No TIME LIKE TINE PRESENT.

Says a Des Moines, Iowa, des-
patch of April 2Sth; A wedding,
under unusual and quite romantic
circumstances, occurred in this city
Yesterday. The suddenly accepted
groom is Loren +. Bishop, good
looding young man, who keeps a
bakery in East Des Moines. Yes
terday Miss Mary Shoemaker, n
pretty miss with merry laugh and
pretty figure that is the perfection
of grace, came into Mr.. Bishops
bakery to buy some fresh rolls, and
she looked ut the young baker in
such an irresistible way that he was
quite beside himself with admira-
ton. "NIiss Shoemaker" said he,
"you look so pretty that l have half
mind to go right with you and get
married." .r.a. t ....
~ never refuse dare" said the
pretty girl; with flushing cheeks and
eyes that sparkled with q roguish
light. -
"Well, shall go and get my coat
and 90 and get license?"
IF you want to young man, and
I'll so with you, too"
The young mans face sobered
down little, but he went and got
his coat.
"Do you still want to CO." he
gently inquired.
"Why, thought it was you that
wanted to CO. said the maiden,
hesitatingly.
"Well l do, but l thought may
be you would give it up" aaag
''If that's all, We'll go,' was the
reply.
Loren was caught and he had the
good sense to see it. They went to
the County Clerk and got license,
and before the sunset they were
married.
Marry in haste, repent at leisure
and then get divorce for $500?

Canning Without Cans.

The published results of Tyndall's expert
ment fell under the eye Of DR.. Chase of Thorn
aston, Ne. At his suggestion, Mrs. Chase
put up several gallons of Damson plums in
stone pots with but little sugar, the jars be-
ing only covered with cotton batting. The
piums kept perfectly, until opened one or
two years afterward. Drections-use crooks,
stone butter jars, or any other convenient
dishes. Prepare and cook the fruit precise
ly as for canning in glass jars; fill your
dishes with the fruit while it is yet hot, and
Immediately cover with cotton batting
securely tied on. Remember that all putre-
faction is caused by the invisible creatures
in the air. Cooking the fruit expels ali
these and as they cannot pass through cot
ton batting, the fruit thus protected will
keep an indefinite period. The writer of
this has kept berries, cherries, plums and
many other kinds of fruit for two years
with no cover save batting on the
jars.

EoOnomizing Time on the Farm.

How to use time TO the best advantage in
the busy season Of the year,is what every far
mer should study well. II is not enough that
be works hard all day long, scarcely taking
time 10 eat his meals, if his work is not
done right, in the right time and in the right
way. Doing the work in the right time will
save much unnecessary labor, BY keeping
all kinds Of farm implements read, for use
whenever needed; keeping fences up so as
not to be troubled with runaway cattle; but
especially in the raising Of crops it is neees-
sary to be ia time, both in seeding and
harvesting, and keeping the weeds down
from the spring Of the year, so as not to lei
them get start. or they viii be hard 10
conquer later IN the season.
To DO things in the right way includes
great deal, and only the outlines can be
given In short article like this. The FIRST
Is 10 do enc thing al a time and do il
thoroughly, not be shifting from one work
to another, for in this way much time is lost.
One thing which is much overlooked is to
have every thing handy have all kinds Of
feed close By where ii is TO be fed; have
the corn-crio near to the hog pasture, the
hay cisse to the barn or stable, and water
both for cattle and house use near at hand,
for 10 this way il viii not take more than
half the time to do chores as twill if every
thing that is fed must be carried. even If not
thought 10 be far. |, i. surprising how
much time will be walked away for nothing
"a the course Of a year. Order should be
strictly observed in everything, in having
a place for all kinds OF tools. and having
them in their place when not used. While
no method can be mechanically followed in
dividing Up the labor on the farm, stiiI it
can be arranged by establishing certain
rules so as to save much time In this way
more can be done in ten hours work than
10 fourteen hours where no order IS fol-
lowed therefore il 4. necessary to plan
vel before commencing on all kinds Of
work EermaRto,rH Telegraph.

AN EXCITING FISH STORY.
How a st. Lawrence MuRcalonge was
Caught by Two New Workers.
From the Neso York Sun Aug.I.


Caught by Two New Workers.
From the Neao York SIN Aug.l l.
Two gentlemen sat down yesterday to a
dinner in leading uptown hotel where
the feature of the menu consisted of a
muscalonge weighing twenty pounds,
caught by Mr.. Powell, a merchant of this
city, and companion on the st. Lawrence
river, five miles from Rockville, Ont.
The fish was caught by trolling. A strong
line was used, and, after circling about
for short time, huge fish
leaped Oat of the water, and, diving
down again, savagely grabbed the spoon
The hooks suspended from it took hold
firmly in the lower jaw of the fish, and
then began struggle between the mon
ster and his captOrs. The gamy fish went
down the river like a race horse for
hundred yards or more, and then de-
scriDing a seml-circle, sped in the OppO-
site direction. Plenty of line was given
him for time, and then the fishermen be-
gan 20 haul in carefully until they got
the fish near the boat, but they found
then that they could not land him with
out upsetting the craft.
Meantime a thTong OF picnicers on the
islands hard by had come to the shore and
were eXcitedly yelling TO the spOrtsmen to
be cautious and not attempt to drag the
savage monster into the boat. A river
steamer loaded with passengers came
along and blew her whistle, while the peo-
pie on board cheered Justify at the furious
lashiDgs Of the fish. A little more line
was given to the big fish, and then, while
one man held on to the prize the other
pulled for dear life toward the American
shore. The fish resented this by frequent
plunges out of water, but the strong hooks
kept their hold, and his efforts only served
to mingle his blood with the water which
he Iashed into foam.
The boat was at last run high up on to
the shore, and at the same moment Mr.
Powell, grasping the line firmly with both
hands, drew the fish on land, amid the
cheers and wells of the picnickers and the
people on the steamer. But the struggle
was not yet ended. The fish floundered
and Topped about with the line entangled
about it, while its oaptOrs danced around
and endeaVOred to get hold of it. Mr..
Powell finally got in blow on the head
with the foot rest of the boat, and the
game fellow Topped once more, was
struck again, and then lay still.
Both men were almost exhausted, haY-
ing fought for their prize for an hour and
a half. The tish was carefully packed in
ice and shipped to this city. There was
not a dish large enough at the hotel to
hold the big fellow, and a clean board,
covered with linen, was provided tor II,
and in that shape it was served and great
ly relished by the dinner party.
