I'm the Neue Zurich Zeitung Prof.
Kleiner expresses the opinion that the
danger of lightning in houses over which
telephone wires are stretched is not
increased, but lessened, if the total con-
ductivity of wire is approximately
equal to that of a lightning conductor
. condition which is not always filed
under existing arrangements. It may,
however, be insured in simple man
ner, namely, by the introduction of q
special wire to conduct lightning wher-
ever the number of wires of two MILL
meters in thickness, running in the same
direction, is less than sixty, and this is
indispensable; single connections, too,
running along the houses, Prof. Kleiner
asserts, should be of greater strength
than those at present in use.

FARM AND PRESIDE.

OF all shares, pillow shares are tho
most reliable. They always turn up
something.
When frying cakes, roll and cut out
all the cakes before you begin to fry
them, then you can get that attention to
the cooking upon which success de-
ponds.
Strawberries are much more prolific
when four or five different varieties are
planted together, although each variety
may be perfect one, than if but one
perfect variety were planted alone.
"A gentleman who recently rode
through ex-senator Dorsey cattle ranch
in New Mexico, says of it: "It is forty
by sixty miles in size, and has on it 49,.
900 head of cattle and 1900 head Of
horses. The income from this place can
not be less than $4,000 for the present
season."
A good, cheap, quickly made corn
bread: Mix three large cups of corn
meal with one of wheat flour, a cup of
sour milk, two tablespoonfuls of molasses
and enough soda to remove acidity, and
little salt. Add enough sweet milk (or
water may do) to make it as soft as you
would for soft gingerbread. Mix well and
bake fifty to sixty minutes.
1t is recommended, as an important
item in sheep husbandry, ito separate
the ews whose lambs are intended for
market, and devote to them little spe-
cial care and attention. 1t will be evil
dent to every sheep farmer that this,
though it cost but trifle of either time
or food, will add many pounds and .
good fattening condition to the lambs.
A fruit tree can not bear a very
heavy crop oftener than once in two years
and in order to obtain an even bearing
tree the fruit should be thinned very freely
every year; this would secure not only
very even crops every year, but finer and
more superior fruit. Birds assist us in
this matter by picking off the blossoms.
Thinning is easily done if we obtain a
slender pole with a hook like knife at
tached, or even a Goldfish hook, by which
the extra fruit could be easily cut out.
Handsome pillow-covers,o or ''shams''
as they are sometimes called, are made
by taking, for the pair, eight hemstitched
Observation-Disclosures. Put them togeth-
er with bands of insertion of torchon,
Hamburg, or ric-rac, and trim the edge
to match. These covers will wash and
iron easily, which is great point gained,
unless one has an accomplished laund-
ress. Choose handkerchiefs of fine and
yet sufficiently heavy linen to make sure
that they will take starch well.

How to Pluck Poultry.

I have known persons on market day
to 90 out and kill twelve or fifteen fowls,
and to bring them into room where
there would be half dozen women and
boys pulling q few feathers at time,
between their thumb and forefinger, to
prevent tearing them. Now, for the
benefit of such, I will give our plan:
Hang the fowl by the feet by small
cord; then with a small knife give one
cut across the upper jaw, opposite the
corners of the mouth; after the blood has
stopped running in stream, place the
point of the knife in the groove in the
upper part of the mouth, run the blade
up into the back part of the head, which
win cause twitching of muscles. Now
is your time, for every feather yields as
if by magic, and there is no danger OF
tearing the most tender chick. Before he
attempts to flap you can have him as
bare as the day he came out of the egg.

The coolest place on the earth is at
Verkovansk, on the River Yana, 81 1-2
degrees north latitude. The lowest
mean winter temperature is 1876 deg.
below zero, Centigrade. This, then, is
the cold pole in Asia, the corresponding
pole in America being to the northwest
of the Parry Islands, and the line join
ing these two places does not pass
through the north pole itself, which is
thus in all probability outside of the line
Of greatest cold. It is noteworthy that
Verkovansk, like Yakutsk, is on the
mainland, considerable distance from
the Siberian coast, which possesses q
comparatively mild climate.

that his "Favorite Prescription" would posi-
lively cure the many diseases and weaknesses
peculiar to women, some doubted, and con-

treatment. But the mighty truth gradually
became acknowledged. Thousands Of ladies

Tony Pastor In Trouble.

Tony Pastor, of New York, who IL now with
his inimitabe variety combination, making q
tour Of the principal cities Of the Union, IL
recognized Is the leading character vocalist
and variety performer of the United States.
He owns and runs . frst-class theater on
Broadway, New York City, and has gathered
that could be obtained. The company has
just completed brilliant engagement at the
Walnut Street Theater, Philadelphia, and aft
er the present tour they will reappear in Tony
Pastors own theater in New York City. Mr..
Pastor Is the originator Of his peculiar school
Of character singing, and has made himself
Immensely popular, having realized by his
talents large fortune.
The writer of this article met Mr.. Pastor re-
Gently at the Bingham House, in Philadelphia,
and found him as genial in private as he is
amusing before the public. During our con
versation inquired as to his physical health,
and he replied that, Notwithstanding the
strain upon him in the discharge of his pro-
fessional duties, it was excellent Hshad &C.
casionally severe pains, either the result of
rheumatic attacks or colds, but any complaints
of that character never troubled him long, IS
he had found out remedy for all such annoy
ing affections. / asked him what the remedy
was, and he replied, "St. Jacobs OIL" l then
learned from Mr.. Pastor that he considered
the Great German Remedy an excellent prepa-
ration for the cure or relief Of rheumatism,
and that it was about the only thing used
among professional people for that distressing
complaint. He took bottles of it with him
whenever he went travelling, and would not be
without it, and knew that it was very popular
with number of members of his own COM
pany. A conversation held subsequently with
various members of the organization revealed
the fact that st. Jacobs Oil had been perform
ing most invaluable service for them in the
way Of curing them Of rheumatism. Nearly
every artist in the troupe used it, and was en-
thusiastic in its praise, and the writer was
really forced to the conclusion that Tony
Pastor was certainly in luck in having so valu-
able an article known and employed by his
inimitably good company Of performers, for it
enabled every one to be always in his place,
thus insuring comfort to the management and
genuine satisfaction to the public. Tony
Pastor would certainly be in trouble without
st. Jacobs Oil. At least, other managers
whose artists have been temporarily unsup-
piled, have noticed the difference between st.
Jacobs OIL in stock and st. Jacobs Oil out Of
stock-among the members Of their comps-
nies.-N T. Clipper.

As a general thing potatoes are not
planted deep enough, seven inches in
heavy and eight inches in sandy soil be-
ing about the proper depth. BY putting
the tubers down deep, they stand the

is also good plan, as it tends to keep
down weeds and preserve a moist sur

continue the growth of the crop.

Enemies Of the French.

AEong the hostile sects which the
French have now to count in North Al
RIGA is that of the Senoussi, founded
forty years ago by the Sheikh of that
name. This sect, which is now under
the leadership of his son and successor,
Ell Mehedi, has its center of action at
Djerbub, in the province of Tipoi,
and, according to q correspondent OF
the Republique Franchise, its ramifica-
tons extend all over Algeria. Djerbub,
the seat of the brotherhood. is about
three days. march to the west of Syoua.
1t is a small town, surrounded by ram
parts, and in the center is the religious
house known as the Zaouia, with the
tomb of Senoussi, to which Pilgrimages
are made from every part of North At
RIGA. Upward of four thousand people
reside in the Zacuia, at the head of
whom is Ell Mehedi, regarded by his
followers as the reformer of the Mo-
hammedan religion, whose coming the
prophets have announced for the end
of the thirteenth century of the hegira
(November II, 1882. Ell Mehedi Is q
sworn enemy of the Turks, the Bey of
Tunis, and the French, whom he would
fain sweep into the sea with the army
which he asserts will be at his command
next autumn, and he expects to found
great Arabian empire in North Africa.
