The Elabi: CT Work

Few people take to work naturally,
and work for the pleasure Of it years
Of industry are required to perfect one
in any occupation, and to form the habit
Of work. In all Industries the skiilful
and willing hand is the prscticed hand.
Domestic labor is not exceptional the
skillful worker is the habitual and prac-
ticed worker. A great many mothers
shirk the task of training their daugh-
tiers in domestic industries, hugging the
GelusiOn to their hearts that when their
daughters are obliged to get under the
burden they will soon enough learn how
to bear it easily and gracefully. As
many daughters put off the evil day OF
familiarity with housework in its
homely details thinking there's "time
enough to learn that when l have to-"
The result il when they set up house
keeping for themselves q year or two or
three or lifetime of wretched meals
wretcasdly prepared, frightful de
pendsnce on incompetent or dishonest
servants, and all the evils resulting
from dyspepsia, defective nutrition and
unnecessary waste. The habit of doing
hCusawork should be formed in early
sirlh0od Even a schoolgirl can have
certain domestic tasks assigned to her
There is a variety in the manifold tasks
of the housskeeper that furnishes just
the change required for the growing girl
and habits formed at this time Of life
are apt to be permanent. They may by
long di.use seem los, but upon occasion
they will come back fresh and strong as
ever When once a girl has learned
how to perform all the offices necessary
for her own physical health and COM
fort and for that of the household of
which she is a IN mber, she has trade
upon which she can depend for living,
for while the world stands there must
always be cooks, hambermaids, laun-
dresses, and seamstresSes, and she holds
in her own car abilities the guaranty of
food and shelter.-Er.

The California Publishing Company,
40S California Street, San Francisco,
have in press new novel by Mrs Glas-
cock, wife Of the Congressional candi-
date in the Second California District at
the late election. Commenting upon
the same, the Oakland Tribune says
"Mrs Mary GIascOck, wife Of John r.
Glascock, the well-known lawyer of this
city has written novel entitled .Dare,n
depicting certain phases of fashionable
and artistic life on this coast, and en-
bodying considerable amount of fine
character work peculiar to the Pacific
Coast. Mrs Glascock is a lady of ex-
quisits literary taste, and has done some
excellent work, the merit of which
promises we'll for her present venture.
This volume will be published by the
California Publishing Company, and
will, therefore, be wholly Californian,
both as regards its conception and
execution. 1t ought to be a success, both
literary and fnancial.'

Gladstone to his tenantry man entered
and quietly took his seat at the top of
the table among the principal guests
and close to Mr.. Gladstone himself He
proved to be crank, as shown by the
letter he presented to Mr.. Gladstone,

"Mr. Dear Satan, and was to the effect
that the writer, having just come up
from he'll, offered Mr.. Gladstone his SER

birthstone, l can give it to you cheap"
The letter was signed "Old Harry"

1t sppsars to be advisable that insur-
ers against loss by fire should look close
ly to the condition of the companies
they insure with. The New York Bm-
letin states that when it comes to close
analysis of the results reached by the
New York fire companies upon the I'M
derwriting, pure and simple, of 1881,
we find that, of the seventy-one comra-
mics, there were thirty-one whose losses
and expenses absorbed more than their
entire premium income. In some in
stances this excess on the wrong side of
the account is of serious proportions.

THE new 5-cent Garfield postage
stamp will be ready for issue on
March 1st. Dark brown has been Sc
lected as the color best calculated to
bring out the fine engraving of the
work. The 5.cent stamp is almost
entirely used for foreign cOrrespon.
deGce; and Third Assistant Postmas-
ter-General Hazen, believing that an
accurate engraving of the late Presi-
dent should be used for this purpose,
has succeeded in producing what is
pronounced to be the truest likeness Of
General Garfield and the handsomest
stamp yet issued by the Post Office
Department.

netic needles IN such Instruments. As Isl
known to every surveyor the magnetic
needle does not p oint directly north and
south. but makes ap angle of ahont 80 in
this locality with the true meridian or
north and south line, such as is intended
above. There arc only rare instances that
two needles will indicate the same direc-
tion. have known needles to vary from
one-third to one degree from each ether.
For example,; Ny compass needle varies
% 81 from meridian on my mothers
farm in Pinegrove, Twp, Clarion county,
and my Transit varies 80 30, or total of
96', almost one-half degree. If the same
direction were run by both instruments,
say north SOC east, for one mile, there
would be a difference of forty feet.
Without anything to test needle with
the surveyor has no means of knowing
how much his compass varies, and he
must "guess at it." and the result is he
does "guess work." They snould also
compare the length Of their chains with a
standard measure and correct them. You
can adjust chains but you cannot adjust
chainmen, yet this is no excuse for having
an incorrect chain. Then let a book be
kept i'm tho County Surveyors Office in
which tho variation of each needle tested
Is kept, and by a comparison of such rec
ords each surveyor can determine how
much he must turn off on his vernier to
follow the work Of another surveyor.
A good deal of vexatiou and litigation
can thus be avoided and at an expense
many times less than would conclude a
single suit over disputed lands. After
careful investigation and patient labor
and research on various bodies of lands
in this county am convinced that such
would be profitable investment for the
County Commissioners to make, and at
the same time be doing nothing more
than their duty, and also Carrying out the
Act OF 1850 requiring such line TO be es-
tablished in each county of this Common
wealth.
This is my opinion of the matter and 1
should like to hear the views of others,
and give the subject thorough discussion
through the press of the county if the edi-
tors will allow the space. Old land marks
are fast disappearing, and our lands are
becoming more and more valuable, and
greater care and better methods should be
adopted 70 insure the hest results in the
subdivisions OF the original warrants and
perpetuations of corners than has here
tofore existed. With greatest respect,
am, Truly yours,

A MERIDAN LINE.

TO the Land OaOnerS Of Forest County
After great deal of thinking upon the
above subject and having been interviewed
on the same by number of persons who
can see the necessity of such line, I,
upon their request, sena this to the press Of
the county, and request property owners
30 give the matter some consideration
before condemning the project. That all
may be clear and comprehensive to those
who are not conversant with the matter I
viii give the following explanation of
what Meridian Line is:
Passing around the globe are an infinite
number Of circles which cross each other
at the North and at the South Pole. These
circles or lines are imaginary, but are so
situated that all places located on the same
one Of these lines are exactly north or
south Of each other as the csse may be.
Such line constitutes meridian. Also
any portion of such line is likewise me-
ridian It matters not whether it is a
thousand miles or a single inch in length,
provided its direction is such that if pro-
duced it will cut the pole Of the earth, it is
meridian Now the idea is this: That steps
be taken TO establish such a line, say one
thousand 1000 feet long, on or near the
Public grounds in Tionesta Borough, or
such other suitable place as may be here.
after determined, and the termini well
marked by substantial stone monuments,
well planted so as not TO be moved by post
or accident or carelessness. Such line TO
be used for the following purpose with the
reasons therefor hereunto appended.
That some time during the month OF
April of each y ear, as may be fixed by the
County Commissioners, all the surveyors
IN the county assemble with their various
compasses, chains, and surveying instru-
ments Of various kinds, Transita, Theodo-
lites &C., as they may possess, and test

ing Democrat support, with reference
10 future political developments, is the
silliest effort yet made to break the
prestige Of the Maine statesman. No
other Republicans is so strong with his
own party as Mr.. Blaine, and none
therefore has less occasion than he to
look for support outside it's ranks.
More than that, no Republican knows
better than he that alliance with the
Democratic party means the sharing
Of the death-damp which has fallen
upon that organization.

Continued from Sixth Page

posed establishment OF wheat call in San
Francisco is also movement in the same
direction. 1t is proposed, of course, simply
as a measure to make San Francisco great
wheat market, and concentrate there the
entire export trade of the Pacific coast.
r shipments of wheat from the Pacific
hoast have been large for many years,
but most noticeably so in 1881, During
eleven months of that year, 4i6 vessels
laden with cargoes of wheat and -four sailed
from San Francisco alone. In November
the shipments amounted to 2,S0000 centals
or $1,000 bu. But there are many vessels
loaded at other ports along the coast, and it
IS rot thought absolutely necessary for a
vessel to go to San Francisco in order to get
Il cargo. BY establishing the call it is
believed that the trade of the coast can be
concentrated at San Francisco. Then it has
been lately proposed to ship wheat from the
coast to New Orleans, for shipment there,
and thCre are other movements in progress
tending TO divert the large aud increasing
wheat interests of the coast from San Fran
cisco, and these can, it is believed, be coun-
teracted by the establishment of call, ,
and the consequent grading of the wheat. "
In Chicago March wheat opened at $l,2lf
ard closed at 81 POI four cents above yester-
day. Corn on first call sold at 56s, and the
final sales were at 5Si, three and half
cents above the day before.

The cattle, what few are coming to the
city, are not above medium grade. Corn
has commanded such prices as will hardly
justify feeding stock for butchering pur-
poses, and but few fat, smooth, corn.ted cat
Tie are in the country, Should we have
warm weather for few weeks, we may ex-
pect any number of good CRASHED animals
Tor the mild winter has been favorable to
stock generally, and they are in better con-
dition now than they have been for years
on the opening of spring, Mutton sheep
have entirely ceased offerings on the market,
and not until after shearing time will they
begin again to arrive. Hogs continue scarce

A large pasture company is being organ
lied in this state the pasture to comprise
100000 acres and to be situated in the north
ern portion of Cameron county. 1t will be
stocked with cattle and horses, and breed
ing fine stock will be largely carried on.
With reference to the importation of
cattle for stock purposes from the United
| States says an Ottawa dispatch, mo
definite action has been taken, but it is un-
derstood chat the imperial government has
consented not to disturb existing relations
as regards Canadian cattle exported to
/ England in the event of an order in council
/ being passed by the Dominion government
admitting American cattle for stock pur-
poses. Ofcourse there viii be certain ports
of entry at which the cattle so imported
( will have to undergo a rigid inspection"
a writer i'll the Prairie Farmer states
that "in northern Texas many old timers
have realized more money value from this
years crop and pasturagc than from any
seasons herctolore-lirst, because prices
OF what little they had to sell were excep-
tionally high and remuncrative; second, be-
cause the pasture furnished during the last
three months has been worth at least So
per acre. The great demand for Texas
yearlings and 2-year-old cattle from Kansas
has advanced the price of cattle wonderfully
in the last month, They are now selling
at IS and So, while few months since
tI.Sy only brought SO and 81 each. Proba
bly, many OF your Kansas readers expect tC
purchase in the spring Texas yearlings; il
they do they may calculate on going dowi
into their pockets sharply.
