In many households, the demands of school and lousiness make meal -time the only hour in whieh all the mem- bers of the fanaily are together, when tee father and mother can act in con- cert for the development and advance- ment of their children. For that rea- son, if for no other, there should be a well planned and concerted action in the table talk. There needs must be some sacrifice of perional comfort at first on the part of both parents; the father raust forego his newspaper, and the mother must forget for the time her household duties. As the parents are, so will the children be. If the father talks shop, or reads his paper, or if the mother details for the beee- fit of the rest of the family all the little vexations to which she has been subjected during the day, then the children will bring to the table their petty quarrels with each other or with their school fellows; or if they be bookish, they will bring a book to the table with them, or bolt their food in order to get back to the story. The conversatioii at table should in- clude the whole family, and should be orsufficient interest to hold the atten- tion of all from the affairs of their working hours. This needs the wise heads ot father and mother to guide it. Eschew all disagreeable topics, 11 stories of crime, or harrowing tales f any sort. Likewise forbid any sub- ct that will work upon the temper f any member of the family. It is a flown fact that bright conversation, e flow of mirth, the happy jest, or wholesome interest in the topics of e day, are an aid to digestion; wbile the other hand, any strong excite- ent, as anger, fear; or sorrow, will nder digestion by checking tem - rarity the action of the salivary ands. There are plenty of interest - g subjects for conversation without oiling the appetite of a sensitive ild by some story of horror or des- utione There is perhaps some new book that being read by one of the family in can be discussed. Often a busy mbereof the circle has no time to ad thd book for hitaself, and an in- ligent review of it at table will not y be interesting, but will give to at busy one knowleege -that he uld not otherwise obtain. here are eontinually coming before public new and interesting scien- ie iiiyestigations and inventions, out vaItich the father and elder bro- rs can tell the girls. Even the tie 'one e will be interested in ask - about a new machine, and their stions are just as important as the uiries a the older ones. Talk of affairs of State and Nation, of ideal and foreign news in a. broad- ded way that will lead the chit - n to form their own opinions, and take them ready-made from their a je th a th on en hi po gl in sp eh tit is me wh re tel ern Co the tif ab the lit ing tme inq the pol mixt dre not ea A. be to coa or jus you brig. way If t the ner at t side alon mist been occu feeli will port have day ficul net. put 0.50, your e bogie selve bash Terse They est i n Versa 001106 Will 0/11513 neon t ers. Love all, the little ones should not snubbed for their attempts to add the general entertainment. Listen rteously' when they ask questions, add their little mite of knowledge, t as you expect them to listen to . Encourage them to bring any ht bit that they can, either in the of knowledge or of amusement. he little man makes a mistake in selection of a steep, or in his man - of telling it, do not rebuke him he table. Instead, take him one after the meal is over and you are e, and explain tee nature d the ake, tell him how' it should have done, and the mistake will hardly r again. Neither will the child's ngs be hurt in such a way that he be afraid to try a second time. e conversation at table is an int- ent pert of the menu when you. etiests. With such an every - training you will not Sind it dif- t to entertain -your friends at aim- -thero need, be no extra effort forth on the part of host or host- fot the home table talk is just as guest would enjoy.

FLORAL TABLE ,DECORATION, The fact that the daily use of flow- ers on the home table has grown to lie almost universal among sortie elasses of people argues well for their appre- cietion of the aesthetic, and the artis- tic in coixtbination with the more ma- terial things ot life. Flowers have a refining influence, and it is well to use them where this influence will be exerted over the ehildren MOSt effec- tively, and at no piece about the house do they seem to come into closer cora- Panionship with them than at the ta- ble, Martin Luther blew whereof be spoke when he said that a plant in the window was powerful enough some- times to keep the devil outside: Let the child come to the breakfast table to find himeelf face to face with a flow- er or a bit of "green thing gtowing,'' and he will have a pleasant memory of the morning meal to carry with him throughout the day. The housewife who neglects to make use of flowers in the administration of the affairs of the home overlooks a potent factor for good. Make it a rule to always have something on the table beside fine china and silver and out glass to brighten it, and make it more attractive than these things can. A few flowers will make the table of the poor man pleas- anter than the rich man's is without them. But we cannot all have flowerS, some of my readers say. The plants in the windows refuse to bloom at times, and we cannot afford to buy. The very- fact that you have plants in the windovr proves your ability to do something to add to the attraction of your table. One does not need a great many flowers in order to do this, and very few window -gardens are wholly without them during the winter sea- son. A truss of geranium blossoras in a little crystal vase with a few green leaves to keep it company will brighten a table wonderfully, and often give more artistic results than a large qiialatity of flowers would. The rea- son for this is not hard to give. A few flowers must necessarily be arranged bs lomat. aPtleY' ewffheict with aainalaeldgeatik,uarashaargeet-- eral thing, and that simplicity, which is strength, is lost sight of, and a weak effect is produced because we fail to follow the teaching of Nature in oue arrangement. We twist them in- nateual shapes and positions. We crowd them. We bring forward prom- e, inently some which are only fitted for a place in the background, a.nd those , which deserve 'prominence are bidden t heause we have not studied our mater- ial and the proper disposition of it. Ex- w amine. elaborate decorations of the Labia carefully and critically, and you - will find that, nine times out of ten, they are calculated to attract atten- tion more because of the peculiarity of their make-up than because of the in- dtvidual beauty of the flowers used. Soma of them are indeed "fearfully and wonderfully made," and are only elual- led or excelled by some. of ,the "de- signs" we see at funerals. Now this is all wrong. Use flowers first, last, and always for the sake of their beauty; and give that beauty a chance to make itself seen and felt. To torture them into shapes and combina- tions which obtrude themselves upon our notice because of their novelty, or of some striking feature, is to make the individual beauty of the flowers of secondary importance. -The lover of beauty for beauty's sake will not do this. He will hold his flowers in too high regard for that. Always consider the flovaer as of more importance then its arrangement, and then aim to so dispose it that its beauty will be fully bropght out or heightened by the diSpOSEI. 4 But make arrangement sub- ordinateAlways to the Dower - An oeyinary window full of plants will furnish material enough for the daily decorations of the table through- out the season, and admit of variety enough to prevent monotony. To -day you can have a cluster of purple heliotrope and a spray of white and gold Lantana.s, with a few green leaves. To -morrow, a bunch of pink and white or yellow chrysanthemums. Next day a rose ox a few carnations. Then there will be geranium's and primroses, pro begonias and salvias, hyacinths and ery daffodils, and many other kinds of the flowers to draw from in most window- unt garden collections. So you see there E will be no lack of material to work dair with, if you are careful to use it eco- for nommally. If you attempt to use sev- fall eral kinds of flowers together, as a desi genera/ thing you will squander your out resources, for it is true that most Pro flowers are most effective when used ter by themselvea. Use roses and carna- the tions tog‘ether, and you spoil, the ef- eon feet of both. It is the same with roses of and chrysanthemums. It is the same sets with nearly all kids of flowers. In ed, order to be most satisfactory they desi must never be subjected to close con- Pre tact and comparison with others. any If the water, in which out flowers are placed, is changed daily, it is possible to keep them looking well for sevea al daye, especially if they aTE: put in a cool plate at night, Cut Off the lower end of their sterns each time you change the tvater, and terow out all Willed and faded flowers and decaying leaves. It is well to add a few drops of epirits of ammonia to the water. HINTS FOR THE FARMER, ---enne-enne.,,,...„eeeneneneeeen FAREWELL TO THE FARM.

DRIVERS REMEMBER a.IIA.T The horse is inan's invaluable help- er, Jets as mice right to be httimy at work as you have, and should be treat- ed as a friend. A, driver should be his horse's best friend and should study his com- fort. Ownership bestows no right to abuse or distress. It is everybody's business to inter- fere with cruelty. It. is better to direct your horse by a. low voice than by neep or rein. e Tee whip'is but little used by our best horsemen and never sever- ely. Horses need three square meals a day—as much as you do. You, can get noemore power from a eorse than you give him in his food.' The pertnywise •policy is meanest when applied to dumb animals. To omit the noon feeding is cruel and inapolitic—better omit your oevn. The man who robs his horse will rob his customer. Yellbag and jerking the bit confuse a horse and advertise a blockhead. Tricking or beating a horse is barbar- ous, silly and inexcusable. You should treat your horse as you, would be treated were you a horse. Any fool can ruin a team, but a wise driver maintains its value. To whip a horse, inetead ,ef his driv- er, for "cussedness" is a great mis- take. The best drivers talk much to their animals. You should praise your horse and give him apples, candy, ete.,—often. Do not clip a horse and put an over- coat on yourself.

AND ARO1VIA OF BUTTER Formerly it was thought that the flavor of butter depended almost en- tirely upon the character of the food eaten. In June when pastures were at their best, the color was of the most desirable tint and the butter posaess- ed a fine flavor. Since the discovery of bacteria and the part they play in the ripening of the cream, it has been found that the flavor of butter de- pends more largely upon the proper ripening of the cream before ehurning than upon the feed. Consequently, then, while the matter of feeding must be given careful attention, the best duet cannot be expected unless ev- attentiop is given to Lite care of milk from the time it xs drawn it butter is produced. verything about the stable and y house must be scrupulously clean, every particle of duet or feed that s into the milk will introdu.ce un- rable. bacteria. These will crowd the desirable bacteria, or those that duce the best flavors, and the but - will not be marketable.

Introduce new bleed arnong the poul- try once a year, Give lime for growth of bone and for eggshell materiel. A little cayenne pepper in the fooi often stimulates laying. Good Leghorn hens inay be kept un- til they are five years old. A laying hen should have her food and drink at regular intervals. If the hens show an inclination to pull feathers, feed them salt pork. It is essential that confined fowls be supplied with plenty of gravel. Intelligent management and feeding are as necessary with ebiclsens as with other stock. WHAT PLUCK DID. en lengusennues Experience Wee an Egyptian Mob. It is the bulldog fearlessness and tenacity of an Englishman that makes him a conqueror even when he faces a mob of barbarians, After the bom- bardment of Alexandria by the Eng- lish fleet had driven the Egyptian troops out, the city was looted by thieves and cutthroats. Three or four hundred bluejackets were landed, who stopped the outrages by arresting ev- ery person found with plunder in his possession. On arrest a person was tried by drumhead court-martial, and the sen- tence, shooting or flogging, was exe- cuted without delay. An English-, =An, Mr. Hulme Beaman, who assisted in punishing the robbers, describes in his book, " Twenty 'Years in the Near East,' a dangerous experience from which he was enabled to emerge by cool, fearless, bulldog pluck. He had been detailed to superintend the flogging if two prisoners and the shooting of a third, the sentence to be carried out at their native village, a nest of thieves. There were ten thou- sand of the riffraf looking on. Five policemen, Egyptians, and three Eng- lishmen represented law and order. The prisoner, sentenced to be shot, for a murder, was fitted into a shallow grave, aud the policemen fired it vol- ley, amid the execrations of :the mob. Only Mr. Beaman and the Egyptian officer commanding the polies under- stood what the mob were saying, and the Egyptian begged. the three Eng- lishmen to get away, while yet there was time. Tbey, however, insisted on seeing the flogging carried out, and remarked that the slightest symptom of fear would excite the mob to mur- der them. The flogging exasperated the crowd, already excited by. the execution, and they pressed close round the English- men. "It is time to put an end to infidels torturing believers I" said a portly old Arab sheikh, close to Beaman's elbow. The Englishman' seized the Arab, and told the mob they should be ashamed pf themselves to sympathize with a munlerer and thieves. A sullen sil- ence followed. The prisoner, placed in a carriage, in which a policenaatt and two Englishmen also rode,—the third riding horseback alongside—was driv- en at it walk through the dense throng to Alexandria, where a court -raartiae ordered. him to be flogged. The next year that sheikh called on Mr. Beaman at Cairo, brought with him little presents, admitted the jus- tice of his punishment, and he and Mr. Beaman remained the best of friends. The faintest signs of weak- ening would have turned that mob in- to furious wolves. Children dry for CASTOR INCORD DRIVING FEAT.

Sold at Browning's Drug Store Exeter THE BABY STIFFLY. It has been computed that about 86,- 000,000 babies are born into the world each year. The rate of production is, therefore, about seventy per minute, or more than one for every beat of the clock. With the one -a -second calculation ev- ery reader is familiar, but it is not every one who stops to calculate what this means when it comes to a year's supply. it will, therefore, probably startle a good many persons to find on the alethority of a well known sta- tistician, that, could the infants of a year be ranged in a line in cra.- dies, the cradles would extend around the world. The same writer looks .at the matter in a more picturesque light. He irattg- ines the babies being carried past a i given pointn their motbers arms, one by one, and the procession being kept up night and day until the last hour in the twelfth month had passed by. A sufficiently liberal rate is allowed but even in going past at the rate of twenty a minute 1,200 an liour dur- ing the entire year, the reviewer at his post would have seen only the sixth part of the infantile host. In other words, the babe that had to be carried wben the tramp began would be able to walk when but a mere frac- tion of its comrades bad reached the reviewer's post and when the year's supply of babies was drawing to a close there would be a rear guard not of infants, but of romping six-year-old boys and girls.

If further proof were needed of the "dictum that "there is no new thingt under the sun," it has been supplied by an article in the Revue Scientifique, which traces the invention of the auto - ear to the ingenious mechanician, Vau- cansou, just 150 years ago. In a mem- orandum recently brought ttelight, it is recorded that Vaucauson was honor- ed in 1748 by a visit frora Louis XV., for the purpose of inspecting a marvel- ous carriage that ran without the aid of a horse or any visible means of pro- pulsion. e Two persons- ..00k their seats in the vehicle, which seems to have been as gorgeous as a sheriff's carriage, and were driven around the court yard to the satisfaction of his majesty and of the Due de Mortemart, M. de Lauzun, d'Avezac, and other members of eta suite. But though a promise was se- cured of royal patronage, the A.cademy of Sciences declared that such a con- veyance could not be tolerated in the streets, and the scheme was nipped n the bud. The motive power -was sup- plied by a b.uge clock spring, so that nly a short joueney was possible, but he gear seems - to have closely re - enabled that of the horseless carriages f to -day. sand and little knots of wire into the shell of the pearl oyster, in order that the animal, to relieve itself from the irritation so caused may coat the, for- eign substance with pearl. If this matter be inserted between tbe shell and the mantle the oyster can ejeot it by contractions of his body. To pre- vent this, M. Boutan, a Frence exper- imenter, has trepanned the shell and introduced a small bead of nacre, Nellie)" might, however, be a true pearl of a small size, through the hole and fixed it by means of cement to the shell, This head was in the course of tirae covered with nacre by the oyster, and a fine large pearl was the result. Dean ere cannot distinguish it from an Ori- ental pearl. The question of making pearls in this way was recently discuss- ed at a Meeting of 'the Academis des Seienees, Paris, and M. Berthelot, the tamoUs chemiet, observed that such it pearl could only be considered tee a true pearl, if it had itt last it huhdred layer e of the pearl nacre; otherwise it would only be it foreign substance covered with nacre. Of course, if the foreign matter is a pearl itself this objection aisappogrs, and We have the means of produeang pearls at will, A.e- oording to M, Laea.ze Duthier SOITIO two years would be required for a haliotide to produeo it big pearl.
