Buried Alive"

Obscure service is that of pastors
wife in hamlet, tucked away under a
mountain peak in the wilderness. She
lives remote from the railroad, and mails
reach her only once week. Beyond
the telegraph, dispatch sent over the
wires to her nearest station would be
carried for delivery forty miles on horse
back. I remember this woman bril-
liant, beautiful girl, my schoolmate and
my lifelong friend. She has never al
lowed her talents to rust. The musical
skill, the fine taste in literature, the gen.
tie manners, have been used in the edu-
cation of her own children, and the par
sonage, where so much of the work has
often OF necessity been performed by the
hands of the mistress, has been the CEN
ter of pleasure for the parish.
"a might have been famous WON
an" one of her friends said to me had
she not married a poor minister and
been buried alive all these years."
Buried alive! / did not SO describe
the bright, busy, intensely absorbing
life my old schoolmate has led. and as
for fame, had she not earned something
better and more rewarding con-
seriousness that she had done her duty
in that place where God had put herr

the liberality of large-hearted Chris
tan friends, to select not one little
girl who should share her tiny room,
but half-a-dozen motherless waits and
strays, to whom she was loving and
beloved mother in a charming coun-
try home.
ut is just like the loaves and the
fishes" she would say to herself, as
she looked over the coy place, with
still almost incredulous eyes, and re-
joiced anew at the sight of wan little
faces growing plump and rosy. "The
dear Lord never does things by
halves l believe he enjoys taking
our breath away with his goodness,
sometimes, and to think that this all
began with my dress and those bless
ed girls!"
Miss Polly was SO used to surpris-
ing things by this time, that she took
it quite as matter of course when
Mary's Uncle Robert turned out to
be her Robert, whose wife had long
been dead, and who had grown to be
a man after her own heart, kindly,
benevolent, upright. She saw good
deal of him. for he was greatly inter-
ested in the cottage and its occu-
pants, and made himself very useful.
But they never spoke of the olden
days.
81 wonder if she ever thinks of
them? / wonder if she could care
for me again?" he asked himself Of
ten, as he watched her. "There is no
one like Polly; there never was; SO
sweet, SO gentle and unselfsh. I
wish-I wish I knewl''
But though he kept on wondering
and watching and wishing, he came
no nearer to finding out, for Miss
Polly was not one to give sign with
out the asking. So, at last, he went
to her, telling her with manly frank
ness, of the years since they had
parted, speaking gently of his wife,
and taking upon himself all the
blame of his disloyalty.
"Can you forgive it, Polly? Will
you let me come again into your life
in the dearest way, and help you care
for these children you love SO well9"
And do you suppose Miss Polly
heard him gladly, forgetting all her
long years of loneliness, and granting
him his hearts desire?
Well-what would you have done?

HORSES.

Strange as it may seem, Shetland
ponies are selling for more than the av
erage scrub horse. as the supply is
limited, and the demand is large in all
parts of the country. They are dignified
with the name of horse in their native
island, where they are used in the mines
and on the farms and gardens.
The fall in the horse market is due
more to the general depression in bust
ness than to anything else. Only the
cheaper grades have been replaced by
electricity. This depression is about
ended. and renewed demand for horses
is among the certainties of the future.
There will be very short supply to
meet it.
The year 1900 seems long way off,
but that year will have to come before
the colts of 1895 are fully ready for the
market. Farmers who are getting in
line now will see some high prices before
their horses are ready for that market
That day will come with increased de-
mand. as the growth of our cities will
require better horses than they have
heretofore had.
In Germany there are about horses
to every 100 of the population; in France
7, in Great Britain 6, in Austria 6, in
Hungary II. in Russia %, and in the
United States 26. The whole number Of
horses in the seven countries is almost
so millions.
No farmer can afford to sell the best
of his stock, especially the females.
With good mares. the better they are
in quality the stronger the reason why
they should be kept on the farm for
breeding purposes. Selling the best
mares. or the best females of any kind
of stock, can only be considered step
backward.
If we wish to raise any style of horses
successfully we must breed continually
to sires of given breed, and continue
to grade up to the size and kind required
by the market. We must adhere to the
line we have established without waver-
ing.
Individuality without pedigree
amounts to nothing in breeding. A
grade sire is apt to transmit only his
scrub characteristics, and his good quail
tiles are seldom strongly enough bred
10 him to be perpetuated; but the estab-
lished pure breeds reproduce their type.
Before we can supply the increasing
demand for the heavy draft geldings we
must in some way replace the heavy
draft mares. Neither have we the STALL
ions for breeding. Truly. there is no
other way than to import them, as we
did at the first, and all this means that
in our inability to meet the demands of
the market which are now upon US we
shall see prices beyond anything we ever
knew in this country. probably.

Common Errors in Speech.

The verb to get is one of our much
misused words; it means to acquire, win,
obtain; and primarily, it signifies the
putting forth of effort to attain some
thing, Consequently it 10 not only SUI
perhuous, but incorrect to speak of a
man as getting drowned or getting
SICK" and you may, unfortunately. "have
a cold" but it is impossible that you
shave got a cold" At this moment
no exceptions occur to the writer to
the rule that got should never be
used in connection with have, which
alone sufficiently expresses possession.
Say II have the picture" not II have
got the picture;" "The dog has broken
Leg" not 1.-The dog has got a broken
leg" The irregular verbs lay and lie
are frequently COMPOUNDED. Lay is an
active or transitive verb, and lie is pas
sive or intransitive. We lay things
down or have laid them down; but we
and things lie at rest. You lie down.
have lain down, will lie down, or are ly-
ing down; she lay down yesterday and is
going to lie down this afternoon. A fire.
qnent error is to confound the past tense
of these verbs. One should say, "Mary
laid the book on the table, and lay down
herself" but the book lies on the table.

Instructive Reading for AgricuIturists.
PREPARED EXPRESSLY FOR 1.-THE UNIyERSALIST"
POULTR n.

Prevention is the best remedy for
every form of disease. 1t is better to
ward against vermin by keeping sulphur
and lime in the dust boxes and nests,
and the coop dosed with kerosine now
and then, than it is to make fight
against the hosts of the peets after they
come in the swarms. such as we often
find.
Little chickens can not be kept on
grass unless they have some way of get
ting grit, or are furnished with it; they
will soon droop and die. 1t is we'll to
move the coop often, that they may
have fresh supply of heritage, but they
must have their box of sand or shells.
Let the young pullets be fed literally
all summer. that they may be ready to
lay as winter sets in. During the winter
they will feed themselves about the sta
bles on what other animals waste, and
will have desirable exercise in obtaining
it. With warm skim milk to drink, and
corn at night, they should lay we'll when
eggs are highest.
Soak crumbs for young chickens and
mix in the proportion of three cups of
these, the same of oatmeal, two of mid.
dlings and of wheat bran, adding one
cup of cornmeal and one of malt sprouts;
to this every third day add of beef scraps
made fine, or one of this animal meals.
Do not make it too wet, and place upon
clean board
Give the animal food to the fowls in
time, before the hans quit laying, and
it will hurry them through the moult-
ing season. They will not then stand
around looking haggard and miserable
for weeks. but will go to singing, and
soon be ready for business again. Your
neighbors will wonder why you get SO
many eggs.
One reason why hens prove unprofita-
BILE on many farms is that they are kept
until they die Of sickness or old age. Her
best laying days are past when she is
two years old. 1t is wise to dispose of
them either in the home or the foreign
market before the second winter, GER
tainly before the third
Pullets which began to lay in Septem
Der of October supply eggs when they
are worth the most money, and at the
same time are gaining in weight; but
the old hens about that time begin
moulting. and do nothing for three or
four months, neither do they gain in
weight, but they still eat, and during
that time are an absolute loss. Sell
them.
Keep none but thrifty young cocks,
one to ten hens. Give the hens varie-
ty of food, which assures vitality of the
eggs. Select none but the freshest of
eggs for Matching purposes. Do not set
a hen until her inclination has been
proved for four or five days. Place the
nests upon the ground or near it, to pro-
cure the right amount of moisture.
