1t Looks Mighty Nice on Paper.

Bill Arp says, at is a wonder to me
that everybody don't go to farming.
Lawyers and doctors have to sit about
town and play checkers, and talk
politics, and wait for somebody to
quarrel or fight, or get sick; clerks
and bOok-keepers figure and multiply
and count until they go to counting
stars, and the flies on the ceiling, and
the peas in the dish, and the flowers
on the papering; the jeweler sits by
his window all the year round, work.
ing on little wheels, and the mechanic
strikes the same kind of a lick every
day. These people do not belong to
themselves; they are all penned up
like convicts in chain-gang; they
can't take a day or an hour for recrea-
ton, for they are the servants of their
employers. There is no profession
that gives a man such freedom, such
latitude and such variety ofemplOy-
ment as farming. There's no monoto-
ny upon the farm. There's something
new every day, and the changing
work brings into action every muscle
in the human frame. We pillow and
hoe, and harrow and sow, and gather
it in at harvest time. We lcok after
the horses and cows, the pigs and
sows, and the rams and lambs, and
the chickens and the turkeys and the
geese. We cut our own wood, and
raise our own bread and meat, and
don't have to be stingy of it like city
folks. A friend who visited us not
long ago wrote back from the town
that his CRATE don't seem bigger than
the crown of his hat since he sat by
our great big friendly fireplace.

Standing at the long table in his

service rules, capacity, and the public

the applicant for Office is on the bal

bear them down, the Cleveland eye
is upon the beam to discover if it is
raised by the applying freight.

That the nation is within a half yeal

of President Cleveland's administra

sentiment has approved them. Hi'

Brittle "wood-pulp" newspapers
are more impervious to wind currents
than the thickest carpet. Three or
four layers of them with theair spaces
between, are as good non-conductors
as a plastered wall with its minute air
cracks, or as an ordinary bed spread;
and one or two placed between the
blankets are equal to an extra quilt,
to keep in the warmth of the bodies
of the sleepers.
Tackled on the beams over cellar,
a few thicknesses of newspapers are
equal to an extra floor or ceiling
placed there, in keeping the rooms
above warm. Nailed up so that they
will not be wet by rain, around the
horse and cattle stalls, or the chicken
abodes, ar any buildings occupied by
animals, human or otherwise, news
papers are warmer than the outer
board siding, rough or planed; and
they can be renewed at pleasure at no
cost, and be removed in spring for
additional ventilation. In short, the
judiciOus use of newspapers may be
made to save half the fuel in well-to-
do homes, and supply its lack to the
poverty stricken. We call thespecial
attention of benevolent societies to
this fact. Farmers may by using
newspapers save much feed otherwise
used up by the animals in keeping
warm. Eggs will be far more abund-
ant if the hens are kept warm, by
lining their winter quarters with
newspapers, and stock poultry go
through well on half the feed other
wise required.

A Lime-Kiln Obituary.

The peachstones ceased rafting
around the hall, the windows went

hushed, and Brother Gardner had a
firm hold of the platform with his
toes as he arose and began:

on his character war showing me a

"He was man who did not glib to
Gle poor wild one hand and steal from

"He nebber gin dollar to de heath,

debts in America"
"While he did not profess to be a
christian gentleman, he remembered
dat only one seat belonged to him
when he trabbled."
"He made no great ado about his
honesty, yet he remembered when
and whar he borrowed a hoe"
"He did not call hisself better dan
his fellowman, and yit he had a kind
word for boy wild sore toe, an a
ton of coal for nabur wild a broken
leg"
'He felt he had a duty to do by the
church, and yit he entered a circus

Washington Letter.

There has been scarcely ripple to
break the political calm during the
past week. The bitter contests waged
in Ohio, Virginia and New York are
not felt here. This is unusual, for it
has been the habit of previous admin
istrations to throw themselves into
the midst of such contests with all
their patronage, prestige and intiu-
ence. President Cleveland has said,
however, that he will take no active
part in the State elections, and his
Cabinet have shown determination
to initiate his example. But this re-
fusal to enter the fray must not be
construed into any lack of interest in
Democratic success. 1t is the belief
of the President and his constitutional
advisers that they have work before
them of the grandest scope, and that
the cause of true Democracy in State
elections will be best promoted by the
general government in an example
of rigid attention to the work that
strictly belongs to it.
A party of District Democrats went
to the White House last week and
made a strong appeal for the appoint
ment of a fellOw-citizen to the Office
of Recorder of Deeds in the place of
Fred Douglass. They had no preju-
dice against Mr.. Douglass on account
of his color, but he was one of the
most offensive partisans they ever sat
eyes upon and he ought to go. The
gentleman recommended for the place
was of old and aristocratic connec-
tons, and with considerable influence
in Virginia and universally popular
in the District. He was every way
qualified and would perform the du-
ties in such manner as would do
honor to the President and himself.
Mr.. Cleveland is familiar with this
speech and hears it several times
every day. He listened patiently for
awhile, then got out of his chair,
pushed his big hands way down into
his pockets, and wandering toward
the library windows, looked down
over the Potomac flats in an abstract
ed manner. Pretty soon he turned
and asked impulsively:
"You think there ought to be a
change in the Office ?"
"Yes," replied the chorus.
every well; give me the name of
a cOlored man competent to fill it
and I'll appoint him today"
The silence that followed was pain
full. The President returned to his
desk and commenced reading some
letters that lay before him. The
delegation" consulted it was easy
to see that their anxiety about q
change was quenched, and explaining
to the President that they were not
prepared to recommend any colored
man that evening, filed out Of the
library and down the stairs.

A Song of Gratitde.
den times Bethesda's pool

In olden times Bethesda's pool
Was famed for healing all diseases
Once plunged beneath its waters cool,
Each evil, stain and sickness ceases.
In modern days we find a cure,
OF worth as rare, as much deserving;
A remedy safe, quick and sure,
DR.. RichmOnd's Samaritan Nervine.
For Epilepsy, Spasms, Fever, Collie, Cramps,
Coughs, Colds, or any kind of Phthysic,
Its merits as leader stamps
1t far abOve'all other physics.
1t goes at once right to the spot
Where turks the danger, never swerving,
In all the world perhaps there's not
A cure like DR.. RichmonG's Nervine.
AS in the blood diseases lie
Each artery, each vein, each curve in;
There's nothing makes i'll humor fly,
Like the Samaritan Nervine.
For old or young, for rich or poor,
Whatever class of life you serve in,
To health wide open is the door,
From the Samaritan Nervine.
Then do you value strength and health,
And think these blessings worth presery-
ing,
Better than all Golconda's wealth.
Is DR.. Richmond's Samaritan Nervine.

Every farmer who has an old rotten
straw pile should clean it up and haul
the worthless part out on the wheat
fields, the fine and rotten portion to
be spread on the surface and the
coarser part to be plowed under.
1t is estimated that the investment
in cattle ranches in the Western States
and Territories now amount to one
hundred million dollars, where TWEEN
ty years ago the amount so invested
did not exceed one million.

100000 bushels thisyear over the crop
of 1884. These States have reported a
large acreage planted in corn, where
wheat was destroyed last winter.
This report does not include any State

are termed the Middle States. The
principal increase was from Ohio,
Indiana, and Illinois, Wisconsin
