KEEPING UP THE STANDARD.

The proprietor of Broadway soda
fountain has had, up to a week ago, a
malicious-minded young man in his
employ. A month ago when a man
with white necktie and solemn look
entered and said he would take pine
apple syrup in his, the young man sub
stituted brandy instead, and was re-
warded by hearing the good man say,
Keep that apple syrup up to that stan
dard and I'll come over from Jersey at
least once day to patronize you"
He came again and again, and every
time he came he wiped his chin with a
tender motion and benign expression,
and whispered that Jersey City soda
fountains were over forty miles behind
the times on pineapple syrup. But
when he dropped in again yesterday he
found new young man at the foun-
tain. He wiped his heated brow and
called for his old favorite, but, after a
sip or two at the frothy beverage, he
set the glass down and inquired if he
didn't order pineapple syrup.
you did, and you got it," was the
1CP4y'
"It can't be-can't be, young man.
I have had soda water here for the last
four weeks, and the young man always
drew the pineapple syrup out of that
faucet up there"
"He did; why that's brandy!' ex-
claimed the boy. -...,
The young man looked at him long
time, a shade of sadness gradually
stealing over his face, and as he put
down his nickle and went out he said
That other young man IS on the high
road to degradation, and yet I wonder
why they can't make pineapple syrup
with something of that upper faucet
flavor to it!''

COOLING THE BODY SUDDENLY. Science
of Health says: eff farmers would
avoid suddenly cooling the body, after
great exertion, if they would be care
full not to go with wet clothing and wet
feet, and if they would not overeat
when in on exhausted condition, and
battle daily, using much friction, they
would have less rheumatism
This plan applies with less peril
nence to farmers than any other class,
since the fact that they are in the open
air, and, perspiring freely, tends to
keep them cool, added to this the exer-
else taken from the field to the house,
cools the system more or less perfectly.

Why PoTAroEs DEGENERATE.
body knows that when new variety of
potatoes makes its appearance the yield
is large. The reason is that seed pota-
toes cost from two to five dollars bushel,
and out of motives of economy we plant
scientifically. We cut a tomato into
small bits, with not more than two eyes
in piece, When these potatoes be-
come cheap we plant whole potatoes,
big or little, generally little, and the re-
result is just about the same as if We
planted from ten to twenty grains of
corn in hill.

of fat pork till bright brown. Then
lay in the raw beef in one piece, brown
on each side. Then cover with boiling
water, and stew six or seven hours.
Add water rs it boils away, SO there will
be enough for gravy when done. About
half an hour before done, salt to the

one of whole allspice, a large stick OF

done dish the meat; thicken the gravy
with two sroonsful Drowned -four, and

SULPHUR IN GAs.-An endeavor has
been made recently to prove that the
sulphur in gas cannot be sensibly injur-
ious, since the sulphurous acid in a gas
lighted room is said not to amount to
more than one half-millionth part of
the atmosphere filling the room. But,
just as in the parallel instance of drink
ing water, the difference between pure
and an impure atmosphere resides in
these minute differences, and one part
of sulphureted hydrogen in two mil
lions of air would render the air intol-
erably vile. A proper estimate of the
Importance of traces of powerful poi
sons in the air we breathe is encouraged
by considering how great is the quanti-
ty of air which we take into the lungs
and bring into contact with the delicate
lung-structure in the course of twenty
four hours. And there can be little
doubt that anything like one part of
sulpureted hydrogen or sulphurous
acid in two millions of air would con-
stitute most serious atmospheric i'm
purity.

SHORT SERMONS.

A man will not listen to truth told
him by an enemy, and he very rarely
gets it from friend.
Incidence is stream which flows on,
but yet undermines The foundation of
every virtue.
If you want to get rich, give; if you
want to get poor, grasp; if you want to
be happy, deny yourself for others.
If there be any good in thee, believe
that there is much more in others. It
hurteth thee most of all to prefer thy
self even to one.
Health is transitory; the pride of
rank soon worries; and riches make
themselves wings and fly away; but the
JOY of Christian, though it walks upon
earth, hides it's head in heaven. It is
the gift of God, and God alone is able
to deprive him of it.
You never can get at the literal imi-
tation of facts. They disguise them
selves by the very strength Of their life;
get told again and again in different
ways by all manner of people; Che lit
eralness of them is turned topsy turvy,
or inside out, over and over again; then
the fools come and read them wrong
side upwards, or else say there never
was fact at all. Nothing delights a
true blcckhead so much as to prove q
negative-to show that everybody has
been wrong. Fancy the delicious SEN
sation to an ompty-headed creature of
fancying for moment that he has emp
tied everybody's head as we'll as his
own. Nay, that for once his own hol-
low bottle of head has had the best of
other bottles, and has been first empty
first to know nothing.

The demand of Congressional committee
for the bank account OF General Ingalls,
from 1872 TO 1874, made yesterday, is the
natural and legitimate result OF such nigh
handed acts as the Imprisonment by either
House of Congress Of men charged with no
crime, simply because they refuse to reveal
the details of their business transactions.
The readiness with which General Ingalls,
agreed TO accede TO the demand shows that
he has nothing he cares to conceal, but he
would have been justified In refusing to COM
ply with IL, In view Of the fact that he is
charged with no crime, and that the demand
of the committee was an improper one.

Reading Matter on Every Page

Judge Thurman made some particularly
sensible remarks in the Senate yes terday on
the subject Of suffrage In the District OF Col
umbia- Without having reference TO the
general principles of suffrage, he thought IL
little singular that If the people OF the Dis
trict feel themselves so much oppressed as
one would infer from Mr.. MOrton's state
ment, they have not manifested a sense OF
their oppression. He very rightly thinks
that the American people are the last people
in the world TO live quiet under grievances,
and that when any portion OF them think
they are oppressed they generally make
themselves heard by petitions to the law
making power for redress. The Senator hit
the nail square on the head. Our people
don't banker in the least for a repetition OF
Murder Bay suffrage rule, aod when they
want II will lose no time In letting Congress
know. In answer to the objection that Com
missiOners from the states are not likely TO
fully understand the wants Of the people OF
the District OF Columbia, Mr.. Thurman sug-
gests a remedy TO the effect that the Com
missiOners be "able-bOdied. GOt-fearing"
residents of the District of Columbia; and
this Is remedy Congress can apply at any
time IL pleases.

The whipping of colored girl in Alexan-
dria, Virginia, day or two ago as pun
tshment for theft will be likely TO elicit ad-
verse comment. Delaware, Virginia, and
California, are, we believe, the only states
In the union where the whipping post is
egaliZed institution. The advocates OF the
lash claim that experience has demonstrated
Its effectiveness In preventing crime, and
assert that this degrading punishment is
very rarely inflicted on the same indl yidual
second time. In California an act has lately
been passed by the legislature providing
that all wife heaters be publicly whipped. Ii
has excited considerable disgust among a
certain class OF tender hearted Individuals,
but the majority of the people doubtless
think that the class OF Offenders ii question
richly deserve the lash well laid on. This
sort of punishment for wife-beater5 would
seem 10 be re.ributive justice, but public
sentiment will hardly tolerate the use OF the
lash for any other offence.
