YOUNGSTERS' ROUND TABLE

LITTLE FOLKS WITH BANK ACCOUNTS Th Way the School ltankinf Sjitem Works Other Stortea For the Juveniles An Vnkind Act A Settler For Anntjr Knotty l'roblemi, Etc. Since the introduction of the school banking system in Long Island City, Bays the New York ,Vun, the candy stores in the vicinity of the schools have been doing lees business. The collections are made every Monday morning immediately after the opening of the school. The first question asked by the pupils of each other when they meet on that morning is "How much have you pot?" There is a chattering and Lobbing up and down of heads as they open their hands to one another, some disclosing half dimes, others dimes, and the more fortunate ones silver quarters. Each one has a card on which the deposits are credited. A tap on the bell and the excitement in the room subsides. The teacher gets out the roll book, and, as she calls the names, the pupils call out the amounts of money they want to deposit, each in turn stepping up to the deßk with money and card in hand. The teacher takes the money and records the amount on the pupil's card and in her own Look. After the money has been all collected, each teacher 6eals it up in an envelope, with the amount, number of the school and the teacher's name written on the outside. It is then handed to the principal, who deposits tho whole in the bank. Under the present system about ten minutes are consumed in making the collections in each school. During that time the children are overflowing with excitement and curiosity. In answering to their names they modulate their voices in proportion to the amount of money they have to deposit. As five cents is about the average deposit the pupil utters the words in the usual tone. Ten cents, and the voice is raist-d a pitch higher. Twentyrive cents, and he awakes an echo, while the other pupils regard him with admiration. The pupil who succeeds in raising fifty cents, or possibly a dollar, luring the week is looked upon by his admiring friends as a future Vanderbilt. "Fifty cents," answered a curly-headed boy as be almost ran up to the teacher's desk and handed her the monev and his card. "I farned that all myself. I cut wood, carried in the coal and ran errands for it." "I'seonly dot free pennies dis time," paid a little flaxen-haired, blue-eyed girl who could scarcely reach up to the desk as she handed up her money and card. "I'se washed the dishes and minded the baby." "A six-year-old girl came shyly up to the teacher's desk and as she laid down ten cents and her card, she whispered in her teacher's ear: "Here's ten cents. AVe's dot a new baby at home. Put down rive cents for the babv and five cents for me." The teacher took the money and made out a card with the new baby's name, and the little girl went back to her seat. In answer to his name a bright-looking boy came up from the rear end of the frchool. He had on a pair of muddy boots, and he succeeded in making himself heard. A home-made ball protruded from his jacket pocket. He put a bright silver dollar down on the teacher's desk with a bang. "Why, Johnny, you are rich this week," said his teacher, dancing up. "Yes'um," he replied. "Uncle Jim w as visiting us last w eek and I showed Lim my bank-book and he gave me a paper dollar. 1 got it changed for a silver dollar." Any one who wishes to is al'owedto deposit money with the teachers. As a resuit, there are a great many children depositing money who are not yet old enough to attend school. After leaving school some of the pupils still continue to send in money every week. There are many boys who work during vacation and save their money, whih they deposit to their credit at "the opening of the fall term. Almost every pupil who deposits money in the bank has some specific object in view. One little girl said she was saving money to buy a piano; another one to buy clothes. Another said she was saving to help her mother. A boy, who left school recently, and is working in New York, pends his teacher all of his spare money. He says he wants to cet money enough to enter college. Another boy, who has left Fhool and gone to work, has more than $200 in the bank, which he keeps adding to. He says h is saving money to go into business for himself. A teacher in one of the schools, who has a brother older than herself, who has not learned the benefits cf economy, has started a bank account for him, as if he were in her class. She now makes him deposit a certain amount every week. The largest amount deposited so far belones to an eleven-year-old boy, who has 5427.0 ) to his credit. This is an exceptional cas". The Spirit of Coquetry. (Boston ;i be. ' Edna had a little playmate, a fat, chubby little fellow named Moses. One day she left her playthings and went to her mother's room, but soon returned with ber new white dres partly on and the Fash that was pinned to it dragging on tho floor. "Why, Kdna," exclaimed her mother, "what mischief are you into now?' "Oh, nufiin, mamma; onlv Moses tome to we me and I fought I'd dress up." "No; I didn't come to see you, neither," paid little Moses, drawing his E.eove across his nose. "Well, I don't tare; I looks pitty all de Fame," said little Edna, as ehe flirted out the room. Severe Self-Judgment. Peoria Democrat A Pontiac littleboy was told at Snndaypchool that when he died he would leave Ins body here. After returning home he was much troubled in regard to it and ha questioned his parents. His mother explained by saying: "You will take all the good with you, but leave all that is nauzhty here below."

A FARMER OX FARMERS.

OTHER TOPICS FOR TILLERS OF SOIL Planting- and Cultivating Corn Painting Farm-IIouses Destroying the CurrantWorm Haying a Farm Recipes and Hints Notes For the Farmer. Times are hard, Bays a farmer to the Farmers1 Voice', everything a farmer hr.a to Bell is at the lowest possible price, while the necessaries that we must have remain, through the agency of our protective eystem, and the various trusts and combinations that the pernicious system has produced, as firm as a rock in their prices. The boasted conservatism of the American farmer as shown by the results of our late election has its entire foundation in the most supreme idiocy; thousands of farmers that were in debt and their families in want were so conservative that they thought more of the welfare of their party than they did of their own flesh and blood, and ehouted protection with tho loudest. Other thousands showed up their boasted conservatism in accepting a email pecuniary consideration for the franchise of American freemen, ranging generally from about two dollars to twenty. "What hopes can you have of educating Buch men to a proper knowledge of their condition ? In four years more under our present condition of taxation and contraction of currency, one-half of the present farm mortgages will be foreclosed, and the present occupants that were so industriously engaged in shouting protection at the last election will be thrown oat neck and heels; no more cumpassion will be ßhown them or consideration for their misplaced afToctions for the support of the 'Grand Old Party," than would be shown to eo many cattle. The bonds that tbey were bound with before and that could have been easily broken, have now become great walls of iron, cemented and strengthened by the strongest known thing in the whole w orld, the greed of man. This has .ill been accomplished by and with the willing consent of the laboring classes that must be the only sulferers of this whole pernicious system. The future of the laboring classes of America looks to me very dark ; it is apparently impossible to unite them, even for their own advantage. They continually disagree among themselves, leaving them at all times a natural prey for all the money sharks that are continually fattening on their indiscretions. Painting Farm Houses. American Agriculturist. One of our subscribers writes us that ho recently made a trip through eight states, and was impressed that the farm-houses might be made much more attractive and homelike by a more tasteful use of paint. Some farm-houses were not painted at all ; of those painted nearly all were white, with green or drab blinds, and usually the exceptions were rendered positively ugly by the paints used. Our correspondent thinks that white, with green blinds, can be improved upon, and doubtless he is correct; yet he confesses that ho has a liking for a white cottage almost hidden among the trees. The poi tshave had the same liking, and perhaps the artistic eye is displeased by the white farm-house because there is no green to relieve it. The subject ot house painting is penetrating into popular concern, and a number o! readers have complained to us that they could not obtain paints for outside work that would "hold their color;" that the houso of the desired tint when new soon faded. The light green, now quite popular, seemed most disposed to fade. This was the result of some fault in the material or in its application, for there are houses painted these tints that retain them. The cost of painting a house nicely is little, if any, more than of painting it in the conventional colon of farmhouses. Its tint must be suited to the size and situation of the house and to its surroundings, and such adaption may well receive the Etudy of home-loving people. Hints About Corn. Philadelphia Record. One object of a corn crop should ba to prepare the land for tho crop that is to follow, as the corn requires constant cultivation and leaves the ground clean and free from grass and weeds. The first preparation should be deep plowing and thorough pulverization of the soil, which permits of greater feeding capacity to the roots and allows the plants to go deeper down for moisture The adherents of deep and shallow cultivation of the crop, after it ia well under way, now aimit that the mode preferred depends on the kiud of soil and the rainfall. It is now known that tho corn roots should not be disturbed or broken, as is done by deep cultivation, but that when the season is dry the shallow cultivation, or simply keeping about an inch of the soil loose, conserves moisture and assists the crop by tho top soil serving as a mulch to arrest the process of evaporation. This wjll also keep down the grass and weeds. If the soil is lightly stirred after each rain a vigorous crop cannot be severely injured unless by a long-continued drought. Ituylng a Farm. The first thing to consider is the drainage about the dwelling house. No family can be healthy and happy unless its dwelling is situated on a spot whence the drainage is good. On not a few farms the dwelling has been located where the drainage is very poor and can be much improved. The person who located the house may not have cared for drainage, or may have thought of greater moment tho advantage of a location near a spring, or grove of trees, or something else. No fertility of the land or ''bargain" by reason ot low price will justify a man putting himself and family in a dwelling from which the drainage is imperfect. Sickness and death, with the attendant suffering and expense, will make the farm a bad bargain, no matter how low the price or fertile tho land. 3Ianares For Corn. An old piece of eod land plowed in the fall in order to destroy tho wrmsand allow the frost to pulverize it, and tho land well-manured and cross-plowed in the spring, if not too wet, is conceded to be the best for corn. The roots of the corn-plant interlace each other and cover the whole ground, feeding on all kinds of plant food that can be appropriated. Any kind of cheap fertilizer will give the plants a good send-off if applied in the hill. If the soil is rich and has been well manured the cheaiest substance to use in the hill is land plaster, as it attracts moisture and assists in disintegrating the particles of plant food already existing in the soil. As the sod begins to rot the corn-roots appropriates it and hasten the work of decomposition. Plant Early. The eooner the ground is ready and the 6eed is put in the better the corn will resist the drought, should it occur; but as no estimate can be made on the number of frosts that may occur later on, thare is more or less risk to incur. It is better to plant tho seed as soon as it may be supChildren Cry for.

posed safe to do so, and depend on replanting than to wait until danger of frost is gone. A late crop, if overtaken by a dry season, may not have time to mature before the fall frosts appear, but it is certain that even under the most unfavorable circumstances the fodder can be secured, which is of itself a very important item of the corn crop. Use seed that is from a tried variety, and give the young plants an early 6tart; Destroying the Currant Worm. V. 31. Ferir of Charleston, W. Va., writes to tho '. Y. World as follows: "Last summer I went out into the garden one morning and I found out the currant worm had attacked one side of a currant bush and one side of a gooseberry bush. I sprinkled the parte of both on which the worms were at work and then dusted on a compound of two parts of unslaked lime and one part of tobacco dust from a cigar factory, which killed every worm and stopped the injury. One application was sufficient." Farm Notes. Get your early pens and onions in. If deferred later the dry season may overtake them. If the frost is oat of the ground examine the peach trees for tho borers left over from last year. Every dead limb on a tree should be cut away, not only for the appearance of the tree, Lot to avoid the incumbrance. An application of fine air-slaked lime and wood ashes with 100 pounds of plaster per acre is a special fertilizer lor clover. Hake up the dried grass from the fields and burn it or add it to the compost heap. If left in the fields it will be in the way. A pulverizer should he run over a field after plowing. This will reduce the soil and reader the work of harrowing much easier. Early plants may be started in shells. 'Vhen ready to put outide, Bimply plant the shells in the cround. The roots of the plant will break them. The hills for lima beans may be prepared. Make theui rich and leave them UDtil the time arrives for puttinp in the seed. Then work the hüls over aiin and btick the seeds in eyes downward. If you have tried a watermelon variety of any kind do not change it, if satisfactory, as some kinds will do better on certain soils than will others. If more than one variety is raised they will mix. The Keifer pear is a strong and vigorous grower and seems to do well in all kinds of soils. It presents an attractive appearance in market, but it is not equal to the Bartlett or Clapp in quality. Plant-beds may be prepared for out-door plants, t'abbace and late lettuce may be sown. 1 here will be more frosts yet, but it will not injure late cabbage plants if a light cloth is thrown over them when they are very young. An old stiff broom used over the rows of strawberries at this time will clean them nicely, tine up the manure, and the rains will complete the work. This will prevent dirt on the strawberries when the picking season begins. On all beds for early vegetables the clods must be crushed. The sod for a gnrden should be line, especially where small seeds are tobe .ued. The rake is the best implement for garden U9e, and iu preparing the seed bed too much rakins; cannot be given it. Finely ground boue is better for very hpavy soila than superphosphates, but a proportion of superphosphates should be used also, in order to provide food early, as the particles of the bone are given oil slowly. About one rart of superphosphate and three parts bonemeal is an excellent mixture. After the strawberries are well under way the weeds must be pulled out by hand. It is not advisable to hoe or cultivate strawberries unless slightly. The top of the ground between the rows should be kept loose by flight stirring to kill the weeds and prevent loss of moisture during the dry season, but heavy cultivation is not desiraable. Henderson's American Fanners' Manual for this season contains a most comprehensive list of grasses, fojder plants, cereals and root c rops, together wita groat deal of useful information on agricultural -.subjects. It is the only catalogue of its kind published in this country. Mailed free to any address on application to Peter Henderson &. Co., New York City. The custom ot roughly preparing the land for corn is beint discarded. Experiments show that it pays to reduce the soil for corn to as fine condition as for garden crops. The land can not be worked over too thoroughly before putting in the seed. If the soil is well prepared the work of after-cultivation will be easier, and the corn will better endure the drought. Now that the weather is warmer do not feed the hens except at night, the object being to compel them to hunt and scratch for their food during the day. l?y so doing they will keep in better laying condition, the eggs wdl hatch better, and the health of the flock be promoted. The great obstacle to success with poultry is overfeeding, especially in summer. A pig farrowed in March or April, if kept growing from the start, can be made to dress 300 pounds at Christmas. But little grain will be necessary, as fat will be of no advantage. The first thing to do with a pig is to make it grow, bo as to secure the size and frame upon winch to place the fat later in the season. Clover is an excellent food for pigs after they are three mouths old. Seeds that germinate slowly, such as carrot, parsnip and beet, are sometimes killed by grass, owing to the rows becoming lost. To avoid this, sow radish seed lightly in the rows. As the radish soon fhows above ground, the row is defined, and the grass can be kept down with the hoe. I5ythe time the radishes are pulled out for use the seeds of the late-germinating plants will be up, and the rows can be then kept clean. Recipes and Home Hints. For mosquito or gnat bites an experienced traveler writes that he uses a solution of alum water as strong as it can be made, adding onefourth of aromatic vinegar and one-fifth of glycerine. Shake well before using. It will instantly cure the bite. He sure the water is at a boiling point before putting into it the vegetables to be cooked. If it is cold or lukewarm the freshness and flavor will soak out into the water. I'lace the saucepan over the hottest part of your stove, so that it will boil as quickly as possible, and be careful that the boiling process does not cease until the contents are thoroughly cooked and ready to be dished. Tomato SoupTake one pint of canned tomatoes. After cooking thoroughly adJ half a saltspoonful of baking soda. J?tir well and then rub through a strainer flue enough to keep back seeds. Boil half a pint of milk ; mix one teasnoonful of Hour with very little milk till smooth; then stir it into the boiling milk and cook a few minutes. Add a dessertspoonful of butter to the milk, then the tomato, and serve immediately. Season with salt and pepper. Cheese Fondu One pint sweet cream, one cupful grated cheese, three eggs. Beat the whites and yelks of the eggs separately; mix the cheese well with the cream and beat slowly into the yelks, season with salt, cayenne and black peppers, ami a tablcspoonful of melted butter; lastly add the well-beateu whites, and bake in a rather slow oven for just twenty minutes, be in careful not to open the oven door too soon, as the fondu will fall. iServe at once. Ginger Snaps One cupful of molasses, one and one-half tcaspoonfuls of saleratus, smooth all lumps out of this soda, then beat with the molasses until of a foam; now add one-half teaspoon ful of melted lard or butter, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of ginger aud one capful of sifted flour, beat well together; then add one cupful of sour milk (buttermilk is better, if obtainable), and more Hour until it is very hard; roll out as thin as possible and cut, aud then bake in a quick oven nntil brown. Scalloped Eggs Boil eight eggs until they are hard; let them get quite cold, but do not put them in water to cool them; take them out of the shells and slice them; butter a bakingdish, and sprinkle cracker crumbs over the bottom; put on this a layer of egg, and over it sprinkle pepper, salt, lumps of butter aud a few tablespoonfuls of cream; add another layer of crumbs, then of the eggs and seasonings till all are used up. Over all sprinkle cracker crumbs and a little grated cheese. Bake until it is a light brown, and serve at once. A Paper-Holder Take a broom-handle and saw it into a two-foot length, and paint it black. Into each end screw a medium-sized picture-knob and gild them. Suspend it by narrow scarlet ribbon, tying around the knobs and fastening each end with a tasty bow. Ilang the paper over this. If liked, the whole may be cilded or stained with any of the pretty stains so popular now, using a shade of ribbon that will form a pretty contrast, or a brass chain mar be used instead of ribbon. This Pitcher's Castorla.

makes a very pretty and unique holder, and is o simple in construction that any woman can make one. Mock Quail Cut some tender veal cutlets into very thin slices about four inches square. Take a half pint of oysters, drain and just scald he m over the fire; have ready two sweetbreads, boiled and blanched: chop these up with the oysters; add a cup ot cream, pepper, salt, mace and two tablespoonfuls melted butter; thicken with cracker crumbs till you can mold the mixture with your hands. Take the squares of veal, spread a thick layer of the mixture on each, and roll them up together with thread; stick two pieces of maecaroji in each roll to look like legs, loy on a greased paper and bake in a good oven. AVheu done cut the threads and serve. An old physician, being once appealed to for some general, comprehensive rule for the preservation of good health, replied: "Keep clean." Cleanliness, from a medical point of view, generally means the absence of noxious germs. The laity generally comprehend in the term freedom from foreign substances, while the psychologist and moralist have reference to the purity of the mind and soul. All these combined would form the first principle of good health. Freedom from all filth, with reference to the body and its surroundings, freedom from contaminatiou of mind and soul, would make the individual not only free from material pollutions, but would inspire him with a sense of cleanliness, a feeling of purity that would cleanse life and glorify the consciousness of living. MURDERED AT A DANCE.

Xenla, O., Torn Up Over a Tragedy Threats of LJ-nchtng. Xema, O., April 2. Special. A brutal murder was committed in Scheder hall, right in the heart of the city, this morning at 2 o'clock. Frank Lawrence, a well-known colored man, was giving a public dance. Quite a crowd was in attendance. About 2 o'clock Sherman Jackson, better known as "Bano," a bad colored man well known in police circles, went to the dance. He was very disorderly and Lawrence ordered him out He refused to go and, pulling a dirk, made a slash at Lawrence's throat. He missed him, but made another stab and buried the knife in Lawrence's groin, giving him a fatal wound. Not satisfied with that, he stabbed him in the breast, breaking the blade off. He then escaped. Lawrence was taken home, where he lingered until 10 o'clock this morning, when he died. The trouble grew out of an old feud, and Jackson had often threatened to kill Lawrence. Lawrence lived with a woman named Ada Tage, who was formerly Jackson's mistress, and he was very jealous. He was captured this afternoon in a house on E. Second-st., by Chief Ilarner and two officers. He was hid in a closet. In getting him out of the house the chief had to make a speech to disperse the crowd of two hundred men gathered for lynching purposes. Followed by the mob, they started for the jail. When in an alley leading to the rear entrance of the jail, the mob, led by Tom Lawrence, an uncle of the dead man, who brandished a big revolver, charged on the officers and seized their man, with cries of "kill him." The police were reinforced by SheritF Linkhart and peaceable citizens, and the mob was held in check for a moment, when the police, recapturing Jackson, ran into the jail and placed him safe behind the bar.?. The mob lingered some time around the jail, but were finally driven oil' by the police. The jail is guarded, and if the attacks threatened by Lawrence's friends are made it will result in loss of life. The excitement this afternoon has been intense. DUDES IN COURT. Twenty "Yoong Hloods" Fined For Witnessing a Prize Fight. Chicago, April 6. The twenty members of the First regiment, Illinois National guards, who were arrested last night while witnessing a prize fight between two members of that organization, were arraigned in the police court this morning. They stood before Justice Scully, snickering and hiding their faces behind silk hats and perfumed handkerchiefs, until the court was at a loss to know whether he was fining school girls or tennis players. Twenty pairs of rosy cheeks, as soft and creamy as though they had been bathed in clover dew every morning, loomed up in line before the court's desk, and their owners acted as bashful as so many young ladies in a broom drill. The court read the law to the young men and a cold shudder ran through the crowd when it was learned that every one was liable to imprisonment from one to five years in the penitentiary. The officer unrolled a bundle 01 material gathered from the floor at the hall. First was a Turkish towel, still wet Then came a pair of trunks, a long rope, a pair of rubber shoes, two pairs of twoounce boxing gloves, and finally a moistened sponge. "It was only a friendly boxing contest," said one of the men. "Did not Gaynor get his jaw broke?" asked Officer Tyrrell. "Yes." "Did not they strip and fight for a prize a medal or something?" "Yes." "Did not they go it for two rounds and then stop because Gaynor could not come to the scratch?" "Yes." "Well, if that is not a prize fight I would like to know it?"

To tick Editor Sir: A great deal has been said lately about the affairs of the Indianapolis insane hospital, and it has charged that Ir. Thomas was aware of the abuse of patients and still allowed those guilty of such cruelty to remain at the hoij.ital. Kow I know that Dr. Thoraas never allowed snch an offen without discharging the attendant. I was an attendant on one of bis warns for nearly three years, and time and again 1 have undreied patients for hiia to examine and see if ther were any bruiws on them (as very often patients will complain of ill treatment, when there is no truth in the report at all) and if be found any bruises, the attendant of the ward would have to explain how they came there, and if it appeared that the attendant was at fault, lie would )o discharged at once. lr. Thomas may have his fauts, but I never, in eiht years' exjerienco in asylum life, saw a phyrieian kinder to the inmates than lr. Thomas. lie would not ercu allow an attendant to speak disrespectfully to or of a patient. I can say that if all our physicians were as kind to the poor unfortunates as Dr. Thomas is, they would receive better care and attention than a (fd roanr do. I have no motire for writing this only in bclalf of Pr. Thomas, whom I know from experience (regardless of polities) is a true friend to the unfortunates that are placed in his care. t-wsnTille, Ind., April 3. Okoroe Hastik.

Consumption is a Scrofulous disease occasioned by a deposit of tubercles in the lungs the upper portion of them generally. As the tubercles enlarge they begin to irritate the lungs by pressure on the surrounding parts. This creates a hacking cough. At length nature, in her endeavor to get rid of the annoying tubercles, sets up an inflammation; matter is secreted and the tubercle is softened. It then comes to a head, or suppurates, and the matter is discharged into the nearest air tube. This the patient raises, which, for a time, aliays the cough, but as the air cells fill up with tubercular matter, the blood ran circulate but imperfectly through the lungs; hence it becomes more impure for the want of air, which lessens the power of nature to throw off the disease, until at last the disease becomes 60 general and the cough so great that hectic fever and night sweats intervene, with bleeding of the lungs, until the patient finally sinks. NOW PAD WAY'S tili OdlSdUdUllldll Resolvent.
