Conquering: with Kindness.
I once had a neighbor a clever
man who came to me, one day, and i
saiu, --xusnuire ane, a waiu you io;i10t into sulkcieut Hour to make asuii
come and get yonr geese awa."
"rhy," says 1, "what are my
geese doing?''
"They pick my pigs' ears when
they are eating-, and drive them away;
and 1 will not have it'
"What can I do ?" said I.
'You must yoke them."
"That I hare not time to do now,"
said I, ''I do not seo but they must
run."
"If you do not take care of them, I
shall," said the shoemaker, in anger.
What do you say Esquire White ?"
I cannot tako care of them now.
but I will pay you for all damages."
Well," said he "you'll find that a
hard thing, I guess."
So off 1 went, and I beard a terri
ble saualling among the creese The
next news I heard was that three of
them were missing. My childreu
went and found them terribly mangled
and dead, and thrown inte the bushes.
"Now," said I, all keep still and
let me punish him."
In a few days the shoemaker hogs
broke into my core. I saw them, but
let them remain a long time. At last
I drove them ell out, and picked up
the corn which they had torn down.
and fed them with it in the road ; by
this time, the shoemaker came up in
great baste after them.
Have you seen anything of y
hogs ?" said he.
'Yes, sir, you will Cnd them yon
der, eating some cern which they tore
down In my field."
"In your field 7"
'Yes, sir,',' said I, "hoj-slove eorn
you know, they were made to eat it.".
JIow much mischief have they
donei"
"O, not much," said I. Well, off
he went to look, and estimated the
damage to be equal to a bushel and a
half of corn.
O, no," said I. "it can't be."
J Yes'," said the shoemaker, "and I
will py you every cent of. the dam j
ge
The shoemaker bbehed and went
home. The next winter, when we
came to settle,, the shoemaker deter
mine to pay roe for my corn.
U o' nid I, "I ball take nothing."
Afer some talk we partcc? ; but in
a few days I met hiu on the road,
nnd we fell into conversation in the
inobt frienlly manner. But when I
slaned on, be eemed loth to move
and paused. For a moment boih of
us were silent. At last he s: ii:
"I have something laboring on my
mind."
Well, what is it?"
"Those geese. I killed three of
your geese, and I sbull never rest un
til tou know how I feel, I am very
sorry." ana tne tears came into Ins
eyes.
"U, well," Baia I, "never mind
suppose my geese were provoking.'
"1 never took anything ol him lor
it but when my cattle broke into bis
field after this he seemed glad be
cause he could show how patient he
could be.
"Now," said I to my children,
"conquer yourselves, and vou can
conquer with kindness, where you can
ooocjuer in no oilier way.
How a Shrewd Kentucky Darkxt
Obtaikkd his Liberty. Anthony
Keux' a colored engine driver tn
board one of the Ohio river steam
boats, being asked how he cot his
freedom, replied as follows :
"Why, Massa, my health was ver7
bad when 1 was in lientucky ;
couldn't do no kind of - work, 1 was
very feeble ; 'twas jest as much as
could do to hoe my own garden and
eat the sass : and tne Misses that
own me see that I was a mis'ule nig

ain't worth nothing, and I ihink
you'd better sell me I'm such a mis'

a mis'able nigger that Missus ngreed
to sell me for a hundred dollars, and
agreed to try to work and earn the
money to pay her, and I did, and my

Ready-Mads Yeast. Perhaps our
ady readers may not, understand the
best method ot having good ready-
made yeast always on hand. We in
variably have bread made from the
east cakes prepared as follows; rut
in to three pints of water a handful of
hops and nearly a quart of red j o-.
tutoes cut into sina.i pieces, lion lor
half au hour nud strain while scalding
batter. JStir it well, adding one table
spoonful of yeast, and set it in a warm
place to rise. When light, mix it
with Indian meal, j oil oui 1'iin and
cut it into round or squ re pacts.
Drv these and keep tiitm in a bag in
a dry place. They will remain gocd
for months. Before using, take one
of these cakes for each medium-sized
loaf, soak in warm water till soli, and
add a teaspoon tul of soda tor three or
four veast cakes. Add this to the
flonr with warm water, ..nd ruise in
the usual manner. Some put the lighi
yeast without adding the lndiun meal,
into close jars or jugs, una use ss
needed. It will not keep many weeks
by this method. C ountry Gentltman.
When to Skim Max. A dairy
woman in Western New York, speaks
in the emphatic tone as to the best
time; She says, the right time to
shim milk is "just as the milk begins
to sour at the bottom of the pans.
Then the cream is all at the surface
and should be at once removed with
as little of the milk as possible. If
allowed to remain unil the acid reach
es the cream or to become think it
diminishes the cream end impairs it
in quality. The housewife or dairy
maid who thinks to obtain a greater
quantity by allowing the milk to stand
beyond that time labors under a most
egregious mistake. Any one who
doubts this has only to try it to prove
the truth of this assertion. Milk
sbonld be looked to, at least, three
times a day.
gJTh. Peraian poet says : "The
worst of men is the wise man - who
dees not put his wisdom in practice.'
Wisdom that has not the power to
show itself may be compared to the
sun without light and heat, or fire
without the power of consuming, life
without animation, faith without
works in fact a nonentity. . The
Persian poet's "Wisdom" may be
more properly named smartness or
cunning the counterfeit of wisdom
as true wisdom cannot be hid.

a dream of Eden. Time was when those
clear eyes loeked lovingly into a mother's
face, when a kind, a loving fathor laid bis
trembling hand with a blessing on that sun

blended with her own in heart music
