CHURCH CATS.

A,church is divided into two parties.
What one likes the other abhors. They
feel it their duty to stick to it. In the
devotional meeting they pray at each
other's Inconsistencies, hoping that the
prayer will go; to heaven, but by the way
Of Deacon Raferty's pew just stopping a
moment to give him a shaking. If one
wants the church built on the hill, the
other wants 1T down by the 'saw-miN. If
one wants the minister to avoid politics,
the other would like to have, him get up
on the side Of the pulpit and give three
cheers for John Brown S lnapsack,, which
is said to be still strapped on his back!'
When Elder Bangs sits: still in. prayer,
Elder Crank: stands up to show his con-
tempt for such behavior. If one puts ten
cents onSthe plate, tn; other throws: a
dollar on top oft, Ito show his abhor.
renee Of such parsimony. The whole
church catches the quarrelsome spirit,
and begins to 90 down: One half Of the
choir EATS up the other half. The pew
devours the pulpit, and the pulpits swal-
lows the pew. =. The session takes. down
the trustees, and the trustees masticate
the session. The Sunday School and
Sowing Society shew their teeth, and run
out: their claws, and get their: backs up,
and spit fire: Aud church councils as:

scat! scat't'. to the infamous howlers:
But che claws GO on with their work, till

A CHEAP WINTER SHEDDING

| A farmer III the Ohio Farmer: In a
section where there is scarcity of
boards or lumber of all kinds, or even
where they can be had for conSidera-
ton, it is a nice thing to know how to
build a;shedding which will answer all the
purposes of q shelter and at the same
timer cost bu: a mere nominal amount of
cash. The. profession Of the farmer is
not marked by rapid and large gains, but
| by slow--though sure--process oflittle
by little, and it, is, not what he makes
which renders him comfortable in after
life. but which he isayes. and the appa-
rently trivial; items .aggregeat Of vast i'm
por1ance. .:!l:,.::!:-- !i;.i-::;.
1t is very mise, to have commodious
shed, nicely made with timber, but if the
cash lis not at hand to make it with, it is
far better to i,have the shelter anyhow,
but; substitute a cheap. one--one requir-
ing !; only labor to put it up. We have
}aast. Pa&.Ha for our own animals what we
regard. as one Of the cheapest effective
shedding for your horned stock Or sheep,
during the day in winter. that can be
}:made. ~:,: - 50 -zr.'
Our stock Numbers toe many to put
them in the stable; we like to let all
have the entire day to themselves out in
| barnyard. as it does them far more good
than keeping them ,penncd up continual
| ly, only permitting them to come out to
get water and then putting them right
back again. We do not claim originality
in the idea or the construction Of this
shed, but wish to call the attentions of
other farmers to it's cheapness and advan-
tages.
The site for the shedding was against
one of the buildings, in the branyard,
and was skeleton shed with fodder
roof. We went into the wood; and cut
good heavy pieces Cor crotches. These
were planted in two rows parallel with
other building, one row being about ten
or twelve feet from the FIRST row. These
crotches should be set in the ground about
two feet and we'll ranmed to make every
! thing secure. From one crotch to an OPP
posite one stout pieces are laid parrellcl
with the building, and also along the
the outer row the same way: When this
is doHe other pieces are laid across or
butted up against the building which pre-
vents them from getting out Of place. If
the posts arc not too far apart, old rails.
laid thickly on. Will do just as well, and
new rails. not, needed for immediate use
elsewhere, can be used, as they can be
taken off in the spring for other use.
On the rails corn fodder is nicely and
closely laid, and so slopcd to carry off
the water. The fodder on the shed
should be used last, or at least not until
the winter is; fairly broken, SO that by
the time it is used the weather is fine
enough and warm enough to dispense
with its invaluable winter service. A
shed like this answers all purposes, ard
has the advantage Of costing nothing but
a little labor.

A COLOR BLIND ARTIST.
MAST COLOR KILLED-THE PICTORIAL Bill
LINGsGATE OF 1872.

MAST COLOR KILLED-THE PICTORIAL Bill
LINGsGATE OF 1872.
Joel Benton says, in an article in Apple
toms Journal 1t is difficult, too, to escape
the conclusion that he who becomes a con-
spicuously blind toady to a man, even
though the object OF laudation is high
government chisf, and worthy OF distin-
guished consideration for services rendered
the republic, has fallen a good ways below
the point of view from which the truth Is
to be discerned. And this occurred not
merely when we were given frequent pic
lures, in phases ad nauseam, of the second
Washington, but when we saw the brush
dipped in the same pigment which black
ened Tweed to blacken after the same
manner Horace Greeley, Carl Schurz and
Charles Sumner. 1t happened when, by
making Sumner strew flowers on Brooks's
grave, it libeled the sweetest and noblest
sentiment of spontaneous charity and for
giveness that ever moved the hearts OF
statesmen aud of great people. The
same spirit OF caricature could as easily
have punctured with its sardonic levity
the sublime and golden sentence, "Neither
do 1 accuse thee; go and sin no more;" or
have made ridicule OF the tenderest OF the
b5atitudes. 1t happened, too, when IL
crossed, as 1t not long ago did, the TIRES
hold OF the grave, to place into public view
again the coat-tails aud tag of calumniOus
memory-a "Reminiscences of that frantic
hate and pitiless pursuit of one whoss
shoe-stripgs, If they were worthy to wear
them, would ennoble both the ethics and
politics of his detrac,ors. 1t is proper 10
ask what is the ordinary effect OF such
pictorial billingsgste as issued forth with
such blatant iteration in the campaign OF
"? The natural inference from 1t was
that which set the three concededly purest
and most ideal statesmen of the country
into the category which had been famil-
iarizsd and made for the convict and
statesman late of Blackwe Island.
And so completely was this intimsted that
Tweed himself remarked 1t. He Is re-
ported to have said: 81 did feel somewhat
hurt when those pictures appeared but
now that the very best men in the country
are black balled, L can stand it," He felt
whitened and restored. And this was just
the effsct OF the artists work. It wiped
out and color-killed the fine performance
that bad preceded it.
