the young Guineas better than their
natural mother, because the latter are
more given to roaming. When young,
they are delicate, like the turkey, and re-

cold and storms, but they are not liable
to disease. Feed the chicks often, say
with hard-boiled eggs, chopped fine,
and little stale bread crumbs. After
three or four weeks old, give meal wet
ted with scalded water. They like a
little onion or garlic, and pan of sour

A paper was gravely read at wo-
mans club in the west recommending
the following efforts in decorative art
from what most families throw away.
Five out of ten women will probably
read it seriously. Coffee grounds had
been dried and were used to fill head
rests, whose covers were brown silk,
embroidered with coffee blossoms care
fully copied from an encyclopaedia
picture. The tea leaves were similarly
disposed inside a slip of green silk.
Corn husks stuffed sofa cushions, and
potato parings carefully washed and
dried, served admirably for the in
teriors of floor and piazza cushions
made of sailcloth. The corn cobs were
at first a poser, but finally, dried and
gilded and tied with different colored
ribbons, they made lovely" (?) orna,
ments to suspend from every chande
lier in the house. And finally an um.
brella stand in the hall, greatly ad,
mired," was made from tile covered
with putty, into which was pressed the

Their Money Turned Out to 30 q Total
Loss.
Nearly every eN-confederate pre-,
serves some scrap of confederate paper
money as 4 memento of the civil war,
and most of them have stories to tell
of the absurd shifts they We're driven
to in purchasing the necessaries of life
with deprecated currency. Confcd-
crate money was never worth it's face
value, and by the spring of 1854 it ex-
changed in Richmond with United
States coin at twenty-five for one. A
banished northcrner who found him
self in Richmond at that time paid
twenty five dollars day at n moderate
ly good hotel. He lived to see confcd-
crate money exchange with United
States coin at forty and fifty to one
during the siege of Petersburg, end,
finally, upon the retreat, few days
before Lees surrender he found, in u
bit of woodland, great pile of the
worthless stuff neatly laid out on the
ground and held down with stone.

there and there was nobody to pick it
up.

the price in confederate money for any
thing not issued to the army in the
quartermaster's department was alb
surd. A pair OF boots cost two hun
dred dollars. Tin plates were from ten
to twenty dollars each. Whisky,
doubtless made tax free in the noun
tains of Virginia, brought twenty-five
dollars quart. Tobacco, corn meal
and sorghum were about the only
things issued as raticns toward the last.
Meat was at fabulous price. A few
lucky officers had Christmas turkeys,
not bought with confederate money,
but presents from friends in Peters
burg If any man got hold Of United
| States coin he either boarded it or ex-
| changed it for confederate notes. No
man paid it out for merchandise. Even
the deprecated paper currency of the
United States was vastly more valuable
than the mean looking and despised
confederate currency, state of atfoirs

The air coming in contact with the
tank becomes heated therefore ex-
pands, and becoming lighter, passes
up and over the tank, finding egress
through the tin tubes into the chamber
occupied by the chicks, furnishing
them with pure, warm air. The tank
cannot be made hot enough to rob the
air of any perceptible amount of oXy-

The tank of water is heated by two
lamps Gig. 81. Ours have but one
lamp, but we find that it furnishes
hardly enough heat; therefore we sug-
gest two lamps, and more if the tank
be longer
The lamp needs but little descrip-
ton. The tube (d) is one inch in diam
eter and is set diagonally across the
depth of the tank to facilitate the cir
culation of the water. The flame
plays against the tube and heats the
water, which, being expanded, passes
out at the upper end of the tube, giving
place to cooler water coming in at the
lower end.

lection of the flue under the tank.

that Humble Calling.
A list of eminent men who have been
book agents comprises many authors
and statesmen. George Washington
was n book agent and a good one.
Prior to the fateful Braddock eXpedi-
tion he sold over two hundred copies
in Fairfax and adjoining counties in
Virginia of work on the American
Savage" Jay Gould, Ralph Waldo
Emerson and Mark Twain were, in
early life, book canvassers. So, also,
was Longfellow. and his success was
remarkable. There is now in posses
SIN of the Massachusetts, Historical
ciety a prospectus the poet used, and
on one of the blank leaves are the skel-
eton lines of the celebrated poem "Ex-
ceislor," which he was evidently then
incubating. Daniel Webster paid his
second terms tuition at Dartmouth by
selling books. Gen. Grant at one time
took an agency for lrving's "Colum-
bus" Bret Harte was a book agent in
CaliforI ia in 1Si9-50. EX-President
Hayes ooted it all over southern Ohio
selling "Baxter's Lives of the Saints" I"
After the seige of Toulon, Bonaparte,
then young lieutenant, employed at
the capital, and too honorab BILE to dupli-
cate his pay account, took the agency
for the History of the Revolution" !"
Bismarck, Cardinal Mezzofanti, Count
Metternich, Canning, Lord Denham
and Coleridge, the poet, were all at
some period of their lives book agents
So, also, were Nine. de Stael and Mrs.
jameson, and Columbus canvassed for
u work on Marine Explorations"
james q. Blaine began his business
career as a canvasser in Washington
county, Pa, where he sold the Life of
Henry Clay" Many others whose
names emblazon the pages of history
largely owe their success to the expe-
rience obtained while engaged in the
laudable and honorable calling of q

All the succeeding night we we're

At dark that day of monstrous calam-

in full retreat, having been victorious

sort had started the stampede at the

seas of clottcd blood, one of the last
scenes that fell upon our disturbed vi

was that OF our dear Gaudia returning
from the field with small red rill of
