THERE is routine work to life,
and every man goes through it, but
not all in the same way TO some
it is a drudgery, to some pain, to
some art, to some pleasure, but to all
life. If man will not work neither
shall he eat, and III sngosf men do is
necessarily routin name want,
the same demand; r duties,
meet us every Ky. IT, arise
endless details and questions of ways
and means but the one thing, life,
by duty and by work, is before us
But what wisdom, what grace, we
require to meet and fulfil it ! How
often we are vexed and troubled by
it. We are like mariners in an
archipelago; the channel is border
ed on either side by rocks, and he is
skillful pilot who steers safely
through them. There is one thing,
however, that better than all things
helps q man-it is cheerfulness, -
The sun rises every morning IN the
heavens, and although misis and
clouds sometimes cover it, it is there.
So mans disposition makes or
mars his prospect. There is no
healthier, no more hopeful light that
man can throw on bis pathway
than cheerfulness.

1B0UT OYsTERS.

Prof. Frazer, in the proceedings Of the
Philadelphia academy of science, re-
marks that those who are fond Of the
oyster know how much the "fresh" ex-
coed the "salts" in size and consistency.
The "Morris Coves" of Philadelphia,
while very insipid, are the Plumpest
bivalves brought to market. On the
other hand, the "AbseCOms and Brig
antines," while of better favor to those
who prefer salt oysters, are invariably
lean compared to their transplanted
rivals, as are also the "Cape Mays"
though, from some reason, not to the
same extent. The time Tor allowing the
salt oysters taken from the sea-coast to
lie out is seldom over two or three days.
At the end of this time the maximum
plumpness is attained, and beyond this
the oyster becomes lean again, besides
having lost its favor. 1t is not possible
that the smooth rOtundity of the laid-Out
oyster can be due to increase of flesh,
The time is TOO short, and the conditions
are unfavorable. Prof Frazer thinks
that the saltwater leaves the body Of
the oyster by dialytic action, through
Graham's well-knOwn law Of the diffu.
sion of gases and liquids. During the
growth Of the oyster on the sea-cOast its
tissues are constantly saturated with the
ocean brine. On removing this oyster
to merely brackish or fresh water, the
conditions are at once favorable for
osmose to be commenced. The iresher
and less dense liquid without Permeates
inwardly more rapidly than the more
saline and denser liquids within escape,
and the effect Is to swell the tissue, as a
cows bladder half filed with air and inn
mersed in vessel Of hydrogen is swOl-
len, or still more nearly like the swelling
Of a bladder half filed with copper sui
plate when immersed in pure water.

LIQUID GRATING WAX,

The following is recipe for making
Lefort's liquid grating wax, which is
highly commended in France, where it
was invented. and until lately kept Sc
Cret Melt one pound of common resin
over a gentle FIRE. Add to it an ounce
Of beef tallOw and stir it well. Take it
from the fire, let it cool down a little,
and then mix with a teaspoonful of
spirits of turpentine, and after that
about seven ounces of very strong alco-
hol (sixty-fvs per cent?. The alcohol
cOOls it down so rapidly that it will be
necessary to put it again on the fire,
stirring it constantly. Still the utmost
care must be exercised to keep the alco-
hOl from getting inAamed. To avoid it
the best way is to remove the vessel from
the fire when the lump that may have
been formed commences melting again.
This must be continued till this is a
homogeneous mass, similar to honey.
After a few days exposure to the atmos-
phere it assumes whitish color, and be-
comes as hard as stone, being impervious
to water or air.

COTTON.

Late planted cotton grows better than
early planted, but in localities where the
seasons are short, it is important to plant
early, to secure maturing of the crop.
Cotton should be planted very shallow
one inch sample depth. But dry weather
prevailing, 1t may not come up if the
seeds are 80 near the surface. The old.
fashioned plan of opening furrow with
scooter aud covering with two burrows of
the same, and then knocking off with a
board just as the cotton is ready to come
up, is the surest, but it is Glow and tedi-
Gus. A planter with wheel running in
bottom of furrOw, and pressing the earth
in narrow drill into which the seeds
fall, and covering with a board pressed
down by a spring, or by a block, will
under ordinary circumstances give good
stand. If the beds are rough and cloddy,
it is best to Precede the planter with a
harrow, which we will briefly describe.
1t is simply an ordinary triangular har-
row, from two and half to three feet in
width behind, and with teeth set little
sloping backward to prevent its fouling.
The front tooth should be about six
inches long in the clear and the rearmost
ten inches, the intervening ones increas.
ing gradually in length from front to
rear. Such harrow will hug a bed,
clean it OIL, still leave it elevated, and
with uniform rounded surface. We
find it exceedingly useful in our own
practice for smoothing and heshening
the surface Of beds, II is a great point
gained in cotton culture to have the
young plants in a straight narrow line
on smooth, gently rounded bed-the
first working can then 50 easily be given

mile away, is the grand new Catholic
fountain, the largest in America, and
except that at Cincinnati, the most elab-
crate in sculpture. It is a moral victory
over the last century to see the Jews,
Catholics, and Presbyterians,a all stiff rehg-
ionists, celebrating freedom In the sight Of
each other with monuments, hammer
clicking to hammer, stone rising TO stone,
Withenpoon, Father Mathew, and Moses
poised in the same landscape, and there
to remain. These monuments, raised
in the squirt Of few months, amount to
more than we have gathered in Central
Park in years. Indeed, the Philadelphia
show will leave them for the future time
the best Ornamented park in this cOun-
try. ,..
The enclosure of the exhibition is a
triangle on each side, the base Of the tri-
angle at the great entrance where the
main halls are; the other two sides con-
sequently press the contents Of the
grounds inward in the hollow angle at
the apex is the vast gothic building called
Agricultural hall, and along the side by
the river is the fine Moorish palace called
Horticultural hall. Two rivulets cross
the grounds and enter within them deep
gIens, down which lead paths to springs
and hooks and peanut men, while they
are crossed by viaducts for foot passen-
gers, which are fine specimens Of Ameri-
can piIe.work, aerial galleries of q mild
Alpine character. A bed of sunken
flowers between green banks, the like of
which Elizabeth nor Marie Antoinette
never saw excelled, leads from HOrti-
cultural hall straight to the centre Of the
whole. There was an earthquake, and
the flowers fell last and filed the gap.
Now around the third side Of the trian-
gle, behind the government building,
are the houses of the states and many ma
tions, all superb, all under way or fin
ished. The smallest has taste. The
Japanese house has some wOOd-carving
that is remarkable. New jersey has the
largest house of any.

nov 10 GET EARLY TOMATOES.

HON 10 YEA AA<AAHA@ = @-@
AS soon as your tomato plant has made
four leaves, pinch the top bud from the
stem, then take up the plant, pinch on
two inches from the tap root and trans
plant It in a common box frame where the
soil is rich and loamy. The box will
keep off the wind, and plants sown and
grown there eighteen inches apart will
produce fruit too weeks sooner than the
same planted in the open ground. A mat
or a few boards spread over the frame at
night will keep them from frost, and is far
easier and quicker than going over field
nightly and setting boxes over each hill.
As soon as the plants have set fruit on
two blossoms Of each branch, and the top
has grown two to four leaves, the pinch
ing off the end of each branch and top
should be again put into practice.

The variations in the spelling oil
Shakespeare name furnishes the topic
for an article in the May number Of
Scribner's Monthly, by ]. H. Gilmore.
There are five autographs OF Shakespeare
In existence acknowledged to be genuine,
four Of which are spelled shakspere and
the fifth Shakespeare. Mr.. Gilmore con.
cludes as follows: From an inspec-
ton of these autographs it is evident
that, however Sh-k-sp-r may have varied
in spelling the last syllable of his name,
he never inserts an after the k. So
says Mr., Furnival, and so must any one
say who takes the pains to examine the
fac SMILES. On this point, the spurious
and the genuine autographs are all
agreed. Following out the principle,
then, that man has an unquestionable
right to spell his name as he pleases, we
we ought not to force upon imperial
shaksp-r-, dead and turned 70 clay, an G
which he persistently and systematically
rejected, Still further, from an inspec.
ton Of the poets autographs, the weight
Of evidence Is very decidedly against
the insertion Of an a in the last syllable
Of the name or, In favor Of writing
shaAApere, not Shakespeare"

CULTURE OF THE ARTTCHOKE.

If we take into account the ease of Cul-
ture, freedom from the ravages of insects
and surprising yield, also that it requires
no protection through the winter, freez-
ing not injuring it in the least, / think
that the artichoke would take trent rank
among crops to feed stock. Five years
since, while conversing with practical
old farmer on the subject of raising roots
to iced stock, he gave it as his opinion,
based on experience, that there was no
other root as cheaply raised or that
yielded so heavily as the artichoke. The
course that I have adopted in raising
them is the same as for the potato, they
may be planted either in hills or drills,
and, as the frost does not iniure them,
they may be planted as early in thespring
as the ground is ready. AS they make
an immense growth of tops the tubers do
not form until fall, about the time they
blossom; but then they grow very rap
idly-prObably as much in one week as
the potato does in four.-ObiO Farmer.
