Down the Road.
,A lusty tramp, one summer's day
The sun was glaring fiercely down
Trudged on along the dusty way
That led toward the newest town.
No friendly tree Mb welcome shade
Athwart his weary pathway cast;
2o babbling brooklet leaped and played
Along the roadside as he passed.
"Is there no shady ppot," he cried,
"At hand?" to one who by him strode,
"Oh! yes," the other one replied
"A little further down the road."
Ah! well! we all are tramps at best;
"We stagger 'neath life's dally load.
Yet on wo press and hope for rest,
'A little further down the ..road."

A Romance.
On a little frequented street, though
in the immediate vicinity of the Es
planade, the boulevard, and Isaac's
Place, there stands.a gloomy-looking
building, large, but of a severe style
of architecture, and painted in som
bre oolors. This lathe Leuchtenberg
Palace, a name suggestive of a dark
page in the history of the imperial
family of Kusaia. Many of the Chron
icle's readers will yet remember the
romantio story of the marriage ofCzar
Nicholas' favorite daughter to a dash
ing young German officer. The Duke
of Leuchtenberg was good-looking,
but comparatively poor and obscure,
and it Ib saidthe wayward princess
made the first advance, and even that
the stern emperor consented to the
marriage only to avoid ecandal At any
rate, romance and royalty did not
Beem to agree well, and the union
turned out badly. The Duchess tired
of her former idol, a gay and dashing,
but at the same time scholarly and
thoroughly honorable German, and
began to form liaisons, the most noto
rious of whioh was with a Count
Strogonoff. After a life of mortified
seclusion and constant study the duke
died, refusing to recognize on his
death-bed the last children born to
the princess. Immediately after bis
demise the latter was forced to marry
Strogonoff, and was banished from
.Russia. She took up her abode in
Paris, where she died a fewyearsago.
The children of this union have been
Bomewhat under a cloud, and several
matohes proposed for the very accom
plished daughter were broken off for
some unexplained reasons. The old
est son the young Duke of Leuoh-
tenberg haB now joined the army of
the Danube, and may accomplish
something in the field that will place
a renewed luster around his wronged
father's name, ,ud bridge the gulf
that separated him and bis sister from
the remainder of hid family.
Caught In Ills Own Trap.
Two ministers of the gospel were
conversing toge there on extemporan
eous preaching.
Well,' said the old divine, waxing
warm, 'you are ruining yourself by
writing your sermons, and reading
them off. Your congregation cannot
become interested in your preaohlng,
and if you were called upon unexpec
tedly to preach, unless you could get
hold of an old sermon you would be
completely oonfused.'
The young divine used all his elo
quence but In vain to convince the
old gentleman that the written serm
on expressed his own thoughts and
feelings, and if called upon he could
preach extemporaneously.
As we are of the same faith,' said
the young minister, 'suppose you try
me next Sabbath morning. On as
cending the pulpit, you can hand me
a text from any part of the Bible, and
I will convince you that I can preach
without looking at the text before I
stand up. Likewise, I must be allow
ed the same privilege with you, and
Bee who will make the best of it.'
The idea seemed to delight the old
gentleman, and it was immediately
agreed upon.
The following Sabbath, on mount
ing the pulpit, his senior brother
Landed him a slip on which was writ
ten : 'And the Ass opened his mouth
and apake,' from whioh he preached a
glorious sermon, chaining the atten
tion of his hearers, and charming his
old friend with his eloquence.
In the afternoon, the young broth
er, who was sitting below the pulpit,
handed his slip. After rising and
opening the Bible, the old man look
ed sadly around, and read : 'Am I
not thine Ass?'
Pausing a few moments, he ran his
fingers through his hair, straightened
his collar, blew his nose and read
aloud, "Am I not thine Ass?' An
other pause, in which a deadly silence
xeigned, After reading a third time,
Am I not thine Ass? he looked over
the pulpit at his friend, and in a dole
ful' voice said: kI think lam, brother.1

Done Enough.
A Revolutionary soldier was run
ning for congress, and his opponent
was a young man, who had never
been to the wars, and it was the cus
tom of the old Revolutioner to tell of
the hardships he had endured. He
said :"
'Fellow-cltizena : I have fought and
bled for my country. I helped to
whip the British and the Indians. I
have slept on the field of battle, with
no other covering than the canopy of
heaven. I have walked over the fro
zen ground till every footstep was
marked with blood '
Just about this time one of the sov
ereigns, who had become greatly In
interested in thetnleof sufferings, wi
ped the tears from ills eyes with the
extremity of his coat tall, and Inter
rupted him with :
'Did you say you had fought the
British and the Injuns?'
Yes, sir.'
'Did you say you slept on the
ground, while serving your country,
without any kiver ?'
I did.
'Did you say j'our feet kivered the
ground you walked over with blood?'
'I did, 'said thespeaker, exultingly.
'Well, then, said the sovereign, as
he gave a sigh of tearful emotiou, 'I
guess I'll vote for t'other fellow ; for
I'll be blamed if you aintdone enough
for your country.'

a case of scandalous character, in
which her husband filled the unenvi

Nevada Paper.
Corn starch is manufactured by
steeping the corn in water, at a tem
perature of from 70 to 140 F., for
about a week, changing the water at
least once in twentjr-four hours. A
certain amoutof acid fermentation Is
thus produced, causing the starch and
refuse of the corn to be easily separa
ted afterwards. The swollen corn is
ground to a ourrent of clear, soft wa
ter, and the pulp passed through
sieves with the water into vats. In
these the starch gradually settles to
the bottom, the clear water is then
run off by a tap, and the starch gath
ered and dried in a proper apartment
for the purpose. ,

Money in SwraKt Corn. An Ohio
farmer grows overoOO acres is this crop
annually. The drying-houses em ploy
over fifty persons. The fresh ears are
steamed five minutes to set the milk,
the grain is then cut off rapidly with
cutters having concave faces; then
spread on perforated zinc tables, and
heat applied for four or five hours
from long furnaces, stirring constant
ly ; then packed in barrels of three
bushels eacli for shipment. Great care
is required to have the corn of the
right age, and to have it dried enough
to keep well. Four bushels of corn on
thecob makeonedried the wholesalo
price of which ia $20 to $22 per barrel.
Fifty bushels of corn per acre, 500
acres would yield 25,000 bushels and
give over 2,000 barrels of dried corn,
which, at $20 per barrel, would be
$40,000.
Thumps in Young Pigs. "W.B.,"
Columbus, Ga., sends to the American
Agriculturist the following method
for treating young rJigs for the thumps,
which he has found successful. One
pig of a Utter four weeks old was at
tacked first. Subsequently another of
the same litter was similarly affected.
As I killed a joung pig in trying to
force medicine down its throat, I
thought it prudent to try another way.
I began to feed my sucking pigs at
three weeks old, and as one or two,
won't eat alone, I gave the whole lit
ter a dose each, (in as little food as
possible, to insure their getting all the
medicine,) of castor oil, once n day for
a week, with a dose'.of copperas every
third day, and a little sulphur once or
twice. In a week the two sick pigs
were entirely cured, and the whole
litter improved by the treatment. If
dust in the pen and yards ia prevented,
there will not be many cases of
thumps.
The Care of Geraniums, I. The
geraniums which have lost their foli
age most probably need repotting.
Shake offall the earth from the roots,
and set theui in soil whioh you have
prepared ; press the fresh earth
around the plants, and give them a
little water.keeping them in the shade
for a week. Cut them back if they
are well grown. They do not require
to be kept very warm, only so they
will not freeze. The flowering maple
must be taken out of its pot and the
roots washed. Scrub the pot, and fill
it with new earth, in which reset the
plant. Wash slugs off with whale oil
soap, and if this does not prove uffect
ual, smoke the plant with tobacco by
putting tobacco in a saucer with a live
coal on it, and holding the plant over
the fume3.
The Care of Geraniums. II. If
yourgeraniums are unhealthy.change
the earth ; sod soil should be used ;
mix it on top with stable manure and
a little charcoal pulverized ; place the
pots in a good sunny place ; water ev
ery other day ; once a week dig up
the soil, so it will not become hard or
baked.
Apple Worm. How to keep this
inseot in check and save the apple
crop from its ravages is a question
anxiously asked by every intelligent
apple raiser. The following means, if
adopted by all apple growers, and
faithfully and persistently carried out,
would largely reduce their numbers
and injuries. First, all worm-falls
should be gathered up and destroyed
as often as once eaoh day. A drove of
hogs kept in the orchard will general
ly do this work in an excellent man
ner. And It is claimed by some that
hogs thus treated never have the chol
era ; of the truth of this, however, I
do not know. Second, old clothes
hung In the crotches of the trees will
be ohosen by tho larv:e as hiding
places. They should bo examined
every week or two, and all tho larvie
killed. A band of hay wound two or
three timesaround the trunk of the
tree will catch the most of them as
they ascend the tree. These, like the
clothes above mentioned, should be
occasionally examined and the larvaj
concealed under them destroyed. All
barrels, boxes, etc, in which apples
have been kept through the winter
should have a thorough examination
In the spring, and all cocoons with
their contents which may generally
be found in such situations be de
stroyed. The importance of this step
will be understood when it Is known
that more of the females that lay the
eggs for the first brood come from the
cellars and fruit-houses where fruit
has been stored than from all other
sources. I should have said the
oodling moth preys on the pear as w'ell
as the apple. Ohio Farmer.
New Cure for Wounds. As soon
as a wound is inflicted get alittle stick
a knife or file-handle will do and
commence to tap gently ou-the wound.
Do not stop for the hurt, but continue
until it bleeds freely and becomes per
fectly numb. When this point is
reaohed you are safe all that is neces
sary is to protect it from the dirt. Do
not stop short of tho bleeding and the
numbness, and do not on any account
close tho opening with plaster. Noth
ing more than a little cerate on a clean
cloth Is necessary. We have
used and seen this used on all kinds of
simple punotures for 30 years, and
never knew a single instance of a
wound becoming inflamed or sore af
ter treatment as above. Among other
cases : A coal rake tooth going entir
ly through thelfoot, a rusty darning
needle through the foot, a bad bite by
sucking pig, severalinstancesof file
shanks through the hands, and num
berless cases of rusty nails, awls, etc.,
but we never knew a failure of this
treatment. Exchange.
Breakfast Eelish. Cut into
small pieces one-quarter of a pound of
cheese ; place in a spider with a small
piece of butter ; pour over it one cup
of milk and one egg well beaten ; sea
son high with salt and pepper.
Another Use for Mustard. The
lives of many of us are nothing else
than instances of slow poisoning.
What with unwholesome food and
adulterated drink It Is really a won
der of wonders that we live so long.
But cases in which people perish by
a single fatal draught are few and far
between. They may, however, ocour
in connection with any of us, and it
is well to be prepared. Suppose, then
one should swallow poison, what
should he do? Fly to the mustard
pot. It may save his life. A table
spoonful of ordinary mustard, mixed
In a wineglassful of water, will sel
dom fail to produce sickness.
In the mustard pot,' saj's a distin
guished writer on food, 'we have one
of the safest and swiftest of emetics.'
This, surely, is a fact worth know
ing. Late-Hatched Chickens.
Too little attention is paid each sea
son to the chickens hatched late in
the season, nearly every breeder sup
posing that they will not amount to
much, and that the care and atten
tion bestowed on them is at best but
poor paj.
Nearly all of the Asiatic breeds will
do well If hatched as late as Septem
ber, as their heavy feathering serves
in a great measure to protect them
from the cold. One pceoaution is nec
eesary, and that is to keep them out
of the Autumn rains. Half-fledged
chickens are very easily damaged by
allowing them to get soaking wet in
a cold rain, and are put back very
much in their growth, even if they
are not killed by roup or catarrh by
the exposure.
A noticeable feature in late-haUhed
Asiatics is that they are generally
finer in color and shorter in the legs,
and that they are largely pullets.
In nine cases out of ten the early
hatched chicks will be largely cocker
els, and many of these will be coarse
and leggy, while later in the season
the reverse will be the case.
Sometimes the cold weather will
check their growth completely, un
less a very warm house is provided ;
but even then they will make large
chicks if generously fed through the
winter, for as soon as the warm days
of spring come they will, if in good
condition and they ought to be fat
commence growing rapidly and soon
rival the early-hatched birde. These
late-hatched pullets are often very
serviceable, as the3' usually commence
laying in April, when the early ones
are all in a clucking mood, and will
soon pay for the care that has been
taken of them. Of oourse It will not
pay farmers to take thi3 extra care
with common fowls, or those designed
for market ; hut the fancier who can
find ready sale for eggs in April and
May is sorely tempted to let them go,
and if he can make use of eggs laid
late in June and July, and even Au
gust, he can well afford a generous
supply of food and a little extra care.
These late-hatched chicks should
have all the corn they can eat as late
at night as they can see to eat, and
they may even be fed by lamplight;
we have done it more than once and
a meal of soft food at daylight in the
morning.
During tho daytime, if.food is left
where they can have free access to it,
all the better. Every grain of food
taken which Is not actually needed
for the growth of the fowl produces
fat, and this accumulation of fat ren
ders them all the more fit for a suc
cessful wintering. A chicken that is
well fed and well houBed is far less li
able to disease than one that is half
starved and that is left out in the cold
and storm.
During tho severe cold weather
they will not grow any, and many
are thereby deceived, thinking such
chickens are stunted and will never
grow any larger; but such is not the
case, for, as soon as tho grass starts in
the spring they will commence to
grow, and that very rapidly, and will
soon "show their keeping" and make
valuable fowls. Western Rural.
