sheep raising pays better than raising

looked that way to us. We know
farmers who maintain from four to
eight dogs, and "nar3r sheep." We
suggest that they figure a little as to
profits.

THE YALLEY OP THE LITTLE XE-
JtlAIIA.
BY FANNIE COURSER.
'But who that see these lines will ever
know, or carp, that I, ft tired child, fleeing
from the city's din, once wandered on tucsu
shores."
We arose at day-break. Who would
suppose that I, who keep Buoh late
vigils at home that I, the most con
firmed morning-dreamer in the world,
could be induced to rise with tho day
king, and, as the first trembling rays
of that luminary were streaming over
"woodland and wold,' to mount my
gallant steed, and gay as a "bird on
the wing" to "fly, flyaway." The
dew-drons vet SDarkled in the mead
ows, and the flower3 on the hill-side
were rivalled only by tho peerless
gem3 of Golconda in brilliancy of
hue.
And 'twas out into the glorious air
and sunshine, and mid the song of
birds that we sallied my cousin and
I.
Once mounted, wo turned our hors
es heads in tho direction of the "Lit
tle Nemaha," and were hurried along
at an alarmlncr pace past fields of
vegetation, swaying like tho waves of
ocean with ripened and ripening
grain.
Once we stopped to view what had
been a fine field of barley, but whioh
was now ruthlessly attacked by a band
of Iittlo marauders, by name tho grass
hopper. Myriads of these formida
ble enemies were gorraaudiziug upon
the rich yellow heads, and their epl
curian taste did not seem satiated un
til tho whole field was devastated.
As these observations were taking
place my steed mi3nomered Demos
thenesbegan, from scare or freak, to
pitch and rear, and it was by sheer
accident only that I wns enabled to
keep my equilibrium upon the saddlo.
My dear companion rushing to the
rescue, seized Demosthenes' bridle,
and with a sharp cut across his neck
with her riding whip, soohsubdued
his turbulent spirit, and he hung his
great black head, looking meek as a
lamb. But I did not relish the
thought of riding upon so incorrigible
a beast, and, coward like, I proposed
a change. My poor arm, I knew, was
not equal to the strength of muscle
that might be required in case of a
second stampede, and being not an
experienced horsewoman I thought
best to trust Demosthenes to more ex
perienced hands. Accordingly we
hailed a rustic swain, who at that mo
ment happened to bo crossing a field
near by, and with his kind assistance,
by placing one foot in his largo hand,
and a hand on his equally conspicu
ous shoulder, each in turn wore again
mounted "On the steed that loved us
best," and soon were on our way.
Misroir I found perfectly docile,
and my regrets wore expressed that I
had not in the beginning rode upon
him. But "Vanity of vanities!'' he
had no oVertiiinbln-ohnniotorlotlc'
if it may be so called he was ugly.
Demosthenes more rightly called
Satan conducted himself with the
utmost propriety during the rest of the
ride. Let me say, however, in discred
it to him, that every time poor Mis
roir, by chuuee or otherwise, brushed
ugoinst him, ho pricked up his ears
and halt turning his head displayed
two rows of the most revolting look
ing teeth in existence.
But how refreshing was the Ireeze
that came from over the distant hills.
Everything in nature seemed in uni
son with our young and vigorous life.
Tho morning-glory's pretty petals
were opened to the bright sun, and
wild-roses in every variety of hue
spread out along the roadside. Tho
Robin, and-Bob White, too, made us
aware In loud notes of their presence;
and that slow-of-wing bird, the grass
hopper, was hilariously leaping from
"ear to ear," and "sheaf to sheaf."
LIttIo did it concern the progeny of
this creneration whether or not the
embryo of their race is destroyed, and
thev ate their breakfast with as much
satisfaction as if the country was ex
pecting to bo overrun with their off
spring for a thousand years. In some
places the farmers were whettiug
plow-shares preparatory for a day of
honest toil, and in others again the
men were already in the field lording
it over the yielding soil. Wo passed
many farm houses, and the door of
some of these stood open, and we
could see the good house-wife "clear
ing the morning repast away," or
busying herself with other affairs in
the neat kitchen.
Some of the most productive acres
in tho country are situated in this
beautiful valley.
Tho bridge crossing tho river waB
reached just as the sun was entering
its meridian. Wo crossed this, and
on the other side a commanding view
was obtained for some yards up and
down the little stream. To the left
was the old grist-mill. We wheeled
in that direction, and passing under
a canopy of box-elder, elm, maple
and coltonwood limbs which met on
both sides of tho road and formed an
archway, we approached at length the
dusky mill not tho "miller." The
noise of tho machinery and the water
seething and foaming over tho mill
dsftn, confused us for a moment, but
we rode into a more open space where
we could observe without having our
ears grated with any disagreeable
sound, and selecting a disirablo spot
we dismounted this time under the
friendly shade of an "elm tree and
while an accommodating lad took
caro of our horses, my cousin settled
herself with a volume of some "an
cient lore," and I, less practical,
brought to life a little black-bound,
serious-looking note book, and then,
and only at that hour, was thought
given to this little sketch.

Nature's Iteiueillal Agents.
It Is said that for every dleease that effeots
suffering humanity, nature ha provided a
remedy, and that all man has to do is to dis
cover these remedial agents and apply them
to their npprohrlate" ailments. These are
mostly found in thovegetable kingdom, and
roots, barks, herbs, grains, and other simple
and harmless ingredients are moreeffoctive
than any of the mineral poisons used so
freely by many physicians. The celebrated
Dr. Radcllir, in the Seven Seals or Golden
Wonder, has compounded a vegetable reme
dy peculiarly adapted for n wide ran go of
diseases, combining as it does the curative
properties of a great number of the most ef
fective roots, herbs and barks. For pains
and aches it has never been equaled.
