Which Horn OF the niIemmaY
Washington Capital. I

The infamous Henry Ward Beecher has
been again preaching a political sermon, in
which he tickles the ears of his over fed and
under taught congregation. 1t was full of
sickenlng subserviency to the wealthy classes
and contempt for and abuse of the poor. This
oily man of God, who has been paid eDor-
mously for his service in fetching the teach
ings of Christ into contempt says in this ser
mon at the mouth of hell, that "a little star
vation may be means of grace now and
them" and compares the hungry laborers
clamours for work to the gathering OF flies
about q sugar hogshead. The bondholders
and monopolists can not with prudence,
during these threatening times, add insult
to injury, and they had better pull down
their lamp posts or suppress their preacher,
for the one suggests the other.

AGRICULTURAL.


Be shy of patent, high-priced implements
of all kinds.
Many farmers in Indiana have planted
from four to six acres each in artichokts
orhogs.
II farmers would dress their land better
they would soon be able to dress their fam
lilies better.
Everybody should keep this important
truth fully engraven on his mind-a poor
price, and is one of the sure signs of mis-
management and poverty Of soul.
Men who have farmed for eighty years
almost universally testify that they learned
more of the business IL the LAST forty than
in the first forty of their lives And yet
many think it is easy to learn farming.
President Wilder, of the American pomo-
logical society, says he should never use tar
of any kind as protection against mice with
out first wrapping the stem OF the tree in
cloth or other material to keep the tar from
contact with the bark.
Cases frequently occur where man who
successful preacher. But it never occurs
where he is too INDECENT to preach that he
ever becomes a successful farmer. That rule
will not work both ways.
Salt in the Garden.-If cabbages do not
head properly, pinch of salt TO each head
will be beneficial; or better give them a
slight watering at night with weak brine
say one table spoonful of salt to one gallon
OF water. This may be repeated later in the
season. A single watering with quite weak
brine is also excellent for watermelOns.
about the time the fruit is setting.
well known horticultural ediaor says
the objections against watering when the
sun shines on the plants is a purely theo-
retical one, and appears only in the writings
of those who have but little experience.
Nevertheless, the evening is the proper time
for watering when the best results in the
conservation of moisture are expected.
Actual experience has taught that plants
whiting from the effect OF heat should be
shaded as well as wate red. Experience has
also taught that superficial waterings do but
little good The water given should reach
the roots OF the plants. The great objection
to watering under hot sun is that the ex-
halation is so strong that much OF the water
given is quickly evaporated.
With the larger animals the periods of
CESSATION vary materially. Age appears to
have some influence, old animals usually
going longer than young ones. The popular
notion that males are carried longer in the
womb than females is not borne out by our
observations In the case of mares the vari-
alton is greatest, and with COWS next de-
creasiug as we descend the scale of sizes and
periods. The longest and shortest periods of
CESSATION and incubation given in the an
nexed table are of rare occurrences:

OLIvER's CHILLED PLOw.
A Visit to it's Immense BraDch-SOme
Fact. Concerning lis Imnense Sale.

The wonderful success of the Oliver chilled
pillow since its invention and introduction
about seven years since by the patentee, Mr..
James Oliver, has been unparalleled in the
plow trade of this country. The novelty of
construction and the cheapness of the plows
was assigned ty rivals as the reason for Its
unparalleled sale and rapid introduction, but
they freely predicted that when the novelty
wore off and the farming community became
convinced that no chilled pillow could prove
durable, the demand would cease, and James
Oliver and his wonderful piow would become
things OF the past. Remembering these pre-
dictions made several years since by leading
steel pillow manufacturers, the Senunel rep
resentative concluded to call upon Mr.. II. b.
Dickson, the state agent, at the immense
warerooms in this city at Nos. 191 and 1913
South Meridian street Centennial block, and
learn the status of the trade III Indiana and
elsewhere at this time.
Mr.. Dickson was cat home and full of
chilled pillow information, and kindly piloted
the way through the wilderness of plows that
filed the three stories and basement OF the
immense warerooms of over 800 square feet
of floor capacity. This immense repository
is only one of the branches of the main
works, which are situated az South Bend,
Indiana. Similar branches are located in
Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Texas and other
states.
The spring trade in Indiana this year was
fully % per cent greater than last, and when
it is considered that over z 900 plows were
sold from this branch alone lest year this in
crease is wonderful The books show bona
fide sale of over 1900 plows from this branch
this last spring, and the fall trade, which is
now at its height, shows an increase of over
so per cent over the corresponding period OF
last year. Mr.. Dickson reports collections
very fine. Fully 70 per cent. of the spring
sales have been paid already. many OF the
payment.

made at the beginning of the year that the

An Oriental traveller describes this busy
scene, witnessed on historic shores: "Our
steamer landed on a beach, which was
the port of Antioch, where the disciples
were first called Christians. There was no
town at the waters edge, no people. no
wharf. The passengers and tie merchandise
were put ashore in lighters, which ran up
into the sand. A troop of camels, with their
drivers, lay on the beach, ready to transfer
the goods into the interior. Among the ar
tices landed were boxes marked DIR. J. c.
AVER Il Co Lowell, Mass, U. S. A. show
ing. that they contained medicines and
whence they came. These, with other
goods, were heisted on the backs of camels
for transportation to Antioch. Thus the
skill of the west sends back its remedies to
heal the maladies of populations that in
habit those eastern shores whence our
spiritual mamma came" - Windsor (Vt0

Pall1c countenance was the very type of
rudy healih-the delight of the school and
the pride OF the household. She was always
welcome wherever duty or pleasure led her
Diligent, punctual and exemplary in the
class room, obedient aud loving at home,
she won the hearts of all But alas those
glowing cheeks and lips are now blanched
by consumption. The voice once so en-
chanting in laugh and song is feeble, husky
and broken by hollow cough. Let APP
proach her couch aud gently take her blood
less hand in our own. Do not shudder be-
cause of its feeble, passionless grasp. The
hand once SO warm and plump shows its
bOnv outlines, while the cords and tortuous
veins are plainly mapped upon its surface.
The pulse that bounded with repletion, i'm
parting beauty, vlvacity, health and strength
TO the system, is delicate to the touch. The
enervated heart feebly propelS the thin,
scantY blood. Must we lose her while yet
so young and so fair? No. There is relief.
But something more is required than the Oh
servance of hygienic rules, for enfeebled
nature calls for aid and she must have it.
Administer this pleasant medicine. 1t is
inviGorating. 1t allays the irritable cough,
improves the appetite and digestion, and
sends a healthy tiDgle through her whole

increased, and the heart bounds with a
new impulse. Her face brightens-the blood
is returning; her voice is clearer, and her
requests are no longer delivered in that

strength is rapidly returning. Let us take
her out in the warm, life-gIving sunshine.
In few weeks she will go without our aid.
and be able to join her companions in their
pleasant psstimes, and feel her whole being
warmed and expanded into per!ectli life. The
change is so great that we think she is
sweeter and nobler than ever before. And
the medicine which has wrought this trans
formation we look upon as blessing to hui

rescued from the grasp of the insidious de-
stroyer. DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
