The following sensible advice is
from the Burlington Qowa) Free
Press: ''We must try and encourage
manufacturing interests or expect
people to go where enterprise is ex-
hibited and where such industries are
invited and sustained. Every citizen
should take up and interest himself
in those things which would tend to
improve the place. We want factories;
we want shops-we want anything
that will make our town lively; en-
nance the value of our property, and
induce people to locate in our midst. .

THE HoME.-Farmers, make your
homes attractive, and there win be
no danger Of your wife and chill
dren forming distaste for farm life.
The farmer who has green grass
plots around bis house, handsome
stock and fowls, good orchards,
shade trees, flowers and shrubbery,
a neatly-painted home, tasty yard
fences-in fact, who uses every en-
.ergy and means to the identifying
Of home, and lending TO it's outward
as well as inward features-need
have but little fear of his sons and
daughters leaving their home for
the city. Too many consider the
farm not as q home, but as o place
to make money. Let the two ideas
be united, and consider that while
you are improving and cnltivating
the farm for the purpose of making
q livelihood, yOu are at the same
time making home such as you
and your wife and children may be
proud of, and such an one as stran-
gers and passers-by may be pleased
with and excused for coyeting. IT

ments, now is good time to com.

The report of the Department OF
Agriculture estimates the winter
wheat crop on June LIST at Is per
cent. Of an average yield. This is a
falling off from the May estimate
80 per cent? 8 per cent. The
May estimate placed the shortage at
1900. 900 bushels, the June estimate
at liz. 100000. Calculating the en-
tire crop of 1882 at sos, 600, 900
bushels, this places the yield for the
coming season at 3aO, 600, 900 bushels;
this upon the assumption that the
figures for spring wheat win not vary
materially from those of last year.

Is Not Easily Pulled Up."

1 49, S~~1 S~A4AS$A
Of Christianity In comparison with
fsith and hope st. Paul says it isthe
greatest of the three. In scriptural
sense it is generally used as synono.
nous with love. In its wide range il
not only comprehends the principle Of
humility as applied to self, but the
faagnifying of the good qualities and
importance of others. Charity has
no elementof selfshness or bigotry,
but kind consideration for the char
acters and idiosyncracies of others.
1t allows the largest latitude of opin.
ion and is not wont to condemn IN
heard the frailties and imperfections
which attach to all things human. II
throws its divine mantle of forgive
ness over the erring, and recognizes
in the fallen brother or sister an OBJ
ject Of commisseration and pity, and
exerts its kindly Offices to restore
such to the fold of responsibility and
virtue. 1t is not confined to nation
atty and clanship but permeates all
lands and extends the hands of broth
erhood to all men. 1t is higher and
broader and deeper than mere benev-
olence since it not only feeds the
hungry and clothes the naked, but
waves high over all the banner of
forbearance and love. It inspires the
patriot and philanthropist to higher
aims and nobler views, and in its out
stretching sweep takes in the inter
ests and welfare of all alike. In its
highest embodiment and sublimest
analysis it is the putting in practice
of that grand active principle of love
to God and love to man. A grace SO
benignant, SO perfecting does not
spring into fun fedged activity in a
day. It begins with self abnegation
and ends with self subjugation.-
selfhness and vanity and hate and
naalevolence of all types must be os-
tracised from the soul before charity
can sit enthroned as heavenly visi-
tant. Perhaps our earth is not yet
ready for the universal empire of a
queen SO transcendently lovely. But
there are here and there noble men
and women who, though not abso-
lutely perfect, are yet grand examples
of this heaven-born grace. To attain
position so exalted, the great battle
over self must needs be fought, bat
tie alas ! in which so many fall to rise
no more. Charity is an attainable
grace but one which win hardly be-
come universal this side of the millen-
MUM. When its principles encom-
pass the earth, and its glittering sheen
throws its brighter than electric light
over the desolate habitations of our
sin-cursed world, then we shall be
ready for another TRANSPORTATION
scene, and in that scene the inhabi-
tants of our mundane sphere viii
melt away into the glories of heaven.

that appeared to he larger than the usual
drifts around. Being of curious turn
Of mind Tom alighted and proceeded TO
investigate. Giving the snow pile u
kick hole was made and before Tom
could retreat SD pheasants flew out OF
the snow bank, soaring him SO badly
that he could scarcely count the fly
ing birds. The birds had evidently
been cOoped in the snow tent all winter,
but aside from being slightly thin they
looked well and hearty.

The law of public sales is as follows
In sale by auction there are three par
ties, viz The owner Of the property to
be sold, the auc tiOneer, and q portion
of the public. The articles must be
sold without reserve, and unless the
vendor reserve one bid he cannot bid
himself or have the aRctioneer or any
one else bid for him. There are cases
on record where a bid was not reserved,
and the vendor had i bidder who
bought it iii, and afterward suit was
brought against the vendor by the high
est bidder for the article, and it was
decided that he, the plaintiff, was the
highest outside bidder entitled to the
article against the vendor. So, also, if
any article is struck off to person, and
it is afterward ascertained that the
vendor or auctioneer practiced fraud,
by bidding himself, or had buffers, it
was held both 10y the courts of England,
and SO repeatedly decided by the Su-
pleme Court of Pennsylvania, that the
purchaser could not be held, but the
purchaser as soon as he discovers the
fraud practiced on him must return or
tender the article to the vendor.

SaLroN on THE CHARACTER or SEX
So far as sex is concerned, one notable Pc

the pecaliarity. The willy-nilly disposi-
