Rather Mixed.

Speaking of memory" said man,
II think have pretty good memory,
but there are some things that can't I
remember at all like, for instance
(who does not?), to remember the pref.
erences of my guests at the table; to
be able to give, without asking after
the first time, rare meat to him who
likes it, the white meat to the one who
prefers that, and so On; and have
pretty fair success In this; but have
one guest whose wishes in regard to tea
and coffee find myself utterly unable
70 fix In my mind. He takes coffee
without sugar and with milk, and tea
without milk and with sugar. Do you
grasp that? You do, l know, for it ia
very simple; but do you know, Just
simply can't remember it! can't. OF
course, l can realize it with perfect
clearness when think Of it, but the
impression promptly fades from my
mind. If his habit were alike as to tea
and coffee; il in both he used milk, but
not sugar, or sugar but not milk, ]
could remember that easily; but when
it comes to using one in one but not in
the other, and the other in this bur moi
in that, why, the effect produced upon
my mind is, l freely confess, confusing,
and have to ask him every time,"-N.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Use we'll rotted stable manure in the
garden.
EARLY cabbage plants may be win
tered in cold frame.
GRAPES can be pruned now at any
time and be laid down and protected
during the winter.
Too RICH soil with peach trees often
induces too heavy growth Of wood at
the expense Of fruit bearing.
A TREE that has been properly pruned
during growth will need very little
pruning after it commences to bear.
ALL fall-set trees will be the better II
carefully banked up around the stem
and good mulch of straw or coarse
litter applied.
PLANT groups of evergrcens in such
a position that they will shelter the
outbuildings, garden and orchard dur
ing the winter.
APPLY a good dressing Of manure
around the rhubarb plants and aspnra-
gus beds; it will act as mulch, besides
stimulating the plants.
CRAFTS may be cut now at any time
and may be stored in damp moss, saw
dust or sand in the cellar, or they may
be put in box and buried.
THE cluster of eggs that may be found
on apple tree limbs should be picked of
during the open weather Of fall or win
ter and thus prevent the Matching OF
the tent caterpillar
In heeling in trees in the fall for
spring planting care should be taken to
fill the interstices among the roots COM
pletely with soil and to have q raised
mound of earth around them to keep
out mice.
In setting out fruit trees Of any kind
it is q serious mistake to set them
deeper than they grew in the nursery.
1t is best in the fall to draw small
bank up around the stem, but this
should be smoothed down in the spring.

Rip the seven-foot piece lengthwise,

these strips even at the top end and

of three by four inches, and the mar

Cleanllnes. In the Dairy.

Cleanliness from the milking Of the
COW to the packing Of the butter is an
absolute necessity in the dairy. Fiji

my mind in dictatory sort OF way;
lately it has been made clear to me in
the clear light Of scientific investiga-
tions The synopsis Of circular issued
by Danish butter makers association
showS the attention given this subject
in that country. where the best butter
in the world is made. All utensils used
in connection with the dairy must be
cleaned carefully in the usual manner
and finally rinsed in clear lime water,
leaving them In the water when not in
use. Before using empty tae lime
water and steam for fifteen minutes.
Common water should not be used for
rinsing. This is the only sure method
OF excluding all bacteria from the pans
and machinery used in the dairy. That
cleanliness is paying investment may
be readily seen by visiting the dairies
in which the butter is made. which re-

FALLING LEAVES.

Around me fly the falling leaves
In vain their fate my spirit grievcs.
For nature grants W no reprieves.
Throughout the world she holds her sway.
Her laws must men and leaves obey.
From dust they spring. to dust decay.
Yet while this requiem we sing.
Our faith looks forward to the spring
That shall the Resurrection bring.
Back 70 the earth for earth's own sake
The falling leaves themselves betake.
But soon In beauty shall awake.
Awhile they minsle with the sod.
TIL natures unsemitting toll
Shall reproduce with nougbt Of m0iL
A. fall the leaves our dear ones fall,
when comes to each the silent call;
Nor long the grave shall them enthrsll.
All. why begrudge them natures sieep'
Why deem the grave 30 dark, so deep.
Or tears Of hopeless sorrow weep!
For sleeping mortals comes the spring
And Joy with morn's awakening:
Immortal life the day shall bring.
Fen death Il part Of natures plan.
And hath been since the world began,
Sweet death, unerring friend Of man.
Such are tho thoughts my fancy weavcs
With brightest hues Of falling leaves
No more my thoughtful spirit grieves.

Francis REarion's Sword.

While at the capitol III Columbia a few
days ago visitor saw the sword OF
Francis Marion. cit had parted com
pany with its sheath; a part of the ivory
hilt was gone; the blade was badly rust
eaten. He was subsequently told that
the clerks in the Office of the secretary OF
state slice waterInelons with it!' We
should like to have Attorney General
Townsend's opinion on this matter i
the facts are as stated It is true that
Marion's sword would last a long time,
even if it were employed every summer
to slice waterlnelons with, but that is
scarcely a proper use to make Of the old
weapon when a caseknife would serve
Just as well. IF the secretary Of state Is
sure enough reformer, he might try
his hand on the clerks IN his office. AS a
matter Of fact. there is no sword of Gen
eral Francis Marion extant, at the state
house or anywhere else.-Charleston
