FORESTS Self Education.

A. the age Of twenty -one, when al
most any head would have been turned
By the adulatIon which greeted him.
aud the sudden wealth which poured in
upon him, he transformed himself into
an art-student. Years ago we have
seen a classical dictionary among the
few books with which he started IN life.
1t came there because of hint given
him bv a kind friend of Philadelphis.
In front of one of the theatres there
we're wooden statues CT Thalia and Mel
pomene. Who are Thalleay and Mel
pomeen:" inquired Forrest of one of
his boy comrades II donnO, said the
boy, A gentleman passing by, over
heard the question and answer, took
Forrest by the hand, explained to him
Whist Thalia and Melpomene were, and
how TO pronounce their names, and ad-
vised him to purchase the book to which
we have referred. When the theatre
was torn down, Forrest bought the two
statutes in memory of this incident; but
it had borne better fruit before.
Brought into association with Bryant,
Leggett, Wetmore, Halleck, Inman, In
graham. Dunlap, and Lawson in New
York, be proti,ed by their conversation;
he bought books literally, and read
them faithfully; he studied statuary
and paintings. and grew curious to cos
tunes. Beginning to speak and think
of acting as An art, and surrounded by
those who 40 regarded it. Forrest was
an art student. and in fair way to ma
ture into an artist.

An Independent Farmer.

The following is the experience of a
thorough farmer. one who farms to
proht. He says. II have fsrmed for
thirty years, aud always had large
family, and kept large stock, but |
never yet bought bnshel of corn, ex-
cept for seed, and but one barrel Of
flour Possibly at some times | would
have made money by doing so. but you
see when fall comes have forty bush
els Of wheat in my bins and two hun
dred bushels Of corn in my corn barn.
and then haven't got to keep looking
around all winter to see where am
going to get the money to pay my meal
and -four bills with and, furthermore,
| feel better to be independent. l can
show you ncighbor who thinks he
can't afford to raise wheat or corn. and
who has not now a bushel of either
He will tell you that he raised other
crops in place of them, but before he
gets through will probably groan over
the war in Europe, which has lifted the
price Of grain; and | doubt nightly
whether he don't owe at the store for
all the -four his family has eaten this
winter; and | know he hasn't wintered
any hogs, because he raised no corn and
couldn't afford to buy tell you this
talk about farmers can't afford to raise
corn and wheat. pork and beef, is very
much like mans talking that he had
better DO nothing than work for seven
ty-fve cents day. 1t amounts to the
same thing can have patience with
a man who argues that we cannot
raise grain to sell, but one who says he
can't afford to raise it to eat set down
as shiftless fellow. whose farm will
shortly be owned by somebody else. "
There Is much solid sense in this talk.
A farmer, of course, should figure to
make his crops pay, and there are some
who are engaged in specialties who can
make money by buying their grain, but
the corner stone of farming in times
like these is its Independence; its GER
tainty to give man enough to eat anj
drink and wear; and he who plans his
operations with this view is quite as
likely to make something in addition
rs any body. The farmer who raises Il
years stock of corn and wheat and po-
tatoes, which includes also stock of
beef, pork, butter and poultry, is sure
of having enough to eat next winter,
and he who don't raise them is not sure
of it, The one is independent. There
may be European wars, hard times,
bankruptcy and ruiz generally, but you
can't starve HIM out. The other Is de-
pendent on the market. on all sorts Of
things and contingencies.

Gossip About the Tilton Family,

Theodore Tilton's recent departure
tor Europe was due to considerations
for both the health and talents of his
daughter Alice, who has just attained
her sixteenth year. During his last trip
he Travelled 10000 miles, and earned
$4,000. This achieved, he had no
thought of going to Europe, but on his
arrival in Brooklyn he was informed by
his daughter Alice, who had been stop
ping at the residence of the Reverend
Richard :. Storr's, that her health re-
Quired change OF scene. 1t ia said
that this young girl recently bad her
first comprehension of the nature of the
troubles of her faslily, and that it
seriously affected he..
In addition to this, Mr. Tilton dis
covered that she possessed undoubted
genius for sketching and what is called
decorative art. and after n consultation
with experts he determined to take her
to Munich and place her with one of
the best masters.
Her sister. Florence, who is three
years older, went To take care of her
She is distinguished and womanly
girl, and has shown some ability as a
writer
There is absolutely no truth in the
report of n quarrel between Tilton and
Moulton. Theodore has followed the
latter's example in quitting Brooklyn
for good. and there is no proba bility
that he will ever resume his residence
there. Mrs, Tilton is very contented,
and, as some one expressed it, is mot
only happy as a bird, but lives like a
queen" Certain it is that, from never
having worn other than natural tints
in clothing and abstained from lewelry.

The Old Sexton.

He WAS a singularly grave man, even
for sexton. For nearly half CEN
tury he had been public functionary
had performed the conspicuous duties
Of sexton; yet no one had ever seen
him smile Occasionally he joked, hut
he did i, in such funeral manner that
no one could accuse him of levity.
One day he was standing on the
church steps. wiping his melancholy
features with a red bandana. A hearse
stood near and three OF four carriages
we're drawn up behind it. The notes
of the organ floa,ed out Of the windows
with solemn effect. A stranger came
along and said:
"Fu:leral 7"
And the old sexton graveiy bowed
his head-it was.
Who's dead Z"
The old man again wiped his brow
and gave the name of the deceased.
What complaint 7" asked the in-
inquisitiys stranger.
Solemnly placing his bandana 10
his hat and covering his bald head. the
old sexton made answer;
"There is no complaint; everybody
is entirely satisfied"
