PIKE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, PETERSBURG. : : INDIANA. MOTHER THOUGHTS. Darning little stockings for a pair of tiny feet. As I sit beside the trundle-bed to-night; Darning little stockings, and thinking thoughts so sweet. Making mother-plans and wearing visions bright, Huirmlug, By. baby, by! For the stars are in the sky. And the lambs have gone to slumbor long ago, And th-' merry, sunny day Has Hidden itself away. So shut thine eyes and sleep. By, baby, oh I Oh! the thoughts thus como so freely, as swiftly to and fro O'oi the stocking small my busy needle tiles: From tho past and through the present to the future, bow they go. Coming back again to where my baby ilea In his dainty trundle-bed. Where the curly, golden head On the little snowy pillow finds its rest. While the moments each take wing, As my slumber-song I sing To my own wee birdiing in his easy nest. Oh I baby, could thy mother the future make for thee, How smooth the path thine eager feet should tread; The years which lie before thee, how happy they should be; How bright life’s skies above thy darling head. But oh I by. baby, by! We oan only, thou and T, Trust tho mercy which has given thee to me; As the dawn must follow night, f So will shadows change to light, And thy mother's heart will hold no fears for thee. —Main D. Brine, in N. T. Independent. A LIVING TOMB. "The Catacombs of Paris, ugh!” said my companion.'with a shiver of dread.' "" Why,” I said, laughingly, “ you speak as though you had been immured in them.” . “ And so I was for an actual fortyeight hours, which seemed more like forty-eight centuries to me. I don’t like to speak of it even at this remote period,”' said he, and he shuddered visibly. “ It’s scarcely fair to go so far and then fail to satisfy my curiosity after air,” I replied. "If you have been placed in so novel a position as your hint would imply, do manage to pocket your distaste of the subject, and give me the benefit of your experience.” "Well,” he said, after a pause, “it was in the year 185— I was a much younger man at the time, and adventure had not lost its charm for me. I was passing through Paris; when a friend asked me to join their partv to the Cataoombs. As it was a difficult matter even then to gain access to this part of the great city, I gladly accepted, thinking I would manage to combine business with pleasure by spending an hour in the underground insDec

non. and still leave myself time to catch the London train. I mention this fact as it 'illustrates upon what small hinges serious events turn, for if I had not said the folio wing words to the oabman who took me to the entrance, I should never have had to endure what I am about to tell you. These words were, ‘ If I do not return in an hour ’ you are discharged.’ So saying, I paid the man in advance for waiting, and followed my party to the entrance-door, which was of heavy wood. I had fancied that an hour’s exploration would satisfy me, and if I had a cab ready I could catch the one o’clock train, whereas, should I find the inspection sufficiently attractive to occupy more time, I would then defer my departure till evening. “Everybody knows that the Cata•combs of Paris were originally the stone mines which supplied the city’s budding material, so Paris, it has been aptly said, is built of her own entrails, “ A dismal, grim place are these c Paris .Catacombs—albeit monotonousWhen Napoleon, at the beginning of this century, decreed extramural interment, the bones of centuries were moved into the Catacombs, and millions of bones of dead French were carried there and fantastically arranged, so the visitor passes between two walls which seem to stare at him with a ghastly blind stare. The black gloom of the1 place; the mystery of its count- \ less and impenetrable ramifications; its numberless skeletons, grotesque and strange, that flank the walls and seem to stare and watch and follow you as you pass; the damp malarial breath of the vaults, intensified by the confined atmosphere; the wet rock below; the consciousness that you are cut off, as it were, from the rest of the world; if your guide takes a wrong turn out of the hundreds that present themselves you are likely to be irretrievably lost, as no sound you can utter can reach the upper air; all these considerations operate to make a visit to the Catacombs absolutely appalling, though this same feeling of terror possesses a fascination of almost unappeasable longing to penetrate further and further into the unknown depths. “ However, half an hour was quite enough to satisfy me, and I began to long restlessly to be off. Tpe rest of the party, however, were not so easily satisfied, and urged me to proceed with them, hooting at the idea of my being able to find my way back alone.

V " vv e eacn carried a uttie lamp, anil by the light of mine I consulted my watch, and finding I had still time to fit back to my cab and catch the train, asked the guide if I could not find my way back to the entrance. “ ‘Perhaps so, monsieur,’ he replied, ‘but I advise monsieur not to attempt “ So I lagged on in the rear of the party, still undecided whether to take the guide’s advice or to act out my impulse and leave, # “ We were passing through, many transverse passages, intersected at reg- \ ular intervals by smaller streets, courts \ and alleys, when, as the lamps of my companions crossed one of these intersectional cuttings, I noticed, a few steps ahead of me along the passage, an immense skull in which all the teeth were siogularly perfect and gleaming with a dazzling white. I went nearer to inspect the skull more narrowly, when, as I had my face close to it, a horrible rat, frightened at my presence, leaped full Ugainft my chest. 1 am almost ashamed to say that I was paralyzed for the moment and felt as though I had been shot We all have our antipathies, and my antipathy is rats. I abhor them, and the sudden appearance and touch , of this rat so unexpected must have caused me to faint “At any rate, when my senses came to me again I was utterly in the dark. A blackness that could almost be felt enveloped me On every side, while a dead silence pervaded everything. In a few moments, I think, Host consciousness again. I am not sure on this point, however, for it may have been minutea, or hours, when a slight mumbling overhead caused me to grasp the full truth of my position, as I recognized the rolling of a passing carriage over my living tomb. - > - • 0 “ That my friends were not near me waa certain. “Had they discovered my loss even? If they had, they would naturally look for me near the spot where they last saw me, and in that ease, why had they not found me, for I was still in the place where I had fainted? By degrees the horrible truth began to dawn upon ’ me; they had thought after oalling for me and receiving no answer that I had tried to make my way to the entrance, and when they had reached it, the hour having expired, the driver being gone, they had believed him to have taken me to the station, and so supposed me on my road to London. “It caused me no little effort to shake off the despair that this terrible knowl«dge forced upon me, and to try and

make myself believe that the alarm would be given before I had time to die of starvation in ray living tomb. But the prospect of a lingering death underground without food or water in a darkness that was maddening quite unnerved me, and' I felt above all things I could not remain inactive. Something I hi ft si do. What could I do? “Arguing first that inaction would kill me. ana that in the second place, the alarm once given, every inch of this subterranean world would be searched till 1 should be found, I knew it mattered little whither I might have wandered—it was safe "enough anywhere, and so I decided* at all nsks, to grope my way on. On rising and si retching my arms my hand encountered the wall of skulls, i and sank to the earth again. A fortunate diversion happened in mv hand coming upon some of the broken glass of my lamp—that had been shivered into a thousand pieces by my fall—-and the blood flowing from the cut caused me instinctively to bind my handkerchief, my cravat, my gloves, round and round the wonnd lest the blood should fall and attract the terrible creature that had brought me to this pass. “A second effort, and I conquered my aversion enough to be able to touch the dead about me with a certain calmness, and I began to move slowly on, not knowing what direction 1 was taking. “Remembering that I had entered the passage on my right, and that the skull was on the left, 1 turned my face around so as to bring the skull to my right, and when I had reached the entrance of the passage to turn to the left. By feeling 1 soon discovered the skull whose teeth had attracted me to my doom, left it on my right, and groped my way the few returning steps to the roadway, the angle of bones telling me when 1 had reached it. Immediately my highly-wrought senses perceived a change; the increase of temperature struck my right cheek. “Like a flash of light it went through me that it was a current of air from the outer world, and, if a current of air, it must come from an opening; that opening must be a door; then by following up this current I must ultimately reach the spot which it enters. “I turned my full face toward the current; I gasped, for I could perceive no difference of temperature; 1 rnddAny breath, pushed the hair from my torehead, shut my eyes, and still I failed \to detect the current. But on turning ihy cheek, there it was again. It required a contrast, as it were, between the two cheeks to ascertain the difference. I explained this to myself as one of the provisions of Nature to protect the nerves of the face in meeting the wind naturally—as in walking—it offers the minimum of nervous surface to its influence. As I stood sideways, the nerves of the face were struok laterally, and therefore more alive to a slight difference.

“All this gave me a fresh clew of ascertaining my wav, for I agreed that in feeling along the line of skulls, the side of each skua which received the current precisely as my cheek received it would necessarily, from its action, be dryer than the other. “ To my intense joy, it was as 1 thought. The right side of;the skull was smoother than the left, afid feeling along for twenty skulls, I found it so in each instance. “ I decided to move to the' right. I had become somewhat confused in the memory of the locality, but knowing there was more than one entrance to the vaults I huag firmly to tjae slender clew that seemed to connect me with the outer air. So I traveled on, on and on; stumbling, sometimes falling; sometimes rapidly, sometimes slowly; but ever on, for I must have gone mad ha.d I sat down and waited. How many miles I traveled thus l have-uevw been able to ascertain. It seemed many hundreds to me. When I came to one of the transversal cuttings I had several steps to make at random before I could reach or touoh the reassuring line of skulls again. The duration of these steps seemed as years in my agony, while my hears beat like a triphammer against my side. Sometimes I lost the current of air entirely, but I never failed to find ft again and to plod on. “ Sometimes I heard the number of vehicles overhead, more or less distinctly according to the depth of I the stone above me. I hailed this sound with intensest delight. Anything to break the ghostly silence that reigned around me, for even my steps seemed muffled, and I had learned to Walk without sound. On one dear occasion my heart beat s o fast I thought I should be strangled. 1 heard a voice. Yes, a bright^ fresh human voice caroling a hlithe song. I could see no light—I feared when it ceased that my overwrought nerves had deceived me and that I was the victim of a fond hallucination. But no, in another moment it broke forth again, brave and brisk. I could almost distinguish its words. How I lingered about that spot loth to leave the neighborhood of something'near and human. I shouted, 1 helloed, yelled, screamed myself hoarse, but no reply came. “However, I took heart from that moment. I concentrated my whole mind upon the current, and it grew stronger every hundred steps, until without the slighest warning, suddenly, abruptly, the line of skulls ceased, and I touched wood!

then have "When I realized that here, was the goal I sought, I must fainted once again. “I had known for man; thousand steps that I approached the exit, but when I touched that door ny joy was too much for me. "It Looked so dark beyond that I feared I had gone blind, but I broke the door, whioh was open lattice-work, and precipitated myself beyond, out, a wav from the tomb and thd dead behind me. out into the celestial glory of the gradually dawning light of day. Howl hailed that light;nowits exquisite rays streaming through the chinks of the outer doof pierced and irradiated my soul. “I hare no occasion to tell you how I hammered at the outer door and w as at last released by half a dozen gendarmes and a throng of curious passers. “This was not the gate I had entered. I had been immurea forty-eight hours, and all that l ime 1 had never once sat down. "I was ill for a long (time, of course, but, perhaps 1 am none the worse 'today for the distinction I olaim of haring touched more skulls than any other living man. At any rate, I never re gretted having tried to help myself, without depending on the chances ol being missed by my friends, whom I found all unconscious of the appalling' position in which they; had left me.” Plans on a Pear Tree. William M. Davies exhibits a cariosity in the shape of two plnms grown on a. pear tree which has not been grafted. Last summer the pear tree bore about a dozen peais. This year it bore none, but its boughs were intermingled with the boughs of a plum tree, which bore' considerable frnit. The bough which bore the plums mentioned had me leaves of a pear tree, but; the plums were genuine, and somewhat smaller than the ordinary Bleecker.—Utica (N. T.) Herald. —Chas. A. Dana, editor of the New Tork 8un, recently spent about 93,000 in the construction of a cave for the cultivation of mushrooms. He lias employed a professional mushroom-grower to take charge of It, and naturally anticipates, it may be supposed, after so liberal a pre vision, that the results will prove compensatory. <rii

Preparation of Land for Wheat. 1 hare given this subject much attention for several years, and careful observation and experiment have caused me to change many of my former theories and practices with regard to wheat growing. I will say nothing now on the general practices of farmers in prep ari ng their land for wheat, but Will give briefly a few hints gathered from my own experience. Old or worn land should be plowed deep—new or rich land shallow. I have found a light coat of any kind of manure applied to old land of great value. Only straw-stiffening manures can be used to advantage on new land. Hea vy crops of green manures should never be plowed under just before sowing, because its fermentation is death to the young wheat plant, and it will also prevent the firming of the soil, which is absolutely necessary in wheat land. The land must be' thoroughly worked down before the seed is put in. It has been positively demonstrated in hundreis of instances that the wheat plant will not thrive on rough, trashy, or halfworked land. If the land is very dry it must be harrowed, rolled and harrowed again, until every clod is crushed and the sod torn to atoms. 1 sometimes use a clod crasher made of two poles, six to ten inches in diameter and twelve to sixteen feet long, fastened close together with three or four cross pieces. With a team hitched to each end of this, a man can often do more effective work than with roller and harrows. Should the land be damp it can generally be got into proper condition with the harrow alone. The soil should be loose and fine as powder three inches deep, and firm and solid beneath that. »' _ If the land is properly prepared, the point of the drill will run about two and a half or three inches deep, and as smooth and steady as a hot knife through butter. The little ridges on each side of the drill-mark are the chief protection of .the plant against being thrown out 6y repeated freezing and thawing in winter; consequently great care should be taken not to ran anything over the land after the drill that will crash or level them down. I have seen wheat that was harrowed after being drilled that harvested only six bushels per acre; when closed alongside of it was another piece, drilled at the same time, that yielded twenty-six bushels per acre.

inree years ago a great deal ot wneat was killed by the severest weather we ' have ever known. A hard freeze of a few days was followed bv a thaw, and then a rain, which was followed by another hard freeze. This was repeated seven or eight times in succession. All wheat sown broadcast, and that drilled on rough trashy ground was thrown and washed entirely out and killed. Wheat drilled on well-prepared land was raised over half an Inch; but being in the little hollows—the drill-marks— and the land being mellow and free from trash, the rains would wash the earth down upon the exposed roots, and though we supposed it would be ruined, it weathered the storm and yielded eighteen bushels per acre. Long experience with wheat and close observation ha3 taught me: 1. That no coarse or heavy green manures can be used to advantage on wheat, unless applied and plowed under two or three months before seeding-time: 2. That fine concentrated manures applied on old land at the time of seeding will greatly increase the yield and quality, sad prove a good investment; 3. That it is better to sow wheat late, or not ■ow it at all, than to sow it on rough, trashy or unprepared land; 4. That with thorough preparation of land, careful selection and cleaning of seed, and proper and seasonable sowing, a good variety of wheat will not deteriorate in f[rndity~or qiitratity within ten-years'" time, and that it is one of the surest and best paying crops a farmer can grow.—Cor- Examiner and Chronicle. Keeping Celery. From time to time we have printed onr mode and the modes of others for keeping and blanching celery through 'the winter. We have covered it carefully in the rows in which it grew, and found it to answer very well, when applied to that which is intended to be first used. We have found it to answer better to take it up and set in rows close together, leaving only space enough to prevent the plants from touching, and packing the earth firmly around them, leaving ohlv an inch or two of the tops Sticking out, then covering either with boards, placed so that the water cannot penetrate, or with cornstalks thickly bent over and fastened. Drains should be dug around the celery to carry off the water. We have kept it in this way until May and well-blanched. It is well known that stalks of celery stood in spring water under a shed, where it is not likely to be frozen, will oecome perfectly white and tender. But it is only a few persons who eau have the spring water at hand for this use. We have known celery to be perfectly blanched and preserved by packing the roots in wet earth and keeping them in a cellar. Large boxes were obtained and a few inches thick of earth placed on the bottom and made as wet as possible. The plants were then packed upright, side by side as close as they could stand, until the boxes were full. The upper leaves were of course exposed, ana attempting to grow a little by the encouragement given to the roots by the wet earth, caused growth enough to blanch the whole. There is an advantage in this over keeping it in the cellar, as many do, where it retains its greenness all winter, and is scarcely fit to eat. But we prefer the out-door plan, when it is well-done.—Germantown Telegraph.

Economy on the Farm. The period of tow prices through which farmers have passed during the past few^ears have taught many of us valuable lessons in economy. It has shown us more clearly than we have ever seen before the importance of practicing careful economy in all' the affairs of life. We mention a few points where some farmers may practice greater economy in their management and thereby save what otherwise might suffer loss or go to waste altogether. One of the most common was tes about a farm is in relation to the various home-made farm fertilizers. Badlyconstructed and improperly-managed barnyards are a source of great waste to fertilizers on some farms. Manure heaps that have been allowed to heat until they have become seriously injured by being “ fire fangod” are quite common. Great waste in fertilizing materials may be traced to onr pig pens an& hen roots from which might be gathered with the right care and management large quantities of valuable manure that would catibe our fields to yield better crops and hence more profit. A compost heapshould be made in the vicinity of every house and garden. It should consist of a large box, bolding fifty or more bushels, made without a bottom. This box should be a receptacle for grass and weeds t&kdn from garden and all of the large class of substances which are usually thrown from back doors and door yards. In this way a good load of valuable manure may be collected each year which would otherwise be worse than wasted, for when kitchen slops, etc., are thrown carelessly about they must needs pollute the air with noxious’odors and cause much unpleasantness. —Philadelphia Times. __ It is claimed that the professions in tbs South are overcrowded with young men.

USEFUL AMD SUGGESTIVE. —Keep a blank book with a thick cover in the kitchen, and, copy any bits of information that may be likely to be of use sometime. Be sore and write in a large, dear hand. —It has been found from analysis that ten tons of small sugar beets, weighing one mid one-third pounds each, contained as much solid matter as thirteen tons of beets weighing live and one-half pounds each. —Tomato Soy.:—One peck of ripe tomatoes, one quart of vinegar, three and a half pounds of sugar, and one ounce of whole cloves. Put all over the fire together, and let them stew slowly until the^beoome a thick mass, very rich and —Cottage Pudding.—One cup of sugar, one tablespooniul butter, two eggs, one cup sweet milk, three cups flour, half teaspoonful soda, one teaspoonful cream-tartar sifted with the flour, a pinch of salt. Bake in a buttered mold. Eat hot, oat in slices, with a liquid sauce. —Nice Fried Liver.—Cut into small strips, put on a platter, pour over boiling water and immediately pour it off. Place a Dying-pan on the stove with some beef dripping in it; dredge the liver with cracker dust, season with pepper and salt and put into the pan. Cover and fry slowly until the pieces are well browned A little chopped onion cooked with the liver is very nioe for those who like the flavor. —A recipe for New England baked beans: Boil the beans (the small peabean is the best) in plenty of water and put them in an earthen pot, with cover, and bake slowly for two hours or more, in water enough to keep them well-moistened. Most people in New England add from one to four tablespoonfuls of molasses, according to their t^ste. This gives them a rich brownish shade, and a better taste. Put in pork or not, and in quantity to suit. —A writer in the Practical Farmer gives the results of experience in saving flower seeds. No general rule can be laid down, each sort requiring special treatment. Pansy seeds must be saved while they are quite green, as the pods burst as soon as they turn yellow, throwing the seed several feet Plants of phlox are pulled up when a fair amount of the seed is ripe, and spread on large sheets in a warm garret On a small scale handpicking may ! do. Petunia and pertulaca are treated in the same way, except that the portulaca plants are out off, and they grow up again for another crop. Verbenas must be handpicked twice a week for several weeks. ‘

—io piQKie peacnes, plums and pears take ot ripe peaches, plums, pears or apples seven pounds of sugar; one quart of vinegar, and one ounce of mixed spices; put the sugar and vinegar together, and pour over the fruit, Slowing it to stand until the next morning, when repeat this process, straining the juice off the fruit, letting it. come to the boil, and continue to do so for four mornings; then add spices, and put all over the fire, and cook very slowly untij they look rich and clear. Pears should be boiled jn water until you can run a broom straw through them. Quinces are also delicious when preserved in this manner. —The New York Sun says: “ Heaves or broken wind in horses is not readily cured, but the distress of the animal may be alleviated by giving proper care and attention to his food. fiive no musty hay, avoiding alt kinds containing clover of any species. Turn out the horse in summer to pasture, and in winter feed well-cured com fodder and sound, clean oats or meal upon cut hay, or cornstalks well moistened. If hay is fed let it be in small quantities, and ats night only, and then sprinkled with water when prat-m -ther-inanger. 'Also" avoid driving soon after feeding. Nerve tonics are also useful, and the best of these* is arsenic, given in five-grain doses daily for a month or more, but usually three or four weeks will be sufficient.” —Fowls in Orchards.—Last fall the editor of the Poultry World visited an orchard in which fowls were kept, the owner of which told him that before the fowls were confined in it the trees made little or no growth and only a corresponding amount of fruit was" obtained. But what a change was evident now! The grass was kept down, the weeds killed, and the trees presented an appearance of thrift, which the most enthusiastic horticulturist could not but admire and envy. The growth of the trees was most vigorous, and the foliage most luxuriant; the fruit was abundant, of large size, and free from worms and other imperfections. The excellence was accounted for by the proprietor, who remarked that the ‘‘hens ate all the worms and curculio in their reach, even to the canker worm.” He found less trouble with their roosting in trees than he expected, and a picket fence six feet high kept them within bounds. His orchard was divided into three sections, and the fowls were changed from one to another as the condition of the fowls or the orchard sections seem to require.

Farmers’ Daughters. Hera is a fact that may interest the voung girls who live in farm-houses. The London Pall Mall Gazette says: “England can no longer furnish her own butter. The cheaper kinds come from America, for Americans, even with their rich pastures and improved stock of cows cannot make the best grade. The high-priced grades come to Southampton from Normandy and Brittany. And why is good butter not made in England? Because the dairy-maid with her pail is a thing of poetry and the past. Because farmers’ wives and daughters now think dairy-work a degradation.” The Gazette proceeds to state the enormous income whioh dairy farming carried on by women has brought to Franoe; the daughter of a dairy farmer often receiving a dower of twenty thousand dollars on her wedding day. Much of it is the product of her own work, skill and management. J We might go bn with the inquiry: Why cannot Americans make the best grade of buttdrP Because the business has gone out of the hands of the farmer’s wife and daughter, and is done by machinery. *Near Philadelphia, in the rich hill-farms, there are a few old Quaker dames and their daughters who are not ashamed of this old-time craft; whose yellow fragrant pats of butter, wrappeel in oool'leaves, and packed in tubs delicately clean, are known all over the country and command $1 or $1.50 per pound in any c\ty market. “But,” say the farmers, “are our daughters, who have received a modern education, to go back to the old drudgery of their grandmothers?” We question whether the modern education has not made them despise too much the old drudgery? In the majority of cases, these daughters are still compelled to work for their living. They crowd into the cities, as poor artists, china decorators, clerks, shop-girls. Or they besiege editors with mawkish verses. In this slighted dairy-work is a paying business which belongs to women, and which, could they master it, would yield them as certain an income as it does the Breton or Norman girl. It is a business which requires intelligence, scrupulous cleanliness and delioacy of manipulation. A roll of clover-scented butter of the best grade is a higher work of art than a bad picture or are trashy verses. Our girls who are looking from their country'homes, pining for a career, should dig under their own hearth-stone to find if the pot of gold be not waiting for then there.— South's Companion.
