The Wisdom of Economy.

Look most to your spending. No
matter what comes in, if more goes
out you will be poor always. The
art is not in making money, but in
keeping it; little expenses, like mice
in barn, when they are many,
make great waste. Hair by hair
the head gets bald; straw by straw
the thatch goes off the cottage; drop
by drop the rain comes into the
chamber. A barrel is soon empty
if the tap leaks but drop a min
ute; when you mean to save begin
with your mouth; there are many
thieves down the red lane. The ale
jug is a great waste. In all other
things keep within compass. In
clothes choose suitable and lasting
stuff and not tawdry fineries. To
be warm is the main thing, never
mind the looks. Never stretch your
legs further than the blanket will
reach, or you will soon be cold. A
fool may make money, but it needs
a wise man to spend it. Remember,
it is easier to build chimneys thar
to keep one going. II you give all
to back and board, there is nothing
left for the savings bank. Fare
hard and work while you are young
and you will have chance of rest
when you are old.

Abont the Size of It.

Liberty of speech is the right of
every man in this country, but lib
erty of murder is the right of none.
The miscresnts who come here with
bombs and dynamite, and with the
avowed purpose of killing those
who do not please them, should be
dealt with in the sternest and most
relentless manner. There is no room
for them in this country and the
places they occupy cannot be vacat
ed too soon. In such n contest as
that which hiss been provoked n
Chicago, where the crazy fools who
are advocating the slaughter alike
of peaceful citizens and officers of
the law have attempted to execute
their ferocious purpose, there is but
one thing to be done: They must
be put down with the strong hand
instantly and afterward those who
remain alive must be tried and must
have justice, but not mercy. There
is no excuse whatever for that
crime, and the courts and authori--
ties of Illinois may be relied upon
to deal with them as their deserts
and the public safety re quire New
York Sun.

Pack Tie Lungs With Air.

Deep breathing and holding of
the breath is an item of importance.
Persons of weak vitality find an I'M
interrupted succession of deep and
rapid respiration so distressing that
they are discouraged from perserv-
ering in the exercise. Let such per-
sons take into the lungs as much
air as they can at breath and hold
it as long as they can and they will
find grateful sense of relief in the
whole abdominal region. Practice
will increase ability to hold the
breath and the capacity of the
lungs. After time the art may be
learned of packing the lungs. This
is done by taking and holding the
long breath and then forcing more
air down the trach3 by swallows
of ais. The operation may be de-
scribed by that of fish's mouth in
the water. To those who have new
er learned it will be surprising to
what extent the lungs may be pack
ed. Caution at first is needful, but
later practice will warrant large use
of the treatment. The whole tho
raic and abdominal cavities will re-
ceiye immediate benefit, and con-
tinuance and temperance in eating,
good air and right exercise will
bring welcome Improvement

How to Disappoint a Balky. Horse.

now 10 OlSappOlnI a Dalky aOfSes
The Fitchburg Sentinel tells how
Leominster farmer cured his
horse Of a balky freak by gentle
means.
He Idrove him, attached to a
rack wagon. to the wood lot for a
small load of wood. The animal
would not pull a pound. He did
not beat him but tied him to tree
and ''let him stand" He went to
the lot at sunset and asked him to
draw but he wonld not straighten
a tug. 81 made up my mind" said
the farmer "When that horse went
to the barn he would take that load
of wood. / went to the barn, got
blankets, covered the horse warm
and he stood until morning. Then
he refused to draw. AT noon
went down and he was probably
hungry and lonesome. He drew
that load of wood the first time
asked him. / returned and got an
other load before I fed him. 1 then
rewarded him with a good dinner,
which he eagerly devoured. / have
drawn several loads since. Once
he refused to draw; but soon as he
saw me start for the house he start
ed after me with the load. A horse
becomes lonesome and disconnected
when left alone, as much so as q
person. and / claim this method, if
rightly used, is better for both
horse and man than to beat the an
imal with a club"

Philosophy of Success.

How to succeed in life, is the all
important problem for solution by
both young and old. Why some
succeed while others do not, seems
almost inexplicable at times; still
there are but very few unfortun ates,
bound down by circumstances
which is not within their power 10
prevent or remedy. The philosophy
of true success is embodied in the
principles of earnest, well directed
efforts. Indiscretion, vascilation
and weakness of purpose, are the
almost universal causes of an un-
successful life.
There is a great diversity ofviews
held as to what constitutes success /;
and while we do not look upon the
acquisition of money as the greatest
or only evidences of success, it is
not our purpose to attempt a full
definition, What one man smiles
upon as a grand success, to another
would be sad, humiliating failure.
Present attainment of wealth, edu-
cation or position, may not indi-
cate the full measure of success to
be enjoyed. The present may be
the effect of causes preceding, and
also the causes that point to much
grander results IN the future. a
young man may sigh for wealth and
position, and may despir because
they were not the fortunes of birth
or inheritance. He may not have
the disposition to help himself,
and therefore remain drone at
the foot of the ladder that reaches
high up to fortune, fame and honor.
Success is the rightful possession
of no one who thus indolently neg
lects golden opportunities, for
while AN inheritance may greatly
aid in the race of life, it confers no
absolute honor upon its chance pos
SCISSOR. The thousands who have
risen from poverty's cradle to be
counted among millionaire should
assure all, that wealth is attainable
by the proper exercise of mind and
muscle; that, indeed every man is
the architect of his own fortune"
He who would make progress on
the road TO fortune or to fame, will
find the philosophy of success in
the answer which Jupiter gave the
WAGNER: "Put your own shout
der to the wheel" The young man
or old-who drinks, smokes and
loafs his time away around street
corners, who feasts upon his own
and others licentious thoughts and

Feeding Young Chicks,

The setting of hen and leaving
the chances of full brood in the
fall wholly to the hen is poor econo-
my indeed. Hens have very little
brains and we cannot expect so
much from them. The brood should
be cooped and the best place is un-
der q shed-the hen confined and
the chicks given full liberty; feed in
the morning bread made from corn
meal or Medicated Excelsior meal
crumbled into milk that has been
scalded, till two weeks old, and no
water and you will not lose chick
from any trouble with the bowels.
The first two weeks lay the founda-
tion of health and growth. A brood
that has received no check during
the first four weeks and are weaned
healthy and strong, as a rule all
live, are the largest, commence to
lay early and lay well the year
through; while the spindling, ill-far-
ed brood furnish the roupy chicks
in the fall and the poorest layers of
onr fiocks during the succeeding
season. My boy, you see the neces-
sity of chicks getting the right
start in life as well as the boys. If
you do not start right all goes
wrong. just see, too, that April
and May hatch all the chicks, that
they have good care till weaned and
plenty to eat afterwards, and in the
fall the focks will bring more so
you can have a nice overcoat and a
pair of skates for your trouble in
properly caring for them.-Country

Something About Salt.

Rev. Thos. Stack, of Alexandria
gave lecture on a "grain of salt, !"
recently at Loyola college, in Bal
timore. The lecturer explained, in
all detail, the necessity of common
salt for the preservation of food,
and the powerful part it plays in
giving to the gastric juice of the
stomach a never failing source
whence it may extract the requi-
site quantity of inorganic or miner
81 acids. Hence one of the direst
puuishments inflicted on criminals
in the pagan world was to feed the
condemned on saltless food. with
the advance of civilization" said
the lecturer, "the demand for salt
has increased enormously. 1t is
estimated that in the United States
over 10000, 900 bushels of salt are
annually consumed, To draw a
comparison: While every French
man IS allowed sixteen pounds of
salt yearly, an Englishman's por-
ton would be twenty-five pounds,
but each citizen of the United
States receives yearly rations of
nearly fifty pounds. There is no
danger, however, of our exhausting
the salt supply, so abuntly does it
occur in nature, both in the solid
state, as rock salt, and in solution
in sea water, salt lakes and salt
springs. Mines of rock salt have
been recently explored in the eau
casus, the mines of Wieliezka, in
Austrian Galicia, have been worked
for at least six, but probably for
upward of eight centuries"

The Girl ii bic Front Gate.

Rob't j. Burdette.
Heaven bless the girl at the front
gate with peach bloom on her
cheeks and love-light in her eyes.
Some men would shut her out of
our literature, but / am not one of
them. The girl at the front gate
can never grow old to those who
have been there with her. Years
may come and go, but the music of
the low voice at the front gate will
not be stilled, and the memory of
the cherry lips we kissed at the
front gate will hold out faithful to
the end.
What if the old gate does sag and
its hinges rattle and its latch refuse
to hold it shut? What if the posts
are shaky and some of its pickets
are gone? We love the dear Old
relic still. We love it for the sake
of the girl who used to stand out
there by it with roses on her cheeks
and nectar on her lips.
We held the old gate up and
counted the stars, and bid her good
bye and then counted the stars
again. How many times of night
was good bye said? How many
times did lips meet over the dear
old gate? The old gate knows but
it viii never tell. The old front
gate may have counted the kisses,
but never did. And I am sure
that the girl with the peach bloom
cheeks never did.
And what of the girl with the
peach bloom cheeks2 All, me! She
married another. She forgot hel
vows at the old front gate, as some
girls will, and married richer and
handsomer man. And II Well,
went off to another front gate where
there were other peach bloom cheek:
and other lips as sweet, and just al
many stars to count.
And now / have a front gate o.
my own, and girl of my own with
peach bloom cheeks who counts the
stars with the boy of the girl whose
VOWS made with me at the frs
front gate were broken. But he il
a true, good boy, and my girl is s
. true, good girl, and heaven bless
them both as they stand tonight a
the old front gate.
