A judicious wife is always nip

you say anything silly, she will af-

thing, she will find means of pre-
venting you from doing it. And

The wisest things a man commonly
does are those which his wife coun

wielder of the moral pruningknife.
If Johnson's wife had lived, there
would have been no boarding up of
orange peels, no touching all the
posts in walking along the street,no
eating and drinking with disgust

had been married he never would

4 Tina Lirht.

1t has long been a source Of per
plexity to the fathers and mothers
Of daughters possessed of beaux to
hit upon a plan by which the aver
age young man might thereby be-
come sensitive of the improperly
of remaining longer than 10 o'clock.
At time when the problem had
been declared beyond solution,
genius takes fresh hold, and 10 it
is accomplished, There lives on a
certain prominent street in this
city a gentleman who has three
charming daughters to whom assid-
uous attention has been shown by
as many clever young men of our
ci ty, whose only front Of offending
was an increasing disposition to
tarry beyond unreasonable hours.
That gentleman retires now with
perfect serenity, feeling assured that
when the hour of 10 comes the boys
must 90. His plan is this: He has
invented a patent "self-extinguish
ing illuminator," operated upon the
principle Of the time-lock, i. e., at
the time for which it is set out goes
the light. Sunday night last he
had the pleasure of witnessing the
result of his trial test. The parlor,
brilliantly illuminated, was the
scene of perfect happiness. In the
midst of thousand tender appella-
lions and soft responses, ETC., that
wicked illumination played a most
part-in twinkling they
were enshrouded in Stygian black
ness. No means to renew a light
being available, the boys were com

What Bows Should Be.

First-be true-be genuine. Nc
education is worth anything thai
does not include this: A man haC
better not know how to read-he
had better never learn a letter in the
alphabet, and be true and genuine
in attention and action, rather than
being learned in all the sciences and
all the languages, to be at the same
time false. in heart and counterfeit in
life.
Second-be pure in thought, Ian
guage; pure in mind and body.
An impure man, young or old, poi
soning the society wherever he
moves with smutty stories and i'm
pure examples, is moral ulcer, and
shouldsbe treated as were theIepers
of old.
Third-be unselfsh. To care for
the feelings of others. To be polite.
To be just in all dealings with 9th
ers. To be generous, noble and
manly.
Fourth-be self reliant and self
hopeful even from early childhood.
Be industrious always, and self-sup
porting at the earliest proper age.
Teach them that all honest work is
honorable, and that idle, useless
life of dependence on others is dis
graceful.
When a boy has learned these
four things, when he has made his
ideas a part of his being-however
young he may be, however poor, or
however richie has learned some
of the most important things he
ought to know when he becomes a
man.

Nocturnal Cow

The prevailing COW for this sea-

CITIZEN aaorra Francis Train.

George D. Prentice's opinion Of him.
A locomotive that has run off the
track, turned upside down, with its
catcher buried in a stump and
the wheels making a thousand revo-
lutions a minute-a kite in the air
which has lost its tail-a human
novel without a hero-a man who
climbs tree for a,bird's nest out on
a limb, and in order to get it saws
a limb off between himself and the
tree-a ship without a rudder, a
clock without hands, a sermon that
is all text, a pantomime of words,
an arrow shot into the air, the
apotheosis of talk, the incarnation
of CAB. Handsome, vivacious, yer
satile, muscular, as neat as a cat,
clean to the marrow, a judge in
clothes, frugal in food, and regular
only in habits-a MONDAY mystery,
a solved cOnundrum, a practical joke
in earnest, a cypher hunting figure
to pass for something; with the
brains of twenty men in its head all
putting different ways; not bad as to
heart, but a man who has shaken
hands with reverence.

Two Gentlemen,

1 saw two gentlemen Oh a street
car. One of them was grown up
He was handsomely dressed in q
gray business suit, and had very
neat kid gloves and fine boots. The
other was about II years old. His
jacket had several patches, and
needed more, and his shirt was OF
brown cotton and not very clean.
Do you wonder how 1 knew he was
gentleman? 1 will tell you.
The boy went through the car to
give some message to the driver.
As he returned he gave a little
jump through the door, and as he
did so his bare foot touched the
grown gentleman's knee, and left a
little mud on 1t. Turning around
on the platform, he raised his
straw hat, and said very politely, in
a clear tone, "Please excuse me-"
Then the other gentleman bowed in
his turn-just as he would have
done to one of his own age-and
said, with a pleasant smile, Seer
tainly."
The Iroquois Indians, many of
whom are very fine gentlemen, say
sometimes of a rude person, "His
mother did not teach him manners
when he was young" 1 am in

How to Grow Clover.

Mr.. Joseph Harris, in his 'Talks
on Manures," says that we can make
our lands poor by growing clover
and selling it, or we can make them
rich by growing clover and feeding
it out on the farm. Drain where
needed, cultivate thoroughly, so as
to develop the latent plant food in
the soil, and then grow clover to
take up and organize this plant food
This is how to make land rich by
growing clover. Draining and cuI-
tivating furnishes food for clover,
and the clover takes it up and pre-
pares it in best shape for other
crops. The clover does not create
plant food, but merely saves it.

Pretty Sentiment.

And do you know that it is 9
splendid thing to think that the wo-
man you really love will never grow
old to your Through the wrinkles
of time, through the mask of years,
if you really love her, you will al,
ways see the face you loved and
won. And a woman who really
loves a man does not see that he
grows old; he is not decrepit to her;
he does not tremble; he is not old;
she sees the same gallant gentle
man who won her hand and heart.
l like to think of it in that way; l
like to think that love is eternal.
And to love in that way and then

According to the last report of
the Commissioner of Agriculture it
appears that 100000 persons in
the United States are engaged in
agricultural pursuits. The total
value of farms and farm implements
is $13, 461 ,200,433, or two-thirds of
the productive wealth of the nation.
The value of farm products and live
stock in 1873 was $3,OO0,0OO,OOO,
against $2,SOO,OOO,OOO of mining and
manufacturing products. Thus it
appears that not only a majority of
the adult male population of the
United States is engaged in agricul-
ture, but more than one-half the
wealth of the Union is invested in
that industry. There are also
100000 persons engaged in manu-
featuring and mining whose interests
are closely allied with those of the
agriculturist.

TRAINING Esifars.

1t is an easy matter to train a
heifer to stand quietly to be MIXED,
but is easier to train them to Jump,
kick, and run. The way to teach
them to stand still is 10 require them
always to do so. If there is naught
to hinder a wild heifer from running.
and her fears prompt her to run, she
can and will run. If she can not
run, in a short time she loses her
fear and stands from habit; and
habit is one of the most powerful
influences in the world for either
brute or man. Ifyou want to trans
form wild heifer into a well be-
haved, well-trained COW. YOU must
be patient and exhibit no temper.
Never strike her. She must first of
all get acquainted with YOU and
learn that you will not hurt her.
She must learn not to fear you. If,
in winter, it is best to milk in the
stable, make as little fuss and as few
alarming motions as possible; han
die her very gently. Be careful not
to pinch the teats. This is the
great source of trouble. A COW
naturally wishes to be rid of her
milk. She stands quietly until some
careless mixer has given a squeeze
that hurts, when she kicks and runs.
By allowing such a course a few
times, the habit will be confirmed.
The best way to manage, if you
have no stable, is to have a well
fenced yard, and teach your heifers
to stand for milking in that; or next
best, to tie them, using them very
quietly. No man or boy is fit to
handle animals unless he can con
troll them, and control himself
Neither is it right to chastise the
ignorant Ex.
