PURE BONE GOODS,


WE desire to call the particular attention of farm
w ers to our Bone Goods all of which are
strictly pure, and for which, after thorough ex-
animation by the committee at the New EnSIand
and Maine State Fair, held at Portland Sem
TENDER Sd to 7th 1877 we were awarded the highest
premium over all old competitors for that class Of
goods.
1st-Our ground bone, for fertilizer. beinp
pure, contains large percentage of phosphorjc
acid, nitrogen, amonia and maFnesie
which makes it the safest fertilizer for all kinds of
crops 1t is also very nice when composted with wood
ashes in equal parts.
2nd-Our bone meal has no equal in America.
1t is ground from pure hard bones, and is yery
white and sweet. it has no offensive 0dor or taste
In fact it is as sweet corn meal, and cattle eat
it freely and with good results.
we likewise make an extra article of uOulfrv
bone of uniform size, no long slivers to choke the
hens. 1t helps to form the shell of the eggs and
is what the poultry need at all times. supply of
it should be kept in box constantly before them,
We would further say that it our object to secure
good reputation for our bone goods and we he
lieve the only way is to make them strictly Dure
ana those who favor us with their patronage NAV
rely upon it, that all the goods purchased of us viii
be strictly pure.
We also have constantly on hand, ground heef
scraps which poultry should always have in box
the same as poultry bone. 1t is also excellent to
iced to swine.

Our Divorce System.

Concerning divorces the WAlla Walla
Votchma1, discourses as iolloNc.
There is nothing so diabolical, so
damnable and dangerous TO society, as
our present disreputable mode and sys-
tenn Of severing the most sacred ties ex-
isting in the human family, or, in other
words, the obtaining Of divorce. If
marriage is a divine institution, as rec
Ognized by ecclesiastic and cabalistic
authorities, then why not treat il as
such ? II, according to the law OF our
land, it is recognized as a mere civil
contract, then why treat the dissolution
Of such contract so different from any
other civil contract? y and B can en-
ter into a cO-partnership in business on
any legitimate, honorable undertaking,
and if they perceive that they cannot
get along together as partners, they
simply dissolve the co-partnership in d
decent, business-like manner, without
scandal or in will toward each other,
and that's the end Of it; but let husband
and wife come to realize that they have
made a fatal mistake, that their part
nership is one of misery and woe, and
in order to free themselves from the op-
pressive life they are leading, they must
first fiud some specific cause, perhaps
commit certain crimes, in order to pro-
duce that cause. Mutual consent has
nothing to do with il. They cannot
dissolve of their own free will and say
in a notice of dissolution: "Ihe co.
partnership heretofore existing between
John Doe and his wife Susan Doe has
this day been dissolved by mutual con-
sent; all debts will be paid by John, and
all money due Us must be paid to Susan
Doe, etc, etc" We say, II it has TO be
done at all, why not do it decently !?
Why must husband or wife approach a
lawyer or two, perfect strangers per-
maps, and reveal to them ali their do
mestic troubles and affairs, and answer
some of the most delicate questions
Why must the whole community know
their grievances, and public scandal
cover them from the soles of their feet
to the crown Of their heads? Why
must they enter a courtroom crowded
with a motley crowd, like two culprits
guilty. of heinOus crimes? Why must
they appear before judge and jury to
settle for them a business which they
could easily settle for themselves? Why
must their case be dragged through all
the public scum aud filth, called testi-
mony, unfit for decent people to hear
sometimes? Why must all this be done
before that important decree can be rem
dered ? II is farce and a burning
shame upon our statutes.
Then, by way Of a clincher, the writer
adds the following:
We need a law that makes marriage
more binding and divorces more odious,
more serious in obtaining the same, and
which would do away with that nause-
Gus, rank odor which surrounds our high
courts to-day when a divorce case is on
trial.
There is nothing like making ones
assertions come out strong.

MAKE a FEw.-A pretentious student
IN Brown University once told DIR. Way
land that he thought il would be easy to
make proverbs like those of Solomon.
The only reply OF DR. Wayland was,
"Make a few ~ II skeptics who have
spent so much time IN railing at the
Bible would try their hands at making
better book, a book that would take
hold upon the heart of humanity; which
would interest childien and comfort old

noblest thoughts; which would chasten
them in joy and comfort them i'm sOr-

page of such a book as this, we would
gladly listen 10 what they have to say.

lasting negation; this seeking to rob
people OF a healthful aud comfortable

ECONOAIY.-The French butcher sep
arates the bones from his steaks, and
places them where they will do the
most good. The housewife orders just
enough for each person aud no more,
even 10 the coffee. II chance visitor
drops in, somebody quietly retires and
the extra cup is provided, but nothing
extra by carelessness of intention, when
the little range is extinguished, and
waits for another time. No roaring
cook stoves and red-hOt covers all day
long for no purpose but waste. The egg
laid to-day costs little more than one
laid last week. Values are nicely esti-
mated, and the smallest surplus is care
fully saved. \ thousand little econo-
mics are practiced, and IL is respectable
TO practice them. Cooking is an eco
nomical, as well as sanitary and gusta-
tory science. A French cook will make
franc 20 as far as an American house
wife will make three. We should prob
ably be greatly astOnished could the

CINCINNATI'S SHOW.
The Musical Fever Unabated, and Can
not Even be Reduced by n Driz-

Performance.

CINCINNATI, May 16.-Although drilling
rain fell all during the afternoon and early in
the evening, there was no abatement In the
musical fever of the people, and another
packed audience greeted the performers.
The programme consisted of but four num-
bers, and the selections were evenly divided
between Wagner and Beethoven, the former
leading with chorus from Die Meistersinger
cWakeI wake, the dawning day is near },
brief but happy example of that great mas
ter's work. The second number, Beethoven 0
overture from COriold,smS, was even shorter,
and illustrated in a marked degree the won
derfu precision of the mammoth orchestra:
The third and closing number of the first part
consisted of selections from the GOtteJ-ddnl-
nerung ("Sigfried's Death, and the finale
in this-the vocal part-was given by Nine.
Pappenheim. The portion chosen for inter-
probation this evening commenced with the
fried" after the death of that parsonage by
the sword of "Hagar, and includes the death
of 'Brunhilde.' 1t was fine illustration of
Wagnerian melody, and the execution OF
Nine. Pappenheim brought applause and
congratulations even from Mr.. Thomas, and
the braves of the audience drew her re-
luctantly before them three times.
The closing portion of the evenings en-
tainment was confined to Beethoven and his
ninth symphony, closing with the hymn of
joy, by the qua-tette club, Nine. Pappen-
helm, Miss Carey, Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Rem
mertz. This was also given at the second
festival, and the chorus renewed the laurels
won three years ago. The matinee and con-
cert tomorrow will close the festival.
