Ugliness as a Peaeemaker.

A writer in the New York Ledger tells
a good story about the duelists who
were made friends by their homely
faces:
Monsieur de Langerie and M. de
Montande were both noted for their
ugliness of face. From some cause, De
Montande challenged the other to fight
a duel. which challenge was promptly
accepted; time and place appointed,
and weapons named.
Arrived upon the grounds, and ready
for the combat, swords had been the
weapons chosen,-M. de Langerie had
looked sharply into his antagonists s
face, and started back pace, at the
same time dropping the point of his
sword.
''Upon my honor. monsieur. L cannot
fight with your
How cried the other, in amaze
ment. Not fight! Are you in earnest?"
Il am. l cannot fight you"
You insult me anew, monsieur. You
have accepted my challenge, and now
you refuse me satisfaction"
No, Twill not refuse you satisfaction.
l would rather ask your pardon than
fight you"
''But, monsieur, what meausit? Why
are YOU unwilling to fight me?''
s'Ah! you will be offended if [ tell
you.'
Il will not I swear it!''
well, then, the reason is this: l be-
lieve l am by far the better swordsman
of the two; and if we fight, goa viii be
killed; and do you not see-that will
leave me ugliest-looking man in the
kingdomf'
De Montande appreciated the point,
and burst into hearty laugh; where
upon they shook hands and remained
fast friends ever after.

CANAL CEssION.

The Dixon San in speaking of the Iii
nois and Michigan canal says:
The proposition to cede, this fall by
popular vote, the Illinois and Michigan
canal to the general government, is one of
unusual importance. 1t is a question in
which the state has everything to gain and
nothing to lose, for the conditions of the
cession are that the United States is to en-
large, improve, and forever maintain the
same as free national water highway,
otherwise the canal remains under the con-
troll of the state, which under the present
constitution it is unable to enlarge. To
accomplish this improvement the whole
people, and not party, is interested, not
only Illinois and few of the Northwestern
States. but remotely the entire Union, for
when the connection between the lakes
and the Mississippi river is perfected and
completed we will have one of the finest
and most extensive systems of inland water
navigation of the globe.

He 0verdid It.

So much can be heard every day
about cranks and insanity in general,
that little incident that occurred in
Franklin may prove interesting. A
huge, brawny Irishman met another
man on the street and by chance they
jostled each other. The Irishman turn
ed, and knocking the other man down,
beat and kicked him until he was al
most dead. He was arrested and thrown
into the lookup. The next morning he
appeared before Alderman Bunce. He
employed as his counsel one of the old
est attorneys at the bar, Scotchman
by birth. The attorney heard his ac-
count of the affray and saw there was
no chance to save his client by the us
ual methods. He disliked to lose case
above all things Leaning across the
table, he whispered to the Irishman,-
There is only one chance to clear
you; play that you are insane"
The Irishman, glad to escape, no
sooner heard it than he put it into prac-
tice. Up he jumped, and with the yell
OF demon sprang into the centre of
the room. With kick he sent the stove
flying into the corner of the room.
Down came the pipe and SCOT on the
usual court loafers; chairs flew, lamps
were thrown from their brackets and
pandemonium reigned supreme. Above
all the din and uproar. however. could
be heard the bewailing voice of the old
lawyer, crying,
..Ah, you have overdone it, my friend,
you have overdone it,
And such proved to be the case. He
was convicted and sentenced for dual
crime afterward.

Salt for Wheat Fields.

Salt is used as a fertilizer, and
usually with beneficial effect on
crops. 1t is known, however, that q
too liberal application of it will de-
stroy vegetation. 1t is applied some
times on the growing crop in spring,
but usually on the field and worked
into the soil previous to seeding. A
much larger quantity may be used
when worked into the soil than
when applied directly to the crop;
800 or 400 pounds per acre may be
sown broadcast on the crop, though
one barrel of $50 pounds is about the
usual quantity used; and three or
four times that quantity may be
worked into the soil with safety.
Used in this way it is beneficial in
destroying insects and worms in the
soil, as well as to promote growth
and early maturity of the crop. 1t
is not claimed that salt is a direct
fertilizer, for sodium is never
found to be an element of plant
food to any great extent in the
cereal crops, but a mechanical effect
is somehow produced which is bene-
ftial to vegetation to a limited ex-
tent. Last season n of my neigh
bors used over four tons of salt on
thirty acres of wheat land, worked
into the soil before seeding, for
which he thinks the crop was much
improved; the yield was over thirty
bushels per acre of superior quality
of wheat. The straw Of grain when
treated with salt is usually brighter
and cleaner of rust or fungi than
elsewhere, which would seem to
show a more healthy condition of
the plant.-EG.

Useful Hints.

Sal volatile or haTtshorn will gen
orally restore color taken out by
acids.
Best cure for Germs: Have your
boots or shoes to fit your feet instead
Of making your feet fit the boots or
shoes.
China when very dirty, a be
cleaned with finely powdered fuller's
earth dissolved in warm water and
rinsed well in cold water.
1t is not we'll to have a wet I'M
brella opened out to dry, as the
stretchers are apt to warp in the
bent form, so giving an unsightly
appearance when the umbrella is
closed. The silk should be left to.
drain, and then gently wiped with
an old silk handkerchief.
Various articles and instruments
made of rubber are apt, with time to
become dry, crack, grow brittle and
lose their elasticity. DIR. Pol recon-
mends the following simple mixture:
Water of Ammonia, one part; water,
two parts; in which the articles
should be immersed for "A length of
time varying from a few minutes to
one-half an hour to one hour, until
they resume their former elasticity,
smoothness and softness.
In dwelling houses lighted by gas,
the frequent renewal of the air is OF
the greatest Importance. A single
gas burner will consume more oxy-
gen and produce more carbonic acid
to detoriate the atmosphere of a
room than six or eight candles. II,
therefore, when several burners are
used, no provision is made for the
escape of corrupted air and for the
introduction of pure air from with
out, the health will necessarily
suffer.

There are many reasons why
you can stock your farm more
cheapIy with sheep than any 9TH
er animals Less money will be
needed for shelter and fencing.
They will utilize every thing
which grows on II farm, and. with
the exception OF hogs, the returns
will come in sooner and oftener
than with any farm stock. If
your land is poor and needs en-
riching sheep will thrive where
co @s would need much extra feed,
and at the same time they will be
making the land better. Do not
invest in poor stock. Better have
a few good grades than a flock of
poor, scrubby animals.

DON'T LET THE Cows Go Dry.
A long season Of milk Is abso-

dairyman needs more exhortation
upon than that of giving a full ra-
tion to his herd at all times during
the milking season.
There Is less excuse for feeding

any credit; she makes promptly
daily payments; and her product

Judgment as well as humanity,
require him to furnish her good
rations at all times, without regard
TO u favorable or an unfavorable
