SroP THE LEAKs.-One leak on nearly
every farm may be found in the neglect of
the agricultural implements. In travelling
over the country it is no unusual sight to
see ploughs, harrows, wagons, sheds, reap
ers, mowers, etc, piled in the fence corners,
in the fields. lanes, barnyards and public
highways. Whenever you see things piled
around in this way, yon can set it down
that there is at least one leak on that farm.
An excuse might be found for some far
mers of limited means, that they are not
able to build shelters for their implements;
but we find the same leak on farms where
they count their acres by the hundred, and
their dollars by the thousand. And of
course the larger the farm, the greater the
leak. We believe a careful estimate of the
annual shrinkage thus incurred by some
farmers would astonish them, and show
Why farming does not pay.

ARM, HEAD ANE SHOULDER SENTENCED.
"A correspondent tells a story about Judge
Kent that is interesting. A case of bur-
glary was being tried before him. The
prisoners name was Cowtlry, and the evil
dence showed that he had cut hole
through rubber tent in which several
persons were sleeping, large enough to ad-
nit his arm and head, and had distracted
several articles of value. His counsel took
the ground that the prisoner having only
reached into the tent, had not "entered it,"
and that on this technically the defendant
should be discharged.
In his charge to the jury, Judge Kent,
with grim smile, alluded 10 the plea of
the prisoners counsel, and instructed them
that if they were in doubt as to the whole
man, they might bring him in guilty as
far as they judged the evidence would
warrant, and the jury, after brief period
of consultation, brought in verdict
against Thomas Cowdry, the prisoner at
the bar, of guilty to the full letter of the
indictment as to his right arm, his right
shoulder and his head.
And the Judge sentenced the arm, the
shoulder and the head of said Thomas
Cowdry to Imprisonment at hard labor in
State prison for the term of two years
The prisoner might do with the remainder
of his body what he pleascd.-Bangor

"1ou will see a strange sight, think,
to-day" said my host, as we were prepar-
ing to set out to church, which was close
by. And, indeed it was strange sight
Far off in the distance l could discern
number of objects moving swiftly down a
mountain slope; there were about thirty or
forty, as far as l could make out, in ALL
What they were l could not at first con-
ceive; but presently they again came in
view, and could see that they were men,
women and children, of all ages and sizes,
skating. 1t was "christening Sunday"
and several of the women were carrying
their infants on their backs in an ingenious
ly-contrived kind of a basket, without
apparently suffering any inconvenience
In the far North, indeed, my host informed
me, the Lapps, who are very skillful skat-
ers, and punctilious in the discharge of
their religious duties, bury their children
in the snow outside the church, while
they, the parents, attend the service. Do
not start, reader! The reason is that their
cries might disturb the congregation and
it is far warmer for them underneath the
snow, wrapped up in "pelt," or skin,
than in the church. A trustv dog is sta
toned near them, to keep off the wolves
should any be providing about in the
neighborhood.- Chambers Journal.

THAT there was q tune III the his

it strange, and | interviewed the cash

4 CHURCH or two in the Western
country have established telephones
leading from the church building,
tnat is, from the preaching house, to
the residences or homes of aged and
infrm members, who cannot attend
preaching, and by that means minis
ter to the spiritual wants, as far as
the singing, praying and preaching
can minister, to the spiritual wants
of the old people who are no longer
able to attend the meetings. 1t is a
fitting recognition to the oller mem
bers, who one day We're the active
people CT the church. Of course a
telephone cannot make up for the loss
OF actual attendance, where the mag
netism of congregation itself is in
spring neither can it make up for
the failure of the members of the
church to visit the ageipeople of the
fl 0ck, but il is a great deal better than
neglect. OF course The Eastern States
believe that they should set the fash
ions for the Western States, but in
the matter of church telephones for
old people the East may proftably
adopt the fashion of the Western
people.

An interesting Jewish newspaper,
called The Rsn aey and JeTish Times,
published at l20 William street, New
York. les on our table. In consider
ing the question Of Jew and Chris
tan, among other things, it says:
To forbid or prevent our children
from mixing in Christian society is
really tantamount to telling them
that we fear their religion has such a
slender hold upon them that we are
afrail to trust them i'll situations
where the influences and teachings
of that religion would have to be ex-
erted. On the whole, It is, perhaps,
better that one in a thousand of our
people should marry out of our faith,
than that the other nine hundred and
ninety nine should be denied the val
liable priviie ges and undoubted ad-
vantages of social intercourse with
the world
1t is not to be denied that inter
marriages with Christians are objec-
tionabie and to be avoided, but we
have too much confidence in Judaism
and las professors to fear that such
intermarriaSes will ever become com
mon, or that the few which do occur
will exert any general influence for
evil upon our people, If they exert
any evil influence at all outside of the
family Immediately Interested Ii
our religion is so weak that it cannot
stand by itself, but must continue to
be boxed up in its own narrow circle,
then our religion is very poor one
for our present circumstances, and
was only good SO long as we lived by
ourselves; but il, as it is much more
reasonable to believe, our religion is
strong one, which, except in few
isolated cases, is able to withstand,
as it has for ages withstood, all world
IL Influences, then We must admit
that American Jewish society is doing
great folly and a great wrong In
strengthening and rebuilding bar
riers between itself and other classes,
which it should be the aim OF all in
tellisent and progressive people to
tear down and destroy The time
has come for enlightened Israelites to
decide for themselves once for all ii
they viii form part OF modern soci-
ETY. or if they vii continue to be So
cially as well as religiously peculiar
people. There can be no halting
half way There may be among some
people a feeling against the Jews
Just as there exists among others a
feeling against Catholics, but all the
weight Of evidence is against any
deep-rooted general anti-Jewish pre-
judice on tie part Of our Christian
fellow-citizens.

THERE is something droll in the
effrontery of the Democratic leaders.
In Ohio Ewings friends are making
the campaign on the charge that the
Republicans are e. Ieavoring to starve
the army while the Democracy want
to pay it in full. This is certainly a
nice dodge, when it is considered that
IN the debate of the army bill the
ridicule of the Federal soldier was a
common piece of jocularity on the
