A Good Plant Stand.

Several years ago had plant-table
made which has proved entirely satis-

inc by their looks. l have never seen
one like it, and there is no patent on
it, so any one can $50 and do like

top; around the bottom of the inside is
a cleat on which rests Stats, like those
of bedStead, on these rest zinc pan
that Just fits the inside like a sink, the
upper edge turned over stout wire.
The advantages of this stand over any
other that | have seen are these: The
plants stand on a level, so all share the
sun alike; the stand is easily turned
around once week, so the plants grow
evenly and not one-sided as we often
see them; can be easily pinned up in
newspapers on a cold night, or when
sweeping, to keep off the dust. Mine
just goes through the door endwise.
and having stout casters can be easily
trundled to the kitchen for a weekly
bath. You can keep plants in pots,
setting the smaller between the larger
ones, some containing vines near the
edge to droop over. In this case you
will need an inch of coarse sand to put
in the bottom of the pan to keep them
moist. The plants can be set directly
in the soil. You do not have to water
as often, and the plants can be arrang-
ed to look better.
You will put in the bottom of the
pan an inch of drainage made from
pieces of broken pots, or charcoal
broken small with sphagnum moss on
top then fill in little soil, slip the
plants out of the pots, pick off the
drainage, and arrange as you wish, fill
in the soil carefully, pressing it into
every crevice so no airholes are left.
Leave an inch at the top for watering.
Give good watering and shade for a
few days until they are settled.
You can fill this table with all flower
ing plants. or ill it with plants grown
for their foliage alone, and have q
handsome table all winter without
flower. Good HouSebeepjpg.

Brook Farm.

From reminiscent article by Robert
Carter in the Century we quote the fol-
lowing: cit was delightful gather
inc of men and women of superior Gull
tivation, who led charming life for
a few years. laboring in its fields and
philandering in its pleasant woods. 1t
was little too much of picnic for
serious profit, and the young men and
maidens were rather unduly addicted
to moonlight wanderihgs in the pine
grove, though it is creditable to the
sound moral training of New England
that little or no harm came of these
wanderings- least not to the maid
ems. So far as the relation of the sexes
is concerned, the Brook Farmers, in
spite of their free manners, were as
pure. | believe, as any other people.
THE enterprise failed pecuniarily,
after seeming for some years to have
succeeded. and Brook Farm
became the site of the town poor-house.
Hawthorne, who lost all his savings in
the enterprise, has sketched it, in some
respects faithfully, in his "Blithdale
Romance" | may remark, by the
way, that while he was a member he
was chiefly engaged in taking care of
the pigs, that being found by expert
ment to be the branch of farm labor
to which his genius was best adapted"

Exercising the Devil in India.

A strange case of superstition was
recently investigated before the cor
oner of Bombay. A Hindoo mill hand
named Ramji Dali had for some time
been suffering from swollen ksee-joints
and pains in various parts of the body.
On Aug. "a he went to the mill to get
some wages due him and on his return
was taken i'll on the road. He was
brought home on the back of friend
in an almost unconscious state and
was placed in a sitting posture, being
held up by his father. A man named
Dec, who was present, suggested that
he was possessed of devil, in order to
expel which Dec swayed himself about
in front of the sick man, seized hold of
his hair and demanded of the devil who
he was. Not receiving reply, he
struck the sick man violently with a
rattan. when the latter fell back in a
dying conditions; but before his death
another friend took the rattan and beat
the patient, both men swaying their
bodies to and fro and protesting to be
possessed with the spirit of god. The
fogging was intended to drive out the
devil. Dali died almost Immediately
without a complaint. The widow mar
rated these facts to the coroner and de-
scribed both floggings to be very vio-
lent. The medical evidence show
ed that there were several bruises on
the back and an abrasion on the right
hip, but that the cause of death was
Aemorrhage from rupture of the spleen,
which was probably not due to the
tiogging. The jury found a verdict ac-
cordingly, adding that there was no
evidence to show how the spleen be-
came ruptured.-LO71dO7l Times.

seventy-nye miles from Jacksonville,
Oregon, is to be found the Great Sunken
Lake, the deepest lake in the world.
1t is said to average 1000 feet down to
the water on all sides. The depth of
the water is unknown. 1t is about
fifteen miles long by four and a half
wide.
E. D. Sloan, of Klamath Agency,
found recently in a cremation mound
on the Klamath Indian reservation a
Harrison badge of the campaign of
1871. The LOG cabin and profile
view of General Harrison show quite
plainly. Probably these Indians got
the badge from General John G. Ere
mont's party when they travelled
through that country.
In Iceland there are no prisons and
no officers answering to our policemen.
In 1874 it celebrated the one-thousandth
anniversary of its colonization, and at
the same time became independent of
Denmark, though subject to the king
of Denmark as the head of the Ice
landic government. Iceland's new
government is thoroughly republican
in spirit, all citizens having equal
rights and perfect religious liberty.

About SaIamanders.

Considerable ignorance exists, even
among persons of education, as to the
habits of the salamander. The mere
mention of this harmless little be-
trachian recalls to the minds of most
people mystic ideas with respect to fire.
eating and fre-inhabiting creatures,
which have probably caused many Of
the poor little brutes to b. burnt by
experimental philosophers who should
have been far above p belief in such alb
surdities. The spotted salamander is
the color of lamp-black, with numerous
large yellow spots and stripes, and is
very common all over Southern
Europe. as well as in Northern Africa.
1t haunts all manner of dark and cool
places, such as cavities under logs OF
wood, and holes in old walls, where
they can find supply of insects, worms
or sluos. All the salamander's move
ments are performed with such absurd
solemnity that the most hardened rep
tile-hater could not be uninterested.
Sometimes the operation of swallowing
worm will last twenty minutes.

YOu Kissed Me

You kissed mel My head had dropped low on
your breast
With feeling of shelter and infinite rest,
And holy emotion my tongue dared not
Flashed up in flame from my heart to my
cheek.
Heart beat against heart in their passionate
fold,
Your Sances seem drawing my soul through
AS the sun draws the mist from the seas to
the skies,
And your lips chung to mine till prayed in
They might never unclasp from that rap
turOus kiss.
You kissed me! Ny heart and my breath, and
In delirious joy for the moment stood still,
Life had for me then no temptations, no
No vista of pleasure outside of yonr arms;
And were l this instant an angel, possessed
Of the peace ana the joy that are given the
blest,
Iwould fling my white robes unrepiningly
down
And tear from my forehead its beautiful
To nestle once more in that heaven of rest,
Your lips upon NINE my head upon your
breast,
Reeled and swooned like drunken man fool
ish with wine,
And thought 'twere delicious to die then, If
death
Would ONE while my mouth were yet moist
with your breath.
'Twere delicious to die if my heart might grow
cold
While your arms clasped me round in that
passionate fold.
And these are the questions I ask day and
night:
Must my life taste but once such exquisite de-
light?
Would you care if your breast were my shelter
as then?
And If Won wera here would Won kiss me
again?

The Shy Man.

No man can be diverted so success
fully, writes Clara Belle, " as by being
allowed to talk up his pet subject to
some one who is curious and ignorant.
1t is a good rule to keep as silent as
possible till YOU get hint at the mental
tendencies of the man in your company.
Shy men need only to fancy they are
not going to be required to talk or be
brilliant, and their tongues promptly
loosen. A word about the WEAKNESS OF
society, the shallowness of society men,
the relief that little quiet is, sets him
going. All you need to do then is to
keep your eyes earnestly attentive. 1t
isn't even necessary to comprehend
what he is saying.
The man who is always inclined to
be complimentary and fiirtations is
rather more difficult. He won't be en-.
tertained unless he has an opportunity
to display his pet accomplishments and
a Irritation needs two clever persons.
Even Mr.. Frivolity, however, will talk
by the hour of his last conquest, and
how he did it; so you may escape being
made the object of his next.
Let the silent man be silent. If you
can accomplish this without letting him
feel you are expecting him to talk, you
will entertain him completely. Never
appear to exert yourself. Have big
cargo of silent interest on hand. Be
adroit at gathering up the opinions a
man lets fall, and returning them to
him in your own words. Nothing
original will please him half so well.
Be ignorant on the subjects he likes to
expound, and never permit yourself to
seem bored.

Humane and Effective.

When Dr. Cyrus Edison, of the board
of health. was a medical student he
was, like most medical students, full of
life and fun, says the n. Y. Herald.
He lived with his father in the annexed
district and this story is told on him:
He was much troubled by the growing
of an early rising rooster owned by a
neighbor, which used every morning to
take his place under the young students
window and raise such racket that
sleep was impossible.
The fowl was favorite of its owner,
and every effort to buy him or get rid
of him in any way was futile. Young
Edison puzzled his brains not little to
find way and at last struck a bright
idea. Early one morning. just as his
enemy had started his pipes, he armed
himself with sharp lancet, crept
up behind the unsuspecting fowl,
caught him, and in less time than it
takes to tell it had severed his vocal
chord.
1t made the coons laugh thereafter
to see the rooster get up on the fence,
flap his wings and go through all the
motions of growing with never a sound
coming from his beak. DR.. Edison
never had any trouble in sleeping after
that, though.

in this direction which is to be hoped
