A MIDNIGHT DUEL.

II remember as though it we're yer
terday The march Of Hills corps along
the winding Shenandoah up to the
famous Luray Gap. When the camp
was pitched the soldiers lost no time in
making their way to the surrounding
cottages. At one Of these cottages the
belle of the valley reigned supreme.
while several southern soldiers Wed with
each other in paying homage to the
queen Among others were two sol
diers--one from Georgia and the other
from Mississippi-who we're specially
energetic in their attentions, and so
marked had this become that those pres
ent watched the play With constantly
increasing interest, fully believing that
they both exhibited case of love at
first sight.
1.-THE Georgian seemed to have the
lead on the Mississippian. and when the
dancers were called to take their places
he led the belle of the valley to place
in the set. AT this point the Mississp-
plan approached the couple and was
heard to claim the lady's hand for the
dance. An alteration ensued, but both
we're cool, brave soldiers--two of the
best shots in the army-wbo did not be-
lieve in war of words. SO it was
ended by the Georgian dancing with the
lady, and the significant remark of the
Mississippian that 4 will see you after
this SET
when the dance was over the Geor-
gian sought the Mississippian, and to-
gether they each called friend from
the crowd and departed When outside
both claimed that an insult had been
passed, which could only be wiped out
in the blood of the other, and that a
duel to the death should be arranged at
once. A full moon was just appearing
above the tops of the surrounding forest,
and tell you this talk of blood in the
silence Of the night was anything but
pleasant.
"No argument, however, would avail
with these men, so it was arranged that
the duel should take place on top of the
Blue Ridge, on the road that passes
through the gap ), that the weapons be
pistols at fifteen PAGES, and to fire at the
words Zone. two, three" firing TO con.
tinuc until one or both were dead. The
point was reached, the ground meas
ured off, and the men took their position
without tremor. The moon shed its
pale light down on scene never TO be
forgotten. A moment or two, and the
silence was broken by the signal
One, two, three AT the word
three, the report of two pistols rang
out on the midnight air. but the princi-
pals maintained their respective posi-
tioDs. The Georgian's left arm was seen
to drop closer TO the side, but the Mis-
sissippian was mmovable, and still held
his pistol to the front Again II pistol
shot was heard coming from the Geor.
gian, and the Mississippian still held his
position, butdid not fire. The Georgian
pI otested that he did not come there to
murder him, but no answer was returned.
The Mississippian's second approached
his principal and found him dead, shot
through the eye on the first discharge
of the weapons. Death, it seemed, had
been instantaneous, so much so rs not
even 10 disturb his equilibrium.

She Found What She Wanted.

A pretty young woman with n little

stranger, who had struck up an acquaint-
ance through the usual aud always con-

The stranger did all the talking. He
was one Of those men who think they
know everything, but only rarely get a
good chance TO tell it. The lady an
swercd only in monosyllables. The little
girl listened patiently and demurely for
u time, and then began to fidget around
in her seat. Finally, as the stranger
stopped for breath, she said:
Mamma, you've found one, aint

"What, my dear p
why, don't you remember what you
told papa when he said you'd be lone
some on the cars You said you'd tind

the stranger suddenly thought he had

Good seed, that you have grown
yourself, and has Il pedigree, the Ion
ger the better, or has been bought ofa
commercial scotsman, with the good
sense to test his seeds before he sells
them, is essential to the maximum
crops. If your soil is all right and the
fertilizers abundant, you do not get
the full reward for labor, without the
best seed. The vitality of seed, It's
power to produce its own kind, or
something lii better, depends up
on the circumstances under which it
is grown. Heredity has as much to
do with seeds RS with animals. If the
farmer understands this, and will
watch over the growth and purity Of
the seeds for his crops, well and good.
But very many of our farmers cannot
or will not do this. Charlock is among
their oats, thistles among their wheat
daises and white weed among their
grass seed. Their corn is choked with
weeds, and runs to nubbins, or Is im-
perfectly ripened, and their vegeta-
BILE garden seeds are SO mixed that the
varities fail to come true to name, or
are nameless. They have no pride in
garden products, and do not exhibit
at the fairs. Now is the. time to
remedy these slovenly habits, and to
turn over new leaf with the new year.

FARM NOTES.
A GUARDIAN CROP.

A fortunate characteristics of the
clover plant il, its continuous growth
throughout the whole season.
1t is a well-established fact. that the
exceedingly valuable and soluble COM
pounds of nitrogen are most album
dainty formed in the soil during the
hot months of midsummer and early
autumn. At this time the creal crops
are harvested, with the exception of
corn. If the field is bare, there is no
doubt that much fertility is lost when
ever rain comes to wash the soil of
its richness. On the other hand,
clover tiourishes ut this. season, and
guards the soil against loss. A large
part of the fertility is stored up in the
leaves and stems, and goes into the
hay barn, hut an equal portion has
remained in AMI on the soil rs roots
and stuhble, and will become plant
food for the next crop, through the
slow processes of decay. In other
words the clover plnnt has transg
fornl"d large quantity Of fertility
from very saINhie condition, into n
stable state, readily held by the leachy
soil. The compounds of nitrogen, pot
ash, and phosph"ric acid, that have
been reHloYed IN the hay, should find
their way hack to the barn-yarl ma
nure. The long continued expert
ments at Rothamsted, to which faF=

three times rs much nitrogen for its
growth, as does q crop OF wheat. In
the face of this, the same experiments

TO KEEP CELLARS FROM EREEzINa
Scientific American: A cheap and

ly near the freezing point is to set one
or more common kerosene lamps on
the cellar bottom during the day time
when not wanted for lighting the

Twenty-Five ccnts' worth OF kerosene

of heat, and in many cases it would
be the cheapest means for keeping a
