Parsley in Winter.

1t is very easy to have supply OF pars
ley all winter. Take up the plants from
the garden, cut off all but few small leaves
at the centre Of the tuit, and plant them in
a box of good soil Another method is, to
take keg-a nail keg will answere; bore
numerous inch or inch and a half holes IL
its sides. Place the parsley with the crown
at the holes and the roots extending hori
zontally into the keg, gradually filling in
with earth to hold them in place. Finish
by planting some roots upright at the top
Either box or keg, il supported at kitchen
window and watered as needed, will give a
supply of fresh leaves all winter. The re-
sidents of cities who have no gardens, can
buy parsley for this purpose in the markets
as It is usually sold with the roots attached,
Those who are fond of parsley as season
ing, and do not care to be at the trouble Of
raisinG it as aboYe, may dry it readily and
find it above as good as when fresh. Spread
the leayes lhinly on PAM when the stove
oyen is not very hot, place this in it, and
leave the door open. The parsley will drS
very quickly; as soon as il is crisp, rub il
between the hands INTO powder, which IL
tn be kept in bottles, tightly closed.-Amer

A Painter Who Holds His Brush In His
Month.

Percy w. Hastings, of Leominster
Mass, was fond of athletic featS, and on
the evening Of June 3, 1880. after sup.
per. while attempting new feat on a
lying trapeze, fell to the ground, strik.
ing upon his head. He was picked I'M
insensible, and from that time TO the
present has had no use whatever of any
portion of his body below the neck. the
result of a fracture of the third or fourth
vertebra. From the time of his misfort-
une TO the present, II. A. Willis has
taken great interest in the young man.
About year ago Mr.. Willis told his
young friend of he case of a man named
Carter, in England, who, while at
tempting robbery, had a fall which met
with results similar to his, and who was
enabled to perform some remarkable
feats by utilizing his mouth for duties
which belonged properly to his hands.
He suggested that young Hastings
make similar trial. The suggestion
was at once adoptod, the first effort
being made to write, and after compar-
atively little practice the young man
could, by holding the pen-holder in his
teeth, write very good hand. At the
present time his writing is far above the
average, with no indication that other
than steady hand penned it. Greatly
encouraged in this direction. Percy
next took up sketching, and has an
easel attached to his reclining chair.

face, that it could easily be reached
with the pencil held within his teeth.
and commenced upon line of work
Tor which he had previously shown no
special aptitude or inclination. III was
readily apparent that he was endowed
with inherent artistic ability, and his
advance in proficiency was so rapid as
to be almost phenomenal. After pur-
suing this vocation for some time with
such remarkable success, the idea of
attempting to paint in water colors was
next considered and quickly made
practical, and in this department the
success attained has been even greater
than that attained at sketching. The
general size of his water-color pro-
auctions has been about exc inches.

he can cover by his brush with the mo-

places his brush in his mouth, and the
work proceeds. The principal line of
work Is the painting of flowers from

mencement of pencil sketching up to

Business Poultry.

In riding about the country one sell
dom sees purely blooded poultry. the
fancy fowls are In nearly every instance
owned by business men. WHY Is thisp
Is it because farmers are lacking in en-
terprise and intelligence? l think the
bottom facts are that a mixed lot Of
poultry proves most profitable. being
most hardy, and laying best. Where
one breeds for the one idea of s.looks,'
the tendency evidently is to lessen the
egg production. These are my conclu-
sions after twenty years experience. in
which time have tested most of the
new breeds as they came along. It's
entirely legitimate for any one to keen
fancy fowls If they have a taste in thaf
direction, and can afford il. as Others
keep fast horse or poodle dog
but the real business hen Is not often The
most noted for beauty Many new
breeds have been introduced; we have
plenty of poultry magazines pressing
their merits, with a host of eneruefic
champions writing up their alleged su-
peror excellences, and vet both poultrv
and eggs bring better prices than in the
years gone by. The profit from keen
ing poultry depends on manaoemenf
