CHEERFUL WOMEN.

In marrying, men should seek happy
women. They make 4 terrible mistake
when they marry for beauty, for talent,
or for style. The sweetest wives are
those who possess the magic secret of
being happy under any or all circum-
stances. Rich or poor, high or low. il
makes no diffcrence-the bright little
fountain Of joy bubbles up just as music
ally in their hearts. Nothing ever goes
wrong with them; no trouble is too
serious for them "to make the best Of
it," Was eser the stream Of calamity
SO dark and deep that the sunlight Of a
happy face across its turbid side would
not awake an answering gleam9 Why,
these joyous tempered people don't
know half the good they do. No mat
Ter how cross and Grabbed you feel, no
matter il your brain is full Of medita-
tions on .'afiiiciive dispensations," and
your stomach with medicines, pills and
tonics, just get one Of those CHEEKY little
women TO talk TO you, and we are not
afraid to wager anything that she can
cure you. The long drawn line about
tOut usOutu VIII ACistAf tttC NtOAu VI sEt-
tied gloom will vanish-nobody knows
where-and the first thing you know you
are laughing. All what blessing are
these happy women. How often their
little hands guide the ponderous ma
chincry Of life with almost an invisible
touch No one knows, until the day
OF judgment reveals, how much VIC owe
TO these hopeful, accomplishing women.

Now it would be far better, in our
judgment, if, instead of re establishing

Of its first term of existence, the state

occupied the field by holding agricultural
institutes frequently in various parts Of
the state. Many good things could have
been secured, not the least of which would
have been a large accession to the mem.

wishes Of the farmers, which would have
resulted in fuller exhibitions and a greater
attendance at its fairs. The whole agricul

initiative exerted by our state society
which would thus begin to have some
thing more than II nominal or phantasmal
exislence.-Dr. HOSkGnS.

SUGGESTION AND IHcTDENr.-Having
read current paragraph to the effect that
an inch of rain on an acre of land weighs
more than 100 tons. and mistrusting All
such articles and receipts that Involve
figures, because these are very apt TO
change in the course of hasty copying
from paper to paper, friend, with meas
uring stick and multiplication table
always in his pocket, took the pains TO
make n little verihcative calculation, ana
found that the weight would be ll3 IL
ions of 1000 pounds each. An inch oil
water is barely enough to moisten dry
soil furrow deep, and to do so it must have
II considerable time to overcome the repul-
sion of the dry particles and to gradually
soak through. This nffords coed idea oil
the time and labor required to give even a
garden bed "a watering equivalent to a
soaking rain. A cubic foot OF rain water
weighs 1000 ounces. or 62 II pounds
