S. L. Harvey, of Greenville, Pa., met with a singular accident. He had boiled son*ehestnuts. After taking them from the-pot ho notired cold water on them and immediately placed one in his mouth flr tlie purpose of breaking the shell.

They were talking about the weight ov different individuals in a certain family and the daughter's young man, who waf present, spoke up before ne thought, and said: "I tell you that Jennie.ain't, sc very light either, although she looks so.'' Ana then he looked suddenly conscious and blushed, aud Jennie became absorbed in studying a chrotnoon the wall. "Tommy, my son, fetch me a stick of wood." "Ah! my dear mother," responded ho "tho grammatical portion of your educa tion lias been sadly neglected. Yoi should have said: Thomas, my son, transport from that recumbent collection of combustible material upon the thresh old of this edifice, one of the curtailed excresonces of a defunct log." "What does your husband do 7* nsked tho census man. "Ho aint doin' nothing at this time of year," replied the young wife. "Is he a pauper?" inquired the census man. She blushed scarlet to tho ears.

A clergyman, talking to some youngsters on a coming vacation, and diverging into the necessity of kindness to animals, incidently remarked: "Boys are often cruel to frogs and toads. I remember, when a boy, of wickedly filling up a toad with fire crackers and then lighting the slow match." He was horrified to see this remark received with the liveliest emotions of interest aud delight, and utterly prostrated as he passetf out at hearing one urchin say to another: "By ingo. that's a new note. Won't we have in blowing up the bull paddies down in the meddor!"
Storing Sweet Potatoes.
If you wish to keep sweet potatoes until spring in large quantities, a house especially adapted to them, and which may be kept of an uniform temperature, must be built Sweet potatoes if kept much above 60 degrees will sprout, and if much below this temieratiire they will rot What is essential is absolute dryness, and a heat such as we have indicated. In houses built for the purpose they are packed in dry, clean sand, regularly in bins. Thus served they may be kept for six or eight mouths.
For family use, the potatoes should be dug when the weather is dry. Let the potatoes become dry after digging, cany carefully, without bruising, to a room that Is airy and will sot freeze. Pack nicely in barrels, and run the barrel full of air dried sand, or pack in buckwheat hulls. The principle is exclusion of air, and dryness. They may stand thus until the nights become pretty cold, or until the thermometer sinks in the room at night to 45 degrees. Then remove them to a closet or place where the heat may be governed as before directed, and use as wanted. It should be unnecessary to state that if the vines have been killed by ftowt and the potatoes remain in the hills, they will not keep. In case the vines are touched with frost they should be cat early the same morning next tho ground, and a spade full of earth thrown over the top of the hilL They may then remain safely so long as cola nights do not intervene. Potatoes for long keep*! Lng should be ripe, and be dog without' the vines having been flroeted.
When you see a man who parte hk hair in the middle like a amsibie woman, and his wife parts herii lopsided like a sensible nun, yon can safely bet tnat the wife doesn't hangout the cloihec line, or the clothes, or get the kindling wood: and also that she doesn't retire to bed first on a winter's night, and nover gets np first in the atoning.

Employment.
The following sentiment was uttered by Daniel Webster in a speech in the United States senate: "Sit, I say it is employment that makes the people happy. Sir, the great truth ought never to be forgotten it ought to be placed on the title-page of every booK on political economy intended for America, and such countries as America, It ought to be placed in every farmer's' magazine. It should be proclaimed everywhere, notwithstanding what we hey of the usefulness—and I admit the high usefulness of cheap food—notwithstanding that, the great truth should be proclaimed everywhere, should be made into a proverb if it could—that when there is work for the hands and brain there will be work for the teeth. Where there is employment there will be bread. And in a country like qpr own,' above all others, will" this truth hold good—a country like ours, where, with a great deal of spirit and activity among the masses, if they can find employment, there is always great willingness for labor. If they can obtain fair compensation for their labor, they will have good lupuses, good clothing, good food and the means of educating tlieir children from their labor, that labor will be cheerful, antl they will be a contented and happy people."
