The HERALD office was yesterday
favored with visit from Mr.. P. D.
WIaaINGToN, Democratic nominee
for Congress from this District. Mr..
WIGGINeToN is making flying visit
to this part of his district, but he as
sures us that during the campaign he
will spend ten days or two weeks
among the people of Los Angeles, San
Bernardino and San Diego counties.
He is a capable and eloquent gentle
man, and wherever he goes will make
hosts of friends. We are confident
that he needs but to know the wants
of Southern California to use every
means in his power as Congressman
to meet them.

Eastern Wool Markes

Boston, July 11th.--In the trans
actions in California wools here, there
is considerable falling off from last
week, but a fair business has been
done, although holders are compelled
to concede little to effect sales. Fall
California sold at 2Oc. There is in fact,
no firmness for any kind of wool.
Buyers have things pretty much their
own way. The demand for pulled
wool is quite limited. Sales of the
week have been 10000 pounds at 400
so for good supers, with an occasional
small lot of good Eastern and Maine
super at advance of the latter rate.

HOW 1 LOST NY HEART.

To tell you just how lost it,
Oh! that were difficult task;
How the thing got away on that autumn day
never stopped to ask.
Perhaps twas q glance that did it,
A soft caress to my hair,
A close, warm grasp, or q gentle clasp,
That captared II then and there.
You see, there are things you can govern,
But hearts have way Of their own;
Like birds they fly, and you can't tell why
You only miss them when gone.
And why don't tell the story,
II the reason you really must learn,
Is, though life grew bright with rosy light
Yet won no heart in return.
Somebody's eyes were gentle and kind,
And his voice was soft and low;
But the heart wanted was given away
Ever so long ago.
And SO, while solace lonely life
With cat and cup Of tea,
Somebody's arm is round his wife,
And her baby is on his knee.
And the loss met with results in this,
That mine Is lonely part:
You can't for your life make loving wife
OF woman without heart
Another head rests on the manly breast
That ] wanted to shelter me;
Some other fair face has won my place,
So no mans wife I'll be.
But compensation's law of life,
And though trials the gods will send,
I've no one TO scold when his beefsteak's cold,
And no small stockings to mend
SO the love that is lost never regret,
When think what troubles might be:
When dinner is late smile at Fate,
And nobody storms at me-

Spring Work.

As SOON as the frost has left the
ground and the soil has become settled
unless this work has been done in the
fall--ihe ground should be raked clear

nure and blowing or digging the beds.
Wherever the soil is sandy the earth be-
comes firm before the frost Is OUT but
ON all loans and other fat land the soil
Always remains soft until the frost Is en-
tirely gone. Wait, therefore, until the
earth is firm under the feet before you
commence, and then make all ready for
work.
One serious mistake with those who
have not intimately studied the nature
of soils Is, that, In their eagerness to
have their crops early, they pillow or dig
while yet the ground is too wet. This
should never be done until the sol. Is

Keep Ahead Of Work.

! THE rigid winter has so far overstepped
its natural bounds that the slush and
| mud of early spring time will scarcely
have to be endured this season, for the
Frost King will probably yield his scep-
ter at once to the Flower Queen. sum
mer almost begins when winter leaves
of. 1t therefore behooves farmers not
to sit idly waiting for the new opening;
but to be up and doing so that they may
keep ahead of the work that may rush
upon them.
One OF the important duties lies In secur-
ing and having ready good supply Of the
very best varieties of seeds for the cereal
and vegetable crops. 1t is too apt to be
the case that this matter is neglected,
even after good resolutions have been
made, and when seed-time comes the
hurry of work compels the using of such
varieties as are on the premises and
which have been grown there for sue
cessive years and deteriorated greatly,
as all vegetables and grains will under
such management; therefore there are
thousands of acres titled thoroughly
every year that produce but half what
would be yielded were better class of
seeds planted
Another important matter to attend to
is the fitting up Of the farm implements
and machinery. To stop the team day
to have pillow or harrow repaired after
these implements are brought out for
use Is a damage to any farmer amounts
ing to ten If not hundred times the
amount required to put them in good
condition before the cropping season
opens. And so this rule may apply to
all the seasons through; wagons, hay
racks, moving machines, etc.
Farm fences should be looked to now
built up and repaired so as TO make
them secure protection to the summer
crops. Here good resolutions are often
broken again. to the greatest disadvan-
tage of the husbandman. The fences
that surround the titled field are known
to be insecure, and it is determined to
fix them up before the crops become
tempting to the domestic animals bu
being behindhand little all through
the season they are neglected until the
farmer is awakened out OF his lethargy
by finding his crops destroyed and his
stock injured.
The farmer who keeps ahead Of his
work can always take advantage OF
whatever circumstances he may be
placed in; he can use less muscular and
more brain force than his neighbor
who is always working at a disadvan-
tage by following instead Of leading.
Wherever is found snug, cosy, rural
home with everything indicating wealth
and prosperity will also be found man
ager who never allows his work TO get
the advantage of him. and wherever the
opposite of this Is found there is never
mistake made in asserting that there

in the performance Of his agricultural
labors.
The lesson is written plainly all over
the face of the country, and In the ex-
perience ofevery husbandman, but is not
fully appreciated, and we cali attention
to IL earnestly at this time because the
popularity of the season makes 1t OF
double importance just now.-Indtana

An Authenticated Ghost Story.

A GENTLEMAN had occasion to visit q
certain city Of New England. He ar
rived at night, went directly to his ac-
customed hotel, and TO bed, slept sound
ly through the night, and In the morning
discovered his watch had stopped during
the night. When he opened the door OF
his room another gentleman was taking
in his boots on the opposite side OF the
corridor; and of him our friend asked II
he could tell him what time 1t was. To
his surprise, the gentleman took no
notice whatever Of the question. He
asked again "Sir. will you be good
enough 10 tell me what time II isg My
watch has stopped" No answer. The
gentleman, without looking up, shut his
door and disappeared. At the moment
two other gentlemen came walking to-
gether down the corridor; and Mr.. \
asked of them the same question. The
two gentlemen, without looking to tho
right or left, continued their walk with
out an answer or sign. "Well,n thought
Mr. X, "this is very curious" However,
he went back into his room. Presently
the bell rang for breakfast; and immedi-
ately waiter entered the room, seized
him by the arm and began series OF
gesticulations. Mr.. X lost his temper,
and burst forth with: "What in thunder
is the matterY" When the waiter cried
'Oh" and vanished, laughing. MIR. x

wrong, but went down 60 breakfast.
When he entered the saIs manner,
which commonly had dozen or twenty
people at the tables, he found the hall
filed with gentlemen in black coats, all
feeding grayely, and in perfect silence.
A waiter silently beckoned him TO q
place; and, when he was seated, he said
to his neighbor: "Sir, will you be kind
enough TO tell me what this 10 all abouty"
No answer. The person, like Charlotte
ia " Werter," /" went on eating bread and
butter" Our friend too began to feel
decidedly what the English call queer,
and, getting out of his seat. went TO the
nearest waiter, and piteously besought
him for Heavens sake 10 tell him what
was the matter with this house. "Ohv'
