FARM, fciRDEX AND HOUSEHOLD. Free Prescription*. The following paragraphs from the American Cultivator are worthy of attention: The Feet.?Were people to bathe their feet and legs in lukewarm water at1 # night after being exposed to cold or wet * through the day they would seldom ex- \ perience the ill effects which often proceed from these causes. Intemperance.?Every act of intoxi-' cation puts nature to the expense of a fever in order to discharge the poisonous draught. When this is frequently re. peated it is very easy to foresee the consequences to the victim of the debauch. Headache.?To cure a simple headache, put the feet in a large basin of very warm water and keep them there for j fifteen minutes. This will often afford 1 immediate relief. If the pain is severe add a tablespoonful of dry mustard to 11. - A * mc wiwr. Eikly Rising.?Let any one who lias been accustomed to be in bed till eight j or nine o'clock in the morning rise by six, spend a couple of hours walking or ritling out of doors, and he will find his. spirits cheerful and serene through the day, his appetite keen and his body braced throughout Cleanliness.?Many diseases may be cured by cleanliness alone; most diseases might be mitigated by it, and if neglected the slightest diseases are often changed into the most mabgnant. Fresh ; air and eleanhness above all things? these are as inexpensive as they are necessary. Perspiration.?It is absolutely im- ' possible to enjoy health when perspira-! tion is not duly carried on, but this can never be the case when proper and regular exercise is neglected. When the matter which should be thrown off by perspiration remains in the body it vitiates the humors and occasions gout, fevers, etc. Exercise is far more efficacious and pleasant than medicine. Air Our Houses.?The various meth- j ods which luxury has invented to make houses close and warm contribute not a bttle to render them unwholesome, un- j less the air has a free passage through it Beds, instead of being made up as soon as people rise from them, ought to v be turned down and exposed to the fresh j air. This will expel noxious vapors and promote health. The Bedroom.?There is notliing more indicative of refinement and genu- j ine culture in a family than bright, cheerful and tastefully decorated bed ; i chambers. Tasteful decoration does not j ' necessarily mean expense, and it is pos-; ciKId molrn a AliomKm* lnnlr rorr ' w uiaai/ ? v/iiaiu LfvA awa ?\a ^avvvj j at a very small outlay. Indeed, in many instances, no outlay at all will be required beyond what would be incurred under any circumstances. Experiment with fceed*. There are many questions constantly presenting themselves for solution to every thoughtful person engaged in the propagation or cultivation of plants. These questions relate to all the infinitely varied conditions and influences under whicji plant growth can take place. Every farmer and gardener has many opportunities to throw light on these subjects by a little effort in the way of ex- t perimenting. The whole future life of j the plant is often greatly influenced by j the conditions under which germination ' , takes place. The condition and quality | of the soil, the nature, condition and j amount of the manure or fertilizer used, I and the conditions of light, heat and moisture during the germination and I early stages of the plant, have a decided ! and in most cases a controlling influence j on the future growth and vigor of the plant. These things are all governed by j established laws. The reason that sue oess is not more general and uuiform is that our knowledge of the laws of germination and growth is too limited, and even what is*known is not as generally and intelligently applied as it might and should be. A simple, carefully conduct ed experiment, in which all the elements are taken into account, may be the means of throwing light on some important i point that will result in great practical good. Soaking seed in various mineral or chemical solutions before planting, often has a very important effect on the health and vigor of plants. A series of trials that would determine what these effects are, would be of great practical utility to farmers. Would it not be a good subject for the consideration of granges and farmers' clubs ? Suppose the different members of a grange should arrange for a series of experiments to be made during the present season, so arranging it that each one shall have a defi nite and specific duty to perform; every step in the process with the results to be A ~ J3 A _ Al A AI repjinxi wj uic grange ui rue proper time. These reports might be placed on the records of the grange for future reference, and thus serve as a guide to future operations.?Practical Fanner. Tsefal Family Hint?. To Make the Complexion White and Soft.?Use tepid water containing a little powdered borax for bathing the face and hands every morning and evening. To Purify Wateb.?Pnfverized alnm will purify water, the quantity being a large spoonful to a hogshead of water. Liquid Glue.?A bottle two-thirds full of the beet common glue, and tilled up with common whisky; cork up, and set by for three or four days. Polish fob Old Fubnjtube.?Take of ninety-eight per cent, alcohol one-half pint; pulverized rosin and gum shellac, of each one-fourth ounce; let this cut in the alcohol; then add linseed oil onehalf pint, and shake well. Dry Hop Ybast.?Pour on one very large handful of hops one quart of boiling water; let simmer until the liquid is very strong; have in a dish one pint of flour, five large spoonfuls of sugar, and three cm salt; strain the water from the hops, and stir, boiling, into the flour; if very thin, add flour to make a stiff batter; when at blood heat stir into it one large or two small cakes of dissolved /Vkmnpncan/l trnoof and aawav am/1 afon/1 VOOWl JVWOVj auu OUU DUCUiU in a warm place until very light; then add sufficient white corn meal to knead it; let raise again, and then roll out in a sheet one inch thick, cut in cakes two inches square, and dry well in the sun; they will take five or six days, according to the weather; must be .turned every day, and if placed out of doors to dry must be brought in by four o'clock in the afternoon; when thoroughly dry place not more than two dozen in a paper bag and tie up tightly, hanging in a dry closet; use one for an ordinary baking of bread. Last vear Mr. George Eggleston brought liome with hiui from Palestine some cones of the " cedars of Lebanon " and presented them to Trinity college, Hartford. The seeds were planted and the young trees are now thriving nicely. It is intended to have an avenue of cedars of^Lebanon*on|the grounds of the new swid building* which the college 5s now Aiehtipg, ? Proclamation by the President. The President has called for an extra session of Congress on October 15 in the following proclamation: By th.2 President of the United States of America?A Proclamation: j Whereas the final adjournment of the Forty-fourth Congress, without making , the usual appropriations for the support of the army for the fiscal year ending j June 30, 1878, presents an extraordinary occasion requiring the President to exercise the power vested in him by the Constitution to convene the j houses of Congress in anticipation of j the day fixed by law for their next meeting ; Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. Hayes, President of the United States, do by virtue of the power to this end in me vested by the Constitution, convene both houses of Congress to assemble at their respective chambers at twelve ; o'clock noon, on Monday, the fifteenth day of October next, then and there to ] consider and determine such measures ; as in their wisdom, their duty and the welfare of the people may seem to de- ; in and. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the city of Washington this fifth ; day of May, in the year of our Lord 1877, and the independent of the j United States of America the 101st. ! By the President?William M. Evarts, j Secretary of State. R. B. HAYES. A Waiter Turns Out to be a Nebleman. i % For the past two years there has dwelt in Eureka, Nev., a young man who, although following the occupation of a restaurant waiter, attracted much attention on account of his superior learning and intelligence. He spoke five | different languages with fluency, was rtll mnuam r\f a q/ll' anfltl o 1 wcu. puowxi iu au jLuavi^xo ui a ovivuwuv I character, possessed an intimate ac-' quaintance with current literature, and was at no loss in reference to the entanglements and mysteries of the European ; war question. Whenever he could get hold of a sympathetic listener, he would i dwell learnedly on the Russian policy, and explain in detail the probable moves i on the political chess-board. The jaw-' breaking words that almost give the j lockjaw to English speaking people; rolled glibly from his tongue. As for foreign dispatches, he fairly reveled in them. When questioned as to his past i history, he would answer: " Story, sir, I have none to tell." Concealment, how- j ever, came to an end", and the Eureka Sentinel furnishes its readers with the ! following account of the learned waiter: He was born near Moscow, in Russia, of noble parentage, and his title is Count, Alexander Huhn. He was educated at the 1 University of Kharkov, and after completing Ins studies entered the army, where, by family standing and influence, i he rapidly rose to the rank of colonel. His prospects were very bright until one ! unfortunate day when he became em- j broiled in a quarrel with a brother officer. ' A duel was the result, and the count HIIojI Viia anfatYnniaf A a flio nsvlct vim AIXIVU UIO MUVU^VAiAUVt VUV WV?V ?? MW , prohibited, and infractions of the law ; in that respect are rigidly punished, : Colonel Huhu fled the country, and for the past three years lias been a wanderer , in foreign lands. His family, exasperated at his conduct, disowned him, | and he finally brought up in Eureka and ! engaged in the humble occupation of a i waiter. When the European complica-1 tion arose he opened a correspondence with the Russian government and his family. The latter recalled their displeasure, and secured his pardon by the j government. He has not only been pardoned, but restored to his rank of col-, onel in the Chasseurs of the Grenadiers. A few days ago he received official notice : of the fact, and also a letter from the Russian consul at San Francisco, who had received orders to provide the count with funds and transportation home. He will join his corps in the field, and j the next that we hear of him may be through dispatches received from the seat of war in the East. " How Did Pharaoh Die. " An English clergyman and a lowland Scotsman visited a 'school in Aberdeen. I They were strangers, but the master re-! ceivt d them civilly, and inquired: : " Would you prefer tMt I should speer these boys, or that you should speer i them yourselves ?" The English clergyman having ascertained that to " speer " i meant to question, desired the master to \ proceed. He did so with great success, i and the boys answered satisfactorily numerous interrogations as to the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. The clergyman then said he would be glad in | his turn to " speer " the boys, and at J once began. "How did Pharaoh die?" There was a dead silence. In this dilemma the lowland gentleman iuterposed. " I think, sir, the boys are not accustomed to your English accent; let me try what I can make of them." And j he inquired in liis broad Scotch : " Hoo did Phawraoh dee ?" Again there was a dead silence; upon which the master said: "I think, gentlemen, you can't speer these boys; I'll show you how I do j it." And he proceeded: "Fat cam to Phawraoh at his hinder end ?" The boys ! answered promptly : " He was droon- j ed;" and, in addition, a smart little j fellow commented : " Ony lassie could i hae told you that." i ? Ml - Appearances are Deceitftil. A rather seedy-looking individual came into a Detroit shipping office the other j day and stood around' with an aimless { and uncertain air for several minutes. Finally one of the firm noticed him, and, I conjecturing his errand, said: " No, sir, we don't want any lead pencils or 1 The Life of Christ' to-day. Couldn't buy them. Nor pain-killer either. Nor j shoe-laoes. We've bought matches until the closet is full of 'em. If we used some patent soap on our collars it would disgrace the rest of our coats. And, finally, we don't ever get our silk hats fixed up. We use them for cushions." The other members of the firm and the clerks wore grins on their countenances, and the caller seemed nonplussed. But he shook himself, and gathered his shiny, threadbare coat about him, and shrugged his shoulders, and as he opened the door to go out he remarked, in low, quiet toi2es: " All right; I just called to pay you * freight bill that has been running since last summer. I'll call again, perhaps." The door closed softly after him, and a stili':ie?8 like that of a Sabbath morn pervadea the office A circus company on their way to Australia stopped at one of the Fiji isu ds. Wliile wandering about one of them tilled a somersault and the natives were astonished at the sight. Seeing this pleased them the members of the oompany went through frequent somersa.ilts and grotesque contortions. The .natives followed them, in the belief that they were missionaries sent to teach a r ^tigion in which somersanlts were part of seevice. !

There is probably no article of manufacture < so universally needed as a reliable low priced roofing, which can be readily applied without the aid of skilled labor. aDd in no other direc- j tiou has so great a want been bo inefhcientlv ! supplied. The results of experiments with felts, cements and other compositions have so far been auvthing but satisfacory. Numerous so-called "cheap roofings" Lave been produced, advertised, used and found worthless. In view of these facts we are glad to be able to speak favorably of an article which, from our own knowledge ami the testimony of some of the most extensive and best known manufacturers j aud merchants iu this country, has proven a ! reliable and economical substitute for the more i expensive kinds of roofing. We refer to H. : W. Johns' Patent Asbestos Hoofing, the manu- : facturers of which make no extravagant representations, but claim it to be the only reliable j portable rooting in use, and from careful inquiry , we believe their claims are well founded. This roofing is prepared ready for use, can be easily applied by unskilled workmen, is adapted for steep or flat roofs in all climates, and when finished with the white fire-proof coating forms the lightest, handsomest and coolest roof in : the world, costing only about half as much as j tin.

This company have i recently completed a new manufactory, the j most extensive works of the kind in the world, and have reduced their prices to a basis which j place their goods within the reach of even- ( one. They also manufacture liquid paints, ail j shades, which are guaranteed equal to any for j general purposes and the most dura1 le for outside work of any paints in use. In body and richness of color the Asbestos Paints surpass any we have ever seen. Fire-proof paint, an economical substitute for white lead, costing only 75 cents per gallon, for the protection of factories, bridges and other wooden structures against fire, is also valuable for the class of outbuildings, fences, etc., which are usually allowed to go unpainted. Roof paint, steam pipe and boiler coverings, steam packing, sheathings, linings, cements, etc., all of which can be relied upon as 'being in every respect as represented, and we advise our readers before purchasing paints or roofing, to send for samples of these articles and compare them with all others.

It is a fact widely and amply attested that where the powerful and pernicious drug, quinine, and other mineral poisons, administered as remedies for fever and ague and bilious remittents, fail to yield more than temporary relief to the sufferer, Hostetter's Stomach"Bitters scoches those tremendous epidemics most thoroughly, and by strengthening the system and regulating its functions, protects it against malarial attacks. No resident of a locality where the above maladies nrevail. or where they are likely to break out in consequence of the poisoning of the atmosphere by noxious exhalations, should fail to tahe practical cognizance of the above important truth, and by a timely use of the BitterB avoid the ravages of maladies 60 disastrous to the physical constitution.

While Dr. H. James was attached to the British medical staff in the East Indies, his high position enabled him to call about him the best chemists, physicians and scientists of the day, and while experimenting with and among the natives, he accidentally made the discovery that consumption can be positively and permanently cured. During the many year# of his sojourn there, he devoted his time to the treatment of lung diseases, and upon his retirement he left with us books and papers containing full particulars, showing that every one can be his own physician and prepare nis own medicine, and such information as we have received we now offer to the public without price, only asking that each remit a three cent stamp for postage.

Similar, or equally as abhurd, reasons are accounted as sufficient by some to warrant them in indiscriminately condemning Dr. Tierce's Family Medicines, even though there is overwhelming proof that they possess the merit claimed for them. For many years the Golden Medical Discovery has been recognized as the leading liver and blood medicine in the market, Eacn year has brought an increase in its sale, and it is now used throughout the civilized world. Thousands of unsolicited testimonials are on file in the doctor's office, attesting its efficacy in overcoming aggravated conghs, colds, throat and lung affections, also scrofula, tumors, ulcers and skin diseases. Are you suffering with some chronic malady? If so, and you wish to employ medicines that are scientifically prepared ; that are refined and purified by the chemical process employed in their manufacture; that are positive in their action, and specific to the various forms of disease for the cure of which they are recommended, use Efr.

East Stoneham, Oxford County, Me., , May IS, 1873,^ Messes. 8ETH W. FOWLB A SONS: Gentlemen?\ feel it my duty to write a few words in fsror ef Dr. WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY. In the early part of last winter I teok a severe cold, and shortly afterwards a distressing cough was added to it. My friends did everything they eonld for me, bat without avail. The beet physicians that could be procured did not relieve me, and my cengh con. tinued with me all through the winter with increasing severity. I spit blood three or four times a day, and my friends considering my case hopeless, gave me up as v confirmed roruuntptitt. I was in this condition when I | heard of Dn. WI8TAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHER KY. 1 MflU iu use, ana ueiurs i uu wien nan a 0 bottle of it my cough and all my other troubles left me, and I was cured. I feel so truly indebted to this great remedy for what it has done for me that I send you this voluntary testimony, hoping it may be the means of inducing others who are suffering as I was to make use of it. It is the best remedy for lung complaints that I ever heard of, and I am constantly recommending it to my friends. Yours with respect, Mrs. MELISSA M. BALL.
