The Proper Time for Strengthening


1t has been discovered by French chemist
that the flesh of animals which are killed in the
latter part of the night will keep much longer
without sailing than it will when they are
killed in the day time. This proves that the
flesh is better fitted tor keeping when the life
and blood are taken from the animal at the
time the temperature is the lowest and respir-
alton is the least active. Hence the reason
that the flesh from animals that have been
highly heated or hard driven will scarcely keep
at all.
1t is no new discovery that the meat of ami
mails killed after rest will keep better than that
killed Immediately after exercise. As animals
rest 10 the night, the meat will, OF course, be
better in the morning.
The reason why the above fact is so, is this !:
Exercise draws the blood to the extremities
aud distributes il through all the veins. After
rest it gradually returns to the vtals, and
circulates more suggishly. Of course, if an
animal is then killed, the arteries, and large
veins being cut, the blood is at once emptied.
But, if he is killed while the blood is at the
surface distributed through the small veins, it
will not be discharged. As blood corrupts
sooner than flesh, the meat spoils.-Prairie

Sharp sned Tools

The good mechanic works with well-sharp-
ened tools. 1t he does not, be will not sue
coed. The farmer who works With sharpened
intellect stands in the same relation to success
in his profession as does the mechanic who
works with sharp tools in his trade. Thus
the progressive farmer buys the best imple-
ments he can get; breeds up his stock to the
highest degree possible, and gives them the
best possible conditions and food bis means
will admit. He succeeds, while, On the other
land, the farmer who does not believe in pro-
gress, first mortgages bis farm, aad, perhaps,
at last loses it. The reading and progressive
man may indeed mortgage his farm; he may
have i'll success for some causes beyond his
control; yet he has altogether the advantage
over the non-reading man since he is constant
ly kept posted 10 what is coming up new, from
day to day. His intellect is more acute, and
keeping posted from week to week upon prices,
and the various items of news relating to his
profession, he is enabled to take advantage of
circumstances that the non-reading man can
not compass. It. pays to take good agricul-
tural paper.

Gold at Par.

Hurrah! hurrahi
For COLDS at par;
Hurrah, too, for resumption!
The yellow king,
With clipped wing,
Is dying OF consumption.
For many year
Of bull and bear
The sport and will commotion,
You're now down fiat;
And glad of that
Are all, we have notion.
No greenback craze
OF former days
Shall gam raise your ambition;
Bonanza kings
And silver rings
Are now without mission.
A dollar is
Just what its phiz
Sets forth, and not ha'per,
Nor less nor more
Though it you draw
In silver, gold or paper.
Then, hip! hurrah!
For COLDS at par;
Coed times are surely coming,
Good Christmas cheer!
A happy New Year!
With trade of all kinds humming!

wide reputation, and has always, as 1t is doing
clans, nurses and medicines.
The epipemic of 1878 will be famous for the
organization of q new philanthropic organiza-
ton, named after another great philanthro-
pist-Peabody. This latter association enters
a new field OF labor in our times of calamity
Leaving the sick to the noble and generous
ministrations Of the Towards, it proposes to
relieve the immediate wants of the destitute
OF the CITY, who, by the suspension of busi-
ness and industry, are left without the ordi
nary means to supply themselves and fami-
lies with the commonest necessaries Of life.
The extent of the restitution. want, misery
and actual hunger which, in this season Of
epidemic, actually prevails even amongst
the middle classes, is not generally realized
The Towards are providing for the sick and
dying. But until the organization Of the
Peabody Association there was no organiza-
ton to supply the want of the destitute and
miserable poor. We have In the Peabody AS
ISOLATION such an organization now, and in
conjunction with the Towards, it will make
the most perfect and glorious system of
public charity ever known.
The Peabody Association proposes to re-
lieve the needs Of the destitute of all classes,
denominations, races and orders in our COM
munity It is blessed work it has un-
dertaken, and much needed work There
fore let everybody contribute to the full ex-
tent of their means in money and provisions
to this new organization.
