Fork for Stone.

So long as stone is not too large to
be turned in the furrow, or pass be-
tween the harrow-teeth, it is benefit
to the soil. II is merely solid frag-
ment which gradually weathers away
ard is constantly furnishing fertility as
the rain and frosts crumble it down.
Hence to pick field clear of these ..in-
cunbrances' is to deprive it of q source
of constantly accruing plant-food-pot-
ash, lime, phosphoric acid and other
valuable mineral matter. But some
farmers have too much stone, and tine
large ones must go. Picking stone is n
wearisome work, which may be much
eaSed by the use of stone-fork. Some
wears ago had made a strong iron fork,
fitted upon a stout handle Ike four
pronged manure-fork or digging fork,
but more curved. This not only serves
to lift stone from the ground into the
wagon without STOPPING and wearying
the back, but il serves to loosen readily
stone half buried in the soil, when
without it one might wear out finger
ends or be forced to use pick, with
much loss of time and labor. The tines
should be fourteen inches long and the
spaces between them four inches. like

ance from the Hair.
Take a piece of gum camphor as large
as chestnut and place it in one pint of
alcohol. This camphorizes the alcohol.
The mixture may be perfumed to suit
the taste. Wet the scalp with this

many instances prevent it from falling
off German women are noted for
their luxuriant hair. Once in every two
weeks they wash the head thoroughly
with quart of soft water, in which a
handful of bran and a little white soap
had been dissolved, then the yelk of an
egg. slightly beaten, is rubbed into the
roots of the hair; this is allowed to re-
main few minutes, and then the hair
is washed and rinsed carefully in soft
water. 1t is then wiped and dried thor

this near the fire in winter or in very
warm room. Almost all curling fluids
are mere impositions, but with weak
solution of isinglass firm and lasting

solution is inoffensive. The hair should
be well brushed every day in order to
keep it in perfect condition. Always
use the best brushes. They are the
cheapest in the end. Use the brush
very rapidly and for about five minutes.

receive one hundred strokes day, and
they should be applied in three minutes

A PUSS WITH A GREAT HEAD.
How a Smart Connecticut Tabbv Thwarted
Terrible Plot.


Terrible Plot.
There were three cats in Williams
street family, and the lady of the house
concluded that one was sufficient to do
all the business, and an edict of death
was passed on the old cat and her
kitten The question of the manner Of
death was settled, and the chloroform
purchased. Days passed after the
chioroform was in the house before the
executioner could muster courage to
execute the sentence. To facilitate
matters the lady thought that some
laudanum added to the cats milk would
produce stupor that would make the
chioroforming more easy. The drug
was put in the milk and rendered the
old cat. She tasted the food, cast her
eyes suspiciously about her and refused
to eat. The kitten rushed to the dish to
partake of the milk and was violently
knocked away by the Old cat, who took
n corner of a mat and covered over the
dish to hide it from the kitten and pre-
vent her from taking the medicine. "
The lady could not believe it possible
that the act was intentional on the part
of the cat, and uncovered the dish and
again rendered the milk to her. She
again knocked the kitten from the dish
and covered it over more carefully than
before. This repetition of the protective
act gained the good viii of the lady and
she gave UP killing the cats. She can
not satisfy her mind, however, whether
the action of the cat was prompted by
instinct or reason.-Norscich Comm
