• • • • Profits of Farming. During the years of Mallon', many t -farmers imbibed the notion that they - could ruu a farm by hired belP, and make a heavy profit ou the. products. But times have changed. By th 3 ruder and simpler ways of farming, N'ihich too ' many yet practice, there is no profit. Low prices for all kinds Of prodece ren- der it necessary that .the prcjpri&or should be the operator. Lae h urs in bed, and afternoons in the adjoiuing towns, no longer answer. ! he farmer who would. prosper now musi be the first up in the morning. Early breakfasts must be the rule.. The proprietclr must see, himself that the stock are fed and. watered—the horses curried. an 1 messed ready for the field. T leo must lay off his coat and say ' c . boys." It is lieceSsary he should b the ground to see that everytLin done in time—and in the shortest t He must have his eye on his men, teams, his crops, and all tbeopereti It is not necessary in these opera that his leborers, if his farm be so, large as to irequire them, 'should feel that he is oppressiVe or unnecessar- ily exacting. • He can. by th spirit in which he carries himself, n ake work pleasant and light, and all a ouud hina happy--andyet double the vox done that -would be in his absenc He can have a pleasant word for his aborer,his sons, his wife and daughters, and thus they will harmoniously co-op rate with him in pushing the labors of the farm. In case of emergencies they 1.ii ill INcillillg- ly put in extra exertions to b jag about • special objects greatly to his benefit. But the necessity of the time requires that the fainter should be the first astir —carry the heaviest load, and remain longest in the service., .But by the sweat of his brow he will thus be en- abled to eat bread,pay taxes, and r deem his homes encumbrance We are coming back to hard times, aid no- thing but hard work, wisely appli d can solve the problem. Adoptath rule which never fails of success, "Get the dollar before you spend it."—Iowa State Regieter. Chinese Business Tac. _ It has been noticed. for some . years that the Chinese have been graelually crowding the English and American merchants out of their 'position in the foreign tradeiu the east, on account of their superior tact and economy. The native agents who were once iettiployed by foreign houses to make heir pur- chases of teas andi other :products, formed an organization aim ug them- selves, added their commis ions and controlled the market. T iey . ship nearly all ' the rice from ,`'aiggii in Cochin China, and control the sugar trade of Amoy •and Formosa once so • profitable •to ' foreign hoes s. They have their own lin© of steatners, and trade successfully in many In ian cities, including Manillas British Bu -mall and Calcutta. There are more t ian 1100,- 000 Chinese in Singapore, an they are increasing While European. are di- minishing. They hold posit]. a in Java against the stern oppositio of the Dutch residents. In New Zealand the Chinaman is found. It s _related that in Otago, where Scotch a en are a _ majority of colonists, a co • tract for grading a road was to 'be let, and the lowest bid was signed " AV Is hereon." Notice was sent to the said 'Pherson to meet the board and 00111 lets? the Contract. In due time they met, but • behold ! M'Pherson was yellow ill! hue and had an s_ -unmistakable pigtail. "But," gasped the presidena "your name oan't - be M'Pherson?" "Alle lightee," cheerfully answend John, • "nobody catch um contract n Otago less he name be Man," The contract was sighed, and the Mongolian M'Pher- sort did his work as well as if he had really hailed froth. Glasgow. -e- merican Aranufeicturer. • • An Old-Fashion.ed Reaper. One day justbefore harvest au Ohio . farmer. went to Cincinnati to buy a reaper. A. delighted agent collared the granger and dragged him into his ware- house. As they walked down the Nyell- stocked room the farmer, in a con- templative mood, quoted the line, • "There is a reaper whose name is death," • but before he could start theseeond line the agent broke in : "Ah, yea, 1 kuow it, sir. I know it like a book. We handled that reaper one seasona sir, and. I'd take 5,000 oat of iny pocket this nainute if it -could undo the damage that reaper did our business in that ne year. You don't want it, sir. You don't want to look at it. The machinery is coin- _ plicated; it gets out of order easily': you have to send clear to . Akron for a new piece of gearing ; it doe n't cut clean, and. it nearly kills the horses ; jams their shoulders all to pie es, sir. • I know that reaper, sir. jWs au old style, sir, and you donwant it. NOW here, sir, I can s ow yoti - a reaper that --" Du% the aston- ished farmer just interrupted him to . •say that he knew the reaper he- men- tioned was au old style, but he was cer- tain it did. its work well, though, all the same. It•wasn't the kind he wanted and he had no idea of buying it to to work on his farm. He bought another • vi reaper, blood -thirsty as a Cossack, and h red as an autumn suuset, aud the agent pi told how nicely he sold . a reap.er to an ec old fellow who came in there just dead. ai set for some old machine that lhe had in never heard of before. :di ,Iu• •• ' A Scotch Hero. •ai. The Abbe Reuyal was the first to be • give publicity to the followiug remark- fo able instance of Highland izzgenuity di and courage: The hero of it was a ser- li 1 • geant of Montgomery's Highland Regi- ly ment, and his name Allan Macpherson. , of • Being ta.ken, prisoner by the Indians, ' so, he was doomed to witness the miser- to able spectacle ot several of his com- , th rades tortured to -death. Seeing them M commencing to perform the same opera- en i tions upoli hiniself, he made signs that M • he had. something to communicate. An sc • interpreter was brought. Macpherson " vi told them that, provided his life was • to spared a few mientes, he would- corn. , it ' . municate the secret of au extraordinary i ni medicine, which, if applied to the skin, ; go would cause it to resist, the strongest pla, blow of a tomahawk or sword, and. that , th if they would allow him to go to the occ woods with a guard to collect the plants Jo proper for this medicine, he would pre- , pro pare it and allow the experiment to be tried ou his own neck by the strongest thr arid most expert warrior among thein. This story easily gained upon the super- "t stitions credulity • of the Indians, and the the request of the Highlander was in3.- mediately complied with. - Being sent : link into the woods, he soon returned with. i “ • har- he ozae e on g ia one.

In these days! of excessive publication, what we do' notread of we are in- clined to:believe does not 'exist. - Oc- casionally, hdwever, instances of mod- est unassertiVe heroism get. into 'print, and it is pleasant and encouraging to notice them. Here,are two: Peter Rapp, aged 23, died; in Ginein- nati a. few days ' .go. Nobody. had known or even heard Of him' for, he Was only the driver 9f a street car,earu- ing a miserable pittanee. Still with • this pittance lie had for years supported his father and mother, both invalids and unable to work, and having pro- 'ded for them, had actually nothing f r himself. T_,ast winter he could buy neither ondergarments nor overcoat,and hie was Obliged. to walk daily from his Floor house and back, uine miles, be- cause the street car companies, as gen- eons there 'p,s here, would not allow their employees, when off duty, to ride fee.

Sbe is the most famous Yellow fever nurse in the South —a fact which one would never learn from her own lips. She took excellent care of patients during the :prevalence of the scourge in 1837, and - again iu 1852;she was .faithfully at her post. Two years later,.

Y. Times.. ' • ..._ . • Mrs. Joblink's New Bonnet. How does it look ?" demanded Mrs. Joblink last evening as she took a last look over her shoulder at thelnairror be - ore leaving for the theatre. "It" meant the new bonnet, and ' Mr. Job - link concealing his real feelings, replied like a dutiful husband: " Splendid, my dear." The wind blew, and the soul of Mrs. Jobliuk took- fright, and,- they stop- ped on the street while W. Joblink carefully tied his_ handkerchief over the bonnet for the protection of the Mira - beau feather, the Afghanistan bangle and the Zulu bow. --Before reaching the theatre a place in deep shadow gave opportunity to remove the handkerchief, anti:with ouef last careful feel to ascer- tain "if it set straight," and also an an- xious touch of her Montague curls. Mrsajoblink sailed into the opera house with head erect end eyes vacant with a preoccupied stare absurd. under the cirquinstances. If the new bonnet had been a tray of China dishes Mrs. Job - link could not have.beeu moreconscious of it nor held her head more steadily. Despite that fixed stare of preoccupa- tion Mrs. Jobliuk was deliciously aware of the - triumphant fact that every female eye and -lorgnette in the house was fixed -critically. angrily, admiringly or enviously upoiathat towering twenty dollars' worth of trash on her summit. When sufficient time had ` been given for the female population to take it all in. the lady recovered from her . preoc- cupation, and suddenly descending into a lightsome mood, bent the bonnet to- ward. !'Jr. Joblink and engaged that secretly annoyed gentleman in gay and fashionable conversation, using her eyes . - ✓ side observatiou to discover the anions tempers into which the bonnet ad put the two hu ndrnd ' other ladies -esent.

Job- -k the view of the stage was frequent - cut off at the most exciting moments the drama. The nervous little man id[darrmait in a peevish tone, a little o loud on 'one of these occasions,•and e lady turn.ed. and stared at him,•and r. Joblink turned and: scoveled. threat- ingly at him. At the close of the play rs., Joblink exehanged glances of lofty cinity, and ascertaining, by sei se of OM with several hostile ladies- in the nch and questioning her husband that ' set straight,".she stalked out mag- ficeutly on joblink's arn3. That ntleman was ranch impressed by the y, and thought silently over it half a way home. Mrs. Jobliuk was also upied with thought. presently Mr. blink said iu a tone of warzu ap- val ',It held the attention of the audience cnighout, didn't it ?" , Yes, indeed'," simpered the lady, here wasn't one of them could keep ir eyes off it for five minutes." It was magnificent," cried Mr. Job - Gracious, I didn't know you adrnir-. ful Edison going to get his wiresthrou the pipes, I should like to know ?" a ed an unbeliver. Edison thought over. , . " Why,see here,Joh us= 1" he exclai ed the next morning, " I'll make a b that will drag a wire through all t pipes in New York." " Make a bug !" said Johnson," wh in the world are you talking about 2" "Well, I'll make a bug," said Edis "an iron bug that will go where y send it and drag a wire after it." His assistants drew around while described his coming, or, rather, going—bug. Next day he hatched rude specimen of that insect as large a coat button. And it stood out on t table and crawled. - • It was constructed thus. A mini electro -magnet carried behind it a fi insulated wire, the armature of t magnet operatiug a friction pawl. No observe—everytime the circuit is dos through the magnet the arinature ci. attracted, the pawl aches the sid of the gas -pipe with i s claws, and t magnet behind is dra,wn toward t armature about a ealliehth of an inc Wheu the circuit is open t armature reaches forward read to take a second step. Thus, every closing of the circuit the lit magnet advances one step and dra orward the insulated wire.

If you do not wish to rip the breadths apart, brush the skirts perfectly free from dust, and then sponge them on the right side with clear cold coffee,and iron with a moderately hot iron on the wrong side—or over a bit of print, such as an apron. White goods will lint it. To restore a dress that is turned brown, cut the seams open close to the sewing —to save the time of ripping, and brush them free from dust. Then take two spoonfuls of the extract of logwood, and two spoonfuls of the 'crystals of cop- peras, and put, them into three or four gallons of boiling hot suds. Put in all the pieces of black goods you desire to color over, and let them boil five min- utes. Take out and rinse in warm water, with a stick, lifting them up and down. Do this thoroughly. Run through a wringer, and hang in the sun to dry ; iron ou the wropg ;side before they become too dry. BOSCIIEE'S GERMAN SYRUP can -now be purchased right at horne.
