Balky Horses.

l once heard of an unfortunate gentle
man who had become insane, but was re-
stored to sound health simply by causing
the mind to make a sudden rcvulsion,
which was done by skillfullv causing
him to become jealous of his wife, who
was most excellent lady and aware of
the process. On this hint we might learn
to manage balky horse. He is insane on
the subject OF going, that is self-eyident
If we can manage to make him think on
some other subject he will naturally for
get about going and 60 before LIE knows
it. The following devices have been
successfully tried to accomplish the de-
sired end: First. Tying string around
the horses ear close to the head. Second
Hitching the horse to the singletree by
means Of cord instead of the tugs, the
cord fastened to the horses tail. Third.
Filling the mouth full of some disagree
able substance. Fourth. Tying stout
wine around the leg. JUS. below the knee
and then removing it when he has trav-
eled some distance. Never whip balky
horse, for the more he is whipped the
crazier he will become. Let everything
be done gently, for boisterous words only
confuse him and make him worse. Treat
him in the mild manner that you would
crazy man, and you will succeed.

Onions can be best grown upon the
same land repeatedly, year after ) ear, and
change Of fertilizers is.beneticlaI. At
ter barn yard manure has been used. poul-
try manure would be effective, and occas-
lonally a dressing Of phosphate Of lime
would be advisable: The best standard
fertilizer for onions is mig hts sell taken
out OF cecsDools, mixed with dry earth,
and left to stand a few weeks, until the
heap is incorporated. -Four or hive wagon
loads Of the night-soii, with twice its
bulk Of earth, would be sufficient for an
acre. Ten barrels ofpure poultry manure
mixed with an equal quantity of fine earth
would make fair dressing for one acre
of onions. AS onions are sown or plant
ed closely in drills near together, the
fertilizer Is best applied broadcast aud
harrowd or raked into the surface soil
By growing this crop repeatedly on the
same plot and using poultry manure,
night-soil and super phosphate of lime
alternately. the soil may be entirely free

Rules for the Government OF Chlldre,

First-Never give in to disobedience,
and never threaten what you are not pre-
pared to carry out. Second-Never lose
your temper. do not say never be an
cry. Anger is sometimes Indispensable,
especially where there has been anything
mean, dishonest or cruel. But anger is
very different from loss OF temper. Third
OF all things never sheer at them, and
be careful even how you rally them
Fourth-Do not try to work on their
feelings. Fifth-never show that you
doubt except you are able to convict. To
doubt an honest child is to DO all you
can to makea liar Of him; and to believe
liar, if be is not altogether shameless, is
to shame him. Slxth-lnsiil no relig-
ious doctrine apart from its duty II 1t
have no duty as its necessary embodiment
the doctrine may we'll be regarded as
doubtful. Seventh-Do not be hard on
mere quarreling, which like storm
is often helpful IN clearing the moral at
mosphere. Stop it by a judgment between
the parties But be severe as to kind OF
quarreling, and the temper shown in it.
Especially give no quarter to any Unfair
ness arising from greed or spite. Use
your strongest language with regard to
that.

During the winter evening, when the
children were engaged with their lessons,
our tame rat, Billy, was usually to be
found on the table rummaying among
their books and catching at their pens;
which latter amusement he enjoyed very
much after the manner Of a kitten run
nlng after knitting needle drawn quick
ly up and down the table, but as these
amusements rather interiered with the
studies, Billy would occassionly be dis
missed to the kitchen, to which be had
great dislike. He never stayed there
any longer than he could help, but on
the first chance would rush up stairs and
scratch, Or rather, / should say, gnaw for
admittance. Speaking Of tins Snawlng

that he was not driven to THEFT by hun
ger. I genera ~ scattered for Linn on the
shelves some grains Of rice CT pieces Of

he turned away in disgust, being far too
we'll bred a rat to indulge in such low
tastes; but he dearly loved Dit Of plum
cake; and, shall con 'ess it he was by
no means tcetotacr. If ale was used
at dinner, he would rush eagerly about
the glasses until he was supplied with
some in spoon. / believe, before he
came to US, he had been accustumed to
even stronger rotations, in which, how
ever, we did not indulge him. I have
said he was rot mischeviuu-, neither was
he, as mischief among rats is generally

A ZIG FISH STORY
1t Was Told by CaudsL Il ate for member
ship la the Sazerac Lying Club.

We were making voyage from the
West Indies to New York when the shin
fever broke out among the crew. One OF
the sailors, among the first victims. was
accompanied by his son, lad of fourteen
years, who was strongly sttached to his
iather, and remained with him dav and
night. and never could be persuaded to
leave his sick father for moment.
A large shark was seen every day fol-
lowing the vessel, evidently for the pu1-
pose OF devouring any one who should
die and be committed to the deep.
After lingering few days, the sailor
died. AS was the custom at sea. he was
sewed up in a blanket, and for the pur
pose OF sinking him an old grindstone
and carpenters axe were put in with
him. The impressive service of the
church was then read, and the body com
mitted to the deep.
The poor boy, who had watched the
proceedings closely, plunged in after his
father, when an enormous shark swollow-
ed them both. The second day after this
dreadful scene, as the shark continued
to follow the vessel-for there were
Others sick IN the ship--one of the sail
ors proposed, as they had 4 shark hook
on board, to make an fort to take him.
Iney fastened the hook to q large rope
and baitcd it with piece OF porl, threw
1t INTO the sea, and the shark instantly
swallowed it. Having thus hooked him,
by means of a windlass they hoisted him
on board. After he was dead they pre-
pared to open him, when one Of the sail
ors, STOPPING down for that purpose, sud
denly paused, and after listening few
moments, declared most soemnly he
heard a low cultural sound. which ap-
peared to proceed from the Shark.
The sailors, after enjoying hearty
laugh at his expense, proceeded to listen
tor themselves, when they were compell-
cd to admit they heard similar sound.
They then proceeded to open the shark,
when the mystery was explained.
1t appears the sailor was not dead but
III trance; and his SOD, On making this
discovery when inside the shark, had by
means OF his knife, ripped open the
blanket. Having thus liberated his faith
er, they both rightca up the Cd grind
stone--the boy was turning, the father
was holding on to the Old ship carpenters
axe, sharpening 1t for the purpose of cut
ting out OF, their Jonah-like prison, which
occassioned the noise heard by the sailor
AS twas the hottest season OF tic wear,
and very little air string where they

According to the Golden RuZe, few
people know the value of sweet apples
as food. 1t says: Baked and served
with cream, they make light and most
delicious dessert. Sliced, and used in
buildings Of various sorts, they save other
sweetening, and give grateful eIemer
of freshness to the dish. And this sug-
gests that one reason why baked apples

than this combination, the fact hash t

milk and sweet apples, for children and
people of sedentary habits, would be
better than the food which costs much
more than rany Of them now in

of lime water will prevent the unpleas-

achs. No keen appetite is required to
give relish to such a lunch, and no diges-
ton that is good for anything has any
trouble with it after it is eaten.
