AMERICAN LEvITY.
We Are Too Much Given to Feeding
Upon Laughable Things.

Singularly enough it appears that Poe,
the only absolute distinct genius our
country has yet produced, was incapable
of humor, and that even his levity was
artificial. Hawthorne, next to Poe in
originality and far above him in style,
was but meagerly equipped with smile
provoking material Bryant, our great
est poet, maintained lofty seriousness
throughout his work.
1t may be sacrilege to say so, but the
truth is Lowell was the founder of our
levity; he never could be quite reli-
ably serious thinker; but would at the
most unexpected moment break off into
fun-making.
Humor is good in a fresh and natural
state but so is peach; cut and dry
either and you have poor article for a
regular diet. We Americans have fed
upon laughable things until our faces
show the wrinkles of grin, even when
in solemnest repose. We are never sure
of one another, but must wait awhile
after each communication to find out
whether or not it is joke. The effect
of highest sincerity can not be reached
in the midst OF all this hurly-burly of
chatting voices. How can one be serious
while everybody else is grimmacing p

HOW TO COOK A HUSBAND.
Recipe That Every Girl Should File Ava,
In Her Private Archives.

| A member OF the Baltimore cooking
school presented recently to her associ-
ates, the following recipe for cooking a
husband, so as to make him tender and
good.
"A good many husbands are utterly
spoiled by encouragement. Some
women go about it as though their hus-
bands we're bladders, and blow them up.
Others keep them constantly in hot
water. Others let them freeze by their
carelessness and Indifference. Some
keep them in stew by their irritating
words and ways. Others roast them.
Others, again, keep them in pickle all
their lives. 1t cannot be supposed that
any husband will be tender and good
managed in these ways, but they are
really delicious when properly treated.
In selecting husband, you should not
be guided by the silvery appearance, as in
buying mackerel, nor by golden tint,
as il You wanted salmon. Be sure to
select him yourself, as tastes differ. Do
not go to market for him, as the best are
always brought TO your door. 1t is far
better TO have none unless you will patti
emily learn how to cook him. A pre-
serving kettle of finest porcelain is best,
but if you have nothing but an earthen-
ware pipkin, it will do, with care. See
that the linen in which you wrap him is
nicely washed and mended, with the re-
quired number OF bottoms and strings
sewed strongly on.
Tie him in the kittle by strong silken
cord, called comfort, as the one called
duty is apt to be weak, so that the hus-
band may flop out OF the kettle and be
burned and crusty on the edges, as hus-
bands, like crabs and Holsters, have to be
cooked alive Make clear, steady fire
out Of cheerfulness, neatness and love.
Set him as near these as seems to agree
with him. II he sputters and fixes do
not be anxious; some do this until they
are quite done. Add little sugar in the
form of what confectioners call kisses,
but no vinegar or pepper on any account.
A little spice is improving, but it must
be used with judgment. Do not stir
anything without judgment. Do not
stick anything sharp into him to see if
he is becoming tender. Stir him gently;
watch the while lest he lie too close and
fiat, and close to the cannot fail to know
when he is ready for use.
II thus used, you will find him very
digestible, agreeing nicely with you and
the children, and he will keep as long
as you want-unless you become
careless, and set him out in the cold"

nobler self at the front, then Christianity
has no secret to tell that is worth listen
ing to, and may be regarded as a boast

ties the whole matter. Your own life is
the court Of appeals where the case is
argued and final decision is reached.
II religion makes and irreligion mars, il
religion brings hope and irreligion brings

Theology is well enough in its way,
but the world has neither time nor incli-
nation TO follow its intricacies. What
we crave is series of practical truths
which can be represented by the laws
which govern us, by the institutions un-
der which we live, by the public opin-
ion that controls everything in the long
run-laws, institutions, public opinion
which constantly refine and ennoble.
We have found these truths in Christ
ianity. They have been subjected to a
test of nearly twenty centuries. They
have indicated themselves in thous-
and emergencies. Therefore we believe
in Christianity and support the churches
which explains its principles.

1T is FUNNEY.
The Way Things Run In the Experience Of
a Street Car Conductor.

'It's funny" said the street car con-
ductor, show things run in this business.
Now, il / carry one armed man in the
morning I'm pretty sure to carry one
armed men all day."
"Ive noticed that" said the conduct.
or who was off duty and who was riding
down town in the rear seat. "Same way
with one legged men too. Beats all how
many men there are in this town who
have lost parts of themselves"
That's right" said the first conductor.
81 noticed that when came down the
other afternoon. Up at the corner OF
Bryant street one armed man got on.
Two blocks farther down a man with one
of his legs gone climbed aboard. Then it
was a steady stream of them-a man
with both arms cut off and man with
both legs cut off. Then came man
with both arms and one leg off who was
toted around by another man, and man
with both legs and one arm off. Then
there was a man with one eye gone and
a man with both ears cut off.
Funniest thing though, was man
who got on at Swan street, who looked
to be all right. He made some sort of a
sign to me when took his fare, and /
didn't understand it. So l asked him
what he meant. He made another sign.
Can't you talk? said l, and he shook his
head and opened his mouth, and I'll be
jiggered il his tongue wasn't cut of"
THAT was sorter queer" said the
other conductor "but it was kinder
lucky too"
"How do you make that out?" asked
the other conductor. 81 don't see how
the poor cuss was in luck"
"Oh, yes he was" replied the other
conductor. "He couldn't possibly be
such a blamed liar as you are. See?"
And then a dead silence fell over the
rear of the car, broken only by the
chuckles of the fat passenger who wore
the alpaca coat.-Butialo Express.

A HERD OF JERSEYS.
PRIZE ESSAY ny Il. FRED BECKMAN.

Where do we find Jersey cattleP !
have seen them around our barn and in
our pasture for the last thirteen years.
We are told that they originated on the
/ Island of Jersey, from whence they re-
ceive their name. They are very famous
for making fine butter, and for their gen.
tleness. They are called the gentle
mans cow" COW to be kept on the lawn
for adornment, but intend to give the
history OF small herd, tell what il has
J done, and thereby prove that they are
Profitable with big P) for the common
est farmer that ever followed pillow, pro-
vided he takes an interest in his herd
and their products.
Thirteen years ago farmer who had
come to the conclusion that something
could be learned from farm journal
submitted TO be dubbed "book farmer"
and subscribed for several first. class farm
papers. Before long this farmer saw that
he was behind the times, and that he
must do something to improve his herd
If he wished TO keep in the procession.
He therefore purchased Jersey COW,
and soon after a Jersey bull. Neither
were registered, but were frst-class indi-
viduals, and laid the foundation for as
good little herd of Jerseys as can be
found in the United States.
Soon other additions were made; re-
corded bull and COW were purchased. All
heifer calves were raised, and if, when
nearly matured, they gave promise of
being good cows, were kept, and the poor
ones sold to the butcher. Soon he con-
ceived the idea of weighing and record
ing the milk from each COW, and testing
the same at intervals, so that more ac-
curate knowledge of what each COW was
doing was obtained. This practice has
been followed ever since. In the winter
the cows were fed grain and hay until
thanks to the farm papers, he saw that
silo was the proper thing; five years
ago he commenced feeding ensilage, and
has wondered ever since why people will
be so ignorant as to think they know
everything, even about farming.
Not only were the cows given every
attention, but also the butter received its
share. The art of butter-making was
studied, and by the closest attention and
observation a very high degree OF i'm
provement was obtained. The Cooley
process of setting the milk in submerged
cans was used; to this, no doubt, much
OF the superior quality of the butter is
due. The butter was given first prem
ium at several successive county fairs,
and it also received its share at State and
other fairs, and at a certain well-known
dairy exhibit it was awarded the sweep
stakes premium over all breeds.
Through this several desirable customers
with whom price was no object, were
obtained.
Special attention is paid to winter
dairying. The cows pastured six months
and are stalled-fed the remaining six.
The price of the butter is much higher
in winter, and by the use of the silo and
Cooley process, the very finest butter is
made at very moderate expense.
In order that some idea of what the
herd is doing may be obtained, l give the
following, taken from the regular record
book OF the herd for the month of April,

Hon. Stuart f. Lindsay, OF Bristol,

lawyers and influential politicians in
Southwest Virginia, accompanied by his
wife and little girl, spent few hours
In the city yesterday en- route for
Chicago to visit the Worlds Fair. Mr..
Lindsay is 6 Republican and although
he lives at Bristol and practices law
chiefly at Abingdon, he Is the long
range editor OF the Patriot and Herald
at Wytheville and is perhaps one of
the best posted men in political affairs
in the Southwest.
THE Virginia half Of Bristol, said
Mr.. Lindsay, "has instructed her dele.
gates for Colonel O'Ferrall and there is
no doubt in the world that Washington
county, the largest in the South west,
will do likewise. This is by no means
all OF Colonel O'Ferrall's strength in
the Southwest. He will most likely
carry Lee and Scott and will get some
delegates in a number of the other
counties Of Southwest Virginia. AS 1
