A Handy Table.

We are indebted to Mr.. J.H. Main,
carpenter and contractor, for the fol-
lowing valuable table to those who de-
sire to make their own estimates for
building. 1t is worth pasting in your
scrap-book:
One thousand feet of flooring or cell
ing will lay 800 of solid superficial
measure. One thousand feet of siding,
$50 feet. One thousand feet rustic sid
ing, 10 inches wide, 900 feet. All lum-
Der is measured before planning, and is
so calculated in all bills.
Five gallons of oil is sufficient for 100
pounds of lead-boiled oil or raw also,
turpentine weighs seven pounds to the
gallon. Eight pounds of properly mix
ed paint will W three squares, one
good coat.
1t takes from five to six pounds of
shingle-nails to the 1000 shingles.

When Men Are at Their Best.

III" 49, : y 80 .sr"t#EEF cd tLH.g
DR.. Beard states that from an ANALYSIS
of the lives of a thousand representative
men in all the great branches of the
human family he made the discovery
thai the golden decade was between
forty and fifty; the brazen between
twenty and thirty; the iron between
fifty and sixty The superiority of youth
and middle life over old age ia original
work appears all the greater when we
consider the fact that all the positions
OF honor and prestige-professorships
and public stations-are in the hand of
the old. Reputation, like money and
position. is mainly confined I'd the old.
Men are not, widely known until
long after they have done the work that
gives them their fame. Portraits of
great men are delusions; statues are
lies! They are taken when men have
become famous, which, on the average.
is at least twenty-five years after they
did the work which gave them their
fame. Original work requires enthusi-
asm. If all the original work done by
men under forty-five were annihilated.
they would be reduced to barbarism.
Men are at their best at that time when
enthusiasm and experience are almost
evenly balanced. This period, ON the
average, is from thirty-eignt TO forty.
After this the law is that experience in
creases, but enthusiasm decreases.

DIR. Parkes on Good Health.

Eight hours, and preferably nine, of
the "a should be devoted to sleep. OF
the rema nder, three to four might be
occupied with meals and rest during the
day, and the others should be given up
to exercise, equally divided between
mental and physical, but in such a man
ner that the two kinds of exercise are
alternated. Two hours of real study is
quite sufficient at a time for the grow
ing brain. Young women ought to be
physically trained as carefully as men.
They ought to have strong, firm mus
Giles, and be well developed. Five or
six hours of daily exercise, involving
real bodily labor, is not too much Tor
even "young ladies'" Much of
the exercise which is taken by
young people is of too violent a
character to be of any permanent
benefit. What is wanted is a steady,
progressive cultivation of the muscles,
such as attained by walking, running,
rowing, swimming, when these exer-
eiseS are carried on quietly and with
out the strain which too often occurs in
their daily practice. Young people
should never feel that they have a stom-
ach; they should eat when hungry till
hunger is gone, and should neither feel
weight or uneasiness, nor sleepiness af-
ter meals. Nitrogen enters into the
construction of every nerve, every mus
Gle of the body. Both the animal and
vegetable kingdoms supply heterogeneous
foods which nan can use, and with any
of which he can attain his highest
bodily and mental development. When
peeuniary circumstances permit it is
best to let meat supply a considerable
portion of nitrogen required;
but the laboring man, by ringing the
changes on oatmeal, maize, peas,
beans, rice and macaroni, to which
may be added occasionally cheese and
bacon, may bring up his children as
well nourished as those of the richest
people at a small cost. As to drink,
young men and women are advised I'd
abstain from alcohol, for it is CERTAIN
that it does harm to the growing body;
and with regard to persons of adult
years, the uncertainty which prevails az
to the value of the alcohol turns the
scale in favor of total abstinence in.
stead of moderate drinking. DIR.
Parkes is decidedly in favor of early
Misunderstanding, as he has, that
much ill-health among both sexes would
have been prevented by the occupations
and ever by the cares of married life.

A Wisconsin Fish Story.

ZF -
The history, so far as is known, Of a
mammoth pickerel inhabiting Lake
Fowler, writes a correspondent OF the
Chicago Telegraph, will be OF interest
to all sportsmen who handle the hshlng
line, The skill of this piscatory veter-
an in evading the attractive spoon and
,artfully prepared bail s the subject OF
local tradition and hotel piazza; gossip
from year to year in this delightful
place. The size of this king Of the lake
is variously stated by those who have
seer him, and was pretty accurately
noted by DIR. Henshall, who had him on
a hook a few yearsrago. The doctor
saws the fish was nas long as his oar,'''
and he estimates it's weight, for he had
a good pull at it, at about 100 pounds
or over. The monster had q scar, fixed
in his youth. One side of his face has
at some time been partly torn away bya
hook which caught there, but from
which his tremendous strength enabled
him to escape, though with the loss OF
much of his beauty, for the big scar
amounts to a positive deformity. One
of his favorite resorts is the little bay
which makes in near Draper Hall, prob
ably because crumbs and bits Of meat
from the kitchen are occasionally
thrown here to entice the fish to that
~neighborhood. Many fishermen, have
tried all their wiles to capture this scaly
monster, but the failures have been re-
peated and disheartening. DR.. Hen
shall's experience with this fish is worthy
OF mention. He started out for the
well known haunts of the tycoon of the
lakes, and traced him to the bay at
Draper Hall. There he threw ont the
seductive spoon of enormous dimen-
sions, and it's white glisten on the wa
tiers was like that of a full harvest
moon. The fish saw the shining bait
and took after it. DR.. Henshall rowed
slowly to the deep water, with "Old
Lop Jaw" as the visitors call him, in
full view. Fifteen or twenty rods away
the big fish took the hook. But--and
the doctor is a veracious mantle fish
only fairly tasted of the hook, though
the curved steel must have rested a mo-
ment in the mouth. Then it was taken
in the teeth as a fiendish horse grabs
the bit, and the fish darted forward to
the boat and gave it such a punch as a
spermaceti whale might give to a YES
sci on the Pacific. The pickerel shook
his head with a quick, angry firt, such
as a terrier dog gives a rat, and out
came spoon and hook from his mouth,
and they were thrown 30 feet above the
water by the terrific reorganization of
this hero of the blue waters of Fowler
Lake. Other similar conflicts with this
fish are recited. 1t is as difficult to get
him to take a hook as it is to catch a
weasel asleep. He is as cunning as a
Sioux warrior. All the arts of civilized
men are as familiar to him as they are
to themselves. His exploits by which
the best fishermen went home disgraced
and acknowledged failures are in every
hody,s month.

"You ar'n't the stuff cut-throats are

me. The boys have all a square grip
for you, and there's your old half-cialm

"Cottrill's the deuce!" calculated
Sam, with fervor, then shook his head
slowly but emphatically. "No, Matt,
I should always be ashamed to touch an

an honest man in the face. The fend
took me with my eyes wide open, and
it isn't always those who choose that
can back out" .
MATHS voice, when he spoke, was
husky with suppressed emotion.
"Sam Ross, you think you've lost
your 'grip'-I tell you, you've just be-
gun to find it. You've shown manliness
enough tonight to redeem ten such
men as you were in the mines. Shake!"
Half-timidly, Sam held out his hand
to meet MATHS hearty, vise-like grip.
'FSay you'll come, Sam"
"But-the boys-n ''"t. f..'|.
"I'l answer for the boys, to the last
man of them; or, if you choose, to-
nights secret shall be betwixt us two,
and there's my hand on it," -
Sam rode on in silence for a little
while, then said: .-..t. .... ..rf..

CHANGING ahead, Matt saw that the
two in advance had checked their beasts.
In silence he joined them. #.
"Well, stranger" hailed the burly
spokesman, "here we part company.
Yonder are the lights of the town"
"And remember" added the other,
''that Satan is not always as black as he
is painted"
There was a laugh at this sally, and
the party rode back along the mountain
trail, Matt striking spur for the city.
Two weeks from that time a gaunt,
hollow-eyed man came pulling into
camp. 1t was Sam Ross.
"You kin tell the boys the hull sto-
ry," he said to Matt. "Those two
cusses is both lodged in Jail. 1t hap

THE TRRESHING FLOOR.
BY AUGUsTA

BY AUGUSTA LARNED.
Come, Jenny, into the barn dear,
Where Jack sings high the fail;
The golden stalks dance far and near,
Tn blows fall thick as hail.
So rich the tan upon his cheek,
So firm the graceful lines.
He stands like some inspired athlete
In Sparta's ancient times.
The fail beats out upon the ground
A song that fill his ears;
'''Tis love that makes the world go round,"
This happy thresher hears.
The sun steals past the old barn door
That frames this upland wide,
And DER the beams and on the floor
1t plays at seek and hide. d..
The woods are caught in silver streams,
The meads are fresh and far,
AS through the vision of our dreams
Blue mountains rise in air.
And angels seem to walk in bands
Along yOn cloudy pile;
There may we fold our work-worn hands,
And rest within Gods smile.
Two gray doves on the ridge pole sit
And sun their bosom'S pride,
While swallows skim, n dive, and dip
In circles far and wide.
And white clouds pause the barn above
Like seraphs in the air;
For all the powers of peace AMI love
Surround a happy pair.
The earth is verdantfor your sake,
The hills are fair to see;
The cautious echoes will not wake
To breathe loves mystery.
Jacks stout fail on the yellow grain
Will chaunt of home and rest:
The bread that's Won to that refrain
Is sweetest to the taste.
And while you stand to knead the bread,
And Jack swings high the fail,
No cloud shall shade your golden head,
The lOVe-light shall not fail.
Come, Jenny, into the barn, dear;
AS trip your lightsome feet,
Our Jack shall cease the fail to hear,
And list his own heart beat.

Tae Lady Whistler.

There is a young lady residing in the
northern part of the city, says the De-
troit Free Press, who can whistle like a
little man. In fact, she can whistle
louder and better than most men, and
she doesn't care who hears her. She
was on the street yesterday morning
whistling "Yankee Doodle" good and
strong, and walking behind her a rod
or so was a laboring man. When her
whistle came to a stop he overlook her
and asked:
"Did you hear any n whistling?"
"Yes," she replied.
sit wasn't me-" he said.
"No; it was me-" she replied.
"Is that SOL" he exclaimed, coming
to a halt. "Well, when I heard it I
thought I'd be-durned if it was me, and
now I'm be-durned cause it was you!
You don't chew tobacco, do you?"

Road Laws.

In Chester county, Pa, roads
are in charge of township Of
ficers, who are held responsible
for their condition. Every three
years they are divided into short
sections of not more than half
mile, and sold at public auc-
ton to the highest bidder. who
is bound by q written contract:
the only reservation made is,
that the purchaser must be a
citizen of the township. and
must sign the contract. Legal
decisions have fixed that the
public have no rights beyond
that of passing over the road III
the ordinary course of travel,
and that the right to all grass,
fruit, or minerals. remains with
the owner of the farm from
which the land was taken. The
township supervisors have un-
limited control as to earth need
ed for repairs, and there is no
appeal from their commands
The benefits Of this plan are,
that the roads are usually bought
by some adjacent farmer, who
by little work at the proper
time, may keep them in good
order at a less expense to the
township :han by the old plan,
under which the mending was
done only at stated times. The
main drawback seems to be,
that the supervisor, being . man
and a "neighbor," is not always
as particular near home as furth-
er of. Will a strict legal con-
struction allow a line fence, no
matter how wide, to have lis
middle on the line? | think in
this country, if pushed to law,
it would be found that each one
of two adjacent neighbors must
have all of his half Of the fence
on his own land. Suppose one
elects to have a hedge with a
ditch on each side Of it, can he
place one ditch and half Of the
hedge on his neighbours land?
Many farmers have an idea that
they may have an unsightly OBJ
ject near the road, provided it
is Oh the field side of the fence,
and if, when in this position, it
fi'ightens horses they are not re-
sponslble. Recent legal decis-
ions seem to show that even in
the above case they may be
held responsible for damages
arising from horses being
frightened and running Off
