' The Eeligions Card-Player. | A private soldier by tho name of' Richard Dee was taken before the Magistrate* of Glasgow for playing cardsfdaritig divine service. Tho account of it is thus given in an English journal: A sergeant commanded tho soldiers at the church, and when the parson had read tbo prayers ho took the text. Those who had a Biblo, took it out; but this soldier had neither Bible no" common prajTerhook, but ntilliuff out a pack of cards, ho spread ilium beforo him. Ho first looked at oho card and then another. The sergeant of the company saw him and said: j "Richard, pnt up the cards; this i? no placo for them." "Never mind that," said Richard. When the services was over, the constable took Richard a prisoner amlfcrought him before the mayor. ''Well," said thcynayor, "what have pou brought the soldier here for?" "For playing cards in the church." "Well, soldier, what have you to say for yourself?" "Much, sir, I hope." "Very good; if not, X will punish j'on severely." , "I have been," said this soldier, 'about six weeks on tho march. I bavo neither bible nor a common )rayer-book. I havo nothing but a ^ack of cards, and I hope to satisfy ,*cnr worship of the purity of my inentions." Then, spreading tho cards before he mayor, ho liegan witli the ace: "When I sec thjaco, it reminds me hat there is but one God. "When I see the deuce, it reminds ue of Father and Son. "When I see the tray, it reminds ne of Father, Son and Holy Ghost. "When I sec Ihc four, it reminds ne of tho four Evangelists t li:?t )reacbcd?Matthew, Mark, Luke and lohn.

Why does boiling fast render meat hard ? Bocanse tho excesstve action of heat causes the albumen of the meat to set solid, crimps up tho fleshy fibres, and prevents heat having a gradual access to tho interior. Why, when a good soup or broth is required, should the meat be put into cold water ? Because, as the heat is developed very gradually, there occurs an inter1 . / i 1. .. mixture between tne juices 01 mu flesh and the external water. The soluble and savory parts of the meat escape and enrich the soup. Why are Plows ganerally healthful and digestible? Because, being compounds of various substance.*, tlioy contain all the elements of nutrition, and, as the office of the stomach is to liquify solid food before digesting it, the previous stewing assists the stomach in this particular. What causes tho crackling noise when lard is put into a frying-pan ? Lard always contains some portion of water, and it is tho expansion of this water into steam, forcing its way through the fat which causes the crackling noise. The heat at which fat or oil boils is much greater than that of water. When tlie crackling ceases, the water has been driven oil' from the fat, and when the fat begins subsequently lo boil or bubble, its heat will be verv high. Why iti frying fish should the fat or oil be made very hot before the fish is put in ? Because if the temperature is low when the fish is put into tho fryingpan, it becomes sodden in tho steam formed by its own water; but if the oil bo very much heated tho water will be at orieo driven off. and the fish nfrolv browned hv tho scorch ini/* oil. ~ " J " J ' ' - o Win* should fish or meat that is being fried be. frequently turned? llec-auso *.I?c turning a>*i*ts the evaporation of the water. When the fish or meat is allowed to lie tco long steam is generated under it, and the sub.stniicc becomes sudden; and the moment the steam is driven olf, the surface catches to the hot pan, and beeomes burnt and broken. Why is boileJ meat so juicy and savory. Because the afction of the fire, hardening its surface, seals up the pores through which the juices might escape. It acts in the same way that t!x> Ktnliliui din info luiiliiur \v.'ili>r does upon joints of meat, but more ufl'ectually. To turn broiling meat novel* use a fork, but tongs; a fork opens an escape lor tiie juice, and wastes the best part of the moat. Why is cabbage rendered more wholesome And nutritious by being boiled in two waters? Because cabbages contain an essential oil, which is apt to produce bad e floe is; and they should be boiled in two successive waters, till tlicy are| soft and digestible. * <2> ? Cotton Seed as a Fertilizer. Cotton Feed as a manure is one of the richest and best that nature lias provided fur the farmer, suitable for tiny kind of crop and any kind of soil. What fatal economy then to sell the seed and rob the soil. It is the common belief, that cotton seed as a manure are bel'er for corn than the cotton plant, it is strange that cotton should form an exception to a rule so well established, that each j plant in a state of decomposition is its! own best manure; but the mannei of: applying the cotton seed as a manure! may bring about such a result. Th . growing cotton plant is less hardy! man luui, aiiu iiiu immuuiuiu cuilliici of its roots with hot fermenting eotLon need seems to ael in tho same manner that a:i overdose of guano ori IKv-h stable manure would do, and in-! jure tho young plant. On tho oilier! hand, it is well known if ihe f'ermen-j tation or decay of ihe col ton seed is-j allowed lo (alio plaee in the open air, j iho energy of its action as a manure! is greatly iesscned. The best method, probably, to avoid both inconveniences would he to nl. low the cotton seeds to decay in the ground which they are intended to manure, by introducing them into the ?oil some weeks or months previous lo the planting of cotton. Iiun :t furrow in the middle of the future b?d. j matter the seeds in it. and then lay iMiougli earth with the turn plow over Lho cotton seeds \o cover them thoroughly; as tliD cotton seeds decay, [he eat lii with which they are covered will absorb the ammonia and other fuses given oil'dining fermentation,i Then just before planting time bed up! n the usual way. This is probably' Lite very best way to use cottonseed is a manure for cotton. The lap root uf the cotton plant, and its lib res, will reach and a-similato the nourishment contained in the cotton seeds at period when the plant is nut, only tble to bear trie .Uimuluting e Keels of , e manure without injury, but is nost particularly in need.of it, for it! s about the time it commences to! jloi-m and fruit. Kvery bushel of oolton seed made >n a farm should bo scrupulously returned to the land ; if 1WI to the stock, .he manure should all bo saved and tpplied to the soil. It has been shown by analysis that the cotton seed from ' i 500 pound bale of cotton will takoj innually from the soil an amount of nineral and other ingredients that i i i.~ ~ ? '. 11 i < tvwuiu iiiuku uvtr iwuiuy uusncis 01 orn. IIow necessary that wo should lusband our cotton seed as one of the : liost valuable man tires. Some of our very best farmers esimate that cotton seeds are well .vorth 15 cents per bushel. At 12 en Is they are the cheapest and best iianure we can apply to our lands, if ised with skill and judgment. ? Farmer?' Vindicator *<3>? Water for Children'.?It is parienlarly with those who have been iei-ustomt'd to water drinking, that t would show its o-ood effects in after; ii'e. During tho first nine months ,'he infant is to be nourished by its not tier's milk, which serves as food iitd drink; it is gradually accustomid to other sustenance during tho >ariod of weaning. After this ia iccomplishcd, however, tho infant hould have fresh water as well as oilk. I By water drinking in childhood nd youth, tho-foundation of a durate stomach is laid, and thus a healthy ody throughout life. Tho ncrvou and blood systems aro over-excited by spices, beer, wine, ehocolatc, coffee, ctc., and thus a_constant artificial state of fever is maintained, and the process is so much accelerated by it, that children fed in this manner do not attain, perhaps, half the ago ordained by nature. Besides this, experience has taught that they generally become passionate and willful, having neither the will nor the power lo make themselves or others iiuppy Beauty and ?I)uess. ? A clever j writer says: "rrovidenco meant woman to make the world beautiful as much as (lowers and butterflies, and there is no sin in tasteful dress, but only in devoting to it too much money or too much time." This is a most sensible view, and is the true medium between the one extreme of straight and rigid simplicity and the devotion of the best energies of a lifetime to vanity and frivolty. Rut, after all, what is this rage for dress hut an effort after the beautiful ? The reason why the beautiful is not always the result, is because so mar.}' women are iijnorantor merely imitative, They have no sense of fitness. The short wears what belongs to the tal1, and brunettes sacrifice their natural beauty to look like blondes, and well they may, for blondes seem generally preferable. Bkauty Sleep. ? Sicep obtained two hours before midnight, when the uegative forces are in operation, is the rest which more recuperates the system, giving brightness to the eye and a glow to the check*. The difference between the appearance of a person '.vho habitually retires at ten o'clock and that of one who sits up until twelve is quite remarkable. The tone oi the system so evident in tho complexion, tlie clearness and sparkle of Hie eye, and the softness of the lines of the features are, in a person of health, kept at "concert pitch" by taking regular rest two hours before twelve o'clock, arid thereby obtaining the '-beauty sleep" of iho night. 1 here is a heaviness of the eye, a sallowncss of skin, and absence of that jglow in the face which renders it fresh ill VAjii tlliu 1UUI114 111 ?i|l|IL4lllance, that rcadilv distinguishes the person who keeps late hour.*. ?<c>?
