with iron handles screwed on at

ed bpa regular and copious use
of absorbents. 1t is better to use
these freely and abundantlv than
to permit any odor or moisture;
and it IS important that al rain
or surface waite be excluded.
With these precautions con
stantly observed, it Will answer
to place these closets near the
dwelling but as a matter of
safety, III S Of the carelessness
OF occupants or servants, it may
be better to give greater space
between them. To prevent ex-
posure in winter, the walk should
be thanked with evergreens,
which may also extend over head
and form a sheltered avenue, a
plan for which is shown by the
walk on the left leading TO the
boundary of the vegetable gar

KITCHEN Stops.
When these impure slops have
been discharged SO as to pass IN
der the dwelling, typhoid fever
and other diseases have some
times been the result. The most
fatal effects have arisen when
portions of these slops have found
their way, through leaks, into
the water used for drinking.
When they have been dis
charged into an offensive
puddle at the kitchen door,
the effluvium is less poisonous,
as the sunshine and wind di-
minish the deleterious effects.
1t has long been a pulling pro-
blem to devise some easy and
safe way to get rid ofthese Stops
at country residences, one of the
difficulties being the careless
ness of the hired "help." If
they could be induced to carry
these Stops several yards from
the door, and discharge them on
the grass, selecting ne0 spot
each successive day, the remedy
would be nearly perfect.
Another mode is to provide a
large underground drain, ex-
tending several rods distant, and
discharging in a large under
ground reservoir, where theearth
will gradually absorb all impure
matter. If the surrounding
earth is insufficient to absorb
all, the reservoir may remain
open, with only a cover against
ram. and be filled with dry
loan, road dust, coal ashes, or
other absorbent, which is shov-
eled out and drawn away before
it becomes saturated. Wherever
this mode is adopted, or an IN
derground drain is used, there
should be a trap at the kitchen
sink, or at the place where the
Stops are poured, to prevent the
bad air from the drain from en-
tering the house Or poisoning
the premises.
Another mode, which may be
adopted where the owner can
give personal supervision to see
that it is faithfully carried out,
is to place a large tub (half of a
kerosene barrel answers we'll at
the kitchen door, and fill it with
coal ashes, road dust, OF other
absorbent, to receive the Stops.

LIFE rs TOO SNORT.
Life il too short to waste

Life is too short to waste
In unavailing tears,
Too short to spend in bootlcss grief,
In coward doubts and fears.
Too short to give it mp
To pleasure, or to SOW
One hour in guilt, to yield at last
Eternity of woe.
Time lags not on its way,
But spans out days in haste;
If life should last n thousand years
'Twere still too short to waste.
For, short-lived as we are,
Our pleasures yet we see
Vanish soon, they live, indeed,
Fen shorter date than we.
But ever with us here
Bides sorrow. pain and care;
The shortest life is long enough
Its lotted grief to bear.
To the old the end is nigh
To the young far of it seems;
Yet neither should dare to toy with life
Or waste it in idle dreams.
For by each Times servant waits,
Though not for servants wage;
And the same worm nibbles the bud o
youth
That gnaweth the root of age.
Live, therefore, as he lives
Who earns his share of bliss;
Strive for the prize that virtue wins,
Lies not too short for this,

Washington special to the Cincinnati
Enquirer: Judge Lea, who is Attorney
General of Tennessee, got off a good
thing before the staid Judges of the
United States Supreme Court to-day,
and actually they unfurled their wrink-
les enough to laugh. Lea proceeded to
argue the case of Davis, revenue Offic-
er, who killed man in Tennessee in
the discharge of his duty, and who ap-
plies on a writ of certiOrdrS to have the
cause removed from the State to the
Federal Court, Lea, as prelude, said
that he hoped that the Attorney General
would not carry the question of civil
rights into the case, inasmuch as the
people of Tennessee were extremely
lOyal-in fact, so much so that its Su-
preme Court had decided that under the
fourteenth amendment it was no offense
to play cards with "nigger."
