Good Accounts. but Hard to Collect.

The collector of one Of our largest coal
houses told me yesterday that it was an
utter impossibility for him to get in any
money. Said he: 81 went out this morn
ing with bills against perfectly good Gus
toners, aggregating $4,000, and after a
hard days work | was able to turn in
but $3.50. The fact Of the business is

days have become the necessities of to-
day."
The collector of one of the principal
livery stables in this city told me that
his firm were carrying between $4,000
and $4,000 of perfectly good accounts
upon their books, and that it was really
difficult for them to get enough money
in to pay their feed bills and their men
at the close of each week. Not" said
he, ''that the bills are not perfectly good.
but there is either an inability or a dis
inclination to pay up at the present time

Kindness Misinterpreted.

A Springfield man has the feet hoist
ing habit SO hard that he has skinned
all the paper off one spot ON the parlor
wall. AS caustic bit of sarcasm his
wife nailed his slippers with their toes
pointing to the ceiling over the worn
spot and put a smacking big bow under
them. He misunderstood her inten-
tions, kissed her lovingly for her
thoughtfulness, tilted his chair away
back, stuck his stockinged feet into the
accommodating slippers and has sat in
that fashion since.-Springield Home

DEAR SIR answer to your re
quests that you the results OF
experiments he use of salt, will
say, that | fused salt for several
years in SUD ION on dry plain land,
principally E oats, and have found
that where have spread salt with
out manure Be crops have been fully
equal to ~ liberal spreading of
manure without salt. On pieces ly-
ing side by side / have found thaC the
oats upon the piece upon which salt
had been spread would grow fully
six inches higher than where no
manure WastuSed.
The salt seems to draw the moist
ure from the atmosphere, and [
have obsert ed when we have had
heavy dews that the moisture from
the dew seems to linger upon the
grain for two or three hours longer
where the salt was used than where
it was not used.
| know from actual tests and OBJ
servatiOns made that TO a large eX-
tent salt prevents grain from rust
ing. | think the benefit in this dircc-
ton has been fully equal to the cost
of the salt. At the price you now
charge for it | think | shall use more
than ever before.
l have used salt upon my wheat
crop with substantially the same re-
suits as those given above on oats.
l have raised fairly good crops of
oats on WORKOUT land by free use of
salt where the same land without
either salt or manure would produce
hardly enough crop to pay for har-
vesting.

AN ELOQUENT PERoRAT1oN.

A skeptic, desiring to show his con-
tempt for the passing years and to show
that he could build enduringly, had his
own sepulcher made of the finest and
the hardest marble, and then he had put
ON the door the words, For time and
for eternity" but it so happened that the
seed of a tree somehow got into an I'M
seen crevice OF the marble. That seed
grew and enlarged until it became
tree and split the marble to pieces.
There can be no Generalization of any
thing earthly. But foreverl Will you
and | live as long as that? We are apt
to think of the grave as the terminus.
We are apt to think of the hearse as our
last vehicle. We are apt to think of
seventy or eighty or ninety years, and
then a cessation.
Intead of that we find the marble slab
of the tomb is only milestone. mark
ing the first mile, and that the great
journey is beyond. We have only time
enough in this world to put on the san
dals and to clasp our girdle and to pick
up our staff. We take our first step
from cradle to grave, and then we open
the door and start-great God, whittier?
The clock strikes the passing away of
time, but not the passing away of eter-
nifty. Measureless, measureless! This
Selah of perpetuity makes earthly inc
qualities so insignificant, the difference
between scepter and needle, between
Alhambra and hut, between chariot and
cart, between throne and curbstone, be-
tween Administer and bare floor, between
satin and sackcloth, very trivial
This S lah Of perpetuity makes our
getting ready so important. For such
prolongation of travel what outfit of
guidebooks, of passports and of escort?
Are we putting out on desert, simeon
swept and ghoul haunted, or into re-
gions of sun lighted and spray sprinkled
gardens? Will it be Elysium or Ge-
henna? Once started in that world, we
cannot stop. The current is SO swift
that once in no oar can resist it, no helm
can steer out of it, no herculean or
titanic arm can battle it. Hank to the
long resounding echo, 'foreverr' Oh,
wake up to the interest of your death
less spirit! Strike out for heaven. Rouse
ye, men and women for whom Jesus
died. Selah! Selah! Forever! Forever!

that many strangers hearing it for the
