and there was only one vacant seat, and

He said, q Yes, Mr. Cough, will be very
glad to have you" Thank you, sir, for
your courtesy.'' He said, II heard you
speak last night, and went home to my
wife and told her l would drink no more
liquor. l never made a promise like that
before. / am a man of my word, and she
knew meant it, and supposed she would
be tickled about it and pleased, but In
stead of that she looked at me in half
wild sort of q way, and burst out crying,
and then went down on her knees. am

her down on her knees l didn't like it,

my word to Nun or woman, and am
proud of the fact" We went on little
while and his eyes began to fill with tears.
He said: "Mr. Cough, you may think it
very strange of me, but l have been on
my knees myself this morning for over
an hour" Have youp' Yes, Ihave,

sense to talk about prayer gauges and
such stuff, but do you believe man ever
drank glass of liquor while he was pray

Then there is philosophy in prayer, if
nothing else. Let man keep in the at
titude of prayer, and then he is in the
attitude OF resistance to drink.-J0hn B.

The Final victory Sure.

WHY should we be afraid? No aDato-
my of speculation can alter the nature of
man; no criticism can turn history into
fable; no science or wit of man-none but
Christ can satisfy souls thirsting for the
living God. For awhile these troubling
activities may prevail Some, tired of the
ancient sun, and moon and stars, may long
for new lights; some, casting off specific
Christian views, may step back toward old
pagan philosophy, and deem it progress,
and call the baroness wealth; many nov
elites may spring up to divert and mislead
the unwary, but fashions of thought, like
other fashions, soon pass away, and times
of scepticism bring about the reaction of
faith.
Why fear? Is it not sort of the mys.
terry of His way-the divine policy OF
which the cross is the sublime example
that He always triumphs even when He
seems to fall He rises out of suffering and
death more powerful than before; and
gains wider influence, brighter luster,
from all that is done to injure His name!
Greater changes may occur; the powers
Of Heaven may be shaken and the noun
tains be removed; it may look, to the eye
of men, as if ruin were coming on the
loosened winds; but as we stand in the
present, covering while we hear the birds
Of prey Tapping their wings and scream
ing with premature joy, as If about TO
feast on the body of Christianity; or timid,
as We cast a glance toward the dubious
future, there rises the figure of our Lord
in calm majesty, who sits Is King upon
the floods, and master of all the wild forces
that are abroad, and His quiet voice is
heard saying to us out of His peaceful
greatness: Children, let not your heart
be troubled. neither let it be afraid"
No; o Lord, we will not fear, for Thou
art with us and greater than all. With
Him is the burden of empire and the H.
sues of the war: with us is the service of
obedient love. 1t is His to see that the
purposes do not fail: it is ours to 20 forth
without worry to our labor from morning
till evening. We have only this one thing
to do-to mind our spirit and our work.
Let US renew our strength and refresh our
selves once more for toll by the sight OF
Him. 30 come, magnify the Lord with
me, and let us exalt His name together
Let us rejoice in hope, for, lol in the dis
lance we see allthe people praising Him,
and the whole earth filed with His glory. .

Computing Dressed Weight.

A few years since the following rule fol
computing the dressed weight by measure.
ment OF cattle, hogs and sheep, went the
rounds OF the papers, viz:
Ascertain the girth in inches back OF
the shoulders, and the length in inches
from the straight or square of the bullock
Multiply the girth by the length and di-
vide the product by ia for the superficial
feet, and then multiply the superficial feet
by one of the following nun bers, for AMI.
mails of different girths. and the product
will be the number of pounds of beef
pork or mutton in the four quarters of the
animal.
For cattle of girth from five to seven
superficial foot; of a girth from seven to
nine feet, allow thirty one pounds; of a
girth of three to five feet, allow sixteen
pounds. For sheep, hogs, pigs or calves,
ETC., measuring less than three feet girth,
allow eleven pounds to the superficial
foot"
This, like many ether items in the
papers, was probably read and then for
gotten; but the near approach to accuracy
of this rule is such as to entitle it to the
especial consideration of persons who are
in the habit of selling animals on foot, or
of those who purchase in the same way
for by measurement of the animal and a
calculation by the above rule, a very near
approximation to correctness is obtained.
We have tested the rule and give results
as obtained as an evidence of the correct
ness of the rule:
1. Measurement of OK: length 4 #. II

59-4838; divided by 144-33 8 superficial

2. Measurement Of steer: length fl

1916; divided by 144-206 superficial
feet; 20.6x23-474, the computed pounds

pounds.
3. Measurement of heifer: length it..
Z in.-43 in; girtli #. in.-65 in; 65x
43-2795; divided by 144-19 A superficial
feet; 19.4x23-446, the computed pounds /;
the actual weight was $50 pounds.
4. Measurement of COW: length fl. 5
in.-53 in; gilth 4 it. in.-56 in; SIX
56-296S; divided by 144-20.5; the girth
being so near five feet the multiplier %
was used; 2O.5x23-471.5, the computed
pounds; the actual weight was 40
pounds.
Without giving further measurements
we give three other results:
Measurement weight of heifcr, 404
pounds; actual weight, 406pounds. Meas
urement weightof pig, 225 pounds; actual
weight, 229 pounds. Another pig, meas
ured weight, 205 pounds; actual weight,
1881 pounds. This shows the rule to be
worthy the farmers use.-Oht0 Farmer.

helm the farmer's uurse. It il the profit
that he makes above the cost OF produc-
ton. Farmers have dome to much work
which esve no profit within tbe last i've
or six wears. Il Is this which makes the
country poor to-day.
There has not been money enough made
the last year to warrant speculative move
ments OF any kind. It is not safe to put
our little spare cash into any one enter
prise. II il fails, we are as badly of as
before, and must founder about in the
slough of hard times till Providence
sends another good season, with good crops
and prices TO help us out.
Try 70 do little in the way of i'm
provement in as many directions and at
IS slight an expense as possible. During
the past few years we have all seen
chances where trifling outlay in money
would have surely brought largely IN
creased crops. We have RETAINED, be-
cause the t-ifling amount of money could
not be easily spared. Now that you have
the cash, use It where it will bring the
speediest return. Perhaps it is short
underdrain that is needed to relieve sur
plus water from an otherwise rich field.
Do it at once; but leave your poorer land,
or that which demands heavy outlay, till
you find that there are not other uses
which will pay better return. Try the
commercial fertilizer-sparingly at first,
till you find those adapted to your soil.
When you get fertilizer that will repay
twice its cost in the first crop, you may
use it as freely as if some one made you
present of it. You get 100 per cent. over
and above the cost within twelve months
after purchasing.
Improve the breeds of your cattle, sheep
and hogs.
Above all, make your homes beautiful
and pleasant, the centers of all that can
please the eye and crafty a refined taste.
Fill your grounds with flowers and fruits.
The life is more than meat and the body
more than raiment. As we can live only
once, we owe to ourselves to get as much
rational enjoyment from life as possible.
Some spare money spent thus, will surely
be profitably used. 1t is not any mans
or woman's right-saying nothing of duty
Ito live for money getting. We like to
see people making money because they
can do SO much with it; more now, when
everything is so cheap, than ever before.
If you have SO little money that you can
only spare enough to buy peach or pear
tree or grapevine. buy those. They will
grow while you are sleeping, and will, ere
you know it, repay many fold the tri1ing
cost. which is required, during the grow
ing season, to render them healthy and
fruitful. -Rural NeU Yorker.

What Next en- the Farms

The close OF harvest, 80 far as the small
grains are concerned, by no means ends
the farm work for the year. 1t does,
however, give breathing spell after the
hurry, in which farmers may pr0fitably
ask themselves, "What nextf" This is
really the beginning of the new agricult-
ural year, for on the amount of wheat and
winter grains sown next month, will de-
pend the farming operations of 1878.
Through most of the country east of the
Pacific Slope, there has been good
wheat crop. The European war assures
good prices, and there is a strong tempt
alton to SOW more wheat than for several
years past; everywhere We hear Of prepara-
lions tothisend. Thedanger is, that much
of this increased acreage will be poorly
prepared, and that the resultant crop will
be made at loss. The lack of money 70
make farm Improvements is responsible
for the greater part Of the failure in agri-
cultural progress. To lose money on q
crop, especially 20 important crop ~
wheat, means business depression and the
stagnation of industry for the whole
country. 1t means the frittering away Of
advantages won by the hard and success
ful toll Of the past year advantages
which, properly used, might place the
business of the country on the high road I
to returning prosperity. There Is little
doubt that In most sections farmers will
make some money this year. It Is inn
portant 10 almost everybody, as we'll - %
themselves, thai they should use this
money wisely that is, IN the way TO make
itproduce Is much more = p0Gsible. Thus

The Fortunes Of a Street Arab.

Every old resident of Kansas City re-
members " Limpey," the pale-faced,
emaciated little vagaboni of two or three
years ago. Four years ago Limpey"
slept in hay-lofts, in cellars and empty
freight cars, and when he was not out
on the lay" either BACKED boots or begged
for food. "Limpey" was under the ban
of the police in this city, and had it not
been for his crippled condition and con-
sumptive appearance he would have been
sent to the Work House as a vagrant.
While be was resident in this city he
was great pest to the police, as lie was
the leader of most incorrigible gang of
young hoodlums, who infested the fall
fairs in the West and defied the detection
of detectives or the efforts of the police to
break up their gang.
"Limpey' went away in June, 1876.
and was lost to sight and memory both
until yesterday when hereappeared among
his old acquaintance man among men,
and married to the girl of his choice.
Limpey," or, as he now styles himself,
Dennis Garrigban, came to this city
among party Of little boys from the House
of Refuge in New York, aud was dis
tributed with the rest to those who desired
to adopt children. Limpey," being
thin and lame, met with poor treatment,
and was soon again wait upon the streets.
In June, 1876, Llmpey' MADE ms way

About Mules.

didn't take into the ark with him. Rave
looked over the freight list carefully, and
could not see mule way billed for any
place. s clear headed man as Noah
did not dare TO take one on board, as he
knew he would kick hole through her
in less than week. don't know man
on whose head you could pour quicksilver
and run less risk of its splitting off than on
Noah's. He was dreadful level headed
man, and before the freshet was over
everybody on earth realized the fact.
The origin of the mule is enveloped in
good deal OF mystery. Tradition in
forms us tina. when the flood had subsi-
ded and the ark had landed on Mount
Ararat, Noah was very much surprised in
one Of his first observations to find good
healthy mule standing on the top of an
adjoining mountain. The same tradition
informs us that the mule is the only ami
NAL that lived through the flood outside
of the ark
The mule can be considered in good
many ways, though the worst place from
which to consider him is directly from
behind, anywhere within radius of ten
feet never consider mule from that
point, unless am looking out through
the 1ue of boiler.
Sea captains and people who have to do
with mules always pay an extra rate to
life insurance companies. A mule and a
belt of country where yellow. fever is in.
digenous generally stand the same as re-
CARDS the death rate.
The mule has one more leg than milk
ing stool, and he can stand on one and
wave the other three round in as many
different directions. He has only three
senses, hearing, seeing and smelling. He
has no more sense of taste than q stone
jug, and will eat anything that contains
nutriment, and he don't care two cents
whether it be per cent. or 80. All he
asks is to pass him along his plate, with
whatever happens to be handy round the
pantry, and he don't go away and blow
how poor the steak is. He just eats
whatever is set before him, and asks no
questions.
Mules are naturally deaf, but that SUI
preme wisdom that teaches the little boy
to wipe his nose on his sleeve has fitted
the mule out with pair of ears that coun-
teracts its deafness, so he can hear as
readily as person when you don't want
him to. These ears answer double pur-
pose: rs tunnels to pour sound into his
ears, aud also as fans to brush away the
flies with and keep his head cool. They
are hung by hinges to the sides OF his
head, and flap backward and forward like
a pair of wet trousers round boys legs.
In cold latitudes quite tasty business is
done in mules ears. The ears are cut off
and dried, and sold for snow-shoes, and
then the stubbs are trimmed up and the
mules are sent South and sold for horses.
