PROFIT IN PIGS.
How They May Be Used to Enrich the
 Soil of the Farm.

How They May Be Used to Enrich the
 Soil of the Farm.
 That pigs are not made more profit able on the farm is not so much the fault of the p 'gs as the owner. Shut up in the barn-yard, or in some close pen or yard, the pig is expensive, for it must be fed all it will eat, and it must be waited on. As time is money, the &C., count runs up, and then the food is all more or less costly. These facts form the basis for the head of this short eX- hortation.
 If farmers would calculate, more es- pecially about the pigs, they would have a great deal less trouble and more money. They forget that p gs will eat grass, aye, are fond of it, and actually Yearn for it. When only three weeks old, they will eat it, and it does them good. Now the thing is to have place to turn the pigs to eat the grass. Where shall this be? Anywhere, provided there is fence to keep them in. What shall the fence be? Any thing. if it is tight Pigs don't iump-they crawl through. Height is not the question, but tightness. A stone wall is good, so is board fence; one made of two boards and two twisted wires is capital; all wires will do, but not more than four inches apart, with posts every six feet; rails are good if there are no holes; an old, broken down wall will do leveled up and a barbed wire stretched along the top, just where the hogs head would come if he tried to climb over it. Such fence has kept hogs in at Kirby Homestead for two ye; rs.
 A ring well put in in the spring will last all summer, and then there will be no trouble about roofing. My text is Pig Uses" Pigs should be used to enrich the farm, and the place to dc this is in the field. They may have a pasture by themselves. or be put into next years prospective corntield, or even in the meadow. I keep pigs all over, and the next year the result is seen in the early and strong growing blades of grass, and in good crop when corn and grains are raised. No man can afford to keep pigs beyond the extent of slops, when shut up in barn. yard or close pen; but any man can afford to keep pigs, if he VII use the means he may, and at the same tme his enterprise may cause his pigs to be factors for increased profit Let the D gs out to grass - Colonel r. 2. Curtis, m RHTnL NelU Yorker.

Curing Stammering Children.

An excellent and humane arrange ment has been introduced into the ele- mentary schools of Brunswick. All the children who are found to stammer or stutter are examined by specialist physician, Dr. Berkham, who reports upon the cause and degree of their in- firmity. They are then arranged in dis tinct classes, apart from the other scholars. where the lessons are given by teachers from the deaf and dumb school. Four such classes were formed last year, with an average of ten scholars in each class. After years patient and useful training, most of the chil- dren were declared to be completely cured of the malady, while an improve ment was reported in the speech of all of them. Dr, Berkham says that the malady occurs far more frequently among poor families than among the well-to-do, and that unless it is dealt with in the public schools, there is small likelihood of the sufferers being healed in later years.-N F.

THEY WILL DRINK.
An Illicit Distillery Discovered in the Fat
 ton County (Georgia) Ja l.
Atlanta Constitution.l

TAtlanta Constitution.1
 An illicit distillery is being run in Full ton County jail. It is a rude get-up, but it furnishes corn whisky for three prison- CTS. A reporter was in the jail the other day and while rambling around in the cells unearthed the distillery in one of the cells.
 "What is this:" he asked as he pointed to small oil stove.
 "Well, as you live caught up with us," replied one of the inmates, "I might as we'll tell you. That is part of our illicit distillery."
 "Illicit distilling!"
 "Yes, we make as much corn whisky in here as we want, but l'll give you point right now that we don't sell any of it."
 "How do you make corn whisky"
 sEasy enough. You see this box here. Well, when we want to make run we place lot of this corn bread in the box and pour boiling water over it. This ma what we call mash or beer. Try some of it!" and suiting his words he dipped up cup full of stuff and handed to the report CT, which tasted something like a mix ture of red liquor and Chinese tooth wash. "Well, when we put this in the little boil CT on that oil stove we stick in e rubber pipe which connects with this large coffee pot. The rubber tube goes under this stream of water here, and this generates a certain temperature, which makeo the liquor. The glucose is separated from the other stuff by the boiling progress, and this stream brings out the pur, liquor." "How much can you make day?"
 "I don't know. I expect if we would work all the time we could make make a gallon, but we only make enough for our own use, and there is not half dozen other prisoners in the jail who know we make it.'' asls
 "How do you keep them from it?'
 "By saying nothing and drinking our own liquor."
 "Ain't you afraid the revenu. marshals will get you" v
 'No; don't think an of them are mean enough to report us. We make it for our own use, and no one in here has had a drop of it."
 "Is it real good whisky?"
 "Just as good as any you ever tasted. | We don't want to let every body know | what we are doing, but we get plenty t' | drink"
 "None of the prisoners dropped on to it?" .......r-s | "Not one. If they had we would have been worried to death by them. We will not sell or give it away" a,
 'How long have you been running it?' -Four or five weeks"
 "The jailer hasn't caught up with you?'
 "No, when we know they are coming we shove every thing under the bed and look as innocent,as lambs when they come in. .'
 "Do you get enough bread to run you?'
 "Yes, you see they dish out three or four pieces to each prisoner, and if you want moro you, u,can ask for it. There are three of us in this cell and we generally have six or eight pieces of bread left oveI | when we get through eating." | "And it makes good liquor?"
 "Just as good as ever you tasted. wish had some made for you"

THE SACRED CITY.

An Iowa Editors Walk Around the Pres-
 ent Jewish Part of Jerusalem.
 We will take walk. The city is not large, the walls not very long, suppose we take them oD our left and see how long it takes to come back again. The way about the walls is first by the we'll made modern road that leads to Bethle- lem-by the deep, dry moat and by the rim of Hinnom vale. Then by a donkey path it takes the left-now up, now down; now by the burying ground, and by old gates and older stones, skirting the Kedron vale, and then Gehennah's gulch; then by narrow foot path past the garden patches, past old knOtted, gnarled olive trees; past Bethany's mud houses clinging 10 the dreary, blistered walls and past the golden gate-skirting the valley of Jehosaphat with his rock tomb and that of Absllom and Zacha- riah; past the St. Stephen gate that gives a view of sad Gethsemane and 0livet; then through among the Mos lem graves and tombs where waiting women sit and mourn their dead; past the Damascus gate, in view of Jeremi- ah's cave where erst he sat so many re- cluse years and pondered O CT the past, and prophesied of future woes; then past more walls and heaps of rub bish, stones and aged olive trees that have seen the tears and heard the sighs of centuries, we come back to the mod ern homes and streets again, and on a modern pavement by lot of modern traders shops stand we by Jafia gate again. Look at your watch. Not quite sixty minutes gone since we stood here before, yet we. have compassed all these walls-been clear around the present Jewish city. which now is twice as large ,-as it was when the Saviour died on Cal wary. Now are these walls two miles and half about; then perhaps a frac- ton more than one city then upon walled space-with Zlon's hill, Moriah with all its temples, houses, streets, about the size of six modern city blocks! Such was the magnitude of the Great City of David, a mere speck upon this Judean mountain range; a barren place amid more barren places; city without sewerage gas or aqueductS; city with out streets where carnage wheels could roll merely hornets nest hanging 10 a rock, an eagles nest among the crags and vet, for so the sacred story runs, the only home on earth of Him who made the world and set the sun and stars abovc.--Edgdr Richardson, in Davenport Democrat.

EDUCATING SERVANTS.
How They Can Be Taught Habits of Neat
 ness and Cleanliness.

How They Can Be Taught Habits of Neat
 ness and Cleanliness.
 In most of the new houses it IS mo- ticeable that the servants rooms are much more attractive and better ar ranged than the rooms of servants quarters in old houses. Once, corner of the unfinished attic was thought suffi- riently appropriate for the servant, and there was no inducement for even tidy maid to take pride in her domain and have pleasure in making it neat and pleasant Now, the rooms are we'll painted, prettily papered, furnish ed with closet and made as homelike as possible. If the servants are disor- uerly, the housekeeper is apt to protest that she is not responsible for the re- suits in the servants own apartments, for she has furnished pretty rooms and can not be expected to detect thelr pos Sessors in untidiness Although the result may be the necessity of expensive renovation upon each change ot oc- cupants, the mistress has no thought ot educating the new servants to greater neatness. A writer in Good House. keepin0 has made some excellent sug- gest:ons upon the subject. She says; stDon't forget each day to allow serv- ant some little time to make and keep order in her room. Insist from the first on the extreme care of the bed, Never allow soiled clothing to be hung up in a bedroom till convenient time comes for washing it Tell the girl to keep her door open when she is out of the room. These rules are excellent, and If the mistress is able to control her ser want, as she should, her directions will be-educative and of great value upon the character of the servant Many mattresses will be often discouraged. A lady who received bright Canad an- French girl, who was accustomed to field-work instead of house-work, was surprised to find that the 2 rls bed had not been used, after a week had passed Upon questioning she found that the girl had slept upon the floor each n ght, because she had never slept upon bed. The educating of such servants to habits of personal neatness is most difficult. Some English house-keepers advertise for servants with mo bangs" and many American house keepers are ob- liged to make rules upon dress, some having dresses and aprons made for their servants. The insisting upon cleanliness and order of the servants apartments is one of the most delicate tasks of the mistress, but its necessity is imperative for the comfortof the house. hold. If the girl is bright she uncon- eoiouclv hacOmaS more and more refined by simple association with acultivated family. and when she begins to initiate the young ladies of the family natural course of education will progress rapid ly.-BoSton Journal.

Good Luck of a Seamstress.
Portland (Me.) Press.

s Miss Helen A. Blanchard, the daughter of well -known' Portland merchant, who was unfortunate in business, after an un- successful attempt at keeping a boarding house in Boston, obtained work in Philae delphia clothing house in running a sew ing machine. One day, in a fit of despera. tion, she abandoned the sewing machine and the shop, not, however, to commit suicide, but to invent an over-seam stitch, and afterward band in gentlemen's hats to prevent precipitation, both of which proved highly successful. She has now returned to Portland to buy back the old homestead.

statements, and later the sheriff came
down from French creek and took the
prisoner back.-Chadron Democrat, so.
