HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

II viii be apparent to any one, who will ex-
anime Solid Gold Watch, that aside from the
necessary thickness for engraving and polishing,
a large proportion Of the precious metal used
is needed only TO stiffen and hold the engraved
portions in place, and supply the necessary
solidity and strength. The surplus gold is act
ually needless so far as utility and beauty are
concerned. In James Boss Patent Gold Watch
Cases, this waste of precious metal is overcome,
and the same solidlty and strength produced at
from one-third TO one half of the usual cost of
solid cases. This process is OF the most simple
nature, as follows: plate of nickel composition

two plates of solid gold soldered one on each
side. The three are then passed between polish

INDISPENSABLE.

The Peruvian Syrup, which is now so
popular, deserves its renown, because i,
has proved itself to be Indispensable to
all invalids. There is nothing like it to
bring mp the weakened powers of a man.
The stomach, which is compared to tue
"citadel, is at once acted upon by it.
Its powers arc renewed. its work of di-
gestion is promoted, and all the blessings
resulting therefrom are supplied by its
use. Food is assimilated to the system.
and it, in turn, is strengthened to do its
normal work. The business man whose
energies have been run down by over
close attention 10 business; the PROBES
sional man suffering from the same
cause; the seeker after pleasure who has
made too heavy drafts upon his stock of
health, are all benefited by its use. In a
word, the use Of the Peruvian Syrup is
recommended to all who feel the ap-
preach of lassitude and weakness from
whatever cause. Sold by Jones x Schal-
lern.

AGRICULTURAL.
SELECTED FROM THE PRAIRIE FARMER.

The department of agriculture reports
that the direct losses to sheep owners by
the ravages of the dogs reach $1,000, 900
annually in wool and mutton. The indi-
rect loss in preventing sheep husbandry
in many districts, especially the South,
and consequent waste of large percen-
tage of the grass crop, may be probably
placed at double this sum annually.
NECTAR ICE.
Crush half pint of red raspberries,
and sprinkle over them cup of white
sugar. Mix very small tablespoon of
corn starch with little water and a cup
of sugar, CRATE in the yellow rind of two
lemons, and one oragge, and pour three
cups of boiling water over all; cook until
it thickens, then cool, and add the strain
ed raspberry juice, and that of the lem
ons and orange. Freeze, and put in the
whites or two eggs beaten stiff, an hour
after packing in ice; beat up once in the
meantime.
KILLING CABBAGE WORMS.
1t is said that cayenne pepper sprink-
led over cabbage plants is sure proven
tive of worms, destroying them, and will
not injure the plants. 1t would proba-
bly, be more effectual if light tincture
were made, and the plants lightly water
ed with it. The surer way, however, is
to catch the mother butterflies, with an
insect sweep net, which any one may
make by attaching bag of millinet two
and-half feet long to stout hoop, and
attaching three feet handle thereto. In
this connection, correspondent, NJ. V.
l.. A., Morrisonville, ILL.,, writes:
"My experience with the green cab.
bage worm was of benefit to my neigh.
bors as well as myself On their first
appearance, there were hundreds. ]
busted black pepper over them before
the dew was off. After the second APP
plication, only twelve worms remained on
40 heads of cabbage. I sent them to
bug heaven by rubbing turpentine on
their backs with feather, and now our
patch is entirely unmolested."
Some person has started the story and
it has been copied in eastern journals to
the effect, that, ga curious plant has been
discovered i'll Wisconsin, which produces
a kind of cotton and fax from the same
stalk. 1t has been already woven into
fabrics, and any article that will make as
| good cloth as can be made from this
plant, will make good paper; hence it
las been called the paper plant. 1t can
be planted in the spring and cut in the
| fall and winter. 1t bleaches itself white
as it stands, and will yield at least three
or four tons to the acre. From single
root that was transplanted last spring,
there grew 20 large stalks, with 305 pods,
containing the cotton, with at least &C
seeds III each. From this root were OBJ
! tanned seven ounces of pure cotton, and
over half pound of flax. 1t is a very
heavy plant, and grows from six to seven
feet high" Tt is curious that so little
has been heard from it at home. A won-
derful plant indeed that produces both
flax and cotton, but not more wonderful
than the average agricultural item which
the average agricultural reporter fol
some of the city dailies usually dish up.

(Boston Traveler.)

At a recent meeting of church officers
in New Hampshire, to consider the causes
of difference between a minister and a
portion of his congregation, an old farmer
summed up the causes of complaints
against him substantially as follows.
Our pastor is very fond of music ann
sometimes, when traveling on his parish
work, he sings his favorite tunes, and
sometimes he whistles them. Then he
loves a joke, and sometimes when one is
thrown in his teeth he cracks it. He has
a good appetite, and he eats beefsteak or
Goldfish just as he pleases, without consult
ing his congregation. And, worst of all,
ne believes minister has political rights,
and has voted as he pleased not asking
permission of anybody. All Of which
was the narrator's facecious way of saying
that he had been so undignilied as to whis-
tie; that he went occasionally to the near
est market and purchased fresh meat,
while his neighbors fed on salt pork or
salt fish, and that in a closely y-contested
election he had voted as he pleased.

How Sheridan Escaped.
TTemnlp BAR.

The author of the "School for Scan
dap became favorite guest at all the
Wing palaces, though at first, according
to Tom Moore, the Duchess Of Devon
shire was reluctant to extend her hospi-
tality to "a player"--a curious objection
from the friend of Garrick. She had got
over this hesitation when she once kept a
house at Bath, taken at enormous expense,
empty for two months, because she and
her party could not tear themselves away
from Sheridan's society at Chatsworth.
Her friendship stood him in good stead
when, after taking his seat in the House
of Commons he attempted the more diff
ficult entree of Brookes' Club. One black
ball then excluded candidate, and Lord
Besborough and George Selwyn were de-
termined to keep Sheridan out. The
Queen of the Wings, however, was
equally determined to get him in; and
aided by Fox she sent messages to Sheri-
dams two opponents announcing serious
illness in their families. Each, supposing
the other would be in his place to give
the fatal ball. obeyed the summons, and,
returning in hot haste after discovering
the ruse, found Sheridan duly elected, re-
ceiving the congratulations of his friends.

Port and Pembrekeshire.
TTemnlp Bar

There is a curious story connected with
port wine and Pembrokeshire. During
the occupation of Portugal the gallant
Picton protected the cellars OF large
proprietor and wine merchant, in whose
house he was quartered. The grateful
Portuguese wanted to force very hand
some sum on the General, and was in
despair when it was refused. "Can | do
nothing to make yeu remember my graft
tude? said he. "Well," said Picton,
"there is one thing that | in my turn
should be grateful to you for
eff any Of my friends at home send
you an order for port, will you send
them the wine you have been giving me
every dayw The merchant was delighted
and when Picton told his story at home
the choicest and truest brand found its
way to the cellars of many Squire in
the shire; and by degrees there was
corner in small inns from whence a rare
bottle could be produced. But nowadays
London porter and Chancellor claret have
supplanted the generous port and mighty

Something of a Speculation.

Astronomers tell us that if there was a
telegraphic wire from the earth to the
nebula in Andromeda, it would take r,2so
600 years for adispatch from here to reach
its destination. And suppose the rate
was forty cents, and you sent the message
to be paid at the end of the line, how like
all eternity the interest would pile up on
the other fellow by the time the boy
handed him the message. Figure it up,
