ONE LITTLE SEED. Many days have
passed since that little incident, but its
lesson is one which trust | have never
forgotten.
| was crossing the ocean aboard the
good cid ship Antoinette Boy like,
made friends with the several officers of
my pleasure was to listen to their tales of
the sea. What wonderful stories they had
10 tell of queer cities and strange people,
of storms and calms, of dangers through
which they had passed, and then, too, of
their happy homes far away, and their
longing tob be once more surrounded by their
families. What an eager listener was .
And many and many Time have |, with
one or the other of them, laid stretched
out on the deck, gazing upwards, shaping
into familiar pictures the fantastic clouds
that hoated overhead while the splashlng
of the waters on either side sounded soft
and pleasing to my dreaming brain.
One day the first officer had Just come
off watch, and as he stepped into his
cabin he found me already there. l chat
ted while, and finally, ia rummaglng
through his chest, fell upon some old
time daguerreotypes. This was his son.
that his daughter, and here was picture
ola woman of already malurer years.
Eager to display, l presume, my famil-
larity with the world-and how much our
younger generation is addicted thereto-I
at once exclaimed: "And that's the old
woman suppose"
l saw at once my mistake, A cloud
spread over the sun Drowned face; but
soon it passed away, and rough. rugged
hand was softly laid upon my shoulder,
while voice almost distressing to me, it
was so gentle, said: "My little friend, that
is my wife, the mother of my children; of
course you meant nothing, but let an old
sailor tell you, never speak but in the
gentlest words of those whom men should
honor. A woman in my eye is holy
thing; remember my advice.'
All the rest of that day l felt like one
who had donea wrong, but afterwards the
sun seemed brighter and the air fresher
than ever. Perhaps the little seed that
rough old "sluermann" had sown fast
fowered into beauty.

DEGENERATE FARM HANDs.-"The
bel p we get now Il days don't amount to
snucks Time was when the help you
hired in hayng time could do a decent
days work, but this year they're worse'n
ever"
Old Farmer Smith was getting in hay at
his farm in Il suburban town, and had Two
or three men at work with him. A city
friend had called around 10 see him, and
although the conversation was directed to
the city gentleman, the workmen did not
fail 10 hear it
Dsregarding their presence, the old
man continued: Tell you what it is
old as | am | can pack more hay on to
wagln than any two men Of the present
day can fork up"
Suppose you try it old man." sugges.
ted one of the men, at the same time
tipping the wink TO his mate on the oppo.
site side to 'sock it" to the old man
The old fellow needed no second invita-
ton. With bound he mounted the cart
and was slowing away the hay at
tremendous rate. Up came forkful after
forkful, first on one side and then upon
the other. The "help was putting in its
best lcks and the old man was kept
squirming around in lively style, much 10
the amusement Of all hands
The help was rapidly getting tired;
it would never do to give up and allow
the old man to come on victorious. Some.
thing must be done at once when
put up IA heavy forkful on this side, give
him all you can lift from the other end,
and knock him OUT" said one of the men
to the other in an undertone.
The plan worked we'll. One of the men
lifted an extraordinary big forkful, Just
putting it upon the edge of the load. and
while the old man was leaning over,
endeavoring to get it in place. the fellow
on the her side threw all he could lift
upon the back of the old fellow, which, of
course, upset him and sent him sprawling
to the ground.
Hello! what are you down here fora"
asked help No. l endeavoring as we'll as
he could to conceal his merriment.
Quick rs a flash from the old man came
the answer. After more hay. you con-
demned fool.
The answer tired the help completely.

with brush made specially for the pur.

from the head are well brushed and put
away in boxes and covered up instead oil
being laid down anywhere, they will last
a long while. All shawls and articles
should be folded when taken from the

they disappear as by enchantment. Wish
ing to find the cause, he soon found under
the castor-oi plant number of dead flies.
and IL large number of bodies had remain

leaves 1t would therefore appear that the
leaves of the castor oil plant give out an
essential oil. or some toxic principle which
possesses very rong inseetlcide qualities.
Castor oil plants a-e in France very much
used as ornamental plants in rooms, as
they resist very well variations Of atmos.
phere and temperature. AS the castor-oil
plant is very much grown and cultivated
in all gardens, the Journal d agriculture
points out that 1t would be worth while to
try decoctions of the leaves to destroy the
green flies and other insects which in sum.
mer are SO destructive to plants and fruit

merit that trial should be made of the
properties of the castor.oil plant, both for

WHY PEOPLE TAKE MEDICINE.-Dr
Crotls, in the BRUSH QuGterlq ReUieW,
thus give, the Reason why: 1T is to b.,
feared that to most peope medicine is not
an eruiile science or a learned art, but
llLtle more tn IN the commonplace admin
lslralion of pnysic. They c,nnot under
stand medicine without drugs, and its
virtue and power are popularity measured
by the violence of its operations. lis very
name is in ordinary parlance synonymous
with pnyslc, Take from in its pills and
potions, and from them you take away its
whole art and mystery. They do not
believe in Il scheme of treatment. however
deep laid and skill iul, which does not
include II certain statutory dosage. So
that, as rule, medical men are practical.
ly compelled 10 give their patients a
visible object of faith in some form of
phN sic, which may be at most designed to
affect some very subordinate purpose
And it is renal kabe how strongly even
among tho educated classes this feeling
prevails. Cure by the administration of
mix ures and bouses Is so fixed and
ancieEt tradition that it is only very slowly
that the world give it up. The anxiety
of the friends of the patient wants to do
more Than follow the simple directions of
nursing which have been so carefully
;nculcated and possess apparently so little
remedial power. There IS thing of the
unknown about them in which fluttering
hope of great advantage can nestle. Thus
it is necessary to educate the world into a
belief in medicine apart from drugs, which
finds its power of curing in adaptations OF
the common conditions of life and applica-
ions of physiological facts-a medicine
which takes into the hands the whore life,
and orders and fashions its every detail
with scientific defniteness. 1t is found in
every day practice that this popular
misunder landing of the modern spirit
OF medicine cons anty checks the lutte
tentative advances of more scientific
treatment and it is necessary that it
should be generally understood how pow
erlully the various processes of the econo
my may be affected by the manipulation
of the conditions of common lfe."
