prophets and poets have proclaimed
and sung the promise: con earth
peace, good will toward men," This
is the promise that ,heralded the
birth of Clrist. 1t is not for us to
say whether that Christ did bring
the peace and goodwill; the preach
ers must tell of that; but it is not
going into the domain of the min.
lister to say that if the promise has
not been literally fulfilled,
the failure is due to
the refusal to accept and practice
what the Savior taught. His life
was a lesson Of yearning love for
man, of sympathy with the weak
aud erring. of denunciation of ny
pocrisy and evil, of purity, of good.
ness, of virtue. of "peace on earth
good will to men," Ii men would
fix their eyes on the manger at
Bethlehem, if they would look upon
the mount from which dropped the
blessed teachings to which every
creed processes to say amen; if they
would love Christ and their fellow =
men as He loved all mankind, would
not the promise that was sung be
verified, and peace reign from
pole to pole. and everywhere dwell,
from the far east to the distant west :?

If hor-es, cattle and sheep could
have salt to lick or nibble at all
times, as they desire, while in stable,
yard or pasture, they would escape
various diseases and be more thrifty
and useful than when depri we'd of it,
or even given irregularly. Swine
and poultry are better for having a
little pure brine mixed up with their
food. Since we have made this a
regular practice. we have never lost
an animal from a disease of any
kind, and only q few fowls, and
these latter would not have become
sick had they not unfortunately got
in an uncovered sink-hole, where
they picked out bits of decomposed
vegetables and bread. a small GUAM
tity Of which had got there from the
dish-water. The rock salt that comes
in large Jumps, and may be bought
by the ton at low rates, is excellent
for livestock. Boxes for this salt
may re arranged by the managers and
in the pastures. They will need fill
ing at distant intervals.

the Play Was Interrupted.

Some OF the nice children in Com
mon wealth avenue recently pro-
posed to surprise their parents with
a dramatic performance: with the
distinct understanding that M adult
was to witness a rehearsal or to ask
about the nature of the play, written
by a young miss OF ten years, who
w. s TO assume the role of heroine. as
sisted by a lad OF the same age. On
the night of the performance the pa
rents o. the children assembled in
the front drawingroom of one of the
large residences, and waited for the
drawing aside Of the porlieres with
commendable patience. The first
scene represented the wedding of the
hero and heroine, and the departure
of the former for the wilds of the
West, where he was to reap his for
tune ia raising cattle and mining.
This went off finely, and the por-
there's We're closed with a loud burst
Of applause. A lapse Of ten years
was supposed to have passed between
ne first and second acts, and when
the act commenced the husband had
returned, and his wife, not look
ing a day older, greeted her spouse
in a formal manner, and even asked
him TO remain and dine with her,
which he consented to do. While
seated at the table..eating ice cream,
the husband told how he had toiled
for wealth and acquired millions, all
for the sake of tue dear wife he had
left behind. This had such an effect
on the matrOn that she finished the
ice cream, sighed to think that there
was no more on the table, and then
addressed ner husband, speaking
earnestly and firmly: "You have
done WE'LL" she said, "but while you
have been at work I have not been
idle. You shall see what 1 have &C.
compiished." She touched a bell,
and a white-capped bonnie entered
the room, leading a toddling infant a
year old, and followed by nine others
of various ages. one for each year of
married life. The actors to this day
do net understand why the play was
interrupted by shouts Of laughter and
applause from the fathers and
mothers who were present. At any
rate, they say the play was a IS,
but the parents think it a little
Frenchy in construction and plot

The Solid Content q Farm9r Feels

Farming is a slow way to make
money. but then there is a law of
compensation about everything in
this life, and farming has its b,es$
ings that other pursuits do not have.
The farmer belongs to nobody. He
il the freest man upon earth and the
most independent. He has more
latitude and longitude. He has .
house in the country with plenty of
pure air and good water. If he makes
but little in the field. he has no occa-
sion TO spend out little. He can
raise his own hogs, and sheep, aud
cattle and chickens. His wood costs
nothing. and the luxury Of big tack
logs and blazing fires in open fire
places all winter long is something
that city people long for, but cannon
afford. Nv own farm cost me $7,O00.
i have I'D acres OF o. en- land in good
condition, and it yields me on an
average about five dollars An acre
Owe all expenses. Say nine per cent.
upon investment. Well, that is
mighty little, considering my own
labor and supervision. I've seen the
time when l made five times as much
without any capital except my head.
But then We have to keep a pair Of
horses to ride around and they nave
to be fed from the farm.
There are little leaks all around,
but still We are happier on the farm
than We were in town, and feel more
secure from the ills of life. We fear
no pesti.ente or disease. no burglars
or thieves. We IOck no deSTs. and

Whitaker and the Spent BALI.

4 spent ball, striking With a dull
thud like . stone thrown by some
strong-aTmed man, often caused
mere pain to the man struck. and
more eonmotioD in the ranks, than
a bullet that tore througha mans
leg or arm. A spent ball always
HsIippei up" on you. 1t always
came when least you expected it
from an unlocked for direction, and
struck . part Of the body not expect
ing to be hit. So it always produced
a stunning effect. In some Tegi-
nients spent balls universally
called '.stunnens," and very many
men had painful and uncomfortable
experience with them. Some day
the men longing in line of battle.
protected BY q hill, ans: listening to
the volleys on the right, would be
disturbed by the coDtortiOns Of a
man who had been asleep. A spent
ball had struck his foot and, without
breaking the shoe leather, had made
him crazy with pain. Another
would b. hit in the region of the
stomach and labor under the impress
sion that bis entrsils had been torn
out. Another. struck on the hand,
would yell like an Indian, whereas
ha a bullet gone through his body
he would shut his lips and uttered
not a grcan. The boys had a theory
that those spent balls came from the
squad of the enemy, and
that the air up q little distance was
full of them. They demoralized men
IN shouider-sirsps as well as in
blouses. At Chickamauga, General
Whitaker, storming forward at the
head Of his brigade, was struck in
the abdomen. Deathly sick and
faint, he called to General Granger:
General, l am hit in a bad place.
Who'll take charge Of my bOys?"
Granger replied: "I'il do it my

along rearward, concluded to
see the extent OF his wound. He IN
buttoned his coat, but found no
blood. His undertaking was not
stained or punctured. There was no
wound in the flesh. Realizing that
he bad been hit by a spent ball,
Whitaker wheeled his horse and in
towering rage galloped back to the
scene of the battle. Dashing up to
the1 commander of the reserve, he
reared: "I'm not wounded worth a
damn; I'll run thi. brigade myself"
and he did.

The hills are reported as being
overrun in all directions by prospec-

A very important strike Of rich ore

and clear vein, has been made in the
Morton mine, on Lees gulch.
A man named hurry shot a man

Murray beat q retreat unmolested.
Fifteen new buildings arc in course

The papers are reported as made
out for the transfer of the Minnie
Moore mine to an English Company
at $5OO, 600, and 1t is stated the deed
will be filed in the recorders Office in

Lumber is being manufactured
from straw at several places in the
west, and is coming into quite gen.
eral use for certain kinds of work.
II is turned out in boards or sheets
thirty-three inches in width by
twelve feet in length, and of various
thicknesses. 1t is heavier than black
walnut, has no grain. is OF the color
of straw board though considerably
darker, and is much stronger than
ordinary timber. Though made in
considerable quantities at the pres.
ent time, the supply seems hardly
equal to the demand. There + ad-
vantages in this material, which in
the near future will probably make
it OF the highest value, not only to
carpenters, and architects, but for
the car builder, and in fact for the
mechanics generally. Its toughness,
the irmness with which j: holds
nails and screws, the ease with which
1t can be cut by tue aid Of heat,
shaped in dies, and is not liable to
shrink or warp, and IL little agected
by water, even when unprotected,
makes the range of its probable uses
extraordinarilylgreat. 1t seems also
to be q non-coaductor 10 electricity

Frank Frayne, the actor who
killed Miss Won Behren, in Cincin-
natl, by firing at an apple on her
head. appears to have recovered

fessional tour in New England, out
introduce in a play a savage dog, a
bear, and a den of lions. There are
no rife shots, it is true, but the eli

entrance into the den of beasts, for
the finding of a paper, necessary to
the unfolding of the plot. Frayne IS
not the man who takes the risk,
however, as a lion tanner from a cir
