A Kind Hearted Man.?Humane
father (to son)?"Henry, you ought to be
ashamed of yourself to catch a young bird
and put it in a cage as you have done.
That Dird's liberty was iust as sweet to it
as yours is to you. God bestowed just as
much care upon the creation of that bird
as He did upon the creation of you. How
would you like it if some great beast
should catch you and shut you up just to
hear your cries ? I don't see that going to
Sunday-school has done you any good. I
had hoped, so fondly, too, that in the matter
of kindness of heart you would takeafter
your mother and me, but you do not.
Now don't you feel ashamed of yourself?"
Henry (much downcast)?"Yes, sir."
Father?"I should think that you would.
I had intended to let you go out into the
country with me, but I can not allow such
a cruel boy to accompany me."
TTfinrv?"Please let me cro."
Father?"Oh, no."
Henry?"Why?"
Father?"Because you might bring back
a lot of birds and shut them up in a cage." ,
Henry?"No, I wouldn't."
Father?"I can't trust you. I never
thought that a child of mine would commit
such an outrage. Why it makes me
shudder to think of it. What possessed
you to imprison that bird ?"
Henry?"Mr. Patterson told me that if
I'd catch it and put it in a cage for him
he'd give me two dollars."
Father?"Ah, and did you get the mon-'
ey?" |
Henry?"Yes, sir."
Father?"Oh, well, then, it's all right.
I didn't know but what you shut it up ;
merely for your own amusement. Let me
have the two dollars."
Far from the Maddening Crowd.? J
I had been staying at an Indiana farm-!
house all night, and next morning the |
former said he would give me a lift into |
town. When he was ready to go he called :
to his oldest boy:
"Bill is that shotgun loaded with salt
for tramps?"
"Yes." I
"Got the gates shut so that no mad dogs
can git in ?"
"Yes."
"Well, keep a lookout fbr windmill,
lightning rod, organ and sewing machine,
agents. Don't have any truck with peddlers,
or poultry buyers. Don't let in any
- patent gate or wire fence men. Keep
clear o' patent hay-forks and don't waste
no time on churns, force pumps or icecream
freezers, bag holders, patent barrels,
fruit trees, wagon jacks, nor owl
traps."
"And say, Bill." called the old man after
we had driven forty or fifty rods, "don't
buy no cure for the heaves, no fireproof
paint, no patent gate hinges, pitchforks
nor cyclopaedias.''
We haa driven about three miles when
he suddenly pulled up with an exclamation
of disgust. "Whatis
it?"
"Hang my hide if I didn't clean forget
to warn Bill against Bohemian oats, New
Zealand clover and them pesky insurance
agents! Well, it's too late now, but I
guess I kin git home before the mob overpowers
him."
She Preferred the Burglars.?
"The fact is," said old Mrs. Jinks, who
was in Austin, Texas, on a visit, "the
fact is, my dear Mrs. Binks, I-had the
narrowest escape from being ruined the
other day you ever heard of."
"How was it?" asked Mrs. Blinks,
growing interested.
"Well, you know I sold our house and
lot last month and had the money ready
to deposit in the savings bank the next
morning, which was the very day of its
failure."
"Yes, I read about it."
"I slept with my money under my pillow,"
continued Mrs. Jinks, "and the
next morning when I got ready to start
for the bank the money was gone."
"Where had it gone to ?"
"Some burglars had taken it during the
night?an hour after the bank burst up.
Did you ever hear of such a remarkable
piece of good luck ?"
"I don't see where the luck comes in.
You lost your cash all the same."
"Yes; but they caught the burglars, and
on condition of my not prosecuting, they
returned me fifty cents on the dollar. The
bank only panned out fifteen. There's no
use talking, Hanner, between savings
banks and burglars. I'll take my chances
with burglars every time."
She Always Went.?A Washington
lady, in writing from New Hampshire,
speaks of the lack of progress which prevails
in many of the farming districts of
the State. She is stopping at a farm house
in a very quiet and lonely neighborhood,
where a few summer boarders occasionally
go. The owners of the farm, Mr. and Mrs.
, are in moderate circumstances, but in
many respects they are sadly behind the
fimes.
j "I asked these people," writes the Wash^
^ngton lady, "if it did not become exceedtagly
monotonous living where they saw
yao few people, for their nearest neighbors
were nearly a mile away. Mrs. replied
that sometimes they were a little lonesome.
I suggested that as they were so
near Boston, they, of course, went to that
city occasionally, where they could see
more of what was going on in the world."
"4 0 yes," said Mrs. , 4I always accompany
my husband whenever he goes to
Boston.'
44 4In that case, I suppose, you have gone
there three or four times this year, at least.'
44 4Land, no,' she replied; 4it is exactly
thirty years this summer since Silas and I
were last there.'
4 4And yet she always went to Boston
whenever her husband did."
His Half Son.?An old negro was
scolding his son when a man who happened
to be passing along said: "You don't
seem to be pleased with the boy."
"No, sah; I ain't pleased wid him er
tall. Dar'sa good many pints about him
dat I ain't got no use far. He ain't right
bright in his jedgment, an' he's about the
laziest human pusson I ever seed in my
borned life. But I couldn't 'spect much
better of him, caze he's only my ha'f son,
no how.
"Your half son !" the man exclaimed.
"Yas, sah, dat's ail he is?jes my ha'f
son."
"Why, how do you make that out?"
"Easy ernuff, caze I dun been maird
twice."
"That don't make any difference."
"But I reckon it do. De chillun dat
wuz borned endurin' my fust wife's lifetime
is dat boy's ha'f brudder an' sisters,
an' ez da is my chillun, I 'lowed dat I was
his ha'f daddy. It 'peer ter me dat it take
a mighty long time ter get er p'int through
er white pusson's head, nohow."
Wanted to Die Happy.?Moses Rabenstein
had gone to Europe on business,
and, of course, held a return trip ticket.
When in London he was taken dangerously
ill, and for awhile it looked as if Moses
was going to meet his namesake.
"I don't vand to die here," he moaned.
"I vant to go pack home."
"Do you want to die there?" asked the
heartless nurse.
"No, I don't vant to die dare neider;
Eud eef I haf ter tie I vant to die ad j
ome," groaned the careful Moses.
"What difference does it make? This!
country is good enough, I think."
"Mine frent, ven I dells you dot eef I tie

A Vain Search.?Yellow?"Why,
Brownly, how b%d you look this morning.
Did you sleep any last night ?"
Brownly?"Not a wink."
"Anybody sick?"
"I am."
"What's the matter ?"
"Well you see my wife has been in the !
habit of going through my pockets at j
night, and I thought what was good for
the gander was good for the goose, so after
she fell asleep last night I arose and set out
to go through her pocket."
"Get anjdhing?"
"No. Searched the dress over and over,
spent the whole night at it, but couldn't!
find the pocket."?[Boston Courier.

CURING PEA VINES.
A correspondent of The Cultivator asks
for my method of curing pea vines for hay.
If the condition always remained the same,
it would be quite an easy matter to establish
a fixed plan for doing farm work. I ndeed,
if the conditions were always the
same, a few years' experience would soon
establish a farm policy that every farmer
would recognize and adopt. What your
correspondent then really wants to know is,
not how to save pea vines when everything
is favorable, but when the weather, the labor,
the teams and everything else is out of
joint. And yet the way to answer the enquiry
is to tell how to save them when all
tnings are favorable, and then vary the
plan to suit the changed conditions.
I find it best to cut pea vines just about
the time the young peas begin to form.
Cilt later they are not so good for food, and
it is more difficult to save the leaves. If
barn-room is abundant I would prefer to
cure them in the shade, after they had
slightly wilted. If the leaves are allowed
" 1
10 CriSD in ine sua mey nrc niiuuai buic w
fall off. It is hardly possible to furnish sufficient
barn-room to cure any amount of
vines, as they require to be spread in order
to prevent heating. As a substitute for
this, many have suggested rail pens with
rail floors, distant two or three feet up to
the top. This plan I abandoned some
years ago, as it requires about one rail to
every pea vine, and then I found the vines
spoiled.
When, therefore, all things are favoraable.
I rely largely upon outdoor curing.
I allow the vines to lie as cut until the
leaves are pre^y well wilted. I then rake
them up with a horse rake and leave them
in rows across the field. After remaining
a day or such a matter in this condition, I
put them into small conical cocks, as I do
clover, about five feet high and about five
or six feet in diameter at the base. They
stay about another day in this way, and I
then put two or three of these cocks together
ana let them stay for several days, depending
altogether upon their condition.
This I do when the weather is decidedly favorable.
If it is not, after remaining a day
as raked up across the field, I draw them
to the barn and put three or four loads in a
place, and after a few days I have them
lorked over and aired and moved just
enough distance to say they are moved.
This plan of taking to the barn at once I
much prefer, if the vines are short, as they
are then secure against possible bad weather.
If the vines are long, it is no easy
matter to move them, as any farmer will
soon find who tries it. They become quite
tangled, and, in addition to the great expenditure
of strength, they are much damaged
in loss of leaves.
Altogether, I practice this plan most frequently
: After lying just as long as I am
willing to risk them exposed to tne weather,
I take them to the barn and fork them
over as necessity may demand.
It makes troublesome forage, but I find
peavine hay most excellent food, and when
the farmer gets in the habit of curing them
the job does not seem so formidable. If at
home when the work is being done, I can
ftlwavs savfi them successfully: when
trusted to others i sometimes lose them.
I always put my stubble fields in pea
vines to be saved for hay. Farmers who
five much time to cotton, of course cannot
o this without a good deal of extra help.

THE COVERING OF'SMALL GRAIN.
The impression is quite common among
farmers that grains, like oats, that are liable
to be winter killed, should be covered
deep to enable them to withstand cold.
Hence, the common practice of putting in
oats with a turn-plow. Such opinions,
however, are often based on theory ana
not on observation and experience. One
says that a seed covered several inches
deep is better protected from cold than
one at or near the surface, and so is the
lower part of the plant that springs from
the seed. This seems plausible, and he at
once proceeds to act upon it, and covers
all his grain deep. He does not cover
some deep, and some shallow, and note the
difference in results the same winter. He
may have covered some deep one year and
some shallow another year, and compared
the two, with the advantage on the side of
the deep covering. But this would not be
conclusive, because other conditions besides
the depth of covering might have
been different in the two years. One winter
might have been dryer than the other,
the changes from warm to cold may have
been more sudden in one than the other.
The spell of cold may have been longer in
one than the other, and so with many
other points. It is an exceedingly difficult
thing to get conditions exactly alike in two
experiments made side by side the same
year. Still more difficult when made in
different years.
We have made some observations on
oats plowed in, and volunteer oats from
seed scattered on the surface, the same
winter, and one which was very destructive
to oats. No difference in the amount
killed would be observed. Winter killing
is sometimes caused by grain which has
rooted directly on the surface, being so
heaved up by the frost that the roots are
lifted off the ground, lose their contact
with the soil and dry up. Of course, in
such case the plant perishes. Grain on or
verv near the surface is. of course, liable
to this accident; hence, 'we conclude that
some covering is desirable. But whether
the covering should be, therefore, very
deep, is entirely a different matter. A
A covering of one inch would be insufficient
to obviate this difficulty. Is anything
gained by covering deeper than
that? All know that grain is not toprooted.
that they send out numerous roots
from the stem just as soon as it emerges
from the grain, but, if a grain is planted
deep, another whirl of roots will soon form
around the stem higher up, and nearer the
surface of the ground, and those first formed
perish. In other words, you cannot
force small grain to be deep rooted, by
planting them deep. They will have their
roots near the surface in spite of all you
can do. Not only is this true, but it is also
true that when grain is planted very deep
it has to struggle so long in getting up
to the surface that it becomes quite exhausted
and makes a weak plant. Moreover,
direct experiments in planting grain
at different depths, show that from one to
three inches constitutes the limits and
that the strongest plants and best yields
come from seed planted within those limits.?

Leaks ox the Farm.?1The leaks in the
roofs of the farm buildings are not all that
many farmers have to contend with. We
see many farmers buying high-priced imfdements,
and when through with them
eaving them where last used, either in furrow
or in the stubblefield, until wanted the
next spring, and then losing valuable time
in going to the shop for repairs, or, what is
worse, going to the store for new ones.
Have a place or shelter for every machine,
and when the hired help or owner himself
is through using, put in the place assigned
for it. Some will say that takes time. To
be sure it does: but is it not better to have
tools that are nt to use at any time than it
is to step the team when busy to go to town
to get them fixed and thereby cause a leak
in the pocket-book ?
Again, many will keep scrub stock and
breea from year after year because the owners
of blooded stock ask too high a price for
the services of their stock. Then you may
see, on riding through the country, dilapidated
buildings, and the owner will say he
is not able to repair them, out on inquiry
you will find that he will spend enough
money for whisky and tobacco to keep
them in repair.
Another leak is the hiring of cheap help,
mere eye servants, and leaving them to the
work, while the proprietor is in town talking
politics or sitting on the fence discussing
neighborhood gossip with some one as
shiftless as himself.
These are but a few of the leaks that
might be mentioned, for pages might be
filled in enumerating the things, both small
and great, that keep the farmer plodding
along, always in debt and eternally growling
about hard times.~[Western Plowman.
Common Salt for Neuralgia.?It is
not generally known that common salt is

in most instances instantaneously, by the
insufflation of common salt. The salt was

standing, which had been treated frequently
by morphine injections.?[New York

IS YOUR LIFE INSURED?
HAVE you any assurance as to how long
you will be spared to provide a support
for your family? If you should be called
away by death to-morrow would you leave
those who now look to you for a support, in a
a condition to meet their necessary wants, or
would they bo thrown on the charity of a cold
world ?
i
%
1 Are you struggling to make botli ends meet,
and if you are, do you think you will be able to
1 lay up any considerable amount for the benefit
of your family in case death should overtake
you ?
I Don't you think it would be wise for you to
. take out a policy in tho Amoriean Legion of
Honor for the benefit of those who are depend!
ent upon you for a support? You cannot
i shovel darkness out of a room, but you can
i drive out tbo darkness by letting in the light.
So, that in that hour of extremest anguish,
when the hand of death has been laid upon the
head of the family, you cannot alleviate the
suffering of the wife and of the children; but
you can avert the awful agony of despair as to
the future, when you come to that widowed
wife and that desolate hearthstone with the
contributions from the policy of life insurance,
which at least enables that widowed wife to
know that for the few years of the future, by
that contribution, she can keep under her own
watchful and motherly, eye the little children
God has given to her, until they grow up to
years when they can go out into the arena of
life and fight life's battles for themselves.
The shrewdest business men are stnong the
warmest advocates of pure life insurance, while
those who rail against it are generally persons
who are physically unable to obtain insurance,
or too selfish to pay for what they themselves
cannot enjoy ; or as they frequently express it,
"are adverse to play in a game where they
have to die to win."
The Legion of Honor is as solid as rock, and
furnishes insurance at actual cost. It meets its
obligations with promptness. Since its organization
in 1878 it has paid about $17,250,000
to the widows and orphans of deceased membets.
Think of the vast amount of good that
has been accomplished by this large sum of
money. Doubtless in thousands of cases actual
suffering has been provented.
* ?
A policy in the American Legion of Honor
is the cheapest and safest mode of making provision
for one's family.
***
Death comes to the cottage and the palace;
claiming all times and all seasons as his own ;
striking down the strong man and the weak,
and the wise tnan will make provision for the
coming of that certain but unwelcome visitor.
He will in>ure.
e\
You should have insurance and you can get
a first class article at a low rate by becoming
a member of the Legion of Honor. If you
desire to investigate its plan of doing business,
Mr. A. W. In gold, the secretary of the Yorkville
Council, will be pleased to furnish you
with any desired information.

unaccountable reason they had overlooked in
their search.
"How long has that waste paper basket been

a took at Madge. "Ah, and ho got the letter
four weeks ago. Depend upon it, wo shall

Madge gave a cry, and, falling on her
knees, emptied the basket out on the floor,
and both she and Calton were soon as busy
among the fragments of paper as though
they were ragpickers. * * * Suddenly a
cry broke from Madge, as she drew out of

he saw Whyte's coat, all weather-stained,
lying un a chair near him, and which he immediately
recognized.
"That is the rope that's going to hang you,"
said Kilsip, quietly, coming behind him,
"for the murder of Oliver Whyte."
"Trapped, by Q !" shouted the wretched
man, wheeling round, so as to face Kilsip.
He sprang at the detective's throat, and they
both rolled together on the floor, but the
latter was too strong for him, and, after a
sharp struggle, he succeeded in getting the >
handcuffs on Moreland's wrists. The others
stood around perfectly quiet, knowing that '
Kilsip required no assistance. Now that '
there was no possibility of escape, More land
seemed to become resigned, and rose sullenly
off the floor. /

'A crime has been committed by an unnown

THE CORE
Is The Best Farming Im
NO OTHER IMPLEMENT WILL DO Al
Right Noiv Is tlic
THERE is 110 doubt of the fact that no farm- I
inn implement has ever been ollered to the f
farming world that haH given such universal v
satisfaction as the t'ORBIN DISK HARROW, j ,
It is used in every State and Territory and is
heartily and enthusiastically endorsed by every v
farmer who has ever used it, and they are num- | ,]
bered by thousands. Practical farmers every- i :
where agree that it is, WITHOUT EXCEP- :
i TION, the most profitable implement for oulti- i
vating the soil and putting in grain yet in- j I
; vented. It increases the crops, saves time, and a
, saves labor. j ~
| The Harrow is made 01 nrsi-ciass material
, throughout, and with proper care will do good f
work for fifteen or twentv years, and will pay j i
for itself a dozen times over. The wheels or . i
disks are made of the very best of steel, and |
will neither break, bend or crumble. The j
disks are not alFeeted to any appreciable extent .
by rocks and the Harrow will do good work I .
011 all kinds of land. <
The following are some of tho points of superiority
possessed by the Corbin Harrow :
1. It is theouly Disk Harrow that is perfect- \
ly flexible (i. c. one that will adapt itself to nu- c
even surfaces). F
2. It is the only Harrow in which the gangs i
are independent of each other?either can tit or i follow
an inequality without disturbing the j
other. i j
3. It is the only Harrow having chilled t
boxes and anti-friction balls. .
4. It is the only Harrrow that has a success- (
fill Seeder Attachment. t
5. It is theonly combined Harrow and Seed- j
er that covers every kernel of grain in rows
like a drill.
C. The Corbin is unequaled for lightness of i
draft and power as a pulverizer. j
The Harrow With Seeder Attachment. ?
i
Every Corbin Harrow, whatever the size, is t
arranged so that a Seeder can be attached to it. The
Seed Box and its machinery are of the
most simple and compact character. All its .
metal parts are of malleable or refined wrought ]
iron. Its weight is (of the size to lit the No. 7 ,
12-disk Harrow) about eighty pounds. ?
The Seeder Attachment is removable at ]
pleasure. It locks itself firmly to tho Harrow <
frame by simply putting it into position. 1
Neither bar, bolt,* wedge, key, screw or pin, is
used to fasten it. Therefore, no hammer,
wrench or other tool is required to attach or j
detach it. Half a minute of time will remove
and one minute replace it.
The Harrow and Seeder combined cost about 1
half as much as a Drill, and is a better tool. '
It will sow grain as evenly as any drill, cover 1
it better, and place it at any depth in the
ground. It is two complete implements in
one. It prepares the fiela in the best possible ,
manner for seeding and then sows the crop. <
It sows RED RUST-PROOF OATS capitally.

I do not hesitate to pronounce it a most peroct
and indispensable farm implement and
yould recommend it to all my fellow-farmers.
-[Chas. Hardy, Gouverneur, N. Y.
I have never seen anything to equal the
vork of the Corbin Disk Harrow. It will unloubtedly
revolutionize our system of farm- ?
ng.?[Rev. W. S. Johnson, Calhoun, Ga.
The Disk Harrow is absolutely iudispensa>le
to a farmer who has once used it. Its value
s a farming implement cannot be estimated.
-[Geo. L. Kiddle, Zeno, York county, 8. C.
The Corbin Harrow has given perfect satisaction
and I can recommend it as being the best
nachine for pulverizing the soil that there is
nade.?[Simon Drown, Jr., Parsonfield, N. H.
The Corbin Disk Harrow fills a long felt ?
vant in the farming community. As a pulverzer
it is a complete success, and as for putting
n small grain ltdoes its work admirably.?f W.
r. Miller, Newport, York county, 8. 0.
I have used the Disk Harrow for years, and
vould not be without one for four times its
:ost. I think the Disk Harrow the most imjortant
implement used, and will do more '
vork for its cost than any implement made.
-[Wm. H. Herndon, Yorkville, 8. C.
The only objection I have to the Corbin Harrow
is that I have not owned one for the last
wenty-fivo years. If I had owned one (luring
he time mentioned, I would have saved lots
>f hard work and made better crops. Now
hat I have one I am delighted with it.?[E. N.
Davidson, Lominack, York county, S. C.
I havo a Corbin Disk Harrow which I have
ieen using for several years, and consider it
he most valuable farming implement of which
' havo any knowledge. As a time and money
aver, aside from the superior quality of work
t does, its value can hardly be estimated at
be season at which the small grain is sown.
-[R. E. Guthrie, Guthriesville, 8. C.
I consider myself incompent to do the implement
justice. I consider the Corbin Disk
Harrow is the most valuable farming implement
I have ever used, or ever expect to use.
rhere is no implement of which I have any
knowledge that will do so many different kinds
jf work or do the work as well.?[Dr. Wra. M,
Walker, Yorkville, 8. C.
The Corbin Harrow is a complete success, and
avery farmer should have one, and the longer
the matter of buying is put off, the greater the
loss to the farmer, as it can be used to great advantage
in winter, spring, summer and fall.
I consider myself incompetent to do the implement
justice from an economical standpoint.
?[Wm. S. Wilkerson, Hickory Grove, 8. C.
I find a wonderful difference in working land
that has been harrowed and that which has not.
The more I use my Harrow the better I like it.
It is my purpose to sow my small grain with
It next fall, and for two reasons; Brst, I can
sow it belter, and, therefore get better results;
and second, I can do it at about one-iifth the
expense and in one-fifth the time as compared
to the ordinary way of so wing grain. No farmer
can afford to be without the Corbin Harrow, and
the sooner the farmers find this out the better.
I would not take five times the cost of my
Harrow for it and be without it. I shall be
pleased to give my friends any further Information
they may desire.?[R. H. Glenn, Yorkville,
8. C.
The above testimonials, from practical farmers
should be sufficient to convince the most
skeptical that the Corbin Disk Harrow is a
complete success. No farming implement has
ever received such universal praise in this *
section.
The St. Lawrence M'fg Co., who are the
manufacturers of the Corbin Harrow, recommend
the No. 7 Harrow as being best adapted
to general farm work. It is made in two sizes,
viz.: 12 disks, 16 inches in diameter, and 6-foot
cut, and the other size has 10 16-inch disks and
5-foot cut. I keep a few No. 7 12-disk harrow^
on hand and can till orders promptly. I also
have SEEDER ATTACHMENTS on hand.
