Cultivate Q Sweet Voice. !.

fgfOuo the jewish Me61enGer.J
There is no power of love 80 hard to
get and keep as kind voice. A kind
hand is deaf and dumb. It may be
rough in flesh and blood, yet do the
work of q soft heart, and it with soft
touch. But there is no one thing that
love 80 much needs as sweet voice to
tell what it means and feels, and it is
hard to get it and keep it in the right
tone. One must start in youth and be
on the watch night and day, at work and
plav. to get and keep q voice that shall
sneak at all times the thought of kind
heart. But this is the time when sharp
voice is most apt to be got. You often
hear boys and girls say words at play
with q quick, sharp tone, as if it were
the snap of q whip. When one of them
gets vexed you will hear voice that
sounds as if it were made up of snarl,
q whine and bark. Such voice often
speaks worse than the heart feels. It
shows more i'll will in the tone than in
the words. It is often in mirth that one
gets voice or tone that il sharp, and
It sticks to him through life, and ct irs
up ill-will and grief, and falls hike drop
Of gall on the sweet joys at home. Such
as these get sharp home voice ioE
use and keep their best voice for
those they meet elsewhere, just as they
would save their best cakes and pies tor
guests and all their sour food for their
own board. I would say to oil boysandi
girls, "Use your guests voice ct home. :
Watch it by day as 9 pearl ct great
price. for It will be more to you in the

WHAT TO EAT, AND WHEN.

When a piece of land is exhausted of
the element which is the principal in
gredient Of certain crop, that ingre-
dent must be supplied, or the crop will
fail in quantity and quality; hence the
thrifty farmer ascertains the wants of
the soil, and supplies it with the needed
manure every year. The human body
is exhausted of it's elements day by day,
and day by day must these elements be
supplied by eat and drink; but the re-
quired proportion of these elements
changes with the seasons, with the tenn
perature of the weather; and he who
eats the same in quantity and quality in
July as at Christmas will die in month,
because the adult eats for two reasons
to warm and to nourish. All food con-
tains two chief principles carbon, to
keep from freezing; nitrogen, to keep
from famishing. The proportion of
these elements varies with the food.
Those who work a great deal require a
great deal of nourishment- nitrogen,
for it is the Aesh-forming principle.
Those who are exposed great deal to
cold should eat the carbonaceous, the
heat-supplyipg food. Butter snd fat are
tbree-fourths carbon; vegetables have
but little, berries none. Hence Green
landers, in their icy homes, luxuriate in
blubber and whale-oil, while the people

FAVORABLE BRITISH CROP PROSPECTS.

A British writer publishes in Nature
some important meteorological data
which lead him to prognosticate for the
British Isles good agricultural season.
His statistics show that the winter
1882 in these islands was ch~ o.
ICED by mildness rarely o. -. 1~feeser
but twice exceeded sinc, >4ualied and
cess of mean temr~ - 1v64. The ex-
mails dnr;no ~ x>szatare above the nor
vamher % t. -..e Eve months from No
the II: = March last was nowhere in
o. >aitsd Kingdom less than two de-
<4seA while in some districts it was three
degrees and even four degrees. Since
.a' tao4 the % records q s3se only eighteen win
ters IN Which inc mean British tempera-
:ore .cICr these five months has been two
degrees or more above the normal.
From a table of the thermal data for
these exceptionally warm winters this
writer gathers that "these winters which
gave mean excess of three degrees
were Immediately followed by summers
warmer than usual" Indeed, of the
whole seventeen summers only one THAT
OF 1900 is considered as showing def
cheney Of temperature sufficiently great
and prolonged to be regarded unfavora-
bic to agriculture. And the writer fair
lyconcludes that the table affords strik-
ing general confirmation of the old
prognostic, which is widely entertained
that mild winter is the precursor of
fine, warm summer"

NEW FORESTS IN THE WEST.

Many thousands of acres in the tree
less regions of the far west are annually
planted with shoots and saplings under
the provisions of the law, passed by con-
gress few years ago, to encourage the
growth of timber. The wisdom of these
laws says the Boston Advertiser, becomes
more and more apparent as time goes
on. They promise to counterbalance the
wholesale destruction of forests in the
older sections of the country by creating
new tracts of woodland upon the vast
bare plains of the trans-Mississippi re-
gion. They appeal directly to the indi-
vidual self-interest of settlers and to the
desire for landownership which appears
to be a stronger passion in new COM
munities, where the soil is almost the
only visible property, than in places
where an old society has created many
other forms of wealth. The western
farmer who has homesteaded quarter
section of 160 acres can secure an add.
tional quarter section by planting and
caring for the growth of ten acres of
trees. If he selects his homestead tract
upon an unoccupied section he can get
800 acres in body, and if this is not
feasible he can usually find q chance for
timber entry" within q short dis
tance of his home and thus obtain Sec
ond farm to give to his sons or to sell
when the denser settlement of the region
has made it worth good price. Nor are
the benefits of the tree-culture laws lim-
tied to actual settlers. Many claims are
taken up purely for speculative purposes
by non-residents. Considerable areas
of land are thus kept out of the hands of
men who would homestead and cultivate
them, but the object of securing the
rearing of numerous patches of forest in
regions naturally bare of trees is greatly
advanced.
It is still too soon to tell whether or
not any noticeable climatic changes will
result from the creation of timber tracts
now going on in southwestern Minneso-
ia, Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas, but it
is not probable that great benefits may
accrue to those regions. When the trees
attain fair size the new forests may pre-
vent excessive droughts and destructive
freshets, and break the force of high
winds and tornadoes, AZ well as promote
a supply of fuel and lumber for future
generations. The timber r-culture laws
afford striking example Of how much
can be done to improve natural condi-
tions by wise legislation, and are les
son to the advocates of the let-alone
theory of government. Their success
full working suggests the inquiry, If the
United States can, by two simple stat
utes, cause forests to spring up on hun
dreds of thousands of bare acres in the
new west, cannot the states do some
thing by legislation to regulate and limit
the destruction of timber in the older
sections OF the country?

Mrs. GarheDd's Wealth

A Clevelander says: Mrs. Garfield
has $500, 600 in government bonds, the
result of the subscription. Then her
husbands life was insured for $50, 200,
which she promptly received. She also
was paid the salary of the President for
the unocoupied year, amounting to about
$50, 900. That makes $$400, 900, does it
not? Very well. Then add to it about
$50, 900, the total value Of Garfield's es-
tate. That was the total amount after
all the abuse that was received, that he
was able to accumulate IN life of fifty
years. I suppose that the income from
this total of more than $4OO, 900 will be
perhaps $16, 900 . year. So she is com
Portable, and can raise her children well;
but the loss Of Garfield was blow that
will leave q scar as long as she lives.

Two Dog Stories.

A guano ox-cart stopped in front of
the postoface at Dublin, Ga, and the
driver left the team in charge of q large
black dog. Presently one Of our enter
prising town COWS dragged out of the
cart bag of corn and bundle Of fod-
der. The dog flew out, took the bag
from the COW, dragged it under the cart,
went back and protected the fodder till
the driver returned. 81 - ...;4 3 .a-a
Mr.. A. Il. Harrison, Of Columbus,
Ga, has q young Newfoundland dog,
which is very sagacious, considering he
has had little or no training. Yesterday
morning q gentleman tied his horse to
one Of the posts near the sidewalk in
front Of the store. As soon as he left
the horse, the dog Rollo reared on his
hind feet and, with his teeth, united the
knot and led the horse out into the street.
The horse was brought back and tied and
the dog repeated the same thing. In the
afternoon the horse was tied in front oi
the store again and as soon as the dog
discovered him he proceeded to unite
him again and wss leading him into the
store to the proprietor, when he was
stopped. Rollo does not intend that the
riders shall hitch their horses too neal
the store door.

A Whole Family Poisoned.

Domestic difficulties in poor German family
of Chicago eliminated in horrible tragedy on
the 10th inst: Caspar Seybolt. residing at No.
81 Finnell Street, worked nights in bakery,
and on going home on the morning Of the 10th
inst, he was met at the door by bis wife, who
exclaimed: IL did it, Caspar. They are all
dead. They are all in heaven and will be
with them soon See the flowers in their hands.
How pretty they are;" and with these words
her arm relaxed, her face whitened, and she
fell upon the bed where her oldest child, Tilley.
lay in the hush Of death. The victims were
dressed in white, each with hands folded, in
which were white artificial flowers, and ribbons
in their hair. The baby's wrists were tied with
. white ribbon, and white wreath WAS on its
forehead. She was the first to be sent "heaven-
ward, ," and, to that end, was laid in her little
crib upon pillow. Beside her was Annie, the
second one who followed, similarly dressed.
On the bed in the southeast corner Of the room
was the boy, who had been placed under the
coverlets. He was dressed in white, and his
hands closed across his breast. In the other
bed, on the west eide Of the room, Matilda was
lying. Several letters written by the eldest
child to her friends show that she coolly Joined

Nevada Fish,

One of the Nevada fish stories is thus
told by the Virginia Enterprise:
''AmoDg the most peculiar and least
known fish of Nevada is the conewee,
found only in Pyramid and Winnemucca
Lskes. One of the most striking pecu-
iarities is name extending along the
back from head to tail, which renders the
creature so unsightly that 1t is always
sheared by the fisherman before being
sent to market. They swim at the sur
face of the water and in the early days
ascended the river in immense schools
that filed the river from bank to bank.
They make q great noise when thus 60
ing up the river and can be heard at a
considerable distance from the stream.
In the spring Of 1860 at the time Of the
Indian wal, they stampeded the horses
of a company Of soldiers camped on the
bank of the stream and came near caus-
ing..a panic, it being supposed that the
Piutes were charging upon the camp"

Garib0Idi.

In Hamerton's very charming book,
Round My House" giving an account
of several years. residence in the Bur-
gundy district of France, there are some
notes of conversation with one of the
captains in the army corps which Carl
baldi led to the aid of the French Re-
public against the German invasion in
1901, that illustrates the kind of sway
which the powerful personality of the
old Italian hero exerted over his follow
ers. Garibaldi had just arrived with his
command in inclement winter weather,
at the city near which Mr.. Hammerton
was living. His wretched health pre-
vented him from exercising much imme-
diate personal supervision over his
troops. he was rarely visible, and,
when he appeared, was obliged to move
about in carriage. Soldiers and off,
GERS spoke of him as "our father" and
not az the general. A captain said to
Hammerton: "We have no discipline
whatever; but it is our affection for our
father, Garibaldi, that binds us together.
It is not for the French Republic that
we came here, but for our father we
came and followed him. Look at those
men on that straw. Where will they be
in week? In the grave perhaps, or in
the hospital. Some of those fellows are
well-to-do; others have not a half penny;
the richer ones share with their poorer
brethren; but whatever may be the DIFF
ference of social station or military rank,
all the Garibaldians feel themselves
equal in the presence of their father,
and all are equally cared for and loved
by him. Yes," he continued, "there
has been no such influence exercised over
the Wills of men since Jesus of Nazareth
was followed by his disciples. There
have been other great military leaders,
but they were worldly men, and their
followers were actuated by worldly mo-
tives. But our poor, dear father, Carl
baldi, pray what has he to offer? The
liberty to follow him-the delight of
knowing we are near him, and shall see
his face occasionally, and hear the tones
of his voice calling us his children-the
pride of being his own, his chosen, who
have shared in all his perils, and have
never deserted him to the last-these are
the only rewards that the beloved father
offers, or that his devoted children care

PROGRESS OF THE IRON HORSE.

Contrary to the general impression,
even in what are supposed to be we'll in
formed circles, the present year gives
promise Of unexampled activity in the
way OF railroad building. Last years
work was so very great-between 5000
and 10, 900 miles of road being construct
ed-that many who had studied the sub
ject came to the conclusion that this
year must show falling of, even If it
were only because the extension was in
advance of any rational increase in the
public needs in this regard. The Rail-
way Age, of Chicago, has been at some
pains to get at the figures on the subject
and the results are certainly worthy Of
note. 1t appears that, for the five
months ending June l, 1882, there have
been laid 8, $50. 19 miles of track for 100
different railway lines in SO states and
territories. During the same period
last year only about l, 500 miles were re-
ported as laid, or less than 45 per cent.
of that done during the present year.
On the LIST of June last year only about
Is per cent. of the total mileage of the
year had been laid. At similar rate
for the present years work the twelve
month ought to show construction of
%, 600 miles. This estimate is hardly
fair one, however, for several reasons.
The "open " nature of the past winter
and spring have been favorable to rail-
road building, and advantage has been
taken of that circumstance to complete
work projected and begun last year, as
well as to commence new ventures. But
still, much of the old work remains to be
done, and many new enterprises have
been started. Of the 12O lines referred
to above, 81 are still in process of con-
struction. The Railway Age has since
January LIST referred to 225 companies
"either newly incorporated or in pro-
cess Of construction, in addition to the
120 already mentioned. From these
data it is believed "safe to say that there
are at least $50 lines covering, at a
moderate estimate, a total of $4,000
miles, upon which work is now either in
progress or is proposed to be commenced
during the present year." Unless some
thing extraordinary happens, the pros
poets are regarded as quite fair that the
mileage of roads built this year twill
nearly equal the remarkable record of
1884," In the track. k.laying thus far done
this year Texas heads the list with 734
miles laid for ten lines. Next comes
Colorado, with 253 miles for two lines;
then Indiana, with 212 miles for six
lines; Iowa, with 2075 miles for six
lines; Ohio, with 209.71 miles for nine
lines, etc. New York shows construc-
ton of 1879 miles for ten lines. New
Mexico is last on the list, with six miles
of track for one line.
