The Rev. Dr.. Charles +. Deems,
pastor of the Church of the Strang-
ers, New York city, recently won a
prize offered by metropolitan
daily Tor The best statement of the
principles which ought to govern
husbands in their treatment of their
wives, Following is his contribu-
ton:
Manager What is that? Does it
mean to control? We manage a
horse. We use our superior human
intellect to control and guide his
superior physical strength so as to
obtain the best results. But wife
is not horse. Where two persons
are properly married the wife is
superior to her husband in as many
respects as he is superior to her in
others.
II happiness is to be the result OF
the union the first business of the
husband is to manage himself so as to
keep hmselfalways his wiIe's respect
full friend, always her tender
lover, always her equal partner,
always her superior protector,
This will necessarily stimulate
the wife to be always an alice
tionate sweetheart, always a
thrifty housewife, always confd-
ing ward. And this will SO react
upon the husband that his love for
his wife will grow so as to make it
easy for the husband, with all his
faults, to bear with all the in6rm-
itlcs OF his zone and only" wife.

THE PROFIT IN DAIRY COWS.

Harry Talcott, dairy COMMISSION
er OF Ohio, says: can make $50 to
SIS a cow easier in winter dairylng
than can from S25 to $40 IN
summer, consequently ! have my
cows come in IN October, November,
and Dcccmbcr." This point seems to
be dawniug upon the understanding
Of many engaged III cooperative
dairving, or members olcrcamery as
sociations, who are finding out that
they realize much more per space Tor
cream in the winter than IN the sum-
mcr, aud for which reason they en-
deavor to secure u iull flow OF milk
at that season by bringing their
cowsto calve and new milk in the
late fall or early winter. AS one
farmer expressed it, he "had rather
have his cows calye so as to be BRING
ing him something in the winter
when it costs something to keep
them than to go dry; and he would
rather they would 90 dryin the sum
mer when they could go to pasture
and .ake care OF themselves"
But after all, in applying that test,
if it is considered that the keeping in
summer at pasture costs nothing,
does not the product at a lower
price give nearly as good returns?
In the same line OF thought, another
farmer has stated that he could Sc
cure double the returns from cows
that come in in winter than he could
from those that come in in summer,
reasoning hat cow that comes in
in the early part of the winter IS in
full milk and continues so with no
disposition to shrink until about the
time OF turning out to grass, the Ct
feet Of which will be to continue
full flow as long as she ought to be
MIXED; while if cow comes i'll
III the spring and when she is at
grass, the decrease in flow might
naturally be expected about the
time OF changing from grass to dry
feed, the effect Of which will be to
very greatly reduce the flow, it not
to arrest il altogether. Again it
must be remembered that this condi-
tion can also be ameliorated by the
cultivation and use of root crops
that may be used as substitute for
green grass, or, as is produced by
some, the use OF ensilage may be
made to secure condition so near
to that of summer grass feed as to
give results that will be very similar
to those obtained by summer feed

1t was on the Stormy division Of the
G. B. and 9. it happened, when Superin-
tendent Dugan's Jurisdiction embraced
that division. The east bound passen-
ger train, thsn called the Cannon Ball,
had on board five corpses, through
from Denver, in charge of the train
baggage man. 1t was in June, and the
weather was hot. The baggage man find
ing the atmosphere in the baggage car be-
coming undesirable moved three boxes
containing corpse each to the plat
form of his car outside, one on top Of
the other.
As the train was nearing Ottumwa,
the baggage man upon looking out was
Mortified to discover one of the boxes
missing. Surmising that one of the boxes
had slid off in rounding curve, owing
to the high rate Of speed the train had
been running, he wired Superintendent
Dugan Immediately upon arrival of the
train at Ottumwa, apprising him of the
loss. Dugan wired the section foreman
at Ottumwa as follows:
Patrick McGann-Look for corpse
lost off Cannon Ball three miles west of
Ottumwa and report condition of same
when found"
Patrick Immediately started ont with
the section gang, and found the box in
tact and brought the same to Ottumwa
1t was seldom that Patrick received or.
ders direct from the superintendent, the
roadmaster being his immediate supe-
rior Consequently Patrick concluded
the time to win promotion had arrived,
and after reading Dugan's telegram over
for the twentieth time wired his super
intendent as follows:
"Mishter Doogun-I hev found the
koropse, and the koropse was ded."
The operators expostulations were in
vain, and Patrick would permit nc
change in the message, saying:

of her victim. In fact, afterward, while
i'll, she confessed to being Mary Young
son.
4 Her motive in Disgusting herself was
apparent. She had feared, after dis
covered the strange shortening Of her
stature, that | might suspect who she
really was; and besides, the ruse would,
she thought, enable her the better to
escape from Tom and get off with his
5000. The mystery Of her having as
Miss Merwin looked SO much taller than
she really was we found explained by
her buskins, which proved, like those
sometimes worn by actors on the stage,
to be provided with very thick cork soles,
to give an appearance of elevation to the
stature.
On the night she so astonished me by
the difference in her height she had, in
her hurry and alarm, come up in her
slippers, having forgotten to put on her
buskins. 4~
1t is hardly necessary to say that the
detectives warrant she had shown me
was forged, written by herself; nor
scarcely need it be mentioned that Tom
was now disgusted with this woman
and entirely cured Of his infatuation.
Subsequently she died of a malignant
fever while being conveyed prisoner
back to England-thus escaping the pun
ishment she SO richly merited for her
odious crime, although there were not
wanting those who stoutly maintained
that the charge had by no means been
conclusively brought home to her. How

for more than the proverbial nine days,

Americas Natives Described.

This description of the natives as they
appeared to the English colonists in
Maryland was written in 1868:
They are very proper tall men of per-
son; swarthy by nature, but much more
by art; painting themselves with colours
in oyle, like darke red, which they doe
to keep the gnatts off. As for their faces
they have other colours at times, as blew
from the nose upward and red down
ward; somewhat contrariwise, in great
varietie and in very gastly manner.
They have no boards till they come to
be very old, and therefore draw from
each side of their Inouthes lines to their
cares to represent beard. Their ap-
parell generally is deere skyns and some
furre, which they wear like loose man
tells; and yet under this, about their
middle, all women and men, at mans
estayte, were rounde aprons of skyns,
which keeps them decently covered, SO
that, without any offense to chast eyes,
we may converse with them.
All the rest of their bodies are naked,
and at times some of the youngest sort
of both men and women have just moth
ing to cover them, The natural wit of
this nation is very quick and will con-
ceiye thing very readily They excel
in smell and taste and have far sharper
sight than we. If these people were
once Christians (as by some signs we
have reason to think nothing hinders it
but want of language, it would be
right virtuous and renowned nation.
