CHILDREN'S ROUND TABLE.

WHY LITTLE RAY'S BANK HAD FAILED. A ClTr Boy'a Wisdom Hi. Xo9 Oat of Joint What ths Kid Ar Saying Som Knotty Problems For Solution. Youth'i Companion. It was under the plank of the treat barn floor, a place just larye enough to hold the three bushels of hazelnuts which Ray had picked and carefully hoarded there and this was the bank. "'If folks save only a little every year, they'll have money to spend when they ere old,' papa ears. So I'll juat not eat all of my nuts right up, and keep some for next winter," paid Kay, safely. So he and the squirrels worked together through the brilliant autumn weather. He was as bu?y as they and hoarded his winter etore as carefully, so that when the crimson and gold leaves turned to brown, his bank was full. Every day he went to peep into it, until be went with mamma to visit his grandpa's. They stayed two weeks, and what a long time it was to the little boy with a bank to look after! Grandpa's nice, sweet apples and grandma's brown, twiate! doughnuts didn't taste ha.f a good as they generally did. Grandpa and grandma, and all the uncles and aunts, worried and wondered, and Faid he surely was sick but then they didn't know about the looso plank in the great barn floor, and the etore of wealth under it, and what a care it was! It was the first thing Kay thought of when he pot home, you may be sure. And this is what he found there empty busks! As if eome one had filled his bank with Counterfeit money while he was away. His bank had failed! A family of chipmunks have been very busy here for a week," said papa. "I shouldn't wonder if they were the thieves, and I think that their bank is Under that old pine tree that I'm going to cut to-day." And there it was! Under the great, twisted roots he found another bank, filled to the brim with the wealth of his. So he was more successful than some bank officers, but he said, pravely, as he ftored his nuts away in a safer place: "After all, papa, I don't b'lieve banks are a eure, solid thinjr, do you? Some men are aa bad 89 chipmunks, you know. 1 b'lieve the best way is to "try and 'joy things as you po alone and make folks happy as you can, 'etead of putting lots of money in the bank to lose or be quarreled over when vou are gone." Wise little Kay ! A CLEVER BOY. Bow I.ittls Johnny ProTfd Too Much and Lost His Chicken. "Father," said a hopeful Fprijr, "how tnany fowls are there on the table?' "Why," said the old gentleman as he looked complacently on a pair of finely roasted chickens that were smoking on the dinner table; "whv, my eon, there are two." 'Two !M replied young smartness there ere three, pir, and" I'll prove it." "Three!" replied the old gentleman, who was a plain matter-of-fact man and understood things as he saw them; "I'd like to have you prove that." "Easily done, sir; easily done. Isn't that one?" laying his knife upon the first. "Yes, that's certain," said his father. "And isn't that two?" pointing to the second: "and don't one and two added together make three?" "Really," said the father, turning to the old lady, who was listening with astonishment to the learning of her son, "really, this boy is a genius and deserves encouragement. Here, old lady, do you take one fowl and I'll take the second, and Johnny may have the third for his learning." What ths Kids are Saying. "Mamma, Jimmie Brown hin hit me on de roe." "What for?"

The season at Bar Ilarbor is ending in a blaze of glory. This is the time of year when the hay ferer pets in its work. The season at Narragansett has been anaaally gay the past two weeks. A tennis tournament at the River?iew, Kankakee, was held last week. It is become a tag of war, figuratively speaking, between Lenox and Newport for social ascendency during the autumn months. A PIG chase furnished preat sport for the genteel folks at Richfield Springs one day last week. The chase took place &t the driving park. Sprisgbank, the charming summer resort on Oconornowoc lake, will hereafter be a winter resort as well. The principal attractions are ice yachting and good sleighing. Brilliant events at Newport last week were the ball given Tuesday by (Jot. and Mrs. Wetmore for their daughter. Miss Edith, who has just entered society; the grand Casino ball Wednesday, and the dancing party by Mr. and Mrs. loiter of Chicago on Thursday. Over ten thousand people witnessed the coachin? parade at Bethlehem in the White mountains recently. The prize banner for the coach containing the handsomest woman was awarded to the Highland house. T he banner for the coach coming the longest distance waved over the Crawford bouse coach. The Spring house at Block Island boasts the best looking crew of student waiters. There are twenty-two of them, mostly young men whose fathers are well-to-do. One of them is the son of a prominent Chicago lawyer. When not waiting on table they don tennis suits, and, ouUide the hotel, cannot be distinguished from the guests. A. W. DEITER of Brooklyn has purchased the Eureka Sulphur Springs property, near Saratoga, and will improve it at a cost of Jf2ö0,(kjO. The tract comprises sixty acres of park land. Among the improvements contemplated are a hotel, an extensive system of bath-houses and a swimming pool an acre in extent, fed by a clear water brook. Excelsior Borings, near Kamas City, is coming to the front as a popular resort Two years ago a large first-class hotel waa built and opened there, and has been well patronized. A short time a?o an artesian well was sunk by the hotel and a strong flow of salt and sulphur water obtained, similar in analysis to the blue lick water of Kentucky. The water is utilized in a swimming pool and bath-house system. Richfield Springs and Narragansett Tier are almost the only watering places now that are dependent upon hotel fisitors for their gayetiea. At Richfield, aaya the New York bun, the procession of events is always serenely regular and even. The colonies of visitors at the different hotels never clash, and no envy, jealousy or general uncharitableness seems to take root among them. At Narragansett, on the contrary, hotel life is not altogether a bed of roses. The crowds that gather at those somewhat illy regulated hostelries are not harmoniously constituted. They embrace a very mody collection of old, young and middle-aged, handsome, ugly acd medium, well-born, well bred and quite the reverse, respectable, doubtful and latitudinarian elements, in short, that can never amalgamate and never make a harmonious whole. Fire Island, for generations past a popular resort with New Yorkers, and of late years largely patronized by western people, is soon to have a great change come over it A moneyed syndicate haa its covetous eye on the island, and. if it seen res control, will wipe out of existence the old Surf hotel of happy memory; destroying the multitude of plank walks which extend from the house like spokes from a hub, leveloJthesanddunesand remove every landmark except the lighthouse. Then the syndicate will put its shekels into a hotel of mammoth proportion and magnificent appointments; cover a greater portion of the sand with earth and surround the house with lawn and shade trees: build innumerable bathhouses; introduce features to attract the multitude, and make for the island a uarne and fame such as the builders of the old Surf hotel never dreamed of.

SEPTEMBER FARM TALKS.

ABOUT HARVESTING THE CORN CROP. Farm Work In Late Summer and Early Fall Hints to Housekeepers Some Good Home Recipes A Hud get of Farm Kotes, Etc, No crop is given more labor during growth than corn, says the Philadelphia fiecord, and from the beginning of harvesting of the crop until it is stored in the barn, the grain and foihler requires handling several times. 'In fact the corn crop is a double crop, as the fodder is fully as valuable as the grain, if properly saved, and must be handled with a view of saving labor at all stages. Tne early corn requires planting, seedinir and frequent cultivation, while the matured corn entails the labor of cutting the 6ta!ks. shocking, husking and hauling. "When two or more of these duties can be done at one operation the cost of harvesting is lessened. In some sections the corn is cut and shocked in the fields, the work of husking being done after the winter sets in by handling the etalks in the shocks. It is not only a laborious operation, but one that exposes the farmer in winter, and the practice belongs to former generations rather than to this. Much of such labor may be saved by cutting down stalks so as to make roads through the corn for the purpose of usinz wagons. The corn so cut should be car ried to the barn and used, grain and stalks, as an early supply. The corn should then be pulled from the stalks and thrown in heaps to be loaded in the wagons. It can then be husked in the barn during rainy weather or other leisure time. The pulling off of the ears can be done so easily and quickly that a larpre field can be gone over in a day. After the corn is hauled off only the stalks and fodder will remain to be stacked or shocked, and all work in the field, except hauling the fodder to the barn, will be avoided in winter, while the damaere that usually happens to the cram from fallen shocks, dampness, mice, birds, etc., will also be avoided, which is a savins mote than equivalent to the labor of securing the grain. In this manner the erain is at once removed from the etalk, and thereby kept dry and protected from cold. It Will cure 'better, and be more palatable to stock. It is as important to store the fodder under cover as it is the grain, but the fodder is left in the field for convenience of husking, as it is a bulky crop in the barn and not easily handled; but if the grain is pulled before cutting down the stalks tne fodder can be stored in the barn without the necessity of handling it a-ain except to feed it to stock. Stored as soon as it is cured, and when in a bright, clean condi tion, it will be found more acceptable to stock and le more valuable for feeding. It can be passed through a fodder-cutter, cut, the stalks shaved or crushed (if suitable cutters are used), and the work of harvesting finished before winter approaches. Farm Notes. Do not feed the soft corn to the pigs yet Give it to the hens to rick over. This is the season for hatchinc the bantam chicks if you wish them to be as small as possi ble. f lover hnv can be used to advantage as sum mer feed if the crop is large, llay should not be sold, but fed on the farm. Runninsr roses must be tied up to the sup ports as fast as they 6end out shoots. They do not climb, but must be tasteneu in piace. Dahlias fall to the ground if the growth is rank. To crow them properly they should he planted in clusters, w ith a wire on the outside. As soon as the peach and pear crops are off cultivate anions the trees to kill out the ?rass and weeds, in order to save labor next season. Next month lawn grass seed may be sown for the spring crop of lawn grass. Spade the ground well and rake the seed in, but cover very lightly. As soon as the gweet corn becomes too hard for family use the stalks should be cut down, aa the fodder is then in the best possible condition for stock. In savin? tomato seed eelec the largest, smoothest and ripest specimens, and reject all that are not solid. I?y so doing they will improve in quality each season. Do not store beets, carrots and parsnips until the weather becomes quite cool. All root crops can endure a light frost, and keep best when stored late in the season. For roofs that are not very steep tarred paper is better than shingles, but shingles should be used in all cases where the roof is steep enough to allow the water to flow oil quickly. The bush Lima bean has been tested this season. While it has the bush habit, and requires no poles, yet it lacks the quality of the large Lima. It is also small, and can be best used as a bean for soup. ' Turnips should be harvested by pulling them up. Do not bruise them if it can be avoided. Cut the tops away from the bulbs and feed the leaves to stock. Let the crop remain in the ground until late before harvesting. Moulting hens should he given a feeding of linseed meal twoor three times a week. If fed exclusively on corn or wheat the hens will become debilitated, and droop. A mess of chopped meat occasionally is also excellent. Where rag weeds have taken possession the crab gras has been kept down. The crab grass grows best in very warm weather, and on ground that has been cultivated. It throws out lartre roots, and does more damage to young plants than weeds. The horse-troutrhs and barn-lofts are no places for the hens. If hens are allowed to make nests in the stables they may not only create filth therein, but also carry lice in with them, as nearly all kinds of fowls are afflicted with lice at this season. Late in the fall, after the grass begins to die down on the lawn, apply a liberal dressing of ashes and lime to the lawn. On light soils a coating of manure should be spread over the lawn, to remain during the winter. In spring rake it on". At this season the farmer should haul to the barn or some suitable place a large supply of dry earth to be used during the winter, it is excellent as an absorbent of liquid manures, and largely assists in disinfecting the stalls. As a cheap home-made paint for barn roofs make a mixture of red oxide of iron and fish oil. It is not as durable as good paint, but serves well to give a bright color to old roofs and buildings, and will last two or three years. It should not cost over 50 cents a gallon. The old horse is safer and better for the use of the younger membera of the family than youneer ones, but for general farm worn a horse hould be young and strong. During the summer, when the work is very heavy, the horses should be fed three times a day and given two hours rest at noon. Bran is one of the best foods for cows that are expected to calve in a month or more. Bran abounds in phosphates, and will largely contribute to the growth of bone of the embryo calf. Many cases of abortion in cowa arise from lack of a proper supply of the necessary food elements that support the dam and young. In the attempt to keep potatoes, turnips and other root crops the farmer gives too much protection against the cold. The cellars, pita or bins should be constructed in a manner to retain an even temperature if possible. Heat sometimes does more injury to such crops than cold. Sweet potatoes should be kept at a temperature of about sixty-five degrees. White potatoes and turnips keep best at about forty degrees. Dalmatian insect powder as a remedy for the cabbage worm has been tried this season with success. It is dusted over the plants occasionally with a dnsting-box or blown from a small bellows. A solution of a tablespoonful of saltpetre in a gallon of warm water sprinkled over the cabbazes once a week haa also been a valuable remedy, and the work of applying it is not laborious, as a watering-pot can be used. A correspondent asks a remedy for the prevention and cure of distemper in pigs. Distemper is a disease that seldom attacks pigs. The difficulty is probably due to dampness in the quarters, being a cold. Give each pig a pint of linseed meal daily in the food, the food slightly salted. On the bottom of the water-

trough pour a gill of wood tar. Keep the quarters dry and avoid draughts of air on the swine. II the difficulty is severe give a teaspoonful of tar by forcing it in the mouth. Oxen are serviceable on large farms, and also in those sections where the roads are nearly impassable in winter, as they can travel where a horse cannot venture. They can be bred for the purposes desired by judicious selection of the best breeds for producing quick-draught oxen, the Devon breed being superior to any other. A Devon ox will bear the heat well, travel at a rapid gait and endure fatigue. A cross of the Devon with large native stock also produces excellent oxen, if the male calves are retained for that purpose.

Some Good Itecipes. Iced Cake Make a delicate sponge cake and bake in a deep, square mold; make frozen custard.

Try it at once, aud then see if the school-kitchen learning has not gotten several steps in advance of your old methods Wide Avake. Hints to Housekeepers. A little gam arabic imparts a gloss to ordinary starch. To clean steel, rub the article with a piece of wash leather dipped in kerosene. A good egg has a clean, healthy-looking shell, while a bad one has a dull, porous-looking shell. Cake is baked when a fine splinter of wood will pass through without any of the cake adhering, and not until then. When papering a room, a small apartment can be made to appear large by being covered with a paper of subdued color without any particular design. When ivory becomes discolored it may be restored to its white color by being soaked in water, and when wet exposed to the action of the light while shut up in a well-closed glass case. If, before grinding the morning's cofl'ee, the berries are heated for four or five minutes, or nntil they take on a darker shade of brown, the flavor of the corlee will be much improved. If the varnish on the wook-workor furniture is changed in spots to white from drops of cologne, of bay rum, or from heated dishes, it can be changed back by lightly rubbing the spot with a cloth wet in camphor. Articles made of ivory should not be exposed to heat or dryness. They should never be exposed to the direct rays of a hot sun, or placed in a closet near or under a fire, as they are very apt to split under such circumstances. To prevent tin from rusting, rub fresh lard over every part of the dish, and then put it in a hot oven and heat it thoroughly. Thus t rested any tinware may be used in water from rust indefinitely. Scissors should be kept in good order. It is a mistake to use old scissors, which have become nicked at the edges, for trimming lamp wicks. This is frequently the causa of uneven wicks, which smoke the chimney and give a very nncertain light , A sponge is excellent for washing windows, and newspapers will polish them without leaving dust and streaks. Use a soft pine stick to cleanse the accumulations of dnst from the corners of the sash. Ammonia will give the glass a clearer look than soap. If your sewing machine needs cleaning, oil all the bearings with kerosene, used freely. Bun your machine fast for a few minutes unthreaded, then wipe oä clean; oil with machine oil, and you will be surprised to see how easily it will run and how clean it will look. Stone jars in which lard has been kept, and greasy pie plates, may be cleansed by putting them in a kettle with ashes or sal-soda, covering them with cold water, and allowing them to boil slowly for two hours. Let them cool in the water. To clean and tighten cane-seat chains, turn up the chair bottom, and with hot water and a sponge wash the cane work so that it may be thoroughly soaked. Should it be dirty use a little soap. Let it dry in the air, and it will be as tight and firm as when new. Regan To Doubt III in. IPuck ; "You doubt me!" he exclaimed.

HAYTPS EXILED PRESIDENT.

Legitime, With nil Family, Arrives la New York En Konto To France. New York, Sept. 5. Legitime, ex-president of Hayti, arrived this morning on the Ward line steamer Manhattan. He was accompanied by his family and several officers of his army. Besides his party, there were only five passengers on the steamer. The Uaytien party were transferred from the deck of a French man-of-war to the Manhattan at Santiago. The voyage to this city waa a very pleasant one, and the exiles were in excellent spirits. Their belongings consisted of twenty-two pieces of baggage and three little terriers. Ae soon as the Manhattan had made fast to the dock at pier 15, she was boarded by Consul Gen. Weslander of Hayti and Stephen Preston, minister, who were followed by half a dozen reporters. Legitime and his family were seated in his cabin ail prepared for shore. The ex-president looked tired and worn out and his eyes were bloodshot. His broadcloth Prince Albert coat was dusty and wrinkled and hjs high silk hat was lusterless. The attire of his staff was similar to that of the ex-commander. Legitirue's daughters are very handsome children with the complexion of a mulattos. While their father is coal black, Madame Legitime is a fine looking, portly woman, not so dark as her husband and well powdered. The ex-president would talk but very little, but he made a few epigrammatic remarks which were interpreted for the benefit of the reporters. "My people called me, and I came," he said. "They deposed me and I left, not because I was compelled to, but to avoid further bloodshed. On Saturday I shall go to France, where I will remain a short time. I may return to Hayti, as a private citizen, or I may go to Gienfugoes and establish myself in business." Legitime would not talk at length, and he was excused by the Uaytien consul, who said he was not disposed to talk at any very great length, as he did not feel well and wanted rest. Regarding the circumstances of the rebellion, Legitime would not say anything, and when asked if he would 6ay that no prisoners were executed at his command, raised both hands and exclaimed in French: "Can I say the sun is not shining now?" It was almost 12 o'clock when four carriages drew np to the dock almost alongside the vessel. They were for the exiles; and as soon as the people were notified they gathered up their traps, and leaving the vessel were bundled into the coaches and driven at a rapid pace to the Hotel Martin, in University place. On Saturday he will take a steamer for Havre. He de sired to go from one steamer to the other so as to avoid remaining in the city, but the French steamship line would not permit it. and he waa compelled to take apartments at the hotel. THE OLD LOG COLLEGE. A Celebrntlon Commemorative of the Founding: of the Presbyterian Church. Loo College Grounds. Pa., Sept. 5. The "Old Log College" celebration, under the auBpices of the presbytery of Philadelphia, North, was held to-day on the old Tennent farm, near Hartsville, Bucks county, Pennsylvania, where the college was originally located. The farm is about twenty miles from Philadelphia. The exercises of the day are really commemorative of the founding ot the presbyterian church in the United States. The log college was established in 1726 by William Tennent and flourished until 1742, when Princeton college was founded, and it may be said that the Princeton institution of learning sprang up from the primitive college established by Tennent. Early this morning President Harrison, accompanied by P. M. Gen. Wanamaker, Mrs. Harrison, the He v. J. W. Scott aud Private Secy. Halford drove over from Jenkiatown, Mr. Wanamaker's country home, where the party had pent the night. The president was given a most hearty welcome. Gov. Beaver, who was also one of the party, came in for a generous ovation. The exercises of the day made a long program, including addresses by the Rev. J. K. Turner of Martinsville, Pa., descriptive of the founding of tho log college and the useful career of its founder; by the rlev. IL M. Patterson, 1). I). LL. I), of Philadelphia, editor of the Vreshytfrinn, on "Log Colleee Evangelists;" by the Rev. Dr. Murray, dean of Princeton college: by the Rev. Richard Mcllwaine, I). D. Iii I)., president of Hamden Sydney college, Virginia, on "Imluence of the Log College in the South." At the conclusion of the Rev. Mr. Mcllwaine's address President Harrison was introduced and spoke briefly. At the conclusion of his remarks the president and party were escorted to a special tent prepared for them, where a bountiful lunch was spread. The lunch was entirely informal, and at its conclusion the president, Mrs. Harrison, and the Rev. Mr. Scott entered their earriaire'and started back to Mr. Wanamaker's at Jenkintown at 2: iO o'clock. The Rev. Kbenezer Erskine, D. D., of Newville, Pa., delivered an address on "Presbyterians of the Cumberland Valley" at the afternoon session. Miort addresses were also made by Gov. Heaver, P. M.-Gen. Wanamaker and President Knox of Lafayette college, which closed the day's exercises. The attendance is estimated at 2.,ws. Betrayed by Her Cry. Lawrence American.
