Learn the Value Of Money.

A silver dollar represents a days work
of the laborer. If it is given to boy,
he has no idea of what 1t has cost, or of
what it is worth. He would be as likely
to give dollar as dime for top or any
other toy. But if the boy has learned
to earn his dimes and dollars by the
sweat of his face, he knows the differ
ence. Hard work is to him measure
of values that can never be rubbed out
of his mind Let him learn by expe-
rience that hundred dollars represents
q hundred weary days labor, and it seems
a great sum of money. A thousand dol
lars is great fortune, and ten thousand
is almost inconceivable, for it is far more
than he ever expects to possess. When
he has earned a dollar, he thinks twice
before he spends it. He wants to invest
it so as to get the full value of days
work for it. 1t is a great wrong to soci-
ETY. and to boy to bring him up to mans
estate without this knowledge. A fortune
at twenty-one, without it, is almost inev-
itably thrown away. With it, and lit
tie capital to start on, he will make his
own fortune better than anyone can make
it for him.-Hunts Merchants Nugdzine

How Oysters, ETC., Are Shipped.

In the shipping of oysters in the shell
great care is exercised in packing A
layer of oysters is placed in the barrel
with their mouths up. They are then
packed with sea- grass, which is very
porous and holds large quantities of sea
water, which provides partial nourish-
ment for them. Over this layer of oys-
tiers cornmeal is sprinkled. On the
corn-meal another layer of the oysters,
packed in the same manner, is placed,
and SO on until the barrel is filled. Bv
this arrangement the oyster can feed
| nearly as well as if he were on his bed
on the river or bay bottom. The grass
will hold its nourishment from month
to six weeks, sufficient time to make
the longest voyages. The extent of this
trade is difficult to estimate, as it is
wholly retail. No house abroad has yet
entered into the trade, receiving regular
consignmcnts from this port, but nego-
tlations are now pending to effect such
result. Caterers in London and Paris,
and American residents abroad, are large
consumers, and they order directly from
Baltimore, or indirectly through New
York. Only one attempt to plant
American oysters in foreign waters has
been made by capitalists of this city,
and that proved failure Some five
years ago, through the influence of the
Turkish Consul residing here, a number
of gentlemen were induced to try the ex-
pertinent. A vessel was loaded with
them, packed in the same manner as
they are on the PUNCHES which bring
them to market-that is, not packed at
all-and of course nearly all died on the
way. Satisfied with what they held to
be proof of the impossibility of trans
porting them these parties did not re-
peat the experiment. In the face of the
fact that oysters are being sent across
every day, which arrive in the best con-
dition, it would be ridiculous to deny the
feasibility of the project. Whether the
oysters will thrive in these waters is an
other question, only to be determined by
experiment.
Terrapin are shipped from this port
both alive and canned. When sent alive
they are packed in boxes or barrels,
without food, ice or any other accom-
paniments. Between the months of Sep
TENDER and March they do not eat any
thing, and this is the time during which
they are shipped. Those put up in cans
are boiled and then Theoretically sealed,
the same as other canned meats Those
sent abroad go exclusively to England
and France, where they are highly
priced. Soft crabs, fried and put up in
oil-cans, are quite largely sent to foreign
markets. In game the principal export
is canvas back ducks. A common way
of packing them is to tie them by the
feet around the edge of a circular basket.
This keeps the birds separated, and
leaves space in the center for ice, if
necessary. The basket of ducks is gen
orally placed in a refrigerator and frozen
before they are shipped. This method
of packing them has proved remarkably
successful. One dealer affirms tn at he
has not lost single basket in five years.

Some interesting secrets of the New
England shoe trade are divulged in re-
cent article in the Boston Commercial
Bulletin. 1t says; I" The ingenuity which
the manufacturers display, and the sue
cess they meet, in giving the best look to
a shoe at the least possible cost is re-
markable. There is made for the West
ern trade prodigious quantity of what
are termed the womens serge polish
shoe.' A good article can scarcely be
made at SLIGO per pair, yet orders are
filed at S1.10 and $1.15, and sometimes
as low as eighty-tive cents. Yet these
shoes look as well as the higher priced
ones, and, in order to do it, they are
cheapened in every possible way-in lin
ing, trimming stitching, in the bows and
eyelets, and particularly in the sole, the
cost of the sole in the inferior goods
being reduced from twenty-three to
eight cents. These soles are known as
pancake and the article itself as a
shoddy shoe The workmanship is also
inferior, being done hurriedly,' The

Setting Hens.

The earlier chickens are Matched in
spring the more profit they give. The
difficulty in bringing off early chickens is
in the want of warm quarters for nest
ing. Those who make a speciality of
poultry breeding are careful in this
matter, and such facilities are so easily
had as to be within the reach of all. In
relation to setting the hens the Poultry
World says 500
We always choose the evening-after
dark-as the best time to set hens. If
they are young fowls you cannot be as
sured that they will be steady sitters
upon their first attempt at this undertake
ing, however earnest they may seem at
the outset.
They should, therefore, be placed upon
artificial or valueless eggs at the begin
ming, say for three or four days, to as
certain if they really "mean business"
when they appear inclined to follow the
motherly instinct. If they stick to the
nest determinedly, then give them the
eggs you desire them to hatch, and you
will be more successful, generally, than
if you neglect this kind of trial at the
outset.

" NOT DEBILITATING, as THE 4NER.
CURIAL REMEDIES ARE, But
STRENG THENING IISTE4U"

This is the testimony of the veteran editor
of the Fredonia Censor, after a satisfactory
trial of DR.. Fenner's Blood and Liver Remedy
and Nerve Tonic. 1t is no uncommon thing
to meet man with cadaverous face, thin,
gaunt, complaining; having no appetite,
breath too offensive to endure, heavily-furred
tongue, unable to rest well nights, barely
keeping around and hardly able TO keep soul
and body together He is always a skeptic
in medicine, and generally everything else,
except one. There is one thing he believes
in, and that is that it is interesting to all
who come within his reach to be bored with
a lengthy and particular recital of all his
ailments, which recital usually concludes
with an emphatic statement of his disbelief
in all remedies that are recommended for his
relief, none of which he has tried, at least
not in any thorough business way Is it not
a relief to turn from such a spectacle to a
consistent, sensible man who does not affect
so much " smartness," but is willing to ac-
knowledge the TRUTH Here is what he says
From Hon. Willard McKinstry. the veteran editor
of the Fredona Censor .
DR.. NJ. NJ. FRNNBR Fredonia, n. y Dear Sir:
have been using your Blood and Liver Remedy
and Nerve Tonic during the past few weeks and
adapted TO the purposes for which you recommend
il. II is an excellent remedy for the bliOusness
usually incident to the change from winter to
spring, sufficiently physicking and yet moi debil-
itating az the mercurial remedies are but strength
enng instead. Yours truly

There were two lawyers in partner
ship, with the peculiarly happy names
of Catchem and Chetum. People laughed
at seeing these two names in iuxtaposi-
ton over the door, so the lawyers thought
it advisable to separate them by the in
sertion of their Christian names. Mr..
Catchem's name was Isaac-Mr. Chetum's
Uriah. A new board was ordered; but
when sent to the painter it was found to be
too short to admit the Christian names
at full length. The painter, therefore,
put only the initials before the surnames,
which made the matter still worse than
before, for there now appeared: q
Catchem and L. Chetum."
