SILKY PLOH GDN'Y (IIMIllI

In 1878 an attachment for common pl3w was
invented by practical farmer. that can IN ten
minutes be connected with any ordinary ploW,
which changes 1t at once into q complete sulhf
plow Ii consists of one large wheel whi,h runs
upon the land side, a smaller one under the beam,
and another that runs in the furrow bellhd the
pillow. These wheels carry the weight OF the plow'
entirely removing the friction upon nc bottom
and land side, one Of which, together with the up
right beam, regulates the Width and depth OF the
furrow. 1t is provided with an easy seat euaoilng
the driver TO have at all times both his ploW and
team under his control, once set, It's Work rs not
easily changed. The relieving OF the plow from
the side and bottom friction results in reducing
the draught over 20 per cent; even when carry
ing the driver the draught Is fully twenty Per
ce mt less than that Of the walking plow with the
driver trudging In the furrow behind. II can De
attached with equal ease to right or left-hAhd
plow and when properly attached, any one, male
or female, who is old enough to manage team,
can perform as good work as the most skl-i vi
plowman can do without II. saving OF 10 per
cent Of the draught is guaranteed
II is simple in construction, durable, easily az
tached to the pillow, and IN every was perfectly adj
Unstable 1t is attache by means OF clamps and
bolts, without cutting or boring the beam, nd can
be placed in position for a days or weeks pow
ing in ten minutes By any one with sense enough
to handle a common walking pl0w. In going to
or leaving the field the pillow Is raised Oy lever,
and the driver can ride as easily as on a.y Of me
expensive sllky plows. Its cost is 50 low that any
one having two or more acres - pow cannot
afford to be without one.

Of extreme antiquity.
Faueull Hall is supposed to have
been the original Solomon's Temple,
and Boston Common is known to be
tbe Garden OF Eden with modern i'm
movements. The Tree Of Life was re-
moved to make room for the Old Elm,
and the four rivers are represented by
the beautiful fountain which squirts
continually.
Boston was named in honor Of GER
tain cracker, which was made there in
great perfection by the pre-Adamite in.
Sabitants. And it retains the name
and the cracker to this day.
A certain Que of its poets, whose nom
de Dlua.e is Holmes. has called Boston
the Hub Of the Universe. Being the
hub. and also place where the risible
: muscles are never used, it may titly be
termed the center OF gravity. No one
lauQhs in Boston, and whoever would
smile rust 90 into bar.room to do it.
The streets in Boston are unlike the
one in Damascus which was called
Straight. When laid out, far back in
|, the carboniferous period, the street
commissioner did not heed the injunc.
tion of the "Great Expounder:' Ye
solid men Of Boston, drink no strong
rotations" And so the lanes and
avenues of the town stagger about after
the similitude Of a rams horn.

pot; pat on the cover, and twist the
pot by the handle; when it begins to
freeze, take off the cover, scrape the
pudding down the sides, and work it
smooth with the ice spattle; cover again,
and proceed as before, stirring occa:
sionally until the pudding is perfectly
and smoothly frozen. Now take an ice
pudding mold, fill it quickly with the
pudding, close up with the mold cover,
take the pot out OF the ice, and put the
mold in its place, pouring off the wa
ter, and adding fresh ice and salt. When
ready to serve, take the mold out; dip
it in cold water, and turn the pudding
out on its dish. If the pudding is not
to be nodded, pour off the water, and
add fresh ice and salt to the freezing
pot, and cover with damp cloth till

PerliS of the London Streets.

1t has been caIcu lated that the yearly
average of persons killed by accidents
in the streets of London is greater than
the annual total of persons massacred
on all the railways of the United King
dom. During the last decade the vic
TINS of the thoroughfares of the me-
tropolis have reached an aggregate of
2 1875, while in 28, OH cases more or less
injuries have been inflicted. These sta
tistics are startling, and they signify in
reality more than at first appears.
Only the known injuries are enumer-
ated under the published categories.
There is considerable percentage of
casualties which does not find its way
into print, and when it is said last year
the killed and wounded in the London
streets amounted to 234 and 5000 re-
spectively, it must be remembered that
the estimate is reduced to q minimum.
The allowance of unascertained acci-
dents may be calculated upon as that of
Undecided murders. Alarming as these
figures seem, there is nothing surprising
in them when one recollects what are
the facts and what the perils of the
case. A population Of 1000. 900; streets
traversed by perpetual streams and
blocked by constant congesticns OF
traffic--the number of vehicles of diff
ferent kinds which daily pass up and
down Oxford street is computed at
II ,S91; thoroughfares often absurdly
inadequate for the exigences of the
present day; foot-passengers in swarms,
frequently indifferent to all consiiera.
tons of personal safety; drivers OF
every variety of caution and reckless
ness-these are the chief features of the
situation.

A "FEMALE sBEAUTIFIER. Madam
Rachel, )" one of the most acc omplished
female swindlers Of the age, died few
days ago in a London prison. She had
been twice convicted, and was serving
out her second term of five years. She
was known all over Europe AS the great
"female beautifer.' She had discov-
cred some sort of wash, an application
OF which would render the skin OF the
face soft, white, and peculiarly delicate,
and her plan was, in dealing with
wealthy women, to apply something
that would cover the face with pimples
and eruptions, and then bind them in q
heavy contract to have the affection re-
moved. BY this means she obtained
SIS 900 from one woman, some say the
wife of a British Admiral, who had her
arrested for fraud, but f.: the lawyers
pulled her through; then she got $1,000
from Mrs. Pease, who had her con-
victed, which sentence she was serving
when death interfered.

Women of the poorer classes, OBJ

obvious reasons less inducement to pro-

them hope one day to be provided for
in the way women have been in the
habit of dGsming most blessed from all

here, habits of independence and self

How AUTHORS WoRK.-Thomas
Bailey Aldrich writes his stories over
three times before they go to press
EIchaage. Shakespeare, Dickens and
Thackeray wrote their Z" few brief
lines only once, but they are OF no
account, compared with Thomas Bailey
!, Aldrich. Troy Press.
4 The Press talks little wide of the
mark in this matter. How Shakespeare
wrote no man can tell. His methods
are as shadowy as his manuscripts.
Dickens we know to have been, with all
his apparent ease, u most careful and
!aborious writer, interlining and eras-
ing almost as fnically as Balzac.
Thackeray, on the other hand, used to
cover his paper with all sorts of fig
ures and fantastic shapes before he be.
gan to write at all. That he was a
painstaking writer is self.evident. The
fact Of the matter is, it is only shallow,
J sloppy, ephemeral writers, who dash
OH so many pages by the hour and
novels by the year. The work that
lives is the result of hard, patient
study, labor, revision, and final review.
