CultiUator.
AT H age of three or four weeks pigs
need the most care. When the litter is
large, and the pigs at about this age. the
milk OF the SOW is not sufficient to keep
them in a steady, healthy, growing state.
They should be cared for before this
time by giving them an opportunity to
learn to eat. At this season of the year
nubbins from sweet corn will be eaten
greedily if the corn is soft. Purslane
is an excellent feed for them. Have a
trough so constructed that they can
reach into it, and they will soon learn
to eat with the mother. Small and IN
merchantable potatoes, which are always
abundant on the farm at this season of
the year, make, when boiled, an excel
lent feed for pigs. Sour milf, butter
milk and whey will bring young pigs
along rapidly.

Pleasantly Favored.

The F~renchman's food is favored be-
fore it comes to the table, and it is
artistically and wholesomely done.
Where we deluge our food with highly
spiced sauces and hot pickle-juice in
order to "give it a TASTE" the French
use delicate vegetable e and
savory herbs. Carrots, turnips, onions,
leeks, cabbage, mushrooms and truf1es,
together with tarragon, thyme, cheryil,
laurel and parsley, form the basis of
French favors. Spices they use in ex-
ceeding moderation. The essence of
common vegetables and pot-herbs COM
bined with the juices of various meats, is
the basis of all their success. The almost
infinite variety of combinations which
can be made of these simple ingredients
is astonishing. This great variety of
favors keeps the palate constantly
amused, as it were, whereas the eternal
monotony of the average English kitchen
results in a sort of gastronomic boredom,
which is to be combated only by such
violentme as strong mustard, cayenne,
and that esculent fire known as shot
pickles." So perfectly is the food favored
by French cooks that at table not even
salt need be added to it.

I do not care to buy it."
excuse me-" said the poor, little
frightened peanutter, while the tears
came into his eyes. 81 fear you want
to cheat a poor orphan boy out of his
books. Please pay me, sir, or let me
have the magazine back again. All,
sir, you would not rob me of my
goods"
"No," said the stern stranger. "I do
not wish to rob you of your book, my
boy, but I bought this on the Utah
Northern Road and paid for it. When
I went into the eating house for break
fast, the train butcher took it out of my
seat and sold it to me again in the after
noon.
81 was in the middle of an article
when we got to the dinner station, so I
turned down the leaf and left it again in
my seat. I had to buy it once more.
Now the magazine has cost me 50, and
you can sell it through Nebraska, no
doubt. No, my poor little orphan lad,
you may go and soak your head for an
hour or two and battle your tear-bedim-
med eyes, but I cannot give up my So

You Are No Gentleman.

"Do you call yourself a gentleman
is the commonest and most whitening
form of sarcasm in use, not only among
snobs, but among costermongers, coal
beavers and the like. To persons of adj
mitted ~pretensions to gentility the ques-
ton is frequently put, and perhaps neg
atively answered by the questions when
the superior person declines to recognize
a false or exorbitant claim. Thus not
long ago I was asked if I called myself
a gentleman, by q "young lady" at q
refreshment bar because I demurred at
paying her a sovereign for not having
run away with o purse that had mad
vertantly left on the counter for five
minutes. And two of her friends de-
clared that I was "no gentleman" with
out leaving any doubt in the matter. l
have been called enc gentleman, for not
paving a cabman three times his fare,
and for Directing to pay in furnished
lodgings for articles which 1 had neither
ordered or consumed. A loafer in the
street has sometimes picked up a glove
before I could pick it up for myself, or
told me that my handkerchief was hang
ing ont of my pocket. In any other coun-
try than England the commonest man
paying such attentions as these would be
insulted by this offer of q reward, but
in this country I have been freely called
emo gentleman " for not encouraging the
lowest kind of what is vulgarly called
"cadging." It seems, indeed, that to
be a gentleman in the eyes of large
classes of the community you must pay
whatever may be demanded of you upon
any pretext, and ask no questions.
Socially, the term gentleman has
become almost vulgar. 1t is certainly
less employed by gentleman than by in
ferior persons. The one speaks of ga
man I know" and the other of ga gen.
tleman I know" In the one case the
gentleman is taken for granted, in the
other it seems to need specification.
Again, as regards the term "lady." II
is quite in accordance with the usages Of
society to speak of your acquaintance
the duchess as ga very nice person.
People who would say Every nice lady
are not generally of a social class which
has much to do with duchesses and i
you speak of one of these a. a "per

Driving with the Parasol.

The other evening the Jester was
bathing his eyes in cold water, and sus-
pended the operation long enough to re-
mark
eff a woman can't take her parasol
to heaven when she dies, she won't be
happy there. She will come back after
An impressive quiet followed this dog
matte statement, and the parasols of the
court knew some of them where In for
it.
"We were driving this afternoon"
the aggrieved Jester resumed, and the
princess kindly shaded my hsad with
her parasol. It was very kind, indeed.
It limited my view of the country, at
times, to my knoe and the dashboard OF
the wagon. Whenever we met team,
especially if the road was very narrow,
the princess lowered her parasol betwsen
myself and the passing wagon, so that l
turned out by faith, or stood on my heae
to catch a glimpse of he collld1ng
wheels. When we started down a steep
hill, she dropped the parasol between
me and the horses, and I trusted to the
good sense of the animals to keep out OF
the ditch. When we met any acqualn-
tances to whom I wished to bow, she
knocked my hat into my eyes. When
she would point my admiring gaze to
some exquisitely tinted autumn leaves,
she jabbed a projecting parasol rib into
my eve. When she turned to speak to
any one in the rear seat, she rasped the
back of my neck. Oft as the carriage
struck a stone or lurched over o rut,
she prodded my long suffering head with
vicious little iabs. I drew my head
down between my shoulders and sat
crouched and bent, but the remorseless
parasol still pursued me. I have been
pelted and rasped and prodded, and all
from a mistaken sense of kindness. A
woman's unselfshness n kindness OF
heart always prompts her to hold her
parasol over the man who drives. And,
If the man who drives is allowed to choose
for himself, he will choose sunstroke in
preference to the parasol every time. ]
do not complain, mind you. I merely
make o simple statement of plain fact.
Any man who has to drive a pair oil
horses while some gentle-hearted woman
holds o parasol over him knows whatl
have suffered. And when she holds an
umbrella it is infinitely worse. Then
the man is utterly and hopelessly extin'
guished, and the material world is tc
him only a wild, blank chaos of alpaca
and whalebone."
But here her little serene highnes:
closed the debate by deciding that the
nose caught it, but the eyes had it, and
without appealing from the decision o
the chair the house adjourned.-B,o'

A Curious AnecdOte.

The late Baron James Rothschild was
persuaded by his friend. Eugene Della
croix, the distinguished painter, to sit
for him as the model of a beggar, as
much by way of a joke as because of
his capacity for excellently assuming
the appearance of a mendicant. While
he was thus disguised one day in the
artists studio one of Delacroix's young
friends and disciples entered, and was so
completely deceived by the models
woebegone appearance, that in passing
out he stealthily pressed a coin into the
old mans hand. Rothschild greatly en-
joyed his success in his assumed charac-
ter, and took the money ; but he after
ward made inquiry concerning the young
man, and learning that he was in needy
circumstances and ekeing out an exist
ence by teaching, became a very useful
friend to him and the source Of substan-
tial pecuniary aid.

Land MonopolH in California.

"With more untitled acres than there

bined, the settler who comes to Cali

says, "finds extreme difficulty in secur-
ing a home-160 acres-at even four
times as much as 160 acres would cost
him in any OF those States. Millions of
acres have been transferred from Gov
eminent to corporation control, and the
corporations, with singular blindness to
their W interests, seem to be the worst
enemy the settlers have. Other mill
ions of our best acres are locked up in
large Spanish and Mexican grants, held
for advancing rates, simply because the
machinery provided for taxing them

Aspecial from Helena, Ark, October 5th, says:
"Night before last an attempt was made to as
sassinate Simon Silverman while on his way to

hind a tree, with no other effect than to brighten
the horse ridden by Silverman, which threw its
rider without injuring him. The cause of this
attempt on Silverman's life is owing to the dis

to be his, and a Mrs. Clark claiming that she
