And,even so, wlaile we cannot but admire the zeal and earnestness and -devotion of Messrs. Jones and Small, it does seem a pity -that men of such,mark- ed ability should resort to the use of language which is simply indefensible-. They are at times coarse, harsh, shock- ing, and even vulgar. They don't know this, they think otherwise. They even go so far as to quote the words and ex- ample of Jesus Christ in defense of their use of slang.. This is Sam Jones' chief defect in the eyes of his best friends. They can see it, though he is blind to it, and while it is not an unpardonable of- fense, the sooner Sam Jones abandons it the better. It is one of his "secret faults "-secret to him -and that prayer of the Psalmist, "Cleanse thou me from secret faults," should be his constant prayer -until his eyes are opened to see them, so that he may forsake them and thusquadruplehis power as a good min- ister of Jesus.

This is all true, but at the same way tyrant rarely earns has - quarter all 'round lta!,: his pretense of blacking shoes and flipping dust from his victim's back, but it is the habit of this wooden -legged man to utilize the darkey in taking off that leg and making him earn his hire. On one trainhe struck an uppish sort of swell who sings out " last call for - dinnah in the dining cal?" Thai darky stood around wilh a languid dignity that would make a street corner dude sick at heart. The man with the wooden leg made up his mind he would "wake that nigger up " before he -chipped, in his quarter. He told a couple of men in the car his purpose, and they joined in with him. 1fe wears his shoe firmly fastened to the wooden leg,having no need to remove it, and having fallen once from a loose shoe. After his berth had been made up he went to the dressing -room and unstrap- ped his leg, keeping hold of the strap, and then got to his berth. Then he call- ed the porter. "I've got rheumatism *tad can't bend over,' he said, " and I wish you'd pull off that shoe." The por- ter untied the shoe and tried to pull it -off, but it wouldn't come. " Pull hard," tsaid the passenger. The darky gave it another pall. Oh, brace against the berth and pull,' said the passenger. The porter had blood. in his eye. He put his foot against the berth and pulled like a dentist. The passenger let go the strap and the darky fell back with the shoe and the leg. My -God! You've pull- ed off my leg l" shrieked the passenger. The porter dropped it, and with his eyes buiing .and his teeth chattering, he broke from the car. He concealed him- self in_a corner of the baggage car, and pretty soon the two other conspirators came in, pretended they didn't know where he was, sat down on a trunk and talked over the awful condition of the man whose leg.had been pulled off, and about the penalty the darky would have • to suffer if he should be, caught. The porter was of no service to anybody that mght,even after they explained the Joke to him. -Milwaukee Sentinel. . • Sam Jones, the Evangelist. - The good people of .Indianapolis have had a taste of Sam Jones, and they sewn to like him. He has been here ten days, and has preached on an average, twice -a day. Crawds.. flocked to hear hira ; sieve- . ral &melee% gave- up their Sunday even- ing services, and this helped to swell the multitude-. Hisaudiences were made np- chiefly of Ohurch-members,and three- fourths of them were :Methodists. .It is too soon to_ speak very definitely about the practical results of his visit. The anxious seats have not been crowd- ed except on one occasion, when, it .is said,, more than 300 asked for prayer. Butperhaps this is note greatly to be re- gretted.. There are tender souls who shrink from publicity, and especially from such publicity as is incident to a great hall where there are no " inquiry" rOOHIS. This much., however, may be set down to the credit of Messrs.-Jonesand Small, namely: It is easier to speak to people - now on the subject of religion than it was twoeweeks ago. The question, have you heard jonea? opens the. way readily to religious coeve:rsation„ and in this way, if no other, good hasbeen done. Sam. Jones is a genius; still more, le is. ingenuous. He knows- how to handle a Sword. Re has something to say and he says it in a way that -secures. atten- tion. He is 0. stamp -speaker of the very first order -a religious stump speaker, of course. He has all the excellencies and none of the defects- of Ingersoll. is intelligent, witty, warm-hearted, . pathetic, and eloquent ln-gersoll is all this; but while Ingersoll is a., blatant infidel,. Jones is a devoted, christian. Socially, he is most . companionable; religiously, he is a Methodist ; theo- logicallyhe is nothing -or, rather, he is a nondescript. He says he is no theo- logian, ani. but few :will differ from him on that point. But he- is trying to de good; he is urging -men to "quit their reetvanesa." That is his theology,. • and it is, so far, sound._ But he has a creed, nevertheless, and an article in it • he believes with all his heart. That article is Sam Jones. He believes in him: he. trots hira out on all occasions. Sam jonee, hiswife., and; their five children, muat be a very remarkable family, in- deed. At all: events they are a pretty thoroughly advertised family. Sam Jonesis-an egotist ; but he .is by no means an offensive_ egotist; on the con.- • tra.ry„ his, egotism is q-uite attractive. ' While betimes he talks- more of Sam Jones- than he does about -Thane Christ, he does it apparently so unconsciously, and with such 'evident sincerity, that his hearers are not only interested, but pleased._ fie uses Sam Jones to magnify Jesus. Christ; he never uses Jesus Christ to magnify Sam Jones. - It is easy .enough to ,criticise Sam Jones.; anybody can do that. But Sam Jones: is Sam Jones„ and no body else, and it is likely he- will remain Sam Jones to the end of the chapter. He cannot • be duplicated, nor should he be. One Sam jouea on this continent is quite enough. His co -laborer, Sam Small, never appears so weak as When he tries to imitate him. There is a place for -Sam Jones, but let all other evangelists be- ware- ofituitating his manner and meth - oda.. He has a patent on them,and they ought to remain his exclusive prop- erty. But. While the Sam Jones style of preaching is.open to serious criticism, thereda much in it that deserves the un- -qualified praise of every Christian. He says some very beautiful things and some very true things.; and o -n the whole, there is far more tobe approved than. condemned. Perhaps what the Rev. Donald Fraser, IX D., of London, says of the Saivatioii Army in the last Presbyterian Review, is equally aRpileable to the work under- taken by Sam Jones and Sam Small. Dr. l'raser says: "This is a •sort of work that was sorely needed, and noone who appreciatea the value and the difficulty it will be disposed to- pass a severe -cen- sure onthe Salvation Army forany eccen- tricities or valgatisma of language and manner which may have been induced by this giowing zeal to save the very outcasts of society." • in commenting stitt further, he says that "the swing of English opinion is rather more favorable to the Salvation Army than it was a few years ago.

From the Western Plowman. I notice that at the late meeting of the American Shorthorn Breeders' Associa- tion, several pedigrees were thrown out of 'the herd boo -k, as fraudulent. It is decidedly hard to guard against fraudu- lent pedigrees. It -is impossible to guard against fraudulent pedigrees of swine. Suppose some not very conscientious breeder has a sow of unusually good pedigree that has a litter of only five live pigs. Another -sow -of not so good pedigree farrows at the same time and her litter numbers ten. How easy to place five of the last litter with the first litter ;and if this•is done at once, the sow will own the pigs and .no one will be the wiser. Ten pigs.are recorded as the offspring of the better bred sow. The breeder cannot be detected, and has only to tell a common ordinary lie to do it. Some breeders would look upon this as a sharp trick, smart and not dishonest. I do not say that any swine breeders do this, but I have heard it hinted that some did ; and if they do, what are •they go- ing to do about it? In proportion to bulk there :is not a, very great amount of nutriment in the turnip; yet every farmer should raise a considerable ,patch for his hogs, sheep and cattle. An acre will. yield a sur- prieing bulk if the turnips are properly •put in and get a light shower just after they are sown. Frequentlyanacre of turnips will yield More .nutriment than an acre of the best corn, and they can be sown after a crop of early potatoes or sweet corn has occupied the ground., The reader certainly knows how bene- ficial any root crop is to stock When these is no pasture, and tuenips consti- tute one of the' best of root crops, hence I need not urge the raising of turnips further. For hogs they should be boiled -in a large kettle out of doors -and mixed with corn meal. The nicest lot of hogs I have ever seen was fattened on this mixture. Should we not diseontinue our com- mon practice of pasturing wheat and oats stubble with swine? It is true that some grain is left on the ground; but not nearly so ntuch now, when the self - binder is used, as once, when the grain was bound by hand. If this grain must be saved, nearly all of it will be gather- ed up ,by a hay rake, and it can be threshed or fed, as you may choose. I think it is doubtful if it pays to pasture the stubbles with swine, because, first, they "walk off" nearly as much flesh and fat hunting for their food in the stub- ble as they can make out of the stray heads of wheat or oats. Exercise rapidly cuts down a hog these days. Roaming over thestubble makes the hogs very thirsty, and as a reselt they drink too much water, which is hurtful to them. But the greater danger lies in the lia- bility of the swine to contract disease. Their nostrils are near/ the ground and they inhale the dust!rom the earth and the dust and pollen from the weeds; and this dust •irritates the 'nasal passages, throat, and luiags, likely having magi to do with the catarrhal and pulmonary affections which often ;prevail among swine in the fall. Handlerthe colts. There are many of these creatures in the country now, one or two or three months old. Gain their confidence, make them docile, by hand- ling them kindly. "As the twig is bent the tree is inclined," is very true of colts. A tame, docile colt will grow into a kind, intelligent, trusty horse. Contrari wise,an ill-natured coltwill make a vicious -horse. For this reason boys; should never be allowed to torment colts. Do not strike the colt, nor allow anyone else toalo so. Do not yell at it. Nine- ty-nine per cent; of the vicious horses are made so by bad treatment when they were colts. A trusty horse is worth much more than a vicious one, hence it is true that a very .good way to make money is to handle the colts. -joHN M. STAHL. qttine& 'TBE HURON.

He then has to mix up a lot of aconite and water, which he at- tempts to pour down the animal's mouth, when it hits him on the teeth with its front foot and .makes him wish he had never been born. He works . around all morning with the old mare and then proceeds to curry the, dun mules, which.try to see which can kick the hardest, and by the time he is through he feels as though he had. passed through a corn-sheller. When he has fed the hens, and watered cattle and hunted three hours for a twenty cent pig, and chopped half a cord of elm for the house, and carried forty buckets of water, for the horses, and shelled three bushels of corn by hand, and shoveled a road through ten feet of snow, and miked the cows, and curried the mules, and doctored the old mare again in the evening, he goes to bed, and gets up again in the morning four hours be- fore -daylight and commences the whole thing over again. . / -The first mail received in Winnipeg from the British Columbian coast con- tained no fewer than 331 letters.

There is a popular belief that news- paper men are not posted on farm mat- ters. But this is a snare and delusion. If yen doubt it, read this from the Atel ieon Globe: It is a frequent saying that the far- mer has nothing to do but enjoy, him- self ; that when the blizzards send in their cards he can draw his Chair up to the stove, put his feet in the oven, and spend the day reading the Globe and Church Herald, and other moral works. According to tradition, this occupation is only disturbed when he adjourns to the table, and banquets on mince pie and divers meats. This is all a mistake. A close observer will see the industrious farmer crawl out of bed four hours be- fore daylight, soften his boots with a hammer, and commence his day's work with a lantern in one hand and a bucket of frozen slop in the other. He has from one to a thousand hogs, which shove their noses in his faee, and tip the contents of his bucket on him, where it freezes until he looks like a skating rink. When he has escaped from the hog pen, he hunts .up six or seven buckets, and crawls through a wire fence to milk twenty-seven cows. • These ani- mals wait unpl he has the bucket nearly filled, when they kick it over, aiming so that the contents will kalsomine such -WE WOULD - !recommend for DYSPEPSIA, INDIGESTION and !kindred diseases, the use of MALTOPEPSYN. -For Consumption and all wasting diseases, the use of MORSE'S CARBOLATED NORWEGIAN COD LIVER OIL.
