BVdh Helps Good Boy.-A good boy
of twelve, having tear in his eye and
lump in his throat. shied in very
quickly and informed Bijah that he
had composition to write for school,
but no one would lend him a helping
hand. His father hadn't time, his mo-
ther was sick, and his big sister could
not even write love-letter.
ga composition on machinery is
it?" observed b ah as he reached for
his pen, "My sou, I've written millions
of compositions, and I'll help you out
with the greatest of pleasure. l will
now begin;
There are several kinds of machin-
cry, one of which is Windmill. If it
wasn't for the Windmill the world
would soon return to bar barism. A
boot Ick cannot be classed as machin-
cry, because it has no escape valve. The
same may be said of an extension table.
Among the greatest inventions in ma
chinery may be classed the engine, To-
comotive, saw-mill, cider-press, buck
saw, jews-harp, hair brush and hand
organ. If il wasn't for machinery we'd
all have to walk around with our hands
in our pockets, and the price of admis-
sion to the circus woulG be $50. We
must all give credit to inventors. We
must speak kind words 10 them, never
steal their woOd-piles, and if they Gle
we must feel very sad. This is all about
machinery, except that the man who
invented the horse-raddish-g crater nev-
er received half praise enough. Good
bye-love to ALL"
The boy was delighted. A present of
five dollars wouldn't have made him
half as happy.
''It'll beat the stockings ofi'n any
composition ever read in our school,"
he chuckled, as he received it.
"I-I flatter myself it will," replied
BIjah, as he stroked his chin in a self
satisfied way, "and hope that the NOR
al that runs all through it. and sticks
out in every chapter, will have a good
effect on teachers and scholars. Good
by, my son-remember that the good
boy is always rewarded"

AROMA OF COFFEE. 1T is well known
that in the process of roasting coffee
many changes take place in the COM
position of the berry. The horny
material becomes brittle, and the tannin,
sugar, and fat are partly destroyed, and
the oil of the coffee driven off by the
heat. As it is to this latter ingredient
that the pleasant aroma of coffee is due,
it is important to retain this as much
as possible, which may be done by in
Producing pieces of dry bread, together
with the coffee, in the rooster, which
will absorb the vapor of the oil like a
sponge; and, as il becomes heated TO a
less degree than the coffee beans, serves
to condense this vapor. When the coffee
is ground the bread is TO be ground up
and prepared with it, increasing to a
not tiuconsiderable degree the excellence
of the coffee. The proportion of bread
TO be used is quarter of pound to
three-fourths OF pound of coffee. The
coffee, when roasted, must be kept in 2
closed vessel, as well filled as possible.
To keep roasted coffee for a long time,
and prevent the loss of its aroma, it is
recommended to sprinkle over the bean,
while still hot, white loaf sugar. in the
proportion of about three-quarters of a
pound TO twenty-five pounds of coffee.
This completely envelops the bean with
a layer of sugar and preserves its aroma.

TEMPER OF THE HoRsE.-It is recon-
mended that in purchasing a horse it
should be borne IN mind that there is a
direct relation between the horses fore
mead and its disposition and qualities.
The face must be very broad between
the eyes, but it should taper little as
it approaches the ears. If the breadth
is carried all the way upwards, the top
of the head will be too wide, the ears
i'll set, and the horse probably sulky.
As in the human being, so in the horse
a great deal of the expression of the
countenanee depends on the eye. 1t is
Il most marvellous index to the working
of the wind within. A glance at it will
often reveal the benevolent feeling, the
sulky disposition, or the vicious propen-
sity that is about TO manifest itself. The
reason of ali this must be most obvious,
when we remember that it is in direct
communication with the brain-the
material instrument through which the
mind operates. The eye of the horse
should be kindly, strong, bold and fiery,
vet, gentle looking. Ii should not show
much white, as that often Indicates a
vicious disposition. A horse that is
looking back so far as TO expose the
white of his eye is generally on the alert
for mischief, and is not 10 be trusted
with his heels. The eye gives strong
Indication both of the temper and tenn
peratement of the animal; and it is easy
10 judge from it whether activity or
sluggishneSs prevails most.

DOMESTIC.

EGGs.-As food, eggs are exceedingly
nutritious. They are easy of digestion,
and when the shell is included, they
may be said TO contain in themselves all
that is required for the construction of
the body. Ii has been claimed for them
that they may be served in about 600
ways, although Ii is generally found
that the more simple they are prepared
the more they are approved. Although
other eggs than those of birds are eaten
for instance, turtles eggs-it is
generally conceded that the eggs of the
common fowl and of the plover possess
the richest and sweetest flavor. An
ordinary hens egg weighs from one and
a half to two and half ounces avoirdu-
pois, and the quantity Of dry solid
matter contained in it amounts 10 about
TWO hundred grains. In one hundred
parts, about ten parts consist of shell,
sixty of white, and thirty of yOlk. The
white of the egg contains larger pro-
portion OF water than the yOlk. 1t con-
tains no fatty matter, but consists chiefly
of albumen in a dissolved state. All the
fatty matter of the egg is accumulated
in the yolk, which contains relatively
a smaller proportion of niTrogenous
matter, and a larger proportion of solid
matter, than the white. 1t is said that
raw eggs are more easily digested than
the cooked ones. A hard boiled egg
presents a decided resistance TO gastric
solution.

SwELLED LEGS IN HoRsEs.-Partial or
local debility is generally the cause of
horses legs swelling over night in the
stable. When swelled legs occur in a
horse that is thin and Impoverished, de-
biiity must be counteracted TO promote
a cure by feeding somewhat literally.
1t is aided also by giving tOnics. such as
half a drachm OF powdered sulphate of
iron, and two drachms of powdered gen
tian root, mixed in the food cure daily.
Smart hand-rubbing and bandaging
should be employed, for which purpose
strong wooden cloths of any kind may
be made use of, but flannel forms the
belt bandage, when evenly and firmly
applied by means OF roller four yards
in length, and four inches in breadth.
Such bandage may be applied every
evening as long as needed. Its applica-
tion should always be preceded by smart
friction of the limbs, and instead of
fastening them with strings it is better
TO use strong pins.

HUMOROUS.

AN AsToNIsHED ENGLIsHMAN. - A
young Englishman stopped at tavern
in Nashville, Tenn, where he got into
conversation with native Tennessean.
AS usual. he boasted of everything
English in comparison with Yankee
products. Finally he got to talking
about English cheeses. He said it was
very common to see cheeses in England
weighing LOCO pounds each.
"Pooh ~ exclaimed the Tennessean,
"my father keeps a dairy ten miles
from this place and supplies all the
large taverns. He never thinks of
making cheeses of less than one ton
weight"
"You can't put that joke on me-" said
the Englishman, lsughing.
''Ask the landlord" said the Tennes-
sean.
The landlord was accordingly applied
to, when he replied:
81 never weighed his cheeses, but l
know that the old man runs, at the
bottom of the hill on his place, two saw
mills, which are driven the whole year
round by the whey which runs from
his cheese pressv'
"Will you be so kind as to order my
horse?" quietly remarks the English
man.
