The Woman,s Toothache.

She looked in at the dentist door and
SAID she had tooth she believed bad a
cavity in it, may be she'd have it out if
he wouldn't hurt any. The dentist as
sured her he never hurt anybody. She
said she expected her teeth would hurt
awful hard. They wasn't like any
body's else. He said he guessed that
was so. She said she knew it would
kill her to have tooth pulled, for she
couldn't stand anything. Size knew
she should faint or scream or do som G.
thing horrid, and the like of that; she
always did. He said he didn' believe she
would do so very badly, but she said she
should. Oh, she knew she should she
wasn't like anybody else in this world,
and her teeth were awfully sensitive.
Mary Ellen Jones could sit right down
any day and have any amount of teeth
out and the like of that, but she never
could, she knew she couldn't. She said
she could fly right up through the roof
to think of it. The dentist said she
might take something, but she said she
shouldn't dare to. She'd heard of a
girl out West who took laughing gas
and she laughed three weeks and the
the like o. that, and all the family
went crazy; and she didn't want to
drive her family crazy, for if their girl
went away they were going TO break
up this summer and go down to the
beach, and she was doing everything
she could to make il hard for the girl
so she would go away, for she'd heard
there was u lovely rink down to the
beach and the like of that, and she
wanted to go. And then she asked the
dentist if he thought her mouth would
be good one to fit false teeth TO. He
said she'd better sit down and let him
look at the one that ached, but she said
she guessed she wouldn't trouble him
to-day. The tooth didn't ache any then;
she didn't know as she could tell which
one it was and may be twas only tired,
she'd chewed so much spruce gum this
spring and the like o. that; anyway she
wouldn't bother him. She 'sposed

Militia and Mobs.

In most riots the neglect of q few
simple principles by both civil and
military authorities has caused most OF
the bloodshod. The militia should be
assembled promptly. If this is delayed,
their armories may be surrounded and
their assemblage prevented. Besides,
the knowledge that troops are in readi.
ness strengthens the police and intimi-
dates the mob. They should not be
paraded until the last moment. The
bayonet and rifle are deadly weapons,
and not suited for mere police work.
But rs soon as there is danger of the
police being overpowcred the militia
should march to their aid, and then
all sentimentality should be dispensed
with.
A mob is u gang of law breakers,
with the criminal class coming to the
top as it gains power; and the very ex-
istence of society depends upon its be-
ing promptly but down. Halfway meas
uros are cruelty. Any militia officer
who premits his men to be shot or
stoned without resistance deserves q
court-martial. A mob never appreciates
forbearance. Blank cartridges simply
inspire them to fresh assaults. Firing
in the air has the same effect, besides
killing innocent people at n distance.
Volleys are seldom necessary, To de-
tail n few sharp-shooters to pick of the
leading aggressors is far preferable. If
the thrower of the first brick is shot, as
a rule no more will be thrown. Four
shots at Cincinnati which killed four
leaders dispersed the mob that attacked
Powells' gun-store. The same
number fired with like effect would
have scattered that which attacked
the jail, if they had been the first
which had been fired by the
troops. 1t must be remembered that
no troops will stand being stoned
or being shot at without firing in return.
If the officers wait too long Gas was the
case in the Orange riots in New York;,
some one is sure to fire without orders,
bringing on general fire which un-
necessarily destroys many lives. The
troops should not allow themselves to
be besieged. Strong detachments
should traverse the streets, aiding the
police in dispensing all crowds and in
clearing the streets. The mob, when
once broken, will never again collect
If the militia are strong and well dis
ciplined, and ii is understood distinctly
that they will permit no tritiing. their
mere appearance is usually sufficient.
If their condition is such that the mob
do not fear them, many lives have to
be sacrificed before peace can be restor-

The Philosophy Of Farming.

The philosophy of good farming con-
sists in strict economy in everything
connected with the farm orits business.
Nothing should be lost by careless neg
lect, and everything should be put to
good use. Instead of cropping land
continuously without manure or rest, it
to be made into feed or manure, and
not left to waste away on the field.
Straw ought not to be burned; it makes
good feed and good manure. Manure
ought to be carefully applied to the soil
we intend to cultivate, and not left to
dry and be blown away by the wind.
Feed ought to be preserved in good con-
dition. Stock should never be fed on
musty or mouldy food. Fences, build
ings, and utensils ought to be kept in
good condition. Wherever rent or
decay appears give it timely care.
But in another direction our philoso-
phy opens up a vast field where most OF
the secrets of successful farming lie.
There is no use in cultivating ten acres
if we can make five produce as much
and as good as the ten. There is
less profit in clearing ten or fifteen
acres than if we clear fifteen or twenty
If ten-acre field, well cultivated
and manured, will produce more
than twenty acres carelessly cultivated,
it is better to work the smaller field
| If three-year- old steer is more profit
able in market than load of corn, il
is better to put the corn into the steer
If fallow land produces better crop;
than that from whichs crop has just
been removed, it is better to fallow
land If good colts, calves, lambs and
pigs are worth more than inferior ones
they are the best ones to raise. III stock
will keep better, healthier and cheaper
when we'll protected by shelter, ther
shelter pays. II one acre of land, prop
erly managed, will produce more milk
butter and meat than five acres with
cut care, then proper culture is the
best.
True farming is science, and its
philosophy is a study. The goot
farmer is the best informed man living
on matters which lie at the bottom o
all material prosperity, and when he get
his business boiled down to poin
where he makes the best use of every
thing he has; when he can make NOR
! money and live better on ten acres D
/ land than many do on larger farms, i
/ is evident that he has studied tn,

Linseed POultice.

The great art of poultice making
consists in applying it TO the patient
sufficiently hot, and, therefore. it is ad-
visable to warm all the materials before
beginning. Crushed linseed should be
used, and not linsecd meal, from which
all the oil has been extracted. The
linseed commonly sold in packets is not
of the right sort, for, if it were, the
paper would be quite saturated with
oil before the packet had been made up
many hours. Put the linseed before
the fire or in the oven for twenty
minutes to heat Use by preference Il
tin bowl, and scald it with boiling
water; then pour in as much boiling
water as will be needed for the poultice,
sprinkle in the hot linseed with one
hand and stir vigorously with knife
to the required thickness. To Judge of
this requires some practice. A poul-
tice should be somewhat moister, if
applied to an open wound, than if it is
Intended to relieve some internal pain;
but in no case ought it to be sufficiently
moist to stick in patches to the skin of
the patient. The next step is to take a
square of rag or paper half an inch
larger all around than the poultice is
intended to be, spread the linseed on
this about half an inch thick, leaving
the edges clear; fold the rag over on
each side and apply at once. covering
with pad OF cotton wool and layer
of India rubber or oil silk to keep the
heat in. 1t is good plan to oil the
face of the poultice with q feather, as
this eflectually keeps it from sticking
to the skin, even if it is not well mixed,
and it is better than to put the poultice
into a muslin. If, however, the muslin
is preferred. on no account should 8
bag be made, for the poultice cools
while it is being put in. A large piece
of old linen, folded over at the back
like parcel, keeps the linseed in and
makes at the same time pad to cOvel
1t. If mustard poultice is wanted il
can be made in the same way, save fol
adding a certain proportion of dry
mustard to the linseed. Some person,
prefer to boil q little mustard in the
water that is to be used.-N. Y. Herald

Tho Model Farmer.

Tic should not buy more land than he
can pay for easily, and till TO advant-
age. The hardest thing to raise on a
farm is mortgage. Thirty or forty
acres carefully cultivated will prove
more profitable than two hundred on
which the same care and labor are ex-
pended.
He should not have more stock than
he can shelter we'll and keep in good
order through all the season. 1t is poor
economy to stint cattle through the
winter and expect them to do as we'll
in the coming spring as they would
under generous treatment A man
should be merciful to his stock not only
because of moral considerations but
because IL pays best in the end Cattle
that are stoned by the boys, kicked by
the men and worried by dogs, are not
likely to thrive in flesh or milk. Such
treatment is silly, brutal and every way
Improbable. The occasions are very
rare where beasts of burden horses or
6xen are benefited by the application
of the rod. People who wreak their
insane fury on helpless dumb animals
are Mt those moments something lower
than beasts themselves.
He should keep careful account of
his income and outgocs. No business
can prosper that is based on uncer-
tainties. The labit of keeping close
account begets prudence, economy and
wisdom in management. If a man can
figure out q fair profit as the result of
his years labor 1t is source of salts
faction and contentment; If the balance
is on the other side he will ascertain
the cause of his failure and follow new
courses. "Book farming" is no longer
despised by intelligent men.
He should make his home and its inn
mediate surroundings rs pleasant rs his
means will permit. He should at least
take as much pride in beautfying his
home and supplying it with the COM
forts and conveniences, il not the lux
uries of life, rs he does in having fine
or blooded stock and neat and large
out-buildings. A proper regard for the
happiness OF those whose duties lie
| chiefly within doors would dictate this.
The 'matters of the house" are of pri-
mary Importance, for what after all is
the chief end of labor but to make the
home life happier and better Half the
dullness and monotony of life on the
farm, driving the boys and girls to the
towns and cities, would be banished il
the same pains were taken to make the
home beautiful and attractive that are
taken by most residents of towns and
cities.
The successful farmer will do his
work in season. There is no business
where regularity is more essential than
in farming. The merchant and the
manufacturer can cover ground lost by
neglect or inattention easier than the
farmer, The farmer who is chasing
his work all the year round, trying to
catch up with it, is doomed to ultimate
failure. ~ Y. Observer.

African Topography.

Most African travellers are now con-
lining their attention TO comparatively
small areas, and they can therefore de-
scribe with accuracy and minuteness
districts which Livingstone, Speke,
Cameron and Stanley were able to
sketch only in broad outline. They are
compelling geographers to revise their
notion on many interesting questions of
African topography. Mr.. A. M.
Mackey, G. f., who has spent three
years near Victoria Nyanza, writes
that our maps give very erroneous
outline of the lake, and that Stanley's
charts are extremely inaccurate, which
is not remarkable in view of Stanley's
short visit there. Six months ago the
Nyanza, and Mr.. Mackey expected
with her aid, to make an accurate survey
of the whole coast.
The missionaries at King Mtesa' cap
ital have just sent word that the lake
which has long figured on the map as
Lake Bahringo, and which the explorer
Fischer tried to reach last year, has no
existence. Stanley thought he had
identified his Aruwimi River, the large
northern aiflucnt of the Congo, with
the Welle River of Schweinfurth, but the
researches of DR.. Junker, who is spend
ing his fourth year among the MAN
Mans make it appear that the Aru-
wimi is known near its headwaters as
the Nepoto River, and that the Wells
empties into Lake Tchad. Perhaps
every atas published last year repre-
sented the Quango River as flowing into
the Congo above Stanley Pool, though
we are now certain that it mingles with
the Wabuma River before it meets the
Congo.
Six years ago the late Bishop Gilbert
Haven wrote, what geographers gem
orally believed, that lakes Tanganyika
and Nyassa were separated by dis
tance of five hundred miles; but the
missionaries who are now building a
road between those lakes find that a
highway two hundred and twenty miles
long will connect them. DIR. Steckei
has recently found that the Odessa
River which appears on the map as an
aflluent of the Blue Nile, empties into
the Indian Ocean; and Messrs. Drum
mond and ONeill have just discovered
that the Lucinda River, which, since
Livingston visited it, has been thought
TO drain Lake Shirwa, rises in q lake
| further north whose existence has hith-
erto been unknown. So. step by step
the real facts are superseding errone
Gus impressions of African geography.
