Memory,s Queer Caper.

heard = story the other day about
prominent church member who had been
called on to lead a prayer-meeting. lie
selected the subject Of some preliminary
remarks, read an appropriate chapter
from the Bible, and started upon his dis
course. For five minutes be spoke
smoothly, fuently, and aptly, and then,
all Of sudden, by some queer caper Of
mind, he forgot not only the thread Of
his discourse, but the subject itself lie
paused to collect his thoughts, but they
would not be collected Then he beck
oned to a worthy brother in the front
pew. When the brother came the speak
er whispered this inquiry in his ear
"Do you remember what have been
talking about"
"Hey /" exclaimed the worthy brother.
He evidently thought the speaker was
accusing him of a lack Of attention.
"Do you know the subject was
speaking on -
NO. do net, said the worthy broth
er, scratching his head in perplexed
way.
Here was a pickel, sure enough. Then
the leader Of the meeting called another
member up and made the same inquiry.
But this member was as ignorant Of the
matter as the first one, and the speaker
in desperation, renewed his remarks,
touching on an entirely different line Of
thought, as he afterwards remembered.
His audience never knew the difference,
as he took pains to inquire.

a writer in Florida paper says Of the
Seminole Indians: They have a
tradition handed down from their fore
fathers which they believe-that the
Great Spirit first made the black man,
next the red man, and third, the white
man, after which the Great Spirit called
them together and placed before them
three boxes one filed with books and
maps, the second with bows, arrows and
tomahawks. the third with spades, axes,
hoes and hammers. These are the
means offered by which you are to live /;
choose among them according to your
fancy" The white man had the first
choice, and choose the books and maps :
the red men took the bow, arrows and
tomahawks. From this it is clear that
the Great Spirit intended the white man
to learn to read and write, and make
everything, even rum and whisky the
red man, iirst-rate hunter and a great
warrior, was not to learn anything from
books-not even to make rum or whisky
lest he should kill himself with drinking;
the black man had nothing but working
tools--it is clear that he was to work for
the white man, which he has continued
to do. We must go according to the
wishes of the Great Spiret. 1t is very
good for the white man to read and
write, but very bad for the red man-it
makes white men better, but red men
worse.

Tight Clothing.


A young lady q few weeks ago applied
to a physician for treatment. She suffered
from continual headache, and had done
so for years, and she had other troubles.
The physician examined her thoroughly,
and satisfied herself the physician was
a woman) as to the causes of the patients
maladies
i cannot treat you," said the doctor,
unless you follow my instructions inn
plicitly. But if you promise 10 do so, |
think your health will improve immedi
ately and will soon be entirely restored"
The patient promised entire compli-
ance with the instructions of the physi-
clan.
The first thing for you to do is to take
off your corsets, or wear them so loosely
that your vital organs will not be at all
compressed even when you take full
breath. Then suspend all your clothing
from your shoulders, and have nothing
hang from your hips. Procure pair of
low heeled shoes about two sizes larger
than you wear now. Give up drinking
tea or coffee, or take them very weak.
At first you may miss the stimulus, but
only for few day S. Eat nourishing food
at regular intervals, and go to bed early
and get your sleep out. Walk to and
from your place of business 50 as to get
all the exercise possible for you in the
open air.
A little medicine was given the patien
for some local trouble, but treatment was
relied on for the main difficulties. She
did exactly as her physician told her.
In few days she was free from head
ache, and in few weeks she was enjoy
ing dregree of health up to that time
entirely unknown to her. The heart
was able without check from tight cloth
ing to do its work her lungs had full
play, and could purify the blood without
hindrance from corset laees; the abdom-
inal organs no longer crowded down
upon the delicate organs below them,
performed their functions without inter
fering with any other organs of the
body; elasticity gradually came back to
the step of the young woman, color came
to her face, light to her eye and cheer
fulness born of good health TO her heart.
The physician from whose mouth this
statement was received averred that the
good results this patient enjoyed were
directly from the treatment she received
and gave herself, and not from the medi-
ciue-N. y. Sun.

Packing Butter for Winter Use,

For the benefit of such ofour readers
as desire to pack away butter now for use
later on is here given, in brief, the meth
cd of preserving butter employed by d.
II. Burrell & Co, Little Falls, n. Y, and
published in their annual catalogue;
"With reference to the holding Of but
ter, our method here is, during the hot
months, to churn the cream until the but
ter comes in small gFanues about the
size of kernels of wheat, when we draw
of the BdttertififK and wash the granular
butter in cold water while il is in the
churn, turning the churn a few times,
then drawing the water off, and finally
washing it with brine. Then We take
oak casks which have been previously
scalded out with brine and thoroughly
clensed place in the bottom of the cask
a layer of salt, with q little saltpetre in
it then put in the butter, filling the cask
to the top, then putting on a cloth. and
over the cloth a pailful of salt, then put
liDE tne htdu III TIE CdSh StCulCi13 hiiN-
ing the hoops down tight, finally pouring
in brile through small hole bored in
tie head until the cask is filled.
"The cask is then stored away in Il
cool place and watched for couple Of
weeks, pouring in brine so as TO keep it
full, but when finally it has taken up all
the brine it will, we drive a plug in the
the hole and let the cask remain until
such time as we desire to sell the butter,
when we open the cask and take out suf-
ficient butter to churn in the buttermilk
that results from the churning of the
cream on that day, and by churning this
granular butter in The buttermilk for a
few moments its flavor is frcshened.
Then we take the butter from the churn,
work, salt pack in tubs as usual, and it is
very seldom that the sharpest buyer can
tell that this butter has not been freshly
made The tubs in which it is picked
are fresh and bright, and there is moth
ing to indicate that it is old, and in fact
it is fresh, because each of the butter
granules has been surrounded by strong
brine, thus excluding the air and retain
ing the aroma"

Smaller Crops and Better Pay.

1t is small not large, ciops that We
need more Of. My minimum crops have
invariably been more profitable, and |
have heard more farmers make the same
remark. Would it not be well for our
farmers to combine to produce less for
few years of ali staple crops, thereby
thoroughly cleaning up the surplus and
getting better returns for our labor than
we have received for the last decade
Certainly we have the same right TO com
bine TO limit production as have coal or
oil companies, millers and manufacturers.
Some may say that it is our duty to our
selves and country to do our best in our
chosen calling-but best for whom? If
we can do better by producing less and
getting more for it, why not do it, as long
as other producers are doing the same
thing and we have TO exchange our pro
ducts for theirs?
Why should farmers be the only class
of producers that cannot establish price
for their commodities When we buy
we have to paw the price asked when
we sell we have TO take the pittanee the
purchaser sees fit to offer. Surely, no
class of laborers work as many hours for
as little pay as the farmer, and it IS time
our calling was more remunerative. Can
this be done by producing more or less E?
/ am of the opinion that General Butler
was right when he said our trouble is
not overproduction, but underconsump-
tion," and the question is, shall We in
crease the consumption offirm products?
Certainty not by increasing the quantity,
but by improving the quality. Every
one knows that soggy potatoes, stale eggs,
rancid butter, ETC., last much longer than
good fresh No. articles. If all our pro-
ducts were the very best, much more
would be consumed, thus making a great
er demand and more remuneratiye prices.
Many of our wide awake farmers can
make part of their productions an ac-
tual necessity to one or more families in
our large cities at paying prices by sup
plying these products regularly, fresh,
sweet and wholesome I know this by
experience, for my customers often tell
me that they prefer to purchase farm
products Of the producer, especially eggs
and butter.
1t is laudable for practical farmers to
experiment, investigate and produce
maximum crops, bat tits more profitable
to produce the best and get good pay for
them.-.imericaH Agricali,1-id.

Oh wealth with all wealth Of grace,

OF gates OF pearl and dazzling light.

And things all strange TO mortal sight.
But in the sfterward Of years
1t is more familiar place;
A home unhurt by sighs and tears,
Where wRiteth many well-known face
Where little children plsy and sing.
And maidens and the old men bring
Their tributes 10 the gracious King.

It grows more re- I d - by day;
Not strange or cold. but very dear

Where No sea toDcheth, making moan,
Where none are poor, or sick or lone,
The place where we shall md our own
And as we think Of all we knew,
Who there have met aud part no more,
our longing hearts desire home too,
With all the strife and trouble DER;
So POOR the world now they have gone.
We scarcely dare 10 think upon
The year. before out rest Is won.
And yet our Father knoweth best
The JOY or sadness that we need.
The time when we may take our rest,
And be from sin and sorrow freed,
So we VIII wait with patient grace,
Til in that blessed gathering place
We meet our friends aud see His face.
