''CoULDN'T LIE FOR THAT MONEY. y
A story is told of young Waterville, Me-,
lawyer, who was Of convivial turn, who had
in his hands number of unsettled &C
counts against an old farmer in the vicini-
ty, who never paid any debts until he was
sued, and then only after loud outcries
against the lawyers for grinding the faces
Of the poor.'' One day he came in to set
tie bill, when the lawyer offered to dis
count him a dollar and half if he would
go into the street, mingle with all the
groups of people whom he might meet and
lead the conversation up to point where
he could incidentally remark that he (the
lawyer) was a sharp and worthy fellow
The old man wanted the money, but final
ly he said impressively: esquire I'm a
very old man and have done many wicked
things in my life but with my views of
eternity can't lie like that for money"
The dollar and half was discounted
without extorting any reoompense there
for.

LIARS AND HYPoCRITEs.-"The false
hood that the tongue commits" said Lam
dor, lis slight in comparison with what is
conceived by the heart, and executed by
the whole man, throughout life. If, pro-
Tossing love and charity to the human race
at large, quarrel day after day with my
next neighbor; if, protesting that the rich
can never see God, spend in the Injuries
OF my household q talent monthly if, pro-
Tossing to place so much confidence in His
word, that, in regard to worldly veal, I
need take no care for tomorrow, 1 accu-
mulate stores even beyond what would be
necessary, as though quite distrusted both
His providence and His veracity; if, pro-
Tossing that He who giveth TO the poor
lendeth to the Lord question the Lord s
security, and haggle with Him about the

THE RUSSIAN SOLDIERS are said to live
and fight almost wholly upon tea. The
Cossacks often carry it about in the shape
of bricks, or rather tiles, which, before
hardening, are soaked IN sleeps blood and
boiled in milk, with the addition of flour,
butter, and salt, so as to constitute kind
of soup. The passion of the Russian for
this beverage is simply astonishing. In the
depth of winter, lie will empty twenty cups
in succession, at nearly boiling point, I'M
til he perspires at every pore, and then, in
a state of intense excitement, rush out,
roll in the snow, get up, and go on to the
next similar place of entertainment. So
with the army. With every group or Cir
Gle of tents travels the invariable tea-caul-
dron, suspended from a tripod; and it
would be vain to think of computing how
many times each soldiers pannikin is filled
upon a halt. It is his first idea. Frequent
ly he carries it cold in copper case, as a
solace upon the march.

EGGs IN COLD WEATHER.-Soon the
very cold weather will be here, and many
of us will go out to the hen house to look
for eggs. How many shall we find? How
many of us will find any at all? l fear
many of us will look day after day and
week after week, and not find a single
egg. Now there is no need of this at all.
What is the reason of it? is because the
fowls do not have proper care. There are
three classes of articles, in which the
natural and indispensable diet Of fowls
consist-grains Or seeds, green plants, and
insects. Corn and wheat shorts should be
the main reliance to fill the first division.
Boiled potatoes and green cabbage in win
ter, and newly mown grass in summer, are
the most suitable vegetables, and chand-
lers' scraps and butchers waste, procured
fresh, are the most economical animal
food, excepting near the coast, where
clans and various Sorts Of fish can be pro-
cured at a trihing cost. But care should
be exercised not to feed too much of it.
While Deepen ding upon the above, because
they are the cheapest and best, many other
things should be given for the sake OF q
variety, such as oats, buckWheat, rye, bar
ley, wheat, etc., both whole and ground.
Now, try this the coming winter, and if
you do not have plenty of eggs, then my
experience does not amount to anything
at all.
