The Hand as an Index.

NJ, Alexandra Dumas is preparing an i'm
portant work treating of the science Of CHR
omancy. in which he is an ardent believer.
According to him the hand is the indication
of the character; past, present and future are
written in the lines of the palm. When
Lambert, who was organizing his polar ex-
pedition, called on NJ. de Sauley and told
him that everything was ready, and that he
was starting under auspices which guaranteed
his success, he met Desbarolles, who told NJ.
de Sauley. when Lambert had gone, that the
expedition would prove q failure. Des-
barolles was laughed at, but before the en-
thusiastic Lambert could start, the war
broke out, and he joined a free corps
to meet his fate-a Prussian bullet
under the walls of Paris.
In 1760, when the empire was at its zenith,
the same man read in the hand of the en-
press the catastrophes which were to befall
her after so much happiness. He saw the
reverse of the medal, and grief checked his
utterance. He could not tell what he had
seen, but the empress told him when she was
quite child girana had read her fate,
predicting her marriage to an emperor, her
splendor and then her fall, with q long period
of suffering. and then the scaffold. Desba-
ROLES admitted that much Of what had been
predicted would be fulfilled, but that the
lines of the palm denied that the lady would
meet the same fate as Marie Antsinette, al
though her life would probably be ended in
exile.

Senator Brown will make tender in few

Emperor William has for nearly fifty years

his death she took charge of his estate, and
has managed it with great success ever since.
During the war Miss Carroll prepared a
plan for the conduct of the Western armies,
which was afterwards substantially adopted
in the march to the sea. She died in the
same house occupied by her father, in which
she has always lived.
The Congregationalist says Of the recently

divines like Rufus Anderson, Calvin 4.
Stowe, Samuel Harris, Cryus Hamlin and
Henry B. Smith; or Of authors like Jacob

Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry w. Long
fellow. While the institution looks over her
list of men now still hard at work, like Drs.
Field, Fiske, Magoun, Means, Parker,
Prentiss, Smyth and Webb, she may con-
gratulate herself that her influence is by no
means wholly thing of the past, or her re-
nown mainly in the men whose names are
starred upon her list"

A very successful protection against
mice, adopted by successful fruit grower,
consists of taking sections of worn-out
and damaged stove-pipe. and. after open
ing section at the seam, clasping it
around the tree and settling it in the
ground. When this has been once properly
done it win last for several years and is
perhaps the safest protection that can be
adopted. Pieces of old tin can be used in
the same manner; but usually damaged
stove-pipe can be procured, and if used in
this way it will he found much better than
throwing it way. 1t is a perfect protec-
ton, for the reason that mice never attack
trees while they can procure other food
and when they cannot the ground is frozen
so that they cannot burrow under the pipe
and they never attempt to go over it.
lfthere are many varieties of the same
vegetable in a garden, it is impossible to
save the seeds of some in an unmixed
state. Sweet corn. and all of the squash
family, are quite sure to mix" On the
other hand, peas and beans rarely cross.
If one saves seeds Of any vegetables, let
it be of the best. Instead of leaving the
last peas on the vines for seed, set apart
portion of row for seed. and let none
be picked from it. BY proper care, the
quality of a vegetable may be improved.
In saving Lima beans, we have for several
years selected only those with four beans
in the pod; rs consequence, the greater
number of pods in the whole crop now
have four beans. The selection of the first
ripened and best formed tomatoes for seed
will have a marked effect upon future
crops, and this is the case with all other
vegetables. If one has melon he would
preserve in its purity, the surest method
is to preserve few female flowers. Take
male flower of the same kind that is
shedding its pollen, remove the corolla,
to expose the stamens. Select female
flower that is just ready to open, but has
not been visited by insects; open it and
apply the stamens to the pistil of that
flower. Cover the flowers thus operated
upon bv bit of muslin until the fruit be-
gins to grow.

GOOD ADVICE FROM A LEADING
MEDICAL PROFESSOR.

A learned doctor says: Keep some kind
of a tonic medicine always in the
house, and if anyone feels unwell, make
free use of it. But first be sure that it lis
both harmless as we'll as m%eritorious. Put
no trust in alcoholic preparations, their
use will lead to intemperance; neither be
partial to any remedy that produces a Sc
we're cathartic effect, for prostration of the
nervous system and digestive organs is
sure to follow. The mildest and best med
icine ever invented for strengthening every
part of the body and restoring impaired
or lost organic functions to their normal
condition, and one which is having an IN
paralleled and rapidly increasing sale in
the Eastern States is Browns Iron Bitters.
Any druggist will procure it for you if you
request them to do so,especial!y when they
find you cannot be persuaded to take some
substitute. 1t does not ccssain alcohol,
and is the only preparation of iron that
cures headache and does not blacken the
teeth. 1t IS q sure r~erirer, q true strengthen
er. and the best medicine ever invented for
permanently strengthening the pulmonary.
urinary and digestive organs, and prevent
ing consumption, kidney diseases and
chronic dyspepsia, often curing these dis
eases when all other remedies have failed,
for it is truly natures best a~ssistant.-Ga-
