Cooperative Farming.

An experiment in cooperative farming
has been tried IN England. Several years
ago Mr.. Brand, speaker in the house of
commons, announced his intention Of
taking his laborers into partnership in
the profit of his extensive farm of $40
acres. The result ct the experiment
shows that cooperative farming is not
likely to3prvoe successful. In theory,
the laborers should have been inspired
to more hearty and inthusiastic labor by
a plan which promised them a share in
the net profits, besides their regular
wages. But in practice, no result of this
sort was noticeable. They took their
wages right along, and such pickings as
they could get, and didn't bother their
heads particularly about Mr.. Brands
complicated bookkeeping and the ledger
entries of profit and loss. Under the old
system, indeed, there. was arather strong
er stimulus from self-interest than under
he new. The farmer who leased the
and of the landlord had distinct con-
tract which he had to meet, land was OF
course interested in making as much as,
possible in addition. He made, in turn,
the contracts with the laborers in such
way as to get the most aud the best out
of their labor. Under the cooperation
system the profits Of the farm fell of
considerably, indicating that the system
is,not likely to prove successful. - Leaois-

Serenity in Death.

Perfect serenity in regard to death is
not attained by any effort of the will, nor
by any mere process of reasoning; tits
rather the result of happy combination
of bodily and mental conditions. The
chief of these conditions. the assured
hope of future beyond the grave, in
comparison of which the brightest eatrhly
visions fade like candle before the dawn,
is not given to all; and in these days, es
pecially, it is for many overshadowed, if
not altogether blotted out, by doubts and
questionings which can no longer be hid.
den from the multitude. Even to those
who most earnestly cling to the hope of
Immortality, it would seem that our
troublous. inheritance of sympathy must
cast many distressing side-light upon
prospects in which of cid the faithful
we're able to take undisturbed delight.
However this may be, the mere prospect
of prolonged existence beyond the
grave, apart from other reasons for Joyful
confidence, must be taken rather as en-
larging the scope of our hopes ana our
fears than as necessarily altering the pal
nee between them. Habitual hopeful
ness may color the prospect beyond the
grave with the same glowing tints which
it throws over this world, so that in some
cases the same cause which makes life
delightful makes death not unwelcome
Such state of mind, though rare, is not
unknown. But perhaps perfect bal
ance of feeling is more readily to be
found at lower level OF expectation

Novel Mode OF Furnishing Criminals.

The penitentiarv management, aeter-
mined not to be outdone by Edison. have
introduced electricity as mode of pun
ishment. The statement having been
made that prisoners exposed to this pun
ishment suffered more than they did by
the use of the ducking-tub, reporter
called at the prison and was shown the
method Of punishment by Deputy War
den Quin and DR.. Drury, the prison ply
sician. The electric apparatus is in a box
ten inches in length, three inches high
and three inches wide. It contains an
electromagnetic. The prisoner is taken to
the ducking-box, formerly in use in the
insane department. He is stripped and
blindfolded before coming in sight Of
the water box, and is then led around a
corner Of the interior cell building, and
placed in the box, handcuffed, but not
shackled at the feet. The room is warm,
having fire in it day and night. He sits
down in water three inches in depth
One pole of the battery is placed in the
water. A sponge is attached to the end
of the other pole.
Deputy Warden Quin superintends the
punishment, which consists Of touching
IuC UdlC Sh1u VI CuC CluN1Cl III various
places with the sponge. "A prisoner turns

paratus. The concern is so small that it

the prison. DR.. Drury says this mode OF
punishment does no harm. In some cases
he says it is physical benefit. The pun.

Life's CHEEKY Autumn.
RUTH,

I wish that any one who fancies life at
forty is necessarily gloomy, would read
the noble sermon by that most noble
man, Albert Barnes, on "Life at Four
score" Such CHEEKY, inspiring, heavenly
views are good for body and soul. With
good health and even measurably easy
circumstances, forty may be the very
golden autumn Of life. The little chill
dren are probably now grown and sound
sleep can prepare one for the days duties
and helpful older ones relieve the mother
from many cares. A good woman in any
neighborhood has an assured position,
and is priced in any community; and
this last adds not little to the pleasant
ness of ones condition. She has time
now for small neighborly charities,
which bless her own soul even more than
those to whom she ministers. Do not
dread the fortieth milestone, because the
bloom will depart. Many q woman is
far more charming at middle life than
size was in the rosy flush Of youth. Wis
dom, the result Of experience, and a
thoroughly kind heart will make wrink-
led cheek and silvery hair more beauti-
full than the fairest face which has the
''crow's feet" Of a sharp temper, or sim
full, censorious spirit. It is ourselves,
and not our age, that will make us happy
and admired, and better still, beloved.
Do not adopt the gloomy view even
when you have gone still further on the
journey. As Linda gave us a verse on
"Forty Years." let me give you another
on still later age:
"Just sixty two! Then trim thy light,
| And get thy jewels all reset,
IT'S past meridian, but still bright,
| And lacks some hours of sunset yet.
| At sixty-two be strong and true,
sooffthy rust aud shine anew

And fight fresh battles FOR the truth;
For what is age but youths full bloom,
