The Children's Gift t Hans Andersen. The followiog letter from the Danish poet, liana Christian Andersen, to "White law Reid, the editor of the New York Tritxtn. will be read with interest by oth ers beside the children. The arrival of the books at the time they did on his seventieth birthdaywas a very happy coincidence : CorXKHisz, April 17, 1875. Iear Sir During a long period it has weighed on my mind to address you to express my sincerest thanks for all the pynipathy you have shown me but my illness has pressed me down during this severe winter so that I have had, and still have, great difficulty in writing. It af forded me great pleasure to receive thj volumes about America, with their beauti ful illustrations, alter your having so heartily interpreted my utterances about the subscriptions raised in my favor, when the dear children broke their savings boxes in order to support their tale-teller, whom they believed in want.. Christmas morning lreceived the advice by telegraph. I expected the books ere long, and I had then decided immediately to send you, my noble, sympathizing friend, a letter in re ply. In the meantime weeks and months passed awaj'. I therefore wrote to my honored friend, Gen. Christensen, New York, in order to get information whether the books were lying with some Itookseller or, perhaps, at the bottom of the sea. About simultaneously with his friendly reply I got advice that the steamer had ar rived, and exactly on my seventieth birth day I received the books. I rejoice at this gift, the dearest that could be granted to me from the powerful country where I am happy to have so many friends, young nud old. Now, I do not only read about lut I have before my eyes this beautiful country, where my age and delicate state of health will never allow me to come. How charming if it could have been done next year to the great feast; but this is quite out of the question. I have, how ever, reached a greater happiness than millions of others. My seventieth birth day was a day of sunshine and bliss from my native country and from abroad, far away, came beautiful gifts, letters and telegrams, and the charming present from America arrived. I have to thank the Lord for such infinite trrace. Yes, I am a child of fortune. My life is the most Ixautiful tale. But I lelt myself overpow rred ; my delicate health could not bear it. During the fortnight after the birthday I have been suffering, and unable to write this letter, which I have been Tery anx ious to send you. Be content, pray, with my words, and give my thanks in richer and better expressions to young and old. The precious work, " Picturesque Ameri ca," is to me a dear present, and will be preserved after me as a memory of the American youths' love of their old tale teller, Hans Christian' Andeksen. Justice in Tnrkey. The Constantinople correspondent of the Providence Journal 6ays: "The legal science does not flourish in Turkey. Some of your readers will per haps want to remove there when they are informed that there is no such thing known as a writ of execution upon attach ment for contempt, or a subpoena to con trol the attendance of witnesses. The le gations look out for their respective coun . trymen, but the Turks must look out for themselves. There are several local courts for the decision of controversies arising between Turkish subjects, but the Judges are men w ho might as well be toll-gatherers on the Stamboul Bridge, and are changed with every change in the Minis try. Whichever party litigant pays the court the most ' backsheesh' gets the most of the kind of justice he wants. There is one court which will receive in evidence only written documents, another which will recognize nothing in writing, but de cides only on parol testimony. According ly the strongest party moves his case into the court which will best suit his purpose. Dr. Washburn told me that some five years ago proceedings were commenced against Roberts College by an adjoin ing landed proprietor, who claimed that his iand was encroached upon. The title to the college territory is registered in the name of a Turkish subject, and con sequently the local court had no jurisdic tion. All the Judges appeared on the premises, and squatting down upon the ground proceeded, with the aid of pipes and coffee, to hear the case. The defense tartook more of the treatment adopted y the medical than by the legal profes sion. It was to apply a counter-irritant. A friendly Turk appeared as soon as the fdaintiff stated his claim against the col ege, and set up for himself a claim to the land in dispute. This proceeding forthwith made him a party to the cause, and thereupon the college claimed that this new controversy ought to be settled lcfore its property should le put in jeop ardy. The court saw the wisdom of this reasoning, and the two Turks have 6ince that time lteen fairly at work with a pros pect of arriving at a conclusion some time during the next Hegira. "The criminal law docs not regard of fenses as committed against the State, but against the individual injured or his family. The system of punishment is that which belongs to the lex talionis, and.in case of a murder, even, the executioner before tak ingthe life of the criminal, isobliged to call aloud three times upon the next of kin to say if they will condone the crime for money. If they assent, the life of the criminal is spared." A Hotel ruff. A correspondent of the Cincinnati En quirer writes the following eulogy of a certain hotel at Atlanta, Ga. : " It's the largest hotel, I presume, in the world. Many people who go up in the sky parlors to repose never come down, but go right on through to heaven without change of elevators, and those who have written back say they could smell the hair oil on the hair of the clerks all the way up. The halls are so long and winding that many of the waiters get lost while going aiur a pitcher of water, and are nevcr heard of until their remains are found years after. I went in there one morning and ordered breakfast. A small colored boy took my order, and it was so far out to the kitchen that he was grown and gray-headed when he got back. It is a very large house hotel I Many travelers going South and returning by this city order their meals in advance, and frequently when they get back they have to lay over a week to make connections. The hotel is a very large one, and everything about it is very large. irom me leei 01 me clerks, tlie mouths ot the w aiters, up to the bills.

A eonRESPoxDEXT, who evidently cares nothmgfor the fact that the tresses of the Lydia Thompson 6tyle have gone out of fashion, pens the following: ' She whom I love has golden hair, the Loreley's witching, golden hair, an aureole beyond compare, fit nimbus for her face so fair. She whom I love has golden hair, cas cades of dazzling golden hair, with danc ing gleams that seem to dare e'en mock the sun's bewild'ring glare. She whom I love has golden hair, Golconda mines of golden hair, sly Cupid's fell and fatal snare to haste me to foreseen despair." if. T.Graphic.

Excliange. Jiorlh and South. In a recent editorial under the above caption Harjier't We&ly comments oa the reconciliation sentiments contained In the speech of Gen. Bartlett at the Lexington centennial, and on the conciliatory and friendly sentiments advanced in subse quent speeches by Gen-. Bradley T. John son at Bichmond, Va., and Gen. Evans in Georgia. The editorial concludes as fol lows : " But, on the other hand, it is not to bo denied that the conciliatory sentiments which Gens. Evans and Johnson now ex press in the name of their late comrades in arms have not controlled the political nc tion of the white leaders in the Southern States since tlio war closed. First, the positive action taken in those States under ihe hojes aroused by the milign acci dont of .Andrew Johnson's Presidency! then the abstinence front political af fairs or the indifference to them; then the apparent acquiescence in the Ku Klux and the White League these, as illustrations, all showed a feeling which was far from conciliatory, and which nec essarily gave ' the South no other politi cal sympathizers in ' the North' than the Copperheads of the war, a body of men most justly and universally distrusted, and who have hitherto controlled the Demo cratic party. Had Gens. Johnson and Evans and hundreds of their associates opposed as openly and frankly and strong ly tiie many unquestionable wrongs done to the new citizens in the Southern States as they now approve the generous words of Gen. Bartlett, had they shown a hearty desire and it was not difficult to show it of cordial co-operation with honest and patriotic Republicans in the Northern States, they would have found a quick and satisfactory response. But the speeches made by Wade Hampton at the time of the nomination of Seymour in 18(W, and the tone of the Democratic National Con vention, in which the Southern Suites took part, forbade patriotic men, w hen the sim ple alternative was the Republican or Democratic party, to hesitate for a moment in sustaining the former. ' The Republican policy, which is de nounced by the late Confederates as, for instance, in Fitz Hugh Lee's letter to Gen. Bartlett, approving his speech as ven geance, was, in fact, not vengeance at all, but a policy w hich the conduct of the Southern leaders imposed upon the ma jority. And while we and, we venture to say, the great mass of Republicans sym pathize to the utmost with the fraternal spirit and aspiration of the speeches of the soldiers upon both sides to which we have alluded, the practical question is, in what way can we all make those good wishes effective and promote that recon ciliation? It is a question that we shall all have to answer practically in 1876, and to answer by deciding upon a simple al ternative, as in lyfW. If the ex-Confed-crate soldiers suppose that in sustaining the Republicans the intelligence and in dustry and character of this part of the country mean to declare for a policy of vengeance and to potpone reconciliation, they are profoundly mistaken. As the patriotic intelligence of the North knew, during the w ar, that the party of the Cop perheads w as not the party of a real peace, so it instinctively knows now that the same party is not one of a real reconciliation. It is the party of the cause that lost, not of that which won; and its success would be a disastrous surrender of the principles and policy which must mold and guide the new Union. Those ex-Confederate soldiers who are as sagacious as they are honestly desirous of lasting peace and fraternity w ill understand that the friends of the successful caue, and not its enemies, are its natural ami proper guardians. The Democratic party was the party of slave ry, and, that having disappeared, the party has no further reason for existence. When ever it calls itself the party of reform and progress and liberty and justice, its very existence is its difficulty. Honest seekers of reform might join a new organization, but they contemptuously reject for such a purpose the old organization of slavery, to which the Southern utterers of the 4 dirty froth,' and all the old Northern Copper heads, and all the secret foes of the Union and of equal rights still closely cling, it is not such a party which, in the closing words of Gen. Bartlett's speecli at Lexing ton, can secure for 4 every inch of this great country 44 gub libertateqitietem.'"" A Dirty Party Trick. The Democratic Governor and Council of New Hampshire have leen doing some very contemptible work. Gen. Nathaniel Head was a Republican candidate for State Senator. He received a majority of the votes cast, but some of the voters wrote their ballots 44 Natt Head." In con sequence of this abbreviation of Gen. Head's first name the Governor and Council have declared him defeated. One of the Democratic candidates was a Frank Jones, and as such the people voted for ln in. It turns out that Mr. Jones was christened 44 Franklin." Notwithstand ing this fact the Governor and Council gave him a certificate of election. Now, it seems to us if Gen. Head was defeated so was Mr. Jones also. 44 Natt" is as much a natural abbreviation of 44 Nathaniel" as 44 Frank" is of 44 Franklin." Altogether, the action of the Governor and Council is about as dirty a party trick as we have ever seen resorted to by any body of men claim ing respectability. Beside this it directly deprives the people of the district of the representative elected by them. We are pleased to see that several Democratic papers have warmly denounced the action of Gov. Weston and the Council in this matter. We do not understand how any honest man can sustain them. When the people of New Hampshire are next called on to elect a Governor, Gen. Head will be a strong candidate for the Republicans. The people cannot help but sympathize with a man who has been flagrantly swindled out of his election, and they would be likely to elect him to fill the place which Gov. Weston has dishonored. Right-thinking men of all parties believe that the man who is honestly chosen by the people should hold the office to which he was elected, and they will not hesitate to rebuke those w ho set aside the public verdict. 2V". Y. Dispatch. POLITICAL ITEMS. "S 55F" The New Haven Register remarks: "Probably the mule never lived that could drive Grant." That's right. Own up when you're beaten! Nonrich Bulle tin. t2T" The New Haven Pnllndium had an editorial in seven words on the New Hampshire outrage. It said: "And this is Democracy in New England." t3"The 44 Independent" Philadelphia Timet is forced to admit that 44 Pennsyl vania is undoubtedly a Republican State to-day on a full vote, honestly polled in ac cordance with the political convictions of the people." E2H" Ben Hill, of Georgia, says that secession was a mistake, but no crime; while radicalism is a crime and no mis take. This is a specimen of the silver tongued oratory that we may expect to hear in greater or less abundance when Congress meets. We have been waiting two or three months to hear something from the Dem ocratic "reform" papers in regard to the grand million-dollar steal of the Demo cratic State Treasurer of Georgia. He was not a carpet-bagger; lie was not a 44 niirger," he was a high-toned Southern gentleman. We call the attention of the shouters about Republican rascality to this little item. Perhaps it is not worth their attention! Buffalo Erpre. tW Our Republican friends must be wide awake. Wrc lot the control of the House of Representatives through the apathy of Republicans.

The small pin-head checks of black and while known as shepherd's plaid are the compromise settled upon by ladles of quiet tastes who object to plaids. These art bought in thick-looking twilled wool, which is, however, of light quality and used for basques and long round over-skirts, with plain black sleeves and lower skirt. Some entire suits are made of this fabric, trimmed with heavy bands of black gros grain. The summer silks of this checked pattern are being used in the same way and make inex pensive dresses, as the checked silk Can be bought for $1 a yard or even less, and the sleeves and lower skirt of any black silk dress already ln hand will answer. The handsomest suits of this kind have black velvet sleeves and velvet skirtt and will be worn at the watering places even in midsummer. Girlish dresses of black and white plaid silks are enlivened by bows and sashes of light bine damask ribbon. Pleated waists return to favor with the light material used for spring and sum mer. Instead of being formed entirely of pleats, even under the arms, it is the fashion now to have but three, or at most four, pleats in each back and front, turned toward the middle and meeting there; this leaves the seain oh the shoulders and the part of the waist be neath the arms plain and less bungle some than when pleated as formerly. A drawing-string is added in the back, to be concealed by the belt; the pleats extend to the end of the basque part, which is now quite long. These waists are being made'of silk, wool, grenadine, linen and percale; sometimes they are parts of costumes, sometimes they are designed to wear with various skirts. One made of gray silk of light quality,. lined with thinner white silk, has narrow black thread lace laid down each pleat ; this will.be worn in the house with black, gray, blue or brown dresses. The pleats should not extend beyond the neck of the dress, as it is difficult to make them meet on the shoulders. Ladies who object to fully-shirred sleeves for street suits have a pretty roundness given to the sleeve by making it long and drawing it up slightly by a thread in each seam. The modiste ad justs the sleeve to the arm by this thread, fastens it, and by this simple means a very good effect is obtained. The most stylish designs for the back of basques have two side bodies, with ono long side-form seam extending up to the shoulder, and the other going into the arnihole. Small knife-pleatings set on below the waist finish the back of the basque. Sleeves are almost tight, and have several small knife-pleatings turned toward the hand. Uarper't Baear. Fattening Chickens. It is hopeless to attempt to fatten chickens while they are at liberty. They must be put up in a proper coop, and this, like most other appurtenances, need not be expensive. To fatten twelve fowls a coop may be three feet long, eighteen inches high and eighteen inches deep, made entirely of bars. No part solid neither top, sides nor bottom Discretion must be used, according to the size of chickens put up. They do not want any room ; indeed, the closer they are the better, provided they can all stand up at the same time. Care must be taken to put up such as have been accustomed to be together, or they will fight. If one is quarrelsome it is better to remove it at once, as, like other bad examples, it soon finds imitators. Diseased chickens should never be put up. The food should be ground oats, and may either be put up in a trough or on a flat board running along the front of the coop. It may be mixed with water and milk the latter is the better. It should be well soaked, forming a pulp a3 loose as can be, provided it does not run off the board. They must be well fed three or four times a day, the first time as soon after daybreak as may be possible or convenient, and then at intervals of four hours. Each meal should be a3 much as they can eat up clean, and no more. When they have done feeding, the board should be wiped and some gravel spread. It causes them to feed and thrive. After a fortnight of this treatment you will have good, fat fowls. If, however, there are but five or six to be fatted, they must not have as much room as though there were a dozen. Nothing is easier than to allow them the proper space, as it is only necessary to have two or three pieces of wood to pass between the bars and form a partition. This may also servo when fowls are up at differ ent degrees of fatness. This requires attention, or fowls will not keep fat and healthy. As soon as the fowl is suf ficiently fatted it must be killed; other wise it will not get fatter, but will lose flesh. If fowls are intended for the mar ket of course they are or may be fatted at once; but if for home consumption it is better to put them up at such inter vals as will suit the time when they will be required for the table. "When the time arrives for killing, whether they are meant for market or otherwise, they should be fasted without food or water for twelve or fifteen hours. This enables them to keep for some time after being killed, even' in hot weather. Journal of Chemistry. Potato Planting. As planting time approaches the ques tion again recurs whether large or small, whole or cut potatoes should be used for seed. The old-fashioned practice was to drop a medium or large-sized whole po tato in each hill. This, however, was in times when few were grown for market and the business was not managed so closely as it is at present. Then also it was considered very important that none but the largest potatoes should be used for seed. This is still urged by many, but I think without sufficient reason. It is certain that the largest potato-growers now plant cut seed and use much smaller quantities than formerly. They learned to divide seed by growing Early Rose and other high-priced varieties when seed was scarce, and finding they got large crops with little seed they have continued the practice. It is also an important saving in planting fifteen to twenty acres to use small potatoes rather than large for seed. As good a crop of Early Rose as I have known in field culture fully 200 bushels per acre was grown by planting two to three eyes in a place in hills three feet apart. The ground was rich, and every eye made a vigorous growth; the vines very nearly covering the ground. Peerless planted in the same way yielded 300 bushels per acre and the vines completely covered the ground. I did not test the policy of planting whole potatoes; but the crop need not have been any better than it was. The only disadvantage in cutting seed potatoes is in dry seasons, where the eyes are cut out with very little potato attached, the eye may dry up instead of growing. The remedy for" this is to press each piece firmly in the ground with the foot as it is dropped. Then cover about four inches with loose earth and every piece will grow. If wet, cold weather fo.lows planting, freshly-cut potatoes may rot in the ground. To prevent this, cut the seed a week before planting and roll in plaster (gypsum) to keep from drying too much. The plaster will ad here to the moist surfaces, which will harden slightly, and the gypsum in con tact with the potato will benefit the growth of the crop more than if used in any other way. Cut potatoes are often burned or scorched in the sun if dropped too long before being covered. Three or four hours' exposure in a cloudless May or June day is sufficient to destroy the crop. Probably the sun and wind evaporate so much moisture from the cut potato that not enough is left to furnish moisture to start the eyes. This is a matter of some importance where potatoes are planted in large auantities and covered by horse power. Some farmers in my neighbor hood have lost one to three acres by leav ing potatoes uncovered too long, and their experience may be valuable to others. Country Gentltman. The author of 44 When this old hat was new" was unquestionably a verse-a-tile genius. USEFUL AJiD SUGGESTIVE. The Gardener' Monthly says: If large fruit is wanted, thinning assists. Straw berries are increased in size by watering in a dry time. Fruit trees should be al lowed to bear only according to their strength. If a transplanted tree grows freely it may bear a few fruits but bear in mind growth and great fruitfulness are antagonistic processes. Tapioca Cream. Three tablespoon fuls of tapioca, one quart of milk, yolks of three eggs, one cup of sugar, salt, one whole egg, vanilla. Scald the milk; add the iapioca when the tiiilk is vef y hot. Let it boil gently for half an hour; add salt; beat the eggs thoroughly; thin them with about a quarter teacup of cold milk. Add sugar, and beat it well. Then pour into the boiling milk the tapioca. Flavor when cold, and put on ice. Buanc de Vkau. A brisket of veal, yolks of two hard-boiled eggs, one cup of milk, flour, butter, salt, pepper. Cut the veal in pieces; boil them at least one hour. Make a gravy of the water in which it is cooked; thicken it with a lit tle flour (made smooth in a small quan tity of Water). Add the boiled yolks of the eggs mashed fine, a little butter, and the milk. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stew gently until tender. To be eaten hot' In the cultivation of garden crops "the hoe and rake ' should be continually at work. Weeds should be taken in hand before they are barely out of the seed leaf, and one-half the usual labor of veg etable gardenine will be avoided. Hoe ing or earthing ud of most trarden crons is of immense advantage in nearly every case, une would suppose that in our hot climate flat culture would be much more beneficial; but a fair trial, say on every other row ot a bed of cabbages, will show a great difference in favor of the eartbed-up plants. Western Rural. dweet-Scented rxowERg. A corre spondent of the London Gardener's Maga zine says : Being engaged in laying out and planting new grounds and "a pleas ure garden around a gentleman's resi dence, I was asked to plant as many sweet-scented flowers as possible. I had to ransack my memory for the materials to enable me to do as desired On cogi tating over flowers and their odors I was at once struck by finding that the greatest numbers of sweet-scented flow ers are white, and out of all proportion to the sweet-scented kinds in other colors; yellow comes next; reds and blues are somewhat on a par, and their various shades follow the types, but the nearer they approach to white the more they are scented. The Care of Lawns. In response to the inquiries of a cor respondent, the Country Gentleman-gives the following directions for the prepara tion of a lawn and keeping it in order : If the surface is rough, there are two ways for making it smooth and even. The first is by breaking up the whole ground, working and reworking till fine and mellow, and reseeding or returfing. If the ground is reseeded, sow at the rate of at least two bushels of grass seed per acre, and roll or brush it "in. Red-top, white clover and Kentucky blue grass will give a good green carpet. If re turfed, make the bare surface perfectly even and level; cut the turf from an old, even pasture, with straight edges, by means of a stretched line, and then in vert the pieces or blocks on a broad board, and scrape the earth side perfect ly even by means of a sharp hoe. They will thus form an even surface when laid, and rolling will make the whole p.s smooth as a floor. The second mode of making an ever surface is to apply sand or fine sandy loam to the surface, and rake it level, by which it will fill up all hollows or depressions, and the grass will grow through the sand. This is well adapted to lawns which have but slight inequalities of surface. If the defect consists in the grass being too thin or sparse on the lawn the whole surface may be loosened with a sharp steel rake (or a fine sharp harrow on a larger scale) and grass seed sown as al ready directed; and its germination and growth will be greatly assisted if the whole surface is dressed with fine com post before sowing and raking. In some instances a better seeding will be effected by breaking up, as already described. If the lawn is defective trom the growth of coarse grass or weeds there are two modes of treatment. One is to pull up all the wiedi immediately after a long rain, when the ground is soft, or to cut them out with a spud ; and the other is to summer-fallow the whole ground for one season, keeping the'sur face stirred and clean all the time, which will kill nearly all weeds. This is to be resorted to only in case the lawn is full of weeds and in a rather desperate con dition to warrant it. To keep a lawn in good condition apply a top-dressing of some fertil izer late in autumn, spreading it per fectly even. Coarse manure is ob jectionable for two reasons, name ly: its repulsive character all win ter whenever the ground is bare of snow and the liability to scatter foul seed in this way. But if nothing better can be had be careful to spread it perfectly even and not leave it in lumps, as well as to rake off all the fibrous material left on the ground early in spring. Finely pulverized compost answers well, or a compost made of guano or of hen ma nure. The latter may be undiluted, pro vided it is in fine powder, or it may be made into a fine compost with road dust. On some soils superphosphate answers well, on others it has no effect. The manure or composts may be applied in autumn, the more concentrated fertilizers early in spring. The surface having been already made pertectiy even will require no more roil ing than is given to it by the lawn-mowers. "When the whole lawn is not more than an acre or so it may be kept cut short in perfect condition by means of a hand machine and at trifling expense. In early summer, when the grass grows rap idly, it should be cut as often as every five days; later in the season not so often. This will enable you always to 41 tread on velvet." Buy Small Trees. The average American is in a great hurry to realize on his investments. If he orders a few garden seeds in January he is anxious to have them set immedi ately; and if he forwards six cents for a copy of seme paper which contains a story of which he has read or heard he docs not forget to request the publisher to send it 44 by return mail." Patience which takes the form of auiet waiting is a virtue of which he seems to be wholly ignorant. He cannot wait the progress of events, but must constantly hurry and fret in order to make nature move a little faster than her wonted pace. This tendency crops out very plainly when he purchases trees. He finds them described in the catalogue as 44 second class," "medium," 44 first-class" and 44 ex tra." The difference in these classes is principally, if not wholly, in the size and height of the trees. The larger the tree the higher the price but the farmer 44 don't care anything about that." He wants "good trees or none," and gives his orders for those of extra size and which are four or five years old. In doing this he thinks he is acting wisely, but the nurseryman knows better, and the farm er will find before long that, with equal care, the small trees will grow faster and (if a fruit tree) come into bearing condition sooner than the large ones. In half a dozen years the tree that was small when planted will be larger and finer than the other. The reason for this is obvious. The larger the tree the larger the roots which il has, and the larger the roots the less fibers there will be upon them. A tree that has plenty of fibrous roots will grow readily if proper care is used in transplanting; but no amount of skill can coax a tree to live and flourish which is destitute of these littie fibers. The roots of large trees are all more or less mutilated in the process of taking up, while the small trees sustain little injury from this source. Dealers in trees assert that experienced men buy small, thrifty trees, while those who are just starting are anxious for the largest ones to be had. lnosewno are to set irees tn minir atnrtn will tin well to learn IUV. from the experience of those who, at d- a m - 1 considerable loss 10 memsejves, nave WneUotorl fiof email irfoa am tVif ones to bhy. 2Y".

"Without giving any recipes for making soap, I wish to tell all the hard-worked farmers' wives how much labor they may save by not Using such vast quantities of this article. For ne'arly five years I have used soap oh'y fCr washing clothes, ln all that time I have not used one pound of soap for washing dishes and other kitchen purposes. My family has ranged from three to twenty-five. I have used cistern water, limestone water as hard as possible and hard water composed of other ingredients betides lithe, and I find with all these my plan works equally well. It is this: Have your water quite hot and add a very little milk to it. This softeus the water, gives the dishes a fine gloss and preserves the hands ; it removes the grease, even that from beef, and yet no grease is ever found floating on the water, as When soap lsitsed. The stone vessels I always set ln the stove with a little water in them when the victuals are taken from them; thus they are hot when I am ready to wash them and the grease is easily removed. Just try my plan, you who toil day af ter day every spring to make that barrel of soap, and let us hear how it succeeds with you. I like the great barrel of soap on washing day, but am glad to be able to disoense with its aid on all other oc casions. 1 find that my tinware keeps bright longer when cleansed in tins way than bv using soap or by scouring. The habit so many of us have acquired of scouring tins is a wasteful policy; tne present stvle of tinware will not bear it The tin is soon scrubbed away and a vessel that is fit for nothing lelt on our hands, but, if washed in the way I have described, the tin is preserved and is ai ways bright and clean.

Dr. R. V. 1'iEKcs, HuiVulo. N. Y.: Dear Sir Your medicines, Golden Medi cal Discovery, Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, have proved of the greatest service to me. Six months ago no one thought that I could possibly live long. I had a complication of diseases scrofula, manifesting itself in eruptions and great blotches on my head that made such sores that I could not have my hair combed without causing me much suffering; also causing swollen glands, ton sils enlarged, enlarged or 44 thick neck," and large and numerous boils. I also suffered from a terrible Chronic Catarrh, and in fact I was so diseased that life was a burden to me. I had tried many doctors with no bene fit. I finally procured one-half dozen bottles of your (Jolden Medical Discovery and one dozen Sage's Catarrh Remedy and com menced their use. At first I was badly dis couraged, but after taking four bottles of the Discovery I began to improve, and when I had taken the remaining I was veil. In addition to the use of Discovery I applied a solution of Iodine to the Goitre, or thick neck, as you advise in pamphlet wrapping, and it entirely disappeared. Your Discovery is certainly the most wonderful blood medi cine ever invented. I thank God and you, from the depths of my heart, for the great good it has done me. Very gratefully, Miis. L. CIIAFFEE. Most medicines which are advertised as blood purifiers and liver medicines contain either mercury in some form or potassium and iodine variously combined. All of these agents have strong tendency to break down the blood corpuscles and debilitate and oth erwise permanently injure the human sys tem, and should therefore be discarded. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, on the other hand, being composed of the fluid ex tracts of native plants, barks and roots, will ln no case produce injury, Its effects being strengthening and curative only. Sarsapa rilla, which used to enjoy quite a reputation as a blood purifier, is a remedy of thirty years ago and may well give place, as it is doing, to the more positive and valuable vegetable alteratives which later medical in vestigation and discovery have brought to light. In Scrofula, or King's Evil, White Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, "Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammation, Mercurial affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin and Sore Eyes, as in all other blood diseases, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has: shown its great re medial powers, curing the most obstinate and intractable cases. Sold by all dealers in medicines. Coax and flour are staple articles; but not more so than Johnson' Anodyne Lini ment, where known. It is good for children or adults, for any internal soreness of the chest or bowels, and the best Liniment pre pared, under whatever name. The all-gone feeling which people some times speak of is eaused by want of proper action of the liver and heart. These may be assisted, and the bowels regulated, by J'ar lomf 1'vryative l'UU iu small doses. Aeronautic. Lucy nooper say3 in one of her Paris letters, in speaking of the disastrous as cent of the balloon Zenith : I had quite an interesting conversation with M. Tissan dier, who, though sorely depressed by the dreadful fate of his comrades, is in no physical respect the worse for his perilous expedition. A sensation of heaviness in the head and a general debility are the oily effects remaining so far as his health is concerned. He is a quiet, modest gen tleman, and seemed rather oppressed by the universal interest which his adventures have excited. It is reported he is the only one of the three who ate nothing before undertaking the ascension, but the Secre tary of the Aeronautic Society assured me that M. Spinelli's breakfast consisted merely of a cup of soup, a bit of bread and a glass of light claret; so that the question of food had nothing to do with his fate. M. Tissandier is not only the editor of the scientific periodical entitled La Nature but he is a practical aeronaut, he and his brother having been charged with the task of managing the balloon expresses that went to and from Paris during the siege. The Aeronautic Society, which, as its name indicates, is devoted wholly to the investigation of the question of aerial nav igation, receives no support from the Gov ernment, but it has been acknowledged and is now protected by the academy and the institute. It is not very sumptuously housed, its present quarters being merely a back room in a house on the Rue La fayette. In this room are collected to gether all sorts of quecr machines, the most imposing of which is an enormous construction, with wide, bat-like, outspread wings and a wonderful conglomeration in the midst wherein or whereon the passen ger is to sit to maneuver the wings afore said. Of course the whole structure is a failure but it is extremely ingenious. A model of a flying-machine which really can and did and does fly was exhibited to me. It looked not unlike a dragon-fly on an exaggerated scale. The motive power appeared to be a thick cord formed of loose, separate filaments of india-rubber, which cord is to b wound up or relaxed at pleasure by means of a key, and which thus moves the wings of the machine. The Secretary assured me that it coula flv with a velocity of thirty feet per second.
