A Rnsv Arohhishon.

The archbishop of Canterbury is a
busy man. He is bishop CT Kent and
part of Surrey. That means much trav-
cling about He has to act as final ref
cree in affairs of the English church all
over the world. That means selecting
bishops and settling difficult questions.
He is head Of all the English bishops,
and has to hold frequent meetings to
discuss all questions touching the
church. He is governor of several great
schools, and has to consult with other
governors as to how they are to be
managed. Then he must attend the
house Of lords, where the archbishop is
bound not to be a party man.
So much for the archibshop's duties.
Now about the way he performs them.
To large extent by writing letters, in
answer to the missives which pour into
Lambeth palace from early morn to
night. The archbishop opens as many
letters himself as he can, always him
self reading those marked private, "
and the secretaries, three in number, do
the rest. Then the secretaries come in
with their baskets, read the letters out
and take notes, while the archbishop
says how they are to be answered.
All day long this is going on. When
ever there is a spare moment it is let
ters, letters. The secretaries drive with
him sometimes as he gees to a meeting,
and read letters to him all the time as
they go.-London Tit-Bits.

A presidential candid ate on the
stump ought TO be very careful to
nave all his statements accl rate. at
Newton Mr.. Bryan said: s. IF we have
a gold standard prices will go down"
Effect was given to the gold stand
ard by the resumption ofspecie gold
payments in 1879. The average ex-
port price of wheat IN that year was
S1.07. In 1880 it was S1.25; in 1881,
S1.11; in 1882, S1.19; in 1888, $1.13; in
1884, S107. In 1879 the export price
of cotton was (without fractions) 8
cents In the six years following it
ranged from 10 to II. 1t was 10 again
in 1890 and 1891, just as wheat was
s1.O3 again in 1892. The export price
was five cents higher in 1894 than in
1879, and that of cheese nearly one
cent higher.
Wages also steadily advanced after
the gold resumption in 1879, and the
country prospered in the main until
1892, when imitation by cheap dollars
and treasury notes, combined with
the extravaganza of Congress brought
disaster. N. Y. World.

One of the daily papers gives this
story Of the good Queen Victoria. 1t
is related of three pretty children of
a Presbyterian minister whom the
queen, in one of her drives III Scot
land last year, noticed playing on the
lawn in front of the ministers manse
A servant was sent to the children,
directing them to come out to the
queens carriage.
The little ones begged the man to
wait moment, and the three hlxen
heads went into hurried consultation
Mother and father were both out how
were they to address her Majesty?
They hurriedly decided that they
could not do better than to address
the queen as the kings OF old We're adj
dressed in the Bible history. Accord
ingly, the trio, two little girls and
boy, approached the queens carriage,
and, kneeling in a row on the side
walk, exclaimed, 80 Queen, live for
ever!n
The illustrious old lady WAS over
whelmed with merriment, and the
children arose from their knees some
what crestfallen. They We're all three
kissed by her Majesty, and soon reas-
sured by kindly words. But, as the
carriage drove away, the children
once more fell on their knees; and
their cry again of 80 Queen live for
ever!" mingled with the laughter of
the queen and her ladies' in waiting.

 Good, rotten leaf mold is good mate rial to mix with the soil for house plants. The reports as to the number of stock hogs for fattening show as a general av- craze. for the United States decrease of "A per cent as compared with last year. largely due to the scarcity of feed last season. e.es
 Trees in an orchard that is never ma nured exhaust the fertility in. the soil withip reach of their roots and then fail to bear as we'll as was. expected.
 One can waste a good deal of food in fruitless attempts to get eggs. There is no better plan than to feed the hens on a varied diet with the necessary egg-shell material. & Charcoal is much appreciated by fowls The best is formed by charred grains. Roasted corn is one of the best ways of supplying charcoal. .tn
 Few people mulch their peach trees, yet little thought will show their need of it. The peach is generally planted on sandy or gravelly soil, which freezes deeply in winter. A covering of snow would prevent the soil freezing down to the extremity of the roots. but such coy- ering is not to be depended on A good mulch properly applied would do muci, towards removing complaint at the lack of hardness of the peach.

Charlotte Corday's Physical Picture.

Dr. Cabanes, in La Revue Hebdomadaire, describes "La Vraie Charlotte Corday." It cannot be said that he is timid. Her contemporaries have thought that "her complexion had the transparency of milk, the carnation of roses and the velvetiness of peaches. They have thought also that "she was not pretty. Her face was hard, insolent and as if marked with erysipe- las" One witness says that "Mlle. Cor day was not handsome, but her expression was so sweet, so sweet" Some say that she was tall rather than small; others say that she was tall; many say that she was decidedly small. Her passport makes her height feet inch. Her hair, according to an official document, was ohestnut ac- cording to another official document, it was blond; Mne. Hauer, wife of the paint CT who made Charlotte's portrait, says that her hair was "cendre" - that is, mouse or drab or ash colored. Abbe Di- none who had q lock of her hair, says that it was neither red nor 'cendre. Dr. Cabanes says decisively that she was beau tiful, of average height, and that her hair was chestnut. History, founded on au- thentic documents, says that her expres- sion was sw eet and sour; that her com plexion was of milk and roses and marked at the same time as by erysipelas, and she was of tall, small and medium height; i; that she was blond dark and neither dark nor blond. History is a science.

Potash Fertilizinr.

These potash fertilizers contain potash and no other plant food. Kainite has about 12 or 13 per cent of actual potash, muriate about 50 per cent. and sulphate (high grade) nearly as much. Sulphate of potash and magnesia, I think, has about 25 to 30 per cent of actual potash potassium oxide). A pound of this is worth AZ or 5 cents, and every one can figure out for himself what ton of each one of these fertilizers is worth. The sul- phate food is usually considered the more valuable one. but have always obtained as good results from muriate of potash. I prefer to buy this as the cheaper of tha two. Applied in excessive doses, it is liable to do damage to some crops. l found this out once when l applied it at the rate of 500 pounds per acre on an ex- perimental potato plot, and could not raise even crop of weeds on the piece for two seasons. Usually, 1t is safer to apply muriate of potash as well as kainite in the fall. SOW it broadcast by hand as I would SOW wheat, and rather less than upward of 200 pounds of muri- ate or 500 pounds of kainite per acre. In exceptional cases. especially for fruit crops, we can exceed these rates. even largely where the potash supply in the soil has become we'll reduced.
 Throw a lot of claff from the barn floor of the poultry house and throw corn over it. It will keep the hens busy. ctf
