WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE PooR.-Sil.
yer spoons are used to scrape kettles.
Coffee, tea, pepper, and spices are left to
stand open and loose their strength.
Potatoes in the cellar grow, and the
sprouts are not removed until the pota.
toes become worthless. Brooms are new.
er hung up and are soon spoiled. Nice
handled knives are thrown into hot wa.
ter. The flour is sifted in a wasteful
manner, and the bread pan is left with
the dough sticking to it. Clothes are
left on the line to whip to pieces in the
wind. Tubs and barrels are left in the
sun to dry and fall apart. Dried fruits
are not taken care of in season, and be-
come wormy. Rags, strings, and paper
are thrown into the fire. Pork spoils
for want of salt, and beef because the
brine wants scaldlng. Bits of meat,
vegetables, bread and cold pudding are
thrown away, when they might be
warmed, steamed and served as good as
new.-Cottage Hearth.

and common sense, and, above all, sym
pathy, will partly be your guide, but
experience must decide. Let some per-
son we'll versed in the divine art sit at
the piano, and let the tired one lie on
a couch and prescribe for herself or for
himself. This will happen: 'Do not
play that Tannhauser overture just now,
it wears me out, cannot bear it" or,
"Yes-sing that 'Du Dist die ruh,' and
after that I must hear Mendelssohn's
fNotturno, out of the midsummer
Nights Dream ;" and then-and then
what must come next must be left to
the tact and quick sympathy of the mu-
stefan. l have known cases where an
hour of this treatment did more good
than bottlefuls of bark or pailfuls of
globules; but do not wish to overstate
the case. 1 merely plead for an unrec-
ognized truth, and l point to new vo-
cation-the musical healer. How many
a girl might turn her at present uncared-
for and generally useless musical abili-
ties to this gentle and tender human use!

A Lesson From Cabbagcs.

Every one knows that cabbage will
not grow fast or head out we'll unless
they are hoed very often. Most have
also learned that this crop does the best
if hoed very early in the morning, while
the dew is on the ground. Eoeing later
in the day, when the dew has evaporated
will not have the same effect. The rea-
sons appear to be these: The dew being
covered with soil, is retained, and helps
To keep the earth moist. 1t contains a
large amount of oxygen, which is taken
from the air. These act to decompose
the soil, and to hasten the growth of
plants. 1t also absorbs large quantity
of ammonia, which is directly taken up
by the plants. Now the same causes
ought to produce the same effects on 9th
er plants, and it has been found by OBJ
serving farmers that they do. Market
gardeners prefer to have potatoes hoed
either when the soil is wet with dew or
after slight rain.
Observations made by one of the best
farmers in Wisconsin, extending through
many years, convinced him that there
was great advantage in blowing land
while it was wet with dew. Especially
was this the case when clover and grass
was plowed under. 1t was found that
the grass and sod rotted much sooner,
and that the succeeding crops we're larg-
er and Of better quality.-Mieago Times.

To DESTROY NUIsANCE.-H a per-
son troubled with flies can obtain fly
paper they can be killed in quantities.
1t is brown paper, soaked in solution
of arsenic. 1t should be placed in shall.
low dishes just covered with water. But
if not to be procured, let him procure a
little arsenic, dissolve it in molasses and
water, and set it in every room. Cobalt
dissolved in water, will also destroy
them. If these remedies cannot be pro-
cured, try simpler one. Fill half a
dozen bowls or tumblers a little more
than two thirds full with strong soap
suds; fit paper tightly over the mouth,
bending it down all around the sides,
and tie it with string. Cut hote one
inch in diameter in the middle of the
paper, and smear the whole under surface
of it with thick molasses, leaving little
trace on the outside to draw the flies.
Every hour or so rap on the ontside of
the paper, and it will throw the flies
into the suds.

How to Drive.

EDITOR RURAL WORLD: Under the
above head l see you quote Rev. w. H.
Murray. The article is good, and ] can
say that have taken q horse that was
FESTIVE, in fact, almost ungovernable-
caused as think from rough handling
have gone around him gently for an
hour or SO, then harnessed him myself,
and in an hours time have driven the
horse within a circle of fifty feet in d.
ameter, and my wheel struck half dol
lar piece each time of the round. The
voice of kindness is as soon understood
from man by the horse, as by the child
from its father l have horse now in
my hands, that at over fourteen years Of
age had never been in the shafts, and
when l bought him, l was told by a
driver who drove him day or two, and
who had two men to hold him ere he
could get into the buggy, that he was
too old colt ever to break. l dis
charged the man, gave stable attention
and care to the horse myself, and in five
days l drove the horse-and am now
doing so-as quietly as if 1 had used him
from his youth. E.

The Invention of the Wheelbarr0w.

Says a writer in Scri6ner for July: 1t
takes great man to do a little thing,
sometimes.
Who do you think invented that sim
pie thing called wheelbarrow? Why,
no less a man than Leonardo da Vinci.
And who was he?
He was a musician, poet, painter,
architect, sculptor, psychologist, engineer,
natural historian, botanist and inventor
all in one. He wasn't a "Jack at all
trades and Master of none," either. He
was real master of many arts, and q
practical WORKER besides.
When did he live?
Somewhere about the time that Co.
lumbus discovered America.
And where was lie born?
In the beautiful city of Florence,
Italy.
Perhaps some of you may feel little
better acquainted with him when l tell
you it was Leonardo da Vinci who paint
ed one of the greatest pictures in the
Last Supper" picture
which has been copied many times, and
in several styles. SO that almost
every one has an idea of the arrangement
and position at the table of the figures of
our Lord and his disciples, though l am
told that without seeing the painting
itself, no one can form notion of how
grand and beautiful it is.
And only think of the thousands of
poor, hard-working Americans who really
OWN, in their wheelbarrow, an original
work of Leonardo da Vinci.

The Philippine Islands have been crack
ed and rent with earthquakes, and hun
dreds of lives have been lost. Asis
Minor has been ravaged. Several vii
lagos have been destroyed and over q
thousand victims were buried. New
Granada has suffered the most terrible
fatality, over Is, 900 persons having per,
ished. Even Iceland, that far-away land
of cold and frost has been devastated in
the most terrible manner. Even before
Christmas the people heard the subter-
ranean rumblings. In January long
silent volcano hurled its hot lava and
ashes over villages for twenty miles
around. This was kept up for month,
and then another supposed extinct era
ter, 100 miles away, broke ont and de-
vastated the country for fifty miles
around it. In March .he whole central
part of the island was in state of up
heaval. Mounds hundreds of feet high
were thrown up, and Immediately be-
came raging volcanoes, and for a radius
of 200 miles the country was ruined, and
10000 people were homeless and fleeing
for their lives. Even the geysers ceased
their spouting of water, and have ever
since emitted only streams of fire and
columns of smoke.
Thus all over the world, snow and ice,
freezing cold, water-spouts and snow
slides, ice-gorges, tornadoes, hail-storms,
deluges of rain, freshets, earth
quakes, and volcanoes have been at
work almost interInittingly since the
work began. destroying human life and

with the grasshoppers, the potato-bugs

Covered Observation-Disclosures
heaps are always better for being covered
from the weather. Covering prevents
evaporation. Sufficient moisture pre-
vents burning (fire-fang). 1t is always
best to have manure-heaps so placed
that in a dry time water may be
pumped over the heap every day or two.
Used in this way manure ferments rap
idly and loses nothing, but gains in quail
ity all the time. If you place tank or
sink an oil cask SO that the heap will be
nearly over it, this liquid may be pump

HAY MITEs.-SOme time ago large
number of horses died in Nordheim,
Germany, from the imitation of the in
testines, the true cause at first not being
known. At last it was assigned to the
hay, in which, upon close examination,
an immense number of microscopic ami
mails we're found. They belonged to the
genus acarus fenarious, to which genus
the mites living on dry fruit and in
cheese also belong. In times of horse
disease it might therefore, be proper to
microscopically examine hay and straw
since even the best fodder, if stored in a
damp place, is very likely to be infested
by those and other parasites.
