Animals Understand Our
Language.

Animals have more capacity to nu-
derstand human speech than is gener-
ally supposed. The Hindoos invariably
talk to their elephants, and it is amaz-
ing how much the latter comprehend.
The Arabs govern their camels with a
few cries, and my associates in the
African desert were always amused
whenever | address remark to the
the big dromedary, who was my pro-
perty for two months yet at the end
Of that time, the beast evidently knew
the meaning Of a number Of simple
sentences. Some years ago, seeing a
hippopotamus in Barnum's Museum
looking very stolid and detected, |
spoke to him in English, but he did
not open his eyes. Then | went to the
opposite corner and said in Arabic, |
know you; come here to me" He
instantly turned his head, and there
npon he came to the corner where |
was standing, pressing his huge, I'M
calmly head against the bars Of the
cage, and looked in my face with a
touch of delight while | stroked his
muzzle. | have two or three times
found a lion who recognized the same
language, and the expression Of his
eyes, for an instant, seemed positively

Something must be provided also for
the maintenance of the family in the
event of the death of the money-earning
member of the household. This part
of the work belongs to the man, be-
cause nature has fitted the men for its
performance. On the other side diff
ferent but by no means less important
task is set. A home must be made
where life may be pleasant and whole
some and profitable where the child
rem may grow up pure in mind, where
their character may be formed for life,
where their domestic affections may
have full play for the amelioration Of
life, and for the growth alike Of the
father, mother and children i'll all that
goes to make life worth living. This
home-making and home-ruling belong
by nature and right to the wife. How
helpless a man to accomplish it every
man and woman know by observation.
A well-ordered, wholesome home is
something that money will not buy,
something that cannot be hired. The
Importance Of its creation and mainte-
nance in the life work of man and wife
is not second to that Of bread-winning,
and will never be so while the truth
remains that man does not live by
bread alone.
The woman who faithfully discharges
her functions does her full half Of the
Joint work of man and wife, and, as
her husband is not less concerned than
she in the results of her success, so she
if equally concerned with him in the
successful management Of his part of
the common task. The home that the
woman makes is not hers alone, but is
the common possession of the pair !;
and on the other hand, the fruits Of
the mans labor are equally common
possession. If loss comes it is the loss
of both. Ruin in business affects both,
as ruin in the household does
1t is an utter and lamentable mis-
conception, therefore, to regard the wife
as beneficiary or dependent of the
husband, or to regard the money that
she uses as Il gift from him. 1t is her
money as well as his, and in spending
it she spends her own. If two men
are engaged in business together as CO.
partners, the one conducting the oper-
ations while the other keeps the books,
nobody thinks of regarding the book
keeping member of the firm as a de-
pendent upon the other, although he
actually brings in none of the money
returns of the business.
This is the only view of the relations
of husband and wife which sound
reason can take, and it is the view
actually taken, we are persuaded by
the great body of reasonable husbands
and wives.

One day last week, as a Griswold
street lawyer had just finished lacking
up sign of " Shut this door" where
he thought it woald do the most good,
an oldish man, having sour express
sion on his face, came up stairs. The
instant he saw the sign he said:
"All bosh, sir-all bosh. / never
pay any attention to such signs"
But other people do" replied the
lawyer.
LET 'em do so, then. am just &C.
centric enough to leave your door open
when | 60 out"
And so he did. He walked once or
twice around the room, made a few in
quiries, and left the door wide open as
he walked out. When he had reached
the street a boy overlook him and asked
him to return to the room on impor-
tant business. He climbed back up
stairs, and the lawyer asked him:
Did yon leave your gold-headed
cane here?"
"No, sir-here it is" replied the
caller, as he held 1t up.
All so it is. | was just eccentric
enough to think that this stove poker
was your gold-headed cane AL right
no harm done-good-bye."
When the stranger went down stairs
he left the prints Of his heel on every
step.

NO pRuNKARps THERE.

There is beautiful land, we are told,
With rivers ofslver and streets of gold
Bright are the beings whose shining feet
Wander along each quiet street;
Sweet is the music that fills the air.,
But no dTtu,kdTds are there
No garrets are there, where the weary wait,
Where the room is cold and the hours are late {:
No pale-faced wife, with look of fear,
Listens for the steps she breads to hear.
The hearts are free from pain and care
No dTu1kardS are there.
All the long day in that beautiful land,
The clear waters ripple DER beds Of sand;
And down on the edge ofthe waters Drinks
Those white-robed beings wander not shrink,
Nor fear the power ofthe tempter's snare,
For no l0irle is there.

Men, Women and Money.

In any true view of marriage the
man and the woman are necessarily
partners in the fullest sense of the
term, Their interests, financially and
other, are identical They have one
home, one family, one life, and what
ever affects one affects the other equal
". Their buainess in life, has two
sides to it. Upon one side money must
be earned in some sort of active bust
ness for the support of common house
hold, for the education of the children,
and for their proper settlement in life.

The Fruit Growers Association of North

fair grounds, in the city of Raleigh, on the
Sth, 9th and 10th days OF September, A. ID.
1880.
1t is the desire and Intention OF the So
ciety to place on exhibition on this occasion
the fruits of every county IN the State, and
to make sure of accomplishing an end SO de-
sirable, arrangements are being perfected
with the different railroads IN the State to
pass, going and returning, free of charge,
one person from each county in the State,
who will take the pains to collect specimens
of the different kinds of fruit in his county,
and place them on exhibition on this occa-
sion. This arrangement being accomplish
ed, it IS believed that the exhibition will far
exceed anything of the kind ever made IN
the Southern States, besides the impetus
given to this important industry, and the
much good resulting therefrom will, In a
word, be unreasonable
In behalf OF the society, and all persons
who see and feel the Importance of awaking
the people of the State to a just apprecla
ton OF our advantages as a fruit growing
section, the best, IN my opinion, IN the
Union, | appeal to every intelligent gentle
man and lady In the State to give us every
aid and encouragement within his OF her
power to render this occasion one worthy of
our dear old State and the Importance of
the industry, the cause of which we seek to
advance. nope to be able Wi hin a short
time to announce more definitely In regard
to the matter OF free passes over railroads
and other lmpOrtant matters connected with
the exhibition. That the people of every
county in the State may be appraised of the
intentions and purposes of the society, we
are under the necessity of asking the differ
ent newspapers of the State to insert this
short notice and such others in the future
as we may deem important to carry out the
objects of the society.

DRIED FRUIT.-The Southern States send
forward some of The best fruits hat reach
the Northern market, and In North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia the
curing of fruits. both wild and cultivated,
has grown to be quite an industry and
source of profit. So great Is the range and
so varied our resources that there Is al
ways something that may thus be converted
into capital, as the occupants gives pro-
ftable employment to a large number OF
feeble persons-women and children-it will
continue to be popular.
Driers generally will enhance their own
interest by giving strict attention to the fol-
lowing points: Take good care to dry the
fruit as nice as possible, having it free from
grit and litter of all sorts in sending it away
put all Ofa sort together that each package
may be uniform in quality throughout send
off none tn 1t is not we'll dried pack in new
or at least in clean barrels, and do not mix
different kinds in the package. By atten-
ton to these few simple rules your fruit will
always command the best market price, and
will readily sell, whereas if these hints are
neglected you will find, as you should find,
that there is very little money in dried fruit.
Most fruits sell best for having a bright
color. Ii the weather is fair and hot and you
gather the fruit before it is fully ripe,
this bright color is easily secured. Clean
new boards will tend also TO give it a better
color. APPLIES should be cut thin, as they
dry quicker, but will not weigh quite so
much perhaps. Peaches may be cut into
eighths, quarters, or halves, and dried as
rapidly as possible. Cloudy weather spoils
this fruit unless you can have a drier. This
fruit should always be peeled. Blackber-
ries, cherries and huckleberries should be
particularly well dried, as they are very
liable to mold and turn sour if not. The
cherries should be pitted, as the unpitted
hardly pay for the labor of drying them.
Different varieties Of cherries may be mized;
so also may blackberries and dewberries.
Dried raspberries and plumbs are more or
less in demand, and also strawberries. In
fact the list OF dried fruits and vegetables is
being increased year by year. Each family
Should dry whatever fruits may be within
reach, whether wild or domestic; and
blackberries and huckleberries may be made
quite a source of profit in many instances.
If there is much fruit on hand, it would be
best for the family to buy a patent drier, or
evaporator, for fear the weather may be
cloudy and unfavorable for curing at the
proper time. Indeed, it is claimed that
auring by evaporation is a much better way
than the old process of un-curing-but of
this we do not know. Wherever the amount
of fruit will justify We would recommend the
purchase of a drier.
