THE FARMERS WIFE.
Though Living In the Best Of Air She Tai
Nh Advunfnwa nT

Though Living In the Best Of Air She Takes
No Advantage or 1t.
One of the reasons the farmers wife
is apt to look sallow and faded. and
why she grows old before her time, is
that the minute the weather grows
cold she stays in the house from one
weeks end to another. In summer
time. gathering berries or garden veg
etables, or feeding the chickens, will
take her out Of doors. but Just as soon
us necessity no longer compcls her to
so int" the open air she remains in
side. One of her excuses is that she
has no time for oAt-door exercise.
This doubtless is true, for there is no
woman so hard-worked as the farmers
wife, but she must 90 out for II short
walk or drive, if somebody or some
thing has to suffer in consequence. To
be sure there are not the incentives for
going out that the city woman has; the
marketing or shopping that can be
accomplished in a walk Of few
blocks. If there is to be any shopping
the "team' must be gotten up and a
drive of several miles taken. This
means considerable expenditure OF
time and is not done any oftener than
dire necessity requires. Perhaps the
nearest neighbor is not within walking
distance, consequently walk will be
without any excuse in the mind of the
average farmers wife. Go out and
walk up the road, then. half mile
without any excuse except the saving
OF your health; that is the best posi-
BILE excuse that you could have. You
will come back rested in mind and
brain. You will be able to do twice as
much darning and patching, and do it
with better grace, with the renewed
energy which You have gained from
your walk in the fresh. pure air. The
farmers wife lives in the best air there
is to he had and takes the least adyan-
tage of it.-DetroH Tribune,

tate in East Liberty. About sixty years
ago his mother gave him five hundred
dollars rs starter The ..Go West
fever had not as yet agitated staid
Eastern communities, but Philip was
fired with II restless ambition to go
West. and seeing but little prospect Of
great future for Pittsburgh. he jour-
neyed toward the setting sun. and at
ter much meandering he halted at the
city Of Erie, then little more than
lakeside hamlet. Philip had consid-
cradle knowledge Of land titles, and as
he was offered by an an old settler one
hundred acres in the town for five hum
dred dollars, he grasped eagerly at the
supposed bargain. but shortly after
wards relentcd and wanted his money
back. But real estate deals are not
generally made on the basis of '.re-
funding the money If goods are not sat

land. He came back to his mother in
Pittsburgh, broken-hearted over his i'll
luck. and cried like child at what he
considered robbery of his five hum
dred dollars, and both agreed it was
bad Slip for Philip. Thirty years
later this land could not bought for
two million dollars. and is now worth
nearly four million dollars. OF course
all this, on the Carpenterian theory,
was brought about by hard work.
Five and thirty years ago the most
noted hostelry in the city was kept ut
the junction Of the Seventh street road
and the East Liberty turnpike. by a
sprightly old German lover of the turf
named Pap BETTER. father Of the
noted turfmen Sam and Joe BETTER.

owner of a large tract of land near
where East Liberty Station now stands,
but whose heirs do not care to have his
name mentioned, took fancy to

DE LESSEPS' CANAL.
The Proposed Alteration in the Plan OF the
Panama Ditch.

| Panama Ditch.
1t has cost some hundreds of mil.
lions Of dollars to demonstrate to Count
Ferdinand DE Lesseps that stone has
not the degree Of permeability pos
sessed by sand. 1t was no trick at all
to dig u hole through the graduated
plain Of Sucz; but canalizing the solid
rocks OF Panama is quite different
thing. This is ut last admitted by De
Lesseps, and he now proposes to change
his work from a sea level to lock
canal. But will the undertaking, even
in its new shape, ever be finished? Can
its promoters ever raise the vast sum
needed for its completion?
lie Genie Ciuii. the most prominent
engineering periodical in France, has
an article in Il recent number on the
subject of the proposed alteration in the

certainly startle the Gallic enthusiasts
who have been inyeigled into dumping
money by the cart-load into big ditch

by the way, is not hostile to the enter
prise:

line of the canal at Panama is divided,

plishment, up TO this time, has been as
follows: In the first division, from As
pinwall westward. threa-tifths of the
excavation. and in the fifth division,
from Panama eastward. one-third;
in the second and third divisions, from
Tavernilla to Emperado, one-eighth
