Keeping Grapes i'm Water,

As the practice of keeping grapes in
the fruit room with the stalks inserted in
bottles filled with water, and suspended
from the roof, has now become general,
it is very important to direct attention to
the fact that the stem must be inserted
in the water Immediately after it is sew
cred from the vine, and also that the end
of the shoot must not be shortened.
When the branches are not at once in
serted in the water the stalks will soon
become brown and the berries shrivel.
Also, if the end of the branch is short
ened for the purpose Of giving neater
appearance to the punches when suspend
ed in the fruit room, the grapes will soon
begin to shrivel, and if not used within a
short space of time will be of little ser
vice. Last winter / saw in the garden
of an amateur a very splendid lot of
grapes which were very nearly spoiled
through that portion of the wood above
the bunch being removed.-Gardener's

A Walking Miracle.

MR.. II. r. STEVENS
Dear Though a stranger, l want TO in
form you what NEGETINE has done for Inc.
Last Christmas Scrofula made its appearance
in my system large running ulcers appearing
on me, as follows: One each Of my arms,
one on nv thigh, which extended to the seat,
one on my head, which eat into the skull bone,
one on my left leg, which became 50 bad that
two physicians came to amputate the limb,
So as my whole body SO fun of Scrofula;
they deemed il advisable to cut the sore, which
was painful beyond description, and there was
q quart of matter run from this one sore
The physicians all gave me up to die. and
said they could do no more for me. Both Of my
legs were drawn up TO my seat, ana IL was
thought if L did get up again would be a cr1p-
pie for life. ,
When in this condition / NEGETTNE
advertised. and commenced taking 1t in March,
and followed on with it until i had used six
teen bottles, and this morning l am going to
plough corn, a well man. All my townsnen
say it is miracle TO see me round walking and
working.
In conclusion I will add, when I was eEdur-
ing such great suffering, from that dreadful
disease Scrofula. prayed to the Lord above 10
take me out Of this world, but as NEGEIINE has
restored to me the blessings Of health, desire
more than ever to live. that l may be OF some
service to my fchow-men, and | know OF no
better way to aid suffering humanity, than 10
iuclose you this statement of my case, with an
earnest hope that you will publish II, ami IL
will afford pleasure to reply 10 any COM
Inuuicatfon which may receive therefrom.

MEIGGs' FoRTUNE.-M1 Henry Meiggs,
the enormously wealthy railroad con-
tractor Of South America, is q native of
New York state, and about sixtyfve
years old. He first sought his fortune
in California, and opened up the great
est lumber interests OF that western
coast. He engaged in many schemes OF
public benefit. But being obliged to
borrow money, the usurious rates of i'll
terest then prevailing il California took
him beyond his depth. and he went to
South America, leaving behind him heavy
liabilities. There he made large sums
as railroad contractor, and then settled
the California claims. He ownes two
rcsidences-one in the city of Lima, and
the other in the suburbs-bere he dis
penses hospitality to Californians, on
every possible occasion. No American
was ever hard pressed for money with
out Mr.. Meiggs coming to his rescue and
supplying him with means to go to any
part Of the world he might desire. His
"Quinta, or private dwelling-house, is
situated in the midst Of sixty acres
of pleasure grounds, filed with rarest
fruits and flowers.
