VULGAR WoRDs.-A distinguished
author says, II resolved, when was q
child, never to use word which I could
not pronounce before my mother with
out offending her." He kept his reso-
luton, and became pure minded, no.
BILE, honored gentleman. His rule and
example are worthy Of imitation.
Boys readily learn class of low, vul-
gar words and expressions, which are
never heard in respectable circles. The
utmost care on the part of parents will
scarcely prevent it. OF course we can.
not think of girls being SO much exposed
to the peril. We cannot imagine de-
cent girls using words she would not
give utterance to before her father or
mother.
Such vulgarity il thought by some
boys to be Smart" the "next thing to
swearing" and yet mot so wicked. .h-
But it is habit which leads to profanity,
and fills the mind with evil thoughts
1t vulgarizes and degrades the soul, and
prepares the way for many of the gross
and fearful sins which now corrupt So
ciety.
! Young reader! keep your mouth free
from all impurity, and your tongue
from evil" for Tout of the abundance
of the heart the mouth speaketh. -

To MAKE Cows GIVE MILK.-A
writer, who says that his COW gives all
the milk that is wanted in a family of
eight persons, and from which was
made 200 pounds of butter in the year,
gives the following as the treatment:
If you desire to get a large yield OF
rich milk, give your COW. three times
day, water slightly warm, slightly
sailed, in which bran has been stirred,
at the rate of one quart to two gallons
of water. You will find, if you have
not found this by daily practice, that
your cow will gain twenty five per cent
Immediately under the effect of it. She
will become SO attached to the diet as te
refuse to drink clear water unless very
thirsty, but this mess she will eat al
most any time and ask for more. The
amount of this is an ordinary water pai
full each time, morning, noon and night
Your animal will do her best at dis
counting the lacteal. Four hundred
pounds of butter is often obtained from
good stock, and instances are mentioned
where the yield was even at a higher fig

BEYOND JORDAN.

And they came to him, mothers Of Judah.
Dark eyed and In splendor Of hair,
Bearing down over shoulders of beauty,
And bosems half hidden, half bare.
And they brought him their babes and besought
him
Half kneeling, with suppliant air,
To bless the brown cherubs they brought him
With holy hands laid in their hair.
Then reaching his hands, he said lowly,
"Ofsuch is My Kingdom" and then .
Took the brown little babes in the holy
White hands of the Saviour of men.
Held them close to his breast and caressd
them,
Put his face down to theirs as in prayer,
Put their hands to his neck and so bless'd
them,
With baby hands hid in his hair

POE II R Y


From the New York Journal Of Commerce.
A correspondent asks us for the author Of tn,
oft-queted lines what is Time ?" and anothe
friend asks us to publish them If we find them
We answer that the lines were written by tn,
Rev. William Marsden. and are as follows:
WHAT Is TIMEs
asked an aged man. a man of cares,
Wrinkled, and curved, and white with hoary
hairs;
"Time is the warp of life," he said "Oh, tell
The young, the fair. the gay, to weave it ,celz p
1 asked the ancient venerable dead.
Sages who wrote, and warriors who bled;
From the cold grave hollow murmur flowed
"Time sowed the seed we reap in this abode p
asked dying sinner, eye the tide
Ofllfe had lett his veins: "Time!' he replied :
"I've lost it! All, the treasure :" and he died.
asked the golden sun, and silver spheres,
Those bright chronometers of days and years ;
They answered, "Time is but meteor glarer'
And bade us for eternity prepare.
I asked the Seasons, in their annual round,
Which beautify or desolate the ground;
And they replied (no oracle more wise,)
'"Tis Folly's blank, and Wisdom's highest
prize!'
l asked spirit lost but, oh, the shrek
That pierced my soul! shudder while speak /!
1t cried. "A particle! speck a mite
Of endless years, duration infiniter'-
CT things inanimate, my dial
Consulted. and it made me this reply:
'Fime is the season fair of living well,
The path of glory, or the path of hell.''
I asked my Bible; and methinks 1t said,
Time is the present hour-the past Is fled;
Live! live to-day tomorrow never yet
On any human being rose or set.''
I asked od Father Time hipsel, at last,
But in a moment he flew swiftly past;
His chariot was cloud, the viewless wind
His noiseless steeds, which left no trace behind
I asked the mighty Angel who shall stand,
Che foot on sea and one on solid land;
Il now declare, the mystery is DER
Time aoas," he cried, "but Time shall be no
more!"

oiclly.iS the great Sumac country OF the
world, and the Sumac of Virginia grow
ing along the Blue Ridge Range is said to
stand next in order of excellence. There
are Sumac mills in Georgetown and AL
exandria, but the same prices are not
paid here as at other mills in Virginia,
owing to the inferior quality of the ar
ticle which is produced in the country
around the city of Washington.
Sumac<is used in tanning kid and
calfskin, buckskin for gloves and all the
various kinds of light tanning. There
is very fine Sumac mill in Winchester,
owned by German Smith, with capac-
! ity OF four tons, and the connection be-
tween this mill and the gloves which go
into market from thai town may be
readily inferred.
Sumac is prepared for the mill in the
months Of July, August ard September
| The process is first to tS@sze Oil fha ar-
| ries and throw them away as of no
value, and then to place the gloved hand
near the ground and strip the stems and
naked stalk remaining. Cnly the green
leaves are used, the red ones being
worthless. The leaves thus stripped are
thrown on the ground for the action of
the sun, and if the weather is very
warm they must be stirred continually
until the leaves curl little and becom e
brownish. On no account must the Su-
mac get wet from either rain or dew, as
this would take the tannin, the real, ac-
| tive, chemical substance out of the leaves
and destroy the value of the article. In
| some cases where the Sumac is plucked
| late in the afternoon it is suffered to re-
main out of doors until another day.
| When removed from the field it must
be placed ia the shade in place capa-
Bile of ventilation. The best arrange
ment probably is to erect scaffolding
OF rails in barn or shed on which the
Sumac is placed; and while in this po-
sition it must be stirred up occasionally
to prevent undue warmth, as the gum
my substance of the leaves generates
heat, and when neglected may produce
combustion. When thoroughly dried
by this process it is placed in sacks,
which are furnished by the mill to
best method of sacking is to take piece
Of wood somewhat of the shape of a
spade and pack it by breaking the twigs
and leaves while pounding them in the
bag. 1t is capable of very solid packing,
as solid almost as earth itself. Ordina-
rily sack of Sumac will weigh about
80 pounds.
The prices paid at the mill for Sumac
vary from SO cents to S1.40 hundred
pounds according to the quality; that
is to say, from $40 to S2S ton. One
and third tons of Sumac as sacked will
produce when ground one ton, and the
ground article is quoted in the market
at from $62 to S12O ton.
This information is the result Of q
conversation with very intelligent
gentleman who is interested in farming
operations in Fauquier, and who is
about erecting a Sumac mill in that
cou nty. He called to see me upon q
wholly different topic, but having gath
cred these items transmit them in the
hope of interesting readers of the SPEC
TATOR in the subject. T. F. S.

ADVICE TO WARLIKE PEoPLE.-Mr.
Lincoln was one day during the war
called upon by woman, who. pushing
aside other visitors, made a very low
courtesy to the President, and, as grad
-ually rising, began, in loud voice =
"Mr. Lincoln, my grandfather fought in
the Revolutionary war, my father fought
in the war of 1872, I have brother now
fighting in the Federal army to put down
this wicked rebellion, and want COM
mission for my son." Mr.. Lincoln
looked up with asmile. "Why, ma'am,
you belong to fighting family. You
have done your share. Go home and
learn the arts of peace"
