--SoMEBopY has discovered that
the growth OF vegetables may be
greatly facilitated by the use OF
lightning rods or electric conduc-

SPARKLING CHAMPAGNE.
Two Different Accounts of Its
Origin and the Reasons for Max
ing 1t.

ing 1t.
Champagne, like virtue itself,
will always have Its detractors; and
we have met with two different &C.
counts of the origin of champagne
one of which points to its essential
badness, the other to its intrinsic
excellence. "DO you know why
our wine il sweetened and made to
effervesce?" asked a cynical and
lying innkeeper in the champagne
country whose stock of champagne
had run out. "Because," he re-
piled, answering his own question,
sit is such vile stuff that unless we
disguise il no one would venture to
drink it," The commoner wine OF
the champagne districts is, indeed,
scarcely more palatable than that
"Drei-manner Vein" of Alsace, So
called because according to an
ancient story it takes three men to
drink it--one who holds the victim
in q chair, another who pours the
wine down the victims throat, and
the victim himself. But the best
growths of champagne, owing in a
great measure to the care used in
making them, are in their natural
or non effervescent condition, per-
feet. In turning them into spark
ling wine all that is done is to en-
dow them with a new grace.
A more likely story of the origin
of sparkling champagne attributes
its discovery to an accident. The
wines of champagne have a natural
tendency toward etfervescence; and
. monk of more taste than honesty,
who had distracted from cask in
the monasterial cellars some still
champagne, which he bottled for
his own private drinking, was
alarmed one night by series of ex-
plosions. Corks had been blown
into the air, and the stolen wine
which he had vainly endeavored to
keep in confinement was running
in froth and foam over the sides OF
the bottles. The terrified monk con-
cluded that the devil must have got
into the wine; but the prior of the
monastery, to whom confession was
made, knew better. He tasted the
wine, saw that it was good, deter
mined to bottle some for himself,
and ended by going through a Sc
ries of experiments which had for
result the discovery Of the true art
of making sparkling champagne

the war. Senator Window caught
him securely. He read from prin-
ted speech of Hampton's these
words: .sThat was my plank in the
platform. l wanted nothing else,
for when the great Democratic par

when they had declared that these
acts the amendments) were uneon-

Endorsement OF certain revolution

Hampton could say was that he

THE culture OF sugar beets IS
attracting a good deal Of attention
among the New England farmers,
Maine tried the experiment several
years ago, the State rendered some
assistance, and 1t proved success.
A good many New Hampshire
farmers are going to plant small
sections this spring, and in the
fall compare notes as to the cost OF
raising and the amount Of the
Weld. In Massachusetts, tho farm
ers OF the Connecticut River Valley
propose to go into the business on
. large scale this year, many of
them turning to beets from tobacco,
which has brought low prices of
hate years, while its continued Gull
tivation exhausts the soil at a ter
ribie rate. In Europe the culture
OF sugar beets has reached enor-
nous proportions, and about half
Of all the sugar consumed OH the
Continent is derived from that
source.
