Y&uih'^Qompanson, ? THE FAR3I AND GAEDE>\ WATER SIGHTS. "Legal Adviser'' says in the New York Tribune: It is a general principle that every owner of land nponTi natural stream of water has a right to use the water for any reasonable purpose not inconsistent with a similar right in the owners ; r\$ lons3 oK/wm HoTrvu* nrwl imn him. He may take the water to supplj his dwelling, to irrigate his hind or to quench the thirst of his cattle; to use it for manufacturing purposes, such as the supplying of steam boilers or the running of water wheels or other hydraulic works, so long as such use does not affect its vol- ! ume. But this is a mere privilege running with the land, not a property in the water itself. Where the stream is small, and does not supply water more than suf- j ficient to answer the wants of the differ- ! ent proprietors living on the stream,none of th% proprietors can use the water foi either irrigation or manufacturing, hut for domestic purposes and watering stock one proprietor will be justified in consuming all the water. Twenty years' use adverse to the right of another will give the person using the the stream the right to continue to use, regardless ol j the other's rights. ; And as to the division of water, every one who owns land situated upon a stream has the following riirhts: Tc the O O I natural flow of the stream. That it shall continue to run in its accustomed channels. That it shall flow upon his land in its usual quantity, natural place and usual height. That it shall flow off his land upon the land of his neighbor below in j accustomed place and at its usual level. These rights he has as an incident to his property on the land, and he cannot be deprived of it by grant or description. If any ono shall make any change in the natural flow of a stream, to the .material injury of any owner situated upon it, or by any interference shall prevent the afroom -frnm no if c TT*Anf +n ^i/ivxiui iivai AJW>YXJLti^ ao jv ?> <10 >> yn i? w flow, he is responsible for the damage he may occasion. These rights are subject to the privilege of each one to make 11 reasonable use of the water upon his own land while it is passing along the same. It matters not what the source of the water may be, whether it be backward or fhe flowage of the same, or the water of another stream. Still, the diversion of a 3tream may be made by any one if it be returned to its natural channel before it leaves his premises. CONDITIONS FOR LONG KEEPING OP FRUIT. In what condition can fruit be placed to best preserve its good qualities and retard its decay? There seem to be twc distinct active processes in the growth and development of fruit. The first is the growth?the collecting and building up of a compound of comparatively solid structure which is unpalatable and indigestible as an. article of food. The A -t,. ^ 1.,- ?( 3CUVUUL id tuc ri?JCUlIlg <1 IVJ.IIU. U1 organic ferment; a -breaking down, softening, dissolving, rendering palatable, easily digested and valuable sis food. Ic this change the volatile oils are generated, giving flavor and character to fruit. The time required in building up fruit preparatory to ripening has not been delegated to man to control to any great extent, whether a variety is to ripen in May, July or September. Yet if man cannot control the time of completed growth, he can, during this period, by good care and cultivation, in crease greatly its size and value. In the second stage of development ripening can be hastened or retarded, acd when fully ripe, decay can be delayed, [n the second stage fruit should not be left open and exposed to atmospheric changes of temperature or moisture. ni ii i* i c ia.Yur is uy evapurauuu. jll tuu pui pose is to hasten ripening, the fruit should j be inclosed in a tight box or barrel, or j strapped in flannel, to prevent evapora- > Son, and left in a warm room of uniform j temperature. ITie greatest advantage tp the fruitgrower will result from checking too early maturity, and from preventing early docay after harvesting. His success demands a place for storage -with surroundInm? foTrniyjWo -fr\y nrtiCftM'O+IAn Hno PAn. 1U T 1V1 ? 1*1/4 VJ-i. vuw vwa # dition. is conceded by all?that the temperature must be lower than that required for growth. That thirty-two degrees is too low, seems to be the conclusion of those" best qualified to' judge. Fruit kept long at that tem perature, t aitnougn apparently un- | cnangea. wnen removea soon sinks to j decay, not apparently from over-ripeness, but from the permanent suspension of all active forces. The process of decay, not that^of ripening, takes possession. California shippers of oranges have come to the conclusion that refrigerator cars do aot pay; in fact that they have occasinriAfl arp.it. Insa Tt cpmtic fhn? tVir> r-nn litions most favorable for the preservation of fruit without loss in quality would be secured by a store-room having the temperature so low as to check (not wjioljy destroy) the forces at work In fruit, whether those forces be chemical or organic?so low that spores w^uld not be active; the air so dampjfchnimoisture would not escape, -"while the temperature and. moisture should remain uniform^ "Apples, as well as potatoes, J^i^TEcFln the ground and so covered as I J ? 1 i.

In these two cases tho temperature remains more uni-form than could result with atmospheric exposure. Cellars having springs in cnem or streams passing through them are noted for keeping apples and vegeta bles fresh, even until late the next season, ihe water acts as a regulator of both temperature and moisture. These methods, of storage approach the conditions speci- i fied above, and the nearer the approach the better the result. If these conditions are favorable for the preservation of fruit iu allots stages of ripeness, the question arises: How may uiey oe tno oest and most economically secured? The creameries and milkrooms now in use in the .Western States present the most satisfactory solution of the problem, as in them the above conditions are economically realized in their most perfect form. These rooms are inclosed on the top, bottom and sides with four dead air spaces, with f\ AArc nnl?*nn/.A ?-**>/! 4-V? ATT AMA uuuuju uwfy tuuaiiuj aim nu;v dii made as nearly air tight as possible. Fresh air is supplied at the bottom through a subterranean passage about i twelve rods long and eight to ten feet hi low the surfacc of the ear^h. This passage is two feet wide and one foot high, ^ formed of stone work. Through it a ; constant current ?>f air is passing into the room. The temperature of this air , is controled and regulated by that of the earth at the depth of the passage. Moisture is deposited if the' temperature is increased, so as to give nearly a uniform amount in the room. nLr 1.- K 1,1 A. :i? x^oacssot ^.rauiu is aumuntv iur sayingthat -while the extremes of heat and bold in those States vary from 110 degree^ tp forty degrees below, these rooms will not vary in temperature over five decrees during the year, uniformly remainnear fifty degrees.

"There is bo clover seed in the .vorld so Opod :is that raised on a sandy soil," affirms a Wisconsin farmer. There is perhaps no place on the farm where a good dressing of manure will do greater good than in an old apple orchard where the trees seem to be running out. Soot has considerable value as a fertilizer. As much as 50,000 tons of it are taken from the chimneys of London in a year. It is estimated to be worth 8100,000. and is used as a fertilizer, half a tew to an acre. A good system of rotation enables the fanner to grow, at little or no expense, his fertilizers in the soil where they are I needed. It also more than doubles'the value of the manure applied if used intelligently and judiciously. live straw, cut short, is the best material for packing eggs in barrels. Wheat and oats are more susceptible of retaining moisture, and of course this moisture lias a tendency to mold, and in time to injure the flavor of the eggs. New strawberry plantations cannot be cvorked too much. Weeds are very much disposed to grow among them, and when they have once obtained root it is very difficult removing them. It has been demonstrated that horses can be fed on ensilage with advantage, and that where they are not required to do service, as in winter, an allowance of thirty pounds of ensilage per day will keep horses in good condition. Any method of preparation that will make one acre of compact soil capable of producing three, four or five times as much as before, and the improvement continued, is worthy of adoption, even though first ccst be much more than for the land itself. Drer fcprUnrr is thfi cnmmnn bane of the pig, according to the American Aqricidturht, which advises a pint of milk and two ounces of boiled cornmeal mixed as a daily ration for the .first -week, and a gradual increase may be made, substituting raw cornmeal. A well-known Sfew Jersey nurseryman has declared that "crowding is one cause of peach yellows. If your trees are too thick pull out every other row, and as a rule you will cure the yellows. Trees are sometimes set as close sis eight or ten leet, but should be eighteen or twenty feet apart." On a recent morning every can of milk coming into New York city was examined by the State dairy inspectors. The totai number of cans inspected was 5728, and of this number only fifteen of a doubtful character were found. Samples of these were taken for analysis. They showed a light percentage of cream, indicating that the milk had been skimmed. fPl*/* r\f 4-Vin inoiutMir*r? cVjattC thflf. the milk now sent to that city over the railroads is ol better quality than ever before. A Dog's Benevolence. A dog in the neighborhood of Manchester, England, has been distinguishing itself iu a marked degree. This is not a homeless cur, but a -dog in easy circumstances, and owned by a kind and indulgent master. Too indulgent, the reader may be disposed to think, when hfe is told tkat every morning at lunch time the creature is presented with a penny, which is carried in its mouth to the shop ' 1 1 Al. -v-r.

This was unaccountable, and the more so because the animal's master had remarked that during the past week crso it had exhibited unusual impatience for lunch time, endeavoring by caressing and j tail-wagging to obtain its lunchspn money before it was due.

Aad lo and behold! it never went near the biscuit shop! Without an instant's delay it j hastened to a tripe seller's, ana mere bought and paid for * neat and tempting skewering of "paunch." But it was not foi its own eating.

A Squirrel That Throws Well. The gray squirrel in Phalon's tree on ! Cemetery avenue has been at his old tricks a^ain. He had so much fun the other afternoon that he could not resist the experience, and one afternoon he was practicing sharpshooting once more. The first intimation any one had that he had returned to his perch m the hemlock was when a number of girls who were walking under the tree were struck with several rones. Their shrieks attracted the attention of several people jn that neighborhood, and the squirrel's delighte4 chatter quickly informed them as to thft cause of the hubbub. A crowd or Doyg gathered to cliase the little animal away, and they had a nice time doing it. They used stones and the squirrel used cones. One of the boys wears a black eye as a proof that the animal can throw accu-'i rately, while there is r.O record that the j squirrel was strueK i?y any 01 ine numerous small quarries that went sailing through the branches.

Oh! how many drooping hearts, how many eyes on the watch; how many miles traveled, how many burdens carried, how many losses suffered, how many battles fought, how many victories gained, how many defeats suffered, how many exasperations endured? what losses, what hunger, what wretchedness, what pallor, what disease, what agony, what despair! Sometimes I have stopped at the corner of the street as the multitude went hither and yqn, and it lias seemed to ho a great pantomime, and as I looked upon it my heart broke. This great tide of human lifo that goes down the street is a rapid, tossed and turned aside, and dashing ahead and driven back?beautiful in its confusion and confused in its boauty. In the carpeted aisles of the forest, in the woods from which tfoe eternal shadow is never lifted, on the shore of the sea over whose iron coast tosses the tangled foam, sprinkling the cracked cliffs with a baptism of whirlwind and tannest, is the best place to study God; but in the rash in?, swarming, raving street is the best place to stady man. Going down to your place ot' 1 ?i T uua&iicraa euiu. uumu ci^owm, * vuui^v you look about?see these signs of poverty, of wretchedness, of hunger, of siu, of b-jreavement?and as you go through the streets, and come back through the streets, gather 3j in the arms of your prayer all the sorrow, 1 the losses,all the suffering,all the bereavements of those whom you pass, and present them in prayer before an all sympathetic God. Then in the great day of eternity there will be thousands of persons with whom you In this world never exchanged one word who will rise up and call yo\i blessed: anil there will be a thousand fingers pointed at you in heaven, saying: :'That is the man, that is the womau, who helped me when I was hun gry and sick, and wandering, and lost, anil heart broken. That is tho man, that Is the woman," and the blessing will come down upon you asClirLst shall say: UI was hungry and ye fed Me, I was naked and yo clothed Me, i was sick and in prison and ye visited Me; inasmuch as ye did to these poor waifs Of the streets, ye did it to Me." Again, the street impresses me with the fact that all classes and conditions of society must com!,;?ngle. We sometimes culture a wicked exciusiveness. Intellect despies ignorance. Refinement will have nothing to do with boorishness. Gloves hate tho sunburned hand, and the high forehead despises the Uq.t he^dj and the jriiQ hedgerow will have nothing to do with the wild eopsewood, and Athens liates Nazareth. This ought not to be so. The astronomer must come down from his starry revelry and help us in our navigation. Tho surgeon must come away from iiis study or tne numan organism ana | set our broken bones. The chemist must come away from his laboratory, where he has been studying analysis and synthesis, and help us to understand the nature of tho soils." J bless God that all classes of people are compelled to meet on tho street. The glittering coach wheel clashes against tho scavenger's eart. Fine robes run against the peddler's pact. Robust health meets wan sickness. Honesty confronts fraud. Every class of ]>coplo "meets every other class. Independence and modesty, pride and humility, pur ity and beastliness, frankness and hypocrisy, I meeting on the same block, in th6 same street, j in the samo city. OhJ, Vf, ineant wbgar^fe^ST: "The rich and the poor I meiSTlojiether; the Lord is the Maker of them all." I like this democratic principle of the Gospel of Jesus Christ which recognizes the fact that we stand before God on one and the same platform. Do not take on any airs; whatever position you have gained in society, you are nothing but a m&n, born of the same parent, regenerated by "the same Spirit, cleansed by the same blood,"to lie down in the same dust, to get' up in the sat&e resurrection. It is high time that we all acknowledged not only the Fatherhood of God, but the brotherhood of man. Again, the street impresses mo with the fact that it is a very hard thing for a man to keep his heart right and to get to heaven. Infinite temptations spring upon us from those places of public concourse. Amid so much affluence how much temptation to covetousness and to be discontented with our humble lot. Amid so many opportunities for overreaching, what temptation 'to extortion. Aimu so inucu uispiay, wuuu mmpuiwuu kj vanity. Ainid so many saloons of strong drink, what allurement to dissipation. In the maelstroms of the street, how many make quick and eternal shipwreck. If a man-of-war comes back from a battle, and is towed into the navy yard, wo go down to look'at the splintered spars and count the bullet holes, and look with patriotic admiration on tho flag that floated in victory from the ihasthcad. But that man is more of a curiosity who has gone through thirty years-pr tty* sharps shooting of business life, and jet sails on, victor over the temptations of the street. Oh! how many hayo gone down under tli a r.vPKsnrfl. Iftavino? not so much as the patch of canvas to tell where they perished. They never had any peace. Their dishonesties kept tolling in their ears. If 1 lia?l an ax, and could split open the beams of that fine house, perhaps I would find iu the vary heart of it a skeleton. In his very best \vtne there is a smack of the poor man's sweat-. Oh! is it strange that when a man has devoured widows' houses, he is disturbed with indigestion? All the forces of nature are against him. The floods are readv to drown him, and the earthquake to swallow him, and the fires to consume him, and the lightnings to smite liiin. But tho. children of God arc on every street, and in the day when tho crowns of heaven are distributed, some of the brightest will be given to thoso ihoii Who Tfero faithful to God and faithful to the souls of others timid the iuarts of busi ness,' proving themselves the heroes of the street. ' Mighty were their temptations, mighty was their deliverance, and mighty shall be their triumph. ' Again, tin* street impresses me with the fact that life is full of pretensions and sham. What sjibt?rfug? what double dealing, what twofacednessi Co ail the people who wish you good morning really hope for you a liappy day? Do all tho people 'who shake hands' love each other? Are all those anxious about your health who inquire concerning it? Do all want to see you who ask it/mi Vj-i *?oll9 Tlrioc nTi tho trnrl.'l Kiaw lir.lf as much as it pretends to know? Is there not many a' wretched stock pf goods with a brilliant show window? Passing up and down these streets jo ycur business and yo#r work, are you not impressed with the fact-that n*uch of society is hollow, and that there are subterfuges and pretensions? Oh! how .many there are who sfragger and stent, and how few people are xMtQral and walk. "While fojjs suafisr. and \ . i fools chuckle, and simpletons giggle, how few people are natural ana langh. The courtesan and the libertine go down tho street in beautiful apparel, whila within the heart there are volcanoes of passion consuming their life away. I say these things not to create in you incredulity and misanthropy, nor do I forget there are UiousanUs or people a great deal better than they seem; bat I do not think any roan is prepared for the conflict of this life until he Jcuows this particular peril. Ehud comes pretending to pay his tax to King Eglon, and while he stands in front of the King, stabs Viim through with a dagger until the haft went in after the blade. Judas Iscariot kissed Christ Again, the street impresses me with the fact that it is a great field for Christian charity. There are hunger and suffering, and want and wrechedness in the country; but these evils chiefly congregate in our great cities. On every street crime prowls, and drunkenness staggers, and shame winks, and pauperism thrusts out its hand asking for a ms. Her? want is most squalid and hunger is n tost lean. A Christian man, going along a st reet in New York, saw a poor lad and he stopped and said: "My boy, do you know hovy to road and write?" The boy made no answer. The man asked the question twice and thrice: "Can you read and write?" asd then the boy answered with a tear plashing on tho back of his hand. - Ho said in defiance: f "No, sir; I can't read nor write, neither! God, sir, don't want m:i to read 3nd write. Didn't he take t.way my father so long ago I never remomtrt Viiivft 5?>n him aud haw n't, I Iia/1 i to go along the street to get something to fetch homo to cat for the folks? r.nd didn't I, as- soon as I could carry a basket, have to go out and pick up cinders, and nover have no schooling, sir? pod don't want me to read, sir. I can't read nor write neither." Oh,these poor wanderers! They have no chance. Born in degradation, as they get up from their hands and knees to walk, they take their first step on the road to despair. Let us go forth in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to rescue them. If you are not willing to go forth yourself, then give of your means; and if you are fcx> lazy to go, and if you aro too stingy to help, then get out of the way, and hide yourself m the dens and caves of the earth, lest, when Christ's chariot comes along, tlie horses' hoofs trample you into the mire. Bewaro lest the thousands of the destitute of youy city, in the last great day, rise up and curse your stupidity and your neglect. One cold winter's day, as a Christian man was going along the Battery in New York, he saw a little girl seated at the gate, shivering in the cold. He said to her: *lTvTV wliM dn vnn sit tViorA f.ir tliis cold day?" "Oh," she replied, UI am waiting?I am waiting for somebody to come and take care of mc." "Why," said the man, "what makes you think anybody will come and take care of you." "Oh," she raid, "my mother died last week and I was crying very much, and she said: 'Don't cry, my dear; though I am gone and your father is gone, the Lord will send somebody to take care of you.' My mother never told a lie; she said some one would come and tase cure of me, and I am waiting for them to come." 0 yes, they arc waiting for you. Men of great hearts, gather them in, gather them in. It is not the will of your Heavenly Father that one of these little ones siiould porish. Lastly, the street impresses mo with the fact that all the people are looking forward. I see expectancy written on almost every face I meet between here and Brooklyn Bridge, or walking the whole length of Broadway. "Where you find a thousand people walking straight on, you only find one man stopping and looking hack. The fact is, God made us all to look ahead beeauso we are immortal. ' In this tramp of tho multitude on the streets I hear the tramp of .1 great host, marching and marching for eternity. Beyond the office, the store,. the shop, the street, there is a world pop-.ilous , ana tremendous. 1 urougu uoa s grace, may yon reach that blessed place. A great throng : fills those boulevards and the streets are a-rush with the chariots of conquerors. The inhabitants go up and down, but they never weep and they never toil. A river flows : through that city, With rounded and lurar- I iouS tanks, and trees of life laden with everlasting fruitage bend their branches to dip the crystal. No plumed hearse rattles over that pavement, for they are never sick. With immortal health glowing in every vein they h<w; imt Vinw tn tnwers of strength, those palaces of beauty, gloam in the light of a sun that never sets. Oh, heaven, beautiful heaven! Heaven, where our friends are. They take no census in that city, for it is inhabited by ua multitude which 110 man can number." Rank above rank. Host above host. Gallgry above'gallery, sweeping all around the heavens. Thousands of thousands. Millions of millions. Blessed arc thoy who enter in through the gate into that city. Oh! start for j * fliA t IV ivuuj* xmvu^u wiu UJWU V*. vuc great sacrifice of the Son of God, tak* up yoiir inarch to heaven. "The Spirit and'the Bride say come, and whosoever will, let him crxno and take of the water of life freely." Join this great throng inarching heavenward. All the doors of invitation are open. "And I saw twelve gates, and there were twelve pearls." TIic Sweating Sickness. Once England was attacked "by a serious epidemic, the sweating sickness, which was so called because, in the words of an old writer: "It did most stand in sweating from beginning to ending." It fif?t made its appearance in England, and" was, generally known on the Continent as the "English sweat." It was observed generally to spare foreigners in this country, and also to be specially fatal to Englishmen when it appeared abroad-; and it was surmised that the immoderate use of beer, then so commqn in England, rqidered its inhabitants particularly suscentible to tho disease. Besriunins: in 1485, in tho army of Richmond, afterward Henry VII., it spread quickly over the country with most fatal results. It seems to have been a species of violently . inflammatory fever, which suffused the wholo body with a fetid perspiration. the crisis generally ' first seizure. Like most other epidemics, it was specially fatal to healthy, vigorous men in the nrime of life, and hardiv one per I / *> X cent, of such recovered. In Loudon, where it raged with peculiar violence, two Lord Mayors and six Aldermen died in one week. This first outburst continued its ravages until the end of the year, its cessation beiug nearly coincident with a violent tempest on New Year's Day, 14S6, which was therefore supposed to have caused its disappearance. Further outbreaks, of this epidemic occurred in England in 1506 and 1517, ?t t j WJLieil JUUX1UUU SUUC1CU and in 152S and 1529 not only this coun^try, but also Franco and Germany, and, in a less degree, Holland, Sweden and Poland, were visited by the same pestilence. 'The last appearance of the sweating sickness in England was in 1551, when the disease was particularly virulent in Shrewsbury and the valley of tlie Severn.? Chambers'* Journal. ? Jl cuiaicd JUAU1UUUU a i uiii ruiiciaii?! A new departure in the conduct of funeral# iq Philadelphia is that of excluding from the burial all female relatives aud friends of the deceased, Jt is now put unusual tu see funeral notices in that city -worded as follows: t;Mala membors of tho family only are invited to attend tho funeral." In New York most, of the funerals are attended only by the male members of the family of the deceased, and in European countries this scheme has for a long time been in vogue. A well kuowii Philadelphia undertaker says: "Ladies should not be taken to the burial ground for more tTian one reason,. either in good or bad -weather. It subjects them to a great nervous strain to see the body of some member of their family or some relative lowered into the ground, and time and time again I have seen ladies faint from this nervous excitement. Sometimes there is u hitch in the dropping c-f the coffin, so that considerable difficulty is occasioned in getting it straigmenu i out. Accidents of this nature are very j prolific of nervous prostration, unci ^yqmei* should nat be submitted to them. This city is just awakening to the fact that a big funeral is a big folly.
