Mind Your Own Business.

Nothing but ultimate ruin stares
that farmer in the face who does
not pay personal attention to the
minute details OF his farm. There
are a hundred small leaks about
the management of an ordinary
farm that, if not closely attended
to, will surely bring the most hard
working farmer to ruin and bank
ruptcy. A large proportion of the
farmers can attribute their present
condition to no other cause than a
lack of close attention to the small
details of the farm. Close supervi-
sion to the machinery, stock and
their feet, a place for everything
and everything in its place, No
hired help is as much interest in at
tending to these duties as the farm
er himself. Such a course would
in few months or years at most
enable many farmers who are now
on a down hull grade TO again begin
to ascend, and if persevered in it
will surely make Roadway against
what would otherwise look doubt
ful

THE MOVING.
The clock has struck Fix,

The clock has struck Fix,
And the morning is fair,
While the east in red splend5r is glowing;
There's dew on the grass, and song in
the air
Let US up and be off to the moving.
Wouldst know why wait
Ere the sunlight has cFept
Ger the fields where the daisies are growingl
Why all night 1ve kept my own vigils, nor
slept9 lE
7Tis to-day is the day Of the moving.
This day and this hour
Maud has promised to tell
What the blush on her cheek was half
showing.
If she waits at the lane, I'm to know all is
well,
And there'll be coed time at the moving.
Maud's mother has said,
And III never deny,
That girls heart there can be no knowing.
Oh, j care not to live, and rather would die,
If Maud does not come 20 the moving.
What is 1t sect
IT'S a sheen of brown hair
In the lane where the peoples are blowing.
Thank Godl it is Maud-she is waiting me
there,
And there'll be good time at the moving.
Six years have passed by,
And freely declare
That scarcely have noticed their going;
Sweet Maud is my wife, with her sheen OF
brown hair,
And we had good time at the moving.

A Mean Man.

Once upon a time, according to a
correspondent Of the Chicago Trib-
une, Jake Mason went to a dona-
ton party where six farmers were
to contribute jug of milk apiece.
We'll, one man, very mean man
this man was Jake Mason-thought
it would not make any difference if
he contributed water in place of
milk. So he filed his jug with wa
ter and took it to the donation.
When he got there he turned it
over the bung and 1t ran into a bar
rel where all the other farmers had
poured their milk. Now what do
you think was the result? Why,
every one of the six farmers hap
pened to be as mean as Jake Mason.
They had all brought water.

Why Lace is so Costly.

The finest specimen of Brussels
lace is so complicated as to require
the labor of seven persons in one
piece, and each operative is en-
ployed at distinct features of the
work. The thread used is of ex-
quisite fineness, which is spun in
dark underground rooms, where 1t
is sufficiently moist to keep the
thread from separating 1t is so
delicate as scarcely to be seen, and
the room is so arranged that all the
light admitted shall fall upon the
work. 1t is such material that rem
ders the genuine Brussels lace so
costly. On a piece of Valenci
ennes, not two inches wide, from
two to 800 bobbins are sometimes
used; and for a larger width as
many as 500.

Answering Literally.

Literal answers are sometimes
quite witty. "Will you kindly put
my fork into a potatoY' asked a
Young lady of her table nelghbor.
"With pleasure" he responded, and
piercing the potato, coolly left the
fork extended from it. Again, we
hear OF a very polite and impressive
gentleman who said to youth in
the street: "Boy, may inquire
where Robin sons drug store isT
sCertainly, sir" replied the BOY
very respectfully. 'EWell, sir" said
the gentleman. after waiting awhile,
s.where is itT' 81 have not the least
idia," said the urchin. There was
another boy who was accosted by
an ascetic middle aged lady with,
''Boy, want to go to D. street"
"Well, ma'am," said the boy "why
don't you go there, then?" Some
times this wit degenerates into
punning, as when Flora pointed
pensively to the heavy mass of
clouds in the sky, saying, 81 won
Ger where those clouds are going%
and her brother replied, 81 think
they are going to thunder" Also
the following dialogue: EHallo,
there, how do you sell your woodY
by the cord" How long has it
been cut?p "Four feet" Il mean
how long has it been since you cut
it?" No longer than it is now"
And as when Patrick OFlynn was
seen with his collar and bosom sad
iy begrimed and was indignantly
asked by his officer: patrick how
long do you wear shirt?" "Twen-
ty eight inches, sir" he replied,
with an air of inimitable drollery.

The CaIlfornia CONSTITUTION.

The new constitution of CalIfor-
MIA has the very wise provision that
there shall be but two elections
every four years. This is step in
the direction of economy. There
have heretofore been five elections
held every four years, which cost
the taxpayers $2,250,00O. Under
the new system the cost will be
100000. The Courier Journal says
the example of California in this
respect could be advantageously
adopted in other States, where the
numerous elections are exceedingly
costly. They interrupt business;
they demoralize the people. The
fewer the better-for the tax payers
at least, if not for the professional
politicians.

A Woman Cured by Prayer.

The quiet village of Stratford has
been having little sensation on its
own hook in the healthy way. The
matter has been kept very quiet and
until now the particulars of the
case have never been made public.
A widow of that place, aged about
forty two, has been confined to her
bed for about three years with a
painful disease, contracted. as is
supposed, by oyerwork. She has
been treated by a number of prom
lnent physicians without success,
and had almost despaired of relief,
Hearing of the prayer cure of Mrs.
Mix, of Welcottville, she began
thinking about calling on her
for assistance, and had made up her
mind to do so, when the thought oc-
Cured to her that what Mrs. Mix
could do by prayer and faith she
also might do by the same means.
She resolved to try the experiment,
and for about a week prayed that
she might be made whole. At last,
she claims, her prayers were an
swered. She felt a peculiar thrill
run through her, and Immediately
she arose from her bed
and walked. She called out and her
friends and neighbors rushed iD,
and were surprised by the sight OF
The sick woman standing upon her
Iong unused foot, and able to walk.
Ehe lady afterwards attended
manifesting great joy over
ler sudden recovery. This was
about three weeks ago. and she has
since remained as well as ever.
She had been under medical treat /
nent in New York and New Haven,
nut had abandoned it some time be
ore her sudden cure Bridgeport,

An absent minded farmer drove
down TO the village the other evening
with his wife, and, after leaving her
at a neighbours, discussed politics
In one of the stores till 10 o'clock.
Then he drove home, put up his
horse and went to bed, concluding,
as his wife was not in her usual
place, that she might have been
called out TO watch sick neighbor.
Just as he was dropping off to
sleep however, he recollected where
he had left her, and, rising hastily,
he harnessed the horse and started
after her. She had got tired of
waiting, and was walking home
when her absent-minded husband
met her.

Unoleached cotton cloth is now

Man relies far more than he is
aware of for comfort and happiness
on woman's tact and management.
He is so accustomed to these that he
is unconscious of their worth. They
are so delicately concealed, that he
enjoys the light and atmosphere.
He seldom thinks how it would be
with him were they withdrawn.
He fails to appreciate what is so
freely given. He may be reminded
of them now and then, he may com
plain of intrusion and interference,
but the frown is smoothed away by
a gentle hand, the murmuring lips
are stopped with a caress, and the
management goes on,
