It was a i-aw, mi'tv evening in early

take a car, though lie had forgotten his

in his business, with .erple;ng cares
in addition, not of a linsines nature,
made the sharp air a relief to him, and
the thought of a .slufly car was repol
lant. Turning into Fifth avenue, at
length, a furious blast of wind and sleet
nearly blinded him for a moment, anil
lie -tumbled against a child, coining
lmrniii.r nas . when the sound of su;i- !
pre-'-ed sobs fell on his car, and he
half stopped, with a:i impatient excla

Whv don't you run home? This is no

looked at her. to see if he had gues.sed
correctly. But the honest blue eyes
that looked up to him frankly asked
nulling.
Hugh Merrick had a weakness for
blue ce-!. and he felt rebuked when she
niisweied:

"And I'll get turne I out of my place,

Hugh Merrick's eyes were fixed on

in bonnets, as well as in eyes; but there
was something m this uaintj mu v

the one witness of his lunacv. The
uuie gin, Mollie Burke, hastened back
to the milliner: but her heart failed her
as she came in sight of the forewoman's
sharp countenance, a very Miss Kwas
for acidity. She handed up tho en
velope, without a word.
."Where's the bill, child?1'
"She didn't send any," faltered Mol
he. 'The forewoman uttered an impatient
exclamation, "Some people are the
carelessest! ' Then, turning to the
book-keeer: "Miss Green, vou'll have
to make out a new bill and. send it, re
ceipted, to Miss Darcy."
Mollio heard the name, and wished
she could have told her benefactor,
who, perhaps, might know the lady.
Meanwhile. Mr. Merrick had locked his
library door, placed the bonnet upon
his table, and established himself in his
easy-chair directly in front of it. His
eyes were fixed on his purchase, but his
thoughts were a mile away. Yes, it
was just about a mile from his house to
the home of Agnes; aud it was two
weeks since he had ascended that lon
months ago he had thought himself the
happiest man that ever walked the
streets of New York. The most beau-
tiful woman in the world, the only per- j
feet one, foci ingeu to him. And now a
few hasty, angry words had parted
them fmever. What had they quar
ro'ert about? He could scarcely re
in 'in Dor.
But he had been jealous, and she had ,
roieiitod it. She had said she would
never a. e bin again, and he must abide
by her word. With his steady gray
ees lixed sternl.' on the coquettish
bonnet, he remained for netrly an hour
lost ::i reverie, until his lister called
him to supper. Then he cimc out of
the library, locking the (ioor behind
him.
' What have you got loikcd up in

who presided over his baclrlor estab
lishm nt.
"Oh! my papci'3 are lving all about,
and I don't want tilings dtstirbed," re-
l,,"i!1 Mr- Mo. r,c.
Tho next day Mr. Mcrricc locked up

but the following morning he Nas called

parture, his sister Kthcl, entering thu
room, with a gay sons on her lips,
stopped short in astonishment, aud the
tune died abruptly.
" A lady's bonnet! Hugh Merrick!
Agnes Darcy was quite right to break
o!f the engagement. Where did tho
wretch get it?"
Approachinr the table, she lifted tlio
damaged article aud scrutinized it care
fully. " Well, I never! Can it be Iter bon

buckle that sho wore all last winter.
The mystery grows! How did Hugh
get pos'e-aion of this?"
At the very lime that Ethel Merrick
was nu..liiiL'- her brain over Mis D.ir- '

Washing Fhuiuids.

said before, we proceed to give some
SI,uple rules for this part of the wash-
mir.
In the first place, blankets do not
need washing often. They are used
between tho upper sheet and the bed
spread, and jf properly handled need
not be soiled for a long lime. Occa
sionally blankets should be pinned
evonlv on the clothes-line to be well
aired'and freshened. Always cho.se a
bright, fair day for this work in a
clean, grassy yaid, so that no dii'-t will
lodge on them. A tolerably windy day
is desirable, for it will whip out the
dust and lint that may have settled in
tliem through constant use.
When blankets really need washing,
the first step is to see that there is
plentv of b ul'ng wnler on hand. Se
leet two of tho lariro-.t tubs, and fill
one half full of boiling water, leaving
plenty more boil ng. for rinsing. Dis-
solve aud pour into the first tub two
tablespoonftils of powdered borax and
sulliciunt so;p to make a good lather.

There are many theories on the sub
ject of washing woolens. Some advise
washing in cold water; some soaking
all night in cold water. For the pur
poso of experimenting, wo have tried
manv ways on old flannel, but have the
best'rcsults from the rules here given.
Professor Youmans says: "Woolen
fabrics, bv compression and friction,
will mat and lock together; but cotton
and linen libers, having no such asperi
ties of surface, aro incapable of close
mechanical adherence. The fetting,
fulling and shrinking of woolen aro
caused by the binding together of thxj
ultimate "filaments. This shows the im
policy of excessive nibbing in washing
wooien iaorics. or oi lauuigmg mora
from hot to cold flrater, as the contrac
tion it causes is essentially a fulling
process. The best experience seems to
indicate that woolens should never be
put into cold water, but always into
warm, and if changed from water to
water, they should always go from hot
to hotter. In cleansing delaines for
printing, they arc placed first in water
at one hundred degrees or one hundred
and twenty degrees, aud then they ara
treated eight or ten times with watei
ten degrees hotter in each change." Bj
that process they never shrink. Mrs.

Rotation ef Crop.

succeed better when thus grown and
that he cannot grow the ame crop
evnrv ve-ir on the same irround. with
profit. There is a good reason for this.
It is"Bccau5o tho nat ireef each of the;0

seems to rcat niu sou, ui;it ciuti i
actually leaves the soil better than it
was before, besides adding to it in the
shape of roots, stems and leaves, a large
quantity of valuable pltnt food for the
corn which follows it; that the -culture
of tho corn kills a vast quant. ty of
weeds and cleans the ground, and pre
pares it for the oats anil u heat; that
after the oats have been grown the so'd
has given up to that crop all the
strength it possessed, and that it then
rcqtiiic help to restore it. This :s
given by the manure and fertilizers
used to prepare for th1 wheat or rye
and the clover aid gras- a'ter it, anil
tl-at by th's trettni'Mit one can goon
year after year, for a whole life-tim
growing crops and then leav. his farm
still fertile and useful for his children,
who may do the sam to be followed
hgain by tlieir children.
This method of culture is called tho
rotat'on of croj)3. and the u-ual rota
tion consists of the four crops men
tioned, viz.: clover and grass, corn,
oats and wheat. This is called the four
course system. Some farmers add oth
er crops, ami so lenguieu me course
with great benefit to the soil; because
in the four course system there is too
much grain and too little fodder for
feeding cattle and making manure,
without which good crops cannot bo
grown. There are also not enough of
tho renovating crors. as thoe are
called, in which either the soil is ma
nured or rested, and restore I, or in fact
renewed in strength and power to pro
duce the other crops which take more
from the soil, and are therefore called
exhaustive. For the principle at the
bottom of this S3'stem of rotation is
chiefly this: that the farmer miM fol
low an exhaustive crop with a renovat
ing one; that is one that is hard or
dillicult to grow with one that is easy,
and so give the soil an opportunity to
recover before its strength is taxed too
much.
Much injury has been done to many
farms by an unwise neglect of th s pre
caution. and crops of wheat and corn
have been grown year attor jear, until
the soil has been inado unable to pro
duce enough to pay the fanner for his
labor, or to support him aud his family
with comfort. It is in this way that
farms have been vorn out. and people
have been forced to go further wct to
get new land, fiat the same wasteful
practice mav be followed. Now, thatthe
West is becoming filled up, and tho
best lands are occupied, this can no
longer be done, and tanner-are obliged
to Follow a more skillful practice, and
are forced to study more carefully the
nature of their business, that they may
make their farms more productive.
Tim feeilinirof eattlc and sheep is the

and .he growing of feeding crops there
fore needs to be made a special study
by the oung farmer. A rotation then
which can be made to include the largest
nutnbei'4f feeding crops is the bet. A
seven course rotation is sometimes prac
ticed in which clover and grass aro
grown one year for hay and a second
year for pasture, followed by corn, oats,
roots (either turnips or mangels) bar
ley, clover for hay. and wheat on the
clover sod. followed by grass. This ro
tation has many advantages. It has
two cultivated or cleaning crops, corn
and roots; two sods plowed under, and
four feeding crops, viz., corn, roots and
two hav crops. Where it can bo fol-

givc-i the girls an agreeable opportunity
of adding to the income of the farm and
to their own resources by making but

boys which is not so laborious as the
constant raising of grain. When the
rotation is chosen, the farm is divided
into fields to suit the course, five for the
four course, in which there are two in
grass at the same time; and eight for

.Milk Tor Iho Sick.
Milk is a perfect food, and the only
perfect food that exists. It conta ns
all the elements that enter into the
human bods'. Should a man attempt to
live on bread alone, or flesh alone, or
fat. or vegetables, ho would sooner or
later starve, through lack in these arti
cles of diet of some one or more of tho
propel ties that are necessary to the uu
triment of tho human body. But on
milk alone most persons can live, thrive
and grow. .Milk has a value, beyond
tho period of infancy, much greater
than is generally thought.
T.io old notion and practice was to
starve a fever. The result was that the
patient was starved, and had no strength
to rally when the fever was subdued.
Fever patients are now carefully fed,
advantage being taken of tho daily
"remissions" that is, the hours of
low temperature and the digestive
power of the stomach being aided by
pepsin. The bland and nourishing
properties of milk make it the main
lood for such patients. It is equally
tho best food in many cases where tho
digestion has been impaired through
overtaxing of the nervous system.
Some; patients, however, have found
that ifproduced "biliousness," as they
expressed it. But this has been largely
due to using it as a drink between
meals, instead of as the principal part
of the food at meals. It has thus only
increased the stomach's burden. Still,
very weak stomachs havo been unable
to bear it even as an article of food, es
pecially in winter. The difficulty is
that the cold temperature of the milk
has stiil further reduced the impaired
vitality of the stomach. In such cases,
let the person use it warm sipping it
as hot as it can be borne. This heat
furnishes just the stimulus needed for
the process of digestion.
An exclusively milk diet, with bread
or boiled rice, for a few da3s, will often
help a person speedily through a cold,
or enable him to rally from a temporary
attack of indigestion. louUCs Com
panion. Table Com.
With frequent plantings through tho
season, a dish of boiled green com can
be on the table daily," after the first
mess, until late in October. As it is
deservedly regarded to be one of the
most desirable things that can be en
joyed, there is no reason why even peo
ple with a small nlot of land should not
indulge in it. There is now an early
variety of sugar corn for the tirst plant
ing that wc have found to be excellent.
Jt is called the Extra Early Crosby
Sugar." A single planting of this is
sufficient, to be followed by "Stoweil's
Evergreen Sugar," which is the best
variety for the general crop that we
have yet found, aud havo raised it for
at lc ist twcntv-Gve years. A planting
should take place every ten to twelve
days, and the season will require Irom
six to seven crops altogether. The first
planting can be put in now. and follow
ed at these" periods into June. These
will give a daily supply until frost iu the
latter part of October. Gtrmanlown

Fuchsias in summer. Dr. Wolcott
had a lot of fuchsias planted under the
shade of a high apple tree, and all sum
mer long they kept growing and bloom
ing better than any 1 have see.i in the
neighborhood. Next to them i auks a
lot of fuchsias planted in front of an
cast facing house on Garden street, in
a rather cool, shady place, and whore
thev were freely showered from tho
hose on Summer es'cnings. Fuchsia
gracilis and virgata bloom freely with
us in sunny exposures, and are graceful
and pretty, but as f u di-ias the smallncs
of their blossom) is a drawback to their
favor. Most of tho other fuchsias we
have tried in sunny places are not sat

The Cultivation of Ito.cs
To raise roses in perfection, it is
neeful to feed them well and place them
in the full sunlight, and not where
they will bo shaded by trec3 and
shrubs. After they have bloomed,
prnuo them closely, and alo when
they commence to leaf in the early
fcpring. The beds in which they are
planted must be made very rk.h" with
well-decomposed compost, "dujr to tho
depth of at least two leet. In making
a roie bed. lt.js a good plan to take oil
the soil for two or three fert in depth
and fill the crfvity with good ordure
well totted. Then add six inches or a
foot of very rich sod with a mixture of
sand. After the plants arc set, mulch
them with long litter from the stable.
This will keep the roots moist and
cool during the heated term, and make
a healthy growth of branches and
flowers.
After the June flowering ha3 passed,
all monthly ro-es should be severely
pruned and the new growth cut back
two or three inches; alo the old
branches should be cut away. The
handsomest itowcrs always spring from
fresh growth from the roots; and to
luakc those start vigorously the knife
must be freely used. For a few weeks
your pets may seem shorn of their glo
ry, but soon they will renew tlieir
beaut- and g.ve yon plenty ot llowew;
while, if you permit the seed buds to
form, it will stop the blossoming in a
great degree. Therefore, as each roc
lades, cut it off; 6r better yet. cut it
while in its bloom.
From tho branches wliich arc pruned
new plants can be ra:sed. As a rale,
all cuttings should be taken oil" just be
low a bud or joint; and they should be
selected from yor.ng growth rather
than from the old where the bark ha3
become hardened. Try to snap the
branch. If it bends without breaking
it is too old to grow easily; but if it snaps
off at once it is in the "right condition
to strike root quickly. Leae one or
two buds above the bottom one, and
trim off two or more of the lower leaves,
as they will wilt easily, and thus injure
the cutting.
Clear sand kept very moist L the best
soil in which to strike cnttings, and
they can be placed in a pot only an
inch apart, and put up in the shade for
a few days. Warmth, an even temper
ature and moistnre are es-eatial for
root-growth. It will take from three to
four weeks to develop the roots, and
then the plants can be placed in rich
soil, with a little sand to lighten it, and
soon thev will be good, stocky plants.
