De proof of de eating vas in de puddings : I

it vas petter if a feller vill insult mit bis vife
und got her advices apout sometings or oder.
Dem American vomans don't know sometings

vhen dem hart times comes, und not so much
money comes in de house, dot makes not some

Den she says mit herself, "I efen vish

Now if a Cherman goes dead, dot don't
make a bit of tifference. Nobody vould
hardly know it, except maype himself. His
vife goes mit de peesness on shust like notings

American vomans and Cherman vomans

Vonce on a time, Brown says to me,
"Bender, I vouldn't be henshpecked." So he
vent off und got himself tight?shust pecause
his vife tells him, blease don't do dot. Den
he sits down on his pack mit de floor, und if
I am not dere dot time he never vould got

Veil, dot night, me und my vife, ve had a

The Grandpa.?The grandpa iz an individual
aged somewhere between fifty and one
hundred years, and iz a common occurrence
in most well-regulated familys.
Next to a healthy mother-in-law, they have
more biziness on hand than enny other party
in the household.
They are the standard authority on all
leading topicks, and what they don't know
about what happened sixty-five years ago, or
what will happen for the next three years to
come, is a damage for everybody to kno.
Grandpas are not entirely useless; they are
bandy to bold babies, and feed pigs, and are
very smart at mending a broken broom handle
or putting up the clothes-line on washing
days.
I have seen grandpas that churn good, but
I konsider it a mighty mean trick to set an
old man over eighty years to churning butter.
I am a grandpa myself, but I won't churn
for no concern, not if I understand myself.
I am willing to rock the baby while wimmen
folks are biling soap; I am ready to kut
rags to work into rag carpet; they can keep
me hunting hens' eggs, or picking green kurrants;
or I'll even dip kandles or kore apples
for sass, but I won't churn.
I have examined myself on the subject;
and I'll bet a jacknife that Josh Billings
won't churn.
Grandpas are poor help at bringing up
children; they are full of precept and katekism,
but the young ones seem to understand
that grandpa minds them a heap more than
they mind grandpa.?Josh Billings.
Sharp Practice.?Some time during last
year, a young sprig of the law was admitted
to the New York bar. His father, a prudent
old man, gave him a hundred dollars to purchase
a library of books, and told him that
was all he could do for him at that time, but
that by industry, prudence and immediate enforcement
of payment of all sums of money
that might be his, he had no doubt that he
' ' a /? 1 __ xL_ .1J

man dropped into John's office, and borrowed
fifteen dollars of the money he had given him,
promising to pay it by twelve o'clock next
day. "All right, dad," said John ; "give me
your memorandum." The next day at twelve
pa did not appear; and John immediately
served a writ upon him, and put a bailiff in
his house, just as the old man was sitting down
to dinner.
She had just returned from a visit to a
married couple, and as she threw her hat on
the sofa, she turned up her nose, put on a look
of disgust, and said, "If there is anything on
this earth that is hateful, it is to see married
people kissing and hugging and gushing before
folks."
Her little brother crawled out from under
the sofa, where he had been hunting a stray
marble, and, addressing his sister, said: "You
and George is all the time kissing each other
before me; but you isn't married yet, and
then I suppose I'm too small to be folks."
That little boy told another boy next morning
that it wasn't always a sign when your
ear burned, that somebody was talking about
you.

t&~ There is a story of two Irishmen who
bought a little barrel of whisky in partnership
to trade with on the Derby day. They
agreed that neither should drink without
paying. On the way one drank a glass and
paid his partner threepence. The other then
had a glass and returned the threepence.

gone, and they had honestly paid for every
drink, and were bewildered to find that they
- had only threepence between them.
I?* A schoolmaster tells the following story
: "I was teaching in a quiet country village
in the central part of New York State.
The second morning of my session, I had
leisure to survey my surroundings. Amidst
the scanty furniture I espied a three legged
stool. 'Is that the dunce block ?' I asked a
little girl of five. The dark eyes sparkled,
she codded assent, and the lips rippled out,
'I suppose so, the teacher always sits on it.'
The stool was unoccupied that term."
"What do you mean by humbugging,
madam?" asked a homely barrister of a lady
whom be was cross-examining. "I don't know
as I can exactly say, sir; but if a lady was to
say to you that you're a handsome man, that
would be what I'd call humbugging."
and fireside.
GERMAN MILLET.
German or golden millet is one of the most
productive grass crops that can be grown, and
furnishes an excellent, rich hay of great value
for feeding cattle, sheep and horses, and it
is especially good for young stock and milch
cows. When in the blue grass region of Kentucky
last August, we noticed many fields of
it yielding immense crops. Many feeders
there of mules and young cattle fed it with
profitable results. We give the following
from one who has successfully raised it for
some years:
It is sown the same as oats, from three pecks
to one bushel to the acre. The blade first
resembles young corn, coming out alternately
^ ~ n^nllrn vnkink
every uv? iuuucb uu tun oun*o, nuivu |>u.i
from four to seven feet high, having a large
head, one and one-fourth to two inches in diameter
and eight to ten inches long; one
head yields one-fourth to one-half pint of
seed. It matures in about ten to twelve
weeks from the time of sowing, ripens slowly,
and never falls down and wastes. It resists
the severest storms. The time it will stand
after it is ripe, and the manner in which it
resists wind, are wonderful. It will yield
from forty to one hundred bushels of seed,
and two to four tons of hay to the acre; will
grow in wet or dry, rich or poor land, and is
the surest crop I have ever raised, and the
most profitable. One rain on it will insure a
sure crop, and it is not like the old, common
millet or Hungarian grass. Being a great
fertilizer, it leaves the ground in a light, mellow
condition, and free from everything that
grows, the growth being so luxuriant that it
Aiif AnnrrtKinf* olao Ttl
nisi ailjr smuiuois UUI ?tu>;?iiu6
should not be sown until danger of frost is
over. It is sown in this climate from the
20th of April to the 1st and 15th of August,
with good results. It can be cut as hay, but
the nicest way is to cut as oats or wheat, and
bind in bundles. I would recommend it unhesitatingly
to aDy farmer as the very best
thing he can grow.?Marietta ( Oa.) Journal.
Summer Vermin.?Fowls are subject to
the attacks of two kinds of vermin, which in
summer are worse than at any other season.
The more common is a louse; the other is a
mite, which has the appearance of a minute
spider. The louse lives on the bodies and
feathers of the fowls, while the mite conceals
itself in the cracks and crevices of the henhouse,
coming out at night and preying upoD
the fowls and then returning to its hiding
place. The louse may be got rid of generally
by providing the fowls with dry ashes, sand
and dust, in which they can bathe themselves.
It is a good plan to sift ashes and dust for this
purpose, addiDg to them some flour of sulphur.
Place the mixture where it can be easily used,
and the fowls will soon free themselves from
vermin. The mite is usually destroyed by
applying a good coat of white wash to the
poultry house, but the surest way is to fumigate
the house thoroughly. It is necessary to
stop all the openings of the house as tight as
possible. Take an old pan or iron pot and
place some live coals in it; then take tobacco
(cigar refuse will answer) and lay on the coals
aa a top layer, after which put on a sufficient
quantity of rolled brimstone, broken up.
Have everything in readiness before you begin.
Shut the door up tight before you fumigate,
and the sulphur fumes will do their
work effectually.
Feeding Onions and Meat.?The Poultry
Nation says that onions are an admirable
food for fowls, or rather an adjunct food. If
given regularly, they will help prevent the
more ordinary diseases of poultry. Meat is
said by some to be an essential food for poultry,
especially in winter, when they cannot get
the worms they pick up in summer. Others
again, maintain that the habit of giving meat
to poultry is productive of grave evils?the
cause of many of the worst forms of disease
which affect them ; by these authorities it is
called unnatural food, inasmuch as the digestive
organs of the birds are not fitted to assimilate
it. There must, we think, be some
mistake in all this; for we know of a surety
that fowls devour, when they get it, and entirely
of their own accord, an enormous quantity
of animal food; here it is cooked ; the
game found in nature's garden is raw. If
meat is unnatural food for poultry, they certainly
have an unnatural appetite for it.
Throw in a lump of meat, among a lot of
fowls; if it is not a bone of contention, it is
something like it, so eager are all to grab at
it. We believe the habit of giving too much
food to poultry in a short space of time is a
bad one. If you notice their habits you perceive
that the process of picking up their food
under ordinary, what we may call the natural
condition, is a very slow one.
Hog Cholera.?This disease is the same
as pure typhoid tever in man ; tne large nowels
are ulcerated, according to the amount of
poison absorbed, and the time between the taking
of the disease and death varies with the
appearance of the body. The disease is the
most contagious known. It is carried by
chickens and birds from one lot of hogs to
another. So long as bogs run at large it can
never be stayed ; hogs penned in the centre
of a large field and watered from a well never
get it unless carried to them by birds.
However, to prevent the hogs from getting
the disease is much easier than to cure them
after they have taken it. Give the hogs all
they will eat of corn^slops a little sour, slops
sweet, cold, cooked or raw; charcoal, lime
(slacked and dry preferred,) rotton wood,
wood ashes, hen manure and bricks broken in
small pieces. Give them good fresh water
twice, or at least once, a day. Let them have
airy quarters and a good warm place to sleep
and they will have no hog cholera. Keeping
too many hogs together and feeding slop
three times a day, without fresh water, are
the principal causes of the disease.
The Soil for Grass.?Poor land in no
country will raise rich grass. But there is a
difference, other things being equal, in the
natural adaptation of soils to grass. Sandy
soils are unfavorable to it. This want of natural
adaptation may, however, be compensated
by extra pains in preparation and manuring.
Tight clay soils are, at the South, best
adapted to grass. Wherever such a soil is
either naturally or artificially rich, grass will
thrive in it. Some of these soils are unsuited
to any other crop from their compactness, unless
it be oats. For instance, what are called
"pipe clay lands," will bring neither cotton
or corn to advantage, but will produce excellent
herds-grass. There are thousands and
tens of thousands of acres of this pipe clay
land, now utterly valueless to their owners,
which would make fine herds-grass meadows.
C. W. Howard.
Old-Fashioned Farming.?What would
you think of the cabinet maker who should
undertake to make furniture on a large scale
by means that were used eighty years ago,
sawing out all the parts by hand instead of
by machinery. How would a tinner get
along with the old fashioned tools, disregarding
the use of die and stamps ? How would
the wagon-maker succeed shaving spokes by
hand, mortising hubs by chisel and mallet?
Or how the shoe-maker, disdaining sewing and
pegging machines ? Well they might possibly
make a living as they turned out their
clumsy jobs, while others working by improved
and best methods are gettiug rich. The
old-fashioned farmer with poor tools, and disdaining
book knowledge, and the modern
farmer with the best of tools and with his head
full of ideas, are parallel cases.?Micawba.
Loose Teeth.?When the front teeth become
loose without any apparent cause, a
diseased state of the gums may be apprehended.
Sometimes the teeth may be set firm
again by washing out the mouth, three or
four mornings running, with a tincture of
! myrhh, about a teaspoonful in a third of a
tumbler of water. But if this will not succeed,
use the following for a mouth wash :
Infusion of roses, six ounces; borax, one
ounce; honey of roses, one ounce.

PARABLE OF THE LABORERS. s
Matthew xx: 1-17. e
The design of this parable, if we catch the t
spirit of the passage, is to illustrate the sov- \
ereignty of God. The parable stands in close v
connection with the last words of the previous ]
chapter: "Many that are first shall be last; e
and the last shall be first." We feel the more c
confident in asserting that these words are c
the key which unlocks the parable, because v
the Saviour, after having concluded the para- t
ble, says in the 16th verse: "So the last shall |
be first and the first last." To say that the t
first is, or shall be last, and the last is, or <j
shall be first, i'b one of those paradoxical ex- f
pressions which frequently occur in the Script a
tures. The Saviour framed this parable of v
the laborers in the vineyard to illustrate this ]
thing. After he concluded the parable, he 1:
said, in effect: "So, or in this way, it is shown, e
or illustrated, that the first shall be last and a
the last first." <3
The sovereignty of God is at once the most 1
mysterious and most sublime subject that can "
be contemplated by the human mind. In s
this passage this subject is brought to view, ?
first in sending the laborers into the vineyard s
at different hours of the day, and second in 1
the manner in which the householder settled <j
with the laborers. In fact, we might say that
the sovereignty of God is brought to our
view, in that the "idlers" were sent into the
vineyard at all.
The great difficulty, and perhaps the only t
difficulty connected with the sovereignty of i
God, is that it seems to be impossible for i
God to be an absolute sovereign, and man at f
tbe same time to be a free agent. That God
is an independent sovereign, acting "according
to his will in the army of heaven, and
among the inhabitants of the earth," is capa- j.
Kl? nf dpmonstrftt.inn from the works of Crea
W.W V. ^ t Q
tion and Providence, and is at the same time .
1
the plain, explicit and oft-repeated declara- ^
tion of the Scriptures. On the other hand, ^
that man is a free agent, is a doctrine of the .
Bible, and a fact of which every human being
is conscious. God exercises his sovereign- j
ty over everything in the Universe. It is not
limited. His Kingdom has no end. No t
creature is too small to escape his notice, and (
none is so large as to dispense with his sov- ^
ereign care and control. God governs the
gases, the winds, the vapors, the-clouds and ^
everything animate and inanimate. The sway ^
of his scepter is felt in heaven, on earth and {
in hell. Notwithstanding this, every man j
feels that he is free. He is conscious of the {
fact, and God says he is free. We are not
able to comprehend how this can be ; much {
less are we able to explain it. But we dare
not doubt it, unless we are prepared to contradict
the teachings of God's word and
works and call in question our own consciousness.
Awful as is the sovereignty of God, there is
something in it that is very consoling. It is ,
the rock upon which we can plant our feet j
and cherish a hope. Were either the winds
or the clouds or any portion of creation, in the y
slightest degree, under the control of creatures,
the world would be ruined in less than
C
a moment. Icebergs and tropical suns, flam- ^
ing fires and overflowing floods, would be raingled
in wild confusion. No man could lie
down at night and expect to see another morning.
(
In the parable of the laborers sent into the
vineyard, the sovereignty of God, as already 8
said, is brought clearly into view. At dawn ?
of the morning, the householder went out to
hire laborers. He agreed with the laborers r
for a penny a day. Again, he found idlers at ^
nine o'clock in the morning, at noon, at three
o'clock in the afternoon and one hour before ^
sundown, standing in the streets idle. All
these he sent into his vineyard, promising to
give each one of the different laborers "what
is right." Those laborers who were hired
early in the morning were promised a penny?
a denarius?fifteen and one-half cents: the 8
others, "what is right."
We must not put too much emphasis on the
words "Aired" and "penny," or we will find ^
ourselves in a difficulty out of which we ^
cannot get and be consistent with the general j
scope. If we give the word hired its usual
meaning, we may come to the conclusion that ^
whatever good God, the great householder,
bestows upon any of us, is due us. Hired ?
here means contracted with, or it may, as it
often does, mean to induce or solicit for our ?
own good. God's essential glory is not ad- ^
vanced by anything that we do, or by any
good that he bestows upon us. His declarative
glory is, and all grace is, for the good of ^
the creature that receives it. The principle
designed is to be exemplified, would not have ^
been altered, had the householder promised j
the hirelings half a penny or ten pennies.
The particular sum of money is of no impor- ?
tance. It was in the householder an act of
sovereignty to promise any sum. Every ?
grace that God bestows upon any of Adam's ^
race?the idlers in the parable?is done in
the exercise of his marvelous sovereignty. c
The sinner deserves to die the death that never "
dies: but God, in the exercise of his sover
J!
eign love, gave his Son to die for sinnerB.
The sinner deserves to be driven away into *
the lake that burns with fire and brimstone;
but God, in an act of his sovereign mercy,
invites him to come into the vineyard and V
labor, and he will give unto him eternal life? 0
not as a reward of his labor, but because ?
of obedience to the heavenly command, and !
receiving eternal life in the sovereign purpose '
of God, are inseparably connected.
When the time for settlement came, the ?
steward was instructed to call the laborers *
and pay each one a penny, beginning with ^
the last. When those who began to labor ^
soon in the morning saw those who labored '
only one hour, receiving a penny, they began ?
to think within themselves that they would ^
receive more than a penny. Such, however,
was not the case. All received a penny. c
Those who had labored longest began to mur- y
mur and complain. The householder replied
to their murmurings that he had done no one d
any wrong. He had agreed or contracted 1
with the first laborers for a penny a day. He c
had paid them a penny, and, consequently, ^
had acted justly and honorably. The prin- *
ciple upon which the householder acted was
that it was lawful for him to do as he saw fit t
with his own. b
In the same way, God the great household- t
er of the universe, deals with all his crea- ^
tures. He is faithful in carrying out all his '
contracts with any and all of his creatures ; a
but at the same time he displays his sovereignty
even in his grace. As a God of provI
idence, "he raiseth the poor out of the dust, c
and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill." 8
Psalms, cxiii: 7. The reason that is assigned
i for his thus acting is, that the "pillars of the
I earth are the Lord's." 1 Samuel ii :8. Paul n
I could say, "What I am I am by the grace of t
i God." 1 Cor. xv: 10. a
To the carnal mind there is something that
9 unpleasant in the sovereignty of God. Sinill
human nature would arrogate to itself
overeignty. That spirit of rebellion which
b in us all by nature, is ready to prompt us
m all occasions to exclaim with an air of
elf-assumed dignity and importance, soverignty
to ourselves. "This," says human naure,
"is a free world. Who is lord over us ?"
iVe should remember that we are creatures?
Forms of the dust?and God is the Creator.
?or near six thousand years, God has govrned
this world. To-day, of the countless
nillions of creatures that rejoice in heaven or
Qove upon this earth, or writhe in a world of
roe, there is not a single one that is not conrolled
by God.
We should also reflect that God so governs
bis world as not to interfere with our freelom.
Every human being is as free as it is
lossible for a creature to be. God leaves us
ill to the freedom of our own choice. Such
pas the condition of Adam in the garden of
Paradise; and such is the condition of all
lis descendants. God drags, by force, no
an to heaven. No man is taken to a seat
it God's right hand against his will. God
Irives to hell no man against his will.
'Choose ye this day," says God, to all men,
'whom ye will serve." "If God be God,
erve him, but if Baal be God, serve him."
5in dug the pit of perdition, and it is sin that
ends men there and retains them there in
lopeless despair. Every ransomed son and
laughter of Adam may say:
"Grace first inscribed my name
In God's eternal book ;
'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took."
Still, although it is grace that rescues from
he ruins of sin?grace that leads "our rovng
feet to tread the heavenly road," every
ndividual is free to accept or reject that offered
grace.

FOLLOW CHRIST.
It is to be feared that many of us who
lave a name to live, are, in reality, spiritually
lead. We have only a vague idea of what
t is that constitutes a true follower of Jesus
Christ. Satan, the sleepless enemy of souls,
lecoives us in countless ways. He whispers
n our ears, that all that God requires of us, is
o make a decent profession of religion and
ive uprightly before men. In every conceivible
way he turns our attention away from
he Saviour, and induces us to centre it upon
lurselves. The great enemy of all good puts
is to work that we may do for ourselves what
ve cannot do, and what Christ, the Lamb of
Sod, has done for us. The energy of our naures
is exhausted in vain attempts to make
in atonement for sin, whilst we totally negect
to try to do what God requires of us to
lo. Instead of being co-workers with God in
>ur sanctification, we are going about vainly
sndeavoring to establish a righteousness by
vhich we can be justified. Too often we lose
igbt of Jesus Christ We conclude that it is
in easy matter to get ready to die. It is a
vork of so little importance, we think, that
t can be performed in a few hours, when the
ummons to depart is placed in our hands,
resus bids us do one thing ; we do another.
3e charges us to set our affections supremely
ipon him. We too often divide our affections.
liVe try to serve God and Mammon. "Follow
ne," is the command which king Emmanuel
;ives to all. What is it to follow Jesus?
)ne answers, he is a follower of Jesus, who is
t member of the visible church.
It is true that the overwhelming majority
if the followers of Jesus are members of the
3burcb ; but in no place in the Bible is it
aid, or even intimated, that all the members
if the visible church are followers of Christ.
The devil often urges men and women to
nake a profession of religion as a matter of
he first importance; Jesus Christ never does.
The Saviour cares nothing for our barren professions.
He makes but one demand of us ;
tut it is so great that it includes everything
re have. He does not ask us for our propery,
for our gold or our silver, for our houses,
ir our lands. If he were hungry he would
tot tell us. The cattle on a thousand hills
,re his. All the gold and silver are his. The
rorld and the fullness thereof is his. Jesus
omes to each of us with the gentleness of a
larent, and with the authority which he has
ver us as our maker, preserver and redeemer,
ie says to every one, "give me thy heart."
f he gets our hearts, he will get all we are
,nd have; and if we withhold from him our
learts, he will have nothing we have. If he
;ets our hearts he will get our professions.
Ve will join the church and be ready to give
iur bodies a living sacrifice, wholly accepta>le
to God. Nothing but a physical impossilility
can keep the man who gives his heart
" * r?!? -r
0 Jesus irons matting a pruiessiuu ui rengiuu.
When Jesus commands us to follow him,
ie deals candidly with us. We are told that
re must turn our backs upon the world.
)ur affections must be centred upon him.
Ie must reign in our hearts to the expulsion
f every idol. We are required to love
esus; if need be, to the hating of everything
lse. We must, before we begin to follow
esus, take up our cross. The cross is a sym01
of everything that is undesirable to the
arnal mind. We must deny ourselves all
ugodliness and worldly lusts, and live sobery,
righteously and godly in the world. To
ive and act as the men of the world live and
ct, is not to follow Jesus, but to follow the
evil.
The joys which are experienced by those
rho follow Jesus, are heavenly. They are
weeter than honey, they are more to be deired
than silver and gold. To those who
allow Jesus he is a sun and shield. He gives
