Prof. PrOctOr's Romance.

The romance of the coming marriage of
the English astronomer, Professor r. A.
Proctor, is given by the ST. Joseph (Mo.)
News as follows:
Some time during the early part Of last
year Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Crawley of St.
Joseph left here, seeking the health of the
former in a trip to Australia. About the
same time the famous astronomer, Profess
or Proctor, set out from Liverpool, accom-
panied by his wife, who had long been in
delicate health. Their objective point was
Australia. the motives prompting the step
doubtless being about the same as in the
case of Mr.. and Mrs, Crawley. The health
seeking parties arrived on foreign soil
about the same time. and circumstances
conspired to place them in intimate ac-
quaintance. For time the change Of eli
mate was beneficial to both invalids; but
it was only temporary in both instances,
and in August they both died, their deaths
occurring within a few days of each other.
Both the living were grief stricken at their
loss, and the many peculiar condolences
served to arouse the sympathy Of each for
the other. Their mission was fruitless
one, so far as saving the lives Of their help
mates was concerned, and shortly after
they took passage in the same steamer, in
tending to return to their respective homes.
1t is sufficient to know, however, that the
Professor at the same time w0oed and won
the St. Joseph lady, and their marriage il

Of water is desirable. When you plant a
cranberry patch, procure large productive
vines from Northern Indiana, New Jersey,
or some well proven district, and set them
in rows two feet apart each way; or smaller
ones may be set nearer together. After
planting, thick layer of sand Il to 2inches)
over the ground will facilitate keeping down
the weeds and grass, which is very neces-
sary until the plants we'll cover the ground
Swamp muck is beneficial to cranberries,
and the plants should be thoroughly
mulched. As the berry is very healthful
and popular one. of course it is profitable
compared with the needful expense and
care. For moderately dry soils the Mans
field Creeper variety is preferred; and for
low lands the Eaton Black Bell, though the
common Bell and Cherry are good enough
For setting out spring is preferable, though
early summer, and even fall will do.

FIRST TIME AT CHURCH.

A grave, sweet wonder in thy baby face,
And look Of mingled dignity and grace,
Such as painter hand might love to trace.
4 pair of trusting, innocent blue eyes,
That higher than the stained glass window rise,
Into the fair and cloudless summer skies.
The people round her sing, ttAbove the sky
There's rest for little children when they de-
To her-thus gazing up-that rest seems nigh.
The organ peals; she must not look around,
Although with wonderment her pulses bound
The place wherein she stands is holy ground
The sermon over. and the blessing said,
She bows-as ssmother" does-her golden head
And thinks of little sister who is dead.
She knows that now she dwells above the sky,
Where holy children enter when they die,
And prays God take her there too, by and by.
Pet may He keep you in the faith always,
Where all shall have their child-hearts back
one day. Chambers Journal

Bee Notes in Brief.

Mr.. James Hedden. Of Michigan, whose
bees have brought to him snug little for
tune, concludes that chatf hives are too
costly and cumbersome. He also explains
why he has given up his house apairy.
Many Of these structures were built a few
years since, but they are mostly deserted
now $50. Only put enough combs in the
hive in spring to supply space for the bees;
keep them covered with bees if it takes no
more than three or even two combs ......
It is very rare to find colonies queenless in
the spring if they had good queen in the
fall. The queen is usually the last to die.
It is not well to put a colony in hive just
as it was left by bees dead from the dyson
terry, The unwholsome odor and soiled
combs would be very likely to drive the
bees of. It is safe to give such combs to
bees one at time, but to give no other
would be hazardous !. &. /. For information
as to the method of transferring bees from
box hives into those of movable frames, in.
quirers shonld procure good manual of
beekeeping. No one can afford to keep
bees in the old style hives.

What is q Cold.

To enjoy life, one must be in good
health; and to remain FREQ from disease is
the desire of ALL Yet there are some all
ments which do not intefere very much with
the pleasures of life, and therefore are
not dreaded in consequence-nay, more,
they are frequently treated with neglect;
although in many instances they are the
precursors of more serious disorders, which
may in not few cases have fatal termin-
alton! How often to the usual greetings
which one friend exchanges with another,

Let nae, then, pray my readers to remember
that small beginnings in not few instances
have big endings, and this especially where
disease exists. Let us then consider what
is common cold.
In the first place, we must be paradoxical,
and affirm that it is not cold at all. 1t is
rather heat, if I may SO express myself
that is, it is form of fever, but, of course,
of very mild type when it is uncomplicat-
ed by other diseases. It is certainly in the
majority of instances due to the effects of
cold playing upon some portion Of the body,
and reacting on the mucous membrane
through the Intervention of the nervous ap-
paratus. What is called cold, then, is in
reality fever; and, though in the majority
of instances it is of such trivial nature as
to necessitate few precautions being taken
during it's attack, yet in some cases it runs a
most acute course, ard may be followed by
great prostitution. Even when the premon-
itory symptoms of a cold are developing
themselves, when, for example, what a
medical man calls rigor, or, as it is popu-
larly designated, a shivering is felt, when
we would naturally suppose that the animal
temperature is below par, it is at that very
moment higher than the normal, thus show

A Farmer's Way With Asparagus.

AFarmers Way With Asparagus.
From the New York Tribune
have about one third of an acre Of as
paragus, and I find it the most profitable
piece of ground in my garden I have tried
different systems IL management, and have
settled upon this one: My plan is to keep
out all the;frost 1 can in the winter, and
then get rid of what does get in as early as
possible ID the spring. To this end I leave
the rank summers growth standing, to catch
and hold the snow; this forms the best Gov
e:ing possible to keep out frost. leave it
in this condition SO long as freezing influ-
ences predominant. When the weather
turns in the spring so that frost is leaving,
cut the old stalks and rake and burn as
clean as possible. am sometimes able
in dry time, to clean it by setting fire
along an edge; if necessary, assist the fire
by moving and raking such tufts as do not
catch. A mulch keeps out frost, but then
it retards the warming up Of the soil in
spring So I clear up the bed in good shape
in early spring; rake chips and rubbish into
little piles, and burn everything that can
AS soon as the ground is dry enough, I go
on with spring tooth harrow and cut and
cross it until the whole patch is like seed

down before the shoots start, I 20 over it
again. In this way get asparagus out Of

come.

are cutting, for if keep the ground stir ed
it will be muddy after rains. We cut until
We have green peas. The last time over
we cut everything that shows, go right on
with the spring tooth harrow, use horse

give it q most thorough dressing, haul on

ings up generally of the farm. The as
paragus bed is the catch all of the farm
during the summer, but the rank growth
hides every blemish and it makes it beau
dful spot. We throw all the summers
weeds into it. When we cut burdocks we
drag them out into the bed. The rank un-
dergrowth of the asparagus keeps down
weeds, but we go through it several times
during the summer with double-shovel
ploughs, and if necessary with hand hoes.
There may be better methods, but we make
success of asparagus, which we could not
do If compelled to make it so laborious as
is often directed in newspaper articles. In
all of our Western methods we have to

which passes the bounds of economy and
proves disastrous. do not think that as

It comes SO early, when people are hungry
for something green, that the demand is

calls for degree of forethought and care
which but few people possess.-[J. W.

Professor Shelton is credited with show

careful tests by burying in wheat bins sacks
of grain, and noting systematically any
changes in weight.

Arrival of the Victory and Barges to Carry

Arrival of the Victory and Barges to Garry
Wheat by River and Ocean to Glasgow.
The steamer Victory, Capt. Nose Hall,
Clerk Hall, towing barge No. 81 of Jay
Gould's st. Louis & New Orleans Transporta-
ton company, arrived here from st. Louis at
1OA.M yesterday. The barge, having triple
shell of iron, has 1900 tons capacity, equiya-
lent to about $4,000 bushels of wheat. 1t
draws light eighteen inches of
water, has eight feet depth of hold,
and is 200 feet long, with
six matches and as many water-tight compart-
ments. Ventilating holes through the outer
shells, at the bow, side and stern, calculated
to produce free circulation of air between
the shells, equalizing the temperature of the
interior, and preserving the lading from any
form of moisture. Loading will be
begun at Elevator A this morning,
and it is expected that the thirty thousand
bushels of wheat for Glasgow, contracted by
David Bows & Co., will be loaded IN sixteen TO
eighteen hours, so that the Victory can start
with her tow at an early hour tomorrow:
The barge will arrive at New Orleans in about
twelve days from leaving here, when the gram
will be transferred by floating eleya-
tor to the vessel in which
it is to be carried over the ocean
to Glasgow. The Victory also brought up a
large wooden barge of the X. N. line, built up.
on nearly the same plan as the iron barge, the
Intention being to take on the wooden barge a
OF of miscellaneous freight which will be trans
ferred to the iron barge at st. Louis.
The experiment of sending our northern
wheat uiG New Orleans&s to Europe is
being tried at the very season of the
year when, according to grain men, it has been
thought impossible to prevent wheat from
being injured, if not spoiled, by the heat and
moisture of the lower Mississippi and Gulf.
If the experiment of this season proves sue
cess, there can be no doubt of the practicabiity
of shipping grain in bulk from any port OF the
Mississippi 7alley via New Orleans to Euro
pean markets.
