Objections to Marriage.

In our opinion, girls are just as will
ing to give up their extravaganza in
dress as young men are-that is, when
1t ls necessary so to do. The fact that
men are so unwilling to relinquish their
pet vices and Injuries is to be ascribed
much of the falling-of of matrimony.
Marriage without adequate means of sup
port is blunder that is almost crime :
butno girl made Of ordinary stuff will hest
tate to share the trials and sacrifices of
the man she loves, provided he has that
competence, however modest. The
thousands Of happy, smiling homes,
where true love constantly abides, in
spite of the slenderness of the family
income, sufficiently attest the readiness
OF the average woman to surrender the
baubles of wealth and fashion in order
to become devoted wife and mother.
If the opposite sex were uniformly ami
mated by similar spirit, we venture to
assert that the number of maids and
bachelors would rapidly diminish. The
truth is, there is too much love of dress
and pretentous display in both sexes,
and woman should not bear the blame
alone. .a -z

AT Home.

The highest style of being at home
grows out of special state of the af-
tections rather than of the intellect.
Who has not met with individuals
whose faces would be a passport to
any society, and whose manners-the
unstudied and spontaneous expressions
of their inner selves-1nake them Wis
IDLY welcome wherever they go, and
attract unbounded confidence toward
them in whatever they undertake?
They are frank and affable, because their
natures overflow with benevolence !;
unfurried, because they dread no.
thing always at home, because they
carry within themselves that which
can trust to itself anywhere and every
where-purity of soul with fullness
of heart. Such are our best guaran-
tees for feeling at home in all society
to which duty takes us, and in every
occupation upon which it obliges us to
enter. They who live least for them
selves are also the least embarrassed
by uncertainties.

PEACH GRUB.-"Her is the plan ]
have tried for twenty years with the
worm that works on the tree just under
the surface of the ground. I destroy
all the worms I can find then prepare
sheet Of brown paper by painting it
with grating wax; clean the dirt from
the tree as low as I can without inter-
fering with the roots then wrap the
paper around the trunk about foot up
from the root. It will stick without any
tying. Then pull the dirt back around
the tree. The time to do the work is
in the spring. IF you are planting out
young trees, wrap them before they are
planted. They should be wrapped every
spring. Old trees are not worth both
ering with. The miller deposits the
eggs which produce the grubs in May
or June, just above the surface Of the
ground. They hatch, go downward and
become larger all the time and do not
stop working till cold weather. '-E. ~,

TRANSFORMING IN TIE NIGHT. A
gentleman, anxious to ascertain the
effect of transplanting at night, instead
of by day, made an experiment with the
following results: He transplanted ten
cherry trees while in bloom, commencing
at o'clock in the afternoon. Those
transplanted during the daylight shed
their blossoms, producing little or no
fruit, while those transplanted in the
dark maintained their condition fully.
He did the same with ten dwarf trees.
after the fruit was one-third, grown.
Those transplanted during the day shed
their fruit; those transplanted during
the night perfected the crop and showed
no injury from having been removed.
With each Of these trees he removed
some earth with the roots. The Incl
dent IS fully vouched for, and, if a few
similar experiments produce q like re-
suit, it will be strong argument to hor-
taculturists, etc, to do such work at
night. 80 Floral Cabinet.

Cold in the Head.

Most people look upon cold as a
small matter. CO." they say, at is
nothing but cold" And yet cold
may prove speedily fatal, or be source
Of lifelong harm. The danger is more
apparent when we remember that Wig
orous person but seldom takes cold, but
mainly those persons in whom the power
of vital resistance is already weakened.
A cold may run rapidly into pneu.
monia. It may give rise to rheumatism,
and thence to diseases of the heart. It
may throw itself with dangerous symp-
toms on the bowels. It may bring on g
kidney complaint. It may infame and
close up the gall ducts, and thus cause
Understandable agony from the distention
OF the infamed bladder by the accumu.

The original attack slight and brief
fever-is general. The point of special
harm is from the consequences which
remain when the fever is over.
OF all colds, it is generally thought
that one in the head is of the least sig
nificance, beyond being annoying. But,
at a late meeting Of the New York Medi-
va OoC!Ooy, PnPC1 was 1cdu ny LIZ.

most frequent cause Of certain chronic
diseases-and indeed of very many of
the maladies which terminate life before
the age of 70. He added "The first
great precaution to be taken by each in
dividual is tokeephimself in good general
condition; and to do that he muststudious-
~ avoid all that tends to disorder the
skin and the functions Of all the organs
of the body. Children must be clothed
in flannel the year round, and must be
made to know that the staples of diet are
milk, bread, meat, vegetables and fruit,
and that tea, coffee and pastry of all
kinds are to be used only as the greatest
of luxuries, and therefore in small quAn-

Illinois Winter Wheat.

From Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 10, it is
learned that the forthcoming crop report Of
the board Of agriculture will show winter
wheat crop of the State Of 1880, to be 1885,,
600 bushels, the whole value Of the crop be-
ing estimated at s445.77o,OOo. This crop has
never been equalled in the history Of the
State. There will be over AVG 600 600 bushels
to be shipped after taking out the amount
necessary for consumption and seed.
Wheat Crop.
The Chicago Commercial Bulletin, Of
September 10, presents returns from 30
counties in the Northwest as to the con-
dition and amount of the spring wheat
crop. They say it seems evident that the
culture of earlier whe at is coming into great.
er ia vor in the northwest especially in the
older agricultural districts. The farmers ap.
pear also to have enlarged their corn area at
the expense of spring wheat. The yield of
theIlatter is, however, greater than in 1879.
The old crop is sold very close, much closer
than usual. The yield in the States of hin.
nois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Wisconsin and Dakota territory, recorded on
the basis Of the RETURNS received, is 147,761,.
600 bushels of spring wheat against 1885,
600 last year, and the averge per acre is 1855,
against u. Is per cent. in 1879. The acreage
is 45l.O 600 greater than in 1879. 49,.

Terrible Cyclone of Fire.

A dispatch from Upton, province OF
Quebec, says one of the most terrible hurri-
canes of fire in the history of that section OF
the country, was the fire which swept through
q portion Of that vlllige, Sept. 6, carrying
ruin and death in it's track, both to man and
beast. Bush fires have been numerous for
some time, and little attention was given to
them. The high winds famed the flames,
until, at o'clock, the inhabitants saw with
dismay wall of fire come toward them with
steady sweep, as fast as a man could run,
and swallowing up everything in its course.
By four o'clock the first farm house had
been reached. The fire ran along the rail
fences, burning the grain, and the wind sent
the sparks in all directions. So quickly was
one farm house after another destroyed, that
men, women and children had barely time to
escape until the fire was upon them. As
night drew on the flames increased in vio-
lence while the wind rose, and over the space
OF twelve miles in length and covering q
width of from three to four miles the eye
rested upon nothing but roaring, cracking
flames, aud families came flying into the vii
lage proper, in scanty dress. children shrek
ing in their terror, and many were burned to
death. Forest after forest was swept away
and the smoke and flames were in one
compact volume some six miles long and
measured as far as the eye could see. People
from st. Helena, st. German, st. Guillaume
and other roads came in crowds. The fugi-
tives IN some instances were compelled to.
abandon vehicles and take to horses backs
Men were obliged to throw away their coats
to save their lives. House after house and
barns filed with the best crops known for
years were licked up, and when the fugitiyes
were counted it was found there were eleven
persons missing, not one of whom it was
thought would escape, but towards the fore
noon most Of them turned up. Several were
badly burned. Four persons have been known
to burn to death. 1t is certain some se7euty.
i've families were burnt out representing
nearly 400 persons. It is feared the loss of
life will be much greater than yet estimated
