that it was Oxygen in an active and highly

FANATICISM GONE TO SEED.

The ACTION OF TIE MRS. r. 3
Hayes Temperance Association in Wash,
inston, in striking Mrs. Hayes name
from the title ofthat organization is the
meauest act Of fanaticism and folly Oh
record. This Association condemned Mrs
HAYES on newspaper information for
countenancing g the drinking Of c!arei
punch on the recent excursion on the
Delaware and for saying TO a Philadel-
phia gentlemen that she did not seek to
control others in respect to the use Of wine.
In the hrst place, the AS ,ciation had no

t had not the decency to wait until her re.
turn to Washington. But even if it had
b en furnished with indubitable proof,
there would not have been enough in it to
justify the Associations action. What
right had Mrs. Hayes; as guest on board

eat or drink 2 And then poor, thin, harm

We .sdmit that this punch is a very mean
beverage, but It's meanness is of charact

tion in question. Poor N RS. Hayes was on

hand once ON the forehead, white and

which the life-tide had ebbed never %

under the great elms that kept k1ngly

To that secluded spot, weeks after,

The three heroes of the Bulgarian
campaign who are enshrined in the hearts
of the Russians are Todleben, Gourko
and Skobelef. Todleben is now in his
Goth year, having entered the engineer
school in st. Petersburg in 1885. Dur
ing the Crimean wal he conducted the
siege operations against Silistria, and
the heroic defense Of Sebastopol. At the
outbreak of the present war he was con-
sidered an old fogy, and was shelved in
the Engineer Department of the Minis
ter of War. When the staff found out
that Plevna could not be captured by
hurting solid regiments against the in
trenchments, the veteran, was called to
the front to conduct the investment.
Gourko is in his 50th year, and had seen
service in the Crimea and Poland before
he made his dashing raid across the
Balkans. He commands the Imperial
Guard, the flower of the Russian army,
and has borne a CONSPICUOUS part in the
siege of Plevna. Skobelcff is the young
est Major General in the service, his age
being 80. He won the name of dare
devil during the campaign in Khokand,
and has exposed himself recklessly dur.
ing the present war. On the evening
before the passage Of the Danube at
Simnitza, having been requested by the
Grand Duke to call for volunteers from
the division 'ot Cossacks under his COM
mand to swim the river and reconnoiter
the opposite bank, he plunged into the
water at the head Of a small party of
ten men, and successfully accomplished
the required work. He always leads his
men against the enemy. He saved what
was left of the army that attacked
Osman late in July, and in the desperate
assaults upon the enemy's works, early
in September, fought like q second
SuXarrOW.

A Cold Day In London.

A terrible day for the poor cOster-
mongers and s~tall-keepers of Whitecross
street. The fshwoman who yesterday
stigmatized the weather as beastly, be-
cause il drenched her shawl and COM
PEELED her to stand in a puddle, could
not, unless she sent home for a kettle of
hot water and thawed the stubborn ice
in the kennel, find a puddle to stand in,
though she walked a mile in search of it,
and her life depended on it. A day 70
bitingly, bitterly cold that the very tur-
nips and carrots set out in penny lots on
the bleak boards looked nipped up and
frost bitten, and would be grateful to
any one who wculd take them home and
pop them into a comforting pot of hot
soup. Gin fails, this morning, to be all
that is desired by the miserable women
who indulge in it at the bars of the
Whitecross street gin shops. There does
not seem to be warmth enough in the
fiery liquid to set free the slatternly
dram-drinkers' powers of speech, or to
alter the leaden hue of their lips. The
male loafers at the beer shops find no
comfort in pewter MISUNDERSTANDING it
is because their pockets are frozen out
and loiter by the lamp posts, askingeach
other in dismayed voices how long this
ere is a-goin' to last" as they stamp
their feet and blow on their knuckles
for warmth's sake. The sudden frost
seems to have paralyzed this neighbor-
hood of squalor, and. everybody is half
benumbed and wretched looking-except
the children. Here they come in a troop
Billy of yesterday and his young
friends among the number, and though
the shoes and boots of the whole party,
on account of their ramshackle, would
not, if all sold to an old Jew. realize
enough money to buy a new pair, the
Dervish dance they performed yesterday
was quite a lame performance to what
they are equal to this morning. Their
jackets and frocks are miserably thin,
flor there are little girls as we'll as boys,)
and futter in the wind, and in many
cases the tiny tatterdemalions have
neither hat nor cap, and their hair is
prematurely gray with the snow that
lodges in it But they don't seem to
mind it a bit. Mind it! They rejoice
and revel in it, and laugh out loud,
though their noses are blue, and the
breath puffs out as white as steam when
they open their mouths.-London Society.

Winter Farm Economics.
From the Prairie Farmer.

There are 80 many things that the
farmer may do at home, in his " work
shop, as we'll ~ another can do it for
him, that it is surprising that 50 few are
without a kit of wood working tools, a
shoeing hammer, some horse nails, pinch
ers for iron, copper rivets, screws, and
other necessary articles, as will enable
him to complete many q handy job with
out the intervention of the carpenter.
The time required to do the work will
often be found to be less than that spent
in going to and from the mechanics
place of business. Thus with a few tools
the wood work of harrows, plows, Guilt
vators, and other tools about the farm
may be repaired. By having a few ex-
ira handles of forks and other imple-
ments on hand, these may be cheaply re-
paired and made a. good as new.
Wagon tongues, and many other du-
plicates for farm vehicles and machines,
are now prepared 50 as to require but
little fitting. In the case of machines,
all that is necessary, as a rule, is simply
to fasten them in place. In doing this
the farmer not only renders himself
handy with tools, but at the same time
he becomes thoroughly conversant with
the working parts of each individual
machine-no small matter to the practi-
cal man.. In fact every farmer ought to
be able to take apart, and put together
intelligently, any machine on the farm.
unless this be the case, they cannot be
worked aseconomically - they should be.
While the farmer is thus educating
himself, he will come to see the necessity
and economy of having everything in its
place, and q place for everything, when
not in use, and when in use they will be
Just in place. So he will come to occupy
his leisure hours in repairs of various
kinds. Barn and stable doors that are
getting shaky IN their hinges will be re-
paired at once. If he burn wood, and a
large proportion of the farmers of the
west still do 80, it will be prepared, and
piled secure from rain, and with proper
ventilation, 30 it may dry perfectly. If
he burn coal, a proper shed will be built
to keep it dry. The pumps about the
place will always draw. Water troughs
will never have sloughs of mud about
them in soft weather, to MAIN them.
Sheds will be made comfortable. The
best facilities will gradually be accumu-
lated for accomplishing the work of the
farm, and a general air of thrift will be
observable, not only about the home
stead, but over the farm.
In this we do not mean to assert that
the simple possession of the tools neces-
sary to do odd jobs will accomplish eli
this; but the handling of tools soon gets
. common man conversant with
their use, and the investigations neces-
sary to enable . man to do the labor in
diligently, broadens the mind, and one
soon ONE to see where money msy be
saved in many directions, and how. easy
it is to make all things tidy about the
house and place, and also, where the
profit Gomez in, in rendering the stock
about the farm comfortable.
These may seem like small economies.
! In truth they are; but it is these small
