vocation. Try to find for him q play mate who ia manly and of euuable tenn perarnent, who win greet any outburst with stare of good-natured wonder. Also. strive to avoid occasions for fits of anger. There is great dealsin habit. Every week passed in peace is gain. while every outbreak renders another easier.
 .srhe passionate temperament is not one to be affected beneficially by physical punishment. A grave dlspleasure. the withdrawal of privileges. the refusal oi services or caresses. are more likely to impress the nervous, sensitive nature.
 Preaching to children is often de- precated, but quiet talk may be of val ue when the heart is softened with re- morseful shame. Point out how misera- ble the passion of anger makes all the household. how useless 1t is, how dread- full may be the results of a nasty blow. Appeal to manliness, to nliaI and family love. and try to build up genuine reso- lution to conquer angry passions and to keep them always under control"
 Discipline, writes another competitor, Ifs an all-important factor in the sue cessful training of child. for discipline teaches self-controi, and without self control no temper can be cured. Reason ing with child Is practicaily useless. and anger does more harm than good. Kind ness, with . calm firmness, will bring about astonishing results ie consistently practiced. As to punishment. 1t should fit the crime. Make the child realize fhat its bad temper will not be tolerated, that it causes suffering not only to others but to itself."

A Test for Adulterated Cotton Seed Meal.

Anyone, dealer or buyer. can surely and quickly tell good cotton seed meal from feed meal (adulterated malt). Place Il teaspoonful of the meal (do not use more) in a tumbler an pour over 1t an ounce and a half to two ounces of hot water. Stir the mass until 1t is thoroughly wet Up and all the particles are floating. AL low 1t to subsIde for from five to ten seconds and pour of. If large amount of fine. dark brown sediment has settled in this time, a sediment noticeably heavier than the fine mustard-yellow meal, one which upon repeated treatments with boiling hot water keeps settling out, the goods are feed meal. 1. e.. meal con- taining relatively large quantities of ground hulls. All meal contains small quantities of hulls and show dark specks. If, however. there is found a large amount of this residue, one which per- sists in remaining behind after several washings and decantlngs. 1t Is surely com posed of hulls and the goods is a feed meal. The results of this test are very striking when feed meal Is compared with a meal of known purity, which IS similarly tested at the same time.-Ver- mont Experiment Station.

Removing Sweet Potato vin,,.

fI.saW. MOrTiS- IIl f6riIl anu ftancn.
 It is a sort of nuisance anyway you get at it.. But have tried the hoe. the pole method and all known means and the best have found is the common light briar scythe. It Is not fast. but as fast, if not faster than any other way and the vines are entirely out of the way and covered up by the blow.
 Get short briar scythe and reasonably sharp, and with the point just under the vines a few inches from the roots, with a point just a little in the ground so as to be sure to cut all the vines. Then you can bar off and completely cover the vines in the middle oe the row. I take one side at time in cutting. Sometimes only cut one side; bar off and with a large blow turn the potatoes out. But 1t Is best to cut both sides and the vines will not be fin the way in the least. All that @need be done fin cutting is simply to cut the vines and she blow will never know they are there. l generally cut the opposite side from me. though either may be cut.
 Another thing want to note Is, to make the stroke back towards the cut vines which prevents the tendency to pile up before the scythe. I generally begin this cutting come time before digging, as 1t in no way injures the potatoes.
 Dragging them off with a blow Is hard work on man and horse and shen it Is a long time before the vines will rot. Get the vines cut with the scythe-just sim ply run the blade along so as to sever the vines, and they will not be in the way in the least be covered and routed before blow time.

How to Cure a Child of Bad Temper

In a. competition just concluded in one of the English magazines prize was cf- fered for the best suggestion concerning the management and correction of bad tempered children. An enormous number of sugggestions was received. conveying a wide variety of ways in which to fnstilI docility, obedience and amiabillty into the minds of cantankerous boys and girls. E
 The prize winning article. written by a young woman school teacher, contains some unusually sensible and interesting suggestions about the proper methods of handling children. It reads as follows:
 ''To remove An evil we must seek out its cause. If a young child persistently shows violent temper. let us examine its circumstances and environment. There may be delicate health, rendering self control more difficult. If so. much may be effected by change of air. strengthen ing diet and perhaps a suitable tonic. Or the child may be irritated at home or school by some bullying teacher or older child, or even servant, from whose power he must be removed.

The Christmas Feeling Like an. Uns

December St. Nicholas League.

December St. Nicholas League.
 Among all evenings in the year, and all the days, there Is no other evening like Christmas eve, no other day like Christ mas day. Whether the eve and the day be dark and stormy, or still and fair. does not matter. The difference is not in the weather or the season. but in that more subtle atmosphere which. from genera ton to generation through all the cen turtles. has been our inheritance from the first Christmas eve and day when a new born Babe sent It's wailing cry from the manager of Bethlehem.
 The world looks different through this Christmas atmosphere. However festive or sad the occasion, however gay or gloomy the streets may be. whatever may be our surroundings, the Christmas feel ing Is there. No one may say just where in 1t lies. 1t Is like an unseen halo that gIorihes and makes holy every good thought and impulse, while 1t reveals In darker relief whatever is tragic, un- worthy, or vicious. A great disaster on Christmas eve or day shocks us as is does at no other season; great joy comes in that sweet raiment of gladness that only Christmas brings. Through nine- teen centuries has this light hngefea round the hearts of men. and through all those ages 1t has not grown dtn. Aear after year slips by and Is added to tns mast. But with each Christmas eve eRo day our homes and our highways are or,ce more filled with the old, sweet 1oy-- the halo from that star which xess ocr Bethlehem.

 stock. making two and three crops per acre each year, whilst. on the adjoining farm 1t was difficult to make even one paying crop per year. Another great ad- vantage.in in fall and winter blowing. is that it relieves the spring pressure of work and can be done with so much less injury to the team than in the spring. 1t also causes a quicker warming of the soil in spring and thus permits of earlier plant ing. Don't let the horses or mules stand in the stable in fine weather eating their heads off, but keep them at work in the fields. Even. if land plowed now should require blowing again iusthe spring this will not hurt it but will only add to it's productivity. We in the South blow too many acres but never blow acres too fre- quently. Flow and cultivate fewer acres. but blow and cultivate them much more frequently. and thus make available the natural fertility in the soil and save mon- ey now. spent in fertilizer which at best only give temporary fertility to the soil.- Southern Planter.

ISAAC B. FEA0rN.
A Brave Con1ederate Scldier--Faith-
 ful d :. ar and Peace.

By ". H. Hurt. Co. C. 18th Ala. Regiment.
 Lieutenant Colonel Isaac B. Feagin joined the 18th Alabama Regiment on its organization at Fort Mitchei, in Russell County. as First Lieutenant of the Mid way. Guards. Capt. John w.. L. Daniel. The Regiment was mustered into the ser vice of the Confederate States some time in July. 1881. The Captain of the Mid way Guards being elected. Major Iaeuten- ant Feagin was elected Captain of this company, which became Company B of the Regiment with Captain Feagin rank ing second in the list of captains. Capt. A. A. Lowther of Company A. ranking as first Captain. Capt. P. V. Guerry of Com pany c. third. so on down to Company u in alphabetical order. The Regiment ina- mediately on its organization, was sent to Virginia. and participated in nearly every battle fought by that noble body of men called "The Army of Northern Virginia" Captain Feagin was very pop
 uIar with the men in not only his own
 company. but of all the Regiment. He
 was known by them all to be brave and efficient of1cer, one who shirlxed no du- ties. and was always at his post.
 After the seven days battles around Richmond, Colonel Canty and Lieutenant Colonel Treutlin. the Colonel and Lieuten- ant Colonel, respectively. of the Regi- m6ut, DelnT aDSeut on IuTlOu&ns Gne com
 nand of the Regiment devoIved on Major Lowtfer, (AdaJor Daniel having previous ly resigned and Captain Lowther being promoted to his place.) Captain Feagin acting as Lieutenant Colonel, Captain Query having previously been killed at Gaines's Mill. For some reason which I don't know, during the remainder of this year, and during the hard fought bat ties of Second Manaasas Chantilly and Sharpsburg. Major Lowther was absent from duty, and Captain Feagin command ed the Regiment, displaying qualities of commander which greatly added to hls reputation. and further endeared him to his men. Sometime in the winter of 1882 Colonel Canty being promoted to Brlga- dier General. and Lieutenant Colonel Treutlin having previously resigned. Cap tain Feagin was commissioned as Lieu tenant Colonel of the Regiment which position he held until the surrender at Appomattox.
 He was twice severely wounded in bat tie. leaving a leg at Gettysburg. Colonel Feagin was of a genial. cheerful dispo- sition, approachable at all times by any man in his Regiment from the humblest private up Calm and cool in the face of danger, never allowing himself to be car ried away by excitement. As illustrating this characteristic of him, will relate an incident which occurred during the battle of sharpsburg. The 18th Alabama

PRESIDENT ELIOT
On Public School Methods.

President Eliot Of Harvard univer-
sity, in an address before the Collegiate
Alumnae association at Buffalo Tues
day night on the subject, What the
Public Schools Should Do for Children"
spoke. of the methods Of education to
BE employed among children in the
pu5lic schools. Among other things he
said:
An all important function of the
teacher, seldom, indeed. to be seen in
our public schools. is the helping for
ward of the brightest children. Our
schools tend too much to become ma
chimes with an average product; the
bright are held back, the dull are press
Ell forward; the pace must be me-
dunn one. What a hideous injury to
bright childrcn-almOst as bad as the
injury which q labor union works on
the brightest members of the craft, the
compelling them never to do their best.
You can hardly do a greater injury to
a human mind than that.

NOT ONE GUN FOR PLATT.
Hundred Round Salute Forbidden by
the Mayor

New York, Jan. 21.-The mayor to-
day refused to sign the permit for the
firing Of the salute Of one hundred guns
in honor of Thomas c. Platt's re-elec-
ton as United States senator. The
salute was to have been fired between
1 and 2 o'clock this afternoon in the
City Hall Park by the Lincoln Repub-
lican club, whose request for the privi-
lege yesterday was unanimously grant
ed by the board Of aldermen, a reso-
luton to that effect having been intro
duced by Alderman Seebeck at the in
stance of Postmaster Van Colt.
In refusing the permit, the mayor
said:
I am sorry to be obliged to withhold
my approval from the aldermanic reso-
luton authorizing the Lincoln club to
fire salute of one hundred guns in
the City Hall Park in honor of Sena-
tor Platt's reelection. I should be glad
to facilitate the desire Of the Lincoln
club to fire such salute in a suitable
place; but the City Hall Park does not
seem to be to be such a place. Since
the accident in Madison Square, feel
that too much care cannot be exercised
as to the use of explosives in crowded
parts of the city,
