CARTA DE ACTUALIDAD.
Un apreciable correligionario nues

--Lo creo, sonora pero MI amor ha-
cia ella no es tan egoista.
Vic claramente la viuda que aquel
yerno modelo So le escapaba de entire

celos podria traerlo a buen camino. Asi
es que lie dijo:

Estas 1ltimas palabras las pronunci6
miranda atentamente q la .buena seno-
ra.
Me parece, dijo ella, que iuzga V.
con demasiada ligereza.
--Perdone ", sonora el amor es
muy exigente y may descontentadlzo,
cree que slcanzar la preferencia de una
mujer sobre un sexagenario que ademas
no es rico, es un triunfo POGO satisfacto-

AL levantarse de la mesa estaba tan
furioso como al levantarse de la CANA.

hacian muecas, bailando delante de sus

guras de los chinos 10 perseguian por
todas parties.

robustas espaldas ell peso de la c6lera
de su amo.

ira que tronaba sobre su cabeza.
En- su corazon habia un pozo muy

Rule Farming.

IT is very difficult to conduct the man.
agement of q farm so as to be able to
follow fixed methods, or to be guided by
principles. It is amusing to watch the
course of some retired merchants or
business men, who buy farms and sup
pose they can work by methods as exact
as the rule in well.conducted business.
They soon find that all their rigid rules
and precise proceedings fail to work a.
well as they do IN commercial affairs.
Almost every rule in farming must be
flexible, as circumstances or conditions
are constantly changing, and hence the
industry is vexatious and discouraging
to men trained to exact methods. Lord
Palmerston, the great English states.
man, could conduct the affairs of king.
dom but he could not turn his hand to
successful farming. Late ine Ito 10
bought farm and, alter dsvotng' con.
siderable time to it, he remarked in de-
SPAR, 81 can find no guiding principles
in this business. It is all . rule OF
thumb" He did not understand that
Nature in some of her moods is capri
cious, and that farming is greatly influ'
enced in ito results by this caprice.
Drought, extreme vet, high winds, low
temperature and high temperature are
important factors In agriculture; and
success depends greatly upon these In
Auences, which can not b controlled.
After . farmer has learned oil that can
be learned regarding the tilling Of big
soil, the planting Of seeds, the care Of
his crops, there remains to be learned
bhaienoe, foresight and constant vigi-
lance. There Is lovecation o. industry
which demands tho exercise Of moro
hope and patience than farming, and
any attempt 10 reduce the labor to
rules, 90 that work will run in grooves,
must prove abortive. We must watch
tho seasons, and prepare y veil q we
can for adverse influences. Crops should
be planted upon upland and lowland. 90
- to guard against entire loss, when
seasons are unduly vet or dry; the dit:
ferent natures and capabilities Of coll
must DO understood; and whom failures
occur, ~ they will under the best man.
agement, there must be no yielding ia
despondsncy. Bostos Journal Of Che's'

HARD Soar MADE WITH WASHING
SoDA.-Poor five gallons Of boiling
water over six pounds Of washing soda
and three pounds of unslaked lime. Al.
ter it settles and becomes clear, pour
off. You may then turn over it two gal
Ions of clear cold water to be added
from time to time as the soap Is in dam
ger of boiling over. To the five gallons
Of soda and lime.water add six pounds
of perfectly clean fat and boil about two
and a half hours, or until it begins to
harden. Throw in handful of salt Just
before taking from the fire. Pour into q
tub and let stand until solid.
ONIONS FOR OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
have many uses, both as condiments and
medicine, and recently DR.. Pearse, Of
Plymouth, England, presents their claim
as remedial agents in cases of consump-
ton. He states that more than four
fifths Of the sufferers from that disease

prefer them raw, eaten with salt. but
they like them cooked, too. He, there

about three quarts OF wood ashes, put

help settle it. Put three quarts of shelled
corn into another kettle and pour over
the strained lye. Now let boil half an
hour, then skim out the corn and rinse
we'll with several waters, rubbing with
the hands until the black chits come off.
Put back into the kettle with clear water

The terror ~ Peoria Street. Chics

The terror of Peoria Street, Chica-
90, is miniature fire insurance patrol,
composed Of recklessly jealous small
boys. Six Of their number act as
horses, drawing the rest in a small
wagon, which was unwisely presented
to them by the superintendent of the
adult patrol. They usually operate on
bonfires, over which they spread wet
blankets in the ordinary manner, and
they run on the sidewalks because, as
We are informed, ''they can knock
more people down there than they could
in the middle of the street." They re-
Gently conceived the idea that a house
was on fire, and with wild whoops pro-

upholstered furniture. That was going
