Bill Arp A bout Farming.

Farming is the incest thing in the
world as long as it is done right, but
the tronbie seems to be in the men
who do it. For instance. when a man
fails at everything else he goes to
farming for living. He is still q
failure. / don't care how rich the
land is, it can't sprout brains in the
mans head who cultivates it. Not
much. When God fails to give q
man good sense it is useless for him
to try to grow wise by farming. If
you can't make fortune farming,
you can easily gather in good time
and a fat living if you will only act
wisely. All you have to do is 10
plant on time and work it correctly,
and your crop will be making you a
living of nights and at odd times,
while you are asleep or are talking
politics. But be careful how you
dabble in political squabbles. Crops
don't do we'll when their owners
talk Democracy too much. Bear
that in mind. | knew several men
who have talked themselves out of
a good crop many time. Crops
are very sensitive kinds Of creatures.
You must visit them in the friendli-
est manner once a week. or else
they will get mad and fail to make
anything much. Crops are very
cowardly, and / never saw one do
much when mortgage was drawn
on it. 1t makes it weak and sickly,
and the grass nearly always takes
it sooner or later. These mort
cages have a wonderful effect. I
have known them to make honest
men run their cotton off by the
sackful and sell it. Don't mort.
gage your crops, or you may have
to 60 to Jail on account of it. Be
careful how you monkey with q
mortgage. It is a deadly weapon
and It has killed its hundreds and
thousands. 1t puts prison house
around you, no matter where you
go. Better wear a ragged suit and
be free, then to dress fine and feel
like thief and rascal.

Eve sides oftlae 9aesEaora.

One thousand one hundred and
eighty-one young women and girls
attended the free Gay and evening
classes connected with the Young
Women's Christian Association last
year. There are free classes in
stenography, type-writing, book
keeping, commercial arithmetic,
business training, drawing, model
ing and designing, retouching photo
negatives, physical culture, choir
music and dressmaking, Said a
lady interested in the association to
the writer: Surely the women and
girls Of New York ought to embrace
these advantages and make the most
OF them"
One bright looking young woman,
though perhaps not patient and per
seyering enough, looked rather du-
biousIy at .the speaker as she re.
marked "Rut the market seems
overstocked now with stenograph-
ers, typewriters. 5ook.keepers; in

At the Cooper Union Free School,
Of Telegraphy they sill not take
pupils, unless some prominent man,
or some person with q good stand
inc in the community, comes for
ward and guarantees them posi-
tions."
Mark Twain, said the lady,
with his Characteristic force, on the
other hand, expresses himself as
follows: "All trades and oecupa.
tons are oramped and hindered for
want Of people to do the work. not
for want Of work to do. When
people tell you the reverse they

John Knox, the Scotch reformer,
had many enemies, who sought his
destruction. Hewasin thehabito sit.
sitting in particularchairinh in his own
house, with his back to the window.
One evening, however, when assem-
bling his family, he would neither
occupy his accustomed scat nor al.
low anybody else to do so. That
very evening a bullet was sent
through the window with a design to
kill him. It grazed the chair he
usually occub bied, and made a hole in
the candlestick. It is related of
Augustine that he was going on one
occasion to preach at distant town
and took a guide to direct him on
his way BY some means the guide
mlstook his way, and got into a
bypath. It was afterward discov-
cred that party of miscreants had
designed to waylay and murder him,
and that his life was saved through
the guides mistake. Howard, the
philanthropist, was once preserved
from death by what some would call
mere chance, but which was no other
than a special providence. He al
ways set a high value on Sabbath
priviledges, and was exact and care
full in his attendance. That he might
neither increase the labor of his SER
wants, nor prevent their attendance
on public worship, he was accus-
toned to walk to the chapel at Bed
ford, where he attended. Cine day
a man whom he reproved for idle
and dissolute habits, resolved to
waylay and murder him. That
morning, however, for some reason
or other, be resolved to 60 on lcrse-
back and by a different road. Thus
his life was preserved"

yellow Fever Microbes.

Said Or. Clifton: "A yellow fever
mlerobe has the appearance of three
joiuts of sugar cane. | got them
from Washington in a glass tube
that somewhat resembles a gourd.
The tiny microbes are placed in the
big end, but by looking at it you
could never tell that there was any
thing but air in it. The small end
is sealed up and the microbes
are in there, though apparently
dead. Some microbes live in such
places for twenty years. We will
suppose now that we want to look
at some Of them under the micro
scope. Upon the little glass side
we put q drop of gelatine Of the
consistency that will not run. We
take a cambric needle, and after
heating it to destroy all microbes
that may be in the air, we quickly
break the seal Of the glass tube and
insert the needle, drawing it out
quickly and resealing the neck of
the tube. We insert the needle in
the drop of gelatine on the slide
and quickly put on the little cover
TO shut out such gems Or microbes
that may he floating about in the
air. Then we place the slide under
the microscope In forty-fve min
utes the microbes have fully aroused
from their Rip Van Winkle sleep,
and now you see what curious
things they are. As ] said before.
they resemble three joints Of sugar
cane, but the joints are not straight,
but at opposite angles. Take this
fellow, for instance, and you see a
joint drops off, leaving him with
Two joints. Presently another joint
joins on to the dropped joint, and by
this time third joint appears on
No. /. Now look at No. 2, and
there is a third joint. Now a joint
drops from No. l. and by the time it
gains No. 2 drops joint, and this,
with the joint from No. 2, join TO-
gether. and there is microoe No. 4.
Another joint grows on Nos. and
2, and one drops from No. 8, and,
these joining together, make mi,
crobe No, 4, and so they go until
the little drop of geIantine is a
working, seething mass of microbes.
Now. these microbes are in the
blood Of q yellow fever patient, and
there's where they live. They get
into a blood eorpuscle and eat out
all the red part, as darky eats out
the red meat Of a watermelon, and
the blood is then drop Of clear
fluid. To give you an idea Of how
many can crowd into corpuscle Of
blood, let ne say that it'takes 5000
corFuscles strung together to make
an inch, Well, you can string Just
10000 microbes across the diane
ter Of the colpuscie, consequently
you can guess billions after billions
Of microbes in crop of blood. The
theory is that these microbes eat up
ones blood so rapidly as to take it
all away from him in very short
time. Some. men can stand the
letting Of more blood than others.
and consequently some men recover
from yellow fever. Macon (Ga.)

Avoid Discussing Sermons.

."Avoid discussing sermons-rais.

These are golden words. Would
that all Christians would remember
them? How often a harsh criti.
cism has destroyed the effect Of a
sermon that otherwise would have
blessed the hearer! II thought it
was a good sermon" said Q young

next both President Cleveland and
his party will stand higher in Gen.
Harrison's estimation than they do
now. Good Republicans who found
fault with them for not living up to
their professions about patronage,

SHARP AND THE ROME HOMESTEAD,

The general improvement of the country
around has been very great in the same
years.
jacob was born in Montgomery county,
and spent his boyhood around Troy. Al.
bany and Schenectady. In those days,
fifty or sixty years ago, the lumber trade
was great thing and young Sharp soon
acquired n reputation as II bold and skill
ful raftsman. As such he made many
trips TO New York, and was inspired by
the chances he saw there TO make money.
At length he saved enough to buy ON his
own account, and thereafter his rise was
rapid For awhile he was in the milk
business and Jake Sharp milk" had a
high reputation for purity; then he got
contracts for furnishing lumber for the
New York wharvos and soon transferred
his energies and abilities to the great
city. He married n very intelligent lady;
one of his daughters Is wife of the mayor
of Rome, and his family includes several
grandchildren. Such is the domestic Jake
Sharp, and SO popular was he about his
homo that his neighbors have nothing
but denunciation for his opponents In the
city.
