A Woman r stored.

There was chap down at the Central
Market yesterday, with lifting ma
chine. 1t was warranted to restore a
torpid liver, cure cold feet, remove
freckles and do ever SO many other
things, and it was only five cents to lift
and tug and pull and grow red in the
face and bulge your eyes out like half
onions stuck upon barn door There
was a trick about the machine. BY
pressing aspiring the handle would come
of as the pointer reached ten pounds
After ever so many men had lifted ever
so many hundred pounds woman got
down out of a one-horse wagon and in
quired:
What dye call it?'
"a lifting machine, madam"
as it good for woman
Excellent, madam. You'll Il feel like
new woman after lifting 800 pounds
on this machine"
well, I'll try it once she said as
she removed her shawl. The old man
is good deal bigger than this machine,
and if can't lift him over the fence l
don't want cent
She seized the handles, drew long
breath, and away she went, landing in
basket Of onions and upsetting q score
Of fower-pots and bushel of cranber-
ries. There was yell from the men,
whoop from the boys, and before one
could count twenty the woman was up
and aboard of her vehicle and driving off
on gallop.
Come back! come back yelled the
crowd but she hourished the handle of
the litter over her head and brought it
down on the horse with whack, and
kept him at his fastest pace until she
was out OF sight, and that was how n
lifting-machine came to stand there all
day without anything to lift by, and
that was why a sharp-nosed chap with
plaid pantaloons aud white hat kept
continually saying;
"Thatere woman probably supposes
that she has busted this ere machine
all to pieces, and if don't get that ere
handle back what's to become of the
rest of this ere outtito' Detroit Free

Thomas Carlyle and His Wife.

Carlyle on a rampage was without
doubt demon. His wife's letter des-
cribing him in such state fills one
with Indignation alta man who preached
glorious gospel, but was absolutely
destitute of self-control and considera-
ton. Carlyle" she writes, returned
from his travels very bilious, and con-
tinues very bilious up to this hour The
amount Of bile that he does bring home
TO me, in these cases, is something
'awfully grandr Even through that de-
teriorating medium he could not but
be struck with certain admiration at

complished in his absence in the shape

curtains, etc, and all the other manifest
Improvements into which had put my
whole genius and industry, and so little
money as was hardly to be conceived.
For three days his satisfaction over the
rehabilitated house lasted; on the fourth
the young lady next door took a hit Of
practicing on her accursed piano forte,
which he had quite forgotten seemingly,
and he started up disenchanted in his
new library and informed heaven and
earth in peremptory manner that
there he could neither think nor live,
that the carpenter must be brought back
and steps taken to make him a quiet

driven me to despair Down went a

erting herself to staye the torment OF

OF my circumstances. 1t was got through
TO the end, this new hubbub, but when
my husband proceeded to occupy his
new study, he found that devil a bit he
could write in it any more than besides
the piano; ii was all so strange to him.
The fact is, the thing he has got to write

Modern Dairy Farming.

Modern dairy farming, says the Hon.
Hiram Smith, of Wisconsin, starts out
with keeping one COW on four acres
and this should be thepass-word to every
dairy lodge-"one COW to four acres
and this should be rapidly reduced until
the undoubted possibility is reached Of
keeping one 10 every acre.
One OF the principles of modern dairy
farming Is 10 have our cows give the
most NIX when dairy goods are at the
highest price, which Is invariably in
vinter. 1t has been repeatedly demon
strated that Il good herd of cows COM
ing into milk in September, October and
November will, in the average, give
from $500 to 5000 pounds of milk ap-
nually. The milk is worth to sell at q
factory, or to manufacture into butter
or cheese, Sl.30 per 100 pounds, or
$5S, 30 rs the average for each cow In
other words, dairy farming with one
COW to eight acres on 100 acres produces
SLIGO; modern dairy farming with one
COW to four acres produces $4,000, an
increase of 81, 800, by an outlay for feed
and help--a net profit of 500, sum
sufficient to raise the price of land from
$50 per acre to 800 per acre.
A fundamental condition. of success
full farming is large crops of corn, not
less than two acres of fodder aud four
acres of field corn for every ten cows,
or q total twenty-four acres for forty
COWS, All The manure of the farm
should be evenly placed on these TWEEN.
ty-four acres during the winter, and
the land plowcd previous to the 10th of
May and thoroughly narrowed, the corn
planted immediately thereafter with a
horse drill, the rows three and one-half
feet apart, and the kernels from seven
TO nine inches apart and cultivated well
before the corn comes up with fine
tooth harrow. Frequently thereafter
cultivate until the 10th of July at which
time, II the work has been honestly
done, IL will be free from weeds with
never a hoe In the field and 1t Is almost
certain to produce fifty bushels per acre
of sheled corn aud thirty tons of fodder
II takes less labor TO raise twenty-four
acres of corn rs described above, than
TO raise half that amount planted In hills
