THE ELECTRICAL PIANO.-A piano
on an entirely new principle is an
nounccd from Germany. The strings
are stretched across the sounding
board as in the ordinary piano, but
the entire hammer mechanism is ab-
sent. Instead, the depressing Of the
key puts in action magnet, which
automatically attracts and releases
the wire, thus producing vibrations
without the metallic stroke which ac-
companies the sound in the common
type. The resulting effect upon the
tones is said to be very remarkable
The high notes resemble those OF an
Aeolian harp. The middle or lower
notes are like cello or an organ. II
responds readily to every variation II
power and expression. A note can b'
sounded for several minutes withou
varying in quality. So radically differ
ent from all existing Instruments ar,
the effects that a new style Of music il
needed to bring out its capabilities.

THE WAY TO TREAT A HUSBAND
The following is an old d-faShioned
housewives recipe for cooking a hus-
band BE sure and select him your
self as tastes differ DO not 90 to
the market for him, as the best are
always brought to your door, 1t is far
better to have none, unless you will
patiently learn how to cook him. A
preserving kettle OF the llneSt pOrce-
lain is best. but il you have nothing
but an carthenware plpkin it will do
with care. See that the linen in which
you wrap him is nicely washed and
mended, with the requite number Of
button and strings neatly sewn on.
Tie him to the saucepan by a strong
Silken cord. called comfort, as the one
called duty is apt to be weak. He is
apt to fly out Of the saucepan, and ben
burned and cruSty on the edges, since,
like crabs and Holsters, you have to
cook him while alive. Make a clear,
steady fire out Of love, ncatnesS and
Cheerfulncss. Set him as near this as
seems to agree with him. If he splut-
tcrs and hzzes do not be anxious
some husbands do this until they are
quite done. And little sugar, in
the form Of what cOnfectiOnerS call
kisses, but no vinegar or pepper on
any account. A little spice improves
him, but it must be used with judg-
ment. Stir him gently and watch the
while lest he lie too fiat and too close
to the saucepan to become useless
You cannot fail to know when he is
done. Ifthus treated he will be found
very digestble, agreeing nicely with
you and the children and is warranted
to keep as long as you wish, unless
you become careless and set him in a
cold place.

SQUAN CREEK FOLKS.

AGRICULTURE TIE MAINSTAY
OF THE NATION.

w NJ King In the Washington Post
1t las been well and truthfully
stated that agriculture may well be
studied both as "A science and an art.
II is Il science because it is based on
natures laws, and an art because it
can be made productive Of those arti-
cles that contribute so much to the
welfare Of mankind.
Agriculture is a science which ex-
plains the mode Of cultiyating the
ground so as to cause it to produce in
plenty and perfection those grains,
fruits and vegetable products which
are useful to man, and to such ami
mails as are reared by him for food and
labor.
For these reasons. if for no others.
the principles Of agricultural science
should be taught in all schools and
colleges, as well as any other Of the
sciences and arts. First see that a
knowledge OF the principles is ac-
quircd, and their application later
will become not only pleasant, but
profitable.
No occupation is better calculated
to call forth the learning OF the
man Of science than that Of agrlCul-
ture, and none in which man can en-
gage with more honor or to which
more honor should be attached
Good farming is the handspring OF
national progress. The farmer whC
calls to his aid the light Of modern
science and doubles his crop per acre
is justly entitled to more praise than
he who builds cities.
When the first general assembly OF
the agriculturi>ts Of France was held
its first president, NJ, Dronyn de
rHuys, in his opening address, said;
Agriculture is the noblest Of pro-
fessions; stable as the earth which is
its base, pure as the sunshine which
cnightens, free as the air which gives
it life; it ripenS reason, fortllics the
character and eleyates the soul toward
the Creator by the continued Specta-
Gle of the miracles of creation. Ag-
rIculture is seated upon the granite
upon which the State rcpOses."
All honor, then, TO agriculture as
science, as an art, and as the main
stay or the naJlOn.
