FARMER'S B0Y8.

J. M. Stabl, in the Ohio Farmer, in an article on "Model Farmers," notes one of the peculiarities of the class, as follows "The model farmer encourages the boys. A good many people wonder why so many boys leave the farm I wonder why so many stici to it. A farmer boy is treated in jast the right way to make him dislike bis occupation. He is given worn out tools, and is expected to do a big day's work with them. He is expected "to run all the errands, carry away the refuse vegetables from the house, turn the grindstone, and slop the hogs while the men are resting at dinner. He is thanked in scoldings and paid in foul dealings. This picture is not "over-drawn. Farmer boys have a long, hard row to hoe, and a dull, heavy, rusty hoe to do it with. The model farmer recognizes this fact and encourages his sons—and his daughters, too, for that matter. lie gives the boys a few hogs or calves to feed, and does not pocket the money, either, when he sells them. 1 have known farmers frequently to do that, and it is the meanest thing they can be guilty of—to give one of their children a motherless lamb or runty pig, tell them it is their own, and then when they, by superior care, have made a good animal out of it, to sell it and pocket the proceeds. It is lying and ••heating both combined, and the model farmer does not do it. On the contrary, he lets the boys purchase with their money, and thus by safe bargains make a little monoy for thomselves. And it is a fact worthy of note that his boys are good workers, and till the paternal acres when they become men. The model farmer is mighty good to the boys.

O VII GIRLS AND OTHER GIRLS. Many people complain that our girls have too much liberty. There are, perhaps, some who abuse their privileges, anil as these are usually girls whose manners renders thorn conspicuous, thoy bring discredit upon the system which leaves them to flaunt and giggle unrestrained. Wo believe, however, that most of our young ladies are able to behave properly without constant supervision, and worthy of the freedom thoy enjoy. If some of them are left a littlo too much to their own advices, it is surely better to err In this diroction than in the opposite one. In Italy, (for instance, a girl may nevor leave the house unless accompanied by her father, neither brother nor mother being considered a sufficient guard. Hho is permitted to rend no books but liunhion books, and is locked into her room at night. The one important occupation of her life is embroidery for her trousseau. This great work is*begun at the ago of seven, and many a young girl in her teens can show hundreds of under-garments adorned with elaborate needle-work and laid carefully away in drawers, each dozen tied up with ribbon of a different color. Hor school education tends toward tho same object. A traveler in Italy recently stated that a graduate of a fashionable Italian convent-school asked him in good faith if it was really necessary to cross tj*e sea to go to F.ngland. lie adds, tbtft his explanation of England being an island did not at all enlighten hor,because she did not know, that an island was surrounded by water. Think of an intelligent girl condemned to such a life as this Is not tho liberty of our girls, which perhaps permits a few foolish individuals to display their

faddinessa

somewhat offensively, far pre-

erable to system by which all are punished, and tho best most severely?

The neatest way, says a New York letter, to modestly display a foot, is to rro*s the leg which it belongs to, over the other. This lifts the foot about six inches from the floor, aud lets it bang in easy, graceful suspension. The lower edge of the skirt should lie across the instep, so that only the front half of the fH is shown but that is sufficient, in the present fragmentary state ofsllpper«and sandals, to show a good bit of the tiuely embroidered or delicately woven sto« ktug.

RAPID WORKS

A YOUNG MAN RESCUES A GIRL FROM DROWNING, AND MARRIES HER IMMEDIATELY.

Baltimore Special.

A German named Andrew Sissal, while walking along the county wharf, foot of Broadway this afternoon, saw a young and pretty countrywoman, apparently in a hign state of despondency, standing near the water's edge. It was already growing dark, and intuitively knowing that she was in trouble he walked toward her, and in a kindly manner asked her in English if he could be of any service. As she made no reply, he repeated his question in German. With tears in her eyes she said it was impossible for her to get along in this country. She had arrived the year previous, and during that time had no less than twelve situations, at each of which she remained about one month, without having been paid for her services. This morning she bad become disheartened, and determined on suicide. After making this explanation the voung woman burst into tears, and finally ran to the wharf's edge and jumped in. Young Sissal immediately leaped in after her, and, with great difficulty succeeded in bringing her to land. The girl resisted his brave offices desperately, and the brave German was compelled non-cbalantly to choke her in order to juake her submit to being saved. After be got her to shore he was struck with her beauty, and, being a well-to-do carpenter he offered to marry her at once. After some persuation, the girl consented, and the two proceeded to the residence of Rev. J. B. Still, pastor of the First Methodist Episcopal Church, corner Charles and Fayette streets, who made them man and wife.

PERFECT NEA TNESS. Who can imagine a dirty lady? Neatness and purity are her characteristics. It is so easy to oe neat at home as well as abroad, that when a lady is not thus attired, she has nothing to plead as an excuse but her own negligence aud indifference. There are so many cheap materials which can be fabricated into pretty home dresses So many paper patterns, readily obtained, which furnish attractive and suitable styles for domestic wear. The woman, therefore, who is most attractively and suitably attired at home, is literally without'any good excuso whatever. Women of taste and refinement will leave the stamp of their individuality upon all their surroundings. They will not decorate their rooms after the most artistic rules, while they themselves are thoroughly inelegant and unartisticin their attire. A gentleman visiting recently the home of a celebrated artist, described, in glowing terms, the beautv of the establishment, dwelling on tfie fact that the mistress of the mansion, who presided over the tea-table, was in a costume which was in perfect harmony with the surroundings. "There was poetry," he says, "in her beautiful home, and poetry in herself and her dross." She was a beautiful part of a beautiful picture., which lingered in his memory long after the actual vision had passed away. Without tho artistic and graceful costume of the lady of tho house, this domestic picture would have been shorn of one of its chief beauties.

A QUEER PLACE~FOR A TOMB. Mary Jane, traveling through the south, writes to the Louisville CourierJournal "NVhile I was in Nashvilie I walked by the residence of Mrs. Polk, widow of the ex-president, and noticed tho president's tomb in the front yard. I never was married and I don't know how Pmiyht act as a widow,but I don't believe I'd put up my deceased other half in the front yard where I could see his tomb before aud after oach meal and between times. I have no objection to another woman doiug it, however an ccmlraire. I admire the fidelity and love which promnt.it, but I know several instances of widows who, if thoy had done so with their first husbands, their seconds would have ottered a bill of exception?, and, again, in some instances, if tlie practice had been followed, the whole front yard would have been filled with the mementoes of the widow's slain. Mrs. l'olk's home is in an old-fashioned structure of brick with a pillared portico in front, and presents very manorial appearance.

MRS. LI I'ERMORE S SHOT. "Women are so frivolous, so fond of dress, parade and show that they would make of govermcnt an everlasting spectacular drama," says a man. "Possibly," retorts Mrs. Livermore, "but I can not remember ever to have seen women walking delightedly, for hours, in a torch-light procession, through muddy streets, amid the thundering of cannon, the flash of rockets and the blaze of colored lights. I think I have never seen them parading by daylight, clad in bits of abbreviated aprons, ornamented, as to the shoulders,in what seemed exaggerated horse-collars, their heads supporting an infinite amount of 'fassand leathers,'and their swelling bosoms nearly bursting with ecstatic delight as they caught admiring glances from the other sex in balconies and at chamber windows."

A correspondent of the Boston Gazette relates the following interesting story about the venerable Peter Cooper: "Nearly every day he diives down to his office, and stays there for a few hours. As he comes out to his coupe he is surrouuded by a bevy of seedylooking men. EacK in turn steps up to him with a 'good-dav, Mr. Cooper,' and an expectant look in his eye, and just as regularly the benevolent old gentloman puts his hand in his pocket and

Say

ives him apiece of money and a 'goodto you.' Why do you let these people annoy you, Mr. Cooper?' asked an impatient young man the other day. .'Theydon't annoy meat *11.' said the philanthropist. *'They are old friend* of mine, poor felloes/ Maov of them have seen better days. They don't want much—jnst enough for dinner oralttiu'b. When lam ready to leave the office I put few dollars In change in my pocket, and give it to them when they speak to me. They expect it, you know, and I wouldn't like to disappoint them.'"

THERE is anew theatre at Des Moines, and the manager desires that the audience shall improve their manners. "Each man or boy," besays,in the rules

There must be as good order in the gallery as there is down stairs. Gentlemen will not wear their hats, neither will they attempt to go from one row to another over the backs •f seats." The people are further requested to applaud by clapping their hand*, and not by yelling like wild beast*.

HO If TO KEEP FROM DROWNING. The human body weighs a pound in the water and a singlo chajr will garry twp grown persons that is, it will keep the head above water, which is all that is necessary when it is a question of life or death. Une linger placed upon a stool or chuir, or a small box or piece of board will easily keep the head above water, while the two feet aud other hand may be used us puddles to propel the body toward the shore. It is not at all necessary to know how to swim to keep from drowning in this way. A little cxperi euce of the buoyant power of the ater. and faith in it, is all that is required! We have seen a small bov, who could L'ot swim a stroke, propel himsell back and forth across a deep, wide pond, by means ot a board that would not sustain live pounds weight. Children and all others should have practice in the sustaining power of water. In nine cases out of ten the knowledge that will sustain a pound weight is all that is necessary to keep one's head above water, will serve better emergencies than the gieatel expertness as a swimmer. A person unfamiliar with the buoyant power of water will naturally try to climb to the top of the floating object on which lie tries to save himself. If it is large enough that is all right. But it is generally uot large enough, and half of a struggling group is often drowned in the desperate scramble of alifeanddeath struggle to climb on top of apiece of wreck or other floating object, uot large enough to keep them all entirely al»ove water. This otten happens when pleas-ure-boats capsize. All immediately want to get out of the water on top of the overturned or half-filled boat, aud all are drowned except those whom the wrecked craft will wholly bear up. If they would simply trust the water to sustain nine-ty-nine hundredths of the weight of their bodies, and the disabled boat the other hundredth, they might be savod under most circumstances, A Wooden bout, overturned or water-filled, will sustain more people in this way than it will carry. It would keep alxjve water the heads of as many people as could get their hands ou the gunwale. These are simple facts, easily learned, and may some day save your life.

A CLKR YMA N'S SORE THROA T. This disease, which has, during the past twenty or thirty years abridged or entirely closed the ministerial usefulness of so many clergymen, has rarely found successful treatment under any of the old systems of medicine. The following from Rev. J. B. Pradt, of Madison, Wi««\nsin (late Assistant State Superintendent of Wisconsin), shows bow promptly, in bis case, this disease yielded to the action of Compound Oxygen. He says: "I had been troubled niany years with 'Clergyman's' Sore Throat and after a severe attack of influenza, the upper part of the lungs was left very tender and irritable, and I was obliged to desist entirely from using my voice in public service. After a two months' trial of the Compound Oxygen, I found myself, to my surprise and gratification, able "to go through full services again, not only without any trouble, but with little fatigue. Three montba' use of the remedy restored my voice and lungs completely, and greatly improved my general health. I feel It my duty, therefore, to bear testimony to its good effects. I have waited for time to test the permanence of tbe benefits received, and can say that during the past severe winter I have been entirely free from colds, and better general health than for many

I A NILL-F A TED EXC URSION.

A PARTY OF BATHERS WHOSE CLOTHING WAS CARRIED AWAY BY A FLOOD.

Louisville Commercial.

Last Monday an excursion left this for Henry couuty, that was destined to m^et with many strange adventures. The party consisted of about fifty young ladies and gentlemen, well known in society here, and were in charge of Mr.and Mrs. D. R. Castleman, and Mr. and Mrs. George W. Gist. One of the vouug gentlemen described the trip to *a Commercial reporter last night. "We got off tbe cars at New Castle, and started in wagons dowu to Drennou Springs. We had hardly reached there when it began to rain, aud we all huddled into au old chapel to wait till the rain was over. Presently the sun came out bright and warm, and some of the boys proposed that we have a swim. As the youug ladies did uot care to go, we left them in the chapel and started off to the creek. I don't know the name of the infernal place, but the rain, which was rather heavy, had made it rather deep. We didn't "hang our clothes on a hickory limb,' like the girl in the song, but waded out into the middle ®f the creek and laid them carefully on a big flat rock, where they wouldn't get wet, and then we started in for a good time. We splashed around in the water, jumping and swimming about for half an hour or more. Unconsciously we got further and further away from the rock where our clothes lay, nor did we uotice that the creek was"slowly rising. After a time we got tired of the water, and started for our clothes. We wade dowu the creek, and the water, which, before, had been just above our knees, now cove rod our waists. We looked for the rock. We could see nothing of it. One of the young men happened to look down the creek, and away off, fifty yards from where we left our clothes, he saw a part of his underclothes floating on the stream. "Then we knew what had happened, and the nature of our calamity struck us with full force. Here we were, stark naked, without any visible means of getting anything to put on, near ten Kiiles from any town, and with their pretty girls to take home. What in the devil were we to do we asked. It was out of of the question to goto tho young ladies in our fix. We couldn't stay where we wero. We couldn't walk back to New Castle naked. Soon some one suggested a plan. We were to draw lots to see who would go back to the girls. A line of trees some ten or fifteen yards apart extended up to where they were. The man to whose lot it fell to see the girls was to crawl along from {one tree to another till he came within hailing distance, tell them what was the matter, let them go back to town and send us help. We had just about decided on the plan when the enemy outflanked us. Half a dozen of the young ladies got it into their heads to go on an exploring expedition, aud sauntered off to the right and left of the trees. A snake couldn't crawl between these trees that these girls couldu't see. We began to get cold and-were huddled all together in a bunch, and every time the breeze struck our naked bodies we shivered dismally. "Just at this tilne Will Caplinger happened along, and we told him our trouble. Ke volunteered to help us. He started off to tho girls and gathered them all together. Then he broke the news to them. Mosi of them laughed till they cried, and then, after a short consultation, they agreed to help us. Thev said it would be foolish to leave us there all night till the3' got aid the best plan would be to get some of their clothes. 'We have plenty of underclothes and things,' said a pretty little girl, blushingly. The girls ali went into the old chapel* and began to decide what articles tbey could best dispose with. One young lady contributed her overskirt. another her underskirt, and a third her immaculately white petticoat. Besides this there were a dozen other articles that I won't name, and some thai I can't name. When the girls came out they handed the things to Mastersor., and he carried them over to us. I hardly knew how we did get them on. I had a petticoat and an oversklrt pinned back after the latest fashion, and some rigging about my shoulders, the name ot which I don't know. "One of the othor fellows had on a kind of a night gown, with tucks and rufllles and lace and things. It had plenty of lace on it. too. We were a hardlooking crowd, and a comical crowd as we got into the wagous and started back for New Castle.

It would take a man to see us to have any idea of how ludicrous we looked in those girls' dresses. A big gang were waiting for us at New Castle, and you ought to have heard tbnm cbeer when the man with the night-gown, short sleeves, low neck arrangement got off. Thsy fairly howled themselves hoarse. Most of us lost our watches and all our clothes and money. A few saved their shoes and underclothes, and oue or two their coats."

The following are a few of the young gentlemen present, some of whom live in Henry County:

Robert Gray, Joseph Pryor, Robert Samuel, John Oldham, Kenneth Webb, John Cbambars, Horace Swaim, Linden Luckett, Charles aud Thomas Adams, William Gist, Waller Brinke'r and W. W. Matterson. Tbe young ladles refuse to le interviewed, but cay they are prepared to divide their garments any time with their escorts under similar circumstances.

The Henry County Local, commenting on the affair, says "The bovs will always turn their backs bereifter when they see a young lady getting into a spring wagon. They know bow it is themselves."

WILLING HANDS AND WILLING HEARTS. How gratifying to the invalid husband to know that willing bands smooth his pillow willing hands propare his food and give him medicine, and that willing hearts are praying for his recovery.

CATS AND THE WEATHER. Harper's Weekly. Cats have the reputation of being weatherwise, an old notion which has given rise to a most extensive folk-lore. It is almost universally believed that good weather may be expected when the cat washes herself, but bad when she licks her coat against the grain, or washes her face over her ear, or sits with her tail toward the fire. As, too, the cat is supposed not only to have a good knowledge of the state of the weather, but a certaiu share in the arrangment of it, it is considered by sailors to be most unwise to provoke it. Hence they do not much like to see a cat on board at all, and when one happens to more frisky than usual, they have a popular saying that "the cat has got a gale of wind in her tail." A charm often resorted to for raising a storm is to throw a cat overboard but, according to a Hungarian proverb, as a cat does not die in water, its paws disturb the surface heuce the flaws on the surface of the water are nicknamed "cat's-paws." In the same way, also, a larger flurry on the water is a^ "cat's-skin and in some parts of Eugland a popular name for the stormy northwest wind is the "eat's-nose." Amongst other items of wenther-lore associated with the cat, there is a superstition in Germany that if it rains when women have large washing on hand, it is an infallible sign that they have a spite against them, owing to their not having treated these animals well. We may also compare the Dutch idea that a rainy wedding day results from the bride's neglecting to feed her cat whereas in the valleys of the Tyrol girls who are l'ond of cats are said always to marry early, perhaps, as Mrs. Busk remarks, "an evidence that household virtues are appreciated in them b\ the men." Once more, there is a German belief that anyone who, during his lifetime may have made cats his enemies, is certain* to be accompanied to the grave amidst a storm of wind and rain.

Do not grasp at the shadow and lose the substance." Kidney-Wort is able to cenvert you from a shadow of your former self into the substance of established health. Said a sufferer from kidney trouble when asked to try Kid-nev-Wort for a remedy. "I'll try it, but it will be my last dose."" It cured him and now he recommends it to all. If yon have disordered kidneys don't fail to'trv it.

FAITHFUL TO THE LAST. Chicago Tribune. "lie brave, Beryl." The north wind was howling fiercely through the cordage of a stanch vessel as she dashed madly through the seething waters that stretched away from hor on every side in desolato fury. Now poised on the crest of a great, green billow, and anon plunged intb a waterv depth that seemed to end only in the bosom of the earth, the good ship struggled liravely with the mighty forces of the tempest but though her timbers might groan in almost human agony, there was no parting oT the seams, no weakening of tho bolts that hold deck and bulwark togother in so firm a clasp.

It was Beryl McCloskoy's wedding trip. Two days agone sho had been joined in wedlock's holy bonds to George W. Simpson,and her mother had consented tw go with them on their bridal journey. It was her loving arm that supported Beryl now, her kindly voice that spoke the words with which this chapter opens. "George cannot love mo, mamma," tbe girl said, speaking in low. mellow tones, "or he would be at my side now, when I need him so sorely." "Do not judge hastily, my child," replied the mother. "Goorgo is pretty busy. Even now I see him leaning over the vessel's side." "Is lie then so very, very sick?" asked Beryl. '•Quite very,"said Mrs. McCloskey. "lias ho thrown up his situation "No, my darling." "Then,'*' said the girl, a holy lovelight illuming her pure young face, "I will never leave him."

MA GNETIZE THE BED. Christian at Work. A German has occupied many years iu studying the art of bed-making, or rather bed-placing. Baron Kuichenback, the painstaking (ierman, maintains that improperly placed beds will shorten a man's life, lie says: "If a mere magnet exercises an influence on seusativo jwrsous, theearth's magnetism must certainly make itself felt on tbe nervous life of man.

In whatever hemisphere you may lie, always sleep with your foot to tbe equator, and let your body lie true as a needle to the pole.'

The liaron says tbe polar direction of the body is of the utmost importance for tbe proper circulation of the blood, and many disturbances in the human organisms have been cured by simply placing tbe bolster at a different point of tbe compass from that it had occupied.

Let such as have hitherto been in the habit of sleeping with their heads where their feet ought to be, take to heart the example of the late I)r. Fischweiter, of Magdeburg, who died recently at the ago of 109 years.*

The most unhealthy position, we are told, is when the body lies due east and west. Some observers assure ns that to sleep in such a posture is tentamountto committing suicide,and that diseases are often aggravated by deviations from tbe proper posture.
