A Singular Charity.

1t may be thought singular pur-
pose of charity to provide for the
marriage of poor maids" and one
that would accomplish but little in u
field where tse objects would be 50 nu-
merouS; nevertheless, the benevolent
designs Of men have been turned in
that channel, as well as in other va
nous directions mentioned in the stat
ute. BY the Will of Mr.. Henry Raine,
wealthy London brewer. a fund was
established for just such a purpose.
Among the notable charitable institu-
tons Of London there is none more
novel in inceptioifor more unique in
management than Raine's Asylum, es-
dollshed ny him in 1856, for clothing,
educating and properly training for
domestic service forty young girls,
taken from lower school previously
established by him. On arriving at
.iie age of twenty-five, any girl who
mas been educated in the asylum. and
VINO can produce satisfactory testi-
lhohlalS of her conduct while in serv-
ice, may become candidate for a
marriage portion Of goo, for which
SIX girls are allowed to draw twice in

Photographing the Baby.

They came at ten a. m.-.ne baby,
his grandmother. his papa, ald MANI
ma and two aunties. They wanted
to have his picture taken. The obllg-
ing artist got everything in readiness,
brought out the little velvet-lined high
chair in which babies are usually
photographed, and then the trouble
began. The baby's papa wanted to
take off his sack because it had such
pretty fat arms, but its mamma was
afraid that it might take cold. Then
one auntie thought it would be so
sweet to take off his little stockings
and sit him in a big armchair, but
his other auntie thought that such a
performance would be very improper,
and a conflict seemed imminent.
Finally it was agreed that they
should take the artists advice and
strap him up in the high chair. After
much ringing of bells the baby was
induced to look with favor on the new
state of affairs. The artist prepared
to take the negative, but just at the
critical moment the infant doubled
himself across the strap and screamed
Justify. His papa jingled the bells
anew, the artist set the music-boX
going, while the mamma drew him out
of lis chair, and his auntie called him
a putty utzy title sing"
Peace being restored, another mega
tive was taken, this time with toler-
able success. But one auntie did not
like the expression of the face, and
the mamma thought that it did not do
Justice to his eyes. The next time he
stuck both fists into his mouth and
shut one eye; and the next time his
grandma, who had been watching him
intently, ran hastily forward and be-
gan shaking him and slapping him on
the back.
1t was twelve o'clock, and the Their
mometer stood at ninety-eight degrees
in the shade, and that artist ground
his teeth and looked to see how far it
was from the window to the sidewalk.
Three or four more unsatisfactory at
temptS were made, and at last the
baby, who had been taken out of the
chair SO many times and was not prop
erly secured, slipped down on the floor
with thump. A grand hubbub fol-
lowed; everybody screamed the timid
auntie tainted and the papa swore /;
while the trembling artist, fearing for
his life, secreted himself behind a
screen in the corner, where he waited
until he was sure that no bones We're
broken and then he came forth. SAYING
that he had been suddenly called down
stars TO see "A man
He was SO much relieved on being
told that they would not try again that
day that he forgot to live up to his
rules and demand pay when the neg
alive is taken" AS they started down
the stars the head of the family in
formed him that they would call again
in a few days, and he has hired a small
boy to sit at the foot Of the steps and
bring him word at their approach, SO
that he may have time to lock the
door and hang out a notice" Gone

Clean Milk.

CLEAN, pure milk is one of earth's
choicest luXuries-onSWhich the peas
ant may share with the crown.
The COW, of all animals made for the
service of civilized man, is least liable
to disease and sickness, and the prod
uct of her udder is best adapted to
his wants and needs. Milk. as it
comes from the udder of the COW, is
comparatively pure if the animal is
kept on wholesome, clean food but a
large per centage of filth and impure
ties gets into the milk through the
carelessness of the mixer, and because
the COWS are kept i'll places of filth and
untidineSS.
If milk was translucent it would re-
veal the careleSsnesS of mixers and
the Indifference of housekeepS in re-
gard to keeping it clean and pure as it
comes from the cow. 1t usually con-
tains an amount of dirt and filth for
which there is not the least reason or
excuse: but being Opaque the dirt is
invisible until the bottom of the pail
or pan is reached. No people in the
world are so neat in all dairying ope-
rations as the peasant farmers OF Hol-
land. The stables are kept scrupu-
lousy neat and clean, and the udders
of the cows are washed before the milk
is drawn. In this country our COWS
are yarded at night, usually in the
barn-yard with no regard whatever to
cleanliness. The milking is done by
hired men and boys who carry with
them neither brush nor cloth with
which to remove dust, dirt or filth.
OF course some, more or less, goes into
the milk pail and fiavors the milk to a
certain degree and renders it impure
and unclean. Fine. sweet butter new
er is made from such milk. It would
seem that a reform in the manner OF
keeping cows at night might be brought
about without much ado. Then lei
housekeepers require that the men and
/ boys provide themselves with some
means of removing all dust and dirt
before bringing their pals near the
COWS 10 milk. Detroit Tribune.

Flowing for Wheat.

THE time for this work is upon u.s..
If we were to say that millions of dol
lars are lost yearly 10y the shiftless sys-
TEN Of blowing land for wheat, we
would be within bounds. In hardly
anything are farmers more remiSs.
SO the ground is turned over three or
four inches it is deemed that the work
is we'll done; and not one-half of the
farmers turn over with the plow the
land even to this depth. If they will
take rule with them into the field,
they will see that we are telling the
truth. 1t is astonishing that 50 good
crops Of wheat are raised with such
poor preparation of the ground.
1t can hardly be necessary at this
late day to speak of the great advan-
tages of deep culture. The greater
amount of plant food furnished, the
better drainage afforded in wet wealth
er, the increased moisture in deep
plowed land in case of drouth, and
other advantages that might be emu
merated-are too apparent to need re-
peating.
The first requisite in deep blowing
is good plow-one that is capable of
turning a deep furrow. These can be
obtained almost anywhere. Great
Improvement has been made in plows
within our recollection, and most plow
manufactures are turning out excel
lent plows. The next requisite is a
good team-not a pair of poor,
scrawny skeletons, but Il strong, fast
walking, evenly-pulling, well-broken
team of horses or mules. Deep
blowing cannot be done with a
poor team. There must be power
to turn over broad. deep fur
row. When this is turned over, if a
team attached to subsoil pillow could
follow. uplifting the ground in the
same furrow, it would pay well for
the extra labor. There is an uplifting
subsoiler and a long, marrow mohl-
board subsoiler which turns over the
subsoil, throwing about one-fomth of
the soil on the top of the furrow
Every farmer ought to have both Of
these subsoil plows, to use as he may
prefer-and increased crops would
recompense him for their USE
But where the suhsoil plow is not at
hand, it is better to attach three horses
to pillow, and turn over a furrow ten
or twelve inches deep-and it will be
many years before the land will forget
1t. If the land has been long worn, it
will almost make new land of it; and
the increased yield will astonish the
owner.
OF course with poor white clay sub
soil different course must be pur-
sued. That does not want to be
brought on top. But the uplifting
subsoil plow should be used to open
and deepen the almost impervious
clay.
If the suggestions we have made are
followed, we shall hear less about
wheat being winter-killed, less Of light
crops of wheat, less of cheat in wheat.
less of the complaint that farming
don't pay.-C0lmdn's Rurul W0rld.

Southern War Claims.

Some weeks ago we advised democratic
candidates for Congress in Ohio and Indiana
to answer frankly certain questions put to
one Of them, Mr.. Milton Sayler, about
Southern war claims. Mr.. Sayer, after
some hesitation, made q satisfactory reply,
and has been reelected. 1T the democrats
in the East are wise they will also make
some declaration on the subject, which is
attracting good deal of attention, and
doubt as to their position on which is likely
to injure them.
The question is, What will the democratic
party do, if it comes into power in relation
to claims made by citizens Of Southern
States for damages Inflicted on their prop
erty by United States troops in the course
of military operations? ? Republican speakers
and journals put forward this question
and frequently assert that such claims would
have great and perhaps unrestricted recogni-
ton in a democratic Congress. 1t is at pres
ent as everybody knows who listens to cur
rent political conversation, one of the most
impressive points in the republican cam
vass and it is strengthened by the un-
doubted fact that there are not few silly
people in the Southern States who fondly
imagine that under some conceivable cir
cumstances they can get pay from the gov
ernment for use, occupation, waste or de-
struction Of their property by our armies
