The farmers Fisb -

During the past few years there
has been much interest taken in the
cultivation of fish as an article of
food. Through the labors Of the Ma
tlonal and State Commissioners
much light has been thrown on the
subject Of their cultivation. Among
other things it has been demonstraf-
ed that at very light expense the
farmers may have at hand constantly
q supply of fresh meat food thst viii
IN some degree take the place Of an
imal food.
Professor Baird, U. S. Fish Com
missioner, declares the carp to be Of
all others best adapted to the wants
OF farmers, and calls it ''the farmers

plants which il reishes w food.
The carp is not q dainty feeder.
1t will eat anything that fowls and
pigs relish, and will devour insects.
small reptiles and meats Of all kinds.
1t also eats nearly all kinds Of green
vegetables, fruits and garbage. It
can be fattened on grain as easily as
pigs and turkeys are, and the Young
are especially fond Of sweet curd and
liver.
The carp possesses q number of
good qualities that render It a valu-
able fish. It is thoroughly domesti-
Gated. 1t can be transported easier
and will live longer out Of water than
any other scale fish. It is exceeding
ly prolific, a large one often Welding
as many as 100000 eggs. No hatch
ing house needed The eggs hatch in
a few days, and the young, when not
disturbed, grow rapidly.
The flesh Of the carp is not as
delicate as that of some other 7arie-
ties Of fish, and IN summer It is
hardly fit to be eaten. But for the
most Of the year it is usabIe; and as
edible fOOdit may be ranked with the
substaantials Of people Of moderate
means.
1t is possible that future farmers
may raise carp as they now raise
beef and pork, for table use and for
market.

Incidents Of GarfeId's Last Hours.

The story comes from the lips OF
DR.. Agnew's wife. On the day set
apart for prayers by the Governor of
New Jersey, the patient was lying in
his easy chair, gazing off on the dis
tant sea- His wife sat by his side.
Presently the sound of the church
bells fell upon the ear. As they con-
tinued, some one called Mrs. Garfield
away. In a few moments she return
ed, telling her husband that one or
two of his friends feared that the
noise of the church bells might not
be agreeable to him, and if they af-
fected his nerves it could be stopped
at once. The President looked up
confdingly into his wife's face, and
said: "Crete, the bells that call to
prayer can never injure me-" Two or
three days before his death, Mrs.
Agnew says, the patient, in a quiet
talk with DR.. Agnew, remarked 1:
doctor, I seem to see two roads
before me. One is the road to recove-
ry, the other the road to the grave.
I feel, Doctor, that I am on the
latter. . Wilkesbarre (Ps.) Leader

Making Money.

Some people can hardly make q liv
ing and some lay up money. Why IS
It? Into q village of a few hundred in
habitants a young man came, and was
employed as q clerk in q store; he lived
there fifty years and laid up 800, 600.
Other men worked as hard, but did not
lay up money. Near the village was q
large and beautiful farm. The owner
of it had it from his father. He did
not drink or gamble, and yet ne could
not make a living, and so borrowed
money, and to secure it gave a mort
gage on the farm. In q few years his
farm was sold, and he was obliged to
move away. A ScOtchman, with but
little money and q large family, passed
by and saw the house was vacant and
struck q bargain with the owner. He
began to work, to save, and to pay, and
in ten or twelve years he was the en-
tire owner. Then he went on and laid
up money, and now is rich man.
The art Of making money is one that
should be carefully studied. If you
take a dollar and lend it out at six per
cent interest, it viii double itself in six
teen years. If you take a dollar and
buy something with it, and then sell at
a profit, and Keep on doing so, you IN
crease your capital. These three ways
are the foundation ways Of money
making. All business is in one of these
three forms Those who succeed the
best are those who know the most about
what they do.

The following words from the edi-
tOrial in the Century for November,
the last from DR.. Hollands pen,
seem strangely prophetic of his
death, which came suddenly before
the editorial was published: "We
trust our readers viii pardon us if
we indulge in a little sentiment to-
day. The men who devise and carry
on the important enterprises Of the
world, grow weary after q time and
die. . For many years we hope to
meet the readers Of the Century in a
constantly increasing circle, with
better gifts in our hands, but we
know that the time must come when
we must cease from labor, and re-
linquish our work to other hands"

there is a purgatOry; it maintains that
the Holy Ghost proceeds from the Fa-

medium; it admits of no images in re

A letter-writer in the San Francisco
Chronicle says: At Minersville I had
a long conversation with q very intelli-
gent Jack Mormon. Men of his
class are ''neither one thing nor the
other" but are held in distrust by both
the antagonistic elements in Utah. A
Jack Mormon is generally a Gentle
who has married q very attractive Nor
mon girl and is too poor to get out Of
the Territory with her. He refuses to
connect himself with the church or to
ego into pOlygamy," but pretends to
sympathiZe with the MOrmOns, and
gets along with them the best way he
can. He is tolerated. and that is all.
He has sprung into being within the
past fifteen years, for at one time Nor
mon bishops furiOusly preached that
"al who are not for the Lord must be
heWn to pieces on the highway" The
threat was not an empty one, but in
multitude Of instances was executed to
the letter.

OF the NEws,
HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS.
A BRIEF ACCOUNT OF THE
FAMOUS HEALTH RESORT.

EDIToR HIGHLAND News If time
and opportunity permit, I wish to
give your readers a brief description
of this place, its location, and what
is claimed for it as a curative resort.
The city of Hot Springs is located
in some spurs Of the Ozark Noun
tains, in the southwestern part OF
the State of Arkansas, forty miles
from Little Rock, the Capital of the
State. The place takes its name
from the hot springs, about seventy
in number, that flow from the west
end of Hot Springs Mountains, pour
ing forth a volume of hot water,
ranging in temperature from so to
1GO degrees Fahrenheit, and estimst
ed at $4,000 gallons per hour. The
valley, at the site of the springs, is
735 feet above tide water, and the
mouutsins on either hand rise 500 to
600 feet higher, and are clio thed
with a beautiful growth of evorgreens
and deciduous trees.
The city is built along the very
narrow winding valleys, so narrow
in many places that building room
can only be obtained by blasting in
to the solid rocks, of which the noun
tains are formed. The geological
formations here seem to consist en-
tirely of 'old red sandstone" and
''shale," the shale being invariably
overlaid, as far as I have observed,
with the sandstone.
The city OfHot Springs contains
a resident population of 1000 to
5000, and is largely made up of no.
tells and boarding-housss. It is %
miles from Malvern, on the I. NJ. &
Southern Ry.. with which point it is
connected by ansrrow gauge railway,
that runs two passenger trains daily
each woy.
+Uig estimated that $4,000 to 49,
I 900 visitors come here annually for
their health, at least so per cent. of
whom go home either entirely cured
or greatly relieved, which is a better
showing than can be made by any
other health resort in the world.
I think, from my acquaintance
here, that at Ioast two-thirds of the
residents came originally on account
of their health, and have remained.
The place Is inst in its infancy it is
only two years since the Government
commenced to lay out tbs city, and
to make titles to the land. Previous
to that time, all right to real estate
was vested in the United States
Government, consequently there
was no inducement to make perma-
nont improvements. In fact, all
buiIdinge erected previous to that
time were of the most temporary
character. But now there are many
good ones going up all the time.
There are a great many neat and
substantial residences in and around
the city, and several substantial
brick business houses going up. It
is reported that we are soon to have
q S25O,OOO hotel put up near the
new depot, which is a very neat
structure, built of pressed brick of
fine quality. There are twelve or
thirteen houses here, and many

We clip the following from the Troy, n.
Y. Times: Letters pour in daily, some
times by dozens, scores, and hundreds, to
Dr. David Kennedy, of Rondout, N. Y, in
grateful acknowledgment of the gre at
benefits received from his 'Favorite Rene
dy.' And they illustrate the power of the
medicine in some new, and, perhaps,
hitherto untested phase of operation. But
it is when a sufferer comes miles to tell
the story Of his deliverance in person, to
grasp the doctor by the hand and greet
him as a true and valued friend, that the
interest in his ease deepens and muliplies" {"

Efesigbt Of Readers.

A writer in the Literary Journal
calls attention to the danger which
readers run Of injuring their eyesight
by the use Of bad light. He remarks
that engraYers, watchmakers and all
others who use the eyes constantly in
their work, take extra care to preserve
them by getting the best possible light
Dy day, and use the best artificial light
at night. The great army of readers
are careless, and have sooner or later
10 pay the penalty Of their carelessness
by giving up night work entirely, and
sometimes reading, except at short in
terVals and under the best conditions.
All departures from common type,
making the matter more difficult for
eyes to take in, increase the danger.
The magnitude of the physical labor Of
reading is not appreciated. A book
of 500 pages, forty lines to a page and
fifty letters to the line contains 1,OO0,-
900 letters, all Of which the eye has to
take in, identify and combine each
with its neighbor. Yet many readers

The task is one he would shrink from
if he should stop to measure it before

best paper Of yellOWish tints, and album

best safeguards against harm. POplL-
