JHSTAKKN TOIL A HKJinVAYMAX.
A stalwart, but tircd-lookinsr. horsc-
juan was va i toward the village of
Mo3vUrok,at the close of a tultry after
noon last.summcr,:isf:isla.sthc jaded bay
mare he bestroded could lessen the
tedious distance. His face was hand
som, but he wore an anxious cxprcs
huii, and he itired about the country,
as he rode on, with the air of a stranger
in those parts. His dusty foet, his
pale v:sagc and the foreign cut of his
apparel, with the walcluulness of his
manner, would have led an observer
to consider hhn one wbo h:id traveled
far that day, and who was not only
from a foreign country, but laboring
miller some deep distress of mind. so
row or fear perhaps remorse.
As he climbed the hi 1 which looked
down upon the villago his face
brightened omcwhat.
Thank Heaven! there I shall lind a
few ho'irs' rest and refreshment for my
self and this exhausted beast," he mut
tered. And the mare pricked up her
ears as she saw the villago and heard
his voice, and hastened her pace, as if
she knew her rider's intention.
Cans for her well." said he
stranger Ut the hostler, as he alighted.
"I am to .-up and to sleep a few hour.;
and. at ten to-night have her ready
saddled at the door; for I am in gro it
haste to continue my journey, and must
then depart."
The hostler pr mised, and the stran
ger, after eat.ng a hearty supper, re
tired to rest.
Having well-bestowed tho mare, the
hostler thing himself down before ttie
stable d or, and, considering h" hid as
much right to rest as any other man or
beast in a fiee country, went to sleep
hiin-e!f.
Whether he had worked or drank too
mtu h that da. crtain it was that he
o'. ers cpt hss time: And wh u he ht:irt-:d
up, and hastily siddled tic niare upon
ivh'ch the .-trangor was to continu"
his wax, it was eleven o'clock, ami
pitch-dark.
As the stranircr. also, had ovcrslont
Us hour he d d not so much blame, the
host cr, but pa d h;s bill, mounted
quickly, ami rode off, making no
answer to the remark of the man that
there would be a heavy storm before
morning, as the clouds wore already
black and threatcn'ng.
Valuable information!'1 sneered the
traveler, as the marc made unusually
quick time over the road. "Couldn't
1 see for myself? Had I not been in
haste to get at the end of my journey
I should not, of course, have gone on
before lnorirng, after forty miles of
1 ravel under a summer sun. The deuce
is in m luck, to be roasted by day and
,nl drowned !v night, as tins ap
proaching storm seenis to forebode.
1 la' what a vivid flash! tho tempest is
coming sooner than 1 expected. How
fat the mare goes! A few hours have
worked wonders with her; or, perhaps,
instinct bids her soccd to escape the
tempest, if possible.''
A heavy crash of thunder just then
startled both horse and horseman tho
openinjr canuonauo ot mo elemental
batt'e which was soon to sweep furious
ly around them.
She has been over-fed, or sho is
very skittish." thought the horseman,
as he felt tho tremorof tho frightened
animal's limb", and her gait for a short
distance became irregular. Our road
lie-, through a wood lor a few miles, as 1
am told; and when the shower is on us
in full foi ce, what with the lightning,
the thunder, tho raiu and the darkness,
she may become unmanageable. Per
4 l.aj s I had bettor stayed after all. Tho
more haste the worse-speed sometimes."
Flash after Hash, peal after peal, now
followed rapidly, with blinding and
ilea ening effect upon man and beast:
and soon the wind and rain combined
with fearful power and volume as if to
distract and discomfort the benighted
horse and rider. Here and there, over
their rough road, the torn branches of
trees mcumboreu it, as n to uispuie
their passage. Twice, as the scared
bcat galloped frantically on. she stum
bled and nearly threw the cavalier, re
quiring all his efforts to recovor her
and keep the saddlo; and once a
dazzling bolt and a fearful simultaneous
clap of thunder caused the poor beast
to swerve madly aside, rear and then
-ira back in her track for a short dis
tancewhile a talL tree, cleft by the
lightning, scattered half its mighty
bulk over the spot from Tvhich tho maro
had shrunk back.
But, with steady hand and coaxing
voice, the horseman linally caused her
to return again; and, vaulting over tho
JTprostratc trunk, they resumed thoir
storniv course, wuuu uiumiu "","'
torn from tallest trees, whirled danger
ously through the dark air.
Thus, through the night, they pro
ceeded, the storm gradually abating as
the dim dawn of day approached; and,
when the cheering" sun at last broke
with merry face over tho glistening hills,
the drenched stranger was far beyond

Vliad ridden.
"Thank you for nothing," no er
claimed, mockingly saluting the sun.
"The world is full of such rncnus, who
o-ivc their aid only when the trouble i8
over. The sun should shino in the night
wat such times."
The mare made the best of her way
torilic neighboring village, where the
rider now determined to stop, recruit
and pass half a day at least.
Dirty, drenched, sore with travel,
haggard as ho was, it may be supposed
that he did not feel ovor-communica-tive
to the people at the tavern, who
ciared at the stranger the harder.
:Tlie thought him not at all prepossess
in o-i-poorfproud. no baggage, and, very
lilfely, no roone.
The rnare, however, was stalled; not

"Sut there she is, honSomedeYer,"
ljn8Ste? tboothcra; and they went out I
to the barn to reassure thcmsolvo.
Meamvhilo the strnnffor, having zone
in to wash and make his garments some
what more tidy, disclosed to the land
lord, a bloody gash upon the side of h:s
head, which he bathed, and, calling for
plaster, dressed it.
"How did you get that wound,
friend?" asked the landlord, curiously.
" A falling bough in the storm last
night," was the answer. rfiri.'san-
j "l did not think it was so severe a cut.
uu luuuu vu uo to manage my liorse, I
hardlv gave it a thought."
" Where might you be from, sir?"
continued the landlord, not exactly sat
isfied. "I might be from any quarter of the
world you choose," said the strjner;
"and if I told you from England, I
don't know that it would make you any
wiser. Don't begin to catechise a tired
man. If 1 pay my way, that's all you
need wish of me."
"Humph!" grunted the landlord, as
he ordered a table ready for his bluff
visitor. " I'm not sure that this fellow
ain't a rough customer and a suspicious
character. I'll keep an eye on hiny."
While the stranger was at breakhtst,
those who had been toinsnectthe h rac
reasserted that it was tio uther than
Amos Dunbar's mare: and, whispering
to the landlord about it, they agreed to
ask the stranger how she came" into his
possession as soon as he had finished
his meal.
' Ho had a heap of money about him
when he went awav, yesterday," said
the innkeeper, shaking his head in a
sinister manner.
"hook he.e, straiiircr." said one of
the villagers, as he rose from the table
and came forth, "ahi't that same Dun
bar., mare, that you rid here?"
" I don't know him. Why do you
ask?" .aid the stranger frown'ng at
what he considered village imperti
nence. " Hut wo know h:s marc; and that's
her, sure as snakes. He left here,
where he lives, j'en'd'y forenoon on her
back, ami you must have met him, else
how come you by his horse?"
" I have ridden her about two hun
dred miles, and si she couldn't well
have been here 3'esterday," replied tho
stranger, vexed at the suspicious
glances which were cast upon him, and
attributing them to the insolence which
a soiled exterior sometimes invites
fiom the low-minded.
Without staying to hear their re
plies, he tinned his back suddenly
upon them, and proceeded to the barn,
where be took from the saddle a large
leathern pocket book, and. concealing
it about his person, returned to the
house.
" I had forgotten that." he reflected.
" Without money 1 might indeed give
cause for .suspicion."
A boy in the barn had noticed this
act, and, hearing that the man was a
suspected horse thief, he ran hi and
told the landlord.
Suspicion now increased against the
stranger. Why didn't he tell a straight
story? Wiry did he fa!sif" about the
mare? Why was ho so cfose-minded?
Amos Dunbar was widety known as a
wealtlry man, and his favorite mare,
Julc, was equally well known in the
village. He had ridden nw.iy with her
the da' before, with a large sum of
monuy. Now, a stranger had come
back with her, tretoiidhir not to have
seen him. What did all this mean?
The landlord sent at once for Mrs.
Dunbar, who came in great haste and
anguish, identified the mare, even the
.saddle, and now joined in the painful
belief that the traveler had niuniered
her husband for his mone and lied
tiDon his beast, not deeming that he
was coming to tho ver3' place where
he would be must easil3 detected.
Tho ire of tho people at the tavern
was aroused, and the3' again confront
ed the stranger, having procured a
constable, a'ld to his dire alarm, the
mare having been brought from the
stable, he waa told to consider himself
under arrc?t, unless he could give a
satisfactory explanation of the nryster
The presence of .Mrs. Dunbar added
solemnity to tho inquest. Hut the
stranger's indignation still overmaster
ed his alarm.
' The mare was hired by me in the
cit which is over two hundred miles
awa3. I have ridden her night and day
siuco then, onl' stopping for a few
hours' rest and refreshment, and intend
to do so until I reach H , whither
important business urges mo to this
haste. More 3':u have no right to
know, and more I will not answer, un
less compelled in due form b' those
who have a ripht to question mo."
"Surely. I ought to know my own
horse, which . was brought up by us
from a foal!" exclaimed .Mrs. Dunbar,
petting the animal affectionately, while
tears of apprehension rolled down her
face.
" Madam," said the stranger, in a
more soothing tone, " you arc eertain
! mistaken in tho identity of the ani
mal. 1 have ridden her, as 1 sa3 for
more than"
"Don't lie any moro!" roughly inter
rupted tho landlord. "Murder will
out, and vou might as well tell the truth
first as hist For"
He was in turn interrupted b' a sav
age spring, which the stranger at that
moment made toward him. to avenge
tho insult of being called a liar; and
had not others lhckily for tho rash
host quickly interposed, ho would
have paid a severe penalty for his rash
ness. " Hold him! Ho is getting desperate
now!" cried the equally enraged host.
" He'll have to swing vet, I'll be bound.
WI13' don't j'ou search him? Ho has
been seen to take a pocketbook from
the saddle!"
" Where my husband always keeps it
when ho rides far," said Mrs. Dunbar.
"You need not search me it is
mino.V insisted the stranger, instinct
ively endeavoring to prevent the indig
nit3 Oh! but there is need!" said the
Constable. " If it's yours, you'll get it
again, and here it is," he added, draw
ing it from beneath the shirt-bosom of
the suspected man. "Mrs. Dunbar, do
3on know that pocket-book?"
She opened it'and disclosed a pile of
bank-notes, her husband's name written
on the inside, and papers which could
belong to no one but him.
"Proof positive!" said everybody;
and their looks of horror were equaled
by those of the stranger, who was evi
dent confounded. He trembled now;
but, partialby recovering himself, ho
said:
"lknow not how it came. I had a
pocket-book like that," and lifting up
his hands, ho added: " And I call on "
"Don't blaspheme, sir; don't commit
an3' more sin; you can't deceive us.
You must now "
An unexpected interruption forever
cut short what might have been a very
majestic sentence from the Constable.
For the acccsed man, desperate at his
situation, and stung to ferocity b3' the
behavior ot hisv interrogators, with the
quickness of light, knocked down two
who stood in his way, and in another
instant bounded upon tho marc, who
was standing handily at his side, and
putting her to the top ot her speed be
fore any could interpose, he shook a
defiant fist back at them as htj rode, and
was soon out of sight, disappearing over
the hill, in the direction from which he
had come in the earhy morning.
"Confound the luck!" hemutttred,
as the fleet mare sped. "I had no
mind to bo imprisoned, and had rather
clear nryself to save time. I fancy how
it is. My horse is lost. I will try to
5t back to Mossy Brook and lind'hcr.

wronjr saddle was put upon her by the
bungling hostler. Yet, now two mares

Two or three horsemen were indeed
in hot pursuit, though still a milo be
hind, vet mounted on fresh horses, and
were fast lessening the distance between
them and the fugitive.
As ho descended a hilL tho sight of a
wood had almost induced him to dis
niouiil and seek its shelter afoot, when,
coming fast in the opposite direction,
he saw another mounted traveler.
Soon the wore abreast of each other,
and. at the instant, both reined in and
dismounted. Their mutual glance ex
plained the uncomfortable problem.
The horses were almost precisely
alike in shape, color, size, etc., save that
one had but two white feet, the othei
four.
"My name is Arnos Dunbar!" ex
claimed that individual, smiling, and
extending his hand. "No explanation
is needed, sir; the hostler was half
drunk and acknowledged that he had
made the bungle. Here is 3our pocket
book," ho added, delivering it. "Thar,
too, is like mine, ami was jiiaccd where
I placed mine. But when I opened it I
saw 3'our name, 'William Norton!'"
That is my name, dear sir. Your
own wallet will be found at tho village
tavern, or with tho Constable. They
recognized your mare and took me foi
both murderer and thief! Here they
come, some of them. We yill ride back
together."
The pursuers came up, and a few
words of further explanation put all in
ood humor as thej' rode leisurely to
the tavern again.
That night Sir William Norton, tom-
porarilj- in America uponbusiness. was
the guest of Mr. Amos Dunbar and his
now verj agreeable wife. The3' found
the knight something better than a
highwayman, his courtry manner shin
ing through his travel-worn apparel;
and he confessed, when he resumed his
journey in the morning, that he had
learned this significant moral; through
out life to be careful that 3ou mount

The Citr of Tunis.
Tunis, situated on an isthmus bound
ed 113- two lakes of Fait water, presents
a moit imposing and picturcsquo ap
pearanceas the traveler Ksncs from the
narrow canal that connects the capital
with (foletta, a small seapoit on the
Mediterranean, which possesses one of
the sfaest and most commodious road

has been renowned for its beauty, the
ancients st,ling the city as Tunis the
Fair, while the Arabs havo surnatned
it, turn by turn. The Glorious, The
Faithful, The Heavenly ami Tho Abode
of Jo'; but in more modern times, in
common with other celebrated Moham
medan cities, it has become notl for
the absence of all sanitary precautions
and some travelers have called it Tunis
the l'iltlt3". The principal lake on which
the city is situated is called El Balryr
ah. It is about -oventeeu miles in cir
cumference, anil under favorable con
ditions its wa'ers might be made as
useful and n?ornamen al as are the ca
nals of Venice; but, unfortunate', since
centuries it has been the receptacle of
all the filth of the cit3 and it is now so
choked as to render navigation impos
sible save in the long, narrow and tor
tuous course pursueilby the boats that
sail between the two cities. But even
such serious defects are ignored at tho
lirst aspect of theo waters Hashing
brilliantly in the blue and gold reflec
tions of the glorious sk3 with Tunis in
all its Oriental splendor at tho extrom
it3 of the lake. The cit3- is built on a
gentle slope, and its walls and buildings
are softened in the radiant atmosphere
to a white satin tinge, in strong con
trast to the surroundinir mountains,
that assume a rose and darkish-bluo
tint, according to tho bold relief or tho
shadow of their formation, while tho
scene is enlivened by countless flocks
of bright-colored birds that Hit over the
waters.

tho pleasing illusion is speedily lost, and
that which appeared from afar as a

some of the open sites with wh'ch the
city is studded, but which are mostly
dedicated to cemeteries and to tho
rums of palaces and strongholds that
mark the salient history of Tunis since
its foundation in the birth of our civil
ization. The cit3 may be divided into
three parts, respectively devoted to tho
Europeans, tho Arabs and the Jows.

The upper part of the cit fornrng a
species of amphitheater, is inhabited by
the Mussulmans, andoh the summit is
tho Kaslah, or citadel, which is justly
celebrated for its Oriental magnificence,
the approaches being embellished with
massive Roman and Saracenic ruins,
with fountains shaded 03 marble porti
cos wrought with the most intricate and
elaborate devices, and with the uppet
spaces studed with palm and other trop
ical trees. The citadel itself must have
formed a redoubtable stronghold during
the Middle -Ages, but with modern ar
tillery its hcav3 embattlements could
be breached in a few hours. It con
tains main monuments dedicated to the
Kings of "Tunis, some huge towers on
which are cut various texts from the
Koran, and an armory dating from the
time of Charles V., of Spain, containing
a most valuable collection of military
trophies. There is also an arsenal, a
powder manufactory and depots for
provisions and supplies; indeed, tho
citadel is almost a complete cit of it
self, with its arcades, its galleries, its
vaults and subterranean passages, in
which, without a guido, it would be as
easy to loso one's way as in the cata
combs of Rome. From the ramparts is
a most maguiticent view, but the chief
attraction to tho e3e is the Be3's pal

sidered as tho finest typo yet extant of
the Moresque style of'architccture, aud
superior even to thb Alhambra in the
beaut3 of its lace-liko ornamentation
and tho brilliancv of the colored marble
with which it is'chictly adorned. This
superb building shows in all its purlieus
that strango mingling of misery and
magnificence that, since the davs of

In America, beef takes precedence
over other meats; generally cooked in
pieces, or what we call steaks. I main
tain that theo steaks when but half
cooked are not the best food for a weak
digestion. A stron flow of gastric
juice is necessary to act upon bee', and
that flow a weak digestion cannot afford.
So great is the preconceived opinion
about the benefit to be derived from
"rare beef." that people who have
realh no power to deal with it will look
upon it as the only thing that can sup
port them. This is a mistake. All
meat to be really digestible ought to
have passed through a he it process in
cooking-which will coagulate or thicken
the fluid portions of it, partially soften
the fibor, and make it ea-J for macera
tion, and bring the food in sucli a state
into the stomach that it does not need
raising in temperature. A weak diges
tion must alw-iys bo careful of raw and
cold Hubstances of substances that
bring with them a lower temperature.
Raw beefsteak, so much approved of. is
lor a time a dead weight in the stoimch,
aud although the people eating it may
feel this dead -weight for a time, they
still persevere in eating it, and think it is
the only food that will give them
strength. Let steaks and chops bo
done through with quick but gentle
heat, and the' will be no burden on the
stomach. I am, however, also of opin
ion that, as we progress in the knowl
edge of food ami it action, we shall
more aud more discontinue chops aud
take to a milder way of cooking meat
Something must be "very wrong in our
food econoniy if the suffering from tho
disarrangement of the digestive process
is so universally widespread. Roasted
beef. when properly dine. is
strength-giving, and would bo digesti
bio if it were not eaten in largo
quantities and were properly mas
ticated. Bolting fond is about the
worst way of eating for a weak diges
tion, and is actually one of the principal
reasons why wo sutler from it. The
moment the matter is thought over, it
will appear to everv thoughtful person,
that if the teeth wero given us. they are
for a purpose, and that some time must
be necessary, to briny tho food in a
propcrh macerated condition into tho
stomach. The weariness and dead
weight felt after bolted food is inde
scribable. The outside of roasted meat
should never be taken In those suller
ing from a weak digestion. Roast mut
ton is a very wholesumo food for a
weak digestion, and there can bo no
better nourishment than the inuer sicc3
of a leg of mutton. Mutton is more
delicate of texture than beef, has a finer
fiber, aud nearly as much nourishing
proport3. It is easier masticated, of
light-ir weight, and gives far less un
easiness in the stomach. It is also
easier of preparation. A well-covored-up
roast of mutton that has not lost its
gra3' in cooking is a very wholesome
dish "for the dyspeptic. Steamed mut
ton alo is nourishing aud light for the
stomach, and should be far more often
served in our restaurants. It would be
an excellent change, and 3'et it is but
seldom met with. A slice or two of a
ktcamud leg of mutton, with caper
sauce and some light vegetable, may be
eaten with safety l3' a delicate person.
A rice pudding." well steeped in milk
and prepared without eggs, luit flavor
ed with ground cinnamon and sugar,
will follow so well that for once the
dyspeptic need not undergo the inevit
able torture after he has dined. Lamb
possesses still more the characteristics
needed for delicate persons. It is.
however, not so rich in nutriment as
mutton Besides, it requires siu-h care
ful cooking that it is but too often burnt
up in roasting, orboiledtorags. A lire it
or neck of lamb, gentby simmered with
rice, a few popper-corn , mace and salt
being added, also some finely-chopped
parsley, is a very excellent dish for the
dyspeptic. Veal has excellent proper
ties. Like, the meat of all oung ani
mals that are not full grown, it is
tender, but the fiber is not a!was
digestible and needs careful cooking.
Its nutritive properties are not so good
as those of mutton, bit yet are suffi
cient to make it a valuable food. Veal
should be well done, but bo gently
cooked, so that all tho albumen in it is
coagulated or set and the fiber well
softened. Roasted veal is a dish in
which a weak digestion may indulge
sometimes, if tho roasting process has
not been such as to put tho meat in an
overheated oven, where the juice is
dried out, but if the meat has been cov
ered with greased paper or a cover
while roasting, ami so remains moist
and becomes tender. Steamed veal is
moro digestible if carefullv prepared,
and can be eaten with profit, together
with a slice of tongue. About pork
there are many different opinions. My
own is that it is not so indigestible as it
is Slid to bo if it is young and has boon
properly and carofulby fed. In all ani
mal food a great deal depends upon the
manner in which the animal has been
fed, and perhaps no flesh shows its
breeding and feeding so much as that
of the pig. Fork should not be dark
and too red when bought, but have a
delicate pink color and vcr3 white fat.
Never cook it violently; such cooking
hardens the fiber and makes it indiges
tible. Cover tho meat in tho oven aud
do it gently. I never bate an meat;
there is no neccssit3 if it is covered. It
should cook by its own fat If veal is
very diy and has not fat oncugh, let it
bo "covered with greased paper or
rubbed over with pieces of but
ter, or some mild fat bacon be
put around it. Half our indigestion is
derived from the careless manner in
which meat is cooked. Roasted pork
may now and then be indulged in b3'
those that arc not far gone in (kspep
sia, nut only if it is young and can be
got well cooked; if that is not the case,
leave it aloue and do not touch it.
Salted meats are more indigestible than
fresh meats, and et how carelessly
oven delicate people sit down to corned
beef, while neglecting the more digest
ible article mildly salted pork. Salt
drives the waters" elements from tho
meat, and, therefore, hardens the liber,
for it closes them up more. It is, how
ever, possible to soften salted meat in
cooking, if it is properlj done. Let it
simmer very gontby and longer than
fresh meat," with not too much water,
and place it in the saucepan with warm
ish, not with cold water. I steam the
beef. If well pressed when done, the
beef will become tender, and a slice or
two when so cookod can be digested.
There is a mild wa3 of seasoning pork,
which would much enhance the value
of that meat A hand or shoulder of
pork rubbed in with best salt "for a few
da3s, then well washed, rubbed dry
anil placed in warmish water with
3oung spring greens and verv genth
simmered, is quite a passable'uish. It
must, however, be very young pork.
The same dish may come on the table
cooked by two different persons; one
ma3 be digestible, the other the oppo
site. Choice of meat and preparation
occasion that difference. Let me say a
very serious word to all those who
cook for dyspeptics; cook and serve
appetizingly. If you do so, the secre
tions, that is, the saliva and gastric
juice are encouraged in flow, and im
prove the digestion of the food wonder

-In the putting up and shipment of
goods tho Urucar gives these general
directions: Send only good artie'es
The freight ami other expenses eat up
poor goods. Put up everything in good
order. An attractive look hecures ex
amination, and otten makes a sa'o
where a dirty package or a slovcnh aj
pearance fails. Pack securely, .o that
the motion will not allow the" contents
to change about Ute plenty of clean,
dry, tine-cut straw with eggs. Mark
plainh with paint a stencil plate is
best--aud note contents on the box or
barrel, stating the amount also. Secure
for3'ourself a reputation for fine goods,
put up in the bo-.l shape, so that your
mark is in demand.
Moth Preventive -Moths can be
kept out of carpets by having the floor
washed in strong suds in which borax
has be-n dissolve 1 at the rale of a table
spoonful to a p.ul of water, and after
dusting black pepper on the edges tack
the carpet down again. By this means
moths are kept awav, and as comer
ami folds are their favorite hiding
places they are searched out and do
stroyed. "ingrain and other carpets
after being taken up can be brightened
in color by sprinkling a pound or two
of salt over their surface and sweeping
carefully. It is usu d to occasionally
wipe oil" the carpet w th borax water,
using a wot flannel and taking care
not to wet the carpet butonh todampon

No ono knows until she has trind
it how much she may change the aspect
of things about the house by uing a
little varnish. On a sunshiny "day take
the old chairs and tables out on the
porch or by au open door, and after
thoroughly dusting and wiping off with
a damp cloth apply a thin co it of var
nish, ami so cover up scratches and
marred spots of all kind1?. It will dry
in a verv short lime, and you will bo
surprised to see how much good you
have done. A flannel cloth with a very
little lin'ced oil is good to rub furirture
w th. but the greatest care must be
exercised to prevent any oil being loft
on the wood to attract dust. It must
be rubbed until you would not know,
except by the improved appearance,
that any oilJiad been used.
It ma3 bo of s miu value to house
keepers who havo marble-top furniture
to know that tho common solution of
gum arable is an excellent absorbent,
and u ill remove dirt, etc., from in-ir-b'o.
The method of applying it as fol
lows. Bniih the dust off the nieeo to
be cleaned, then apply with a brush a
good coat of gum arabic, about the
consistency of thick office mucilage,
expose it to tho sun or dr3 wind, 'or
both. Iu a short time it will crack and
peel off. If all the gum should not peel
off, wash itlth clean water nnd a clean
cloth. Of course, if the lirst applica
tion doe not have the desired effect it
should bo applied again. Another
method of cleaning marble Is to make
a paste with soft soap and whiting, wash
the marble with it and then leave a
coat of paste upon it for two or t'uee
du3'.s. Afterwards wash off with warm
(not hot) water and soap. Young Sci
aitist. Tools aud Teams.
With some, time and labor appear to
be almost as worth'ess commodities as
they possess, so little do they attempt
to economizo in them. To men who
properly appreciate their value,
their waste through thoughtlessness
or almost criminal neglect, is astound
ing. Hero is a man. who, instead of
supplying himself with a proper set of
tools and implements, begins the season
with those that are nearly worthless.
The wagon breaks down, the plow
gives out the harrow breaks, the culti
vator will not "work, and he goes
through the season, mending first ono
thing and then another, and finds at
the end that he has actually wasted
enough in time to havo bought new
ones at tho beginning. It is never jirofit
aole to use worn-out tools and imple
ments on the farm. When an imple
ment is worn out it is reasonable to
suppose that it has done all the wont
that it was originally intended to do,
and we ought to be satisfied.
Another man will attempt to get
through the season with a team that is
entirely unfit for service. It creeps
over the ground like an elephant on
slow parade, and does not do, because
it cannot one-half the work that a good
team would do. but cats just as much
and causes continued vexation to the
owner. If there is anything on the
farm more unprofitable than another,
except a poor farmer, it i a worn-out
team. It would have been better if the
matter had been attended to before
this, but it is never too late to get rid
of a poor team. Better spend a week
in hunting for a good ono than to con
tinue with one that cannot do one-half
the work that a good ono would do.

Kicking Cows.
Nothing is more common among boys
and thoughtless persons than a treat
ment of animals which one moment's
reflection wonld show to be ruinous to
thoir quiet and gentle habits. A cow
kicks spitefully, nut if she happens to
do no harm, she escapes the penalty.
She accidentally moves her foot and up
sets a full pail of milk a tempest of
blows descend upoa Jier. Such a course
will soon spoil any cow. or. her kicks
are borne without notice till the pa
tience of the milker is exhausted, and
then commences a general broadside ot
kicks, thumps, blow and beating. It
is impossible for any animal, possessing
even the sagacity of x politician, to un
derstand stch treatment, or to form any
distinct connection between cause and
effect offense and penalty. Gentleness
is the best and most efficient way to
cure a kicking cow. If vicious, confine
her in such a manner that she ran do no
harm, but whatever else, occurs, never
beat or kick her. Oritfwwa Work.
