The Religion of the HindOO.

Some people, indeed most people,
think of the popula ~ of India as
barbarous and heatheni ~. 1t is great
mistake, and many missionaries wish
they were, so hard is it to make i'm
pressions on them. They are skilled
metaphysicians and accomplished logi-
clans Why. the theories of Huxley
and Darwin were known and tried by
Hindoo masters 1900 years ago and re-
jected. The Hindoo believes in one
supreme, self-existing spirit-the great
Brahma. The Hindoo Triad is Brah-
ma, Veshnu, and SILVA. This Triad
stands at the head of vast pantheon
of gods, numbering no less than $780,
000. 900, all of whom are monstrosities
of vice.
The Hindoo believes that the spirit
within him is spark of God-in other
words, he is part of Coda spark of
God inclosed in clay, by means of en-
vironment in clay, and destined to pass
through long transmigration. You
look forward to heaven as place of
supreme rest and happiness, where all
is free from sin, sorrow, and trouble,
while the Hindoo tortures himself
through life to gain his summum boz
mum, and what is it? 1t is the entire
destruction of all personal conscious
ness that they live and torture them
selves to gain.
When a girl is born in India it is
disgrace, painful and humiliating. When
a boy is born the mother is happy; but
when girl, "a wretched girl, is born,
her mother is grieved and her husband
disappointed. Until the British law
interposed, these unnatural females
do not call them mothers-were won't
to throw their female children into the
rivers, to be devoured by crocodiles.
The girl now is neglected until she
reaches a manageable age, and she
must be welded between the ages o. 6
and years before she is a woman.
The fate of the Hindoo widow is ter
rible. She can never again we'd, but
must live in desolation for the rest of
her days, although bat mere child.

GENERAL STOCK AND FARM.

A dairyman who was brought up in q
limestone country says that cattle there
never bloated from eating green Iced.
This has led him to believe that lime in
water prevents bloating. He has fol-
lowed the practice Of putting from one
to two gallons o: lime every week in the
water-tronghs from which his cattle
drink, and none Of his cattle give him
trouble BY etting bloated.
The honey season in the United States
and Canada proves to be nearest to q
failure of any season in some time, ex-
cept last year. Throughout the whole
country the nights have been cool, which
is uDfavorsble to the secretion of nectar,
while at the West the drought of last
year killed the white clover 80 that no
crop could have bsen secure there, had
the weather been ever 30 favorable.
The tomato vine will continue to bear
until frost. A good vine should have
blossoms, green fruit and ripe fruit on
it at the same time. Il may be trimmed
and kept in shape like tree, and should
be supported by q stake or hoops Az
the vine produces an abundance of fruit
q handful Of fertilizer may be scattered
around it occasionally, superphosphate
being excellent. Weeds and grass
should be kept down.
A prominent miller and grain buyer
of Milwaukee has visited the principal
cities OF the state recently, for the pur-.
pose of buying wheat for his mills in
that city. The light crop in the north
west this season has turned the stten-
ton Of the Milwaukee millers toward
the granaries OF Kansas, which ara full
to oyerfowing. He was surprised to
learn that the greater part of the wheat
exported by Kansas this year is going
by the southern roads and the gull. The
shipments to Kansas City show sur
priaiDg loss this year, though If il sknovn

instead of driving the boy out?"
Hist! He is the man who keeps the

ALet US look over the alley fence and

McGee's back yard. Is it not beau

at is. 1t is a marble dog, and so
ife-like that l would declare it alive
"That shows the wonderful skill of
man. Human skill, assisted by pa
tience and perseverance, can accomp-
lish wonders"
"Who is that coming down the
street?"
1T is poor young man whose all (an
old pair of boots was consumed by the
great Chicago fire, and he now wanders
broken-hearted and discouraged over
the face of the earth"
why does he wish to enter the back
yard?"
ITO tell his sad story to the hired
girl at the kitchen door. She will listen,
wipe away the falling tear, and fill him
up with the best in the house"
"Ah! ha! but did you see that? The
marble dog seemed to raise its headl"
$50 it did Look! 1t is now making
jumps ten feet apart! See. 1t has seiz-
ed the tramp!'
"Wonderful! Hear him yell Where
is he going now?"
"He is headed for Australia, via the
lattice gate and Pine street, and the
marble dog seems to be part of him."
"And won't he tell his sad story to
the hired girl to-day?"
"No, not to-day. When the soft
shades of evening close in upon the
wicked world he viii be far, far from
this"
"And the marble dog?"
VIII soon return to resume its pose
under the cherry tree and wait for
another. Wonderful is the skill of
man."
LESSON III.
do you see the man and boy?"
"Yes, see them"
"They are father and son, and they
are talking. Can you hear what they
are saying?"
81 can. 1t is Sunday. 4 circus has
arrived in town and the boy wants to
go over and see the tents"
"And won't his father permit him ?"
"No. He says it's the most wicked
thing he ever heard of. and that it may
lose the boys soul. He also promises
him whaling Monday morning"
"ShaL we go over to tbs tents and
lose our souls?"
1--WE will. All! who is this man
ahead Of u.s."
"Why, that is the boys father! He
has slipped out of the alley gate and is
making for the circus grounds as fast
as he can 60"
"But won't he lose his soul? 2"
"Not if the court knows herself"
LESSON ".
"Ahi here is farmer on his way to
town. Can you see what he has in his
wagon?"
"Oh, yes. He has bale OF hops"
$50 he has. Poor mani"
"Why do you say that?"
Because he will have to draw his
bale back home again.
"But he may sell them to the brewer"
Not to-day, my son. There was
time when brewers didn't know any
better than to buy hops to brew with,
but now they have thirty-two substi-
tutes and are still gaining on it."
"And the farmer will lose the fruits
of his labor
Not altogether, perhaps. He may
have a case of quinsy, and then his
hops will come handy. He should have
taken the papers and kept posted. -
