agriculture. An Ox Team fob thb Farm.—For hauling about the farm and breaking uj/ land, oxea are, in several respects, pre ferable to horses. In the item of feed the/ are much cheaper, and this alone is a weighty consideration. And then as the character ot their work, while they are slow, they are streng, sure and trusty; they do not pull with such vio lence and suddenness as many horses do, and hence do not break so much harness or so many carts- When they hitch a tree or stump, they stop until the driver can turn them aside. This disposition makes them much better than the horse for hauling m the woods or in new grounds. Many horses, as soon as they make a hitch with a vehi cle, begin to pull harder or become fretful, and generally end by breaking the cart or some part of the harness. For hauling rails, wood, litter, Ac., about the farm, oxen are the best and safest team, though a little slower, gen erally, than a horse. On the score of economy the scale is altogether in favor oi the ox. A pair of oxeu costing much less than one horse, will do more work than the horse, mak- it unnecessary on a two horse farm t© keep but one horse. Thus there is a great annual saving in both corn and long forage, and the maures from two steers is more than that of one horse. The board of a farm horse for one year would , buy three or four oxen. And then, when an ox gets too old for a pro fitable work animal, it can be fattened, and its hide, tallow and flesh will sell for enough to buy another ox. For breaking up lane, a pair of oxen does excellent work, but they are not well adapted to field work in summer time, though entire crops are frequently made with no other team. Even when there are plenty of horses to do ?.!! the work of a farm, it is best to have one ox. or a pair, to do the rough work. For getting out litter for compost, the ox is just the animal.

Janet home from church; Janet was not comely, but an excdlent servant aud especially devout. One Sunday afternoon, on retorning from the kirk, she mentioned to the ladies of the fam ily how much she had enjoyed the services. Shortly afterward they heard h'er scolding at a great rate ana one of the ladies remonstrated with her. ''Why, Janet, I’m afraid the services did you very little good, after all, as you seem to have lost your temper.” “Ah. weel,” said Janet, *T left William to look after things and every thing’s so upset it’s enough to take the taste o’ prayer out o’ one’s month.” A book agent named Joe Smyrk, Was put out and hurt by a jerk. He says as a cure, St. Jacob's Oil is sure, At all times to get in its work. A lightning-rod man in St Paul, From a bouse had a serious fall, Though battered and bruised, • He said, when he used St. Jacob's Oil—“It simply beats all’ Care of Wagon Wheels.—The sever est strain in the cart or carriage comes upon the wheels. The felloes especially are exposed to alternate mud and drought, according to the prevailing weatuer. The paint soon wears off, and the wood absorbs the water from every mud puddle through which tbe vehicle is driven. In a diy time the wood shrinks, and the tire gets loose. The remedy is a new setting if the tire, and a bill trom the blacksmith, it is much cheaper to clean up the carriage occa- sionally, aud giving the wheel a dres sing of linseed oil as hot as it can be put on. The wood will absorb a good deal of tbe oil, and will swell the rim so as to make the tire tight. It will pre vent the rotting of the wood, aud make long-lived wheels. When the wheels have soaked up all the oil they will take, put on a good coat of paint. The peach-borer is a wasp-like In sect, with transparent wings, and a richly ornamented body, banded and striped with gold, which deposits its eggs about the base of the trunk. • The eggs batch out, and the laivie bore into tne sapwood, and cause au < xudation of gummy matter which appears in masses about the base of the tree The larvue seem partly to live iu tbis gummy sub stance and partly in the sapwood of the tree. Sometimes three or four are found on the same tree, occasionally girdling and destroying it, but always inducing more or Less ot a diseased oou- and inquiring its vigor. Alto gether it is a very objectionable and de structive insect. The real practical value there is in keeping accounts with the farm consiets in ibis: ••When a tanner keeps such au account in his operations he is able by annually casting up his balances to see just what crop and what line if his tarm operations have paid him best. If any line of cropping iu a series of years is thus shown not to be so profitable as some other crop, these definite data en able him to ooirect his mistakes and de termine on some new line of procedure. ” The most of the business men who fail find on a rt Aision of their transactions, too loosely kept, that iu reality they iiud faileu months and someiimes years before the fact was revealed to them. A German paper gives the following mtarestuig method of starting plants early; The seeds of peas, beans, cu cumbers, etc,, are itirted in a frame, and when a In tie grown are lifted and tbe roots dipped in a mixture of clay, chopped moss, water and loam, and on withdrawal are sprinkled with firm, dry earth. A piece of moss is then flattened into the form of a plate and a little earth sprinkled on it. The prepared plants are then placed on this plate, the moss folded oyer the roots, tied on so as to form a little ball andjy^uiMiy on boards or she! Green Gooseberries for Tarts.— Fill very clean, dry, wide-necked bot tles with gooseberries picked the same day, in dry weather, and just before they have attained their full size. Wrap a little hay round each bottle, and set them up to their necks in a boiler of cold water, which should be brought very gradually to boil; a little hay must be put in the bottom of the boiler, and the bottles fixed firmly. Let the fruit simmer gently until it appears shrunken and perfectly scalded, then take out the bottles, and till up as many as yon can quite full with some of the cooked gooseberries—it is generally necessary to sacrifice one of the bottles in doing this, taking care not to break the fruit. Directly tbe bottles are full of gooseberries, pour boiling water into the bottles up to the brims, else they will mildew. Tie bladder over the tops immediately, aud keep the bottles iu a dry, cool place. When tbe gooseber ries are used, pour off the greater part of the water, and add the same sugar as for fresh fruit, of which they ought to have the same flavor and appeurauce. Prepared in this way, gooseberries are perfectly wholesome, and will keep until the fruit comes in again. Perambulator Robe.—A sensible robe for mild spring weather, to be tucked into a perambulator, is made of two thicknesses of bine “eider-down” cloth: the tufted surface of both squares placed outside, aud the edges joined by rows of machine stitching. Tnis infan tile “buffalo robe” should be added to the usual printed or woven carriage coverings to keep out the keen spring winds whick lurk even on the sunny side of the way. Old Tin rs in Merinos.—Quaker gray, dove aud cloud gray merinos are com bined with velvet to make street toilets for spring. A pleated flounce on the bottom ot the skiit, trimmed with vel vet bands, which also form tbe trimming of the draperies, corsage and cuffs, makes a very elegant costume. Handrun Andalusian lace with figures as heavy as those of embroidery is the fashiona ble garniture for black Ottoman silk dresses. “What makes you limp so?” asked a Harlem man of a friend who went hobbling along toward the elevated railroad. “My knees are awfully sore—outsell I” he yelled, as he struck his leg against a hydrant. “Have you been saying your prayers a great deal, lately?” “Not to any remarkable extent,” be grinned.

A Spiral Taper,—Amber wax caudles moulded in deep spiral curves have ap peared iu the shop windows. This shape is to keep the wax from guttering down the sides irregularly as the caudle is consumed. The lower ends of the candles are sensibly cut away in grooves so that they can fit into an ordinary candlestick without “wobbling” or necessitating bands of paper. Besides amber, other pretty colored tapers are old blue and framboise pink. The addition of a little mace to a veal soup will give an agreeable flavor to it.

This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine ou earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H.

B Many others started nostrums put up In similar style to H.

Alt such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word “Hop'or “Hops” In their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits.

There is an old proverb which says, “You should always tell your Doctor and Lawyer the truth.’ Did you do this when you first consulted, your physician in regard to those queer chills followed by flushes of heat—that numbness and pain in all parts of the body which he said was Malaria ? Did you tell him that yon had often suffered during the previous year with sour stomach, heartburn, nausea, flatulence, constipation, and occasional grip ing, and that your tongue had been coated more or less for a long time? If not, you are more in fault than the Doctor. You probably told him the truth, but not the whole truth, and it is from this cause, this neglect of what a“e considered by many as trifling ailments, that people are compelled to suffer long illnesses, which simple reme dies will prevent if taken in time. The symptoms we have mentioned are those of a weak and bilious condition of the digestive organs and a diseased liver. They are borne by many with but little complaint, the patient generally attending to his usual occupation, and scarcely mentioning his ail ments to his nearest friends. He sometimes has an excellent appetite, eating heartily and with great relish. At other times there is positive disgust for all food. There is with some a constant dull headache, with dots before the eyes, pain in the right side, a sleepy, dull feeling alter meals, a restless, nervous condition ot night, had dreams, at times great melancholy without apparent cause, a costive condition of the bowels, a coated tongue. These symptoms, when not attended to, are sure to undermine the system and pro duce the most serious disease*. Typhoid fever is caused by the neglect of these ail- meuts, Chills and fever are always trace able to an impaired condition of the digest ive organs. No one was ever attacked with Malaria whose digestlou was good. Dys pepsia and Liver Complaint often lead to Consumption. The digestive organization is the basis of health, and any deviation from perfection is dangerous. How shall we keep the digestive organs in such a condition that the system will resist disease ? Our answer to this is plain, aud, we think, reasonable. 'We most go the original cause of the trouble. If the stomach has become Ailed up with slimy secretions, they must be removed, and this should he doue with out irritation. The bowels must he purified aud cleansed without weakening the general system. The liver must be roused to healthy action and made to secrete the proper amount of bile necessary to good digestion. A few doses of Dr. Scheuck’s Mandrake, Pills will do all this. They are the great remedy of the age. They have driven from use more poisonous drugs than any medicine ever brought be fore the public. Before thefr introduction, mercury or calomel was a remedy used daily in the practice of every physician. It is now only used by the careless or ignorant. It is known as a violent mineral poison, aud would never he used by any one if all knew the virtues of that great vegetable remedy, Mandrake, as prepared by Dr. Schenck. Dr. Sckenck’s Mandrake Pills are sold by druggists everywhere at 25 ceuts per box, or sent by mail, post-paid, on receipt of price. Dr. Scheuck’s Book on Consump tion, Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, is sent free, post paid, to all applicants. Ad dress Dr. Schenck & Son, Philadelphia, Pa. A Skin of Beauty la a Jay Forever. DR. T.
