Two TERRIBLE FRIFNDS.-They tell good
story ON one Of the boys who lives at Miner
al Hill, and who happendrd to arrive in
town during the progress of the late in
auguration ball. His social instincts
prompted him to attend, but his attire was
not quite up to the mark, and he applied to
friend for the loan OF the necessary articles
of apparel. The friend consented with some
reluctance, and, arrayed in borrowed plumes.
our hero engaged in the festivities. The
owner of the garments watched him as he
threaded the may dance, and after it was
over, and he had ensconced himself in seat
by the side of Il fair charmer, approached
him and broke loose with the following re-
mark "Sec here, D, them pants is new,
and wish you wouldn set down and make
knees in them" d came very near
fainting with modification, and abruptly
left the ball, followed by II sympatizing
friend who had overheard the remark and
felt sorry for his embarrassment. D
stripped oil those pants, and, after much
solicitation, accepted the loan OF another
pair from his new-iound friend, and, after
some hesitation, returned to the ballroom
and soon forgot his troubles in the smiles OF
the company of the fair dancers. polka

the belle of the evening, skipping and hop
ping as gracefully aS that exhiirating dance
would permit, until, out of breath. he
promenaded, with HIS fair partner on his
brceches, who had been looking on in evI-
dent delight at the abandon Of the wearer.
and as he came by him he gave vent to his
pleasure by slnpping D On the back and
cxcaiming "Go it, old fellor; burst h-ll

WHY, tell me. what's the matter Jones,

What mean those deep sepulchral groans,
The warm tears scarcely driedf
What matter see my Mary there!

She snatched handful OF my hair,
And sent me of TO Rome
| quoted Scripture to her, but
She Lifted up her chm,
"old Pard and you had better strut
Alas, how taken in
Have you Dictionary Jones'
Pray, what does Mary mean
An honest man his folly owns,
Albeit he is green.
II you had read that blessed book,
You hight have Stunned the trap.
Nor lard your head. with trnst!ul look,
In MAry's treacherous lap
The only way to live in peace,
And keep from being gGmr.
Just let her have her way, and cease
Authority to claim.
Confess your idle csrelessness,
Yourself alone to blame,
Your heart she will not fail to bless
Though loyal to her name.
But should you lord II over her,
Her eyes are not a doues,
Command, she will not deign to stir,
No matter how she loves.
And, Jones, it's better after all,
To have a wife who knows,
Wherein she differs from thrall,
Yet sweet alleg iance owes.

Two years ago had fine lot of Hubbard

pati.g an abundant yield, when suddenly
observed here and there patches in which the
leaves began to turn yellow and then brown,
and on examination, l found them covered
with this most annoying pest. Immediate
ly began trying plaster, then ashes, then gas
lime, but to no purpose. They were too nu-
merous and the vines too luxuriant to at
tempt their destruction 10y hand. | was about
giving up the battle, when it occurred to me
that / would try what virtue there was in
kerosene. took a pan of ashes s(holding
perhaps quarts), and seizing the lamp-fller,
| poured on enough OF that fluid to moisten
the ashes and fill them with strong per-
fume, but not TO convert them into paste. 1
threw several handsful into each spot where
the enemy was at work. OF course | watch

a day or two | observed that there was no
increase of the leprous blotches in the squash
bed. | made careful inspection and found
that the miscreants had retreated. After

In the expectation that the Colorado beetle
will prove very troublesome the coming year,
the Board of Agriculture gives the following
advice on potato culture: Plant early. Use
new ground, or that not occupied for pota-
toes last year. Select, if possible, lots re-
mote from that ordinarily chosen, and shield
ed by woods III some measure. Make the
soil as rich is safe for the Equality, SO as to
obtain good crop from small area. Then
fight the enemy by hand and hoe, by Paris
green and every other effective agency that
can be obtained. Professor Riley says that
the beetle has, at least, twenty-three enemies,
not including man. 1t ought to he exter-
minated at once. A new potato enemy has
made its appearance. known as the potato
moth. The caterpillar burrows in the tuber
and destroys It. Ii is not likely the creature
will be here at present.

lIydrUphObla,

IIydrophobia has been known for 5000
years, vet its cause il still matter OF spec
ulation. 1t does not originate from heat,
for dogs in the warmest climates, such rs
South Africa, Jamaica, West Indies, and
South America, have never been affected
by it. Want Of water does not produce it,
since dogs have been kept 40 days without
water and not gone mad, Insufficient and
anwholesome diet are not the causes. since
the ours of Madeira are the vilest and most
ill-kept of the world, and rabies are un-
known among them. Whether it IL a spon-
taneous production in the dog, eat and wolf
is also unsettled. The fact that in remote
countries of the world, where the disease
has never been communicated, its existence
is unknown, would imply that it must be
acquired by communication. yet Marray, an
eminent writer on the subject, and Others
believe the contrary. Of the real nature of
the virus little is known. 1t has never been
analyzed. Though rabies in men is in most
cases communicated by the bite of dog, yet
the symptoms are widely different. Man
abhors and detests water with spasm0dlc
loathing, while the dog searches for it and
drinks with avidity. The statistics and cx-
periments in hydrophobia re suggestive and
interesting. lnoculation of saliva of rabid
animals as practiced by Herbert llertwig,
succeeded in only % per sent. of the ami
mails operated upon, - escaping. Accord
ing to Faber's statistics, out of li5 persons
bitten by rabid animals in Wurtcmburgh,
only % had hydrophobin. John Hunter
records case where, of II persons bitten
by mad dog, only one was affected. Again
We have Of lIi persons bitten by mad wolves,
G7ior more tthan onc-half fell victims. In
France, in 1852, II commission was appoint
ed to look into the subject of rabies, and of
1876 eases in human subjects, lO5 were from
the bites OF dogs, ~ from the bites OF wolves,
from tho bites of cats, and five unknown.
In 90 cases, where the exact date oi the ap-
pearanco OF hydrophobia after the bite was
ascertained. it seems that eases were iziai
after the first month after the bite. ! eases
from the end of the first month to the end
of the third. & from beginning OF fourth To
end of sixth, and from seventh to end oi
