WISE WORDS.


The certain way to be cheated is to
fancy ones self more cunning than
others.
Help somebody worse off than your-
self, and you will find you are better off
than you fancicd.
Every man who observes vigilant1y,
and resolves steadfastly, grows uncon-
sciously into genius.
The men who do things naturally,
slowly, deliberately, are the men who
oftenest succeed in life.
Love is the most terrible, and also the
most generous of the passions; it is the
only one that includes it its dreams the
happiness of some one else.
Perfection does not exist; to under
stand it is the triumph of human inteli-
gence; to desire to possess it is the most
dangerous kind of madness.
A good man is the best friend, and
therefore is first to be chosen, longest to
be retained, and indeed, never to be
parted with, unless he ceases to be that
for which he was chosen.
The roses of pleasure seldom last long
eusugh to adorn the brow Of those who
pluck them, and they are only roses
which do not retain their sweetness after
thay have lost their beauty.
Judge no one by his relations, what
over criticism you may pass mon his
companions Relations, like features,
are thrust upon us; companions, like
clothes, are more or less our own selec-
ton.
The mind should be accustomed to
make wise reflections, and draw curious
conclusions, as it goes along; the hab-
hude of which makes Pliny the younger
AFT m that he never read book but he
drew some profit from it.
Tne most agreeable of all companions
is simple, frank man, with ut any high
pretentlons to any oppressive greatness !;
one who loves life and understands the
use of it; obliging, alike at all hours;
above all, of golden temper; and stead
fast as an anchor. For such one we
gladly exchange the greatest geuius, the
most brilliant wit, the profoundest
thinker.

Reading in Total DARKNESS.

Though NJ Cheyrcul, the veteran
French chemist, has completed his hun
dredth year, he had an experience a day
or two ago of which il is safe to say he
would search his souvenirs in vain for a
parallel. He rece we'd Wit ia his lab
oratory from the members of the Chi
nese Mission in Paris and the converse
ton naturally rned on the sub ect. of

spent his life in investigating, one of the
party astonished him by declaring that
he could see perfectly without light, and
he actually read some pages of book in
the dark NJ. ChevreA doubtless know
that predecessor of his own, Jerome
Cardan, famous savant of the sixteenth
century, was credited with the same
power. And the younger Scaliger as
sures us that when he awoke from his
brief slumbers he was able to read in the
dark without lighting his lamp. The
younger Scaliger was rather given to
Boosting; and this statement of his has
usually been classed with that of his en-
inent contemposa and pathological
rival, the learned Buchanan, who
claimed to have discovered key to the
language of the angelic choir; but the
feat Of the living Chinese goes some way
to establish the gcnuineness Of this par
ticular pretension Of the dead Grecian.

Meandering.

A city girl writes: ''It is fond
dream of mine to become farmers wife,
and meandear with him down life s
flowery pathway" All, yes, that is a
nice thing to dream about. but when you
have lived on the farm and followed this
meandering business for month or so,
you will discover wide chasm between
the dream and the reality. You will
think of this about the time your hus-
band meauders off and leaves you with
out wood, and you have to meander up
and down the lane pulling splinters of
the fence with which to cook dinner.
And when you meander around in the
wet clover in search of the cows, you
VIII have dim perception that fond
dreams do not always pan out hundred
cents on the dollar, and that there are
several meanderings in farm life that
are not listed in the dreaming category.
The meandering business on the farm
is not what it is cracked up to be-

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Rotation of Crops.

The rotation best adapted to any one
farm will depend much on the farm, the
locality and the markets. The one
adopted by Professor Sanborn on the col
lege farm at Columbia, Mo-, will proba-
bly, suit as large numberas any that can
be adopted. He begins, say. with a
timothy sod. Manures and plows in the
fall for corn in the spring. The corn is
cut early and taken from the land as soon
as cured, the land plowed, and in the
spring sowed to oats and seeded with
clover. The oats are moved early for
hay, thus giving the clover a chance to
come on and make second crop for hay.
The first crop of clover the next season is
cut for hay, but if the land needs improv-
ing the second crop is plowed under and
wheat sowed. If the land is in good
heart it can be cut for hay or saved for
seed. With the wheat is sowed timothy,
which is allowed to remain two years.
blowing it up in the fall of the second
year to plant to corn again the next
spring, thus bringing us back to the be-
ginning of the rotation again. This is
six years. rotation, and in the six years
one gets seven crops, or if he saves the
second crop of clover he gets eight. The
land is MANFRED every six years. Under
such management, instead of the land
becoming exhausted, it will become
stronger and more fertile Chicago

We have so often seen fatal results follow
the declaration that it can be cured, that we
have unconscionsly settled down in the belief
that this disease must necessarily prove fatal.
1t is true that occasionally a community
, has witnessed an isolated case of what may
appropriately be termed spontaneous recov-
cry, but to what combination Of favorable
circumstances this result was due none have
hitherto been found able to determine.
We have now the gratifying fact to an
nounce that the process by which nature eff
fects this wonderful cuange is no longer a
mystery to lhe medical profession. and that
the changes brouhgt about in the system un-
der favorable circumstances by extriusic
, causes may be made as certainly ard m.re
expeditiously by the use Of the proper remedy.
In other words, nature is initiated and as
sisted
Tuberculous matter is nothing more or less
than nourishment imperfectly organized.
, Now, if we can procure the organization of
this food material so that through the pro-
cess of elective affinity it may take its place
in the system. we can cure the disease. This
is lust what Piso's Cure for Consumption
does. 1t arrests at once the progress of the
disease by preventing the further supply Of
tuberculOus matter, for while the system is
under its influence all nourishment is organ
lied and assimilated. Itthus controls cough,
expectoration, night-sweats, hectic fever, and
all other characteristic SYMPTOMS of Con-
sumption.
Many physicians are now using this medi-
cine, and all write that it comes fully up to
its recommendations and makes Consump-
ton one Of the diseases they can readily cure.
The forming stage of a disease is always the
most suspicious for treatment. This fact
should induce persons to resort to the use of
Piso's Cure when the cough is first noticed,
whether it has a consumptive diathesis for
its cause or not, for this remedy cures all
kinds of coughs with unequaled facility and
promptness. In coughs from a simple cold,
two or three doses Of the incidence have been
found sufficient to remove the trouble. So
in all diseases Of the throat and lungs, with
symptoms Stimulating those Of Consumption,
Piso's Cure is the only infallible remedy
The following letter recommending Piso's
Cure for Consumption, is fair sample OF
the certificates received daily by the proprie-
tor Of this medicine:

oil SuDsO1ling. Results from last season S
experiment in manuring did not show
any material increase in the yield either
of grain or stalks from the application of
barnyard manure. This result is in
harmony with previous experiments. In
Professor Shelton's experience manure
made during the winter months and
hauled on the field the following spring
is rarely of much benefit to crops grown
the first year after such application. The
second and third years, however, have
generally shown very decidedly thu ben
eticial results of dressing of barnyard
manure. The true policy of Kansas
farmers. Professor Shelton says, sis to
maintain the condition of the farm by
ludicious cropping, thorough cultivation
and pasturing, SO that general manuring
may be avoided and the annual yield of
manure applied to particular crops and
easily accessible fields"
The results from plats thickly seeded
was yield of seventy bushels of shelled
corn and 2.12 tons of stalks per acre, a
gain, as compared with the adjacent
plats plowed in the ordinary way, of
sixteen bushels of corn and one-half ton
of fodder. While the quantity of fod-
der was improved by thick seeding, the
quality of the corn by the same course
was injured The cars of corn obtained
from the thick-seeded plats were gen
orally small, though sound, and the pro-
portion of ''nubbins" to sound ears was
great. Nevertheless, this plan of thick
seeding is well worth the attention of
that large number of Kansasfarmersw who
lind themselves each year obliged to
look to unusual sources to supplement
their ordinary fodder supply.
Fodder obtained by the ordinary
methods of field culture is a coarse and
not very valuable ed. but corn thickly
planted, as in these experimental plats.
Of necessity grows fine; the proportion
Of stems to leaves and foliage is greatly
reduced; on this acc unit it may be cas- ly
harvested and stored, while the waste in
feeding. from its SUI erior quality, is
very Ii hit. Such fodder. when freed
from the corn, is excellent for nearly all
purposes for which ordinary hay is used,
but when fed unhusked directly from
the feed-cutter, it is an unsurpassed
feed for cattle in course of preparation
for the shambles.--Neto York World.
