CoLoRED PREACHERS.

Our word for it that, when the
colored preachers shsil combine, as
they ought, to preach to their peo-
pie the true equality and justice of
the laws and urge continuously upon
them the sin and danger of their
transgression 10 the slightest partic,
ulars, there will soon be noticeable a
marked Improvement of morals in
the race and a decrease In their
criminal quota If the preachers of
the race will literally interlard their
discourses on the horrors of hell
with descriptions of the moral degra
dstion of crime and the sufferings
and disgrace of penitentiary punish
ment they will find early and graft
flying results follow. AS it is, too
frequently they psnder to the ilI>
founded prejudiceS of their race and
inveigh violently against the law,
the courts and the prisons as devices
of the white people to wreak some
vague sort of vengeance on the col
ored race. Let them stop such ab-
surdities, and get down to the prac-
teal work of improving the morals
of their people. IN that way can
they best prepare their souls for the
greater saIvatiou.- At. Herald.

The trouble is, none OF our young

make good and useful wifes, mas
much as ladies preside over the de-
psrtments of their household and see
that everything is kept clean, and
the food is well cooked {; so also IN
the lower classes mothers teach their
daughters to do the same tor them

dignity in the doing of it.

One of the greatest hindrances

from the false basis upon which so

The Buffalo Express stated that ga
squirrel is up tree and man on the
ground with gun is trying to shoot
it; but the squirrel persists in keep
iug on the opposite side of the tree
from the man. The man walks clear
round the tree to the place of start
ing, the squirrel going about in the
same direction and keeping the tree
between itself and the man. Now
the problem, is: Has the man been
around the sluirrelr He has been
around the tree with the squirrel on
it, but has he beer around the squir-
rel?

this problem, and received 81, of
which Is say yes, the man does go
around the squirrel, and IL say no,
he does not. A few have sent in their
reasons, and two send figures demon
strating the problem. The following
answers are printed: OF course the
man goes around the squirrel He
goes around the tree and everything
on it. Should the squirrel have the
start, am of the opinion that the
man goes around it. Not by a darn
sight does the hunter walk around

and had l got around the squirrel !
would have shot it. II there was no

Gle should say the man went around
the squirrel. But when you put a
tree there it is different. The man
does not go around the squirrel on
the tree. The man doesn't 60 around
the squirrel any more than the squir-
rel goes around the man. OF course
the man doesn't go around the squir-

Calls on Horses.

Sore backs and sore shoulders cause
great suffering among large numbers OF
horses and mules, and the owners of
these animals should everywhere 3e ia
miliar with the proper remedies for
these evils. Most saddle sores may be
cured by a clean, soft saddle blanket,
padded so ss to take the bearing of the
saddle entirely off the sores, the back to
be washed clean daily with soap and wa
ter. A neighbor of ours, who has mad
much to do with plantation mules and
horses, and who is veterinary authority
in the neighborhood. says he has cured
the worst of sore backs with coal oil ,
keeping the sore clean, and applying the
remedy several times daily. Calomel
sometimes cures the worst of these
sores. We know several persons who
have great faith in old leather. The sole
Of an old shoe, burned to crisp, pull
verized and sifted, and mixed with calo-
mel, and applied to the sore. Others
have known such sores to ne cured with
shoe coal dust alone. Collars that injure
work horses and mules should be scraped
clean with knife, washed in soap and
water, and protected by padding so that
the bearing will be above and below the
sore. Washing the shoulders in cool
water will prevent sore shoulders if the
collar fits we'll. It is cruel to compel a
work animal to wear collar that is bad
fit; and that tortures the animal all the
time it is at work. These are general and
simple remedies in the reach of all; for
obstinate sores that will not yield to
common remedies good book on farm
ing will be consulted or a veterinary
surgeon.

After Marriage.

One frequent cause of trouble in mar
ried life is want of o. enness in business
matters. A husband marries a pretty
thoughtless girl, who has been used to
taking no more thought as to how she
should be clothed than the lilies Of the
field. He begins by not liking to refuse
anv Of her requests. He will not hint,
so long as he can help it, at care in trifl-
ing expenses-he does not like to asso-
ciate himself in her mind with disapoint-
ments and self-denials. And she, who
would have been willing enough, in the
sweet eagerness to please of her girlish
love, to give up any whims or fancies OF
her own whatever. falls into habits OF
careless extravaganza, and feels herself
injured when, at last a remOnstrance
comes. How much wiser would have
been perfect openness in the beginning!
eve have Just so much money to spend
this lsummer. Now, shall we arrange
matters thus or thus? was the question |
heard very young husband ask bis still
younger bride, not long ago; and ali the
womanhood in her answered to this de-
mand upon it, and her help at planning
and couns( ing proved not thing to be
despised, though hitherto she had "fed
upon roses, ard lain among the lilies OF
life' am speaking not of marriages
that are no marriages-where Venus has
welded Vulcan, because Vulcan pros
pered at his forge-but marriages where
two true hearts have set out together,
for loves sake, to learn the lessons OF
life, and to live together until death shall
part them. And one of the first lessons
for them to learn is to trust each other
entirely. The most frivolous girl of all
"the rosebud garden OF girls" if she tru-
ly loves, acquires something of woman]i.
ness from her love, and is ready to plan
and help 4nd make her small sacrifices
for the general good. Try her, and you
will see.
