To Young Farmers.

To accomplish anything in life, it will
be found necessary to 60 to work in
No man ever made anything
by not making an effort. Thousands OF
young men, with good resolutions,
spend their time trying TO find an easy
way to make money, and the result is,
they fail. What is snecessary is to 20 to
work in earnest. Make up your mind
that success comes only from diligent
keep out of debt as far as
possible, and if you have made a wise
selection as to location, you are all
right. We would impress upon the
of all a few facts gathered from
experience:
1. You must have good land, and not
pay too high a price for it.
2. You must be sure of a good mar
ket for all you can raise.
8. You will be required to select such
crops for cultivation as will yield the
greatest profit.
4. Don't try experiments until you
reach a point when failure will not
embarrass you.
5. See to it that your expenses are
kept at the very lowest point, and be
sure not to spend money before you
have made it. BY far the larger num-
Der of failures come from wrong esti-
mates. Your crops may look fine, and
you may have an idea that your corn
will yield close on to hundred bushels
to the acre, but owing to something
which you do not quite understand, il
only turns out fifty. Your wheat may
look very fine, and all your neighbors
may give it as their opinion that you
will harvest not less than three thousand
bushels. but when the threshing time
comes you only measure up one thou
sand five hundred.
Now, if you have run in debt, expect
ing a hundred bushels of corn to the
acre and fifteen hundred more bushels
of wheat than you get, the chances art
that you will find yourself in a position
quite uncomfortable; but if you keeE
out of debt, you are all right. Learn tc
do without that which you have not the
money to pay for, and success viii
come of itsef.-Ihe NeD Home.

broken sword, and the monks came to
believe that the two convent pictures
were by the same artist.
So, little by little, the story grew
that Brother Giovanni had been a SOL
dier and an artist, and that, bent on
some vain. perhaps wicked. errand. he
had been lost on the mountain. and that
he had been rescued by the Brothers Of
the Holy Shelter. and had painted for
them their picture. Then he had re-
pented of his sins, and had taken vows
as q monk. The man, it was said, was
the servant of an artist; and by and by
it grew to be that he was Brother Clio
vanni's foster brother, and was in
search of him when he, in turn, was
lost.
1t was noticed that the Prior never
contradicted these stories, but he used
to smile when they said that Brother
Giovanni had been sent by the Pope to
Siberia on o mission. But one thing
he ofte. did say: that it was not need
full to ask for miracles when what we
prayed for was within hand-touch If the
hand was but put forth to take it

Property Rights Of Husband and Wife.

A husband who cut up his wife's sew
ng-machine and two shawls with his
little hatchet was recently tried before
the Court of Quarter Sessions of Mercer
County, New Jersey, upon an indict-
ment charging him with the malicious
destruction Of the goods and chattels
aforesaid. The sewing-machine was
paid for out Of his own earnings entire
ty, but the wife contributed something
toward the price of the shawls. The
property to which the statute is in terms
applicable must be that of some other
person than the destroyer, so it was
clear that the defendant was not liable
as far as the sewing-machine was con-
cerned; but there was question as to
the shawls, inasmuch as they cartainly
belonged to the wife in part. The hus-
band was convicted, but judgment was
subsequently arrested by the Court,
and he was discharged on the ground
that the shawls were not the property
of I" any other persons" within the
meaning of the statute. This decision
logically follows the prevailing doctrine
in this country that the unity of hus-
band and wife is not destroyed by the
married woman's acts to such an eX-
tent as to render either chargeable with
larceny for rtaking the separate property
of the other. All the unity that exists.
however, in a family where the husband
breaks up the sewing-machine with a
hatchet, must be such as is implied by
the law; and though it seems rather a
severe repressivc measure to try to send
him to the penitentiary, the wife in this
case appears to have preferred that
course instead of the moral suasion
which we should recommend to partic-

The Yak.

To the Kirghiz the yak is as invalua.
bic as the reindeer to the Laplander, or,
in another way, as the camel to the
Arab. Its milk is richer than that of
the COW, and its hair is woven into
clothes and other fabrics. Where
man can walk, a yak can be ridden. 1t
is remarkably sure-footed; like the ele-
phant, it has a wonderful sagacity in
knowing what will bear its weight and
in avoiding hidden depths and chasms;
and when a pass or gorge becomes
blocked by snow (provided it be not
frozen) a score of yaks driven in front
will make highway. This strange
creature frequents the mountain slopes
and their level SUBMITS. 1t needs no
tending, and finds its food at all sea-
sons. II the snow on the heights lies
too deep for him to find the herbage,
he rolls himself down the slopes, and
eats his way up again, displacing the
snow as he ascends. When arrived at
the top he performs a second somer-
sault down the slope, and displaces q
second groove of snow as he eats his
way to the top again. The yak cannot
bear a temperature above freezing; and
in summer it leaves the haunts of men
and ascends far up the mountains to the
"old ice," above the limit of perpetual
snow, its calf being retained below as q
pledge for the mother return, In which
she never falls.

Carelessness and Cruelty.

We have taken frequent occasion to
speak of due preparation for the hous-
ing and the otherwise taking care Of
animals during winter, and we have no
suspicion that intelligent readers will
fail to consult their own interests by
neglecting this care. There are other
branches of this subject, however, that
we do not by any means feel as sure
will receive as much attention; and one
of these is the proper care of the horse
while on the road. Perhaps it would
not be safe to say that the great major
ity of drivers are careless and cruel in
this matter; but it is safe to say, be-
cause it is certainly true, that a very
great many are. No one particular
class of drivers are more prominently
guilty than another, but every class
contains those who think that a horse
has no more feeling and is no more liza
BILE to disease than a piece of stone.
The result is that a blanket is thought
to be very superfluous article, if in
deed it is thought of at all. The horse
is driven until its blood becomes thor
oughly heated, and the animal is then
permitted to stand in the cold, until the
system is thoroughly chilled. Very
often, it is true, the driver does not
realize that the horse is in heated con-
dition; he shows no perspiration, and
the matter is not thought of. While
this is an example of very great care
lessness, not to say inexcusable ignor-
ance, it is absolutely true very often.
1t would seem impossible for any one
not to know that horse driven ten OF
fifteen miles must necessarily become
heated, whether he gives any outward
evidence of it or not; and if the animal
is heated, certainly no one need be told
that it cannot stand in the cold and
cool off without injury. We know how
such treatment would affect us, and
while the horse can stand more than a
man, it cannot stand any such tre.st-
ment as this without serious detriment.
Suppose, indeed, that the horse is
not overheated; it cannot then stand
for any considerable time in the cold
without becoming chilled. None Of
our domestic animals can; and the very
moment the animal does become chilled
its health and even its life is endan-
gered. A horse never should be per.
mitted to stand out of doors in winter
without being blanketed. 1t is bad
enough to let them stand in cold
stable without a blanket, as many do.
We have repeatedly said, too, that such
exposure is a waste of animal heat, and
this simply means a waste of grain. If
you light fire in a stove and then
throw the windows of the room open,
you must burn more fuel in order to
keep warm, and will not do it then.
We cannot heat all-out-doors with the
some amount of fuel that we would use
to heat room. Nor can we warm a
horse and all-out-doors with the same
amount of grain that would be quite
sufficient to keep up the heat in the
horse.
1t costs very little to procure a blan-
ket, and it will pay for itself over and
over again during the winter. Besides
being an act of economy, too, it is a
humane act to clothe your horse
when he is compelled to remain stand
ing in the cold.-Western Rural.

A WRITER tells In the New York Observer
this apecdote Of the Rev. Dr.. 7. P. Wilson,
Of Philadelphia: In speaking Of himself,
in the pulpit, he always used the plural.
His use Of 1t on one occasion, / remember,
was almost ludicrous. There was no air,
and the doctor seemed scarcely able to get
his breath. At intervals he would twitch
time to incase the throat, but in vain; he
could get no relief At length he stopped
at the end Of a sentence, and, in his quiet,
low-toned manner, said: 'The congregation
will please excuse us for few minutes.
Our wife has tied our cravat too tight this
morning." So saying, he descended from his
seat, and with quiet composurs which
seemed almost to divest the transaction Of
its manifest incongruity, withdrew to lit
tie room adjoining, where he had the trouble
come article adjusted to his satisfaction.
