The storm of Sunday and Monday,
did bnt little, ii any damage to the
crops. The farmers whom we meet
on our streets, look happy and con-
Vented, and their only question is,
''what is wheat going to open at!'
Well, probably 1T from 80 to 80 cents.
but we think it will be Il dollar before
the season is over. TO be sure the
crop is immense, but the granarys of
the world are empty, and the war in
Egypt will also have some effect upon
the price.

) Womanly Economy.

The re is much talk of the extrava-
gance of woman, and there IS no
doubt that when a woman puts her
hand to the spending of money she
can do 1t with u perfect lo,eeness.
Women are naturally extremists, and
do whatever they think with all
their might. But to this question OF
spending money there are two sides,
and the balance decidedly inclines TO
ward saving rather than spending.
Women are naturally economists.
They have twice the skill of saving
that men have. Think OF the "auld
clothes made to look amaist az well rs
new,n think of the old bennets re
trimmed and brought out in the latest
style; think of the twisting and turn
ing, the contriving and saving to
which many a woman resorts to keep
her family looking respectable, while
her husband never thinks of stinting
himself in cigars or liquor. Many q
man is kept from pauperism by the
contrivings of his wife; many a fam
iIy yves the comfortable house they
inhabit more to the economy of the
mother than the savings ofthe father
Before men talk of the extravaganza
Of a woman, they should strive te
learn q lesson from their economy.

How to Train a Child Mentally.

Children think much more deeply
than we imagine: we should there
fore answer their questions to the best
of our ability, unless evidently asked
in a spirit of frivolity, and try to ex'
plain to them reasons for things they
see occur ring around them, and for
the acts you yourself perform. But
gain their confidence in every way in
your power. A mother should be
more of q mother than a teacher, or
rather she ought to be both combined.
You like to see your boy clever, doubt
less, but do not make q show child of
him. Do not even let him know you
think him clever, and discourage all
pertness In conversation, for this too
often borders on impertinence. Never
permit him to contradict you. If he
contradicts his mother may he not,
when old enough to go out, be guilty
at table of very great rudeness? At
the same time, mother should never
de erve contradiction. When you
have o,casion to repiove, beware of
doing SO angrily. 1t is far better to
speak gently aud make the child feel
ashamed of himself, because shame
breeds sorrow and contrition, and
this in its turn, the desire to behave
far better In the time to come.

Rules for Spelling Children.

Try to forget as much as possible
that you were young yourself.
When they amuse thems elves tor
turing animals, look on and laugh.
Always tell them to hit back when
annoyed by neighboring children.
Tell them all the lies you like, and
half kill them If they tell you one.
When they tell you they won't do a
thing, laugh at chem and let it go.
When they fall and hurt themselves
scold them for their awkwardness.
Dress them in style that they will
be afraid to play for fear of spelling
their clothes.
Make religion such a long-faced,
poky thing, that they'll hate the
name of it as long as THEY live.
Don't give them anything to read
but bible stories, Sabbath-schooi books
and dime novels.
Don t give them the habit of kissing
them goodnight; if you happen to
die they'd be awfully lonely without
it.
Tell them it is n sin to be dishonest,
but if they bring you back too much
change from the grocer's, keep it and
tell them to say nothing about 1t.
Let them sleep until you have start,
ed to work in the morning, and have
them put TO bed before you get home
at night, to avoid becoming too init.
mately acquainted with them.
Threatened to tell their father and
get them punished for every blessed
thing they do,so that by degrees they'll
come to the conclusion that a father il
some sort OF a whipping machine.
Tell them it is a sin TO laugh o. play
ON Sunday, and make the day as dull
and stupid as possible for them. Their
when they grow up and go to Congress
| they will be apt to pass a bill doing
way with the observance of the day
altogether.
II you happen to be in a gruff mood
and feel a little palm trying to nestle
In yours, or a little arm trying Il
I Irvine itself around your neck, give I
growl to be let alone. The offens'

Dirt and Disease.

DIR. Franklin Staples, of Winona,
Mimi, who has been carefully
studying the characteristics Of that
fatal malsdy, diphtheria, classes it as
undoubtedly contagious and infectious.
He thinks that the strictest sanitary
regulations, rigidly enforced, are the
only means adequate to prevent its
spread in communities where it has
made its appearance. Filth, whether
from dirty rooms, soiled clothing,
defective drains and cesspools, ill.ven-
tilated rooms, poisonous, inodorous
gases, ETC., he regards as conditions
which invite the disease. Tho guard
against contamination 1t Is necessary
"that the apartments set apart for
the patient should be Invested of all
furniture, carpets, curtains and fabrics
of any kind not absolutely required /;
that discharges from the nose, mouth
and bowels should be carefully col
lected and destroyed. and that all per-
sonal clothing, bed linen, ETC.,
should be thoroughly disinfected be-
fore being sent to the general wash.
In case Of death, all clothing and
unimportsnt articles should be burnt,
the body should be Immediately dis
infected and put into its coffin, which
should be kept permanently closed.
There should be no public funeral"
He suggests chlorine gas and thor
ough ventilation to disinfect the
rooms, and says that nothing short
of these precautions will avail to pre-
vent the spread of the Infection.

Driving a Hen.

One of the minor differences between
man and woman, which illustrates the
difference between tact and force, Is
brought out In the folio wing descrip-
ton of hen driving
When q woman has a hen to drive
into the coop, she takes hold of her
skirts with both hands, shakes them
quietly to the delinquent, and says,
"Shoo, therel"
The hen takes one look at the object
to convince herself that it Is a woman,
and then stalks msjestically into the
coop.
A man doesn't do that way. He goes
cut doors and says, at Is singular mo-
body can drive q hen but me-" and
picking up a stick Of wood, hurls it at
the offending biped and observes, "Get
in there, you thief"
The hen Immediately loses her reason
and dashes to the other end of the yard.
The man straightway dashes after her.
She M back with her head down,
her wings out, and followed by an as
sortment of stovewood, fruit-cans and
clinkers, and a very mad man in the
rear.
Then she skins under the barn, and
over a fence or two, and around the
house, and back TO the coop, and all
the while talking as only an excited
hen can talk, and all the while fol-
lowed by things convenient for hand
ling, and a nan whose coat is on the
saw. buck, and whose hat is on the
ground, Precipitation has no limit.
BY this time the other hens have
come out to take a hand in the debate
and help dodge missiles, and the man
says every hen on the place shall be
sold In the morning, and puts on his
things and goes down the street, and
the woman has every n of those
hens housed and counted in two min
utes.

Flowers IN Mexico.

Mexico is the greatest flower market
in the world. ALI the year round the
gardens bring t nth brilliant blossoms,
the fragile, beautiful children Of this
tropic zone. All istorians who write
of the Mexieans as Mexicans, speak OF
their love of flowers 8 one of their
principal characteristics. Nor Is this
trait diminished in the present genera.
tion. From the days before the cruel
Conquest. all through that merciless
time, when the Mexieans bore the
heavy yoke under their violent mas
tiers, the Spaniards, they renamed
faithful TO their love of flowers; the
passion is innate.
During even the coolest days that
are known in this mild climate one
may go to market AMI fnd the simple
Indigo seated on the sidewalks with
their baskets of flowers I have seen
them sitting thus closely together for
q whole block, offering at almost
ridiculously low prices great bundles
of roses, heliotropes, v~iolets, gerani
ums, heartsease, plnks, and, in short,
almost numberless varieties. For
twenty-five cents one may nearly al
ways buy q large, elegantly arranged
boquet, composed of the most exquisite
flowers, the price of which, in New
York, would vary, according to the
season, from So toss or S. In the full
flower season one may often buy for
six and a quarter cents as many flow
ers as can be disposed of in a parlor of
ordinary size.

How Light Affects the Bind.

An interesting account has been
lately furnished by M. Plateau, the
eminent Belgian physicist (who has
been blind nearly forty years. Of the
sensations he experiences in his eyes.

Stirring Ones Risibles


A philosopher says: 1.-THE mai
who laughs is the sympathetic man.
1t is astonishing how many sympa
thizers a man has when he falls dowr
and hurts himself.
A Scotchman, having a warm dis
pute with q London cabmau abou
his fare said "I'd have We ken / an
a Macintosh" To which the Cock
ney replied : you may be- hum
brellsr for all ] knows, but my fare il
eighteenpence."
A young man with ali umbrellf
overlook an unprotected lazy acquain'
lance in q rainsterm, and, extending
his umbrellas over her, requested the
pleasure of acting as her rainbeau.
"Oh!n exclaimed the young lady,
taking his arm lyon wish me to be
your raindear.n
~ only want to show you II thing
more, professor ! have invented a
short way of boring mountains, which
1 think will prove valuable" my
deSr sir" burst forth the wearied lis
tener, eff you would only invent a
short method of boring individuals,
you would confer a lasting benefit
upon the race"
Al Irish ostler was sent to the stable
to bring forth q travellers horse. Not
knowing which of the two strange
horses in the stable belonged to the
traveller, and wishing to avoid the
appearance of ignorance in his bust
ness, he saddled both animals, and
brought them to the door. The trav-
eler pointed out his w horse, say
ing: THAT'S my nag" Certainly
yer honor, I know that very well |;
but didn't know which was the other
gintleman's."
"These rubber garments are such a
blessing" remarked a fat man as he
brought into a street car a perfect del
uge of water. The lady at his right,
who mopped nj side of his coat with
costly dress, agreed with him perfectly;
tie nan at his left, who caught about
a pint of the drippings in his shoe,
could scarcely conceal his admiration
while the young miss to whom the fat
man CALAMITY offered his seat a few
minutes later went into perfect costa
sizes as she sat down in q pool of water.
Sheridan was once dining with
Peter Moore, when q servant, in pass
ing between Sheridan and the fire,
knocked down the plate-warmer with

Professor Morley's Predictions.

Prophesyipg the Appearance of an Intel
lectual Genius.
l have just heard of a remarkable
prediction made by a remarkable
man. The man is Professor Henry
Morley, perhaps the most thorough
explorer of literary history, and his
prophesy is that a great intellectual
figure will arise in the near future.
If u astronomers were to pre- die
thai a new planet would probably be
discovered in a certain region of space
the telescopes of the world would be
turned in that direction there is no
reason why we should not heed as
well the prediction of a man who has
so long studied literary epochs. Pro-
lessor Morley bases his calculation, I
believe, upon the fact that a certain
average of poEulor culture and a Ger
tain proportion of literary regulations
hive never failed to be represented by
some mind of extraordinary power,
and that average and proportion have
now been reached or exceeded. The
Professor is a solid and rather I'M
imaginative man ; but there is a touch
of characterization about this idea
of his. Such a hope were a true star
amid the darkness closing round the
graves of the men who made our
epoch-Carlyle, Darwin and Emer-
son. Just as so many are asking who
is left to look up to, here is something
to raise all bowed heads, and direct re-
retrospecting eyes for fine representa-
tive of a larger age must be a larger
genius than any predecessor. 1t is
said that prophecies tend to fulfil
themselves. 1t may be that the
dreams of generations of Madonnas
lowered in the man of Nazareth.
Heine believed that the beauty and
dignity of the Italians were largely
owing to the general worship of pic
tured saints. What q beautiful COM
petition it would be for the Madonnas
of America and England, turning
from the graves of great teachers who

would be the resultifth the result should
be that the English race in both
worlds, led by the SAME ideal, should
bring forth again majestic minds, re-
lated to each other as the Old World
to the New. like those they jointly
lost and followed In continuous pro-
cession to their graves.

Elephants and Their Teeth.

Empress, the female elephant at the
Geological Garden, 81. Louis, has just
passed through one of the interesting
changes looked for In her species in
about her age, in the shedding OF her
back, or, as they are called, milk"
teeth Recently, Empress appeared a
little dull snd seemed to have lost her
appetite. Secretary Kalb had her
watched closely, but could not deter
mine what was the matter, until there
appeared the crowns of several teeth.
These crowns were about three inches
long and one-half wide and an inch
thick, and made the cause Of her indis-
position clear. An examination Of
her mouth corroborated the same
thing, the ''milkersn having disap-
peared. Within an hour Empress
began to regain her wonted good
health and soon made known that she
was longing for something to eat.
This loss of her early molars Is said 10
occur at the age of ten years.

A Fable of the PERIOD

A treasurer once went to one of his
bondsmen and said, while the tears
stood in his eyes:
"You have always been a good
friend to me. and I have not stolen a
cent. What will my neighbors think?
The bondsman replied This is a
serious case, but perhaps II you run
away with somebody's wife between
now and next week, your reputation
Is an o~fficeholder may be frightened
up a little"
In a few days there was a great
scandal in the papers, and people
said !:
"This man Is not so bad as we pre-
sumed. or course he failed to steal
any Of our money, but he has broken
up a family, which is better than
nothing. In time he may make a
good oficeholder."
