Pass the material to be used for

From recent experience the pear
seems to take the place of the apple as

In the early stages the SPAWN, says
the Mirror and Farmer, is not clearly
developed, but afterward it is so well
marked that SPAWN may be pronounced
to exist without an examination of
the Joint. Treatment should be direct
ed 10 the abatement of the inilamma-
ton, which gives rise TO the pain, and
also to promote absorption of the new
growth. Apply tincture of iodine daily
over the joint with brush.
A delicious sauce may now be pre-
pared for winter use; it is made of cram
berries and raisins. To one quart can
full cranberry sauce allow one good
handful raisins, they impart II delicate
flavor. which is a great improvement
on the cranbcrries alone. Cranberries
ars also excellent canned alone, with a
little sugar, for pies and buildings. 1t
is better to put them up early in the
season, as there is likely to be more
waste later on Chicago Journal.

Improper Harvesting.

The harness is fruitful cause of irri-
tation, annoyance, distress, torture,
CALLING and bruising of the horse.
Whatever be its parts or conformation,
it ought, in every instance, TO fit ex-
actly the animal, and to be always in
good order. The collar and the saddle,
in particular, ought to be thoroughly
suitable in size and shape, and thor
oughly adapted to the maintenance of
a maximum of ease and comfort; for,
when they incommode the animal, or
render him uncomfortable. or especially
when they absolutely gall him, they
make him restless and reluctant to
work, and destroy his temper, waste
his powers, and entail upon him useless
and perhaps severe suffering. Even an
improperadjusting of the names or
the girth may greatly distress him, and
waste much of both his strength and
his temper. The methods of attaching
the draught, also, and the direction
which the line of draught is made to
take with reference TO the center of
gravity, are of the utmost consequence,
and may happen, through ignorance or
reconsideration, to be SO exceedingly
bad as to neutralize by far the greater
portion of the animals power, and
make it hard enough work for him to
drag along his own body.-Prairte
Farmer.

An Add:sOnian Query.

The question has been raised whether
an author can refer to his own produce
tons in terms of commentator. In
some instances this has been done, not
withstanding the risk of cenSure, one of
the most striking instances being found
in Addison. This distinguished writer,
after completing his tragedy of "Cato,"
felt the importance of calling the atten-
ton of the public 70 its most impressive
les on the Immortality of the soul. l
find this in the Spectator for December
8, 1714, which opens with a disquisition
on eternity and closes thus:
] have IL translation of the speech of Cato,
which hath accidentally fallen into my hands,
and which for condolences, purity and cle'
gance can not be sufficiently admired.
He then gives the speech in Latin
hcxamcters on one side of the page,
while the other side contains the trans
lation, beginning at must be so; Plato,
thou reasonest WE'LL This speech,
which is termed "Cato's soliloquy,"
was in Addison's opinion the best thing
in the play, and hence he translates it
into Latin and gives it to his readers as
q fragment of antiquity. Such is the
example Addison gives us of an author
commenting his own works. Pope dis
covered it and was no doubt highly
amused at Addison sclf-complaccncy,
but when the tine came to use it in sa-
tire he made it very effective. Addison
afterward incurred Pope's displeasure,
and the latter rctorted by that scathing
paragraph which is one of the curiosl-
ties of literature. Here he couples Adj
Olson and his hero in the following
manner:
Like Cato give his little senate laws
And sit attentive to hC own applause"

-Moiere, the French tenor, went mad
about his own whistling and was con-
fined in an asylum. In this country it is
the people hearing the whistling who
90 mad. For six months thousands
upon thousands of men and boys, from
the first milkman to the man who
noisily goes home ''till morning." have
been whistling about eleven notes of
"Sweet Violets" until n majority of
good people show incipient signs of
brain fever.-N. Y. Sun.

Scotch Beauties.

They are wiry and hard-enduring
rather than n muscularly massive race,
though here and there the Scandina-
Wan physique is found TO prevail. In
the island of Lewis it is odd to note how
in the north. where the names of the
villages and mountains. have Morse ter
limitations (bost and bhan, the popula-
ton is of the stalwart, tall, fair-haired,
Scandinavian type, while the smaller
black-haired or red-haired Celt occupies
the southern half Of the island. in which
the names of the streams and mountains
and lakes are exclusively Celtic. The
handsomest man | have ever seen was
boatman on the west of Skye, the calm
and serious dignity of whose face seemed
more suggestive of Leonardo da Vinci
than of herring fishing; and the hand
soonest woman | have ever seen was a
young married lady who, some years
ago, happened to be travelling in the
Clansman, and whose gently modulated
English indicated an Inverness origin.
When Highland girl, even of the
peasant class, is pretty (and the phe-
nomeuOn is not of very rare occurrence),
the prettiness is of refined and intel
lcctual type. the forehead high, the
eyes clear, fill and contemplative, the
mouth fine, and the expression of the
face gentle and yet firm. Wordsworth
never forgot the beauty of the Highland
girl he saw at Inversnaid Indeed, it is
said he had to recur to that fount of in
sp;ration when he wished to pay po-
eiical compliment TO his wife. For the
rest. the way in which an educated
Highland young lady speaks English is
one of the most delightful things in the
world, though no doubt she would be
very much surprised, and even indig-
nant, if she were told she had any ac-
cent at ail.-Hm. Black, IN Harpers

The consumption of coke both by
railway and manufacturing companies
is increasing rapidly in this country,
and bids fair to take the place of coal
for purposes requiring immense heat.
The greatest development in coke man
ufacture is in the ConnellsVille region
of western Pennsylvania, which has be-
come famous for it's production.
Throughout the West crushed coke,
about the size of anthracite coal, is used
largely for domestic purposes. 1t is
easily kindled, gives intense heat, emits
10 smoke, gas, or other odor, and burns
resdily with an ordinary draught-

A Partially Dead Man.

The Morning Herald, Baltimore, Nd,
states. Major B. S. White, of this city,
describes his miraculous cure as follows:
AZ have been a partially dead man for ten
years. Doctors attributed my sufferings
to the enlargement of certain glands. The
quantity Of medicine l took without relief
would be sufficient to set up tirst-class
apothecary shop. Finally st. Jacobs Oil
was recommended. l had my spinal col
.umn thoroughly rubbed with it. All those
knots, kinks and stiffness have passed
away, and am myself again."
