A Bad Break.

Sam Peterby, merchant from the interior,
while attending the Mardi Gras festivities at
Galveston, united business with pleasure by
purchasing bill of goods from prominent
firm. He was very politely received, and
one of the proprietors showed him over the
immense store, On reaching the fourth floor
the customer perceived a speaking tube on
the wall, the first thing of the kind he had
ever seen.
"What is that p he asked.
ooh, that is speaking tube; it is great
convenience. We can converse with clerks
on the first floor without the trouble of going
down stairs"
Can they hear what you say through
that? ?" asked the visitor.
Certainly and they can reply at the same
time"
"You don't say so |" exclaimed the visitor
MAY talk through it?"
Certainly" was the reply.
The visitor put his mouth to the speaking
tube and asked:
"Are Sam Peterbys goods packed up yet ?"
The people in the office must have supposed
it was somebody else speaking, for moment
later the distinct reply came back:
mo. We have not packed them yet. We
are waiting for telegram from his town.
We believe he is "a slippery cuss."

Managing the Corn Crop.

| Not many years ago corn fields were fur
rowed out and planted without any previous
| narrowing or rolling, while now it is consid-
| cred essential to put the land into the finest
condition before planting. This is only one
of many improvements in the method of
managing the crop which are grouped into a
readable article by Waldo E. F. Brown in
the Indiana Farmer: Planting near the
surface instead of in the bottom of the fur
row, is greater improvement still. If the
marking is done with sled having bevel-
ed runner, the land should be about level
after the corn is covered
A third point in which there has been de-
cided Improvement is in getting close to the
corn at first working. Many of our best
| corn-growers begin to work their corn before
| It'll up by going over it with harrow, and
ifthe weather is favorable it is an excellent
plan.
| But the greatest improvement ever made
in implements for working corn was the
adoption of tenders to keep from covering
the young corn and by means of which we
can plow as close as we wish To the corn
when it is but two inches high. Formerly
corn was often plowed three times before
the plow could be run within six inches OF
it or any loose earth put to the hill. Now,
at the very first blowing, as soon as the
corn can be seen in the row, the plow or
cultivator can be run within two or three
inches of the plant, and the tenders so ar.
ranged that little mellow Garth Sits TO the
roots the corn.
What is called the double bar pillow, with
rolling cutters, is now preferred for the first
blowing to any other implement. This is
two light bur plows fastened together with
wooden bars, both front and rear, and each
pillow furnish ed with rolling cutter, and
used with two horses 80 as to turn the earth
from both sides of row of corn at once.
The advantages of using it are first, that it
leaves the corn on narrow ridge which
quickly warns through, for the cutters not
only protect the corn from being covered up,
but also loosen and crack the ridge, so as to
admit air and warmth; and second, that the
soil between the rows is thrown up in q
sharp ridge, so that it does not pack, and,
when worked back to the corn with the cul-
tivator, crumbles fine and mellow, and must
be free from weeds.
Mr. Brown concludes as follows: II tried
the experiment two years in succession on
adjoining plots of level culture with this

Beware of the person whose fingers turn
backward. He is unjust, suu.io, ingenious,
and the neatcr his fingers seem to be the more
mischievous is he, and the greater enemy to

Fingers which cling to each other, denote
a changeabe character.
Long and large fingers betoken liberality,

Fingers too short, with thick ends and fat

Fingers that stand apart from each other,
poverty, wretchedness, and much talk about

Nerveless fingers denote want of charac-
