Men appeared in Elizabeth's time in
ruffs, plated, and plated as daintily
as any dame; they carried fans and
pocket glasses by which to arrange any
occasional disorder in their dress. Then
too, they carried muffs, and revived a
fashion of wearing earrings. But lest
it should seem that this arraignment of
men is, piece by piece, taking from our
forefathers all title to our respect, it
should be mentioned that to men origi-
nally belonged the right to wear ruffs
by virtue of original ownership. 1t
was only when ladies invaded mascu-
line privileges, and took to ruffs, that
competition began, in which each sex
strove to outdo the other in extrava-
gance, and the heads of people appeared
as if borne on linen trenchers. Ear
rings. too, were worn by men before
the conquest. This cannot be held to
exonerate men from blame nor divert
us from the conclusion that at certain
periods men have generally adopted and
unseemly display and been guilty of an
effeminate refinement in dress.
1t is not so much to the discredit Of
Englishmen that they wore petticoats
and stomachers in early days, when
those were recognized parts of male
costume, as it is to the disgrace Of their
descendants who took up the wearing
of fripperies and tineries proper to wo-
men-the dissolute cavaliers who, after
the restoration, pranked themselves out
in laces and ribbons and feathers and
flowing curls, or the cravated ant
bewigged dandies and maccaronies ol
the succeeding reigns, who, with theil
garnished coats, laced cuffs, silk
breeches, clocked stockings and
buckled shoes we're at least as fine and
certainly no less depraved than theil
fathers. 1t is well that masculine
dress has now distinct lines of demar
cation, and has become generally darl
and somber in color, so that, although
"mashers" and "dudes'' perpetuatt
effeminacy in men they have not at leas
the advantages which gaudy apparel
and common garments might give
them in parading the degenerate dain
tiness of which they seem so unworth
lily vain.

There is on many farms more or les
of ground so rocky that 1t will not re-
pay the expense of cultivation, and all
such spots should be planted with trees.
These may be got out of the wood -
what would be cheaper .stsler, and
probably much T-1ro e.lectual, the seeds
60 VARIOUS kinds OF trees could be sOwn
initiating as nearly as possible the nat
ural processes which have produced all
the forests of the country. The seed
Of the different trees should be gather
ed in the woods just at the time they
fall naturally, and they should be imme-
diately planted in little shallow holes
among the stones, and covered with a
little earth. There the rains of autumn,
the snow Of winter, and the sunshine
of spring would bring up crop of
young tlv, which should be fenced in
from cattle ali left to themselves. They
would require no labor after the first
sowing and fencing, except ubsequent
thinning out from year to year of those
that are too crowded, or @ost valuable
for economic purposes. If hickory nuts,
black walnuts, butternuts, chestnuts,
and the seeds Of sugar plums, pines and
spruces were any of them or all of them
sown here and there over the place in
tended for grove, the most valuable
kinds and those that thrive best could
be ultimately left to become great trees.
After ten years, the annual thinning of
this grove for firewood. fence, hoop
poles, railroad ties, ETC., would probably
make 1t as valuable part of the farm
as any other; and when the black wal
nut and butternut trees become large
enough to be sold to cabinet makers the
value of the grove would be very great
The present race of farmers may say
they would not live to see the tree be-
come fit for the cabinet makers; but
none the less would the growth of thai
grove increase the value Of the faru
every year, and that whether the Owuel
sold it or left it to his children.

How to Defy Old Ago.

1t has been generally believed for
long time that sooner or later the sci
entists would discover the secret of
indefinitely prolonging human life.
Why people should cease to be young
in appearance and feeling when, in
reality, they are young in years, and
why they should grow old, fall into the
sere and yellow leaf and shuttle off this
mortal coil just when they are begin
ming to enjoy life, are mysteries of
tantalizing and yet fascinating charac-
ter. But general reflections are not in
order in discussing matter of such
vital interest. The world win learn
with breathless interest that the scien-
fists have at last succeeded in agreeing
upon course of treatment which,
they think, will have the effect of sus-
pending the encroachments of old age.
The fact having been noted that, after
passing middle life the process of ossi-
fcation becomes markedly developed
until it ushers in senile deerepitude, it
has occurred to our scientific friends
that the arrest of this ossitic tendency
would naturally ward off or delay the
coming of old age. To make it still
plalner suppose we put it in this way:
Old age, instead of being an accumula-
tion of years, is simply a slow but
steady accumulation Of calcareous
matter in the system. The preven-
ton of the deposit in any considerable
quantity of this calcareous matter is a
bar to the approach of the physical and
mental decline called old age. 1t would
be interesting to follow these scientists
step by step in their investigations and
discoveries, but within the limits of
this brief article we have barely space
for their conclusions, The main point
is the method recommended for the
prevention of calcareous accumulations.
Of course this is a matter of diet. We
must use bread in moderation, fruit in
abundance, fish, poultry, young NUT
ton and veal. heterogeneous food must
be avoided. The next thing is to drink
several glasses of distilled water con-
tanning ten or fifteen drops of diluted
phosphoric acid every day. This has
the effect of dissolying any calcareous
matter in the system. Believers in the
Malthusian theory will probably view
this discovery with disapprobation, and
it is not to be denied that the effect
will be to augment our population. To
some extent it will create revolution
in the business world. If our middle
aged men go to dosing themselves with
distilled water and phosphoric acid in
stead Of ''red eye," there is no telling
how long they will last, and their
refusal to be laid on the shelf will de-
lay the progress of our young men, or
make them push forward with redoub.
led energy. The future experiments
of the scientists in their tussle with CID
Father Time will be watched with in
tense interest, as the result intimately
concerns us all.

James one day, when hunting, rode
on before his dogs and huntsmen to seek
for luncheon. He rode up to the inn at
Maidenhead quite ravenous. He rolled
himself off his horse and shouted for
the landlord. Beef and ale-a pasty-
anythingl The landlord, careless Of stray
guests, shrugged his shoulders. There
was nothing ready but one roast, and
the worshlpful Vicar Of Bray and his
curate were already busy at that. Per-
haps they might as favor allow him to
join them. King James caught at the
offer, strobe upstairs, knocked at the
door and asked permission. The vicar
churlishly scowled up from his full and
smoking platter. The curate jovial and
hearty, begged James to be seated. The
king sat down and piled a good knife
and fork. He tossed off his ale; he
told racy stories; he made both his re-
luctant and his willing host roar with
laughter. At last there came the nlau-
vais quart d'heure of Rabelais-the bill
arrived. The curate put down his
money with careless frankness' the vicar
paid his bill gloomily; but the luckless
guest could not pay at all. Eh, mon,
he'd left his purse behind him in his
other breeksl The vicar saw no joke in
this matter, and fatty refused to pay
for the suspicious stranger, The happy
and guileless curate expressed his plea
sure in being able to make some return
for the amusement he had received, and
paid the strangers share. Then the
three men went out on to the balcony.
A huntsman came riding up, and, see
ing the King, leaped off his horse and
went down upon one knee in the street.
The sullen vicar threw himself aU the
feet of James and implored forgiveness,
to which King James replied: II shall
not turn you out of your living; you
shall remain Vicar of Bray; but 1 shall
make my good friend the curate Can
on of Windsor, whence he will be able
to look down upon you and your vicar
age. -

The manner In which we often see
trees hacked and cut, with long stubs
left at the base of the branches cut off,
and strips of bark peeled down from the
place where they we're removed, midi
Gates lack of intelligence or care, or
both, on the part of the operator. The
man who has the care of an orchard
from the start can give no valid excuse
for having badly-shaped trees, SO far as
pruning can control them. A fruiterer
should be able, as he stands by his
young tree, to look into his future and
mentally see that tree when grown to
large size, and to judge of the effect
that every branch he leaves on it will
have on the shape and balance of the
head. Every limb not needed to COM
plete the symmetry and balance Of the
head should be rubbed off with the
hand as soon as it appears. A forked
tree should not be suffered to live. 1t is
an irBufferable nuisance. If one branch
cannot be cut off and the other used for
the stem Of the tree, then let both be
removed and a vigorous sprout be select
ed from those that start and trained for
trunk forming head at the proper
height. But trees are often required to
be pruned after having reached a consi'
derable size. In that case two or three
general principles should be kept in
view. One is that a perfect balance
should always be maintained in number,
weight and extent of the branches ovel
the base Of the trunk Of the tree, An.
other is that the centre of the head
should always be kept free and open tC
access of both air and sunlight. Fruit
that grows entirely in the shade is
neither so highly colored nor so finely
favored as that which has had the ben
eft of sunlight. In pruning a large
tree the operator should begin at the
centre and prune outward. ALI branches
not needed to make a well-balanceC
head, with branches evenly distributed
must go. The branches left should b,
so far apart that even when grown larg'
they may not interfere by rubbing o
chatting. The style Of growth Of tire,
is to be taken into account in pruning
so that the shape Of the tree may b
properly regulated and controlled. 1
The tree is a spreading grower, the lowe
and outside branches should be cut il
preference to the upper or inside branch
es; but if 1t be very upright grower
then the reverse course is to be followed
Wherever gaps or vacancies occur tn
surrounding branches may be cut bacl
to buds or branches pointing in tn
direction of such vacancy. By givini
attention to these principles it is no
difficult to so control the form of tn
tree as to have well-balanced, shapel,
tree that will carry heavy crops withoQ
the danger OF splitting to pieces o
tumbling out by the roots, as is too fire
quently the case with ill shaped an
badly balanced trees.
