Certainly there never was a buster
life tran that of Jesus-His whole
great mission bounded by three hur-
ried years. Yet in the morning he
saws to His friends: LET us come
apart and rest awhile;" and again,
when the evening is come He is in the
mountain apart, alone. That is the
place of worship in a world of work.
1t is not a refuge from duty, or a
Sinking of it; it is the renewal of
power to meet ones duty and do it.
The work of life is not to be well done
with a hot, feverish, overwhelmed,
and burdened mind; it is to be well
done with a mind Gained and forti-
fed by moments of withdrawal; and
it is to be best done by one who from
time to time pulls himself up in his
eager life and permits God to speak
to his soul.

Halls Family Pills are the best.

No better proof of the benefit to be
derived from the use of warm food
for pigs can be put forward than the
appearance and touch of the animals
themselves. The badly used pig, as I
put it, has skin which is harsh to
the touch and possesses a somewhat
forbidding aspect. The we'll treated
animal, on the other hand, has a soft,
well kept coat, which the eye loves to
dwell upon. One denotes a ssslow
doer," the other means searly matur-
ity." Another strong argument in
favor of cooked food for pigs is to be
found in the appearance of the ami
mails fed by cottagers and small hold
ers. The cottager, it may be, feeds
one pig every year. The animal is
brought from its fellows at weaving
time, and thenceforth condemned to
solitary confnement-a state of af-
fairs, if anything, opposed to good
progress. But what is the result?
The average cottager's pig holds it's
own with it's fellows, which may be
kept upon the farm, and is more like
ly than not to beat them in the race
for weight, Notwithstanding the fact
that its fare, as rule, is inferior, it's
quarters are more cramped, and it's
bedding material is more scanty than
in the case of it's former companio MS.

The event of the literary year will
be, undoubtly, the great novel upon
which Count Tolstoy has been labor
ing in order that he may devote the
proceeds to the transportation to
Canada of three hundred thousand
Russian Quakers. 1t is generally be-
lieved by his friends that this work
will probably mark the conclusion of
Count Tolstoy's literary career. Not
merely on this. account, but because
of the subject treated, it will attra ct
the widest attention, the world over.
It is a profound study of the life of
three phases of love-that of the youth
that of the young man, and that of
the man in mature age. The Cosnao-
poIitdn Magazine announces that it
has secured the sole right of publica-
ton.

August. At the base of Nelson's mon

He was leaning with his back against

beaded with perspiration.
Feel chilly.
Chilly? Great Scott, man! Do you
know you are on a steaming pave
ment, leaning against steaming granite
and looking as though you were on a
polar expedition. I'll call an ambu-
lance.
No, you won't, laughed the other,
I'll be used to it in a little while. I
don't like to cool down too suddenly,
don't you see?
No, don't see, replied the stout
one, who began to think he was deal
ing with a lunatic. When a man tells
me he's chilly and that he's cooling
down too rapidly in this atmosphere,
I've finished with him. Good day.

There has been no trial of a staff
head of department in the army since
President Arthur's administration,
when Gen. Swain, then judge abvo-
cate general, was court martialled
and sentenced to suspension from
dnty until past the period for his re-
tirement.
Gen. Swain was accused of conduct,
it is claimed, however, in nowise re-
lated to army discipline or the rela
tions of one officer toward another.
His offence was of a financial nature,
rather than a question of military
order and discipline. The records
show that but few officers of Gen.
Egan's rank have been court mar
tailed, although one officer asserted
this evening, there were a number
who should have been. The trial of
a staff head is recorded seldom, for it
is generally regarded that when an
officer attains that distinction and
rank he may be regarded almost as
''immune" to a court.
Gen. Egan's record in the army has,
of course, been closely scrutinized by
the officials since the probability of
his being tried arose, and discovery
has been made, although the older
officers were cognizant of the fact,
that back in 1873 Eagan had been
court martialled in Arizona for not
paying his gambling debts. Col.
Kautz, now on the retired list, was
at that time colonel of an infantry
regiment with which it is understood,
Egan was then serving. Gen. Egan
then pleaded guilty to some of the
charges, but escaped sentence, it ts
said, on some technicality, but was
roundly reprimanded in the order re-
viewing the case.

At the semi annual meeting of the
Union Bank of London Mr.. Schuester,
the governor, said the United States
had become a most important factor,
which must not be overlooked in fore
casting the future. The remarkable
activity of trade in the United States
after successful war and prospective
new markets, together with abundant
harvests, had created an unprecedent
ed trade balance in favor of that coun-
try, which had already made itself felt
on this side, and for the first time he
believed it might be said that il was
not Europe which had financed the
United States, but New York which
had financed Europe. During the last
few months the United States had
leEt a considerable amount of cash
and its discounts in London and Ber-
lin, and its power to obtain gold hence
for very large amounts whenever it
chose must pot be lost sight of.

OUR FARMERS.
FARM PORK PACKING.

There are many methods of putting
up pork for family use. Some call for
sugar curing, while others only de-
mand the use Of plain salt and plenty
of it. The latter is our usual way of
packing and our meat is always pro-
nounced as good as the best.
In cutting up hogs we always trim
hams and shoulders very close, as we
think that the fabby parts of those
pieces keep better in the lard can
than in the pork barrel. Few persons
relish the thick back fat, and that is
always cut off and rendered out, and
as it is nearly pure fat it will sell for
as much in lard as in meat.
The trimmed meat should be sprink-
led with salt and laid on a bench to
allow the blood to drain out before
the real sailing down is done; two
days is long enough to drain we'll and
we are ready for the first sailing.
Spread half an inch of salt on the bot
tom of your sailing cask or box, and
put half bushel Of salt in tub, salt
L
well, then the flesh side, working salt
into the shanks, pack. skin side down
and sprinkle layer Of salt over each
layer of meat.
Put the hams on top of the shout
ders, and the sides on top Of all and
let them lie ten days, then take up,
shake off all loose salt and resalt as at
first, using but very little salt on the
sides this time.
If you desire to sugar cure let the
meat lie but six days in first salt, then
take up, clean off all salt, and in re-
sailing use three pounds of common
brown sugar and half pound of salt
| peter to every ten pounds of salt,
rubbing the compound into the meat
as directed for pure salt. The meat
should lie in this compound at least
| two weeks, when it may be taken up,
| the salt cleaned off, the meat dipped
| in a solution made of two pounds of
borax to ten gallons of water, hung
| up to dry and smoke. The borax So
luton should be kept at tempera-
ture of about $50 degrees while the
meat is being dipped.
The following is said to be the meth
cd used in making the once famous
Ashland hams by the Clay family of
Kentucky: Take enough spring or
| we'll water to cover the meat; for ev-
cry hundred pounds of hams or
| shoulders use brown sugar three
pounds, saltpetre one-half pound,
alum one ounce, soda one ounce. Mix
| these with the water, add salt to make
brine strong enough to bear an egg,
boil and skim and when cold pour
over the meat, which has had three
days light sailing to draw out the
blood. Weight the meat to Keep it
under the brine, and in "a to so days
hang up to smoke.
Smoke at least two weeks, and
many smoke four, using wet sawdust
or green wood. I do not think that
the kind of wood makes any differ
ence, but the Ashland hams were be-
lieved to owe some of their excellence
to the green walnut wood used in
smoking them.-C. d. Lyon i'll Ec-
