Hogs in Winter.

There is no domestic animal that
suffers so much from exposure tt
cold and wet as the hog. He is
native of mild climate and should
be treated as his nature demands
If we would turn his peculiarities tc
our advantage. And during winter
he should he provided with warm
dry quarters, plenty OF warm clean.
bedding, and an abundant supply OF
nutritious, fat and heat producing
food For this pnrpose there is
nothing equal to corn, owing to the
large amount Of carbon iu its com
position, which the hog appropriates
in producing fat and heat to warm
his svstem--the same as our stoves
consume carbon in the form of wood
and coal to warm our rooms. The
colder and more exposed these are,
the more fuel we are obliged to con-
sumo to make them comfortable.
Just so with the hog; the less care
is expel. ded in making his quarters
comfortable, the more corn he must
consume to keep up the animal
heat, and, if not supplied with the
necessary 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 thought
less owne& 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 according
to the demands of the weather.
When the weather suddenly be-
comes warm, animals lose their ap-
petites and are liable to become
stalled. Some cooling, succulent
food, as slop or vegetables of some
kind. should be substituted for the
more heating food Of grain.

Abolishing the Horse.

Just think of it. Scientists say
thatin a few years there will be no
need of horses; that inventions
have been perfected which will give
us artificial locomotion, and we can
do without the aid of quadrupods.
1t is not the bicycle, although that
is coming more and more into pop,
ular favor. Already we hear of the
improved bicycles being used in
travelling all over the country; but
the new machines are run by 4 kind
of air pump and have already been
tried in England. Their inxentor

Taking Leave.

1t is not easy 20 terminate q visit

Some people do not know how to
leave a room. 1t is painful to see
them anxious 10 beat a retreat from
call or q visit. and yet apparently
as unable 20 escape as rats in trap,
although nothing bars their egress.
and sll persons concerned would
gladly dispense with their company.
The art or science of departure,
both from localities AMI positions,
is worth studying in little rs we'll as
in great matters, and calls for tho
exercise Of tact. No visitor is like
" to be popular who has not the
tact to leave at the proper time n
house at which he may lie staying.
One of the greatest difficulties i'll
bidding farewell to host is to eon-
vey 10 him the impression that you
have enjoyed yourself. Expressions
of thanks for pleasant visit are
apt TO have sterotyped and cons
entional ring about them. a hos.
pitablc man likes to know that his
friends haxe been happy; but when
e,ch offhem mutters sort of little

Wife's Power.

A cool wife is to man wisdom,
strength aud courage: 4 bad one is
confusion, weakness and despair,
SAYS an English magazine. No con-
dition is hopeless to man where
the wife possesses frmness, decision
and economy. There is no outward
propriety which can counteract in
dolence, extravagances and folly at
home. No spirit can long endure
bad influence. Man is strong, but
his heart is adamand. He needs
tranquil mind and especially if he is
an intelligent NAV, with q whole
head, he needs it's moral force in the
conflict of life. To recover his COM
posure, home must be place of peace
and comfort There his soul renews
its strength and goes forth renewed
vigor to encounter the labors and
troubles of life. But If at home be

bad temper, jealousy and gloom, or

Family Worship.

! \ prayerless family cannot be
otherwise than irrcligious. They
who daily pray in their homes do
well; they that not only pray hut
read the Bible do better; but they
do best of all who do not only pray
and read the Bible. but sing the
praises Of God. What scene can he

heavenly home, and more pleasing

the home altar, and uniting their
sUpplications to their Father in

pious mother granting her little
ones around her ut the beadsiIc,

home a type of heaven, the dwelling

Some families are not careful 10

the worship. This is very wrong,
The children should always be pres

they awkwardly sit in their seats

Conform to Rules.

When visiting n friends house
Won should. for the time, have TO
pronounced individuality. His ways
should be yours for the time. A con.
sideratc visitor will be careful not to
keep his host aud hostess up TO n
later hour than that at which they
habituallv retire Thoughtlcss pco
pie frequently occasion much veXa-
ton and inconvenience in this way.
In many houses there is tanit sig
nal that beadtime has arrived by
the appearance Of tray with light
refreshments, having partakcn Of
which the party disperscs for the
night. 1t is permissible for the gen
tlemen to adjourn to the smoking
room for short time before retir.
ing for the night--this of course is
quite optional, and does not entail
the presence of the host. When
staying OF friends house, visitor
should never take book from the
library to bis own room without re
qucsting permission to borrow it.
Many people place the highest val
ne Oh their literary possessions.
When a book is lent care should be
taken thgt it sustains not the slight
est damage, either within or with
out. No guests should be continu-
ally dependent upon her host for Ell
tcrtainment, but should throw her
self upon her own resources, and en-
tleayor to amuse herself as much as
possible, and should remember, that
however welcome she may be, her
presence is not always wanted.
From breakfast to luncheon, as q
usual thing, visitors should not eX
pect any attention from host to
hostess. Both require some time in
order to make necessary arrange
meuts; many matters may require
the supervision Of the hostess, while
the host avails himself OF this peri
cd to occupy himself with his per
sonal concerns. The visitor, too,
finds this convenient time for ask
ing stroll, reading, writing, etc, in
fact, do anything in reason. except
look for any attentions from her en-.
tcrtainers during this portion of the
day. If she be n sensible woman.
she will enjoy n period Of solitude
on her own account.

ADVICE To THE GIRLS.
Fair ladies, pray,
When you smilingly say,
That your name you'll exchange for an
other,
Let each II she can,
Get a sober young man,
Or be pleased still to dwell with her mother
The most Of young men
Who quatr of their dram,
And love its delightful sweet favor;
Though detestable rakes,
VIII swear for your sakcs
They intend soon to change their behavior
But when the dear sky,
Has far flown away,
And with Hymen's stong chain they
have bound you;
Their promises fair.
Will oft vanish in air,
And the worst Of excesses confound you.
Then chose a young mao,
Daspising the dram,
One who reads Mrs Eaton's "Aurera,"
And he'll deal not in strife,
But be kind to his wife,
And prove a most faithful adorer.
Nov take my advice,
Young ladies go nice,
II you wish not to brawl and to quarrel;
Beware then | pray,
And once again say,
OF him whose love dwells in the barrel.
