Burton on Invisible Devils.

With the exception OF Ibn Chaldir,
who passed nine-tenths of his long
life in a public library, Robert Bur
ton, the vicar of Segrave, was prob
ably the best read man who ever
lived. He had studied philology,
philosophy, theology, law and medi-
cine; he was a frst-class mathema-
ticiah, a jealous astronomer, and
calculator of natiyities;" he had
read nearly every volume in the
Bodleian collection and in the
library of Christ Church College.
He was well versed in the philo~
sophlcal speGulations of the media
val school men. He had mastered
the inductive system of his great
contemporary. All this learning
did not prevent him from perpe-
trating the following dicta:
1.-THE air Is not quite so full Of
flies in summer as it is at all times
Of invisible devils. Fiery devils are
such as commonly werk by blazing
stars. fre-drakes, or iQ11eS fatal
(Which lead men often IN tStLn1iY1G
ant pT9cipitiG), whom, if travellers
wish to keep off, they must pro-
nounce the name OF God with
clear voice, or adore him with their
faces in contact with the ground.
Aerial devils are such as keep
quarters in the air, cause tempests,
thunder and lightning, make it rain
stones, wool, frogs etc. Subterra-
mean devils are as common as the
rest, and do as much harm. The
last are conYersant about the
center Of the earth, to torture the
souls of damned men to the day of
judgment; their egress and regress
some suppose to be about Etna,
Lipari, Terra del Fuego %, ETC.,
because many shrieks and fearful
cries are continually heard there
abouts, and familiar apparitjons of
dead men, ghosts, and COLLINS.
The devil being a slender and in
comprehensive spirit, can easily
insinuate himself into human
bodies. a, nun did eat lettuce with

with the best constitutions and in the
most favorabie conditions, before
reaching the allotted three-seore and
ten. That is, thousand persons
now just entering the field
OF aslf-sustaining life, will
live and labor $500. years, in their
days, Of Vigor and self-sustaining
power, before they shall die or pass
into old age. This is only three
fOurths of the allotted so working
years which are enjoyed by the most
favored. The loss is great, but it is
much less than it was in former
generations.
Those whose years are weakened
and whose lives are shortened are
40 more fixed by any law Of nature
IN their present low vital condition
than were their fathers ages ago.
There is nothing more in
their personal organization or So
cial relation, to prevent their i'm
provement than there was with poo
pie similarly circumstanced in times
past. These have the same power
as their fathers, and more Oppor-
tunity. to amend their condition
and their habits. to increase their
strength and diminish their all
and prolong their days on
earth. And they will do so: the
present. and the coming generations
will go on in this good way; each
will mako some progress, and to
each successiI ely will be given a
larger, richer, and longer life.

increased, and to feel assured that
by the same means it may be still

ceiYed q richer legacy OF life from
our fathers than they received

This is a limited view of

of corn again. This is limited view of
the case. # man sells seed corn and
charges more because it is seed. he is
responsible to the purchaser for the full
amount of the crop he might have
raised but did not on account of the de-
feet in seed. II the owner of seed corn
will not guarantee it, then buy only
where it has been fairly tested. and you
know positively that it is the same corn.
and that it will grow. Do not make
fools of yourselves in so important a
matter.
AS general thing it is not safe to
plant corn two years old. The fact that
it grew last year is no evidence that it
will grow this year. 1t never grows
entirely as well as good new seed. And
yet, after trial this year, if it proves of
strong vitality it can be trusted. But
we warn our farmer friends about being,
in so important matter, caught in the
trap by some sharper who wishes to
make speculation in seed corn. There
will be enough failures without care
lessly adding to the number. Let every
person appoint himself committee Of
one to see to his own case, and attend
to it closely, vigilantly. 1t is an emer-
gency which will bring out Il mans
energy if he has any. Two years ago
the Northwest lost 300, 100000 bush
els of corn from poor seed. And
there is a chance for double that this
year. r.-Iowa State Register.

The Richest Man.

The richest man in New York City
died Wednesday morning. Not Gould
or Vanderbilt, or any other of the
money -grabbers, but money-giver in
stead, who knew what the old English
epitaph meant: ''What l kept, that
l lost. What gave away, that
l had No man better proved
the truth of this than Peter Cooper, who,
at ninety-two, leaves world which he
has tried SO far as one man could to
make the better for his 1iving in it,
with not a human being to say word in
dispraise of his stewardship, and with
thousands to remember him with bless
ing and honor. He gained great wealth,
and gained it without the gambling
that is called speculation, or the robbery
that is termed watering stock, or by
any other questionable means, but by
industry and prudence in business and
by judicious investment. He used his
gains without niggardliness and with
out ostentation. in good deeds, in whose
results he did eat of the labor of his
hands and was satisfied; and though he
dies with far less money to show than
the leaders of the vulgar millionaire
society of New York, he is in essentials
far richer than they all.-Springfeld

Guaranteeing Seed Corn.

When man offers seed corn for sale
and charges higher price for it than
the regular price of corn, for the reason
that it is seed corn, he is responsible to
the party buying for the loss, if it does
not grow. And the only way he can
absolve himself from this responsibility
is to have it distinctly understood at the
time that the purchaser takes it at his
own risk. And no one should buy seed
corn this year except on conditions well
understood. There will be plenty of
greedy men offering seed corn for sale
without understanding what they are
doing. or being irresponsible for the
damages Some may think the meas
ure of damage would be refunding the
money paid. or furnishing equal amount

Some Things That Science Does Not
Teach.

In scalding hog, does science teach
that if the water is a little too hot the
hair will not slip, that it is set, and
must be shaved off with knife? Every
farmer should know these things and
they must be taught. Do any of the
graduates of any agricultural school
know that in building stack of grain
or hay, it must be kept fullest in the
middle, and well trod down? Do they
know how to tie up and shock wheat?
Do they know how to whet scythe?
Do they know that if the blade is
whetted up and down it will not cut off
the straw clean, as it should be whetted
from the heel to the point? Do they
know how to lengthen or shorten the
plow gear SO that the plow will not cut
too deep or shallow? Do they know
how to put up rail fence so that some
of the rails will not project at the corners
to snag the stock? Do they know how
to put up a stone fence so it will stand,
and that the long rocks ought to be put
crosswise the fence to act as braces,
and if this is done it will not tumble by
settling? Do they know how to square
house? Science teaches them that
the hypothenuse of a right angle triangle
is equal to the square of the two sides,
but they have never seen the applica-
ton of this rule, thus they build a house
pointing every way but the right way.
Experience teaches us that with a ten
foot pole house can be squared in five
minutes. We measure eight feet on one
sill and make a notch, six feet on the
other sill and make notch. If the
ten-foot pole just reaches from notch to
notch that corner is square, the other
three corners treated in the same way
will be square, and also house." ola
