Sale of a Noted Estate.

Sir Samuel Wilson's purchase Of the
Osmaston estate is quite e..Monte Cristo.
ike proceeding. He has not only bought
the property, but also the whole OF the
contents of the house. which were to
have been dispersed this month by q
sale which would have lasted eight days.
The cellar of wine has long enjoyed 8
reputation in Derbyshire, and the enor.
nous house wa furnished bv its late
owner in the most costly manner, and
contains a very fine collection of rare
prints and old china. Osmaston lies on
the main road from Derby to Ashbourn,
just ten miles from the county town
The house, which is one of the finest in
the midland counties, is in the Elizabeth,
an style, and was built about 1850 by the
late Mr., Osmaston, who is sad to have
spent on it and on the gardens owe
$500, 600. Among the exceptional fea
lures of Osmaston Manor are q ventila-
ting tower sixty-five feet high and 9
smoke tower in the garden l50 feel
high, to which all the smoke of the
house is conveyed by atunnel which
passes through the cellars. The grounds
are very beautiful. The property has
been sold under the Settled Estates act,
and the vendors have been fortunate in
finding purchaser. for the house was
all out of proportion to the value of the
property, and could not be kept up ir
adequate style, on less than at least twice
the rental ofthe Derbyshire and Noting.

Nutrition in RISter.

According to a writer in the Times,
butter is the most nutritious article of
food. The nutritive value of a pound o
it is equalto that ofone-and-a-half pound
of flour and three-and-a-half pounds Of
beef. And it is wholly digestible. This
is nc doubt the reason why there has
been from time immemorial" popular
prejudice in favor Of it, and why the
combination "bread and butter" has
been used to signify the chief end OF
our labor!ous struggles to exist. The
consumption of butter is enormous, and
equals L. 100000 900 annually. No other
people use az much as we do, which is
an average OF more than half a pound
weekly for each individual, including
infants, and much more would be used
if it could be produced more cheaply.
The average yield Of butter is 100 pounds
per COW annually. If owners OF cows
would set to work to improve their stock
it would not be long till the average
produce could be doubled, the cost would
remain the same, very nearly, for 200
pounds as for 100, SO that it could be
for fifteen cents a pound and the dairy
men do az well as row. This would
enable every poor person to have his just
share and drive the bogus substitutes out
of the market.

Diseases OF swine.

Coburn's "Swine H%usbandry" has a
chapter on diseases of swine, describing
the symptoms and prescribing remedies.
Mango is neither a constitutional or a
blood disorder, but is caused by parasi-
tic insects which burrow in the skin or
by & fungoid plant which grows in the
substance OF the skin and destroys it.
Either form of the disease is extremely
contagious. 1t appears first by falling
off Of the hair; the skin ti.en becomes
dry and scurfy; then cracks and exudes
q yellowish matter, witch forms scabs
on it and itches intolerably, SO that the
animal is continually rubbing itself. The
disease effects rats, cats, dogs, and
horses, but the smaller animals, mostly,
and these frequently carry it abroad
and infect other animals. The
treatment is as follows: The animal
should be washed with warm water
and soap and the skin com
p!etely cleaned and softened. A corr
cob is an excellent thing to use to rub
and cleanse and soften the skin. As
soon as the skfn is wiped dry is should
be well rubbed with the following mix.
tufe: One pint ofsweet-oil, a quarter of
a pint of kerosene oil, and two ounces
OF -four Of sulphur; the sulphur being
first rubbed with some of the oil to form
q cream. The mixture is well ahaken,

Fur ana Feather Trimmings

Ermine, which, for some inscrutable
reason, has been under a cloud for some
time past, is gradually and st ,adily COM
ing back into vogue as lining for e

or opera are made of cashmere, white,
blue or cardinal, with ermine Innings.
White cashmere, ermine lined and
edged with a wide border Of white fox,
is rich and exceedingly becoming.
Swans down is much liked as a trim
ming for cashmere in light shades for
evening dress, and comes, not only in
the well known white, but artistically
dyed in all the fashionable shades-car-
dinal, blue, cream, rose color, ETC., to
match the dress material.
Another of these feather.trimmed
dresses is very handsome and expen-
sive. The material is black LYONS vel

drapery, also of velvet forms scant pan
iers over the hips, which are bordered

full, with untrlmmed shawl points as
finish. The long basque is bordered
| with a band of these pretty feathers and
a collar and cuffs also forme /, of the

costume is of black velvet, plain, low

Art Embroidery.

The principal objects to be observed
in coloriag are, that colors shall not
clash, or destroy each others value, and
that they shall be in such just proportion
that each anG every color, shade and
tint employed shall have its full value
displayed, unless. by an effort of artistic
arrangement, one can be made to inten-
sify. or tone, or otherwise improve the
effect of another. An example will ex-
plain thls-scarlet and yellow do not
harmonize; for the yellow eclipses the
red and reduces it to an orange, Just as
the mixing ofreda and yellow paints upon
a palette produces orange. Red with
blue presents purple appearance to the
eye-a confusion of both; but scarlet OF
blue, worked upon a neutral ground,
say of gray or drab, appears in full bril-
ilancV.

The 700 delegates of The National con-

furnished interesting, if u%npala,a5le,
truths regarding cheese by professor
from Rochester. He said that cheese
vas net usually made as it should be.
1.-The fact is, we don't know how to
make cheese" One fault ofthe cheese
of commerce is that it goes on the mar
ket before it is fit for food. Ii its early
stages it is inoigestible.
Whatever good points a horse may ac-
quite through training and %develope-

that he must get his start for all this

largely on ancestry; and if this be OBJ
~jectionable there can be little hope OF
accomplishing much with the progeny.
Get a good start by breeding the best to
