TniNGa THAT DON'T DAY,—,11 does
iiot pay to have ten amara, intent.
gent boyo turned into hoodlums
and thieves, to enable one man to
lead an easy life, by selling thew
liquor.
It does not pay to have one thour-
and homes blasted, ruined, defiled,
and turned into hell's of disorder
and misery, in order that one whole-
sale doaler shall amass a fortune,
It does not pay to keep six thou-
sand men in the penitentiaries and
hospitals, and one thousand in the
lunatic asylums, at the expense of
the honest, industrious taxpayers,
en order that a few rich capitalists
may grow richer by the mannfao
Lure of whiskey.
A saloon keeper Bold a man a
pint of new rum, making fifteen
oente clear profit. The man, under
the influence of drink, killed hi:
con -in-law, and, in his apprehen•
cion, confinement in jail, execution,
eta, post the county more than one
thousand dollars, which temper-
ance men had to earn by the sweat
of their brow. It dons not pay.
The loss anstained by society,
morally and financially, the sorrow
and suffering, the misery and desti•
tution, produced and augmented;
and what is produced infinitely a
greater consideration than all else
—the destruction of soul and body
-the inevitableresult of using and
trafficing in intoxicating liquors—
theee all attest the truthfulness of
the verdict : It does not pay.
Reader, it does pay to lead e
temperance life, to be an honest and
upright citizen, to exert a pure and
Lely influence, and to honor God by
ri:lateens use of all Ria gift. We
beseech you then, for your soul's
este, and for the sake of suffering
Humanity, to "touch not, taste not,
handle not the unclean thing."
BEEHCER's WISDOM.
Every farm should own a good
farmer.
A man never has good luck who
has a bad wife.
The masses against the classes
the world over.
A man who does not love praise
is not a fall man.
A man must ask leave of hie she.
mach to be a happy man.
It takes longer for a man to find
out man than any other creatures
that is made.
Flowers are the sweetest things
that God ever made and forgot to
put a soul into.
A man without self-restraint is
hke a barrel without hoops and
tumbles to pieties.
'Whoever makes home seem to
the young, dearer and more happy
is a public benefactor.
The greatest event in a hen's lite
is made up of an egg and a cackle.
But eagles never caokle.
A proud man is seldom a grate-
ful man, for he never thinks that he
gets as much as he deserves.
That cannot be a healthy condition
in whioh few prosper and the great
mass are drudges.
Communities are blest in the pro.
portion in which money is diffused
throught the whole range of popula-
tion.
Gambling with cards or dice or
stocks is all one thing—it is getting
money without giving an equiva-
lent for it.
Newspapers are the echoolmas,
tees of the common people, That
-endless book, the newspapers, 18
..our national glory.
One of tho universal tendencies
of the human mind, fundamental
and universal, is the love of other
people's private affairs.
This es a good world to sin in,
.but so far as men are concerned it
ie a very hard world to repent in.
3t is a bitter world ; it is a cruel
world.

Thin out the small fruit.
How to use pyrethem : Use a
tablespoonful to two or three gal -
lone of water, and drive it on the
plants with a syringe Or force -pump.
'The pyrethrum soon loses its
strength if exposed to the air, and
it must therefore be kept closely
corked, both by the druggist of
whom it is procured and by the
gardener who :see it.
W. B. Munroe writes that by con-
tinual eelectiou of eggs for hatching
from his best laying hens, he has
produced a strain of fowls that lay
'all the time.' He selected Wyan-
dottes as a foundation, watched for
the best layers, and used their eggs
for setting, Why not develop more
of these laying strains ? We want
eggs for profit.
There is no reason why a conn -
try home c.hould not ho a pinue of
pleasure and contentment to every
member. There is a froahness and
freedom in harm life that cannot be
enjoyed when a person is surround-
ed by brick walla. With a pleas.

In ming Paris green fur sprit ying

which is about the same, by a more
definite measure, ae is rounded tea•
spoonful to a two gallon pail of
water ; or cue part in 700 Some
plants will bear more than others,
and it is well to try different degrees
of strength in a small way, ou t'a•
