Best Protection against Rust
ing.

For farm implements of all kinds,
having metal surfaces exposed, for
knives and forks, and other house,
hold apparatus, indeed for all metals
likely to be injured by oxidation or
"rusting," we know of no simpler,
more effective application than that
furnished to the American Agricul-
turist by tho late Prof. Olmsted, au-
thor Of Olmsted's Natural Philoso.
ply, etc, He used it on air.pumps,
telescopes, and various other apparut-
us.-Take any quantity of good lard,
and to every half pound or so, add of
common resin ("rosln'O an amount
about equal to half the size of an egy
or less-a httlo more or less is OF no
consequence. Melt them slowly to.
gether, stirring as they cool. Apply
this with a cloth or otherwise, lust
enough TO give a thin coating to the
metal surface to be protected. 1t
can be wiped off nearly clean
from surfaces where it will be unde.
slrable, as in the case OF knives and
forks, etc. The resin prevents ran
oidity, and the mixture excludes the
ready access Of air and moisture. A
fresh application may be needed when
the coating is washed off by tho fric-
ton of beating storms or otherwise.
This single recipe will be worth many
dollars to any one in the long run.
There was talk of patenting it, at one
time, but Prof Olmsted gave it to US
to be published for the general public
good.-.[American Agricultural for

Professor Ort0n's Last Hours.

Additional details of the last hours of
Professor Orion in South America have
been received by his friends at Vassar
College, Pougkeepsie, N, Y. Up to May
last, when he organized his expedition for
the exploration Of the Benz river, his
health continued to improve, and he en-
tered upon that work with characteristic
zeal and hopefulness. But here his troub-
les commenced. The weather was unpro-
pitious. When on the Mamoreriver, male-
ing his way to the mouth Of the Benz, an
extraordinary frcshet flooded his camp
swept of q part Of his supplies, destroyed
some of his Instruments and injured 9th
ers, and kept the party nearly submerged
for twenty -four hours. Soon after his ma
tive attendants lost courage and sought to
desert him. His guide was held to his
duty only by pointing pistol at his
breast. Then followed q mutiny of his
military escort, who threatened his life in
turn, seized one of his two boats and, with
It's crew and a large part of the provisions
for the party, went back, leaving him to
get out of his difficulties as best he
might. 1t would have been madness to
proceed. The expedition to the Benz was
a failure. This was in June. Heart-sick
and i'll, he was yet unwilling to give up
entirely. He might have gone directly,
and with comparative ease, to Para, and
so home. But. he determined with his
reduced means, to explore the smaller
Canpolican. In the latter part OF Au-
gust he arrived at Apollobamb near the
boundary line Of Bolivia and Peru. The
record OF what he accomplished during
those two months is probably contained in
his diary, now in possession of Dr.. lyon
d. Heath, the faithful companion and
friend who adhered to him through all
the hardships. privations, exposures and
dangers of his i'll starred journey, and t.
nally closed his eyes in death. Though
unquestionably greatly exhausted in
strength, he seems to have continued the
journey without interruption, and the
very night before his death, as Dr. Heath
writes, he slept we'll, though the little
schooner in which they were crossing Lake
Titicaca rolled fearfully. Toward morn
ing he got up, called for some tea, drank
it, and lay down again; but, feeling
strangely, asked his friend to sit by him
and hold his hand. Fifteen minutes later
he exclaimed: "What is this? What IS
this?' In about five minutes more he
said, without the disappearance trepi-
dation: "Good-by, Doctor and passed
quietly away, at about twenty minutes
past six, On the morning Of September

Three Literary Fellows.

At the Atlantic Monthly banquet to
the poet Whittier, given in Boston the
other evening, Mark Twain made the fol-
lowing speech:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN: This is an occasion
peculiarly meet for the digging up OF
pleasant "reminiscences concerning literary
folk; therefore I will drop lightly into
history myself. Standing here on the
shore of the Atlantic, and contemplating
certain of its biggest literary pillows, I
am reminded of a thing which happened
to me fifteen years ago, when I had just
succeeded in stirring up a little Nevadian
literary ocean puddle myself, whose
spume flakes were beginning to blow
thinly California-wards. I started an in
spection. tramp through the southern
mines Of California: I was calow and
conceited, and Irerolved to try the viz
tue of my nom de pzetne. I very soon
had an. opportunity. / knocked at a
miners lonely log cabin in the foot hills
of the Sierras just at night-fall 1t was
showing at the time. A jaded, nelan.
choly man Of fifty, bare footed, opened to
me. When he heard my nom de plume
Re looked more detected than before
He let me in-pretty reluctantly, I thought
and after the customary bacon and
beans, black coffee and hot whisky, I
took a pipe. This .sorrowful man had
not said three words up to this time Now
he spoke up, and said in the voice of one
who is secretly suffering: "Youre the
fourth-1m going to move" "The fourth
what?" said +. ssThe fourth literary man
that's been here in twenty -four hours
I'm a going to move" s'You don't tell
me-" said I. sand who were the 9TH
ers?" "Mr. Longfellow, Mr.. Emerson,
and Oliver Wendell Holnles-dad fetch

You can easily believe that was in
terested. I supplicatcd three hot
| Whiskics did the rest and finally the
melancholy miner began Said he:

DREAMING AT F0URsCORE.

She sits in the gathering twilight
In her Well-worn rocking chair,
With the snow of LIES long winter
In the meshes Of her hair.
She dreams of the little children
Who left her long ago,
And listens for their footsteps
With the longings mothers know
She hears them coming, coming!
And her heart is all elate
AT the pattar Of little footsteps
Down by the garden gate.
The CHATTER of children's voices
Comes merrily to her ears,
And she cries, in her tuivering treble,
"You are late, my little dcars J"
And then they are here beside her
As she had them long ago
Susie, and Ben and Mary,
Aud Ruthe and little Joe.
And her heart throbs high Withrapture
As each fond kiss is given,
And the night is filled with music,
Sweet as her dreams of Heaven.
Such wonderful things they tell her!
A nest in The apple tree,
Aud the robin gave them q scolding
For climbing up to see!
\ wee white lamb in the pasture
A wild rose on the hill .a...
And such great ripe strawberry =
As Joe found by the mill!
She listens to all their prattle,
Her heart abrim with rest, s
She's Queen in q little kingdom,
Each child a royal guest.
Queen? IT'S an empty title!
More than a Queen is she:
Mother of young immortals
Who gather at her knee. e.. wa
She brings their welcome supper, ..,
And they sit down at her feet,
Tired, and hungry and happy,
And she laughs to see them cat.
Then she smoothcs the yellow tanylcs
With n mothers patient hand,
While she tells some wonderful story
OF the children's fairy land.
Then the little knotted shoc-strings
Are patiently united,
AID the children in their night gowns
kuecl ut their mothers side.
Their voices arc low and sleepy
Ere their simple prayers are said,
Aud the goodnight kiss is given
BY each waiting little bed.
Then q quiet comes about her,
Solemn and still and deep,
And she says in her dreamy fancies,
The children are fast asleep"
Yes, fast asleep, poor mother,
In their beds so low and green, ..
Daisies and clover blossom
Each face and the sky between. d..

Trea III emit of SPAWN In Horses

EDITOR OF PRESBYTERIAN WEEKLY: The en-
quiry is often made in our Agricultural and
Family Journals concerning q remedy for
Spawn.
Or. B. j. Kendall, of Enosburgh Falls, VT,
Some time since, in treating a horse for SPAWN
IN tile usual manner by blistering, finding that
the application produced so much soreness
and pain, and apparently no good, determined
to investigate the matter in order to find a
remedy if possible, that would produce the de
sired effect, and in q more rational aud hu-
name manner.
This result he finally succeeded in accom-
plishing and the "Kendall's SPAWN Cure" as
it is called, is proving all that could reasonably
have been expected of it. | have interested
myself particularly in the matter in order to
get at the facts, and find that the remedy will
eifectnally remove SPAWN and Splint in from
or soreness, and leaving no callous or scar to
indicate where the difficulty existed.
This is truly an important discovery in
medical science and the ease with which team
be applied and absence of suffering to the ami
mai treated, will commend the remedy to the
attention Of all E. r. ToWLE
