In France.
National Repository for september,l


France must be very lively country,
for it has always something to say for
itself to the outside world. Just now
its internal conflicts are especially inter-
esting. 1t is the land of dynasties, hav-
ing three we'll defined royal or imperial
families-(perhaps also a fourth one is
in embryo, in the Marshal President),
and yet the nation seems to be demon
strating the fact that it is quite able and
willing to get along without employing
any one of them 1t seems manifest that
if the French people could be permitted
to work out their own destiny, without
the interference of either mobiles or
ecclesiastics, the republic that has been
struggling into form and force for
nearly hundred years would, erelong,
be established on an immovable founda-
ton. 1t is as gratifying as it is wonder
country of the invincibility of ideas,
and their power to assert themselves
against the most formidable opposition.
And it is especially hopeful for French
liberalism, that in its present conflict il
is so ably championed. The wisdom OF
age so richly displayed by Theirs is ably
and beautifully seconded and sustained
by the discretion and gallantry of Gam
beta. The charge of factiousness and
destructive opposition to order no longer
applies to the popular leaders, but to the
partisans of reaction The election to be
held in September will have been waited
for with no small share of interest by
all true friends of human liberty May
| God prosper the right.

precaution is to dose each of the calves
and yearlings with ounces of EPSON
salts for two days before it is turned out,
and then graduate the feed as men
toned.
A sure remedy for the COdling Moth
would be blessing to some orchardists,
and the device suggested by the Rural
Home should therefore be everywhere
tested. According to it, all the most
successful fruit growers, East and West.
have decided that there is no better rem
edy for the pest than to pasture hogs in the
orchards, to eat the wormy apples and
the worms therein. If the orchards are
too large for the number of hogs kept,
sheep are turned in. If all will unite in
this system, its good results will soon be
manifest. There is no doubt about its
being effective.
1t is not often questioned, perhaps,
why hay is injured more by rain when
| cured than when green, but it is a legiti-
mate inquiry. The reason probably lies
In the fact that grass recently cut still
continues for time the vital processes,
and is similar in condition to standing
grass. Being filled with its own sap, II
does not absorb the rain, and hence
nothing is worked out of it; while, when
wilted or dry, the rain is not only alb
sorbed, but washed through it, taking
with 1t valuable properties, as well al
placing the hay in condition to oxydize
or heat more rapidly, and thus carry OF
its valuable elements.
The push hoe is valuable instrumen
often used on walks and drives but rarely
in the garden. 1t consists of a squar
blade like chopping knife placed at tn
end of pole and attached at an angl
that will admit of using it in an erec
position. The person using it pushe
ahead and cuts the weeds off just belo,
the surface. In melon field or anon
cucumber or squash vines, where a com
mon hoe or rake could be used only wit
difficulty, this implement can be EN-
ployed advantageously. 1t can b
pushed about under the vines, injurin
them very little or none at all, while tn
, weeds are easily removed and the groun
nicely stirred,

GLEANINGS FROM THE MUSE.
MASKED BATTERIES.

II you'll keep it secret--honcr bright
III tell you a little story Joe;
Something that happened to me last night
Here at the masquerade ball, you know.
You may have noticed I've spooned Of late
On Laura Clyde-nOthing else to do
She's rather pretty--at any rate,
Fond Of flirting, and am, too.
Laura's n friend Of my sister Fan;
Her room joins mine aud the wall are thin,
50 !, by accident, heard them plan
Their dresses for masqueradingin.
The ball was lovely, the costumes fine.
And either dancing or iced champagne
Can't say which, but expect the wine
Just little confused my brain.
So. meeting Laura--a gypsy maid
Knew her al once by her dress, you see
took her out for promenade
On the piazza alone with me.
Flrted? Said I was deep in love,
Madly worshiPed the ground she trod,
Vowed Il by all below, and above,
Did she return it?--a word, nod?
The fair head dropped in assent, and
Snatched off the mask--with rapture kissed her
A peal Of laughter my reply,
BY Jove, old boy, it was my sister!
Laugh at me Joe! Don't spare my pride,
Nor mind my feelngs-I feel 80 glad
II was my sister, not Laura Clyde;
Heavens. What an escape / had!

HOME HINTS.

To Set the Color in Stockings
When washed for the first time, use
little OK gall (Which can be procured at
the druggist's). Use it in the water only
Also have teaspoonful of powdered
borax to every pail of hot water, Use
very little soap. After the first use of
OK gall, borax will answer every purpose.
Do not let the stocking remain long in
any water. Hang in heshade to dry.
Protecting Unused Furniture from
MOths.-Carpets and other furniture
can be entirely protected from moths by
care, cleanliness and turpentine, all
kinds of furniture should be we'll beaten
to remove dust and moths, and papers
wet with spirits of turpentine should be
placed on the backs and seats of stuffed
articles and the whole sewed up in a
cloth. The most delicate material will
not be injured by applying the turpen-
tine in this way, For carpets, free use
of tobacco leaf or stems is desirable.
Papers dipped in turpentine here and
there will do their share, but for outside
packing each carpet should be sewed in
burlap.
Rules for the Sick Room.-1.)
Bring in fresh flowers or something new
every day; even the commonest green
thing is better than nothing. (2.) Don't
talk anything unpleasant. Talk about
anything that will lead the patient
thoughts away from his aches and pains,
and leave him in cheerful and restful
state of mind. (9.) Follow the doctors
directions implicitly. (4.) Never ask a
sick person what he wants to eat. If he
asks for anything that will not injure
him, get it if you can. Never bring him
much at time. A little bit in dainty
dish will sometimes tempt the appetite
when large quantity would cause
nausea. (5.) Expect sick persons to be
unreasonable. They will fret and com.
plain, no matter what happens, and
must be borne with patiently.

Lola MOntez's Hair.

Virginia (Nevada) Enterprise.l
John Hull Pennville, who passed
through this city day or two since
from Plumas County, California, on his
way to Esmeralda County, in this State,
has in his possession curious relic of
that strange and adventurous woman
Lola Montez. Mr.. Pennville is an ac-
complished violinist, and at the time
when Lola was residing in Grass Valley.
California, was in the habit of playing
for her in order that she might practice
some new dance of her own invention.
The violinist had strong passion for
making collections of human hair, par
ticularly the long tresses of women. He
had several times limited to Lola his
great desire to possess a tress of her
hair, but she refused to take these hints,
however plainly made.
At this time Lola had in her posses
sion ather home in Grass Valley a young
bear that she was training for some pur-
pose, she being at that time but twenty
nine years of age and still full of life
and ambition.
One day when Pennville again limited
about the tress, Lola said: 1" Mr.. Penn
vile, if you will go into that back yard,
throw that bear to the ground and hold
him one minute, by my watch, l will
give you a strand of my hair large
enough for the bow of your violin"
"Donew cried Pennville, and he at
once proceeded to the yard for his tussle
with the bear, Lola following to time
him.
The bear was grizzly not yet old
enough to be very dangerous, and Penn
vile, proceeding as though at play with
the animal, with very little trouble OF
risk succeeded in winning the much Gov
eted lock of hair.
The tress was promptly surrendered
and Pennville long kept it among the
other specimens in his collection, but
when he heard of Lola's death, some
where in the State of New York in 1856
or 1861, he remembered her words at the
time he won the memento, will give
you strand large enough for the bow
of your VIOLIN" and he then proceeded
to place the hair in the handsomest bow
he could procure, where it remains tC
this day.
Will you play us something with the
bow, Mr.. Pennville?" we asked, anxious
to be able to say we had heard even the
smallest thing played with so strange ;
relic of a now almost-forgotten woman
and trembling lest we should be refused
such qualification.
al seldom use this bow in playing,
said Mr.. Pennville, "but on this occa
sion I will give you a short piece tina
was a favorite with Lola. In othe
words, you shall hear a bit of music tina
was loved by Lola Montez played witt
her own hair"
To our surprise he then proceeded t.
play a most mournful. fearful bit o
something, and, as he concluded, he said
!, "That was not only favorite piece wit
Lola, but was also of her own compost
ton"
: Pennville is now quite an old man
and does not appear to be overburdene
with this worlds goods, but it woul
take large sum of money to purchas
that fddle-bow.

BREVITIE,S.

An acre of beans yielding twenty-five
bushels returns more profit at two dollars
than many other crops requiring more
labor. Plant the last of May, or early in
June, in an early moved clover field. The
drills should be about thirty inches
apart, and the beans about three Cover
not more than two inches deep.
1t Is well to observe caution in chang
ing cattle from dry feed to full pasture.
The safe way is to feed on the usual dry
fodder before turning out; bring up the
stock early in the afternoon, and feed
again on dry feed with roots. Another

AT Lake Charles, Louisiana, recently,
several lads were bathing, when an alli-
gator put in an appearance. One of
them not perceiving the approach of the
saurian, dived, and just as he reached
the surface the open jaws received him.
The alligator drove his teeth almost
through the boys skull, making several
wounds in the scalp, three inches in
length. The boys comrades rushed into
the water and began loud outcry, when
the alligator let go his hold and disap-
peared The little fellow, although
seriously injured, will probably live.

Amusements of a Bolt of Lightning

At Simsbury, Connecticut, during
storm, the lightning struck pine tree
about four hundred feet west of the
summer residence of George D. Phelps,
and standing about two feet from the
corner of his line fence. The bolt struck
the north branch of the tree, passing
once around it before it reached the
fork, where it divided into three parts
The south division left the tree at about
the height of the fence, which for the
first five lengths was completely de-
molished, the lightning shivering the
pickets and both top and bottom railings
into thousands of pieces, and literally
strewing the ground with them, throw
ing many pieces several rods away on
either side. The succeeding twelve
lengths were but little injured, the top
rail being untouched. The bottom rail
of the next three lengths was entirely
split to pieces. One of these was split
into handsome basket stuff, showing the
appearance of having been tied up and
the string accidently broken, leaving the
pieces to fall easily to their position.
The bolt here took a diagonal course of
about ten feet, passing under another
picket fence, killing six chickens there
sheltered, thence following foot-path
nearly parallel with the fence, plowing
a furrow in the path about two inches
deep and about half as wide, completely
spattering with dirt all objects within a
radius of ten feet and completely sever.
ing a one-and-a-half inch water hose
throwing the cut ends three or four feet
from the path. This path it followed to
within eleven feet of the Methodist
parsonage, where it passed into the
ground, making hole seven inches in
diameter and sixteen inches deep. The
clergyman's wife and mother, standing
at one window, and two children al
another, looking in the direction of the
bolt, and about thirty feet from it when
it passed into the ground, felt the shock
distinctly, as also did the clergyman
who was sitting in an adjoining room
After leaving the fence it pierced the
leaves of some shrubbery in its path
with innumerable small holes, as OF
medium-sized needles.

CONSTIPATION!

trifiing ailment-in fact nature
demands the utmost regularity of
the bowels, and any deviation
from this demand paves the way
often to serious danger. 1t is quite
as necessary to remove impure ac-
cumulations from the bowels as it
is to eat or sleep, and no health
can be expected where q costive
habit of body prevails.
