Turning the Tables.?An Illinois sheriff
was noted for his activity in looking up
unlicensed peddlers. Taking his walk abroad
one day, he came across an old fellow whom
he at once concluded was an illegal trader,
and inquired if he had got anything to sell.
"Hev I got anything to sell, squire?" was
the response. "Guess I hev got blackin'
that'll make them old cowhide boots of yours
shine so't you can shave in 'em. Got razors
tew, an article you want, I should say, by
the look of your beard. Got Balm of Klumby,
tew, only a dollar a bottle, good for the
hair, and assisting poor human natur'."
The sheriff bought a bottle of Balm of
Columbia, and then desired to see the Yankee's
license for peddling.
The document was produced, examined,
pronounced genuine and handed back to its
owner.

stuff," said the disappointed official; "what
will you give for it."
"Waal," answered the peddler, "I don't
want it, squire; but, seein' it's you, I'll give
you thirty-seven cents for it."
The sheriff passed him the bottle and
pocketed the money, when the peddler
said:
"I say; guess I hev suthing to ask you
now. Hev you got a peddler's license about
you ?"
"No," said the sheriff, "I haven't any use
for one myself,"
"Wall, I guess we'll see about that pretty
soon," replied the Yankee. "If I understand
the law, sheriff, it's a clair case that you've
been trading and peddling Balm of Klumby
on the highway, and I shall inform of you."
Thus he turned the tables; and the sheriff
was duly fined for peddling without a license.?Spare
Moments.
A Countryman's Rebuke.?The countryman's
contempt for city knowledge is
often very amusing. The other day, during
the warm spell, a young Boston entomologist
journeyed to a suburban city to meet an
enthusiastic co-worker in the science. Together
the two wandered into the fields in
search of something to dissect; and, though
it was early for a thoroughly animated nature,
they had a lively talk, and did happen
upon a premature specimen of the animals
with wings. The insect was promptly captured,
and the two lads took it to the nearest
fence for examination. Here neither
of them could recall the order to which it
belonged, and the Latin nanie was variously
given by both.
In the midst of the controversy two countrymen
came up, attracted by what was
going on, and wondering, as they expressed
it, "what the lads were jawing about."
But their perplexity did not last long. The
youthful entomologists informed them, pointing
to the insect that they were "trying to
think of the name for that." "That?" said
the elder of the countrymen, with an expression
of utter scorn on his face, "why,
that's a bug. Never see a bug before ?"
W&" A popular young fellow who is widely
known in athletic circles tells this story:
"I was in the office of a friend of mine
the other morning, when a rather seedy
looking young chap came in and nodding to
him in a jaunty way, said :
" 'Billy, old man, I want to borrow a
dollar."
" 'H-m-m-m,' replied Billy, slowly; 'well
if I remember rightly I loaned you a dollar
last week.'
" 'So you did,' said the visitor, 'but I'm
dead strapped and must have a dollar now.'
"Billy pondered a moment and replied:
'Well, you're no good; I'm convinced of
that, and so I'll not lend you a dollar, but
I'll give you one; how'll that do ?"
"'First rate,' responded the shameless
striker, and then after a moment or so as
the cash was not forthcoming he added:
'Well where's the dollar you are going to
give me?'
" 'Oh,' replied Billy, smilingly, "I'll give
you the dollar you borrowed last week.'"
The Daughter of a Debtor.?"Well,
did you have any luck ?" said the merchant
to the young clerk whom he had sent out collecting.
"Snmp "
"I suppose you got the amount Mr. Fatherington
owes. You said he was a personal
friend of yours."
"No, I did'nt get the money; the fact is,
I don't know exactly what to make of my
experience there."
"How is that?"
"I went in and said to him,?
"''Mr. Fatherington, I called to speak
about a matter?7
"I didn't get any further when he said,?
" 'That's all right my boy ; she is yours;
take her and be happy."
VST A popular and witty minister, on as- (
cending the steps of the church one Sunday
afternoon, saw an old woman struggling
against rheumatics to reach the top of the
steps, and at once taking her by the arm he
gently assisted her up. On reaching the
top, she asked him who was to preach.
"Oh, Rev. B.," he replied, giving his own
name. "Oh, gracious!" exclaimed the old
woman, "help me down again. I would
rather listen to a man sharpening a saw.
Please help me down ggain. I do not care
to go in." The minister was at first inclined
to refuse, but the humor of the situation
tickled him, and he remarked as he
reached the bottom of the steps, "You are
quite right, my good woman ; I would not
go in myself if I was not paid for it."
B3T In a ferry-boat in the West of Scotland a
well-dressed commercial traveler insisted on
sitting in the bows, though warned by one of
the boatmen of the danger there existed of
the rope by which the boat was hauled over
jerking him overboard. This accident happened
as predicted, but the boatman caught
him by the collar of the coat in going over,
which, being shoddy, gave way. A second
time the man clutched him, this time by the
shirt-collar, but alas, it was paper, and gave
way also. The disgusted boatman made a
third clutch, this time at his hair, only to
bring away an ample wig. This was too
much even for the phlegmatic Sandy, who
called to his fellow boatman : "Here, Jock,
gie's a hand; this chiel's coming awa' in
bits!"
A Scotch laddie delivering milk was
stopped the other day on his rounds by two
police officers, who asked him if his employer
ever put anything in the milk. "Oh, ay,"
was the innocent answer. The officers, thinking
they had a clear case of adulteration, offered
the boy sixpence if he would tell them
what wus put in it. "Ah," said the boy, with
a grin, "ye wadna gie's the saxpence though
I tell't ye." "Oh, yes, we will," said the officers.
"(He's it then," said the little fellow.
The sixpence was duly handed over with the
question, "Now what does your employer
put in the milk?" "Why," said the boy,
with a cunning look, "he puts the measure in
every time he tak's ony oot!"
t&T A certain Irish coachman was confessing
his sins to a priest. After he had got
through the priest asked if that was all.
"Yes, your riverence." "Have you never
been guilty of the sin of stealing the oats
from your master's horses, selling the forage,
and pocketing the money ?" "No, your
riverence; I never thought of such a thing."
The next time Pat went to confession the
first sin he confessed was stealing the oats
from his master's horses. "I'm distressed to
hear you say so," said the priest. "Yes,
but it was your riverence that first suggested
it to me."
B3F "We had more fun at the party the
other night than I ever saw in my life,"
said a little girl to her mother.
"What was the cause of your hilarity?"
inquired the interested parent.
"One of the girls fell right through a
chair, and everybody laughed but me."
"Why didn't you laugh?"
"I?I?I was the little girl who fell
through the chair."
Parson Weems, an eccentric old minister
in Virginia, was dining with one of his
parishioners. When the soup was handed
him he was too polite to remind the hostess
that he had no spoon, and commenced eatit
with his fork. "Oh, Mr. Weems," she
said, observing him, "here is a spoon; you
are eatiug your soup with a fork." "Yes,
madam," he replied, "but I am gaining on it."

Appeal to Girls.?Do be tidy: tidiness !
is necessary to ladyhood.
Do be natural; a poor diamond is better
than a good imitation.
Do be accurate; a thing badly done or
imperfectly understood is often much better
left undone.
Do observe; the faculty of observation,
well cultivated, makes practical men and
women.
Do be sensible; it is no sign of superiority
to talk like a fool.
Do be ready in time for church ; it is rudeness
to every worshipper, as well as disrespect
to God, to be late.
Do avoid causes of irritation in your family
circle; reflect that home is the place in
which to be agreeable.
Do be reticent; the world at large has no
interest in your private affairs.
Do cultivate the habit of listening to
others.
Do be contented ; "martyrs'' are detestable
; a cheerful happy spirit is like a sunny atmosphere.
Do be truthful; avoid exaggeration ; if you
mean a mile say a mile, not a mile and a half;
if you mean one, say one, and not a dozen.
Do sometimes, at least, allow your mother
to know better than you do; she was educated
before you were born.
Do Married Folks Look Alike??
Whether vou remember it iust now or not,
at sometime, I doubt not, you have read long
articles or short items on the curious theory
advanced by some psychologists that married
couples finally come to resemble each other.
Some argue that it is because they are exposed
to the same conditions in life; others go
further and say that the influences of minds
react upon each other, which, in case of man
and wife, brings about a facial resemblance
after years of close contact. The Photographic
Society of Geneva, Switzerland, with
a view to determining the truth or falsity of
this psychological oddity, made, during 1891,
photographs of seventy-eight couples. Those
were examined by experts in physiognomy,
who decided that in twenty-four of the seventy-eight
cases the facial resemblance of
husband and wife was greater than that of
brother and sister; in thirty cases it was
equally as great, and in only twenty-folir
cases was there a total absence of resemblance.
A Queer Barometer.?One of the most
curious of the many natural barometers consists
of a half-pint glass of water, a piece of
muslin, and a leech. The leech must be put
in the water, and the muslin ti?d over the
top of the glass so that the creature cannot
get out again. When fine weather is to be
the order of the day the leech will remain at
the bottom of the water coiled up in spiral
shape, and perfectly motionless. If rain is
to be expected it will creep to the top of the
glass, and remain there until there is a likelihood
of more settled weather. If there is to
be a storm of wind the little animal will
contort itself violentlv and souirm about.
For some days before thunder it will keep
out of the water almost all the time, and will
occasionally move its body in a conclusive
fashion. For frosty weather it behaves in
the same mauner as for fine, and it foretells
snow in the same manner as it does rain.?
Court Journal.
Refining Cottonseed Oil.?A French
chemist named Degroot has discovered an improved
process of refining cottonseed oil that
promises excellent results. It has heretofore
been found impossible to remove from the
oil certain gummy or resinous qualities which
restricts its use for various pui-poses. This
difficulty has been enconomiciaily overcome.
At a cost less than the expense of refining
by the present methods, M. Degroot turns out
an oil that is of remarkable purity, equal in
its lubricant quality to lard oil. The product
is so free from odor that the objection heretofore
made to its use for cooking purposes
is said to have been completely removed.
The value of this discovery receives confirmation
from the announcement in the New
Orleans Times Democrat of late date that a
company has been chartered to refine the oil
by the new process, and began active service
on May 1st.
Snakes to Eat the Rabbits.?Among the
many strange and astounding propositions for
the rabbit question in Australia, one of the
latest comes from a genius in South Australia.
to turn a lot of carpet snakes loose
among the rabbits, which would, it is asserted,
be eaten up by the reptiles. The correspondent
also furnishes some remarkable
data regarding the feeding capacity of carpet
snakes. When from 5 to 6 feet long they
are, he says, able to eat two or three at one
meal; but when 15 to 16 feet long they are
able to eat six rabbits. Anticipating inquiry
so as to what would happen if the snakes
become more numerous than the rabbits, he
proposes that carpet snakes of one kind only
should be used, and after eating all the rabbits
the snakes would then proceed to eat
each other.
IST" A Philadelphia scientist has made an
analysis of the brains of a gorilla, and the
results of his investigations are calculated to
give little comfort to those who have maintained
there is only a "missing link" between
man and the gorilla in the chain of evolution.
It was found that the brain of the gorilla
was really of a much lower order of deI
velopment than the ourangoutang or the
j chimpanzee. The gorilla's frontal lobe, inI
stead of being round and convex, was pointed
and concave, and the bwer portion of
the brain, visible in the chi apanzee as well
as man, is missing. The gorilla, instead of
standing at the head of the monkey tribe, is
lower than at least two other members of it.
Ten Pairs of Twins by One Wife.?The
census figures of the town of Tompkins,
Delaware county, Conn., disclose the remarkable
case of Abram Ostrom, who is the
father of twenty-seven children, of whom
j twenty are by one wife. Mr. Ostrom's first
wife, to whom he was married in 1855, bore
him four children. At her death he married
again and his second wife presented him
three children. After her death, and in 1878,
i he took for a third wife a young woman of 18
years, who has already born him twenty
children?ten pairs of twins, of whom eleven
are living. Inasmuch as Mr. Ostrom is only
64 and his prolific spouse is not yet 35, the
possibilities of the case are bewildering.?N.

THE SECOND CROP OF IRISH POTATOES.
When grown successfully, the second crop
of Irish potatoes, that is, planted in midsummer
and harvested in the fall, is more
to be valued by the average growers than the
spring or early summer crops. Those who
grow the early crop, for shipment to Northern
markets, can make more money of
course from the first crop than they can
make on the second, if their shipments are
made early and properly. There are every
year a great many, however, who lose money
on their shipments and merely come out
a little ahead on the transaction. Of course
every venture in the world that promises
unusual profits is usually attended with
more or less risk of outright failure.
There are a great many non-producers
who buy and use a much larger quantity of
potatoes in the fall and winter than they
do in the summer. There are so many
other vegetables that enter into competition
with potatoes in the summer time, the use
of them is not near so great as it is in the
winter, when other vegetables arc not to be
hud.
So in the home gardens we have always
thought that a little more attention should
bo given the second crop than is given the
first one. For every row that is planted in
the spring at least two rows should be accorded
the second.
We were a long time in linamg oui me
best method to be pursued with this late
crop, and we experienced altogether a considerable
loss iu time and money in endeavoring
to get at the best method of culture
with this crop.
More or less (generally less) success followed
the observance of other methods, but
the plan that is now given is the only one
that will be regarded as a good one?until
some better one is discovered, evolving perhaps
the discovery of a potato that will
grow right on through the season like sweet
potatoes.
Lay aside all the small potatoes from the
size of an unhulled walnut down to that of
a small hickory nut, as the crop is dug in
June or early in July. Accumulate as
many seeds as it is desired to plant, and expose
them to the sun until they assume a
greenish cast. Then take and clip off the
seed ends of each small potato, throwing
this clipping away.
Near a well, or other convenient source of
water, scoop out a place iu the soil eight or
ten inches deep and line the same with straw
or leaves. Spread out the potatoes in this
hollow, three or four inches deep; cover
them with a little straw and then throw on
several -inches of soil. Wet the seed before
covering with soil from time to time, every
days few days. If rain does not fall on the
bed, apply enough water to keep the potatoes
steadily moist. After ten days have expired,
begin to watch for their sprouting and
as soon as this is indicated have the soil made
ready to receive the seed. Have the land
well plowed and the furrows laid oft' in good
time. If a rain occurs to wet this open furrow
just as the seed jKrtatoes have sprouted,
(sprouts just started grow so they will not
break off in handling) it will be a decided
gain in starting the crop to drop the potax
nu OAAII oftnt* tVir* rnin

can be done and not too wet to plow. Drop
the seed every fifteen inches and press them
firmly into the mellow soil with the foot.
Then with a turn shovel run a furrow each
side of the seed furrow, and far enough otF
to make a square bed over the seed. By this
operation moisture will be conserved to the
use of the already sprouting potato to bring
it up in ten days or two weeks if another
rain should occur in a week after planting.
On naturally moist soil, rain may be deferred
some weeks without interfering with
germination. When the potatoes are up
keep the soil stirred shallow. If the necessary
plant food is in the soil the second crop
frequently is muoh larger than the first one.
A trial of this plan will show that a second
crop is more easily grown than you now
think.?Southern Farm.

A SiMi'lk Way to Avoid Dust.?Here
is a hint in regard to the prevention of dust
that is well worth the attention of housekeepers.
Dutch artists of old, who had a

to a canal. If this was not practicable
they got over the diiliculty by keeping a
large tub of water in their studios, most ol
the dust Hying about the room being caught
in this receptacle. The neighborhood of a
river, the substitute for the Dutch canal,
may not always be desirable at the present

Ayer's Pills j
Are better known and more generally
used than any other cathartic,
j Sugar-coated, purely vegetable, and
J free from mercury or any other injurious
drug, this is the ideal family
medicine. Though prompt and energetic
in their action, the use of these
pills is attended with only the best
results. Their effect is to strengthen
and regulate the organic functions,
being especially beneficial in the
various derangements of the stomI
ach, liver, and bowels.
Ayer's Pills
are recommended by all the leading
physicians and druggists, as the
most prompt and effective remedy
for biliousness, nausea, costiveness,
indigestion,* sluggishness of the
liver, jaundice, drowsiness, pain in
the side,- and sick headache; also,
to relieve colds, fevers, neuralgia,
and rheumatism. They are taken
with great benefit in chills and the
diseases peculiar to the South. For
travelers, whether by land or sea,
Ayer's Pills
are the best, and should never be
omitted in the outfit. To preserve
their medicinal integrity in all climates,
they are put up in bottles as
well as boxes.
"I have used Ayer's Pills in my
family for several years, and always
found them to be a mild and excellent
purgative, having a good effect
on the liver. It is the best pill used."
