the disastrous outbreaks in
man and beast which blacken the his
tory of past ages.
1t only remains to he noted what was
done to check the disorder One hun
dred of the best steers were turned on
higher pasture with a gravelly sub
soil. The remainder were of necessity
left in the higher of the two meadows
formerly occupied, but were fenced out
from the swamp and lower meadow
where the clay approached nearer to
the surface. All of both herds were fed
with hay and watered with solution
of carbolic acid and bichromate of po-
tassa The fifty sick bullocks too small
doses of nitro-muriatic acid and bichro-
mate of potassa by the mouth, and a
solution of sulphate of quinia, iodide of
potassium, and bisulphite of soda hypo-
dermieally, each repeated twice daily.
The result was that of the fifty ami
mails seriously i'll on the l4th, only two
died, and the rest made prompt and
perfect recovery. Only two new cases
occurred on the 18th. and these were
the last.

Held before itif only properly managed,
but il allowed TO pass into the hands OF
political managers, as are too many such
movements, it will be worse than fail
nre.. The great drawback in almost
every wsrkingmen's convention has been
that fanatical leaders and political trick
sters have together managed and entirely
ruled the movements and turned the en-
Tire results to the good Of party or politi.
cal plans. Already some doubts as to

been expressed by Mr.. J. Welsh, prom

wilt be needfui in order to preserve con-

make the convention secret, and to only
publish the results Of its labors In the
form Of an appeal TO the laboring class
or constitution for their signatures.
This is probably an unwise movement
and will give an opportunity for manipu-
