How TO Utilize Table Refuse.

A correspondent of the american
Poultry Yard describes his method as
follows: First, Il proper feeding pail
is an absolute necessity to successfully
prepare the refuse of the table and
kitchen to make it proper food for
fowls. Get Il hardwood pail, or ask
your grocer for hardwood butter
firkin shaped like pail. Cut board
to fit into the chine firmly on the bot
tom of the pail, and thick enough to
project an eighth of an inch or more
beyond the end of the slaves, so that
the pail may rest firmly on the bottom
instead of on the ends of the slaves.
Fasten in place by few nails driven
through the slaves into this false bot
tom, which may be of pine, as it is only
to keep from bursting out the bottom
of the pail by chopping in it. If you
cannot get a hardwood pail, put anoth-
err false bottom of hardwood inside of
pine pail, nicely fitted and secured
like the under one. Grind the edge of
a common spade sharp, and you have
an admirable chopping knife, and will
be surprised to see how quickly you
can chop fine all scraps and waste of
every kind, cooked or raw vegetables,
chicken bones, and everything except
beef, pork or mutton bones; these save
by themselves and put into stock
soup kettle, with all pieces of raw meat
or cheap meat from the market, and
keep it on the kitchen stove as much of
the day as you can induce your bet
ter half to let it remain. After boil
ing several days some of these large
bones will chop fine with the other
waste, and can be used as fast as they
become soft. Chop up the waste each
morning, adding meal and shorts
enough for a breakfast for the flock;
scald the whole with the soup from the
stock kettle, adding once each week one
of the following articles, for each TWEEN

onions, one-half pint charcoal, one

Symmes' Hole.

Now that the son of Capt. Symmes,
of Hole fame, is pressing his father S
theory upon the attention of the Gov
eminent, it is of interest to see what the
original propounder of the Hole
theory had to say about it. There is on
file at the office of the Secretary of
Pennsylvania a printed circular from
Capt. Symmes to the Governor of Penn
sylvania, of which the following is a
literal copy:

A YOUNG gentleman from the north
ern part of the State was attending the
college here, devoting himself assidu-
ously to the study of medicine. He
was progressing favorably with his
studies, when he one day received a
message calling him home to the death
bed of his sister, a beautiful young
woman, the JOY and the pride of the
family. He Immediately responded,
but only to find that the march of the
dread destroyer could not be stayed,
and in few days, after seeing the re-
mains of the loved one consigned to
the tomb, he returned, mourning for
the dead but hopeful for the living, to
his studies. Soon, in the pursuit of his
studies, it became necessary for him to
again enter the dissecting-room and
take his share of a subject which
had been prepared for the class of
which he was member. Advancing
to the table, he prepared to assume his
part of the duties. The subject, he
had been told, was a female, beauti-
full young woman, and an excellent one
for the period of study to which the
class had arrived. For a moment the
remembrance of his lost sister was
brought wildly before his mind, and,
dropping silent tear to her memory,
he thanked God that at least she was
safe, and, nerving himself to his task,
prepared for the work. Drawing the
cloth from the body, he raised the dis
secting knife, and was about to plunge
it into the body, when his eye fell upon
the face, and, turning pale, he uttered
an exclamation of horror and fell faint
ing to the floor. 1t was the body of
lbs dead sister
A day later the train to the north
bore the young man to his home, de-
termined never again to enter a medi-
cal college. He had abandoned the
study and the profession forever. The
perpetrators of the deed were after
ward arrested, tried and sentenced,
and are now in the Penitentiary. Ann

Art Alteration.

1t takes a strong stomach to stand all
this modern babble about Art''-to
see people of culture paying thousand
dollars for an imitation Japanese vase
who would not pay ten cents for pho.
tograph from Leonardo, or five dollars
for a cast of one of Barye's lions. To-
day it is art and decoration;'' yes
terday it was the old mania; the day
before it was "Boston Unitarianism, -
whose "pale negations' Emerson, in
his latest essay, treats with Emersonian
scorn. 1t takes, we say, a strong stom-
ach to stand the art affectation of these
days; and yet it is worth while to stand
it, for it means, here and there, as by
accident, opportunity for the genuine
artist--and the greater his individual
opportunity for the education and for
the display of his genius, the stronger

To Catch GudgeOns.

A new wonderful butter compound"
has been discovered, and the circulars,
emanating from an obscure town in
Massachusetts, are flooding the coun-
try. These circulars state that tins
compound will cline many pockets
with a golden reward; 1.-THE butter
cannot be detected from cream butter ;
" it costs only four cents per pound" {;
and I" it can be made in five minutes in
any kitchen" The circular also in
forms us that it is composed of 'pure
and healthful ingredients" Of course
the dodge is to get agents to sell the
compound. The agents pay their mon
ey; those who wish to get "pure butter"
for four cents per pound pay their mon
ey and thus another great benefit is be-
slowed on the dear people, at least that
class who are eager to get something
for nothing. Nevertheless, it is hardly
probable that pure butter will soon be
made at half the price of common caul
fat of Texas steers. -PrGirie Farmer.
