II am extremely desirous,' says the
ex-Prenier of England, Mr.. Gladstone,
in his recent speech, ''that this persuit
should be propagated and extended
among you. j love it for its own sake !;
it is delightful to see the country smil-
ing with cottage gardens; it gladdens
the eye and it gladdens the heart. In
fortunately, a great many of our mod
ern pursuits tend to make this earth,
which God has made so beautiful, abo-
minable and ugly. Now, garden, be-
sides being beautiful itself, is a sign, a
sympol of good habits; for example, in
the first place, those who keep their
gardens tidy and nice will try TO have
their houses tidy and nice; and if a
house be poor, much depends upon
those who inhabit it, for a poor house
inhabited by a tidy woman is often
more eligible than a superior enc in
habited by one who is not tidy. You
know how important it is that a
house and everything about it should
be kept tidy-how much is has to do
with the peace and comfort of IA
mily."

only three trials in the water; but the
Lieutenant states that when he COM
manded Circassian regiment in the
late war he had no difficulty in easily
persuading horses to take to the water,
and on one accession in the Danube he

The start was fixed to take place at
five O'Clock, by which time our West

lieutenant had commenced his swim and

The DOrnOuse.

All our young readers know well the
common mouse, and many have, doubt
less, seen the field mouse; but the DOR
mouse is probably known only to a few.
The shape of the head and body of this
pretty little creature, proves that it is
some relation of the gray-coated pilfer-
er from our larders, but its somewhat
bushy tail shows that it is also akin to
the nimble squirrel. Like the squirrel,
the dorInouse has its home in our woods
and thickets, but it is so shy and timid,
that we are not likely to see it unless
We come upon it during its long winters
sleep. The dormouse is very small, its
body being less than three inches in
length, and its tail about two inches
and half. Its color is light reddish
brown on the upper parts, end nearly
white on the under. So rapid is it in
its movements that the eye can scarcely
follow 1t as it runs along the lower
branches of the trees, or leaps abou.
among the grass and leaves upon the
grain, and like the squirrel, it often
takes its food between its forepaws and
sits upright to eat it. A pretty, round
nest of grass, with a lining of moss and
lichens, is built by the dormOuse be-
tween the forked branches of low
bush, or within hollow tree. In this
it places quantity of food, which it
busily collects during the autumn
When the cold weather comes, it rolls
itself into ball, by curling its tall over
its head between its ears, and falls into
a deep sleep. In this state il remains
through the greater part of the winter,
only waking up now and then when the
air is unusually warm, and eating
small quantity from its store of food.
Creatures which, like the dormouse
pass the winter in state of sleep or
torpor, are called hibernating animals.

There are in Chicago no less than
twenty large tinware factories, sup
plying the whole West with kitchen
ware, one of them even exports certain
lines of tin goods to Europe, from
whence the tin comes, and gives occu-
patton to MANY hundreds of hands. But
it is all mistake. The ware called tin
is only wash of tin over sheet iron.
As well might we speak of plated ware
as being silver. We learned something
novel recently about tin while looking
in at metal store and listening to the
courteous salesman. We learned that,
while our extensive country produces
nearly all metals, from gold to lead,
there has never yet been discovered a
tin mine. Should one be found, may
we be there to see, and take "A few
shares In il. Tin is used for various
purposes other than for Britannia
ware. The fine black cloths we get
from France are colored by a solution
of tin. The most beautiful red colors
in carpets are made by chemical pro-
cess which requires pure tin in the
composition. The best and most reli-
able tin is imported from the Dutch
East India Island of Banca. Ii is Ia
ken from Banca to Rotterdam, and
there sold by auction at semi-annual
sales, and from there finds its way to
all parts of the civilized world. Next
in quality is Malacea or Straits tin, so
named because it reaches us through
the Straits of Malacca. A small guam
tity comes from China, but the Celes-
tials have so many ways of cheating
that their tin is very unpopular Our
English neighbors send US great guam
titles of their Cornwall tin, and they
pronounce it superior to all other, but
while it is pure, it is not so softas Ban
ca, and Brother Jonathan prefers the
latter. From South America we re-
ceive small supplies, but its quality is
inferior and very drossy, Our imports
of tin and tin plates during the last
fiscal year. amounted to Sl2, l12 ,532,
while in 1873 they were SIS, 1856 ,653.

How TO GAIN FLEsH.-Ccrn meal is
fattening, also hOminy, rye and un-
bolted wheat flour. Oatmeal contains
much more flesh forming material than
fine flour. This well boiled, without
much stirring, and eaten with cream
and baked sweet apples, and brown
bread, makes a good breakfast. Sweet
apples, boiled whole, impaired, adding
sugar, are nice. Nuts are rich in vegeta-
ble oil, and eaten as dessert for dinner,
instead of pastry, are wholesome, but
should not be eaten between meals.
Eggs are rich in fat, but boiled hard or
fried in grease are worse than nothing.
Some people are constitutionally pre-
disposed to spareness and nothing can
make them fat. But, in addition TO the
right kind of food and a happy cheerful
state of mind, the surest way to in
crease flesh is TO exercise but moderately.
Lie down great deal. No posture is
so favorable 10 the gaining of flesh as
the recumbeDt. Sleep as much as you
can; one gains flesh when he sleeps.
Lying on a stTetcher or hammock out
OF doors in the shade (the world for
getting, is better than activity. Keep
the air of your room pure at night.

Tools FOR You've PEoPLE.-Buy tools
for your boys, and if you have no boys,
buy for your girls. Ii will not harm
any girl to learn TO drive a nail or saw
board, aud do it well; and if she
knows how, she will, without doubt,
many times find it convenient-no
matter what may be her fortune In life.
For every one it will be great advan-
tage TO cultivate mechanical skill-nO
one has too much of it. Nothing will
be handler or more acceptable, on more
occasions than one, than to know how
to use few common tools. To begin
with, the outfit need not cost over SO
but We will say s25. For this he may
buy square, a jack-plane, a smoothing
plane, hand-aX, hammer, draw-shave,
some dividers. bitstock and bits, half
dozen chisels, a bench screw, a few
files, whetstone, hand saw, rip saw
and serewdriver. a small bench he
can make. Then, with the rest of the
S25, he can buy little wire, an assort-
ment of screws "a few of kind), an as
sortment of nails and a small quantity
of pieces of board of various dimensions.
The tools should be of good quality. In
little time some of these will be lost
or broken, but what of it? So is money
lost and thrown away. Ii is a profita-
bic training for every one to learn TO
use money properly. To learn they
need TO begin early, under good instruc-
ton. Twenty-Five dollars in money
may be spent in a thousand ways for
things which will do less good than the
tools. Although this may seem TO some
a large amount to pay for tools, $25
would be considered small item as an
inheritance for young man. Then
buy the children some tools and they
will learn to make many playthings for
themselves, and be less likely to get into
bad company. They will be happier,
they will have a stronger attachment
for home and a greater love for parents,
and these are priceless fortune TO any
young man or woman, fortune which
cannot be lost by any failure of banks
or depreciation in real estate.
