As good as wheat and "as steady as wheat are time-honored similes but they have, in these days of universal speculation, lost their fitness. Wheat may be good, but it has ceased to. be steady anywhere in this country. In many parts of the West, notably in Da- kota, raising wheat has assumed the form of craze. The wheat excitement in that Territory and along the line of the Northern Pacific railroad, during spring and summer is remarkable and curious. The company sells lasd on small payments down, balance on long time and very easy terms, so that al- most anybody can buy. The railway meets part of the expense of side tracks fer every section where they are desired, ironing the siding where a roadbed and ties have been furnished in any place within four or five miles of it's main line. The wheat is sown in the spring, and then needs very little care until it has ripened. It i, threshed in the field, and put directly on the cars. The work is comparatively light after the soil has been prepared for seeding, and the profits on crops have thus far been large. Under these en- couraging circumstances hundreds of enterprising farmers throughout the West have turned farmers on few hun dred dollars capital, railway employees, business men, clerks, and even servant girls at Fargo and Bismarck beng among the number. Nearly all of them are bold and speculative. Instead of conter ting themselves with a quarter section they generally take three or four entire sections. Neither barns nor out houses are built-they are unnecessary and nobody thinks of living on the land in winter. The ground is broken with gang-plows; the sowing is done with horse drills; the reapipg accom-. . plished with improved machines, and all | by contract so that the farmer" has little else to do than pay the bills and get the profits, which have often been as high as 30 per cent. a year-on the whole investment. When harvest time draws near, laborers come in from all directions, many of them travelling hun dreds of miles, to work in the fields, which are then very animated. Natur- ally this has so stimulated speculation that scores of men go wholly beyond their means, and when there is a bad season, as there my be any time, fail ure and bankruptcy will be spread. -NelO York Times.

REM4RKADLE wArc Itra.

The night watchmen ut the Eastern Penitentiary of Pennsylvania have very able assistants in brute companions, whose instinct and superior training is little less than remarkable. These are trained watch-dogs, nine altogether, em- bracing one full mastitf, two full blood hounds and the rest half-breed blood hounds. They are kept in three distinct kennels, in as many separate inclosures, into which the prison-yard is divided. The fences divide them and they never meet. Certain indications have showed that if they did there would be several very tough dog-fghts. When the night watchmen are on duty the dogs are un- leGshed and accompany them on their patrol, but the canine guards are more effective in their way, as they penetrate the angles and out-of-the-way places, while the human watchmen follow the beaten paths. If the dogs hear any un- usual noise, or find anything irregular, they notify the guard by a sharp bark Their capacity to discover attempted es- capes has never been fully tested, inas- much as the convicts stand in too whole some dread of them to dream of such thing during the dog-watch.
 An instance Illustrating the wonder ful instinct of these brute sentinels de- veloped not long ago. The guard one night was startled by a warning bark from one of the dogs, which he found thirty or forty yards from point where small ventilating pipe led from the in- terior of the prison. A cautious inves- tigation showed that one of the con- victs on that gallery, but occupying cell on the opposite side of the idor, being sick, was endeavoiing to attract the attention of the inside watch. The dog had discovered the unusual noise in the sound conveyed through the drain pipe which the keepers on the inside of the building had failed to notice. The suffering convict was afforded assistan 20 which he otherwise would not have ob- tained.

SIrrING RnLL,S SPEECH.

Bill Nye, the Indian editor of tie Laramie City Daily Boomerang, gives the following translation of Sitting Bulls speech to his followers:
 Warriors, I am the last of mighty race. We were a race of chieftains. Alas we will soon be gone. The Bull family will soon pass from the face ot the earth. Ole is gone, and John is falling and l don't feel very well my self We are victims of the pale-faces, and our lands are taken away.
 Look at the sad remnant of the fam fly of Sitting Bull, your chief. One sore-eyed squaw is left alone. Her face is furrowed OCT with the famine of many winters, and her nose is only the ruin of former greatness. Her mocca- sins are worn out, and the soldier pants she wears are too long for her. She also is drunk. She is not as drunk as she can get, but she is hopeful and perse- vering. She has also learned to lie like the white man. She is now an easy, ex- temporaneous liar. When we gather around the camp fire and enact our un- tutored lies in the gloaming, Lucretia Borgia Sitting Bull, with the inspiration of six fingers of agency coffin varnish, proceeds to tell the prize prevarication, and then the house adjourns, and noth- ing can be heard but the untitled tread of the agency corn beef, going out to get some fresh air. Lucretia Borgia is Also becoming slovenly. It is evening, and yet she has not donned her evening dress. As she leans against the trunk of mighty oak and scratches hel back, you can see that her thoughts are far away She is thinking of hel childhood days by the banks of the Minnehaha.
 Warriors, farewell Think of wha I have said to you about the counci fire, and govern yourselves accordingly We will not mur1nur at the cellu.oiC cracker and cast-iron codfsh ball, bu in the spring we will have veal cutleti for breakfast, and Peace Commissions on toast for dinner The squaw of Sit ting Bull shall have new plug hat, anC if the weather is severe she shall hay, two of them.
 Warriors, farewell. I am done.

4 SALT-WArER BATH 1T HOME.

In order to supply the continent from seashore to center, from the metropolis to the frontier, with sea water, it is not necessary to barrel and bottle it, nor to build pipe line. The more excellent way is to reduce their bulk by evapora- tion, and, when old ocean is dry and clean, pack it away in boxes wei ghing from one pound to fifty pounds. Then send it by express or freight to its des- tination. All the saline properties of the sea are intact, and by adding the proper quantity of water to marine salt, a bath is obtained which contains, be- sides salt Chloride of sodium), the sulphate and chloride of magnesia, the sulphate of lime and soda and traces of the chloride of potassium and io- dine
 But while we summon modern skill and enterprise to ou1 service, we must remember the beneficial effect of sea bathing is not Q modern or an individual discovery. The salutary effect of a plunge into the surf is universally ly recog- nized, and its practice instinctive where and when the atmospheric conditions admit of it. Many persons find its in- huence over the physical and nervous system so healthful that they consider 1t essenti 1 to spend few weeks or few days at the sea shore, even at great ex- pense or great inconvenience, for thev thus hope to lay up 6 store of health and strength which will last for months. ] The record of the seaside resorts of our coasts for the past few years shows the great and growing popularity of sea bathing. Modern chemistry analyzing he properties of sea water declared it a tonic and remedial, a corrective of dis ease and conserYator of health. Food | dudiIIedLH.

WHAT !" WIFE. MEANS.

Says Ruskin: "What do you think the beautiful word wife comes from It is the great word in which the En- glish and Latin languages conquered the French and Greek. I hope the French will some day get word for it instead of .femnle. But what do you think it comes from? The great value of the Saxon words is that they mean -omething. Wife means 'weaver?' ? You must either be house wives or house, moths, remember that. In the deep sense, you must either weavemen's fortunes and embroider them, or feed upon and bring them to decay. Wher- ever true wife comes, home is always around her. The stars may be over her head, the glow-worm in the nights cold grass may be the fire at her feet, but home is where she is, and for noble woman it stretches far around her, bet ter than houses ceiled with cedar or painted with ermillion-shedding its i quiet light for those who else are home less. This, I believe, is the woraan's true place and power"

4 PINT TDEAL WOMAN.

In Athens the ideal man must have intellect as well as strength, grace, cult ure, beauty as well as courage and pat riotism wlile the woman who would be respected and made the mothor of fu- ture citizens must be modest, home staying, gentle, and essentially subordi- nate to her master. Rome saw the idsalization of physical force in man ant of a corresponding masculine character in wo1uan-a certain virility and powe which borrowed something of their stoicism from the Spartans and some- thing of their ferocity from the Israel ties. The Scandinavians, men and women both, were the northern tram scripts of the Roman ideal; but-con- fining ourselves now to the feminine ideal only-the lady of the middle ages in some respects went back to the Athenian form, her virtue lying less in strength than in patience, less in patri- otism than in doniesticity, less in cour- age than in sweetness. in self-sacrifice and in love.

C.lLMS IN WENTER.

In all countries where the weather in thn winter is intensely cold, the atten- ton of the stranger is called to the fact that in the bitterest cold days and nights fhe weather is always calm and clear !; for were the wind to blow at such time, neither man nor beast would Le able to withstand the blast. Clear weather in winter denotes dry atmosphere, and a dry atmosphere, being favorable to ra- diation, permits the heat to escape from the earth faster than the sun imparts it ; at such times it turns cold. There is, on such occasions, not enough vapor in the air to be condensed even into cloud The result is, that the weather remains clear and cold, until the winds, which are put in motion by some of the agents elsewhere, which give circulation to the atmosphere, bring vapor-laden air to re lieve the cold. The vapor is immedi- ately condensed into clouds or snow, its latent heat is set free, and, this being con. verted into sensible heat, it warns the air, and the intense cold is at an end Maury's Physical Geography.

THE LTHE-KrLN CLER.

Let me warn ye," began the old man, as Pickles Smith hung up the wa ter dipper ard sat down with heavy jar, let me warn ye dat de man who has de mos inimies am de man who fat ters hisself on his bluntness, truthful ness an common sense. De grandest motto on airth am de one which says: Spoke de truf at all times, but it aint the wisest one to foller. I has foun' dat exagGerashun pleases whar' truf hurts, m dat fiattery amuses whar' truf engen- ders anger. Spoke de truf of your nay burs, an one of ye will have to move inside of var. Spoke de truf of your friends, and you will be confronted by a legion of inimies. You may know in yer own mind dat dis man am rogue, dat one a rascal an' de odder one right up an down wicked, but you musn't talk what ye know. One blunt word will upsot a whole nay burhood. One truful statement will raise up host of howlin' inimies. De pusson who won't flat ter and eajole am avoided and sus- pected. De biggest inimies I have in all dis world am people who have had my honest opinyun, az to whom have spoken de plain truf. Only one man out of fifty axes yer honest opinyun wid any ideah of 'ceptin' it if it differs from his. Not one in 100 axes yer advice wid any ideeh of follerin' it onless it iibes wid his plans.
 "Darfore, say to you, be blunt only when you have no keer for friendsh p. Be truful only when you am ready to make inimies. Condemn only when you am all packed up and ready to become a hermit. Tell lie about man an he'll ! grin ober it. Hit him wid de truf an he will foller you until he has secured revenge. In walliin' aroun' for half a day I can make a score of men friends by praisin' de looks of hat, de set of a coat, de grace of a step CT de fit of new 1 par of butes. Months and months ago I dropped word of praise fur cur dog which was trottin' long citizen. De odder day dat same man walked past twenty to gib me job of whitewashin' Fact is, though I'm old an bald-headed an stoop-shouldered, it does me hear of good to have Some man stop me or de street an lie to me like blazes in say in dat I'm looking as young as man of 30.

BECAUSE he bore the name of Thomas, a citizen of Halberstadt, Germany, has committed suicide. After the explosion of Thomassen's infernal machine, in the harbor of Bremen, he applied to the Government for leave to change his name, but permission was denied. He WAS SO distressed by this refusal and by the tests he had to bear in consequence that he withdrew wholly from social in- terconrse and became moody and mis- anthropic. Finally he determined to seek relief in death, and, after several at- tempts at suicide which were frustrated, succeeded in hanging himself. He took care, in preparing for his end, to burn mp his valuables, so that no human creature should derive benefit from them.

EMBROIDERED HANDKERCHIEFs.

There should be no soaking, and the embroidered corner kept out of the water as much as possible. A little alum in the water will make the process more sure.
