DRINKING IN THE HAY-FIELD.

Men in health perspire freely when
vigorously at work on warm days.
Very heavy sweating may sometimes
arise from weakness; dry skin may
indicate disorder Evaporation from
the surface carries off heat and keeps
the body cool. A larger supply of
drinking water is required for the warm
having and harvest days, but much less
than is commonly supposed. Half
pint of water slipped slowly will assuage
thirst much more eflectually than a
quart gulpcd down. a different tenn
perature in two adjacent portions of
the body produces congestion. a pint
of cold fluid of any kind thrown into
the stomach may result in more or less
congestion; serious illness, and not un-
frequently deaths, arise from this cause.
If ice-water is taken at any time, it
should always be swallowed so slowly
that the stomach can warm each gill
before taking another.
As to the kinds of drink, the positive
teachings of medical science and exper-
ience indicate that pure water is by far
the best fluid for assuaging thirst and
supplying the wants of the system.
Beers, ales, sweetened drinks, or any
fluid that contains material that must
be digested, are 4 tax upon the stomach
and tend to disorder the system. If
taken at all. ii should be only with other
food. Pure water is absorbed at once
into the blood, and is carried directly
TO those parts of the body where it is
needed. If the water is bad, it may
usually be corrected by the addition of
little ginger or ginger extract; too
much of this will produce constipation,
but on this account may be used more
freely in looseness of the bowels. All
alcoholic drinks are unhealthful for one
in active exercise. They stimulate in
creased cfIort-eflort beyond ones nat
ural strength-and unnatural exhaust
ion inevitably follows. Just so far as
any one raises himself above normal
condition by alcoholic stimulants, just
so far below this condition viii he sure
IL sink few hours after, and the eleva-
ting and depressing operation wears
upon and disorders the machinery of
the body.-Americd AgricaJturjSt.

NOTES.

Vermont has $4,000 farms, of which
only 81 contain as many as LOCO acres.
New York has just shipped 1900
bushels of wheat to Cape Town, Africa.
100000 bushels of salt are used in
Chicago annually for preserving meats.
Lad is cheap in Sonth Australia
For tract of nearly 5000 square miles
only SAB a mile was offered.
Bees can be improved as easily as
dairy or other stock, if by careful sclec-
ton the best queens are chosen.
Mutton breeds of sheep are rapidly
coming to the front, and America is
likely TO take front rank for good
mutton.
The future for profitable sheep bust
ness is good. The stock in England is
small, and good mutton sheep will be
in great demand.

There is an insect called by some the
''grape beetle" which is very destruc-
tive to grapes in some localities. a grape
grower at Poughkeepsie, n. Y, says:
MY method of destroying the beetle
consists in picking it oil the vines with
the thumb and forefinger and pressing
TO death between them. A gentleman
of experience in grape culture informed
me last year that he thought | would
suffer bat a short time in this way, for,
he said, few years ago the same pest
appeared in the eastern part of the
county, cutting of TO a great extent the
crop of grapes, but after while the in
sects disappeared, and no further an
noyance was experienced"

RAISE YOUR OWN SEED CORN.

The time TO plan for this is now,
while the corn crop is going in or under
cultivation. II is a reasonable thing TO
say that a tenth may be added 10 the
Weld OF corn on any farm by using seed
that has been carefully raised for the
purpose. Not much attention is paid
to the selection of seed by the average
farmer. The man who reads and thinks
about the seed used for his crops selects
the best that he can find in his crib al
planting time, and finds that il pays.
1t pays still better TO select ears from
the field the fall previous TO planting,
from stalks that bear two or more per-
feet ears. A better practice still is TO
plant corn for seed in a small patch by
itself, and guard it against all the acct
dents that must attend its growth and
cultivation in the larger field. The
ground should be specially prepared for
this purpose, and made rich enough to
supply all the wants of the plant. III
should be thoroughly cultivated every
two or three weeks until the grain is
full in the ear. Like produces like in
corn as in cattle, and the silk and the
tassel are both factors in giving char
acter to the ear. Though the male and
female blossoms in the corn are upon
the same plant, there is no security for
Standardization when any plant is
grown in the open field. The pollen
from a barren stalk may fall upon the
ear grown from selected seed, and this
car may be imperfect, or be cob with
little or no corn on it. If the ears Sc
lected for seed have been fortified by
a nubbin stalk, the nubbin imperfection
goes down to posterity. la small
piece of corn planted remote from other
corn we may guard against the acct
dents of promiseuous fertilization, and
secure as far as possible corn with
GOOD pedigree and perfect after its kind.
All barren stalks should be cut out, and
no more stalks be left in the hill than
will give perfect ears. If the owner
will select from this patch the earliest
and best formed ears for his seed, and
follow up this practice for few years,
he viii have new variety and large
increase in his yield.-Er.

A Smiling NexysdeaIer.

Mr.. II. B. Polkinhorn, the well-known
newsdealer on Louisiana avenue, near the
Post-ofiice, for some time past has been in
the habit of getting down to his place of
business rather late in the morning, very
much to the disgust of his clerk. The
reason Mr.. Polkinhorn invariably
gave the clerk for being late
was that his watch had run
down and he forgot to wind it. A poor ex-
cuse is better than nvne, we know; but in
future Mr.. Polkinhorn will have to find
another excuse Or another clerk, for yester-
day he bought can ofcotfee from the In
porters' Tea Company, $40 Market Space,
and found in the can a first-class chate-
laine watch worth SIS, splendid time

The Christiancy Case Again.

Messrs Ingcrsoll and Cuppy, counsel for
ex-senator Christiancy in the divorce suit
against his wife, have filed o motion in the
cause asking the appointment OF a special
examiner to take further testimony in
New York, in rebuttal of q certain portion
of that put in by the defendant to the
original bill. In behalf of Mrs. Chris
tiancy certain letter and receipt, purport-
ing to have been written and signed by
Edil Giro, were put in with other
evidence. The complainant desires to
take the dispositions Of Venture Bar
gallo, Frederick Hemming, Jose Godoy
and Calvin d. Hayward, all of whom are
acquainted with Giro and his hand
writing, to prove that the papers above
referred to are forgeries deliberately perpe
trated. They also ask that the testimony
Of Arthur Terry and G. Huss, LeB. Tuttle,
Of New York, and Harry H. Beadle, of
Brooklyn, be taken for the purpose Of
showing that the reputation of Joseph l.
Barnuin for truth and veracity is bad. 1t
will be remembered that the latter testi-
fed in behalf of Mrs. Christiancy and pro-
fessed to give certain statements as having
been made by Giro in his pres
ence. They occupied an Office in New
York together and Barnum swore
to occasions in which Giro boosted what he
had done and what he would do with Mrs.
Christiancy if she broke friendship with
him also that, while having returned her
letters he could have her handwriting imi-
tated, and would do it and compromise her
These statements, it is proposed to prove by
rebuttal testimony, are false in every par.

Scarcity Of Money.
Texas sinings.

leNds NHluBs.
Pete Freer is always hard up for money,
and is everlastingly trying to borrow from
his friends. Col. Andrews has got plenty
of money, but he does OF like to lend it to
Pete, for fear he would forget all about
il.
On the first Of the month, Pete met Col
Andrews, and said to him;
Can you lend me half dollar for few
minutes? ! want TO pay my land
lady,
I'm sorry, Pete, but yesterday let
George Homer have the last halfdollar
had about me, otherwise / would be proud
to lend it to you"
Next day Pete made another ATTEMPT TO
borrow half dollar from Andrews, who
said he had, on the day before, paid out
his last cent for taxes; but for that, he
would let Pete have the money in min
ute.
On the next day, Pete made another at
tempt to get that hall. dollar, but Col. An
drews said he had, on the day previous,
been paying his pew.rent, and it took the
last cent he had, otherwise, he would take
pleasure in lending Pete as much money as
hessneeded; that there was no man in
Austin whom he respected as much as
he did Pete Freer. On the succeeding day
Pete once more tackled Andrews, who re-
membered that he had, on the day before,
contributed the only half-dollar he had to
the erection Of an Alamo monument, other
wise, he..would be proud to advance Pete the
cash.
Pete began to lose hope, and, yesterday,
when he met Andrews, ON Austin avenue,
instead of asking him for the half-dollar,
he merely inquired;
~ say, Colonel, what did you do yester-
day with that half-dollar you can't lend
me to.dayT'

SOCIETY.
what fs Going On i'm the Social
world.


The last Army and Navy took place at
Marini's yesterday evening and the crush
was so great that nearly half the guests
were excluded from the german. But IL
was a most brilliant party, and assumed
quite the features of valentine german"
all sorts of dainty designs in lace, gold and
tinsel being among the favors, and pretty
verses done on tinted paper with floral de-
signs. The hall was decorated with that
good taste which seems intutive in soldiers
and sailors, the upper end being filled in
with Towering shrubs, azalea bushes,
orange and lemon trees, fern palms,
and the richly coored plants of
the Isthmus, and the doorway guarded by
variety of Natures green-clad scntries.
Baskets Of cut flowers depended from
brackets, and the favors were massod in
pyramid, where gaily.colored ribbons,
flowers and valentines contended for the
victory of color. The guests were received
by Madame Outrey, assisted by Miss West,
both of whom wore exquisite toilets, and
the german was led by the young Senior
Don Fernando Roca dc Togores, who is said
to be the most graceful dancer ever seen
among us. The toilets were unusually
elegant, and the variety of color, shoaling
from vivid carmines and cardinals,
up to apricot, and deeping from cream to
royal purple, accented here and there by
whites and blacks in satin, muslin, surah,
gauze, tulle and gros-grain, produced an
effect very satisfying to the eye. There
were but few inharmonious hues, and these
were worn by such pretty girls that the
offending gowns were forgiven. 1 think
they were aesthetic dresses, but, like Bun
thorne, II distinctly declare do not like
dirty greens and bilious yellows."
Everybody in society was there, and no
one prettier and sweeter than Mrs. Secre-
tary Lincoln. The dancing was continued
until o'clock, and even then the young

feet were 10th to conclude their evenings

Death of Joseph NIattiurly.

Mr.. Joseph Mattingly, one of the best
known residents of Washington, died at an
early hour this morning at Providence
Hospital. The deceased had been suffering
for two weeks past from typhoid pneumonia,
the disease which eliminated in his death.
Mr.. Mattingly was borne some forty
four years ago in Baltimore, but came
to Washington when quite a
youth. During the war he was
proprietor of the Powhatan House, at the
foot of Seventh street, and at the close of
the rebellion he entered the railroad bust
ness, and has been fer sixteen years con-
nected with the Baltimore & Ohio road
The deceased was widely connected in
Washington and in this section, and very
popular among all who knew him for his
amiable disposition and generous manners.
His death is universally lamented by all
who knew him,
