Boots That Alarmed.?A worthy gentleman in this city, who is constantly fearful of the speedy approach of bodily dissolution, was much disturbed the other morning on going down town to notice that one of his legs had suddenly become shorter than the other. Every time he took a step on that side his body experienced an unpleasant shot from a fall of about an eighth of an inch, and whenever his advance was assisted by the employment of the other leg, he felt himself rising an equal distance into the air. His walk, therefore, consisted of a series of wavy undulations, which, however graceful and picturesque in themselves. were extremely disquieting under the circumstances. Thoroughly alarmed by these singular phenomena ne visited a doctor, and describing his symptoms, earnestly asked whether paralysis did not sometimes give warning of its approach by such contraction of the limbs. The doctor con ressea mat it aid, ana, wnne tne aoomeu man perspired with apprehension, institua vigorous examination, the result of which was to show that the cause of the complaint was an inequality in the thickness of the soles of the boots that were worn by the Eatient. On getting up in the morning e had dressed himself hurriedly, and while he had drawn a thin dress boot upon one footj he had equipped the other with a covering which not only had a heavy double sole, but a thick felt insole also. The physician then hurriedly stated that contraction of the limbs was not an essential precursor of the paralytic shock. A Base Conspiracy Defeated.?A close guess was made in a Hartford saloon the other day. In one portion of a moneydrawer was a large number of pennies. Among the frequenters of the place was a man who was always ready to make a bet. It occurred to the proprietor of the place, who had been taken in a good many times by the betting man, to lay for him. He took a friend into his confidence, and the pair made up their mir 3 to beat the fellow with the contents of the money-drawer. So they counted the pennies and found there .were just 625 of them. Then they laid low for their opportunity. That evening the betting man was on hand, and in a manner not to excite suspicion the saloon-keeper said to his friend: "I wonder how many pennies there are in this drawer?" The betting chap pricked up his ears and remarked: "Let each of us put up $5, and the one who comes nearest to the number shall take the pot." This was agreed to, and the saloon-keeper marked 624, his friend 626, and the fellow that was really ignorant of the number, and whom they expected to trap, bv the merest chance put his figures at 625. The astonish ment or tne two snarpers was no greater than the wonder of the other at the remarkably sharp guessing. After this the betting man was hoss of the saloon.?Hartford (Conn.) Time*. ? - The Etiquette of the Cigar.?Never light your cigar with a match borrowed from one who smokes, and who lias no cigar, unless you can offer him one. If you have none to offer, suggest that you would give him a very fine La Antigueded?if you nad it. Always bi\e off the end of your last cigar when in company. Then 110 one will take it if you proffer it. Don't puff the smoke of a "straight fivecenter" into the face of a friend and ask his opinion of the quality. He will always have a suspicion that you have your cigars made for you from some of last year's white vests. There is no danger of offending the majority of ladies by smoking in their presence. If you have a fine cigar do not draw it as if you were a steam engine. Smoke slowly and make rings. That will amuse them* and be a good excuse for smoking. Never smell of a gift cigar. It denotes a suspicious mind. It is not pretty to expectorate when smoking. You might as well chew tobacco, for it adds to the vileness of the habit. In order that your friend may get the full benefit of your cigar, smoke it until it burns your mustache. Burned hair may be a sweeter perfume than your tobacco, and it shows an economical turn of mind. Keeping Grocery.?In a town up the Hudson two farmers had an itching last Spring to go into trade, and after canvassing the object for a spell, they put in $1,000 each and opened a grocery. Trade was dull, botlt had large families, and they finally concluded to aissolve partnership. In this frame of mind they consulted a lawyer, who askpfl ; "What is the value of the stock on hand?" "About $1,200." "And how much do you owe ?" "About $400." "Very well. I see my way clear. Mr. Smith, you will draw out the good will for your share, and I'll throw in a barrel of molasses for your family. Mr. Brown, you take all accounts, and I'll throw in a keg of pickles." "And what's to become of the store ?" "Oh, you'll assign all the goods to me, for the trouble in paying the debts and giving you legal advice." Those farmers sometimes sto}f to think of it as they lean on their hoes and rest their aching backs, but they cannot make it clear. Wall Street News. As it Came Out.?A man one day came running into a farmyard and hurriedly cried for a spade. The farmer coming out, demanded what he wanted with it, when the man replied that his friend had stuck in a bog and he wanted to dig him out. "How far in is he ?" inquired the farmer. "Up to the ankles." "Is that all ?" said the farmer. "Thenhe can pull himself out again. You'll get no spade here." Scratching his head, while his face bore evident signs of grief, the stranger blurted out: "Och, but, be jabers he's in head first!" The Dollar of tiie Daddies.?It is related that Secretary Evarts was once one of a party who were visiting the Natural Bridge of Virginia. As is usual, after tarrying at the top they descended and viewed the wonder from below. While there the story was told that George Washington had once stood there and thrown a silver dollar completely over the bridge. Some of the party pooh-poohed this assertion, but Mr. Evarts gravely rebuked them, saying: "You forget how much farther a dollar went in those days." Glad He Made the Rile.?"Uncle Ren," said old Bob. "here's dat ten dollars what yer lent me above a year ago." "Brudder Bob, I is greatly surprised at de course what yerself is now takin'.

A Western cyclone went through the open windows of a house, caught up all the tidies, pillow shams and a pocketbook and blew them three miles away. The man of the house refuses to go and look for the pocketbook. He is afraid he might also find the tidies and pillow shams. When a Woman Would go Wild.? "Do you believe that a woman, nowadays, would die for the object of her love?" "I don't know whether she'd die or not," answered the Benedict, "but I have known her to go wild when the trimming didn't suit her."?Brooklyn Eagle. The Mission of a Married Woman.?

FERTILIZING VALUE OF CLOVER SOD/ The gredt fertilizing value contained In'a good clover sod does not seem to be appreciated or believed by farmers generally. According to experiments and analyses made in Germany to determine the number of pounds of roots and stubble contained in an acre of clover sod to the depth of ten inches, it is shown that there were 8,5)21 pounds, which contained 191 pounds of nitrogen, besides considerable potash and phosphoric acid. The l!)ljpounds of hydrogen at 20 cents a pound would be worth $38.20. Undoubtedly the acre of sod which contained roots enough to afford such a large amount of nitrogen was produced on land in a high state of cultivation; but suppose that an acre of sod contained only one-half as much uitrogen, or 9"> pounds, worth $1*. How could the farmer supply an equal amount of fertilizers to his soil so cheaply and so easily as clover raising 2 The clover root is rich in nitrogen, a fertilizer which is the most costly of any element of plant food offered in the market. It is just the fi.r +l,t> trrmi'Mi <it" wlicnt teruu&ci utrcvicit iui i??v . and corn. A crop of wheat yielding twenty-live bushels of grain contains in the stem and grain about sixty .pounds of nitrogen, or only about one-third the amount found to be contained in an acre of good clover sod in Germany. Hence it would be inferred that a clover sod would be an excellent preparation of the land for a wheat crop and this lias been found in practice to be the case. In England much dependence is placed upon the clover sod as a preparation of the soil for the wheat crop. The clover sod is equally valuable as a preparation of the soil for a corn crop. Clover raising can be made to do great service in enriching farms and renovating worn out land. More clover should be grown, and the land seeded with it oftener. Dr. Vualcker, in England, found that the clover stid was most valuable as a fertilizer, after having been mown two seasons for hay. The roots then had attained their full development and were then richest in fertile elements. What farmers need to do, in order to avail themselves of the full advantage of this crop, is to turn the sod under when full of roots, raise a crop of grain or corn, and seed to clover again. Cut the clover two years for hay, turn under the sod, sow to grain or plant corn and seed to clover again and so on, turning under a good clover sod every three or four years until the land is renovated.

Economy on the Farm.?On the farm, and in all the details of rural and domesticlife, prudence and a just economy of time and means are incumbent in an eminent degree. The earth itself is composed oi atoms, and the most gigantic fortunes consist of aggregated items, insignificant in themselves, individually considered, but majestic \vjien contemplated in unity and its a whole. In the management of a farm, all needless expenditures should be systematically avoided, and the income made to exceed the outlay as tar as possible. Pecuniary embarrassment should always be regarded as a contingency of evil boding, and if contended against with energy and persevering fortitude, it must be soon overcome. Debt, with but little hope of its removal, is a millstone dragging us down and crushing the life-blood out of us. Be careful. therefore, in incurring any pecuniary liability which does not present a clear deliverance with the advantages which a wise use of it ought always to insure. A farmer who purchases a good farm and can pay down one-third of the price of it, giye a mortgage on the other two-thirds, and possesses the heart and resolution to work it faithfully and well, enters upon the true path to success. He will labor with the encouraging knowledge that each day's labor will lessen his indebtedness and bring him nearer to the goal where he shall be disenthralled and become a freeholder in its most cheerful sense. But without due economy in every department, in the dwelling as well as in barns aud fields, this gratifying achievement may not be reached until late in life, or may be indefinitely postponed. A prudent oversight, therefore, over all the operations of the farm, in ordei that everything may be done that ought tc be done and nothing wasted, will exert a powerful influnce in placing a family on the high road to an early independence.? Southern Cultivator. Raising Potatoes.?"Can potatoes bt raised profitably 011 the same soil for a succession of years?" The next day aftei this question was assigned to me for an answer, I commenced to dig my crop of potatoes, a part of them being raised 011 the same ground 011 which 1" raised my last yetfr's supply. The other portion of the patch was planted on land where 110 potatoes had been planted in the past seven years. All the land had been well manured with horse stable manure. In digging I found that where potatoes were grown last year they did not turn out at well as the other part of the patch did. 1 also found that the potatoes were inucli more worm-eaten and rough, consequently not so salable or profitable. Twenty years ago 1 had a similar experience, only" to n greater extent. I had just bought my farm, and it seemed to suit to plant a patch oi potatoes on land where potatoes had been planted the year previous, but the cron proved to be almost an entire failure. 1 then made inquiry of the former occupant of the land, and was informed that thai particular piece of ground had been used for a potatoe patch for a number of years in succession, and that the crop had been growing poorer and poorer each succeeding year. Hence I have arrived at the conclusion that potatoes cannot be profitably raised 011 the same soil for a succession of years. My opi 11011 is that a rotation of crops h best, not only for potatoes but for grain also. 1 have known corn to be planted year after year on the same piece of land, and nave seen me crop annuany uimimsiiing until finally no corn, or very little, would grow, although the stalks continued to grow pretty well, and it is the same way with potatoes. The vines will grow well enough, but the potatoes will not, consequently there is nothing to get any profit out oL?Isaac Eyre, Bucks Co., Pemi. Founder.?The disease in founder exists in the form of inflammation in the urinal or leaves of the feet. The stiffness and inability to move are often thought to be the best symptoms of trouble in the chest, but it is always in the feet. Remove the shoes, soak the feet in hot water one at a time once a day, and put linseed poultices on them on coming out of the water. Give him plenty of bedding and encourage him to lie down to take the weight off the feet. Continue this a week or two, then blister the coronets all around with flv blister to promote a new growth of hoof. Then stand him in a clay puddle days and take him out nights. Continue this as long as there is any stiffness or soreness. Repeat the blister of the coronets once a fortnight for a couple of months.? Chicayo Horseman. -+ Preserving Manure.?Some experiments have recently been conducted in the old country, with a view to ascertaining the best method of preserving manure so as to retain the more valuable ingredients. In one of these exnerinients the manure was allowed to accumulate under the cattle for a 1on?j period?three months or more?in specially constructed deep stalls. It was found that in every case the manure so formed was, as compared with that of the manure heaps, in a more workable condition, the ammonical salts were better preserved, and useful ingredients were present in greater proportion. Corn will shrink from the time it is husked from the field or shock in the autumn, in well-protected cribs, from 20 to 10 per cent, by spring. That is. 100 bushels will shrink to 70 or 80, according to how dry it was when gathered. Sound corn will shrink 20 per cent., so that 40 cents per bushel as it comes from the field is as good as 50 cents in the spring.

BY THE REV. J. B. SCULLER, D. D. ( Change is going on all around us, and we I ourselves are feeling its daily mutations. ' This, however, is gradual and progressive. [ i But the transition from earth to heaven, | ; through the agency of death and the grave, t involves a greater change?sudden, radical t ! and complete. "In a moment, in the twink- : i ling of an eye, at the last trump; for the 1 trumpet shall sound and. the dead shall, be j raised incorruptible, and we shall be chaii- , god." | First, in body. "Some nam will say, how .? i are the dead raised up, and with what body 1 1 do they come?" The heathen thoroughly ' understood the doctrine of the immortality 1 i of the soul, but knew nothing about the re- 1 j surrection of the body. Revelation has j | brought it to light. Paul assures us that ; ; there will be not only a resurrection, but i that the risen body will be greatly changed? ' it will be incorruptible and immortal, for it ' "is sown in corruption , it is raised in incor; rnption." Man was creation'.^ master-piece, "glorious and perfect from his Maker's hand." I lis spiritual being was a divine emanation, and bearing the impress of its high origin, was housed in a body perfect in every point, and lifted up as a suitable halt- ^ Ration. But sin has brought discord into , all its parts, and has planted the seed of disease and decay in every fibre. It not only < becomes weary with labor and with watch- > ing, and faint from hunger, but pain runs riot through every nerve and scorching fever ' dries up the sources of all its moisture. Bis v. .... .. ...I offmKnftw column mill wuniuif; m umic nc iuih.m.,v.,, , and, sooner or later, the mildew of death ? gathers thick upon its brow until the breath of life departs, and it is consigned to the ( grave, where corruption takes possession of " its disorganized parts. It is verily sown in ] corruption. ' . \ But it will be changed. From the grave 1 it will be brought forth incorruptible and ( immortal, bearing 110 evidence of past sor- f rows and wholly incapable of any new trials. ; Repaired and remodeled by the hand that . formed it at lirst, there will be no capabili- \ ty of pain or. wasting, for "there shall l>e no > more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain ; for the 1 former things are passed away." In bar- J. mony with its new surroundings and enjoy- s meats it will be perfect, changeless and ii'ii- , mortal. I It is also "sown in dishonor." The fester- ( ing ulcer will produce disorganization and f destruction of tibreseven in the living body ; ! and such process of decay may, from differ- ] ent causes,.go 011 so far as to render the once . beautiful and symmetrical Body offensive , and loathsome even to the eye of love. 1 There issoiuething naturally repulsive about a dead body so that even affection makes haste to bury it out of sight. And the very circumstances of entombing show that the 1 honor and respect accorded to the living are but limitedly extended to the lifeless clay. : The body that had been gaily decked during j life, in silks and furs, and laid to rest and 1 sleep in sheets of linen, on a carved bed. in i a sumptuous chamber, is now consigned to ; the earth and to the companionship of the 1 worm, as a suitable place and congenial sur- 1 roundings. When the immortal tenant de- ( parts the mortal body falls into a state of dishonor. I But the body will be changed, for it will " lw> "rni?i<?d in p-Inrv." In this connection I ] the word glory suggests the idea of brightness and splendor, and such will doubtless characterize the risen body. It will be fashioned like unto Christ's glorious body, and \ when he was transfigured "'his face did shine , as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light." And when John saw him in Pat. mos "his eyes were as a fiame of fire, and ! his countenance was as the sun shinethin his ; strength." ^ . The body will then be freed from every i ; marring influence of the curse which drove 1 nian from Paradise, and will bear no marks of the disgrace or vileness, or loathsomeness ' which marked it during some period of its earthly career. In beauty and form and i grace and dignity it will be perfect, for it 1 will be modeled after our elder brother, the , noblest pattern in all the universe. It will fill worthily the glorious place assigned to ; the redeemed, which is inside the circling throng of angels, and nearest to the throne. "It is sown in weakness." In its earthly structure it is weak and feeble, subject to many infirmities, and ever prone to decay. Its strength is soon exhausted by labor or ^ disease. It is continually requiring new , strength from food and refreshments, and 1 recuperation through rest and sleep. Yet, | in spite of every restorative, the strength of its mechanism sooner or later fails, and ; prostration brings it to the grave. But it will be "raised in power." In its glorified state the body will never feel languor nor 1 weariness, nor be subject to disease, nor prostration, nor ask for food. It will be ; strong and powerrui, ior it win ever oe en' gaged in active service, as there is no night ' there to invite to cessation and rest. The countless centuries of eternity may circle | away, but the strength and activity of its ' pristine youth will never abate. The fee5 bleness of earth will never be allowed to 1 enter heaven to interrupt its harmonies and j. mar its eestaeies. How can all these things be? These frail ( bodies, subject to pain and disease, easily wearied, constantly needing food and rest, . and finally exhausted and given over to dis' organization and corruption, how can they be reconstructed, even oy a divine builder, ! so as to become incorruptible and immortal, ' glorious in beauty, form and dignity, ami . so strong and powerful as to feel neither the ; weight of services norcenturies? How can ' attributes so transeendently great and glorious be based upon this trifling entity, the ; sport of earth and the feast of worms? V It i is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. The precise na- i ture and construction of this spiritual body we do not know. It will not be pure spirit, but spiritual; partaking of many, of the : characteristics of spirit, but not in a complete and perfect way so as to be changed ! into spirit. It will retain substance, and i ' shape, and form, so that friends will recognize each other. But it will 110 longer be It...?4-.....? 1?5 /v?* onlnn/tf f/\ /Id.
