sary amount of food, his system has
to fall back on the carbon it has
stored in the form of fat, and he
must necessarily lose in weight, at
his careless or thoughtless owners
expense.
Hogs should also have a good
supply of water, salt, coal and ashes.
Salt is a valuable stimulator of the
appetite and digestive organs.
During warm days in the winter,
the feed should be regulated ac-
cOrding to the temperature, just as
we would regulate the fuel accord
ing to the demands of the weather.
When the weather suddenly be-
comes warm, animals lose their ap-
petites and are liable TO become

food, as slop or vegetables Of some

There is no amusement more at
taineble, and certainly none more
satisfactory. than that which is de-
rived from the perusal of good
hooks. They are companions OF
whose society we never grow wea-
~, and they have this advantage
over other friends; they are always
accessible and never intrude upon
us when we wish TO be alone. With
i'm the compass of a small library we
have the richest and most select
thoughts of the learned and the
gifted of all ages. There the poet,
the philosopher, the historian stand
ready to amuse and instruct us and
vet, how seldom do we consider this
blessing as we should? Few of us
comprehend how greatly we are in
debted to the art of printing for
some of the most pleasurable mo-
ments of our lives. In conversation
with our friends, even the best of
them, we are almost certain to de-
generate into frivolity and nonsense,
but i'm silent communion with the
gifted ones upon our book-shelves,
our thoughts are elevated, our ideas
enlarged, and our lives ennobled.
What a solace to those of us whom
circumstances Lave thrown upon our
own resources is god book. Tho
confined within the walls of a mar
row home, we are free to follow the
armies OF the Crusaders; we are
free to ramble in the forests of mer-
ry England before the Conquest or
TO wander amid the wonders of old
Rome, and the riches of Persia. We
can visit all lands with our own
Bayard Taylor, or explore strange
and uudeveloped Africa with Liv-
ingstone; yet all the while rest in
our easiest chair by our favorite
window. We see the Pyramids
building, we hear the shouting of
armies and feel the ground shake
beneath their tread I; we see the light
OF burning cities, and hear the
shouts of victory, as well as the
gentle sounds of pastoral life. Yes,
books are indeed the true Elysian
fields where the spirits of the dead
converse" and at all times we say
enter without fear. And where else
shall we find such company? With
ont undertaking friendship, or any
of the pleasures or sweets of social
lite, were we to recommend a friend |
for all emergencies, in sickness, i'm
health, at home or in exile, by the |
fireside or in camp, in youth or in
old age, we should say. take a small
library OF well selected and well |
tried books.

There is no domestic animal that
suffers so much from exposure to
cold and wet as the hog. He is q
native Of mild climate and should
be treated as his nature demands, il
we would turn his peculisrities to
our advantage. And during winter
he should be provided with warm,
dry quarters, plenty of warm, clean
bedding, and an abundant supply of
nutritious, fat and heat producing
food. For this purpose there is
nothing equal to corn, owing to the
large amount of carbon in it's CON-
position, which the hog appropristes
in producing fat and heat to warm
his system--the same as our stoves
consume carbon in the form of wood
and coal TO warm our rooms. The
colder aud more exposed these are.
the more fuel we are obliged to
consume 10 make them comfortable.
Just so with the hog; the less care
is expended in making his quarters
comfortable, the more corn he must
cousame to keep ur the animal heat,

We should not leave our souls tC
the ministers nor our health to tht
doctors. So the following simple
rules for the preservation of health
especially through the changesble
seasons of autumn, winter and
sprin4 should not be left entirely to
to health journals.
Never lean with your back agains,
anything that is cold.
Never begin to journey until
breakfast is eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
Immediately go out into the cold air
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulde: blades, well covered
also the chest well protected.
In sleeping in cold room estab.
lish habit of breathing through the
nose, and never with the mouth wide
open.
Never 60 to bed with cold or damp
feet always toast them by the fire
for ten or fifteen minutes before
going to bed.
Never omit regular bathing; for
unless the skin is in an active con-
dition, the cold will close the pores
and favor congestion and other dis
eases.
After exercise of any kind never
ride i'm an open carriage nor near the
window of a car for a moment. Ii
is dangerous to health and even
life.
When hoarse, speak as little as
possible until the hoarseness is re-
covered from, else the voice may be
permanently lost, or difficulties OF
the throat produced.
Merely warm the back by a fire,
and never continue keeping the back
exposed to the heat after it has be-
come comfortably warm. To do so
is debilitating.
When going from warm atmos-
phere into colder one, keep the
mouth closed, so that the air may be
warmed by it's passage through the
nose ere il reaches the lungs.
Never stand still i'm cold weather,
especially after having taken slight
degree of exercise and always avoid
standing upon ice or snow, or where
the person is exposed to cold wind.

Generalship in the Kitchen.

Says Alexander Hyde in the New
York Times. "We see so many far
mers working hard from the begin
ming of the year to its end, and that
year after year till life ends, with
such small results that we do wish
to impress upon the community the
true principle of economy, a farmers
wife once expressed to us in one
word--calculation. We found her
slender-looking woman, surround
ed by flock of children, and having
the care of dairy of dozen cows,
with no Bridget to assist her, aud
everything moved on like clock
work. The children were tidy, the
house neat, the cooking nice, and
the butter of gilt-edged quality.
We watched her to study the secret
of her economical management. She
never seemed to be in a hurry, cer-
tainly never in fret, but went from
one thing to another as calmly and
pleasantly as the butterfly goes from
one flower to another. We noticed
that she had every convenience for
her work. Water flowed constantly
in her kitchen and dairy-room, and
her churning was done by dog.
power. We were satisfied, howev-
er, that the secret of her efficiency
was not in churns, dogs, water, nor
any other conveniences for labor,
and we finally asked, "How do you
accomplish all your work with such
apparent ease?" With a toss of her
head and a pleasant smile she re-
piled: "By calculation. Before 20
to bed | set my table and make all
arrangements for breakfast. Before
[ get up in the morning | think over
the labors of the day, and plan ev-
erything out, assigning such duty
its time, and when the time comes l
attend to the duty-snd now the
time has come for me to skim my
milk,-please excuse me-" Upon
this she bowed herself out with the
grace of queen. We could not
help thinking-happy is the farmer
that has such help-meet!"

Tecumseh Journal says that par
ents who neglect the education of
their children really renounce for
them all right to the prizes offered
to intelligence, etc. The trouble
with many parent is, they have new
er understood what the relationship
implies. Affection aside, simple
justice demands that the child be
given such educational advantages
as he will improve and the parent
can possibly afford. A child who
takes to learning should be encour-
aged even at the cost of self-denial
on the part of the parents. They
who see clearly consider the ad-
vancement of their children q hun

The Coming Faith.

Said Moncure ID. Conway, in his
recent New York lecture: The time
is coming when the sum and sub
stance of religion will be to make
life more sweet and gentle, when
there will be no human being who
will care to look for higher relig.
ion to promote the happiness and
wisdom of the world. Would not
the power and wealth that has deco
rated the world with temples be
sufficient to circle il with happy,
beautiful homes il it was regarded
as the proper object? Humanity
has its scheme OF salvation i'm the
escape from present evil. A legend
runs, that when Mary was travelling
in Egypt and was weary of carrying
the child, a third hand grew out for
its support. So it is i'm the religion
of humanity; whenever there is
trouble there comes sustaining
hand. "The religion of humanity
has not the disadvantage of being
some new sect. 1t has been in ex-
istence many ages. l believe it is
the only religion that does exist
Whenever there is a Protestant
movement, and they are occurring
always, we hear the cries, mot Chris
tianity, but Christi mot Mahomet-
anism, but Mahomet,' mot Budd-
hism, but Buddha.' II is because
the teacher taught the doctrine OF
humanity, but the sects borrowing
his name have taken the form OF the
forces lie combatted. There never
was a prophet who did not teach
love and there never was a system
that did not teach wrath and ven
geance. So steadily as knowledge
and science advance supernatural
terrOrs will become more and more
grotesque. That Christ was a man
and not a thunder-god will be the
doctrine of Christianity. The ha-
tired of pain, the horror of asceti-
cisn, the detestation of evil, pas
sionate love for the right and for
beauty, higher virtue, an enthusi-
ssm for the good of his fellow-man
these are some of the attributes OF
the religion of humanity which will
flourish when all the petty creeds
are things to smile at.

tuckiam and Kentucky soldier, aud claim to

think have proved it whore those who would

dared not to venture.
You state THAT Kentucky did well, but or
federal soldiers were largely loyal negroes.
The rolls Of the rebel army would show that
she sent twice as many Of her whito sons 70

show no such thing, and II the editor would
examine them he would Rnd that he has owl.
IDENTIFY missed tho tru0 figures; they will
doubtless show that Kentucky furnished less
than 10000 con nicderAto troops, while the rolls
of tho federal army show that sho furnished
seventeen regiments of cavalry, one rvgimeut
ofartillery, flGty.hvn regiments of infantry,
six regiments of veteran cavalry aud eight
regiments of veteran infantry, making y total
m 07,6 $50 men, all white men. Besides this
