Wet Grain.

Many farmers are vexed and
tried with wet and damp grain, and
others are deferred from threshing
out the shock, from their fears OF
injury to the grain while in the bin.
The remedy for these troubles is
few stones scattered through the
bin, or better yet a few bricks.
They will absorb the moisture and
the grain will come out like shot.
Try it, brother farmers, there is no
patent on it. This one item will be
worth the cost of several years sub
scription.-Prairie Farmer.

A wrong return of the electoral
votes of the States of South Carroll
ma, Florida and Louisiana is simply
a change of the Government and
Constitution of the United States,
and it is no more nor less than the
plainest revolution of fraud and by
fraud in its worst aspects, and it is
also a revolution by some twenty or
thirty of the most notorious and
most despised persons in the coun-
try.-New York Express.

Celery as a Cure-all.
[Journal of ChemistrY.l

The habitual daily use of this veg
ctable is much more beneficial to
man than most people are aware of
A writer who is familiar with its
virtues says: 81 have known many
man and women who from various
causes had become so much affect
ed by nervousness that when they
stretched out their hands they shook
like aspen leaves on a windy day,
and by q moderate daily use OF the
blanched foot stalks of celery as a
salad they became as strong and
steady in limb as other people. 1
have known others so nervous that
the least annoyance put them in a
state of agitation, and they were in
slant perplexity and fear, who
were also effectually cured by mod
crate daily use of blanched celery as
salad at meal time. have known
others to be cured of palpltation Of
the heart. Everybody engaged in
labor weakening to the nerves
should use celery daily in the sea
son, and onions in its stead when
not in season"
To this we may add that prom

celery. 1t is nourishing drink at
lunch time, far better than tea or
coffee, ana is doing great deal in
this neighborhood to promote tenn
perance. We give celery almost
daily to our Canary birds, and it
cures them of fits; they are little an

need such a remedy very much, and
the relish with which they take it is
a proof that their instinct guides
them to eat what is good for them

Some people act as though the
chief business of life is to find fault.
They never look at anything with
the expectation of enjoyment, but
with the determination to grum bic
and to find some flaw that will give
them n good excuse tor it. They
always remind us of the poor fell
low who was where tourists like
to be as soon as possible after they
start, "about half seas over" and
who on returning tn his home NUT
tered, "Well, if 1 find my wife up

Peter Cooper walks down to his
institute every day, looks in the

You will seldom find one who
worships at the shrine of Nature,
and enjoys little things and humble
pleasures with a full heart, to be
bad, cruel or base, morose, gloomy
or unhappy. There is so much to
learn about the simplest weed that
grows, the tiniest insect that wings
its flight! The very rocks beneath
our feet have marvellous interest
ing history to unfold to those who
take real pleasure in listening to
their revealments.

NEVER MIND.

What's the use of always fretting
At the trials we shall fnd,
Ever strewn along eur pathways
Travel on and never mind.
Travel onward-working, hoping,
Cast no lingering glance behind.
At the trials once encountered,
Look ahead and never mind.
What is past is past forever:
Let all fretting be resigned;
1t viii never help the matter
Do your best and never mind.
Friendly words are often spoken
When the feelings are unkind;
Take them for their real value
Pass them by and never mind.
And if those who might hefriend you,
Whom the ties of nature bind,
Should refuse to do their duty,
Look to Heaven and never mind.
