SOCIETY'S BARRED GATES,
A Sensible Letter from One of New York;


"A Sensible Letter from One of New Yorl<'s
-Four Hundred
1t has often been asked: Is money an
open sesame to the rank and file of the
ultra society people of New York, COM
monty designated the -Four Hundred?"
Of course, upper society is naturally
made up of moneyed people. To sus-
tain ones position and to give as liber-
ally and as generously as you receive,
it is absolutely necessary to have at dis
posal an abundant supply of money. In
other words, society means the expend-
iture of money.o
This being the case, people with
money gravitate as surely toward the
ranks of the -Four Hundred as the
needle of compass points in the direc
ton of the North Pole. But, although
money is the handspring of the in
tricate machinery which operates So
ciety, there are several smaller wheels
which must also be kept in motion be-
fore one can gain admission to the
charmed circle.
Education and refinement must sup
plement the possession of money, other
wise the applicant for social recognition
will be coldly received, and in short
Tune maze 10 1eci tnaU MS or ner COM
pany is undesirable. If society is de-
termined to shut its doors against a
newcomer, the unluclly one might as
well give up and save himself from
further Sights and embarrassments
Society's power is that of a despot. No
one. no matter what his wealth may be,
can successfully take it by the horns
and expect to receive any thing but
bruised sensibilities in return.
Accordingly hitherto unknown man
or woman who suddenly becomes
wealthy, but who lacks the other re-
quirements, had better not attempt to
become one of the -Four Hundred. 1t
usually takes suddenly-made rich FAM
ily two generations before it becomes
accustomed to the little traits and habits
of the wealthy, and before its members
can enter with BETTING grace the
crayed-for kingdom.
Society is made up of educated and
shrewd people, who are quick to detect
any flaws in the personnel of new
comer.-W. l.. Hammersley, in n. \.

The question was recently asked: SIS
silage ever fed to horses?" In answer it
may be said that horses eat it readily
and it is our practice to put the sweep
ings from the cows feeding-floor in
rack where the colts can run to it. This
includes more or less silage. The
leading reason why more of it is not fed
to horses is that those who have it are
engaged in winter dAirying and it is
consequently needed by the cows. 1t is
a mistake however, to deprive horses
of something in the nature of roots. In
our own practice potatoes are fed to the
horses and sheep daily. The principle
which becomes an active poison in po-
tatoes when exposed to sunlight is good
(bad) for worms, so that horses and
colts getting a mess of potatoes regu-
larly do not crowd out the stable walls
nor rub the hair off their tai1s.-Breed'

POWER OF KINDNESS.
without 1t Our pilgrimage Fart
Would Indeed BE Bitter.

without 1t Our Pilgrimage on Earth
Would Indeed he Bitter.
How few there are who estimate Alright
the power of kindly words and deeds!
and yet what mortal being has not at
some time or other felt their benefit and
sweetness? How many world-wOrn and
crime-hardened heart has been SOftened
into penitence and tenderness by their
holy influence! How many weary lot
has been cheered and frightened by
their gentle sunshine. What music there
is in kindly-uttcred expression of SYM
pathy, what radiance in Il gentle, APP
proving smile! And how little do these
Heaven-entailed duties of life cost to
the giver, and how much do they confer
on the receiver. Tritles they may seem,
Judged by the cold calcula lions of some;
but to those who think and feel as Chris
tians ought, t.h,ty are sweet and holy
duties, for they are the wayside flowers
of earth, which makes its ofttimes
weary path seem homelike and pleas
ant. Without their gentle influence how
would life's cares and perplexitics hard
en- and corrode! how would its trials and
sorrows wither and blight the heart.
Without the friendly exchange of
kindly words ala deeds, without the
sunshine Of loving looks and smiles of
welcome and encouragement, a house
NAV be habi ton, but never truly a
home Why then should we neglect or
ignore those gentle courtesies of life in
our intercourse with our kind, and seem
or be harsh and cold and unloving,
when it would cost us so little to win
the grateful memory OF human hearts,
or shed the balm of consolation on some
wounded spirit? Were it not for these
gentle and holy charities of daily life,
our pilgrimage here would be bitter,
and our crosses heavy indeed. Let US
then try to cultivate a loving, forbear-
ing spirit, and show its influence in our
words and deeds. Let US remember
that a loving, kindly nature is the dis
tinpuishing mark of the true Christian,
and an emanation from Him whose
name is Love: Him, who while here,
God though He was, and ruler of the
mighty universe, scorned not to love,
svmpathize with. and seek and accept
the love and sympathy of the lowly
ones who followed Him in His path OF
pain.-N. y. Ledger

From the floor up three feet the pens

Under the roosts are two or three wide

a long, low door; through the doorway
the manure is scraped into box on the

We are asked if it is advisable to seed
down orchards and keep them in grass.
We suppose that reference is made to
the apple orchard. Peach orchards, and,
we believe, pear orchards, should be
cultivated as long as they stand. The
apple orchard should certainly be cul-
tivated for three or four .years, and
then it is better to SOW it to clover. The
grasses proper make too stiff a sward.
Still, many orchards are sown to grasses
and many are rained by permitting
them to remain III grain. There are
orchards that would be greatly benefited
by at least digging around the trees
when they have stood in grass for
long time. Clover does not make as
strong sod, and it makes excellent
pasture for the hogs, which, if rung and
kept out of the orchard when the
ground is wet and soft. will do an
orchard good by running in it.-West'

he did not have the appearance of a
man who handled iron and worked in
steel, for he was balancing a billiard
cue over his white knuckles sprepara-
tory to essaying a difficult shot in the
Holman House billiard room. Yet
John Henry Williams, of Cincinnati, a
Dig, athletic-looking fellow, with broad
shoulders and a well-trimmed reddish
beard, was pointed out to me as one of
the best safe experts in the country.
speaking of his business, in which he
mas been engaged for many years, he

Tor no occurrence of this kind takes place

statements which appear in the news
papers after an attack on vault or
safe, showing whether the work was
done by an experienced hand or by an
amateur, are always given by one of
our men. The police get the credit for
content with our remuneration. The
attempts to rob safes and bank
vaults, however, have grown less
frequent within the past few
years, for the expert burglars have dis
covered through experience that in nine
cases out of ten it is utterly impossible
to break open any of the frst-class mod
ern safes or vaults in one night. Be-
sI"es, 1T may seem strange, yet is never

these talented robbers but who has some
peculiar mode of operating which he
carefully conceals from his confeder-
