The Hessian Fly.

From Success Magazine.
Few persons know that the Hessian fly
Is one of the oldest of all crop pests in this
country and that It's name was given to it
as i result Of the fact that it was brought
into the United States in the straw inelud-
ed in the imredimenta Of the Hessian
troops sent over against the American Re
yoluliouists by George Ill in l776. 1t
was Grst noticed on Long Island about %
years ago. and since has spread eoexten-
,iyeIy with the progress of civilization and
wheat growing west. north and south.
Sometimes it completely destroys the grow
ing wheat in certain sections, and the aver
age loss il causes is about 40, 000, 900
bushels annually, or about 6 or per cent
Of the total crop.

There is not day IN our lives that we
are not distressed by some one of those
numberless little worries that meet us at
every step, and which are inevitable. The
wound made may not be deep, but the
constant pricks each day renewed, embitter
the character, destroy peace, create anxiety,
and make the family life, that otherwise
would be so sweet and peaceful, almost
uncomfortable. Life is full of these little
miseries. Each hour brings with it its
own trouble. Here are some of the little
worries An impatient word escapes our
lips, in the presence of some one in whose
estimation we would stand we'll A ser
want does his work badly, idgets us by his
slowness, irritates by his thoughtlessness,
and his awkward blunders make us blush.
\ child in its clumsiness breaks something
of value, or that we treasure on account
of its associations; we are charged with a
message of Importance, and our forgetful
ness makes US appear uncourteous, perhaps
ungrateful; someone we live with is con-
stantly finding fault, nothing pleases them.
If. when night comes, we find we have not
experienced these little worries, then we
ought to be grateful to God. Each of
these aud many more are liable to befal
US every day of our life.

How Wines Are Colored.

Most people think white grapes make
white wine and dark grapes make red
wine, said vintner in the Minneapolis
Journal. That is a popular error.
Red wine is made by fermenting grape
juice and grape skins together, the skins
giving the color, and white wine is made
by fermenting grape juice alone.
The juice Of white and Of dark grapes
doesn't differ in hue In each sort OF
grape the juice Is almost eolorless, like the
weakest lemonade.
Champagne, one of the dearest of the
white wines, is made of a grape so dark as
to be nearly black. But the juice Of that
nearly black grape is quite as pale as the
juice of the blondest white grape.

The following anecdote is told Of Gen.
Gilman Marston, once famous New
Hampshire lawyer.
General Marston was attending court at
Dover, when young attorney made
motion that was denied by the court. The
Young man demonstrated against what he
thought was the wrong ruling Of the judge.
So vehemently did he demonstrate that he
was fined $40 for contempt of court. An
older attorney took the matter up, and he
was fined a similar sum. Still another,
who thought he stood little better with
the Judge, endeavored to straighten the
matter out, but he, too, enriched the cof
fers of the state by paying 'ten spot
for contempt,
General Marston was then seen to rise
in his seat and advance to the clerk S desk.
Taking his long pocketbook from his
pocket, he took out two ten-dollar bills
and laid them on the desk
''What is that for?'' said the court
Il want you to distinctly understand,
said the general, THAT have just twice
as much contempt for this d court as
any man here, and am paying for it. -

When Richard Olney was secretary of
state he frequently gave expression to the
opinion that appointees to the consular ser
vice should speak the languages of the
countries to which they were respectively
accredited.
1t is said that when certain breezy
and enterprising Western politician who
was desirous of serving the Cleveland
administration in the capacity of consul at
one of the Chinese ports presented his
papers to Mr.. Olney, the secretary re-
marked
Are you aware, Mr. Blank, that |
never recommended to the President the
appointment of consul unless he speaks
the language of the country to which he
desires to 90? Now, | suppose, YOU do
not speak Chinese?'
Whereupon the Westerner grined
broadly, ''If, Mr., Secretary, said he,
''you will ask me question in Chinese |
shall be happy to answer it. -
He got the appointment.
