The object of this article is to adjourned till the 15th of Decembeitti show how this may be accomplished with profit. I would not advise any one to raise all the calves dropped in his herd. It mat- ters not how excellent the herd may be there will be some weakly calves, and calves from the poorest milkers, that canna be raised with profit or advantage. Milk being a perfect food, supplying all the elements necessary for the growth of bone, muscle, nerve and sinew, for repair- ing waste and maintaining the animal heat, "it must follow as the night the day," that the more closely we can get our sub- stitutes to resemble milk, in character and composition, the more rational and corres- pondingly successful will our practice be.

How to —What Should be Get Along Without i Le Mother Added to the itilik •erice Mat Me object was to get &little cheap advertising) that all America.n apples were saturated with arsenic. This state- inent,was reproduced in many newspapers, laud as the original paper which started the falsehood, in a later issue, gloated over the afact that these articles were eopied all over the world, the paper thus showed its hand; it wanted to get cheap adyertising. The statement is absurd that any apple or other living vegetable tissue can be saturated with arsenic, from the fact that the poison is 80 exceedingly corrosive that be- fore any vegetable tissue could become saturated, even if this were possible, it would be destroyed by the poison. The only suggestion of truth in regard to this statement is that we do spray onr orchards with Peris-green, avhich is an aceto-arsenite of copper. But ati amenical comp per cent. of arseni ereel that this is not the same by any means as arsenic, 'which is soluble, , while Paris green,is almOst insoluble; so it is not-- ab all like pueting pn our trees a mixture cotritaining 45 per eent. of soluble arsenic.

Even supporting soluble arsenic were used and every apple were covered with it, none could get into the apples.

There is a widespread desecration of the Lord's Day, even among those who ihre cell- ed, and call themselves, Christians. Many a communicant who devoutly asks the Lord on Sunday morning to incline bis heart to keep the commandment as to the Sabbath, will deliberately violate that commandment in the afternoon or evening of the same day. Why should we strictly observe Sunday ? Because God has commanded the hallowing of a seventh of man's time and claims it as his own. First, Sunday should be it rest from all secular employment. There never waa a time when the observance of Sanday aa a day of rest was more necessary than it is in this age. Faster and faster grows our rate of living. The world of business is at white heat. The world of pleasure is be- coming more and more furious in its Pursuit of amusement. The old Greek Tentalus is - not yet satisfied, but stands in the stream of his enjoyments, achievements and attain- naents, with the water to his chin, and as he attempts to drink, ever flows the stream away. The age is becoming blase, worn out, feveriah, restless, unsatisfied, discon- tented. It wants rest. It deeds rest. The asylums cannot be built fast enough for our mad men. The penitentiaries are full. We are becoming great in acts, little in men ; greatness begetting. paltriness. Ali I here conies in the meaning of Sunday. It is a day of rest. It gives physical fest. You are a workman, or a doctor, cr a lawyer, or - grocer, or a seamstress ; gunday means a great deal to you ; or it should mean a great deal. On that day there should be a relax- ing of muscle. a soothing of nerve, a calm- ing of spirit, the soul must be.brought into communion with its Maker. It is only when oar lives are saturated with Gd that the wings of our spirit drop to calm repose ; hence the religions meaning of Sunday. In the open Church God meets man, and man's spirit is soothed, 'and calmed, and refreshed from life's fever. The Destiny of Teak.

It becomes more difficult to the clause in the leases forbidding the fell- b t ing of small trees is disregarded. The con- sequence is that in Cheingmai there is rea- son to fear that in five years the only teak left will be that which is too far from the water to be profitably worked, and in Lak- hoa the foresters complain that all the best trees have already been felled. The general opinion of teak merchants and foresters is that there are large quantities of teak 'in the valley of the Meikong, and that it could be floated down that river to Saigon, but none has yet reached that port. The mer- chants who work teak on the Meiyon com- plain of the timber stealing which goes on et the rafting station oil that river. The stolen logs are often fired with kerosene to deface the hammer marks of the owners. The present syatem of granting foreat ham. for three years only is said to be very pre- judicial to the interests of foresters. In, many eases the leases are renewed when they expire, but a forester who is not for- tunate enough to secure a renewal of his lease may find that at the and of three years his logs are still lying in the forest, as it takes at least three years (generally much longer) from the time the teak tree is gird- led, to fell it, lop off the branches and drag arid float the log out of the forfeit, and if the wording of the lease is strictly adhered to, ail logs lying inthe fooest, as well as girdled trees, become the property of the owner of therforest as soon the lease expires.
