"Madam," said man with crush
ed hat and dilapidated clothes, as he
appeared at the basement door of 9
Harlem house, II have here some little
bottles of my own genuine patent in
destructible cement fer mending bro
ken china and other articles, absolutely
indispensable in any we'll regulated
"Don't want it, SIR"
"It's only 10 cents bottle, madam
and it will pay"
"No use for anything of the kind, !
say-wouldn't have it!'
"It's warranted to mend anything in
the line of broken dishes, Or"
"I tell you I don't want it and you
needn't stand there talking any
longer" =.
"All right, madam, all right; don't
want to intrude. Fine morning,
madam. The lady next door made a
little remark about you, madam but
don't suppose you would care any,
thing about hearing it repeated. Good,
by, madam"
"Hold on a minute, won't you. She
said something about me, you say?'
ayes ma'am, let fall little remark
concerning you-but I don't think you
would care to hear it. I've got to
hurry along"
"Just moment. l believe iii take
a bottle of that stuff"
"The lady I was speaking off took
three bottles for quarter, madam, but
l."
"Give me four bottles, please; halt
the dishes in the house are broken.
The idea of her saying anything about
me, the mean thing" .
"Yes, certainly. Accidents will
happen to valuable china. Apply it
with brush as directed. Also, /
have large bottles of furniture polish,
so cents bottle. Two bottles? All
right. There you are. There's your
change, madam. Hope everything
will be satisfactory. Good morning"
"But just wait another moment
you didn't tell me what that woman
said about me. I'll teach her to talk
about me behind my back !"
"Oh, yes, I most forgot it. You see
it was in this way asked her if the
lady in the next house, meaning you,
you see, was at home"
eyes, yes, I understand. What did
she say then?" =.
"She spoke up quick like, and said
she didn't know. That was all
madam told you it wasn't much.
Be sure and apply with the brush as
directed. Good-by!"

ONE WAS TAKEN.

was riding over the path of the
cyclone which had cut swath across
county the day before when 1 came to a
settler seated on block of wood in
front of the ruins of pole shanty.
Everything had been taken away
down to the puncheon floor, and the
dozen fruit trees around the house
were lying uprooted.
"How fur hev yo' cum, stranger ?"
he asked as rode up.
From Scottsville."
"My old woman blowed away in
that direction, and thought you might
have seen her."
"No, SIR"
"Mule went about the same time, l
guess. He was big white mule"
"I haven't seen him. Then you
have lost everything?"
"Everything, stranger-wife, mule,
dog, ~ hens, house and furniture.
One mint they was all here-next
mint they was all gone!"
"Were you at home at the time?"
asked.
"Oh, yes-right here to home"
"And you neither blew away nor
got hurt?"
"Neither one. Come through it all
as sound as dollar"
"Where were you when the cyclone
struck the house?'
"Waal, the hand of Providence SEEM
ed to be in it. Me and the old woman
had row out in the garden, and I
chased her into the house. She turned
on me like cat, got good grip
and heaved me down cellar through
the open trapdoor. Then she got
rockin' cheer and set on the trap and
rocked and hollered to me that /
couldt git out till 1 knuckled under.
She was a-rockin' when heard a
boom bang and l got out of the celler
to find things as you now see 'em.
Wouldn't you sorter call it the hand
of Providence, stranger ?"
"Well, perhaps, but what are you
going to do?"
"Nuthin'-nuthin', tall, 'cept to be
thankful that I was pitched down eel
lar instead of the old woman. If I'd
bin carried off and she left, she'd'never
got over blowin' around about how she
made me take wings and fly away on
the clouds of the mornin'. IF you
should meet the old woman, you'll
know her by her skeered and humble
k."-Austin Keene.

How OFTEN SHOULD A Cow BE
FED.-This question has received
some attention at farmers meetings and
dairy conventions during the past sea-
son. Most people fodder three times
day and some have even given five
fodderings during the "a hours. But it
is beginning to be found out that the
bovine stomach, as well as others, de-
mands time in which to properly di-
gest food, and that feeding twice day
produces as good if not better results,
than feeding oftener. 1t is the nature
of the cow to fill her paunch, lie down,
and then throw up her food and mas
ticate it in little bunches called "cuds."
The food then is prepared to enter the
other three stomachs and 60 through
the process ofdigestion. All this takes
time, and any interruption of the
process is an injury. Twice day
morning and evening-will be found
often enough to feed COWS that are
confined. When in pasture they will
spend the early part of the forenoon
in filling themselves. The middle of
the day will be spent in shade if they
can get one. Then, in the cool of the
afternoon they will be seen laying in a
store of food for the night.

Do YOUR REPAIRING AT HONE
On all well-conducted farms where
much machinery is used, farmers
spend a great deal of time running to
and from the blacksmith shop. There
are 80 many different tools used that
something gives out almost every day.
Now a great deal Of expense may be
saved by having a small shop on
the farm. A portable forge can be
had for S15. This will answer every
purpose, though it is not advisable to
get one too small. Secure hand an
vii weighing about 100 pounds, a
good hammer, a 10 pound sledge, a
steel punch and good blacksmith's
wise, and you are ready for almost
any job but horseshoeing. Of course
beginner cannot expect to do skilled
work at first, but with little practice,
time and money can be saved. My
outfit contains several tools in addi-
ton to those mentioned above and
cost me $50. The money is we'll in
vested. A farmer should not be with
out an assortment of good carpenter
tools. I say good ones because I be-
lieve the farmer ought to have as good
ones as the carpenter. Many a dollar
can be saved by their use. If the
farmer does not care to do his own
repairing, perhaps the boys Gf there
be any, will take hold and to them it
will soon become more of pleasure
than task.-Orange Judd Farmer.

collie IN HORSES.

AS the remedy is highly recommend
ed by several writer's of high authority,
and as collie is the disease most COM
mon among horses, and sometimes
proves fatal, we deem it matter of
sheer justice to our readers that we
call attention to chloride of lime as a
remedy for collie which is claimed to
be speedy and unfailing.
Collie is produced by some ferment-
ing food that causes a rapid accumula-
ton of gas in the stomach, which dis
tends the paunch and entrails, causing
pain and finally inflammation and death
if relief is not had in time. 1t is this
gas that must be got rid of, and chlo-
ride of lime is the proper remedy. 1t
neutralizes the gas, and brings speedy
relief. 1t is, so it is claimed, one of
the most effective remedies known.
And being cheap, and safe to use in
small quantities, is par excellence the
remedy for the family to handle.
A heaping tablespoonful of the
lime in a pint of warm water, or half
pint spirits, is dose for full grown
horse. Every farmer should keep
some of the chloride of lime always on
hand. 1t is very useful about privies
and other places of offensive smell,
manure piles, etc. 1t is good for bloat
or hoven, as we'll as collie, either in
cattle or horses. Indeed, the two dis
eases are very nearly allied, and result
very often from the some causes. There
may be collie without bloat, but not Of
ten bloat without collie. And as collie
is a disease of quite frequent occur
renee every one should keep remedy
quite near by them. From what is
said and claimed for chloride of lime,
we are disposed to look upon it as the
remedy for this ailment.
In the first stages, whisky or some
other spirit may be used with the
drench, say half pint of the spirit and
and half pint of the water. But if the
disease has been on long enough to
produce inflammation, should prefer
something less irritating than spirits
if at all strong. In general use, we
should use nothing but water to dis
solve the lime and make drench.
Keep some chloride of lime in the
barn and never be without reliable
remedy for a sudden case of collie.
The lime is good to drive away rats,
sprinkled about where they run. They
will leave for other quarters.

CHICKEN CHoLERA.-Don't feed
your chickens on the ground where
they stand around much, as in the hen
house yard. l have several Slated,
long, boxlike troughs in which to feed
my hens, and the only times I ever
have case of cholera now is when 1
get careless and neglect and feed on
the ground, and so sure as I do this in
a week or so I'll have one or two sick
hens. l have found that tolerably
strong amber made putting some five
five or six leaves Of tobacco in about
two or three gallons of water in their
drinking trough will check up the
cholera and there are no more cases.
