THE GROVER CASE.
W. II. Stiles, the witness who testified
against Grover on Saturday, publishes
this morning long statement in the
Oregonidu, in which he says he divulged
the thing because he, MS a Democrat, re-
pudiated the action Of Grover in trying
to cheat the Republican party out oi the
electoral vote Of Oregon. He says the
Democratic party does not and cannot
approve snch desperate expedienLs, and
will repudiate the man responsible for it.
Stiles made an affidavit last winter to
the same statement, respecting Grover;
though it was not made under oath before
the Investigating Committee, and claims
therefore that he has done all he could
from the first 10 show up this affair to
the country.

Bringing Up a Worn Farm.

Prof. Kedzie, of the Michigan Agri-
cultural College, in an able address de-
livered before the Michigan Farmers In.
stitute, lately held, concludes as follows:
believe the easiest and cheapest way
to bring up worn.down farm is by
green manuring. Suppose your farm is
too poor for clover, and grass makes only
feeble growth; put on it a manurial
crop that will grow, such as rye. Turn
this under with your plow, and you can
then raise something better. Keep feed
ing your soil with everything your shovel
and your team can Communicates -
leached ashes, if you can get them by
drawing them within five miles, muck,
mari, anything that will bring a green
mantle over your fields. Soon as you
can set the clover-pumps at work, pump
ing up to the surface the inexhaustible
resources of your subsoil.
If an animal dies, don't stop to bewail
Xour luck and exclaim: Everything
goes to the dogs on my farm" Don't
send it to the dogs at all, but compost it
with muck, or even soil, and thus secure
most valuable manure. Sampson per.
formed wonder by taking honey from
the dead carcass of lion. You can out
do that wonder by extracting wheat from
the carcass of your dead COW. Pick
up all the bones you can find, put them
under cover, and mix with them two or
three times their bulk of ashes from
your kitchen; moisten them with enough
water so that the potash may act on the
gelatine of the bones; stir them over
once week and in a month or two you
will find the bones so tender that you can
cut and crush them with blow from
your shovel. Beat the whole into a pow
derry mass, and you will have manure
better than the superphosphates which
you feel too poor to buy. Give a hand.
full of this to each hill of corn, and see
how it will wave its banner of green,
and pour into your basket the golden
ears.
But in bringing your soil into good
condition, do not neglect green manur-
ing. Let every wind that blows over
your fields bring them blessing in the
shape of atmospheric plant-fOod. Do
all these things patiently and hopefully,
without urging your soil beyond what it
can do, and you will yet, out of the full
ness of grateful heart, exclaim: Bless
God for the farm"

A Few Quotations Commonly Supposed
to be From the Bible.

There are many familiar phrases IN
constant use which the majority of peo-
pie suppose have their origin in the
Bible, and use them in that connection.
The New York Observer corrects this
error in the following manner. But, as
the phrases are very fine we still love to
use them. To prevent misquotation
from the Scripture, it gives them thus:
"God tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" From Sterne's Sentimental
Journey to Italy" Compare Isaiah XVI. 9.
In the midst of life we are in death. J"
From the Burial Service; and this origi.
nally from hymn of Luther.
BREAD and wine which the Lord
hath commanded to be received" From
the English Catechism.
"Not to be wise above what is written. J."
Not in Scripture.
"The merciful man is merciful to his
beast" The Scriptural form is: "a
righteous man regardeth the life of his
beast. PROV. xii. 10.
"A nation shall be born in a day."
In Isaiah it reads: Shall.a nation be
born at onceH"
"As iron sharpeneth iron, so doth a
man the countenance of friend"
Iron sharpeneth; so man sharpeneth
the countenance Of his friends. y Prov.
xvii. II.
"That he who funs may read. ="
That he may run that readeth. Heb.
xi. 2.
"Owe no man anything but love"
lowe no man anything but to love one
another. Rom. xxi. 8.
"Prone to sin as the sparks fly up
ward" born to trouble as the sparks
to fly upward. Rom. v. Z.
Exalted to heaven in point of privi-
lege." Not in the Bible.
Eve was not Adams helpmate, but
merely a help meet for him; nor was
Absalom's long hair the instrument of
his destruction, his head, and not hair
upon it, having caught in the. bows of
the tree. e Samuel xviii. 81 A Lon
don wig maker once made sign upon
which was painted Absalom suspended
from the branches of the oak by his hair,
and underneath the following couplet:

Thnnnnnda Of AmdnrIta.

Many having used "patent" and prepared
medicines and failed in finding the relief
promised, are thereby prejudiccd against all
medicines. Is this right? Would you con-
giving the relief promised? Some go to
California in search Of gold, and after work.
ing hard for months and finding none, return
home and say there is no gold there. Does
that prove it? Many suffering with Catarrh
and pulmonary affections have used the
worthless preparations that crowd the mar.
ket, and in their disappointment say there is
no cure for Catarrh. Does that prove it?
Does it not rather prove that they have failed
to employ the proper remedy? There are
thousands of people in the United States
who can make an affidavit that DR.. Sagc's
Catarrh Remedy and DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery have effected their entire
cure. Many had lost all sense of smell for
months, and pieces of bone had repeatedly
been removed from the nasal cavities.

Drink.

Neglect of any Kind has its penalty,
especially in the management Of poultry.
During the cold weather there should be
a regular supply Of pure water furnished,
and it should not be cold. Fowls like to
drink often, and they consume as much
water, in proportion to the weight Of
their bodies, as horses or other domestic
animals. Very cold water chills the
body and retards the production of eggs.
1t is a notable fact that many farmers
and small breeders neglect giving water
to their fowls, forcing them to eat snow
or ice; and in such cases there is not only
lack of thrift, but downright suffering
and, very likely, disease follows.
II warm water is provided, by using
some approved drinking fountain, by
which an even temperature is obtained,
there is no more trouble through the day; (;
but if not, the water should be supplied
warm in the morning and again at noon.
Warm water and warm food make the
fowls comfortable. They never lay eggs
unless in a comfortable condition. II
takes much animal heat to melt ice in
the crop. Very cold water retards the
digestion of the food, and prevents in
some measure that stimulating or nOur-
ishing effect which is desirable in the
production of eggs or fattening of the
fowls. - Poultry World.

and IL was announced that II was heard
by every person in the Salem hall.
An illiterate peasant girl, servant in
prominent family Of South Maitland,
Australia, has lately inherited million
and half of francs, or 100000. The
golden shower has descended on the
heiress from the will of distant relative,
of whose existence she was ignorant,
but who had made a large fortune in
America, and left II to this girl and her
brother in equal portions. The brother
is stable boy in a wealthy family near
Paris. Both are utterly without educa-
tion, not even knowing how to read.
The lady with whom the heiress con-
tinues to live while the affairs of the de-
fuDct relative are being settled is vain

ton of the Importance Of the fortune
she has fallen into; but it seems impos-
siblc to make her see either the respon-
sibilties it will entail or the necessity
of turning it to useful account. Her
sole idea in connection with her i'm
proved fortune is to have "a little house
in the country and good lot of fowls"
She stubbornly refuses to learn to read or
write, declaring that she can look after
"the little house and the fowls" without
either. "But how will you manage your

A Universal Language.

There is no surer sign Of intellectual
laziness than the common yearning for a
universal language. Herr Martin Lothar
Schulfroh School-glad"- most sig
nificant nameD of Zweibrucken, in Al
satia, comes forward with a proposition
for at once establishing what he consid.
ers to be the final result of civilization
a universal language. The pamphlet is
entitled "The Language of the Flu.
ture," an epithet borrowed from Wag-
ner's battles, and confronts the subject
with courage worthy of some possible
undertaking. In his scheme of uni
versal language, overlooking the fact
that polysyllable words come with higher
human development, he insists upon a
monosyllabic language, compounded of
the principle tongues now in use. He
would have the months named Jan, Feb,
PrI, Sep, etc, and days of the week
SOnd, Aond, Dind, etc. His numerals
are on, do, tro, for, .fF, and so on to mil,
a thousand. Thus his eighteen hun
dred and seventy-six" mine syllables) is
shortened into the lovely and mellihuous
word, OSwndsiSehdns." He would sim
ply indicate ordinal numbers by the use
of the letter {, so that Tuesday, Decem-
ber 21st, would glide from the lips of all
races as DiRd, oRdant Deez." Let any
one repeat these words gently, and he
will discover that they have serene
and composing effect upon the mind,
and give placid expression to the lips.
In fact, they might be used by young
lady before entertaining room full of
company, instead of "papa, poultry,
prunes and prism" To designate our
Centennial year as oxundsischans"
would, we fear, require some sacrifice of
national pride; but, on the other hand,
such a change would enable all mankind
to say ont Pri for the First of April. !"

A Walking Miracle.
Mr., ii, r. STEVENS,

Mr.. II. r. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-Though a stranger, I want to inform
you what NEGETlNE has done for me.
Last Christmas, Scrofula made Its appearance In
my system-laEge running ulcers appearing on me,
as follows: Que on each Of my arms, one on my
thigh which extended to the seat, one on my head
which eat into the skull-bone, one on my left leg
which became so bad that two physicians came TO
amputate the limb, though upon consultation
concluded not to do so, as my whole body was so
full Of Scrofua they deemed II advisable to cut
the sore which was painful beyond description,
and there was quart OF matter run from this one
sore.
The physicians all gave me mp to die and said
they could do no more for me. Both OF my legs
were drawn up to my seat, ana It was thought IL
did get up again would be cripple for life.
When In this condition saw NEGETINE ad.
yertsed, and commenced taking 1t in March, and
followed on with II until had used sixteen bot.
ties, and this morning am going to plough corn,
a.well man. All my townsnen, say 1t is mira.
Gle to see me round walking and working.
In conclusion will add, when was enduring
such great suffering from that dreadful disease
Scrofua, prayed to the Lord above to take me
out OF this world, but as VEGETINE has restored
to me the blessings OF health, desire more than
ever to live, that may be Of some service to my
fellow men, and know OF no better way to aid
suffering humanity, than to inclose you this state
ment OF my case, with an earnest hope that you
will publish it, and IL will afford me pleasure tC
