He turned sternly from the slight,
uuivering figure, convulsed with sobs,
and, leaning his elbow on the mantle
piece, gazed darkly into the empty

"Then it is true" he said, as the frown
deepened on his brow.
''Forgive me!' she sobbed, rocking
to and fro in her grief and abase-
ment.
'But you told me you had never loved
before-that no man had ever stirred
your heart"
''Not as 1 loved you" she cried,
wildly.
"And yet you admit that you were
engaged to Ferguson, of the class OF
1872"
YES" she murmured.
"And that before that you had an

"And with Graham Of 1852"
"No, no." she cried, mot with him

For an instant he hesitated, as If hi

HERE AND THERE.

If YOU want rhubarb pies early next
spring, work manure from the pig pen
into the soil about the plants this fall.
"A small farm may be made larger
without extending its area, by deepen
ing and enriching the soil and more
thorough cultivation.
If there is surplus grain or hay 1t
may pay to buy very poor stock to tat
An, but the stock on the farm should
never be allowed to fall off in condition.
AT this season the ewes should be
carefully attended to. They must be in
good condition for providing plenty Of
milk to the lambs that come in early
next season.
Fall pigs must be pushed rapidly, SO
as to have them well grown before cold
weather oyertakes them. The very
young pig, if exposed to severe cold,
will soon become stunted and grow
slowly.
The best way to get rid of willows
or other trees liable to sprout from tho
stump is to girdle them and let them
stand until they cease to produce leaves.
BY this plan all trouble with sprouts
will be avoided.
Six thousand ducks are annually
marketed from the farm of prominent
vet transformations farmer in Massa-
chusetts, who comprehends the idea OF
handling his stock in way to yield him
return quick, with little expense for
their keeping.
-Gravelly soils, that would not other
wise be suitable for corn-crops, mako
excellent locations for grapes, though
the grape will be better on deep, rich
soil. Old bones, leather refuse and lit
ter of all kinds may be buried around
the roots of the vines with advantage.
1t is a curious fact, so announced,
that if cider is sealded to 125 to 1870 de-
grees. it will not make vinegar, as this
heat destroys the bacteria that form
vinegar. This same temperature de-
stroys the bacteria in the silo, and this
is perhaps the explanation why it re-
mains comparatively sweet.
-Well-cured hay is nearly as con-
centrated as grain in proportion to
weight Corn contains about 10 per
cent of moisture and hay Is per cent,
but hay contains three times as much
mineral matter as corn and more nitro
gen. Hay, however, contains ten times
as much crude fber'as corn and less fat.
The Farm Journal insists that
calves, colts and all young animals
should be treated so that they will come
to YOU as friend. If you feel ugly and
must kick something, let it be a log OF
a stone wall, or something that will not
suffer. A few experiments in this line
may cure you Of the habit Of feeling
ugly.
-Hoard's Dairyman says that, ton foI

unthreshed oats, cut when the grain il

Brave, mighty oaks that the storms can with

Hands may be empty that fain would bcstow,
Feet chained by pain that loves crrands would

Pity for strangers and grief for our kin
Walens each morning. each night shuts us In.
Tangles of all things that contrary go,
Failure OF hope, to the slip on the snow,
Every thing earthly since Eden bore curse
Betterod may be, while it might have bsen
worse.
Roses still bloom and shall never cease bloom

Music of nature, and days long delight,
Fill the heart full as the stiffness the night
Boon Of our work with its earnest achieving,
Shaming the toiler who needs must be grieving,
Helping the comradc who fell mid the whirl-
This be the motto our flag shall unfurl;

Hope never dying love bearing all test,
Serving the Lord, and just trusting the rest.

nntoherInr and Hog.KIlllng.

So far as possible every farmer should
fatten and butcher a sufficient supply of
meat, at least for his own family, while
a few sides of bacon to sell during the
next summer will not come amiss 1t is
poor economy to sell fat hogs or cattle
in the fall and then buy bacon and beef
the next summer. 1t is paving rather
heavy interest and should, as far as
possible, be avoided. While large, fat
hogs give the most lard, good medium
hogs make the best meat.
1t is not necessary to select the cold
est, most uncomfortable day in the win
ter to butcher. Even in what we con.
slder hard winter, there are days that
are reasonably pleasant, when work Of
this kind can be done not only better but
with more comfort. The wood should
be made ready, the kettles arranged
and supply Of water proglded the day
before, so that no unnecessary time may
be lost and the hogs can be cleaned anS
hung up and web washed and draiiel
before cutting up

Usually the bettez plan WI be 20 eat

laying the pieces out TO cool thoroughly
before sailing down.
For dry sailing good boxes can be used
Pepper added to the salt will improve
the quality of the meat. It will also be
a considerable help II each piece ia
rubbed hard with the salt instead q
simply sprinkling it on, especially with
the hams and shoulders
Trim these to a good shape, the small
pieces can be worked into sausage to
good advantage. The head and feet can
be made into head-cheese. Cut every
thing into a convenient shape for hand
ng-backbones, ribs, heads, feet and
iowls. 1t can be done with less trouble
now than later. These should be salted,
but il the weather is cold not 50 much
as the other meat. II the weather 10
moderate, so that the meat does not
freeze hard in week, It VIII be found =
good plan to take it out and salt again,
rubbing as before. If the weather is
severely cold, this should be done as
soon as the weather moderates sufficient
ly to thaw out thoroughly. II care is
taken to get the meat properly salted,
there is very little, If any danger, Of IS
spelling.
Some prefer to pickle rather than to
salt down dry. A very good plan Is TO
take clean barrels and lay in the pieces
packing as closely as possible, sprinkling
a good layer Of salt over each and then
covering with water. All the salt that
this water will dissolve should be put IN
and the addition of small quantity OF
saltpetsf will improve the whole. In
about three days this should be care
fully poured off and fresh brine be added.
Others prefer to cook the brine, TAX
ing 70 pounds Of good salt, u Of apound
of saltpeter, pounds Of brown sugar
and 4 of a pound of pepper; put in q
kettle and bring to boil, sl5imming on
whatever sediment rises on the surface
and pouring the clear brine over the
meat while hot. The brine should be
made strong enough to bear up an egg.
The meat should be well covered with
brine. After laying in brine thrf
weeks it is taken out and smoked the
same as If dry salted. This plan can be
followed whether the brine is put in
cold or hot or, if desired, the meat car
be left in the brine until it is wanted
for use. Good pickeled pork, if proper
ly managed, makes good meat lol
summer use.
Beef can be picked in the same way
and can be kept long time and will be
of good quality. With beef, a good plaI
is to put on the brine and let it stand
two or three days and then pour OF anC
: put on fresh, though some will cook thu
brine over and put back. Il cold brin'
is used the better plan is to put o.
fresh. A few pieces can be taken OUT tn

HOW vaccine Virus Is Obtained.

The vaccine virus, used to produce
what we call vaccination, is obtained
by shaving the belly Of young milch
cow, or even calf. After the shaving
process has been accomplished to the
satisfaction of the operator, the skin is
scarifed and the wound inoculated with
the virus from an animal already in use.
A sore is thus produced without injury
to the beast. After about week or
ten days kind of matter begins to flow
from the abrasion; this is the vaccine
virus used by the surgeons. Goose
quills, which have been scraped with a
knife so as to present a rough surface,
are rubbed in the fuid-not filled with
it as some suppose. From 1000 to 1O,-
900 quilts, varying with tho different
animals, are thus provided with virus
from single abrasion on cows belly.
If YOU should closely examine one OF
these quills after it has been ''medi'
Gated" you would be unable to detect
anything wrong with it. The blood
from the scar on the arm moistens the
virus and causes it to have the desired
effect.-St. Louis Republic.

the direction of letter received lately

Joaquin Miller's writing is illegible 'H
itself, and is rendered doubly difficult
by the fact that the authors spelling is
of the most eccentric kind. But who
was the literary man who once said
'sSense and knowledge come by expert
ence and study, but 7the power to spell!
correctly is the direct gift of God?
Many other authors openly acknowledge
their photographed imperfections and
depend upon the intelligent proof
reader to supply the missing vowels and
consonants. Goeth himself, who took all
knowledge for his province, was fain tc
leave spelling as terra tac0gntt9. The
Father of his Country spelled familiar
words one way, while Lady Washington
spelled them another, and neither man
aged to BIO correct. Nay, it is well
known that William Shakespeare spelled
his own name in several different ways

Concerning HydrophebiA


Our knowledge concerning the condl-
tons under which the poison which
creates hydrophobia acts has been some
what advanced by the recent expert
ments of NJ. tialtier, Of Paris. According
to the experiments the dried virus has
its poisonous properties destroyed in from
four TO six days. On the other hand,
earlier experiments OF the same savant
show that an animal which has died of
rabies may retsin the poison in that part
of the brain calied the iuedulla ohlongata

that this fact may lie of importance in
cases where persons have been bitten by
animals supposed 10 be rabid II the body
