MOnrnerS Made HapnH.

A funny story is told relative to the
sad experience OF two lovers in Paterson,
n. j. A young gentleman in New York
is engaged TO be married to a young
lady in Paterson, and recently the date
OF the wedding was fixed. On Saturday
the young man took q train on the Bic
railway to go West on business with q
friend. Starting in the evening, the
couple took a sleeping car, and at once
erept into their berths. In the morning
they arose, expecting to find themselves
near their destination. What was their
astonishment to find themselves not
many miles from jersey Cityl Thetrain
had been delayed by an accident on the
road, and had laid of on a switch. One
OF the party, who was compelled on &C
count OF business to be in New York on
Monday morning, at once took another
train back home, but the coming Bene-
dict pursued his way, calculating to
come home on Tuesday afternoon. He
started on Tuesday, but was delayed by
an accident from 8 in the morning TO 7
at night, not arriving in Patterson be-
fore yesterday morning. He at once
went 10 the house of his relatives and
found it locked up. Coming up Main
street he met an elderly lady, a friend
of his betrothed. When she saw the
young man she at once threw up her
arms in the greatest astonishment, aud
came near going off into Mysteries. Sur
prised at this, the young man inquired
what was the matter. he was then told
that the folks here had heard OF the ac-
eident and had also discovered that he
was on the train and had been smashed
up. His loved one and the members OF
her family had heard the same story,
and there was sorrowing and wailing,
the ecomiums bestowed upon the sup
posed deceased being loud and earnest.
And all this happened while the object
was snoring peacefully in a Pullman
sleeping car. Arrangements were be-
ing made for his funeral, and now they
had to be changed to arrangements for
a wedding. The young man. at the
solicitation of the lady friend he met,
started off to the residence Of his be-
loved and other interested parties, and
there was general rejoicing. The we'd
ding will come of as announced.

Sheep should have better care in early
winter than farmers are in the habit If
bestowing. Wintelipg 10 make them
live only, is not attended with profit.
lot prices rule high or low. Sheep are
commonly neglected more in early win
ter than any other farm stock, for thew
are often the very last taken from the
pastures.
II sheep go into winter quarters in a
declining state, the result is a demand
or extra feed and care during the winter
and a light clip Of wool in the spring.
When a sheep is thriving, wool grows
rapidly; when a sheep is declining the
growth is checked. If kept fat, large
fleece; ii kept poor, a light one. Sheep
should have a little grain every dayfrom
the time grass begins to fail in the fall
until 1t has a good start in the spring. |
would rather my sheep would have a
gill OF corn or oats per day from the
middle Of November till April, than a
pint a day from January till June.
There should be n object constantly
before the mind of the foekmaster. and
that is to keep his sheep in a thriving
condition.
Shelter is one of the first objects in
Wlnterlng sheep successfully. Farmers
often condemn barns and sheds as un-
healthy places for sheep, when it is a
want OF ventilation that does the injury.
1t is no argument against housing, be.
cause some people keep them 80 poorly
ventilated as to iniure their health. Nor
is 1t an argument against shelter for
stock, because it is improperly used. l
nm no believer in having sheep shut up
too closely 1 like warm, comfortable
quarters for them at night, but they
should not remain there all day. They
should go out, get SOM exercise, and
have some sunshine after a storm. We
ought to know and appreciate its bene-
fetal effects on animals.
Too large a number of sheep should
not be wintered together. I believe
seventy.fve is enough for one lot; by
no means let there be more than one
hundred. There is much more danger
OF disease in large focks than in small
ones. The proportion of sheep that do
not thrive is always greater in large
focks than in small ones. The division
should be made so as to put sheep of
about the same strength together.
Lambs should be by themselves. with a
few old tame sheep to keep them tame.
All large and strong wethers should be
by themselves, also all breeding ewes.
By this system of division all have an
equal chance, which is impossible where
numbers OF all ages and conditions
run together.

HUERYING INTO WoMANHooD.-One
of the crying evils of the times is the
tendency and disposition Of girls to
get through girlhood hurridly and
get into womanhood or rather into
young ladyhood, without waiting to
enjoy the beautiful season Of girlhood.
Speaking on this point Bishop Nor
ris says:
"Wait patiently, my children,
through the whole limit of your girl
hood. Go not after womanhood ;
let it come to you. Keep out OF
public view. Cultivate refinement
and modesty. The cares and re-
sponsibilities of life will come soon
enough. When they come you will
meet them, I trust, as true women
should. But, oh! be not so unwise
ss to throw away your girlhood:
Rob NO. yourselves of this beautiful
season, which, wisely spent, will
brighten all your future life"

How AIR IS Woven. -AEhe Decca
muslins of India are among the
most wonderful evidences of tho
haId-skill Of the strange people of
the mysterious East. These fabrics,,
which are spun and woven entirely
by hand, and are the products of
obscure and curious processes, un-.
known and unattainable by the Wes-
tern nations, like the fabrication of
Damascus steel and the camel's-hair'
shawIs, are marvels of ingenuity and
skill, and they illustrate the poetry
of cotton. The most delicate of,
these fabrics is known, as "woven
air." It can only be made in the
early mornings aud in the evenings
when the air is full of moisture and
the dew is on the grass. The pror
cesses by which it is woven are kept
secret, and the people who do the.
work are compelled first to pass.
through a long course of training
and initiation. Their delicate wares
are OF such ETHEREAL texture as tocb
almost invisible; and. yet they are so
enduring that they will bear wash
ing and wear in = most wonderful
manner. This precious stuff is mo-
nopolized for the use of the ladies
Of the Oriental harems, and is said
to be worth hundreds of dollars per
yard.
