Light Easy Empl .yment Waniel.

Said friend the other day, "Allow me
to introduce to you Mr.. A, who
thinks of remaining with Us and making
this his future home. Ifyou know any
light, easy employment should consider
it a personal favor if you would remem-
Der Mr.. A." Not by dozens or by hun
dreds, but by thousands bright, intelli.
gent young men go wandering up and
down the streets of Western towns after
respectable, (O light, easy employment.
Agencies, clerkships, any thing that is
not solid hard work is wanted. As we
looked at Mr.. AS robust form we were
inclined to tell him that one of the can
didates for Governor of Kansas last year
like him came West to grow up with the
country. He had the spirit and courage
behind him too that wins an honorable
place everywhere. He did not ask for
light, easy employment, but accepted
what he found to do and earned his frs
money digging a cistern and the next
digging cellar. He to-day is in COM
Portable circumstances, IN honored citi-
zen-he dug his way up.
If there is one hallucination more diff.
hcult to get out Of the heads of young
men who affect gold shirt buttons and
good clothes, it is that one of getting
genteel, 81 easy employment, by which
they expect some roa! to success to open
up to them that their fathers were never
able to fiId. Nearly every example of
great success in all the various occupa-
lions of men has come through persistent
hard work. The greatest men American
history has produced have been men who
from boyhood have neither shirked or
feared work. Intelligent, hard work is
about the only. genius We have ever seen
among men who have distinguished
themselves in their professions or trade
There is room in tie West for young
men who have will and energy and are
willing to work and wait for success, but

How TO Cook BEEFsTEAK.-He
took the thin, ng-handled frying-psn
from its nail, and putting it on the stove
heated it quite hot. In this he put the
piece of steak previously pounded, but
to their surprise he did not put parti-
Gle of butter in the frying pan, and did
not salt the steak. He allowed the steak
to merely glaze over and then turned it
quickly to the other side, turning it sew
eral times in this manner until it was
done. Four minutes were not employed
in the operation, but jucier steak was
never eaten. 1t was, when done. laid on
the platter. previously warmed. and was
buttered and sailed and set moment in
a hot oven. Allowing the steak to heat
a moment on each side, helped it to re-
tain all its sweet juices, and putting the
salt on at the last moment after it was
on the platter, drew out its juices.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says: "The
men in New York calling themselves
Democrats, who have exerted their in
huence to beat William Allen and the

enemies of our organization. They have

know the motives of their leaders to hate

Indigestion in Horses and Cattle.

NJ. Petty, veterinary surgeon, draws
attention to the liability of horses and
cattle suffering from indigestion, from
the consumption of forage in humid or
mus.y state. 1t is from overlooking this
complaint is ordinarily produced, or to
the too rapid transaction from dry to
unlimited green food. Another very
common cause is the putting of animals
to work Immediately after their feed.
The giving of chaff and the refuse of the
threshing machine is also another source
as well as excessively cold water; and
above all, allowing the animals to drink
the water of marshes. A little salt or a
handful of meal is excellent in the drinks.
Old animals ought never to be given too
much food at once. and it should be
mixed with little straw. When the
horse shows symptoms of Indigestion
restlessness, suddenly refusing food,
resting on one leg and then on another
the head dropping and seeking the left
flank, its excrements either hard or
liquid, etc,-an excitant, as three ounces
of kitchen salt, or glass of gin in bot
tie of water, will afford relief, or an infu.
sion of camomile or sage. In case pain
exists, two spoonfuls of laudanum will
prove excellent. Of course, soap injec-
tions, friction, and fumigation are not to
be overlooked. Bleeding, in case of
grave indigestion, becomes mortal

Good Cows.

The largest recorded yield of a single
COW that is perfectly we'll authenticated
is that Of an animal kept at the Jail at
Lewes, England.
In eight consecutive years she gave
1920 gallons, or an average of more than
1,2lO gallons a year. She was MIXED
one year 32l days and gave 1,23O gallons,
which made $40 pounds of butter, or at
the rate of a pound of butter from %
pounds of milk.
A Mr.. Scott, of Shaftesbury, w., had a
COW whose milk yielded 5O4 pounds of
butter in 1866, or at the rate of one
pound of butter from 20 pounds of milk.
An Ayrshire COW recently yielded
3O9l pounds OF butter in ten months
after calving, or between March 10th,
1866, and January 10th, 1867, besides
supplying a family with milk and cream.

Human Saliva Kills Snakes.

The Marietta (Ga.) journal was told
by gentleman the other day that human
spittle was as deadly to poisonous snakes
as their bites were deadly to man. He
says while picking up bundle Of straw
and trash under his arm, while cleaning
field, a ground rattlesnake, four feet
long crawled out from it and fell to the
ground at his feet. He at once placed
his heel upon the head of the snake and
spit in its mouth. Shortly afterward the
snake showed symptoms Of inactivity and
sickness, and he picked it up by its tail
and carried it to the house and showed it
to his wife, telling her that he had spit
in its mouth and that it was poisoned.
At the expiration of fifteen minutes the
snake was dead. To further experiment,
he came across a blowing adder (snake, }
which elected from its mouth a yellow
liquid. He caught it and spit in its
mouth, and it died. lie caught another
blowing, and it refused to open its mouth.
He spit upon stick and rubbed the
spittle upon the adder's nose, and it
died. Afterward he came across a black
snake. regarded as not poisonous and he
caught it and spit in its mouth. Instead
of the spittle killing the black snake, as
it did the poisonous reptiles, it only
made it stupidity sick, from which:;t re-
covered. This conclusively shows that
poisonous snakes have as much to fear
from the spittle of man as man has to
fear from their bites.

whistlins As an Indie.tio. Of Character.

An old farmer once said to us that he
would not have hired man on his farm
who did not habitually whistle. He al
ways hired whistlers. Said he never
knew whistling laborer to find fault
with his food, his bed, or complain of
any little extra work he was asked to
perform. Such man was generally kind
to children and to animals in his care
He would whistle a chilled lamb into
warmth and life, and would bring in his
hat full of eggs from the barn without
breaking one of them. He found such a
man more careful about closing gates,
putting up bars and seeing that the nuts
on his pillow were all properly tigh tened
before he took it into his field. He never
knew whistling hired man to kick or
beat COW or drive her on the run into
a stable. He had noticed that the sheep
he fed in the yard and shed gathered
around him as he whistled, without fear.
He never employed whistler who was
not thoughtful and economical. That
this farmers philosophy is generally cor
rect is true. A cheerful, hopeful, buoy
ant man is sure to get through this life
more smoothly and with less friction than
one of those chaps with acute angles and
rasp like sides to their characters. A
cheerful family on farm is far more
likely to be prosperous one than one
that is composed Of glum and growing
individuals, who are tor ever finding
fault and turning even prosperity and
success into a complaint. Men and
women who are employed to assist in
farm labor will work cheaper and more
zealously with family who cultivate a
cheerful spirit, enjoy innocent fun and
wake the echoes all over the farm and In
the house from morning to night, with
jallity and good cheer. The merchant
will sell cheaper and deal more literally
with a keen, wide awake. jolly farmer,
than with long and sour faced grumbler.
This is no trivial matter. 1t enters into
business as an integer, just as sunshine
makes crOps,
