WHILE THE representation amendment
was under consideration in the Legislature
the morning organ was pleased to call it
the "Grubb amendment" After it passed
the House of Representatives it became the

it is the "Saulsbury amendment" aud
the "Bayard amendment combined. 1t is

Of titles was simply devised by the organ to

ROMANCE OF THE CARPET.

Basking in peace Ill the warm sDrr9 sun,
South Hill smiled upon Burlingto:
The breath of May! and the days was fair,
And the bright notes danced i'll the balmy
air;
And the sunlight cleaned whore the restless
breeze
Kissed the fragrant bloom on the apple
trees.
His beardless cheek with smile was
spanned
And he stood with a carriage whip in his
And he laughed as be dolTed his bob-tailed
coat,
And the echoing folds of the carpet smote;
And she smiled as she leaned on her busy
mop,
And she said she would tell him when to
stop.
So he pounded away till the dinner
Gave him a little breathing spell;
But he sighed when the kitchen clock
struck one,
And she said the carpet wasn't done,
But he lovingly put in his biggest licks,
And pounded like mad till the clock struck
six;
And she said in dubions kind of way
That she guessed he could finish it up next
day.
Then all that day, and the next day, too,
The uzz from the dirtless carpet flew.
And she'd give II q look AT eVentiue,
And say, "Now beat on the other side"
And the new days came as the old ones
went,
And the landlord came for his regular
rent;
And the neighbors laughed at the tireless
broom,
And his face was shadowed with clouds of
gloom,
Till Mt last one cheerless winter day
He kicked at the carpet and slid away
Over the fence and down the street,
Speeding away with footsteps fleet,
And never again the morning gold
Smiled at him beating his fold on fold
And South Hill often said with yawn,
"Where has she carpet martyr gone!"
Years twice twenty had come and passed,
And the carpet swayed in the autumn blast,
For never yet, since that spring SO fine,
Had it ever been taken down from the line.
Over the fence gray-haired man
To climb, CLONE, clum. clamb began.
He found him stick in the old wood-pile,
And he gathered it up with sad, grim
smile.
A flush passed over his face forlorn
AS he gazed at the carpet tattered and torn,
And he hit it most resounding thwack,
Till the startled air gave its echoes back;
And out of the window a white faced leaned,
And palsied hand the pale faced screened.
She knew his face-she gasped and sighed,
"A little more on the under side"
And he shivered and said, "Well, l am
blowed!"
And he turned away with heart full sore,
And he never, no never, was seen there
more.

A writer in the London Chemical
Ne,cs thinks he has solved the ques-
ton of the origin and formation OF
the diamond-it being due, he argues
to the fact that the carbonaceous
matter of fossils, such as plants and
animal remains, has been dissolved
by highly heated water, aided by
great pressure existing in the crust
of the earth. The fact is well known
that highly heated water, aided by
pressure, can dissolve silica, as in the
reysers of Iceland, etc, where'it is
formed around the mouth of the vent;
and there are also the experimental
researches of De Senarmont and
others, on the artificial production OF
crystallized minerals, as quartz, mis-
pickle, corundum, heavy spar, etc.,
by the prolonged action of water at
high temperature!and pressures. On
these grounds, therefore, it is urged
that no reason exists why highly
heated water, or water gas, should
not have the power of dissolving the
carbonaceous matter of dissolving
the carbonaceous matter of fossilifer-
Gus plants and animals, and then. on
cooling, depositing the carbon in the
crystallized condition, forming the
gem known as the diamond

One Of the reasons why more women

from this case given in the report Of the

when asked If he could suggest any
cause for her illness, exclaimed with
much animation that he could not con-

for rs all; never goes out Of the house,
even to church on sunday; never goes
gadding about at the neighbour houses,
or talking from one to another; has
been one of the best wives and mothers,
anu was always at home." The Super
intendent, commenting ON the case,

The Common Fowl.

In the face Of all that has been done to
improve the breeds of poultry, it cannot
be denied that the common fowl is still
the favorite with farmers. This IS due
to several causes. The common fowl
receives but little attention, and from
long usage to exposure, has become in
stinctively habituated to the farms that
contain poultry as custom rather than
. profit. The improved breeds are bred
for certain qualities, and, unless the con-
ditions are favorable, do not come up to
popular expectation. II placed under
adverse circumstances, they disappoint
when compared with the common fowls,
but it is due more to failure on the part
of the improved breeds than to merit in
the common kind. No common fowl ever
lived that can compete for eggs with the
LeghEn blood. There is another point
in favor Of the majority Of common
fowls, which is that many of them are of
the very best blood. being crosses Of
several breeds. They are 4 mixed, mot
ley crowd, and on any farm we may visit
there crops out the signs OF Brahma,
Cochin, Leghorn. Hamburg. or Polish
blood. This Is one Of the causes Of sue
cess, for experience has demonstrated
that crossed fowl has greater strength
and vigor than pure-bred one. The
crossed fowl is better adapted to general
purposes, and while they are not bred
Tor special results, experience teaches
the average farmer, who has no time to
bestow on them. that they suit him better
than any other. He supposes they pay
better because be has not given the others

thing like hay press. and piling these
bales in any convenient building, filing
up the crevices between the bales, and
the space between the bales and the wall,

could be stored away or fed out much
more easily.

A tall. brcad-shouldered, gray-bearded
miner from Montana, while viewing the
sights about town, strolled into one of
the theaters the other evening and took
a seat near the stage. During the per-
Torrance he became deeply interested
in one Of group of females who were
disporting themselves on the stage. The
dark eyes and rounded form of the siren
completely captured the heart of the
rugged miner, and be lost no time in
gaining an introduction to the fair en-
SLAYER, and he made an engagement to
meet her at rehearsal next day. The
miner was punctual in keeping his APP
pointment, and waited patiently until
the artistic had finished her rehearsal.
He then brusquely invited her to take
walk, and she nothing 10th consented.
This promenade was probably the most
profitable one in which the actress ever
engaged. for her companion led her into
dry goods store. and without much
ceremony began purchasing such ar
ticles as he seemed to think she needed.
Fine hosiery and underwear, q richly
trimmed cloak and handsome lace
collar were among the purchases which
the man from Montana made for the OBJ
iect of his affections.
On the following day another walk
along the leading thoroughfare was
taken by the pair. The snow was fall
ing. and the generous miner took his
companion to . store1 and bought her q
gossamer cloak and a pair of rubbers.
As they left the place he requested the
woman to accompany him to the depot.
Arriving there the miner bestowed fond
look upon her and said, with pathetic
smile:
ssYou think I'm funny Teller, now,
don't youp Well, now. I'll tell you what
I'll do. I've taken fancy to you, and
if you'll marry me and go to Montana
III buy you $500 sealskin sacque. OF
course you needn't go if you don't want
to; it will make no difference in my feel
ings for you il you don't Ishan't think
hard Of you il you don't. Now, what
do you say, yes or nop''
The favorite Of the footlights turned
her head and hurriedly reviewed the
situation. The thought Of forsaking the
glare and glitter of The stage, and APP
plause and attentions of the habitues of
the theater was too much for her, and
she f1atteringly replied:
Il don't think I win accept your
Offer"
.All right; good byer' exclaimed the
miner as he hurried into the train, and
thus they parted.
On arriving at the theater that evening
the actress was informed that package
had been left for her. It was found to
contain Glove Of hat, |" which she had
admired when out walking with the
miner, and . handsome morocco pocket
book well filled with gold pieces and
bank-notes. Chicago News.

The best bacon is made from pigs
which will not weigh moro than 125
pounds when dressed. The rashers, or
strips for the bacon. are cut lengthwise
of the pig and about half Of the sides
are used. The portion next to the back
bone is fatter, and lacks in muscle, snd
is not so good on this account. When
bacon is made from small pigs-those
weighing less than 100 pounds-the
whole Of the sides are used. Red and
Black Berkshire hogs make the best
bacon because they have the largest
proportion Of lean meat. Six pounds
of salt and four ounces of saltpeter
should be used for 100 pounds of meat.
Five pounds of brown sugar may also
be used, or two quarts OF molasses. II
the bacon is cured in barrel the salt,
saltpeter and sweetening should be
mixed and portion sprinkled on the
bottom of the barrel and some also be-
tween the layers Of meat and on
the top, and water enough, after
the meat is packed closely, put on
to cover it. In q month the meat
will be ready to smoke. Too much
smoke viii color the meat and give it .
rank taste. Another way to cure bacon
is to rub the above mixture on the flesh
side of the strips of bacon and then pile
it up one piece above another, and let the
mixture strike in. After three days rub
again and pile it up as before. A week
after rub again and pile it up, putting
the flesh side up every time. The MKT
ure should be divided into three equal
parts, to provide for the several rub
bings At the end of month the meat
will be ready for smoking, or before if
the salt has all struck in and the surface
has become comparatively dry, which is
an indication. After smoking, the RASH
ers should be sewed up in bags made Of
cotton cloth and hung up in . dry, dark
place. II the bags are whitewashed on
the outside all the better, as this will help
keep the worms out. IN. Y. Tribune.

What the Telescope Did for Astronomy.

The foundations Of physical astrono-
my were laid in the Invention of the tel
escope. Every one has heard of the
emotion which filed Europe at the an
nouncement Of the discovery of an in
strnment which had the power Of making
distant objects appear as il they were
near. 1t was 1T that time that Calico,
having only learned that such an instru-
ment existed, discovered its arrange
ment, constructed one, turned it toward
the sky, and, with this aid, fortified by
his genius, made . series of magisterial
discoveries. These discoveries belonged
pre-eminently TO physical astronomy, and
form its first courses. II we except the
sun and moon, which have very sensi-
BILE diameter, and admit of some ebser-
vations without the aid Of the telescope,
all the stars appear to the eye only as
brilliant points, and admit Of no studies
except Of their motions. Therefore, an
astronomy without the telescope would
never have permitted us otherwise than
as q matter Of probability to consider the
planets rs like the earth in form, consti-
tuition and Office. But when it was seen
that these brilliant and almost blazing
points were resolved under the
telescope into well-defined disks.
