Sewing
Machine.

1t is an acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre-
eminent among first-class machines, for
it's simplicity and light-running qualities.
1t is a mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of excellent workmanship,
and all it's wearing parts are adjustable,
SO that lost motion can be "taken up'' in
an instant.
1t is an undisputed fact that the dura-
bility of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by a written warranty for five
years
1t is progressive fact that the White
embodies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing machines,
together with advantages peculiarly its
own.
IL is a money-making fact that the
White is the easiest-selling selling ma
chine in the market, and therefore all
Wide-awake dealers make it their speciality
1t is a gratifying fact that the White
gives universal satisfaction, and that it is
steadily and rapidly increasing in public
favor.

what she wished them TO do, her in
structions were so clear and plain.
Before she had been q month in the
place, Phillips would have forfeited
any money rather than part with her.
Not that alone, but his heart was in
her keeping. for be found that the sim.
pie Irish girl possessed qualities he had
never before met until in the person OF
beautiful woman. Phillips was a
good man though neither young nor
handsome.
Kitty's heart was won, and after an
engagement of four months she became
in name what she had long been in
fact-mistress of the riding school.
One day she stepped into the yard to
inspect large lot of English horses.
Among them was huge, black ami
NAL, OF whom the stable men were evil

'Elginl' cried Kitty, rushing to the
horse. 'Elgin! My poor, poor Elginl
Elgin it was, really and truly. He
had changed owners very often, and at
last had found his way to New York.
He turned to Kitty and placed his nose
on her shoulder, trembling in every
limb. He recognized her, though years
had elapsed since they met.
Oh, the dumb gratitude of the horse
over the gentle girl he had known and
loved. He knew not how to show it.
He rubbed his nose over her hair and
face, he neighed wild welcome. Kit
ty placed her arms about his neck, and
tears gathered in her eyes.
MY own soft-hearted Irish darling!'
said Mr. Phillips. Elgin belongs to you
till the day of his death. No one else
shall ever mount him, for you alone
understand his heart. Wayward and
impetuous, but still generous and no.

Elgin was now devoted to Kitty S
use and she seldom rode any other
horse. By her skill and good sense
the little Irish girl built up her hus-
bands business, and years after she
could be seen driving out her children
IN the park in a basket carriage drawn
by Elgin.

but this spring the trouble seems tc

prevailing cow for this season seems tc
be seal brown COW with a stub tail
which is arranged as night key. She
wears it banged.
The other day l had just planted
my celluloid radishes and irrigated nay
regal Bengal turnips and sown my
hunting-case summer squashes, and
this COW went by trying to convey the
impression thatshe was out for walk
That night the blow fell The queen
of night was high in the blue vault of
heaven and tbs, twinkling stars. All
nature was hnsled, to repose. The
people of Laramie were-in their beds.
So were my hunting case squashes. l

tory where my cdluloid radishes and
picked beets are growing and | arose
X i +
1t was a lovelynight. At the head
of the procession there was a seal
brown COW with atail like the handle
of pump, and standing at an angle
of forty-five degrees. That was the
COW.
Following at rpid gait was be-
witching picture of alabaster limbs and
Gothic joints and Wamsutta muslin

The queen of night withdrew behind
a cloud.
The vision seemecto break her all
up.
Bye.and, bye there was a crash, and
the seal-brown COW vent home carry
ing the garden gate With her as a kind
of keepsake. She had plenty of garden
gates at home in her collection, but
she had none of that Particular pattern.
So she wore it home around her neck.
The writer of these lines then care
fully brushed the SAND Eoff his feet with
pillow sham and retised to rest.
When the bright Nay morn was
ushered in upon the busy world the
radish and squash beds had melted IN
to chaos and there onlyremained some
sticks of stove wood and the tracks Of
a COW, interspread with the dainty lit
tie footprints of mesPeri or other
who evidently stepped about four yards
at lick, and could wear a number
nine shoe if necessary.
Yesterday morning It'll Vas very cold,
and when | went out to esd my royal
self-acting hen, 1 found the same COW
wedged into the hen coop. 0, thrice
blessed and long sought revenge!
Now I had her. where s he could not

from tae fence, and took py coat off,
and breathed in q full breath. I did

While I was splitting On. my hands
she seemed to catch, my idea, but she
saw how helpless was her position. I
brought down the picket with the
condensed strength and eagerness and
wrath Of two long, suffering years.
There was deafening crash and then
all was still, save the low ripping
laugh of the cow, as she stood in the
alley and encouraged me as / nailed up

Looking back over my whole life, it
is strewn with nothing but the rugged

PREPARATION OF GROUND AND

1t is better to have the ground
thoroughly plowed in the fall or
winter, SO that it may settle and thus
retain moisture. When it is time to
plant, mark off the land into rows
four or four and a half feet apart, u.s.
ing bull tongue or any small plow
that can be made TO run about two
inches deep; then drop the seed i'll
the mark or furrow, two feet apart,
i'll mills, putting in six to eight seeds.
Then cover one and one half or two
inches deep, pressing the soil firmly
over the seeds. When three or four
inches high, thin ont leaving tour
stalks to the hill Cultivate often
and keep the hills free Of weeds. The
best time to plant in this latitude is
from the middle to the last of Feb
ruary, as it will then be up before the
crab grass; but it will do well
planted any time before the last of
June, provided it is not SO dry as to
prevent its coming up.

Cure for Cholera.
FROM the Western Homestead.

FROM the Western Homestead.
Every paper in the United States
ought occasionally to keep the fact
before it's readers that burnt corn is a
sure cure for hog cholera. The best
way is to make pile OF corn on the
cob, and effectually scorch it. The
remedy was discovered by Z. E.
Locke, of Lewiston, Illinois, at his
distillery, which was burnt, together
with a large lot OF corn, which was
so much injured as to he unfit for
use and hauled out and speedily eaten
by the hogs, after many of the drove
had been dying daily. After the
second day not a hog died, and the
disease entirely disappeared. The
remedy has been tried in number
of instances since, and never failed.
