Iron Ships.

1t is admitted by naval officers and
navigators that iron vessels affect the
ships compass. To this is attributed
the loss of the U. S. steamer Huron.
She was sailing under steam, and with
one or two sails set. The vessel was
moving along, and as the officers sup
posed, safely, though a storm was
raging. According to her compass, she
was in deep ..ater. But the iron of
which the vessels hull was made, had
attracted the pointer of the compass,
and the vessel was actually a consider
bile distance south of the point where
her officers supposed she was safely
sailing. She struck upon a hard bot
tom, where the surf was running
wildly, and a hundred lives were lost.
With such results on record, it will be
necessary for navigators to guard
against similar accidents. Proper tests
will be applied, and in storms snch
precautions will be observed as to pre-
vent calamities of the character which
overlook the Huron. Such tests, we
believe, are understood. How far they
are to be relied upon as accurate, may
be questionable. Butas navies are now
so largely made up of iron, in one way
or another, it becomes nayigators to
thoroughly investigate the danger of
variations in the compass.

Browns NatrimonIaI Nethod.

Brown, | don't see how it is that
your girls always marry off as soon as
they get old enough, while none Of mine
can marry.
,'0h. that is easy enough. Imarry
my girls off on the buckwheat straw
principle"
''But what is that principle! never
heard or it before"
"Well | used to raise good deal of
buekwheat, and it puzzled me to know
how to get rid of the straw. Nothing
would eat it, and it was great bother
to me. At last | thought of plan. l
stacked my buckwheat straw nicely
and built nice high rail fence around
it. Ny cattle, of course, concluded
that it was something good, and at once
tore down the fence and began to eat
the straw. logged them away and
put up the fence few times, but the
more | drove them away the more
anxious they became to eat the straw.
After this had been repeated few
times the cattle determined to eat the
straw and eat it they did, every bit of
it. As SAID, marry my girls off on
the same principle. When young
man hNtA ilhC NefAAAhS VII my
girls, encourage him in every way
can. tell him TO come often and stay
as late as he pleases, and take pains
to hint to the girls that l think
they'd better set their caps for
him. 1t works first-rate. He
don't make many calls, for the
girls treat him as coolly as they
can. But when a young fellow that
like comes around, a man that think
would suit me for son-in-law, / don't
let him make many calls before l give
him to understand that he isn's want
ed around my house. l tell the girls,
too, that they shall have nothing to do
with him, and give them orders never
to speak to him again. The plan al
ways works fiTst-rate. TLeyoung folks
begin to pity each other, and the first
thing I know they are engaged to be
married. When / see they are deter
mined to marry, always give in, and
pretend to make the best of it. That's
the way manage it.

Noon Madness.

The popular belief that the moons
rays will cause madness in any person
who sleeps exposed to them has long
been felt to be absurd, and yet it has
appeared TO have its source in I'M
doubted facts. Some deleterious in
fuence is experienced by those who
rashly court slImber in full moon
shine, and probable there is no SUI
perstitiOn to which the well-to-do pay
more attention. Windows are often
carefully covered to keep the moon
beams from entering sleeping-rOOms.
A gentleman living in India furnishes
Nature with an explanation Of
this phenomenon which is at least
plausible. He says: at has often
been observed that when the moon is
full, or near its full time, there are
rarely any clouds about and if there
be clouds before the full moon rises,
they are soon dissipated and there
fore perfect clear sky with a bright
full moon, is frequently observed. A
clear sky admits of rapid radiation of
heat from the surface of the earth,
and any person exposed to such radia-
ton is sure TO be chilled by rapid loss
of heat. There is reason to believe
that, under the circumstances, paraly-
sis of one side of the face IS some
times likely to occur from a chill, as
one side of the face is more likely to
be exposed to rapid radiation, and con-
sequent loss of its heat. This chill is
more likely TO occur when the sky is
perfectly clear. [ have often slept in
the open air IN India, on a clear sum-
mer night, when there was no moon
and although the first part of the
night may have been hot, yet toward
two or three o'clock in the morning,
the chill has been so great that have
often been awakened by an ache in
my forehead. which | as often have
cOunteracted by wrapping a handker-
chief round my head, and drawing the
blanket over my face. As the chill is
likely to be greatest on very clear
night, and the clearest nights are
likely to be those on which there iS-a
bright moOnshine, it is very possible
that neuralgia, paralysis or other SIM
liar injury, caused 10y sleeping in the
open air, has been attributed to the
moon, when the proximate cause may
really have been the chill, and the
moon only a remote cause acting by
dissipating the clouds and haze IF it
do sol, and leaving a perfectly clear
sky for the play of radiation into
space"

Great Wealth a Great Mockery.

If you are ever tempted to purchase
a very large pear, decline the invest
ment or reckon upon a disappointment.
You will probably find it woody, al
most tasteless, and more like a turnip
than a pear. We know, for we have
the experiment in the land where
the gigantic pears are grown. Over
grown fruits never seem to us to have
the delicate sweetness which may be
found in those of the usual dimen-
siOns. What is gained in quantity is
more than lost in quality. In the
same manner great wealth, great
honor and great rank generally turn
out TO be great shams. Beside the
cOunteracting influences of great care
and great temptation, there is the in
eyitable safety in too much of any
thing, which soon renders it tasteless.
For sweetness prefer competence to
enormous fortune, the esteem of a few
TO the homage of a multitude, and q
quiet condition to 4 position of emf
hence and splendOr. There is more
flavor in enough than in too much.
SOlomOn's proverb bids us prefer the
dinner of herbs eaten i'm peace to the
stalled OK consumed amid contention
and his remark is the more practical
when We consider how often the fat OK
seems of necessity to involve cOnten-
ton. while the herbs are not thought
to be worth lighting over. lie chose
wisely who said : s'Give me neither
poverty nor riches" He took the
smaller and the sweeter pear. After
all, it is better to have no choice. but
leave it all with our Heavenly Father.

Useful Recipes.

Extracting GreaSe.-If a silk or cot.
ton dress has been stained with grease,
a very excellent method of removing
the spots, without taking out the color,
isto CRATE raw potatoes to apulp.i clear
water, and pass the liquid through
a coarse sieve into another vessel of
water. Let the mixture stand till the
fine white particles have fallen to the
bottom then pour the liquor off clear !;
and bottle Il for use. Dip a sponge in
the liquor and apply it to the spot till
it disappears; then wash it in clean
water several times. Two medium
sized potatoes win be enough for a
pint of water. Be very careful not to
wet more of the dress than is neces-
sary, as some delicate eolors viii look
marked even with clear water.
4 Good Cement.-Pound burnt
oyster-shells, sift the powder through
very fine sieve, and grind it on a
stone slab till reduced to the finest
powder; then take the whites Of two
eggs according to the quantity of
powder), beat them well, and having
mixed them with the powder, form
the whole into kind of p,lste. With
the paste join the pieces of glass OF

How q Pig Became a Horse.

A lady, who had several grown sons
and daughters, told me that when her
lirst-bOrn was very young baby a gen.
tleman gave him half dollar. She
told her husband that she would, with
that, provide the little fellow horse
to ride by the time he was twenty-one
years of age.
With the half-dollar she bought
pig. She fed the pig with such scraps,
etc, from tine kitchen as would other
wise have been thrown away, for she
had determined that he. husband
should not incur any expense in the
plan which she had adopted to get the
horse. in about twelve months, when
the pig had become large enough to be
fattened for pork, sac bought eight
bushels of corn, promising the neigh
Dor of whom she bought it that she
would pay him when she had killed
and sold the hog. So in few months,
the animal had reached such a size
that he brought about fourteen dol
lars.
With part of this fourteen dollars
she bought calf, using the balance
of the money to pay her husband
all expenses of keeping the calf, ex-
cept the grass which it ate in the
fields.
In the course of two or three years
the calf had grown so well that it
brought thirty-fve dollars.
This amount, after paying all ex-
penses not heretofore paid, was quite
sufficient for the purchase of a colt,
almost ready to be put under the sad
die; and by the time her little boy
was six years old his horse was ready
for him. but he was not quite large
enough to take ride.
Some of our young readers can act
on this hint for themselves. A ten
year-old farmer-bOy, may il he will,
