The Saw Mills of Satan. ..It is as -impossible to run a saloon without ruining the boys, as it is to run a ea,w mill without using up logs."— Miss Francis Willard. The SIM mill of Satan ; the slum and saloon Where villians and felons are made, Daylight and twilight, midnight and noon, Driving their devilish trade. Then buzz', buzz, buzz, hum, hum, hum, They use lpour boys by selling them, rum. wAth the gates, how they haul them in, As they jam and jostle and crush ! Soaked and sodden and slimy with sin, To these terrible teeth they rush. Lads and lasses, the freokled and fair Robbed of their beauty and bloom, The child of vice and the child of prayer Drawn to the drunkard's doom. 0,borrible change ! from the mill he comes All scared and scathed and cursed, A raving wretoh flung out of the slums, The demon has done his worst. Boys from the school house, college and cot 8eized and sawn and slain, A license for this he bargained and bought To keep up the old refrain. Who licensed this ruffian to capture and kill The lad that was loved so well ; To cut him up in his murder milt To fuel the flames of hell. - By the love of your God and love of your boy, 0, freemen, we plead and inaplore, These sawmills of Satan, denounce and destroy To hear them, or fear them, no more Let them buzz, buzz, buzz, hum, hum, hum, Or use up our yOuths by selling them rum. may be seen standing talking wh a young officer who keeps his seat-ztafter a habit which has come down from Peter the Great. The Imperial family are not treated with so much deference as in other European courts. The men, how- ever, are deferential to ladieh. Speak- ing of Russian dinners, she says: "When a guest is announced, the host rushes forward and kisses her -hand, proceeding to introduce all the men present. It is then your duty, if a stranger, to ask to be presented to every lady, and this entails calling on them all, personally, next day.- Before din- ner the party pass into another room, where, at a table 'covered with every im- aginable hors d'oeuvre and liquors, they partake standing of the ‘Sacoueka,' as it is called—an excellent dish but a dinner in itself. The same may be said of most Russian dishes, which are a little too substantial. . . . In old-fashioned houses the guests, immediately after dinner, shake hands with the host and thank him for his hospitality." —The ladies "have much tine to edu- cate themselves, to read, to cu tivate the finer arts," and they avail thmalves of it, and speak many languages, are brilliant, and form the most :charming society possible. She says they dress well in a rich, heavy style, and are won- derfully fitted to have a commanding influence of the noblest kind in the sphere in which they move. Who tbat has seen the portraits of some of the patriot women exiled to Siberia, or read MisSO'Mara's Narka can doubt it ?— Amanda B. Harris in Wide Awake. Gaieties. —"Janet," said the clergyman, "1 have warned ye often; ye are owre muckie given to scandal.- Ye nun keep yer mouth, as it were, wibit and bridle, as the Scripture saith.." " Aweel, minister," replied Janet, "se-' I hae always keepit a watch on, my tongue." "Hoot, Janet! it maim he been a repeater then." —Jones Brown is rich and stingy. An acquaintance of hie met Brown's son the other day, and aid:s" Your father seems to have lost a good deal of money lately. The last time I saw him he was complaining, and saying he must econo- mise." " Economise? Did he say where he WAS going to begin ?" " Yes ; on his table, he said." Then he must be going to take away the tablecloth," was the filial declaration. —A highwayman visiting Glasgow for the first time sallied forth to see the sights of "ta muckIe toon." In the course of his perambulations he' came across a small wooden shed near aa un- finished building, with the inscription "3. Thomson, builder," on it in large letters. "Weel," said e, after a long and leisurelY survey of he erection, "if she cook:Ina pild a pettee hoose tan tat, she wadna pe sic a fule as to pit her name tiil't.' A Committee Man in School. A sub -committee of a School Board, not a thousand miles from Lynn, Massa- chusetts, were examining, a class in a primary school. One of the conamittee, to sharpen up their wits, propounded the following question : If 1 had a mince -pie, and should give two -twelfths to John, two -twelfths to Isaac, two -twelfths to Harry, and keep half the .pie myself, what would there be left?' There was a profound study among the acholars, but finally one lad held up his hand as a signal that he was ready to answer. 4 Well, sir, what would there be left. Speak up, loud, so that all can hear," said the committee -man. "The plate !" shouted the hopeful fellow. The committee -man turned red in the face while the other members roared eh:Q. The boy was excused from answering anymore questions. Gems. —" A strong life is one which com- mends itself, and does not give up the rudder to every wind of circumstance." —Whoever lives in criminal pleasures cannot endure that any one should dis- turb his miserable peace. —God will be worshiped in soberness, righteousness, and truth-, not by deliri- ous starts and cries of terror and false excitement.—[Hall. —There are not a few who have grown to depend upon the praise of men. It lays the basis of irregular work, done merely when men praise us; of jealous'y and friction; of forming the habit of doing work unconsciously from a wrong motive—namely, the glory of men; but, still more seriously, leading us to chooee only such kinds of work as shall attract notice. The Christian's glory is not to be measured by a man's estimate of himself. Neither is the Christian's true glory to depend upon the glory received from nien, but whether his work is done in loyal fidelity to Christ. "When you refuse, refuse finally. . 'When you consent, consent cordially. "When you punish, punish good-naturedly. "Often commend—never scold." - Changes That Years Bring A round. Just Married : Wiggins—Now, Bella, you better let me put these two hundred -dollar bills in your cute little pocket -book. You might want to buy some trifles, you know. Bella—Oh, dear! Willie, you can't think how horrid it is to take money from any man but papa. I shall never, never get used to that, I know. Wiggins—Nonsense, dearest! There you are now. To -Morrow I expect to find them gone. You must attend to thst so as to give me the pleasure of re- placing them. Bella—I shan't touch them. They can juat stay -in my purse for years and years. Married a few years: Bella—My dear, leave the ten dollars this morning. There's a sale of rem- nanta I would like to go to. Wiggins—Great Scott! More calla for money. How do you suppose 1 ani going to pay that everlasting plumber's hill? Didn't I give you a dollar last Saturday? A Pleasing Russian Picture. Lady Randolph Churchill in the "New Review" has a paper of informatien about Russian high life. She says: "All entertainments, whether public -or private, are extremely well done. The Russians, who dearly love light, make their houses on these occasions as bright as day, with a great profus- ion of candles ; masses of flowers, not- withstanding their rarity in such a rigorous climate, decorate every avail- able plage, a-nd the staircases are lined with footmen in gorgeous liveries." The furniture is substantial rather than decorative; there is no extreme in bric-a-brac; no evidence of esthetic or Japanese craze. She was entertained at the royal palace which answers to Windsor; this without architectural merits has seven hundred rooms, and endless corriders filled with "priceless oriental china, (cleverly arranged on the wails), tapestriea and treasure." The large hall is that of an old English coun- try house, rather than of an Imperial residence it was "Full of comfortable arm chairs and writing tables, games and toys—I even spied a swing. In this hall their Majes- ties often dine, even when they have guests, and after dinner the table is re- moved, and they pass the remainder of the evening there. This cosy departure from the ways of royalty is captivating-; she thinks one may marvel at it, in view of "the seven hundred rooms," but the Emperor and Empress elect to do it, they have simple tastes, and how homely it (all is ! We have heard so many somber and frigid things about the country of the auto- crat, let us make a note of this picture. As for etiquette, she says the Czar Ontario Finances. FROM THE TORONTO MAIL. The Mail has made an honest attempt to get at the facts concerning the fin- ances of the province. During the present session the Government and the Opposition have had more than one dis- cussion on this subject, the Government being disposed to magnify and the Op- position to minimise the achievements of the various treasurers since,Mr. Mowat took office in 1873. To the best of our belief the surplus on December 31, 1873, • e amounted )o nearly five millions, made, up as follows : sitting hens; I have to keep each one shut on the nest, else the laying hens get in with them, and in the squables for the possession of the nest some of the egge -get broken, and sometimes, when I don't get around to feed the sitters in time, they get impatient, and I stippose they try to get out, for I often find some of the eggs brokeit. This Spring I tried to move some of the sitters to the woodshed, and have them set there, but the first time I let them off to feed they went back to their old nests in the poultry house, and I had to bring them back. Now I keep them within bounds by a little covered pen in front of each nest, I put food and water into these pens, so the hens can eat when they want to, but cannot get away. Now you have the situation, pleaue tell me how to manage." The first -thing to do is to do away with the "bother" of sitting hens where you must either keep each one shut on the nest or else run the risk of the laying hens quarreling with the sitting ,ones and breaking the eggs. Such a state of affairs is not -pleasant or profit- able. Run a partition of lath or of fine wire netting across one end of your poultry house, and keep all your sitters in the place thus partitioned off. Par- tition off space enough so that besides room for the nests there will'be room to feed the sitters, and for a dust box, for the sitters are to be confined to this room during the whole period of in- cubation. Where a flock of 50 hens is kept, and the poultry raiser intends to let them all sit once in the season, the room should be large enough to accom- modate about half the flock at one time, for when hens have been laying pretty steadily all the fall and winter, sitters will come along "thick and fast" after the first ones appear. Out of a flock of 56 hens that commenced laying from the first to the middle of October I had over half sitting the first of the follow- ing March. Do notafear but there will be room enough in the rest of the house for the layers, for every hen that is moved into the sitting room lessens the number in the ether half; and besides at this time of the year the other hens will be out of doors the greater part of the time; anyway, they should have the privilege of going out, no matter what the weather may be. And even in January or -February, or any other time in winter, they should be allowed out in all weather, ,except a blinding, " bliz- zardly "snow storm, or a cold rain that freezes as it falls. Not a bit of danger of colds or ,.roup, provided their house where they must stay nights is. dry, free from drafts., and comfortable gen- erally. Arrange, the nests for the sit- ters on the floor around the room, against the wall, facing toward5 the middle of the rootn, leaving the space in the middle for a dust box and for feed- ing sitters.

A detail- ed account wss published the other day. There can be no doubt that this is a correct statement Of the surplus as it actually exists: At the same time Mr. Ross credits the province with items of Dominion account which were not included in the surplus in 1872 or prior to 1873. He makes the total amount due fron the Dominion to the province $5,126OOO, whereas in 1873 all that was claim d, including the value of the libr&rfy, was $2,800,000. e If this differ- ence f $2,300,000 is deducted from the surpl s of $6,427,000, we get $4,100,000 whicl may be regarded as the existing surplus according to the mode of calcu- lation pursued in 1873. Considering the large payments on capital account that have been made since then, that is a very handsome nest egg. The Oppo- sition knows its own business best, but in our opinion it has nothing to gain by assailing the financial management of the province Under Mr. Mowat. That is not the weak spot in his armour.

His mother lived to an extreme old age, tenderly cared for by him. He was never long absent from her, and his references to her in his letters to Dean Swift and other of his friends are uniformly tender and beautifuh - Her spelling was not of the best in fact the dear old lady did not know how to spell any better than the average Englishwoms,n of her day, who spelt very badly indeed. But her son knew how great pleasure it would give her to assist him in his work, to feel that she was of help t� him, and so he often gave her portions of his trans- lation'of the Iliad to copy out. The necessary corrections of her work 'gave infinite trouble to him and his printers, and really took more time than the copy- ing out would have done. But he had given her a pleasure, and no trouble was Fifty Hens. HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF THEM. By Fanny Field.—In Ohio Farmer. I . wish you would tell me bow to make the most Of my fifty hens. Have neither the time nor convenience for - raising broilers, but trust depend upon eggs, and what chickens I can turn off in the fall, for my profits. I have a comfortable poultry house large enough to keep fifty hens in winter. In front of the house, which faces the south, there is a yard 20x40, but if necessary I would have the yard made twice ae large. As our vegetable garden and house yard are fenced we can let the fowls and chickens have full liberty, except for a short time after my hus- band sows grain, plants corn, etc., My hens have laid fairly well the past winter, and now (March 10), I have nine hens sitting on thirteen eggs apiece, and four more broody ones which I shall set this week. Shall set the rest as fast as they become broody. I have raised chickens for a number of years, and generally have good luck raising them after I get them out of the shell. My greatest bother is with the too much for that. After her death he wrote to the painter, Richardson, to come and take a sketch of her in her last sleep. " I shall hope to see you this evening, as late as you will, or to -morrow as early, before this winter flower is faded," he writes. Dean Swift, who of all Pope's friends, was perhsps the most beloved by him, writes concerning her death, "She died in extremesold age, without pain under the care of the most dutiful son have ever known, or heard of,which is a felic- ity not happening to one in a • million." —F.

IN THE COUNTY. 1 Catarrh is a blood disease. Until the poison 18 expelled from the system, there cant be no eure for this loathsome and. dangerous malady. Therefore, the only frective treatment is a thorough course 'of Ayer's Sarsaparilla—the best'of all blood ptuillers. The sooner you. begin the better; delay is dangerous. "1 was troubled with catarrh for over two years. I tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi- cians, but received no benefit 'until I began to take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this raedicine cured me of this troublesome complaint and com- pletely restored my health."—Jesse M. Boggs, Holman's Mills, N. C. - "When Ayer's Sarsaparilla was rec- ommended to me for catarrh, I was In- clined to doubt its efficacy. Having tried so many remedies, with little ben- efit, I had no faith that anything would cure me. I became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. I bad nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system was badly deranged. 1 was about discouraged, when a friend urged me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and. re- ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh. After taking half a dozen bottles of this -medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood." —Charles H. Maloney, 113 River at., Lowell, Mass.
