Il man ON the cars having several
Thousand dollars in greenbacks in his
possession, and fearing to 60 to sleep
sitting in his seat, on account of seeing
some suspicious individuals IA his
neighborhood. slyly slipped his money
into the Bible belonging to the train,
and on the following morning woke uI
to find his capital gone, and to learn
that the men who slept with their cash
in their pockets hadn't lost a cent.
This fable teaches US that while il is a
good thing to be just sharp enough, it
Is very dangerous TO be too smart. aud
that when the smart man gets left he
Is the most colosssly left man that ever
was left.

Il Wisconsin correspondent, believing
that steam must eventually be used foI
machines, suggests that sufficient lift
Ing hold upon the air to carry a small
engine and boiler might be obtained
with two parachutes. He would place
them one above the other, with valves
similar to those in a birds wing to re-
tard downward motion, while the lift
ing and propelliny power would be OBJ
tained from the upper parachute: the
lower parachute, from which would be
worked a long rudder, also to form a
check valve to the upper one, the fitting
of the latter to furnish the propelling
power.

POTATOES FOR SEED.-A successful
potato grower in Ohio expresses the
opinion that it will pay farmers to
retard the sprouting of potatoes in late
winter and early spring by artificial
means, such as cold storage or refrigera-
ton in small ice-houses. He believes
that the seed exhausts itself by sprout-
ing In the cellar, and Its value becomes
thereby greatly deprecated. 1t is sug-
gested that not a little of the success
OF the Aroostook (Me.) pototato
growers is due to their naturally late
spring, which keeps the seed from
growing until it is placed in the ground.

The Germans are utilizing discovery
for hanging paper on damp walls. 1t
consists In coating lining paper on
one side with a solution of shellac
spirit, of somewhat greater consistency
than the ordinary French polish, :"
and then hanging it with the side thus
treated to the damp wall. The paper
hanging is then performed in the usual
manner with paste. Any other resin
that is equally soluble in spirits may be
used In place OF the shellac. Accord
ing to the representations. this process
is found equally effective In preventing
the penetration OF dampness.

TABLES are often published showing
the respective merits of the different
breeds or cattle with reference to their
daily products If the Shorthorn, for
example, heads the list. the impression
gets abroad that this is the most profta-
Bile dairy breed. This is very misl cad
ing. The animal that produces the
most with the consumption of the least
food yields the most actual profit. If
two Jerseys consume the same quanti-
ty of food as one Shorthorn, it would
be more reliable TO make the estimate
of the two Jerseys against the one
Shorthorn.

very thin, these cakes are delicious, es-
peciaIly when eaten with maple syrup.

a good Substitute. Put q large spoon
full in the batter, and let It stand sever
al hours TO rise. If the griddle Is used.
the be't way TO grease it is to rub it
over with piece OF salt pork with q
fork. This prevents adhesion, and get
does not allow the fat to soak into what
is cooked. Nothing sIckens one as
soon as the taste of the burnt grease
that careless cooks so often give to
breakfast cakes. Another good way IS
to have a clothespin or other clean bit
OF wood; tie number Of folds of clean
linen on the end, and use this to apply
the grease to the griddle. Then linen
will have TO be renewed from time to
time. 1t is more economical and better
than putting il on with a spoon
