Interest i'm Widows.

A pleasing proof ofthe general in.
terest in widows has just been furnished
by the republication in London and
Scotland of Police Sergeant Oliver
Tims's opinion IN the matter which
were communicated originally to a
Sun reporter. The student policeman
then remarked that history was full of
evidence OF the personal worth of
widows, and declared the fact that
Charles II, Frederick the Great, Lord
Nelson, Napoleon, Disrael1 and George
Washington had married widows
proved alike their own astuteness and
the estimable character OF widows
generally. The notion pleased the
English and Scotch editors, and they
at once proceeded to lay before their
subscribers the eloquent eulogies and
convincing argument of the sergeant.
1t isn't often that what a New York
policeman says finds its way into print
across the ocean, and Sergeant Tins is
delighted by the circumstance.
He modestly says, however, that it
was not SO much what he said that
caught the British editors, or the fact
that he said it, but the perennial,
interest that blooming widows possess

Macaulay as a Speaker,

Men listened to Macaulay with re-
spect, weighed his arguments, reflected
on what he had said, were often con-
WINGED, sometimes converted; but no.
where did crowds of eager listeners
and ardent admirers bend beneath
the music of his voice or the lightning
glance of his eye. An old friend OF
mine, recently dead, who had often
heard him and remembered him per-
fectly, assured me, however, that he
was a great power fifty years ago, and
he believed that his oratorical tri-
umphs hardly received full credit in
those days.
Macaulay himself said that one of
his chief defects as a. public speaker
was his extraordinary rapidity of ut
terance, which spoiled the effect of his
words. His speeches resembled care
fully-prepared essays, delivered with
incredible rapidity and some want of
lElpressIveness, rather than the spon-
taneous outburst Of the, orators full
heart. Fluency and great facility in
finding the right words are not an un-
mixed gain to the speaker. Appropri-
ate pauses and emphasis are even
more important; otherwise torrent
OF words lacks impressiveness. Then
the management of the voice counts
for very much. A speech that flows
on like a rope unwound from a cylin-
der is not a good one. Again, to be
successful a speech must be enlivened
with anecdotes or humor; people can
always read for solid instruction, but
a platform speaker must amuse and
please rather than teach.-The Gentle
mans Magazine.

season has been very favorable over
the whole winter wheat area Reports
to the department. of agriculture show
that the condition Of winter wheat is
higher than it has been for nine years.
Danger is to be anticipated in some
quarters from the Hessian fly, but it
is not very serious. Wheat is thrifty,
stocky and well stooled out, so that
1T is in Il better condition than usual
to withstand the ravages of insect
enemies. The fattering prospects for
large crop Of wheat are accompanied
by conditions that insure good prices.
Harvest will find this country with a
very low reserve old wheat on hand,
and even II our next crop comes up to
It's present promises and turns out to
be very large one, it is most likely
that it will all be needed and taken at
good prices. The present outlook is
a very favorable one. A big crop of
dollar wheat would lift the farmers of
this country out of the slough OF des-
pond and place them on the solid
road to prosperity. Every line of
trade and ever channel of business
would also be benefited. The corn
area of 1891 will doubtless be a very
large one. The present high prices will
stimulate production. Too many
farmers had to buy dear corn this sea-
son, and they will make the greatest
effort not to be caught again. Farm

The Child'S Left Hand.

Why do not mothers seek to cult
vate all of their little ones capabil-
ties and facilities? Why, for instance,
do you teach the child to skillfully
use the right hand, and ignore such
possibilities for his left? Why do you
mourn if the child be naturally cleft
handed" and seek to cripple his free
use OF the unruly member? One would
almost suspect it was in the nature
OF a. crime to be ambidextrous, so
persistently are children admonished
to ''Take the needle in your other
hand, dear!" "Why will that bow
drive nails with that hammer in his
left hand?" One constantly hears
such lament from the lips of mothers
and teachers. Left-handed? And why
not? Either-handed, rather, as would
always result from equal attention
to the muscular use OF both hands.
In the earlier stages of learning to
write, children are apt to complain of
their hand '*getting tired,'' from the
cramped attitude of the fingers; all
this would be obviated by alternate
use of the left hand I know a man
who has only his left hand to use. and
it is wonderful what dextrous use he
puts 1t to; earpentering, the pruning
OF his large orchards; in fact, all the
multifarious employnaents of the farm
are accomplished with speed and
precision: 1t is only the 1eft-handed
greeting that ONE notices in our neigh
borly intercourse, and even that does
not, after a.few times, seem either odd
or unusual-From the Ladies Home

Birds Pulling Corn,

~Blackbirds are often very trouble
some about pulling corn when it first
breaks ground and until it is too tall
for them to handle. They have no
fear Of the lines around the field that
would keep off the COWS, and they are
too numerous to be shot, and too
brave to be afraid of scarecrows, or
OF man with a gun when he is more
than a gunshot away. Corn they
want, corn they will have, and it is
the best way to let them have it. A
peck OF corn scattered around the
borders of a ten-acre field, putting the
larger part on the edge next the swamp,
where they most do congregate, will
usually satisfy their appetite while
the corn is growing, unless they are
very numerous, and they would rather
pick it up than pull it from the hill.
If one feeding is not enough, give an
other, as it takes but little more corn
and mnch less labor than it would to
replant the field. Do not poison the
corn, as the blackbirds, robins and
other birds that would eat it are
troublesome only a few days in the
year, and the farmers friends, in these
days OF numerous insect pests, the
rest Of the time.

APPEARANCES AGAINST HIM.
Dilemma OF a Prohibitionist Who
Was Escorting Two Inc briates,

Dilemma Of Prohibitionist Who
Was Escorting Two Inebriates.
One OF the ablest of the tutors in a
leading New England college was at
the same time an uncompr omising foe
to everything of the character OF
strong drink
He not only practiced all the teach
lngs OF the prohibition science in his
own person, but never allowed an OBJ
portunity to pass unused Of publicly
declaring against Intoxicating bever-
ages and general dissipation. Hence
his standing in the matter was par
ticularly well known.
His rigidity of views on this subject,
however, did not prevent his owing to
several little hobbies and goodness
OF heart that sometimes had the effect
OF taking the moral partly out of his
precepts.
One of these hobbies was his ardent
love OF botany, and his gentleness of
nature came out in his overlooking
and hiding many of the collegians' lit
tie faults.
One morning early he was returning
rom botanlzlng excursion, when by
the roadside he saw a freshman who
was plainly the worse from being out
all night. He had evidently tried to
make his way to his lodgings, but the
effort was too much.
Stipulus, the tutor, reused him and,
linking his arm to his own, continued
on his way. But what was his sur
prise, on going some little distance, to
meet another student in quite the
same condition as the first.
For a moment the inconsistency of
hlm-a stanch Notwithstanding a
part OF a rescuing ship to these wrecks
OF dissipation made him pause, but his
heart got the better of it.
Lifting the second fallen one he
steadled the pair as we'll as he could
and kept on his way.
This double burden was not easy
to navigate. and he was by no means
powerful man their webbing gradu-
ally impaired a like motion to his
own steps. And at the very moment
when this wave-like movement had,
so to speak, reached it's climax, on
turning a corner he came face to
face with several members of the
senior class.
The surprise was so great that, not
knowing whether they had given him
the slightest sign of recognition, he
failed to recover himself, oreven think
OF asking assistance until they had
disappeared. .
Conscious of the purity of his heart
and motives, however, he saw his
cargo home and then went about his
duties at the college, only to find
the report meeting him on every
hand that that morning he had been
seen in such a condition on the public
street that it was necessary for two
good-natured students to almost
break their backs trying to carry him
home.
OF course the matter was made
plain to the faculty, but while Stipu-
lus is no less a teetotaler than ever,
he wouldn't now stoop to pick up
man if he saw him fall out of a bal
loon.-Philadelphia Times.

Dry and Wet Fodder,

An interesting and instructive ex-
pertinent ill feeding swine is reported
from Germany. It was formerly be-
leved that the moistening of the food
was desirable; and the experiment
was undertaken to compare the effects
OF the same food when given in a. drv
state and when moistened or made
into soup.
The experiment was made with four
pigs OF the same litter, and continued
rom November %, 1889, to March s.
1880. The food consisted Of beets
and potatoes in equal amounts.
creamery refuse, swill and rye and
barley meal. At the beginning about
one and a half pounds each OF the rye
ana barley meals were fed per head;
later this was increased to two pounds.
Inc pigs were fed three times a dav.
Two received the grain meals mixed
With the other food, which was wet,
and two received it separately, in drv
state, after the wet food had been
eaten clean.
The gain in live weight during the
period of the experiment was as fol-
lows: The two pigs to which the grain
was led dry gained respectively l19
and 1l5 pounds-a total OF 233
pounds; the Others gained 100 and
Is pounds-a total OF l76 pounds.
This shows a difference of 81 pounds
IN favor Of feeding the grain dry. 1t
should be noted, however, that the
gain IN the two dry fed pigs was near
" equal while there was marked
dltference--no less than "a pounds-in
the gain Of the two wet-fed ones. One
of the second lot must therefore have
been less vigorous and thrifty than it's
mate. If the same relative gain had
been made the difference between the
totals of the two lots would have been
considerably less-say thirty-six in.
stead OF fifty-seven pounds. The les
son taught by the experiment would
still have been marked, however. Ex-
perience in this country points to a
similar conclusion.

Growing a Diversity of Crops,

The expenses ofthe farm and family
go on through all the year. 1t is
almost impossible to make profit un-
less there is equal continuity in sell
Ing. There may be and should be
special crops that furnish the bulk OF
the money received from the farm; but
if this is drawn upon by continual
drain not relieved by any new supply,
1T will be drawn down to nothing. For
years southern farmers have depend
ed wholly on their sales of cotton, and
though this is one of the most profit
able crops grown, it has been impossi-
blefor southern planters to keep out OF
debt until they adopted the northern
plan of growing diversity of crops.
