HAPHAZARD MARKETING.

To grow farm crops and produce of
various kinds is One thing, while to
find paying market for them is an
other. The latter, however, is quite as
essential as the former, if farming is
to be remunerative. A great deal can
be done towards profitable marketing
by the exercise of care in the prepara-
ton Of produce for the market. A
clean, bright package of butter will
sell a half dozen times while one that
is the reverse is finding one buyer.
Mixed lots of potatoes bring a much
lower price in any market than those
that have been carefully sorted, with
only good, straight, merchantable
stock shipped. Good apples, too, are
so plenty this year and so cheap that
it is folly to ship anything except those
that have been carefully selected and
quite as carefully packed. Dressed
poultry, overscalded, or sour from hav-
ing been packed before thoroughly
cool, is the kind that goes to 15-cent
chop houses, at. of course, the prices
that such establishments can afford to
pay, which is a very low one. All
along the line the same principle ap-
plies. The care in preparation for
market, in packing and in seeing that
it reaches the buyer in first-class con-
dition, is the best recompensed care
that the seller gives. He gets more
for his work at this point, if it be
good, than anywhere else. A product
may be ever so we'll made, and yet if
1t be not put on the market right and
does not accord with the consumers
tastes and demands, may bring prices
that are wholly unremunerative.

sequently on free offerings from inside
sources, the stock dropped a fraction be-
low yesterdays closing. The volume of
business in it, though less than on
"Wednesday, made up nearly one-fourth
of the total of the general market. The

GATHERINGS Generals.

The soldiers to whom Catherine was
indebted for the glory of the Russian
arms included Rumiantsof, the conquer
or of Kagoul; the savage Kamiensi,
who would bite pieces Of flesh out Of his
men at the maneuvers and who stripped
his prisoners in 80 degrees of cold and
dashed cold water over them until they
were literally frozen; the Prince Of Mas
sau-Siegen, who was beaten by Gustavus
of Sweden at SYenskund; Joseph Ribas,
upon whom was written the unusual
epitaph that "by his own wits he be-
came good general, an excellent dip
iomat and even an honest man," and,
most famous of all, Suvorof, or Suwar-
row.
This celebrated general, who figures
inaccurately in Byron's ''Don Juan, -
short Of stature, being only feet
inches in height Suvorof was idolized
by his soldiers. He had implicit faith
in his star, his conceit was unbounded,
and he behaved sometimes like raving
lunatic. He would come out of his tent
stark naked and turn somersaults on the
grass. His other eccentriclties were
equally amazing. At times apparently
humane and averse to the shedding of
blood, ON other occasions he sanctioned
the most awful massacres. 1t was his
deliberate conviction that there were
only three great generals in the history
Of modern warfare-Turenne, Laudon
and SuvOrof Saturday Review.

Take Care of Your Teeth.

All decay of the teeth begins from
without.
Consequently if the teeth's surfaces
be kept scrupulously clean they cannot
decay.
When ought cleaning begin?
AS soon as there are teeth.
Let the child early acquire the habit
Of using a small toothbrush dipped into
chalk favored with some aromatic drug
and let it understand that the places
most needing the brush are those be-
tween the teeth.
That is the place where decay almost
invariably appears.
Mucous secretions and secretions of
food are always found between the teeth
after meal. They may be removed
with toothpick.
1t is almost an art to use q toothpick
One must beware of injuring the fleshy
parts and leaving splinters, which in
some cases may cause the loss of a
tooth. Metal toothpicks should be al
together avoided. Those of dull and
hard wood are best. London Lancet.

Big Plantations In Slavery Days.

Agriculture on a great scale in the
new west has made people forget the
great business undertakings of some
planters in the days of slavery An
English traveller describes plantation
in Louisiana where single field of
5000 acres in sugar cane and 1900 in
corn bordered the Mississippi. The plan
tation was sold not long before for near
$1,000, 900, and it yielded that year
more than 100000 worth of products
The same planter had another plantation
Of 5000 acres, worth about $3.50, 900.
One of his neighbors had saved $1,000
600 in 25 years. The crop of sugar on
the first plantation was estimated to be
worth nearly 100000 in the year of
the Englishman' s visit.

Cure Versus Prevention.

One curiously irrational feature of
the conduct of government and society
is the lavish expenditure for cure COM
pared with the pittance spent for pre-
vention. We lavish thousands upon our
asylums, which proper attention to
medical education and sanitary precau-
tions would render tenantless. We elect
rogues to Office and maintain at great
expense of time, labor and money vol
untary system of espionage to prevent
their robbing us. We build costly jails
and prisons and support expensive courts
of justice and allow uncared for waits
by thousands to throng our streets and
abodes Of evil 1t is truth which has
become trite that prevention would be
vastly more economical and beneficial
than these only half effective cures, yet
we go on day after day in utter disre-
gard of it's teachings. Chicago .Ad-

The Rathhurn mine at Mountain
Iron is probably the most vigorously
worked property upon the whole
Mesaba range. There are at present
three steam shoyels at work, two
loading and one stripping. Next
week a fourth steam shovel will be
added, which will also enter into the
work of stripping. About l4O cars per
day are loaded and shipped, and but
for want of cars many more would be
sent out.
There is a rumor of the discOvery-of

for profitable working. The latest dis
coyery seems to be just the thing

Divorce In Burma.

Divorce in Burma is free. 1t can be
claimed by either party for any good
reason, such as incompatibility of tenn
per, and carries no slur with it. No
lawsuit is required. They go to the vii
lage elders, in town to the elders of
the quarter, and divorce paper is
drawn up that defines all arrangements
as to property and children.
The law as to property is this: Each
retains his or her own property, and all
property acquired jointly during married
life, as by trading, is divided equally
But the claimant of the divorce must
leave the house and all the household
goods to the other. If it be the woman,
she may remove her loom; if it be the
man, he may take nothing. Thus there
is certain penalty ON claiming di-
vorce, but it is not large one. Black

OF Contemporaneous Human Interest


Augustin Daily has given one phrase
to American literature that, whatever
may be its defect as logical statement,
has taken such deep root in current
English that it is doubtful whether it
can possibly be eradicated, and probably
never will be dislodged. The phrase is,
"Of contemporaneous human interest.
Mr.. DAILY employed it originally in de-
scribing one of his adaptations of the
playbill The literary critics scored the
phrase unm ,rcifully at the time and
tried to ridicule it out of existence, but
it seems that despite the irresistible
conclusion that no play could possibly
possess any interest for trees or cattle as
distinguished from "human" creatures
Mr.. Daily had filled long felt want
with it, for it is now met with increas-
ing frequency. Doubtless every one who
uses it does SO under mental process
charging the responsibility on DAILY, but
it is one of those winged phrases that
drops in like an old time friend whose
clothes are not above criticism. Nv ash

A Scotch Reconciliation.

There was the "Last Anderson of

son the auld man wadna, for the very
dourness O. him. Aye, even though the
minister wad sac to his father, Father,
wall ye no. speak to yer ain son?' No
yae word wad he answer, but pass him
as though he hadna seen him, as muckle
as to say, Nae son O. minep
'sBut week or twa after the minis
ter had lost youn twa nice BARNS WI

catered at the fishin--whaur he had
game, thinkin to jock the sair thochts
that he carried ABBOTT wi him, puir man.
They were bath keen fishers an graun

hat to his father an gaun by, but the
auld man stood still in the middle O. the
fitpad, wi eye queer look in his face,
Waffle, he said, an for gae blink the
minister thocht that his father was

him do in all his life. But the auld man
didna' greet. "Wattie, says he to his
son, 'hae ye huik?'
'Aye, Saunders, that was a. he said,

and some half dizzen fine fees forbye,
