The DERvIsH AND THE CAvILER.-
A man came one day to n dervish and
laid before him three questions:
l. Why is it that God is everywhere
present? l don't see Him. Show me
where He is.
2. Why is man to be punished for
his sins? He has no free will, since he
can do nothing against the will of God
the fire of hell, since he is formed OF
fire, flaming spirit? Fire cannot do
harm to fire.
HeIcupon the dcryish picked up a
large lump Of earth and threw it with all
his might at the head of the questioner
The poor man was startled at the striking
answer, and lodged complaint before
the Cadi. The. Cadi summoned the
dervish and asked him:
"Why did you throw lump of earth
ot this mans head, instead Of giving al
answer to his questions p
1T was my answer" replied the der
wish, "and the best answer l could give
at once to all three questions:
!. He says he has pain in his head.
1 don't see il. Let him make me see the
pain i'll his head, and then I may try to
make him see God.
2. He then comes to you and lodges n
complaint of me. What right has he to
do SO? l have no free will and he has
no right to seek that / be punished, since
God permitted me to throw the earth a.
him.
8. And then now can earth do harm TO
earth? The man is made Of earth
earth cannot do harm to earth, if fire
cannot do harm to fire."

HEIFERs' CALVES FOR Cows.--Nol
long since correspondent inquired
about making cows of heifers' calves, but
having seen no answer, venture to give
him my observations and experience.
believe it to be an established fact with
old farmers here that the "first calf for
an OK" and the "last calf for q cow" are
true sayings. Cutie Young COWS develop
smartness, old cows laziness; in the for
mer muscle predominates, and in the lat
ter secretions. Two years ago had q
very pretty calf from a two-year-old
heifer-a perfect beauty--and in the fall.
while it was still q cali, my little son took
It to the fair and got premium. This
spring she had n calf but the boy il fAd-
ly disappointeds%he thinks he has baill
too much for the whistle" for she does
not give over one quart of milk at time.
All the measuring and mealing will not
coax her to increase her milk much
Her grandma was q great mixer. and
thaty isI why'd saved the cali, buET viii
notbe likely to save another heifer's calf
for COW. That same year we had a
beifer calf from a very old COW; she has
also calved, and she gives commoh pail

a COMPLICATED CAsE.-A rather
complicated case is about to come before
the courts ut Frankfort on-the. Oder. A
lively Young boar was recently sent there
BY rail from Custrin, carefully shut upi in
wooden cage. On the journey, how
ever, he managed to break his prison.
and devoured no less than twenty-five
bounds of German yeast, which hap.
nened to be in the Same carrfage The
condition of the misguided pig, when the
yeast began to rise, may be imagined.
Heswas qnite unable to bear his suddenly
acquired greatness, and gave up the
ghost in n multitude of sighs, which is
quite explicable under the circumstances.
isnt now the question is who is to pay.
tho damage for what? The railway
company, repudiates all responsibility.
IP the owner Of the carcass to proceed
against the owner of the yeast for tine loss
Of his boar, or is the ex-proprietor of the
yeast to proceed against the owner of the
pig for the loss Of his merchandise Z
Eminent counsel hold that the claim of
both parties lies against the constructor
OF the cage; but the builder contends
that the cage was never calculated to
Withstand the frantic efforts of O. pie
stung into frenzy by the Temptation. Of
Twenty-Five pounds of yeast placed uuder

A Stern Warming.

Among the officers OF the brilliant
court of the grand monarch Of France,
Louis XIV, was the Marquis Hugh de
Vernicourt. This marquis was Of an
ancient family, very wealthy, and had
proved himself brave and efficient cap
tain on more than one hard fought field
In his sober momcnts, though inclined
to be naughty and ovcrbearing, he could
yet be gentleman; but when the fumes
Of the wine cup had seized his brain,
which was far too often the case, he was
turbulent and quarrelsome, and his duels
were numerous, SO that in time it came
to pass that his companions feared and
dreaded him. Feeling secure in his
lordly estate, his high nobility exempting
him from certain penalties which might
have rested upon OH, IF lower degree, he
pursued his reckless :rd incbriate course
for time unchecked.
AZ length in hostile encounter, tho
marquis slew gentleman Of the royal
guard, whose friends made much COM
plaint De Vernicourt appeared before
the king, and pleaded in extcnuation
that he was much heated at the time,
and begged the royal pardon. The par
don was granted, with the addition of a
severe reprimand, and caution for the
future. But the caution availed little.
Ere long afterward the troublesome mar
quis !, larreled with gentleman of the
cardinals household, the result Of which
was another fatal sword thrust.
Once more the nobleman was sum-
moned before him, and his old excuse
was offered, and again he implored the
royal pardon.
Hugh dc Vernicourt" said Louis,
Chou art pardoned."
The marquis would have expressed his
thanks. -ut the king stopped him.
"HoId, Sir Hugh. We wish not for
thy thanks for know that thou art not
the only one to whom we have extended
our .royal pardon. We have caused a
pordon to be prepared in blank, and
have placed it in the hands of our trusty
minister Of police. 1t is for the man
who shall XIII thee p
The caution proved sufficient to the
end desired.

And he inherits soft white hands,
And tender flesh that fears the cold;

A Heritage, it seems to me, =,
One scarce would wish to hold in fec.
The los ts.an's son inherits cares;
The b INK may break, the factory burn !;
4 brcs., may burst his bubble shares,
And son white hands could sca-cely earn
A living that would serve his turn:
A heritage, it seems to me,
One would scarce wish to hold III fec.
What doth the poor mans son inherit?
Stout muscles and O sinewy heart,
A hearty frame, harder spirit
King Of two hands, he docs his part
In every useful toll and art:
A heritage, II seems to me,
A king might wish TO hold in fee.
What doth The poor mans son inherit?
Wishes oerjoyed with humble things,
A rrnk adjudged by toil-worn merit,
Content that from employ nent springs,
A heart that in his labor sings:
a heritage, it seems TO me,
a king might wish to hold in fee.
What doth the poor mans son inherit?

This is the best crop from thy lands;

There is worse wearincss than thine,
In merely being rich and great;
Toll only gives the soul 10 shine,
And makes rest fragrant and benign!

Worth being poor TO hold in fec.

VALUABLE HINTs.-How TO prevent
chickens from having the gapes. In many
localities it is next ~ impossible to raise
young chickens, from the fact that o large
part, and sometimes the whole brood,
vii! die with this disease. To pre- III ~
this, IT is only necessary to drop little
swect-oil on the top of their heads
two or three times aftc1 they are a week
old. The nit are laid on the top of the
chicks heads in few day3 after they
are hatchcd ano when the insects hatch
and come forth, they crawl into the nose
and take their residence in the chickens
breath-pipe. Many of the young die as
the result.
How TO give medicine to swine. 1t is
often said that if anything ails hog they
will surely die, because nothing can be
given them. Nothing j, farther from
the fact; indeed, there is no animal on
the farm to whom medicine can be ad
ministercd with so much safety. Turn
the animal upon his back, when he will
invariably open his mouth, and then is
the time TO turn in the medicine. Too
much must not be turned in at once. or
the animal may draw it into his lungs
and expire almost instantaneously.
How TO break horse from being bad
to catch. Whip him and club him and
pelt him rs much as you will before you
catch him, but after you get him fully in
haId, give him two quarts Of oats, curry
and brush him, and call him good fei-
low, and it will have visible impression
upon the the horses mind. He will soon
learn that two quarts of oats are better
than the pelting.
Now is the time to purify your chicken
houses to prevent disease. Burning sui
phur in the houses sprinkling with car
bolic acid whitcwashing with hot lime
cleansing out frequently providing ne "
nests; providing literally with ash es
charcoal, burnt oyster shells, lime, gravel,
pure water, will aid in stopping or ward.

CONDITION OF THE Caoiss.-The sum.
mel, opens with q rarely universal prom.
ise of favorable crop season and large
agricultural products. The single serious
exception is in southern California, where
the small rainfall of tho winter has left
barrenncss and drought, which not only
are preventing crop of wheat but bring.
ing to death n large percentage of the
cattle and sheep in that section. There
have been more rains in northern and
central California, and the crop prospects
there are Mt lenst of the average. The
grasshoppers in some localities of the
West and the potato bugs in the East are
making trouble for the farmers, who are.
However fighting their enemies with in
creased intelligence and success, and the
damage from them this season is not like
ly to be either serious or wide-spread,
There is nor surer basis for faith in the
restored prosperity of the country than in
this condition and promise, of the agri-
cultural interest. Probably the United
States will raise q greater amount OF
food, cotton and wool this year, and get
more money for it all, than in any wear
before. In spite Of the lessening foreign
domand for our paper securities. and
even the return home Of many heretofore
held abroad, the balance of trade con-
tlnues heavily in favor of the United
States, and is likely to remain SO for the
next year; and this, with tolerable gov
ernmcnt and persistent industry, ,sare the
sure guarantea of d healthy and pros.
