4 Very Little in Bank.

Among the subscribers to Audubon's
magnificent work on ornithology was
John Jacob Astor. He was always ready
to encourage such works, and he put his
name down upon Audubon's book for one
thousand dollars. During the progress
of the work, which proved to be more ex-
pensive than had been at first anticipated
Mr.. Audubon often found himself obliged
to call upon his generous patrons fol
assistance; but he did not call upon Mr.
Astor until the letter-press and the plates
had been made, however, he called upon
the great merchant for his thousand dol
lars.
"Ah, Mr.. Audubon said the owner OF
millions, "you came in very bad time
Money is scarce and hard, and l have
everything snugly and tightly invested.
And so the ornithologist called, time
after time and was often put off. 1t was not
because Mr.. Astor did not wish to pay
but it was from that strong desire, grow
ing stronger with his years, to keep his
property intact, and see it increased
When he had paid away ahundred thous-
and dollars for really benevolent pur-
pose he felt good, as man feels good
who has got rid of an aching tooth. IL
was only the wrenching away of the
money that hurt him.
At length Audubon called the sixth
time. Mr.. Astor had commenced to be
moan the low, ebb condition of his cash
in hand, when he caught disappearing
look from his son William, who happened
to be present.
"But," said the old man, after pause

Evidently John Jacob had expected
his son to answer simply yes; and it may
be that William b. thought his father
wished to know something of the bank &C
count. AT at rate he was just fresh from
the cash-on-hand page of the ledger, and
he answered.:

Men differ on nearly every issue. There
have always been opposite parties in politics
and religion, though the measures fought over
one daymay be universally adopted at another,
and those sacrificed regarded as heroes and
martyrs. Medicine has also been subject to
revolutionary disturbances. When Drs HaT-
vey and Jenner announced their discoveries,
they were held In contempt and ridicule by an
incredulous and ignorant public; yet to-day
they are recei ed and honored by all, as bene-
factors. When DR.. Pierce announced his Dis
coDegy, many seemed to doubt, and were skep-
teal concerning all medicines and doctors, bat
proof of merit has dispelled all doubt, and to-
day the Golden Medical Discovery is the stan
dard remedy In curing the most obstinate dis
eases of the liver and blood having almost en-
tirely superseded the old-time sarsaparillas by
reason of its superior merits

The Man Who was Excited Over the

five hundred pieces, and banged the Lon
don Times against the wall with an awful
thump as he jumped out doors, but girls
are sometimes prejudiced. Mr.. White
was in the corner grocery at half past
eleven, saying to the proprietors:
'Don't it make your blood jump as
you read of the European situation?"
And the proprietor raked the cheese

it, and replied;

Late Beans and Peas.

The Germantown Telegraph has the fol-
lowing suggestions ON this subject:
There are few garden luxuries more
sought for than good peas and SNAP
short beans; but it is extremely rare
that people know what good peas and
beans are. The peas are generally as
hard as short, and the beans have to. be
chewed as if they were so much tow,
although the cook may have "stringed "
them before boiling. A good pea shonld
almost melt in the north like ice-cream,
or at least mash as easy as draw-butter
and there is no reason why they may not
always he this way. As for the bean,
there is no more reason for having strings
in ii than there should be strings in aroll
of maccaroni.
In cool countries peas and beans are
almost always tender and nice; il is our
hot soil that gives them the tough ten
dency; but this is easily corrected by
having deep soil and good rotten manure
for them to grow IN.
In old times good part of the winter
in the regular gardens" where CAMDEN
ers were continually kept, it was the prac-
tice TO trench" piece of ground every
winter for particular crops. This prac-

tice, subsoiling. 1t is found that for most
crops this practice is unnecessary. With
good manure and ordinary digging or
blowing, the average of crops can be well
known. But not so with peas or beans.
To have good tender stuff the earth must
be deeply loosened as well as rich. This
is important even for spring and earlier
crops; but it is essential for fair crops.
1t is generally said that it is useless To
try to have good peas end beans in this
country in the fall, and it is usually at
tempted; but in deep cool soil it is a very
different thing.
Good deep soil encourages the roots of
vegetables down into cool climate, in
which IN summer they luxuriate. This
may not be good for trees, as we want
hard, solid wood and not luxurious growth.
In vegetables il is just the reverse We
do not want hard fibre here, but, soft, ten
der succulence; and this is what results
from vegetable roots in deep soil in hot
weather.

A MODEL MAIDEN.

lis not alone that she Is fair
And hath a wealth Of colder hair;
lis not that she can play and sing,
To charm a critic or a king;
lis not that she is gentle, kind,
And wears no chignon huge, behind.
Nor high-heeled boot, nor corset laced
To show her slenderness of waist:
lis not that she can talk with ease
ON well-nigh any theme you please;
lis not that she can row, and ride,
And do dozen things beside;
The reasons why love Miss Brown
Are that she never wears afrOwn.
Nee sulks, nor p0uts, or mOpes, OF frets,
Or tusscs about styles or SETS
Ne'er nurses lapdOgs by the fire,
Nor bids her friends her charms admire;
Ne'er bets upon the DUrby Day,
And when she's lost Omits to pay;
BY bOnnets does not bound her talk,
Aud Is not disposed TO walk:
Ne'er bullies her small brothers, nor
Esteems their childish games a here;
With pigments ne'er her cheek defiles
Nor pTaetices cOquetttish wiles;
Needs not a maiden To pack her things.
Nor plagues papa for diamond rings,
On biscuits il content to lunch:
Loves Shakespeare, Milton, Pope and Puncl
Never desccnds 20 vulgar slang,
And never was known the door 10 bang:
