A writer in London paper dis

dence to the people of whom one
knows nothing except that they are
pleasant companions when they are
met socially. The danger lies," he
says, sin the facility with which COM
panionship of this kind is mistaken for
true intimacy. though it does not really
imply any thing approaching to it." A
woman "will trust her life to the
keeping of man, of whose aims,
Of whose standard of right and
wrong, of whose power of habit of
giving up to the standard she knows
just as much and just as little as she
does of the actors whom she has seen
on the stage, though she is deceived into
thinking she knows more, only be-
cause she happens in this case to have
been one of the actors and not merely
passive spectator" There is more

Less Cotton and More Grass.

The Southern Agriculturist tells Of q
farmers club in Alabama where q
speaker said ''hls section had capacity
to grow any kind OF clover and grasses;
but these were neglected because OF
.he idea of growing cotton" He said
cotton was the most expensive crop
cultivated, and paid less in proportion
to work bestowed on it than any other
cultivated. The more bales grown
the less the price, and indications are
that the present crop will not be sold
for over 8 cents per pound. If the
planters of the South would devote
one-fourth of their land to grass and
thus reduce the crop to 5,OOO,O 900
bales the price would be II to IA cents
per 0pound, and that would pay for
growing.

operation performed by Prof. Billroth
at the Vienna Klinik is much COM

ing his team to town last winter his
legs, fingers, ears and nose were frozen.
At the time his life was despaired of.
Both his legs had to be cut off, and
only one finger on each hand could be
saved. His nose was replaced by an
artificial one, and his ears were clip

markable somposure, and, having been
supplied with artificial legs and feet,
he can now get about with the help OF
two simple sticks. 1t is surprising
that with one finger he is able to write

Never wash horse with cold water
when he is heated.
On the farm dispense with shoes,
unless the land is very rocky.
Feed your horse regularly three
times daily, but never over-feed.
Water before feeding, but not while
the horse is hot from work.
Use the whip very little, and never
when the animal SHES or stumbles.
Never leave horse standing un.
hitched. 1t is the way to make them
runaways.
Do not storm and fret. Be quiet
and kind, and the horse will be so too,
in most cases.
Give horse large stall and a good
bed at night. 1t is important that he
lie down to rest.
If horse is vicious and unman age
able at your business, sell it to some
one that can control him.

Near the close of a journey let the

Vestibuled Trains on the Il. & o.
R. R.

The first of the Baltimore and Ohio Com
pany's new vestibuled trains has been turned
out of Mt Glare Shops and an experimental
trip was made with it August 10Th. The
train was run from Baltimore to Keyser, 215
miles, in five hours. On the line between
Baltimore and Keyser are some of sharpest
curves on the B, & o. Road, but notwith-
standing the high rate of speed maintained
the swaying of the train was scarcely per-
ceptible, the oscillation at the top of the car
not exceeding six inches.
This test fully demonstrates what has
heretofore been claimed for the vestibule
device and that is, that it eifectually obviates
the swaying motion impaired to a train in
rounding curves at high speed. The new
train will be in Immediately placed in regular
service between Philadelphia and Chicago.
All other through trains on the B. & o.

Artificial Feeding of Infants.

The principal substitutes for breast-milk
are those of the COW and goat. The mixed
milk of dairy is preferable to that of one
COW. Cows milk must be boiled before
being used. Condensed milk is not uni
form article, and its use preoarious. for that
and other reasons. Goats milk contains
too much casein and fat, besides being other
wise incongruous. Skinned milk, obtained
in the usual way, by allowing the cream to
rise in the course of time, is Objectionable,
because such milk is always acidulated. The
caseins of cows and woman's milk differ
both chemically and physiologicaly. The
former is less digestible. There ought to
be no more than one per cent. of casnin in
every infant food. Dilution with water
alone may appear to be harmless in many
instances, for some children thrive on it,.
More, however, appear only to do so; for in
creasng weight and obesity are not synony-
nous with health and strength. A better
way to dilute cows milk, and at the same
time to render its casen less liable to coagu-
late in large Jumps, is the addition Of decoc.
tions of cereals. 1t has been stated before
that small amount of starch is digested at
the very earliest age. But cereals contain
ing a small percentage of it are to be pre-.
ferred. Barley and oatmeal have an almost
equal chemical composition: but the latter
has greater tendency to loosen the bowels
Thus, where there is tendency to diarrhma,
barley ought to Be preferred; in cases oi
constipation, oatmeal. The whole barley
corn, ground for tine purpose, should be used
for small children, because of the protein
being mostly contained inside and near the
very husk. The newly-born ought to have

why DefaIpe DeceneyH

Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison |
are the chief competitors for the Presidency |
and one of them will be elected. They are
both honest, patriotic citizens of whom the
country lis Justly proud, and every honest
citizen should resent every attempt OF cam
paign liars or fools to cast bemish upon
their characters.
1t is reported from day to day iii the cam
paign that General Harrison publicly de-
clared, during the turbulent railway strikes
of 1s77'that "S1 day was enough for work
ingmen." AS General Harrison has never
drank and has never.b been an idiot, of course
he never said so. He has never been regard
ed as especially sympathetic with industrial
people, but those who accuse him of max
ing such declaration must do 1t in ignor-
ance or with deliberate intent to falsify.
1t is repeated from day to day that Presi-
dent Cleveland is for free trade and that he
would deprive our home industry Of just
protection by tariff laws. Those who re-
peat this falsehood are either to be pitied
for their ignorance or Stunned for their dis.
regard of truth. The message of the Presi-
dent on the tariff is the strongest and most
pointed argument for the protection of the
wages of labor that ever emanted from the
Executive of the nation, and the tariff revi-
sion he favors gives higher protection to la
Dor than was ever before given, except when
the necessities of war imposed excessive
taxes.
1t is repeated from day to day that Gen.
eral Harrison voted and spoke in favor OF
the free admission of Chinese labor to this
country to destroy our home labor. 1t is
not true, and every man of ordinary intelli.
gence knows it to be false. He voted against
Chinese bill because it was in Conflict
with our treaty obligations, and President
Arthur vetoed the bill ON the same grounds
Whatever may be his views on Chinese la
Dor, he did not speak or vote for its FIRE,
admission when in the Senate.
1t is repeated every day that President
Cleveland took no steps to protect our fish
erman in Canadian waters until the Senate
rejected the treaty. All who say so, either
know that they are untruthful or they arr
hopeiessly ignorant of the facts. As sool

retaliation, and he promptly and boldl,
accepted it, and every intelligent bushes
man heartily thanks him for it, His polio,
is thoroughly American in labor and mi di
plomacy and only fools or inaves charge tn
contrary.
