Selling hv Weiphf

1t can not be denied but what the
fairest way In disposing of articles
from the farm is by weight. 1t is
the only proper way; and why? Let
US take eggs, for instance. A dozen
of large eggs, under the present tar
if, brings no more than a dozen of
small ones. No one will pretend to
say there is any justice in this. Then
take potatoes or turnips, or apples
or onions, or fruit of any kind. A
person who understands dark
ways" can make by pleasuring by
the bushel or quart, a good deal
more or less according u the inter-
ests that suit HIM. In all the ber-
ries sold in the market by the quart
there is a leakage in the measure in
most instances. Honest scales
won't cheat. 1t is just as right to
sell wool by the fleece as it is eggs
by the dozen or hay by the load-as
to sell potatoes, tomatoes, wheat,
rye, barley, oats, corn, apples, ber-
rles by the quart or bushel. There
is no justice IN it, neither is there
any representation in it. The only
fair way in either buying or selling
farm products is by weight.

Preserved in Cold Water.

Have any of the Household tried
the new way of canning peaches
In cold water? A friend in Rich
mond sent me the recipe this sum
mer and l have just put up half
dozen cans. But l acknowledge l
feel "kinder jubous" about the re-
suit. We have always been told that
heat is the only agent by which we
can insure the preservation of fruit;
but this process has no beat about
it. My friend declares it is most
effective and says she has a whole
shelf full of canned peaches to prove
it; and adds that the flavor is far
more fresh and natural than that of
fruit put up by the heat process
Here is her recipe:
Families should do this: Pare and
halve the peaches, pack them slow
ly as possible in fruit cans without
any sugar; when full pour in sufi
cient cold water to fill the inter
stices, but only so as to reach the
brim of the can; let it stand for the
water to soak into all the crevices-
say 6 hours--then pour in water To
replace what has sunk away in the
peaches. Seal up the can and all is
lone. MINNIE BERRY

breast. Sod my grave nicely, and
plant tree at its head, so that the
wild birds can gather in its branches
and sing for me-" After a pause
she Continued: "But 1t seems to me
L would rather have our own birds
sing for me than wild BIRDS
Couldn't sou let brother Willie and
sister Emma bring our cage of little
birds out to the cemetery every
Sunday morning and leave them to
sing for me all day? When you are
at church in town it wouldn't seem
SO lonesome out by myself" Soon
after this Anna died, and her affec-
tionate parent did everything as she
requested. She was buried shallow,
the grave nicely sodded, and a tree
planted at it's head. And still every
morning Willie and Emma
can be seen going out to the Gene
terry with their cage of little birds
TO Annals grave.

Reading Farmers.

In ninety cases out of hundred
the successful farmer is a readir g
farmer. l one neglects to keep post
ed in agricultural matters he is
bound to fail in most of the pur
suits incident TO the farm. This is
a progressive age. The manner of
conducting a farm in this genera
tion is as different as can be from
that of our fathers. 1t is only by
reading agricultural papers and
books that We can keep up with the
times in which we live, and the far
mer who does not Improve these op
portunitles had best clay down his
shovel and hoe" When agricul-
iural papers and books are Danish
ed from the threshold of the far
ner, the probability is the farm is

There is nothing manly, my dear
boys, in making light of women.
For your mothers sake honor the
sex. Never use lady's name In an
improper place, or at an improper
time, or in mixed company. Never
make assertions about her that you
think are untrue, illusions that you
feel she herself would blush to hear.
When you meet with men who do
not scruple to make use of wo-
name name in reckless, unprinci
pied manner, shun them, for they
are the very worst members of the
community-men lost to every
sense of honor, every feeling of hu
manity. Many good and worthy
woman's character has been forever
ruined, and heart broken by lie,
concocted by an unprincipled viii
lain, but believed by people Of
good principles who are ready to
believe SANDER or condemn impru
dence as crime. The smallest things
derogatory to a woman's character
will fly on the wings OF tue wind,
and magnify as it circulates, until
its monstrOus weight brushes The
poor, unconscious victim. Remem-
Der this if you are tempted to re-
peat or listen to a scandalous tale.

the Carney house, the courthouse,
and, indeed, for many of the brick
houses in the city. Mr.. Wash. Hen
ry bought Beck from Summerhill
whenlshe was twelve years old, aud
with the exception of a few years
during the war, has kept her at
work until few years ago, when
he relieved her from duty aud fed
her for what she had done. Beck
was real mule as ever mule could
be. Moreover, she was blind, hay
ing had one eye knocked out in
her early youth and soon after los
ing the other. No man that ever
lived could have put tle harness on
Beck without going about it in
certain way. You had first to put
on the collar before any other part
of the harness was put on. If this
rule was violated Beck would kick
until every vestige of harness was
off. She could out kick creation.
She never was shod and never was
lame. Although as blind as bat
she did a wonderful amount OF
work, and did it well. Only she in
sisted upon her way of doing it.
Her life work was to haul water
and she hauled more water than any
other mule in the county. 1t is es-
timated that during her life time
she hauled over four million gal
Ions of water. During the war
Beck was taken by Confederate
soldiers but as they could not man
age her they turned her loose.
When the Federal army came
Beck was again coniscated but she
was too much for even Yankee in
genuity, and could not be coerced
into service by her captors. She
was turned loose and after many
trials and vicissltudes found her.
'elf at the close of the war in the
hands of her proper owner. For
several years past Beck had no
work to do. She passed three
ears in peaceful repose, media
ing over her checkered career, and
luietly awaiting the inevitable sum
mons. Finally she kicked out of
he wearisome harness of life, and

The Oldest Mule in the State.

MIR. Wash. Henry's blind mare
mule Beck, more generally known
as Old Bliny," died On Thursday,
of last week, 10 the seth year of her
life. She was probably the oldest
mule il the state and certainly has
done as much work as any other
mule we ever heard OF. Beck bad

Wedding Fashions.

Some years ago all brides wept
1t was the correct thing. We had
not quite emerged from the senti-
mental era. Mrs. Hemans' poetry
was much read, and we all know
how her brides behaved, weeping
on their fathers shoulder and their
mothers bosom, and reciting regret
full verses, so that one wondered the
bridegroom was not offended by so
much grief, and did not jump into
the 'chariot" and leave her there.
We are not practical now a-days.
The bride always smiles when she
leaves the vestry, and occasionally
is seen to do so when she comes up
TO the church. This last may be
coming in" but is rather q ven-
turesome thing to do just yet. She
ought, strictly speaking, to hang
her head down little bit, but not
so much as brides did twenty years
ago, but still quite perceptibly. |
There is no earthly reason why |
brides, as rule, should hang their
heads, but fashion DEGREES that they
shall. They are going to marry
the man of their choice. They are
leaning on the arm of
father of whom theiy are proud.
Why should they hang their heads?
Perhaps fashion provides the Gus
ON in order to meet the c. Sc OF
he brides who really ought TO hang
heir heads; those who IRE selling
themselves for a title, for an estab
ishment, for landed estates-even
or a home. However this may be,
,en years hence the dropping head
will have quite gone one truth.

Love at First Sight.

An almost incredible romance has
happened in Wisconsin, and if it
had not been vouched for by so re-
liable authority as the Racine Jour-
nal it would be rejected altogether.
The story, as the Journal tells it, is,
that ga resident of Racine named
Johnson, who has roamed through
this world for about thirty-five
years, having never met the choice
of his heart, was walking up Main
street, when he was met by bux-
ON looking country girl; she blush
ed and he was confused, and there
was no getting around it, it was a
case of love at first sight. They
talked earnestly tor about half an
hour, the friends having departed.
They soon parted with kiss, she
going north and he going south. In
the course of two hours both made
their appes rance again on Main
street, dressed up in fine style.
They kissed again, and she took
his arm and they walked off. And
ut two O'Clock they were united in
marriage. He made her acquaint-
ance, popped the question and mar
RED her inside of three hours

Once upon time a man got mad
at the editoc and stopped his,paper.
The next week he sold his corn at
4 cents below the market price.
Then his property was sold for taxes,
because he didn't read the sheriffs
sales. He was arrested and fined
IS for going a hunting on Sunday,
and he paid 1909 for lot of forged
notes that had been advertised two
weeks and the public cautioned not
TO negotiate them. He then paid a
bIg Irishman, with a foot like
forge hammer, to kick him all the
way to the newspaper Office, where
he paid -four years subscription in
advance and made the editor sign
an agreement to knock him down
and rob HIM if he ever ordered his
paper stopped again. Such is life
without a newspaper Colum bia
Banner.
