SALE OF CANNED FRUIr.-Mr. Jos. Guest, OF
Church Hill, who has put up about $4,000 cans
of fruit this season, neg oiated sale last week
with Mfessrs. j. d. Cobb Il Sons, OF Boston, for
$500 cases, each containing two dozen cans, at
81 per case. This includes all his canned goods
except about 5000 cans OF pie fruit for which
he has been offered II, 35 per dozen but which
he holds at .l40.
Messrs. Valiant & Faithful, of the same town,
who have put up about 100 900 cans, have sold
theirs to Messrs rhomas J. Myers 4 o., of
Baltimore, at 81 81 per dozen, or 1914 per
case. This Is without labels, which are said to
cost about six cents per dozen, aud would have
ran the cost up to 49, So per case. These sales
are both believed to be remunerative. and will
doubtless be the means of enlarging canning
operations next year, provided there is any fruit.

INCH BY INcH.-Observations regardin

INCH BY INcH.-Observatio regarding
the growth of man have determined the fol-
lowing interesting facts. "The most rapid
growth takes place Immediately after birth,
the growth ofan infant during the first
year of its existence being about eight
inches. This ratio or increase gradually de-
creases until the age three years is reach
ed, at which time the size attained is half
that which, it is to become when full grown.
After five years the succeeding increase is
very regular till the sixteenth year, being
at the rate, for the average man, of two
inches year. Beyond sixteen the growth
is feeble, being for the following two years
about six tenths of an inch year; while
from eighteen to twenty the increase in
height is seldom over one inch. At the
age of twenty-five the growth ceases, save
in few exceptional cases.

CLIMBING TREEs.-If you want to climb
tree, do as the South American young
ladies do; make hoop with any twig or
rope round tree, and get inside, jerk it
up the trunk with your hands, a little at
the time, drawing your legs up after it.
The Tahitian boys tie their feet together,
four or five inches apart, with a piece of
palm bark, ahd with the aid of this fetter,
go up the cocoa-palms to gather nuts. The
native young ladies in Australia climb the
gum trees after opossums where the bark
is rough they chop holes with Ratchet,
then one throws about the tree rope twice
as long as will go round it, puts her
Ratchet on her head, and placing her feet
against the tree and grasping the rope
with her hands, she bitches it up by jerks,
and jerks herself up the enormous trunk
almost as fast as man will climb q lad

RESIGNATION.
Let nothing make thee sad or fretful,
Or too regretful;
Be still
What God hath ordered must be right,
Then find in 1t thine own delight,
My will.
Why shouldst thou fill to-day with sorrow,
About tomorrow,
My heart
One watches all with care most true,
Doubt not that He will give thee, too,
Thy part.
Only be steadfast, never waver,
Nor seek earth's favor,
But rest;
Thou knowest what God wills must DO
For all his creatures, so for thee,
The best.
