WORDS or WISDOM.

A country's best defense is its good
name.
Great truths are often said in fewesi
words.
Narrow waists and narrow minds 90
together.
Woman is a miracle of divine contra
dictions.
A fashionable woman is always in
love with herself.
In wishing to extend her empire
woman destroys it.
To a gentleman every woman is lady
in right of her sex.
A handsome woman is jewel; good
woman is a Treasure.
Flattery is like cologne water, to be
smelt of, not swallowed.
Mems muscles move better when their
souls are making merry music.
Live each day as pure as you would
did you know it to be your last.
There is no grief without some benef.
cent provision to soften its intenseness.
Manners are what vex or soothe, cor
rupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize
or refine US.
One means very effectual for the pre-
servation of health is quiet and cheer
full mind, not afflicted with violent pas
sions or distracted with immoderate
cares.
Roughness is needless cause of dis
content; severity breedeth fear; but
rougAness breedeth hate; even reproofs
from authority ought to be grave, and
not taunting.

The Anarchists Manual,

The following manual of rules for the
guidance of full-fedged Anarchist wa:
found on the person of distinguished
plotter against society recently arrested
IN Spain:
l. The first requisite for an Anarchist
"companion" should be an absolute con.
tempt for life.
2. He should recognize no other
country (s;c) OF law than the Social Rev
olution; no other enemies than capital
and the middle classes.
3. Anarchists must never admit any
division among themselves. They should
recognize no other jurisdiction than that
of the Tribunal of Honor named by
themselves.
4. The Anarchists are responsible for
each other. Each is bound to hasten,
at peril of his life, to the defence of his
companions.
s. The Social Revolution must be con.
sidered as the first OF duties and obliga-
tions.
s. The Anarchist should repudiate
every revolutionary movement which has
not the destruction of capital for its aim.
z. No Anarchist may refuse to accom-
plish the mission allotted to him unless
he is physically incapable of undertaking
it. In which case he will be at once re-
placed by another companion.
s. No Anarchist may fill any public
Office without the full assembly's author
ization, nor take part in any nantes
tation foreign to the cause. His unique
care must be for the Revolution.
8. All Anarchists should know each
other and should have no political Sc
crets from each other. They must be-
long to no other group than their OWL, un.
less for the purpose of discovering secrets
profitable to Anarchy, or exposing the
manoevers of treacherous 'companlon,
an accomplish of tho authorities. This
last case will be considered as most
important work done for the cause.
10. Anarchists accept Revolution with
all its consequences, and must bring to
the propagation of their ideas their full
intelligence, energy and courage.
IL. Article for the use of ':comDan-
ions" designated by lot to do deed of
for the faith. The An
archist pursued and obliged to quit
should take refuge ia some
country outside of Elrope-Morocco,
for example.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Feeding the hens sulphur helps the
Matching.
Lice and rats are the two worst ene-
mics of the setting hens.
Exclusive corn feeding often cause:
leg weakness with young poultry.
Never buy or keep cow with small
contracted nostrils. They are sure sign
of inferiority in lung.power.
To thoroughly know what ration yor
can make up and feed to the best advan.
tage careful test is necessary.
Too much grain is often fed at loss;
this is often the case especially in feed
ing whole grain to fattening cattle.
Sending stale eggs to market is a
good way to get reputation that will
stick to you after you are tired of it.
Whole straw is better than hay as q
hen material, but either one is preferable
TO that which is run through cutting
box.
When your birds have bowel disease,
change the food day or two. and change
grit; one-half the troubles are from lack
Of sharp, hard grit.
Many beginners get discouraged in at
tempting to improve the quality of their
hogs because prices get low, but this
should only be an inducement for further
development.
The nests of sitting hens are often the
prolific breeding places Of lice. Keep
them clean, dust with insect powder,
and burn the nest filling as soon as the
brood is out.
This might be called the age of bee
escapes in the Apiarian world. A man
in New York has invented one that he
claims will clear super of bees in from
two to four hours.
The better the soil the larger return it
viii pay for the labor applied to it. The
best way to increase your capital is to
improve the ground. Then it will pay
larger dividends.
Few things will increase the flow Of
milk more than cabbage. Feed the soft
heads and refuse leaves this season, and
you will plant some especially for this
purpose next year.
II you expect any lambs this month.
keep an eye on the flock in case of sud-
den showers, and when folding it at
night. An hour or SO, if exposed, often
means death to the lamb.
I. DO not try to keep too many breeds
Of fowls. You will succeed better with
one or two varieties, with good atten-
tioh, than by trying to keep a dozen
sorts and neglecting them.
IL carefully tended it does not require
D large plot of ground to supply small
fruits for the family. A frien has thirty
raspberry bushes that give him . gallon
per day Through the season.

A HOMEMADE INCUBATOR.

An pcubator may be made of any
simple box with double sides and lined
with flannel or felt to retain the heat.
The heat is provided by a tin box to be
filed with hot water, and the eggs are
put in woolen-lined box or a shelf
above the heater. Care is to be taken to
regulate the heat so that it does not ex
coed 1O4 degrees or fall below eighty
degrees. The latter can only be per-
mitted for a short time once a day 49,

A CONVENIENT VELVET BODICE.

A velvet bodice, made slightly open at
the throat, with velvet sleeves also
slightly open, is most useful addition
to woman's wardrobe. Net or lace
sleeves set in full below the velvet sleeve
can be changed at will to match various
styles and tints of neckdressing. Lace
or folds of chiffon or net are lightly ar
ranged to outline the opening of the
throat. Crossed folds OF crepe de chine
can also be used to raise the bodice front
to any desired height, while the dressy
appearance of the V outline yet remains.

bles and the lines OF convenience to the
people. the district plan would be per-
haps the best attainable. The require
ment of uniformity is clearly desirable.
but i'll reaching it 1t is quite as desirable
that the method should be as nearly
equitable as possible. There have been
various schemes discussed at different
times. One of these is called the
cumulative system. 1t proposes TO
give each voter as many votes as there
are electors to choose and allow him to
distribute them, one each to the candi-
dates, or mass them all for one man,
perhaps with other lines of division.
This would in this state give party
with more than one-ninth of the total
one of the nine electors. The principle
is tenable, as it would recognize the
right of every man to equal representa-
ton, but i'll the larger states il would be
cumbersome. 1T has never gained much
hold upon the public mind. The method
generally known as the Buckalew one,
after the name of the Pennsylvania sem
ator who advocated it, has met
the objections of critics more sue
~SN'SiShiys
Its purport is that the popular
vote in each state shall be the
measure of strength IN the electoral
college. In this state, for instance. the
total vote would be divided into nine
parts, and each party would have as
many electors as it had ninths of the
whole. This gives minorities fair
show, and reduces to a minimum the
inducements TO fraud. In the large
contested states there is now strong
temptation to employ all the dubious
agencies that come into prevalent poll
tics. A few thousand votes have sew
eral times controlled the thirty-six New
York electors. 1t is strain on the in
tegrity of partisan officials to be rigidly
honest when there is so much at stake.
Under this suggested plan no trickery
would be likely to change more than
one or two electoral votes. The chief
objection to this method is that it re-

The eXper fence of the present year is
likely to confirm the confidence of those
wheat growers who have held rigidly 10
the rule to market their crop as soon as
possible after harvest. There are many
abundantiy able to hold their grain for
years who have adhered vigorously to
this rule all their lives, ard they are
united in the belief that in the average
of years it has been greatly to their adj
vantage. 1t has been, perhaps. fortu-
nate for them that SO many have fol-
lowed different practices. The induce
ments the past season to hold for higher
prices were unusual. The most dis
corning could not resist the con-
c!usion that the enormous short
age in the crop over the water
would swell the figures above
all recent precedent as the year wore
away. The farmers were delugtd with
appeals to wait for the fancy prices that
were so sure to come. The crop year is
now half-gOne. and the market stub
bernly refuses to verify the anticipa-
tons of an unusual rise. There is, I'M
dOubtedly, much restitution in portions

enough visible to meet the demands of
all consumers who can pay usual prices.
The stocks in the grain markets both
sides of the Atlantic and i'll transit are
large, and the ordinary decrease IN Jan
uary has not been met. The complIa-
tons of the past month show bat 1900
600 fewer bushels in sight at the end
than at the beginning. The year previous
the difference exceeded 6,000,000 bush
els, and January of 1890 showed a falling
away of 100000 bushels. These are
not figures to stir high enthusiasm with
those who have dreamed of a golden
shower to reward them for their sa-
gacity in holding for the later markets.
The fact is that the people who have
been expected to create the unusual de-
mand have small ability to buy, even at
ordinary prices. They have to exc out
their subsistence III some cheaper way.
The promise now certainly is not IA
yorable to any marked advance in wheat

have had the money for their crop to
