It seems a very easy trick to sweep.
q cent out of the hand, but if done
fairly it is really difficult says this
Youths Companion. Open the hand
naturally and place the cent on the
palm, then ask someone to brush it
out with whisk- broom.
After repeated efforts it will proba-
bly, be suspected that the cent is fast
ened in your hand in some way. In
order to prove that it is not, let the
sweeper place it ON his own palm, and
he will find it remains as immovable
there rs when he tried to sweep it
from the hand of the other person.
A few persons have flat palms. The
cent may easily be swept off from such
palms. but they are not common.
it requires not a little patience to
pick up an apple with d spoon. Place
large, round apple, stem up on a
smooth floor; then try to take it up
with spoon. The very effort of try
ing to get the spoon under the apple
starts it rolling. to the amusement of
the on-lookers. If done quickly
enough, the apple can be taken up
while in motion; but the proper way
is to wait until it ceases TO roll and
then carefully push the spoon far
enough under the apple 10 get the
center of gravity over the spoon. when
there is no difficulty in picking it up
How to cut an apple and not break
the skin: Thread a needle with strong
thread. Insert the needle Just under
the skin of the apple. take Il stitch and
carefully draw tho needle and thread
through to within six or eight inches
of the end. Then insert the needle
again this time in the exact hole it
was withdrawn from.
Continue the stitches in this m;trl-
ner around the apple, withdrawing
the needle the last time through the
first hole made. The thread is entire
ly around the apple now. concealed by
its skin. akc firm hold of each
end of the thread and holding both OF
the ends well together to prevent tear
iu-' skin. pull gently.
The thread cuts it's way slowly
through the apple until it is in two
pieces, when the thread is withdrawn
through the tiny hole made by the
needle.
If this trick is done carefully enough
the breaks in the skin will not be dis
ccrnible on the closest inspection. In
deed the only convincing proof that
the apple Is cut in half will be to pare
a narrow strip of skin where the
needle and thread have Travelled. when
the apple will fall apart.

Origin of Fife wheat.

The chamber of Commerce of Grand
Forks, N. d., in talking over the seed
wheat question good many years ago
when the Fife wheat first began to at
tain it's present popularity and was
called ''Scotch Fife wheat" thought
serhaps superior seed might be obtain
ed in Fifeshire, Scotland, where it was
supposed to have originated, and sent a
correspondent in that country an order
for 20 bushels of ''Scotch Fife wheat. -
They were considerably surprised to
receive reply stating that there was
no such wheat known in Scotland,
and in fact no spring wheat of any
kind raised in Fifeshire. This led to
an investigation into its origin, and
after many inquiries it was discovered
that the fife wheat originated in Cana
da, in the vicinity of Manitoba. 1t APP
pears that when Selkirk brought over
his Scotch colony to Manitoba, about
1858, he purchased for them a supply
OF seed after their arrival and among
other lots purchased a supply Of seed
wheat from Scotch settler named An
drew Fife, which was so different in
character from the rest that it was
kept separate and sown by itself and
called after the man from whom itwas
obtained, Fife seed. Its strength, har-
dineSS and power to resist disease soon
made it Il favorite with the colony and
it spread into the Red River valley and
Minnesota, and after a few years was
raised extensively.

Economy In a Family.
There is nothing, says the New York
Ledger, which goes so far toward plac-
ing young people beyond the reach of
poverty as economy in the manage
ment of their domestic affairs. 1t
matters not whether q man furnish
little or much for his family, if there is
a continual leakage in the kitchen or
in the parlor. 1t is the husbands
duty to bring into the house, and it is
the duty of the wife to see that nothing
goes wrongfully out of it, not the least
article, however unimportant in it.
self, for it establishes precedent
nor under any pretense, for it opens
the door for ruin to stalk in, and he
seldom leaves an opportunity unim-
proved. The husbands interest
should be the wife's care, and her
greatest e;mbition should carry her no
farther than his welfare and happiness,
together with that Of her children.
This should be her sole aim, and the
theater of her exploits in the bosom
Of her family, where she may do as
much toward making q fortune as he
can in the counting room or in the
workshop. It is not the money earned
that makes man wealthy-it is
what he saves from his earnings. A
good and prudent husband makes a.
deposit OF the fruits of his labor with
his best friend, and if that friend be
not true what has he to hope? If he
dare not place confidence in the COM
panion of his bosom, where is he to
place it?
