Soulptors' Models.

The human model is now considered
an essential of every large art school,
and American artists are not behind
Frenchmen in opportunities TO study
from life, as the following from the
New York Tribune will show:

said the servant, as a visitor knocked at
the door of a sculptor's studio.

just then the sculptor appeared, his
hands covered with clay. I'm

leading to another room closed quickly
as the visitor entered the studio. Busts,
statues, torsos, and medallions were
ranged about on shelves and on the
floor. On the stand in the middle of
the room was a nude female figure, half
modelled in clay. The sculptor, taking
his chduchof,', a sharp-pointed iron in
strumcnt, began daintilv smoothing and
trimming the clay limbs of the statue.

feet and study The reflection in a glass
hung opposite. A faint rustling as of a
woman's drapery caused the visitors
eyes to turn interrogatively to the clos
ed door.
Eyes, that's the ,mode." said the
sculptor. ''She has just finished posing
for two hours, and is getting ready to go.
"How do you find models?" asked
the visitor.
.'Well. this one / heard of from another
artist. There's no systematized way of
getting them, but one hears of them in
different studios. Then, sometimes
girls come and offer to pose, and one
occasionally runs across men and
women himself who are adapted to the
purpose. and willing to earn money in
this way. There are, perhaps, no pro-
fessional models here, but In Paris
whole families are brought up to the
business. which is followed IS a regular
calling. We depend on anything we
can find that is suitable"

Why liz REsIGSED-lt appears,
according to Washington special,
that General Frcmont's resignation of
the Governorship of Arizona was made
upon the notification Of President
Arthur that such resignation would be
acceptable, Continued complaints were
coming from Arizona that General
Fremont had not taken any interest
IN the affairs of the Territory, that he
bad since his appointment as Governor
merely put iu an appearance, as it
were, and that he seemed to regard
the climate and society Of New York
as more agreeable and attractive than
that Of the Territory Of Arizona. Gen,

RURAL PROGRESS.

What beautiful change has come
over the rural districts within the last
few years. 10 travelling through the
country, either by private conveyance
or on the great thoroughiare, we see
tho beautiful, well cultivated farms,
large fruit orchards, commodious barns,
elegant houses with shrubbery and
flowers adorning the front yards and
piazzas The beautiful is not now
confined TO the cities. Homes with
modern improvements and cOnvenien.
ces meet US everywhere. FIVE should
go into those homes we would find
them nicely and many times elegantly
furnished. Books, papers, and maya.
zines in great prolusion and variety,
musical instruments from which sweet
tones emanate, render those homes
cheerful. Sons and daughters with
more and intellectual powers cultiva
ted, husband and wife cultured, refined
and Informed on the leading topics Of
the day, and Of tho highest type OF
hospitality and sociabilty, and com.
pauy Of Patrons meeting together,
seem like brothers and sisters of one
family, and though strangers at first
sight soon become like old time
friends.
1t is past our comprehension how
much the Grange has done Tor the
farmers family. 1t has opened up an
avenue to wealth, honor and self
respect, aud demand for respect from
others, demand for rights and privi-
leges which have not been ours to en-.
JOY in the past, both because we did
not claim our right to them, and thus
were appropriated by others. Farmers
have n power in the community in
which they live, and they are WELD.
ing it for the good of humanity. This
power is being felt to day, and will
be more forciby realized in years to
come. There is true moral worth in
very many of the homes in the rural
districts, and it is destined to shine
forth. Our sons and daughters are
given grand opportunities to become
useful men and women in society.
These are glorious days in which to
live-days of improvement, progress
sion, intellectual advancement and true
sociabilily. Let US improve them

THE MAINE LAWN MAINE.
CLEARFIELD, ~

Maine Is the home of General Neal
Dow and of prohibition. Prohibition
in other States is borrowed and second.
hand--an imported exotic ln Maine
IL ls found in its original purity. 1t
had its origin on Maine soil, and grows
there spontaneously, There is no
liquor sold in Maine. There is no
liquor bought in Maine. There is no
liquor manufactured 10 or brought into
the State Of Maine. 1t is against the
Maine law to do any Of these things !
therefore, it logically and inevitably
follows that there is no liquor drank
in Maine. This is IN inferential de.
cision, but ii is tho necessary product
of irrefragablo logic and therefore be.
yond the reach Of question
But there are divorce suits in Maine
IA good many of them. This is
strange. But there is a stranger thing
still in many OF these suits brought
by wives against their husbands the
ground of complaints is drunkenness
"habitual drunkenness" In the proper
court in Portland there were thirty.
six new applications for divorce filed
in one week-twenty seven of them
by wives, and in ten of these habitual
drunkenness on the part Of husbands
is the ground on which separation is
asked.
OF course the malignant opponents
Of statutory teetotalism will leap iero
ciously to the conclusion that prohibi,
tion is striking failure in the very
spot Of its origin that it is as easy to
get inebriating agents in that State as
any other; that an unusually large
percentage of Maine husbands not only
drink the aforesaid inebriating agents,
but drink them in o shamefully untec,
total manner; for, how else, they will
spiteiully ask, can there be so much
habitual drunkenness2 The sufficient
answer to this atrocious question which
seeks TO impugn a conspicuous reform
is that prohibition is not a failure in
Maine and cannot be. General Dow
has asserted this n dozen times-and
he will reiterate it q dozen times more
If necessary. The Maine law forbids
liquor to be manufactured in, brought
to, sold or given away in the State,
and that settles the question. If peo.
plo get drunk in Maine it must be on
something else.-& Louis Republican.

SOlLE TALUABLE EXPERIMENTS IN
PIG FEEDING

One of our Agricultural Colleges
made some valuable experiments last
Fall in the matter of feeding pigs, that
farmers having hogs to fitten this year
will do well to consider.
The object OF the experiment was to
determine the influence Of, protection
from, or exposure to the weather in
the cost Of meat production, and the
respective value of corn and bran as 0
food for fattening the hogs,
The experiment began November
lst, 1881, and continued eleven weeks
Ten Berkshire pigs were taken, and
each put in pen by himself. The
previous care and feed having been
the same.
Five of the pens were placed IN the
basement of warm stone barn, and
five on the south side of q five foot
board fence with plenty of straw but
no other protection.
The result was as follows:
In the pens in the barn where the
pigs fed corn alone, 100 pounds in.
crease of live weight required 5l5
pounds of corn.
In the pens in the yard, fed corn
alone, 100 pounds increase live weight
required $40 pounds of corn,
In the protected pens where corn
and bran were fed together, 100 pound.
increase in live weight required 4Sll
pounds Of corn, aud 7Oi pounds oil
bran.
In the unprotected pens where corn
aud bran were fed, 100 pounds of in.
crease of live weight required 577i
pounds Of corn, and s3i pounds OF
bran.
A noticeable feature in tho expert.
ment was, the pigs outside consumed
much less food than those inside as
well as gave less increase for what
they did consume. As the hog is val.
uablc in proportion to bis ability in
converting grain into pork, this was
Of course, an additional Incidental loss
connected with feeding in exposed
pens,
Two lessons are very clear as the
result of experiments. Bran is not O
profitable feed to use in fattening hogs,
and it don't pay to have pigs exposed
to the weather.
Taking the experiment in which the
pigs outside did the best, and compar.
ing 1t with the pigs inside, and the
farmer who produced 10000 pounds
OF pork would lose 6l bushels of corn
IN the operation
1t was found that 81 pounds of corn
were about equal to 75i rounds Of
bran.
Of course no one set Of experiments
can settle matter of this kind, but
this experiment points very clearly in
one direction, and this year, when
corn and pork are both high. and it is
desirable to produce as many pounds
of pork as possible from n bushel Of
corn, farmers will do well TO note
these facts, and consider If it will not
pay well to give the fattening pigs the
warmest and most protected quarters
possible.--R. s. r., in Live Patron.
