"CABBAGING" FROM A QUAKER.
A friend says : I remember an amusiug
story my father used to tell. He was cutting,
some thirty or forty years ago, in
Philadelphia. One day during the dull season
an elderly Quaker came into the store
c-r\YY\c\ nlntli Ko UMQ^nfl fn VlflVf* Ollt,
W 1 til OVLUV VlVklt ITlliVi* MV 1T<WXV\? VV MM * v VM*
into a coat. My father told him he would
cut it for a dollar.
"Well," said the Quaker, "thee may cut
it; but as the tailors sometimes cabbage
cloth, as thee calls it, I shall stay and watch
thee while thee cuts it."
"All right," said my father; "but really
friend, your watching wouldn't keep me
from cabbaging, if I chose to do so."
"Thee is welcome to all thee can steal
without my catching thee," said the Quaker,
confident in his own shrewdness.
The cutting-board was close against a
window, between which and the board were
some eight inches of space. My father, in
laying off the coat, left a good vest pattern,
which he then chalked in various shapes,
and after he had cut all the pieces, he called
the Quaker's attention to something in the
room, and with his shears, pushed the "cabbage"
from the board between it and the
window, when it dropped quietly to the
floor. He rolled up the job, putting in all
the scraps, and handed it to the Quaker.
"I suppose you're satisfied that you have
all your cloth ?" asked my father.
"Yes, I'm satisfied. Thee's welcome to
an inee s stoien.
When the Quaker had gone, father took
the "cabbage" from under the table, and
cut a vest from it for himself. Not long
after he was standing in the door, with the
vest on, when he saw the Quaker on the
other side of the street. He called to him
and invited him into the store.
"How did your coat fit ?" asked ray father.
"Very well; thee is a good cutter."
"Thank you. How do you like my vest ?" I
asked my father, throwing open his coat
and showing the "cabbaged" garment.
"It's a nice vest. Where did thee get the
cloth ? It's like mine."
"It was yours; you gave it to me, you remember."
"No, I don't remember."
"You said I was welcome to all I had
cabbaged.'"
"Yes."
"Well, I 'cabbaged' this."
"Thee did ?"
"I certainly did."
The Quaker scratched his head a moment,
and then reached out his hand, which my
father took.
"Thee is a good cntter," he said, and he
added as he turned to go, "and thee is too
smart for me; but thee is welcome to the
vest."
Learning Things.?The drummer was
looking so sad that it attracted the attention
of the hotel clerk.
"What's the matter?" asked that functionary.
"Lost a friend, or your job ?"
"No, worseresponded the drummer.

"No; just thinking of a man I met out
here in Adrian last night at supper."
"What did he do to you? Beat you at
poker?"
"No; asked me a question and I answered
it by asking him another."
"Give me the particulars."
"Well, it was this way," and the drummer
showed by his looks how bad he felt to
bring it all up again. "Wo were at supper
and I had been pretty smart and the man
had been very quiet."
" 'Did you ever notice,' he said, as innocent
and kindly'as a school teacher, 'that
oyer in Wisconsin the people shake the pepper-box
this way, while those in Indiana
? hold it fast and pat it on the bottom this
way ?'
"I had noticed it and told him so."
" 'I'm from Indiana,' he said, knocking
some pepper on his potatoes."
"Yes," said I, "it shows on you."
" 'Do you know,' said he seriously, 'why
they do it differently ?'
"No," said I, "why do they ?"
" 'To get the pepper out,' said he earnestly,
and then the gang at the table gave me
the laugh in eighteen places, and the man
asked me how much salary I got for learning
things.?Detroit Free Press.
Truly a Serious Case.?Once I was
assistant to an elderly doctor in Ontario,
who also ran a drug store. He was as peppery
as a cayenne pod, and from time to
time customers and patients had sprung
jokes on him, just for the fun of hearing him
blow off.
On one occasion a well-dressed young
fellow called at the shop aud asked the
doctor to prescribe for a breaking out and a
rash on his left arm. The doctor examined
the limb, and pronounced it to be a bad
case of psoriasis and eczema.
"I suppose,doctor, you can cure it?" said
the patient.
"Why, certainly," replied the doctor.
"How long will it take to get well ?"
"Oh. I jruess about two months." says the
doctor.
"Quite sure, sir?is it a bad case?"
"Positively the worst I've seen."
"Then I will leave it with you, and call
for it again when cured," solemnly said the
patient, slowly unfastening his arm, which
was an artificial one, and painted for the
occasion.
Swelling Words.?William Wirt, when
a young man, wrote a farce, in which the!
most eminent lawyers of Virginia are in-;
troduced, and their peculiarities humorously |
exaggerated. Among them was one who |
had been Minister to England, and was re-1
markable for using swelling words.
He is represented as conducting a cause
in the county court, and in asking the clerk
to call some one iuto court, thus addresses!
him :
"Mr. Jones, have the benignity to vocifer- j
ate Peter Jolley into court."
The clerk bawled out, "Vociferate P.
Jolley ! Come into court!"
While examining a loquacious female
witness, the lawyer loses his patience and
exclaims:
"This woman ought to be deposited into
taciturnity !"
"You may go to Tass Eternity yourself,!
but I reckon you'll have none of my com-1
pany, sir!" retorted the angry woman.
Wished They Were All Blind.?Ilob-j
ert Burns's friend, Dr. Blacklock, the blind
poet, was a licentiate of the Church of
Scotland and used to preach occasionally.
One Sunday he was supplying a country J
pulpit. Certain deaf old women, as was the ;
custom in those days, had squatted on the'
pulpit stairs to be as near the preacher as 1
possible. Like the mass of the Scottish people,
they abominated sermons that were
read.
One of them, as soon as the discourse was I
begun, said to her neighbor in a tone that
was audible through the whole church, "Is
he readiu'?"
"Tuts, woman ! No, he cannn read?he's
blind."
"Blind, is he, eh? That's raal fort'natc.
I wish they were a' blind!"
A good story is told upon a Washing-:
ton woman who now makes her home in
Colorado, says Kate Field's Washington.
With evidently no thought as to the curious !
sound of the combination if spoken quickly, j
she has called her oldest child Helen Virginia.;
Xotlong ago, upon a visit to this city, skei
proudly brought her young daughter in to
see an old friend. "What have you called |
your daughter?" queried the visitor. "Helen
Virginia," was the complacent reply. "Ah, j
and what do you call her in Colorado?" \
was the unexpected but very natural response.

f WINTER HINTS.
As competition forces farmers to conduct
> their work on a more business like basis, they
are led to consider carefully the wastes and
i leaks of farm operations. As there is not
much competition in the South, probably
I this is why everything upon the farm is done
in such a careless and shiftless manner. The
1 great question with farmers now, is how to
C?'"> Oni-i/le mill limv fn pnmllillP 111 pTil sn
* V/ ovv/vrv m/ii v v vv?i ?... v ^
lis to get the most good, both as regards nutrition
and manure.
The farm stock should be classified and
, fed according to their requirements. There
are calves, work oxen and horses, milch cows,
beef cattle, and, maybe, other animals that
are not growing, giving milk, or being fati
tened only, consume food to keep up the
wastes of the body, and in winter the grcati
est of these wastes is keeping the body warm ;
and here the question aries, is your feed
cheaper for this purpose than a good com'
fortable barn? We think not.
The temperature of a healthy animal is
100 degrees, and, of course the colder it is, the
more food it takes to keep the body at its
uormal temperature. If the temperature of
your barn is only 20 degrees and that of your
) neighbor is (!0 degrees, it certainly must take
more food to keep the temperature of your
cows at 08 degrees, than it does to keep your
neighbor's cows at the same temperature.
Just the same as it takes more heat to keep a
loosely boarded house warm, than it does a
a tight; comfortable one. In the poorly built
house you will have to use more wood. In
the barn more feed, (lood stables save feed.
Feed costs money. No matter if one raises
his own feed, it takes some time, toil, fertility
and wear of tools. Perhaps some readers
of Thk Enquirer live in a community where
it is fashionable to winter stock behind a
straw stack. If they do they should set a
better fashion. A straw stack can be made
into a very comfortable shelter with the aid
of posts and poles, but it could not be made
very convenient for feeding. I5ut if nothing
else is at hand, do the best you can with the
straw. It is not to he expected that the
man whose stable lets 111 the ngm inrougn
the cracks, and whose cattle never taste
grain, will concern himself about warming
water for his stock ; but this is evidently
what every progressive farmer is coming to.
Think of a cow standing in a dark, cold
stable where the manure is frozen solid and
plastered upon the cow's sides, and then
think of her turned out in the cold to drink
ice, water and wander around the pasture,
shivering all day. Winter dairying can never
pay with farmers who treat their stock in
this way ; nor does it pay to use any kind of
stock in this way. Yet hundreds of farmers
do as bad, if not worse. It costs about twothirds
as much to keep a cow in a good
barn as it does to keep one in an open lot.
Cows should never be turned out in winter,
except on warm days, unless one has a covered
yard for them to exercise in.
In good stables cows do better, young
stock grows far faster, fattening animals
take 011 flesh faster, and work cattle can do
more work if properly cared for. Many
farmers never think of this; they are too
busy. They go in the same old ruts, never
using their minds or learning anything new. j
It is this class that the agricultural papers
would benefit more than any others, and
yet how many of them ever see a paper?
REQUIREMENTS (IF PLANTS.
To secure the growth of farm crops cer-)
tain conditions arc necessary; a soil for the I
roots to penetrate and from which a large
proportion of nourishment is to be obtained ;!
moisture in sufficient abundance to assist j
in the preparation and molding of the plant)
food for use, and heat to give vigor to the
natural processes in operation.
A soil may be fairly fertile and yet be so
imperfectly porous as to greatly impede the
root development; it may be so caked and
hard as to retard plant growth ; or so unpenetrable
as to hold stagnant water, which is
destructive to plants.
It may also be deficient in lime and humus;
thus it is seen that there arc both chemical
and physical conditions which may prevent
a healthy development and diminish the
product of a crop.
In general, if it is so'that upon a soil j
that appears to possess a good degree of for-1
j tility, a crop makes a stinted and unnatural j
I growth, it is not a certain evidence of a want J
j of fertility, but rather indicates some me-j
| chanical or chemical condition that requires
| changing before success in a crop culture can
j be hoped for.
In such cases better conditions must be
established, by means of irrigation, drainage,
deep culture, better plowing, applying mulch
j or marls as may seem to he required. These
plants will be likely to allow all the dcvcl!
opment required.
It must be remembered that the more |
(favorable the conditions of soil iu its median- 1
| ieal and chemical nature, the greater will
; be the demand of the plant for the three
I principal elements of plant food, phosphoric
I acid, potash and nitrogen, and by a liberalj'
! application of these elements, the crop may
he said to he followed the same as an annu-!
j al when in good condition can be followed j
; by providing wholesome, digestible food,
j To the end of supplying the crops that the
! farmers desire to produce, there is one clear j
' principle that must be observed, which is very j1
i simple, and that is to enrich the soil with the
j food constituents, phosphoric acid, potash j
and nitrogen, until they are present iu suflij
eient surplus, that is, till a further enrichment
: will produce no effect; and to hold the soil in
| this degree of surplus food. Then, with such
cultivation as should be given, a proper con- j
j dition of moisture, etc., there can hardly be I
a crop failure.
Diffkkk.vck in l'tcs.?If all men are
; equal, all pigs are certainly not. The farmi
er who goes into the pork business with that '
notion will soon find himself a poorer and a
| wiser man. There's money in the raising of
i hogs if the work he done intelligently. They
; can be made ready for market in a short
1 time, so that quick returns can be had?that
I is, if the breed is a good one and the animals |
are given proper care.
The last is the great stumbling block.
The majority of farmers seem to imagine that j
hogs cannot exist without dirt. It is almost I
j impossible to convince them to the contrary.
I Mouldy corn will not answer as well as sound
corn, and a weed pasture will not keep them
in as good condition as a clover field. Pigs
will eat and flourish on a great deal that
i would otherwise go to waste, but even they
.draw the line somewhere.?X. V. World.
.
Hakuoiunc Ykk.min.?Pats, minks, mice
and other vermin will readily accept all in|
citations to abide with you. They must
have secure retreats, and ifyou provide them,!
they will he occupied Pemedics are useless
1 unless they can be applied. Wherever there
j exists a pile of lumber or logs, or debris of
any kind, the rat will be sure to put in an

which he will make nocturnal raids on the
I chicks. He can go where the cat and terrier j
cannot reach him, and the host way to get!

j places as possible.

policy of a farmer. Special tanners cannot I
do this, for they rely on one crop which
comes in at one season of the year, and as a j
consequence they must wait until it is ready.1

A MODERN MAGDELEN.
A LOVK THAT l>i:STKOVi:i) WHAT IT I
COLLI) NOT ATTAIN.
Sonic one rapped at my door in the early
gloaming, and when I opened, Dr. Augustc
! stood before me, his expression wavering between
confidence and deprecation.
"I?I want?I have come," he said, "to
make an appeal to you. Lil is dying down
at Sangster's, aud it seems pretty hard that
clw. tlimiM luivn no woman with her. Would ! i
?would you mind going down there with
me? I know you dare if you only will! i
Astute Dr. Augustc! lie had shown how
to strike the right chord. He might else !
have put his ease on grounds humanitarian, I
or womanly, or Christian,and so might have 1
put it in vain. For I am only a woman, {
with all a woman's innate hardness toward '
the erring of her sex, and calloused, more- 1
over, to suffering and sorrow by personal ex- '
pcrienecs. Hut on a point of pluck, no one
appeals to me twice. It struck me that here 1
was a rare good chance to affront and defy '
the arrogant prejudice and narrow minded- '
ness of the little French watering place. 1
The gudewives' flesh would crawl with hor- '
ror when they should know of my visit to
the dying Magdelen. '
I wrapped a furred cloak about me, and '
took up a laquered box, wherein I carry a '
li.tie store of drugs and simples that often 1
find opportunity in my vagrant artist life.
Then Dr. Auguste led the way down the 1
gulch to Songster's big rough barn of a place, <
part restaurant, part lodging-house. *
"It's uncommonly nice of you to do this
thing. T like brave women well," said the lit- '
tie doctor. 1
"Oh, nonsense! It's shop with me, you
know. I've been waiting to paint a Camiile, (
and here's my model in unconscious repose."
Now, this he knew, was the sheerest aHec- '
tation of hardness, but it silenced him, even '
the simulacrum of such brutality, as well it '
might do. No more said he until lie pushed '
open the door of the room where poor Lil (
was fighting her last hard battle with the 5
lorces 01 a piuiess woriu.
"I have brought a woman to you, Lilly," '
he said ; "and a true woman you will lind 1
her. She can do you more good now than I
can. She will listen to the message that has
been troubling you. I'll look in from time
to time to see if I am needed."
He plucked my sleeve; I followed liirn
out to the passage.
"No one will dream of molesting you," he
said ; "you arc as safe in this room now as in
a sanctuary. Yet I will remain within call?
only just far enough away to lose the confidence
she wishes to make you." And with
that lie was gone.
I drew near the dying girl; she must
have been five years younger than I?and I
was thirty.
With her great brilliant eyes turned full
upon me, as if to burn her words into my
memory, she told her story. Not continuously
she spoke, as I set it down here, but
brokenly in the intervals when her fragile
body was least shaken and torn by the
throes of her malady ; but the words that I
write are as nearly as possible the words
then spoken by Lillian.
"Five years ago," she said, "I lived in
Grysaept, a little Belgium town, dependent
on mining interests, and with a population
largely ignorant and vulgar, and nearly all
grossly immoral.
"I did not realize or understand the full
sense of the conditions about me, for before
this all my surroundings had been pure and
refined, and I was inexperienced, innocent
and ignorant of the world's ways?astoundingly
ignorant, incredibly innocent. I can
hardly believe myself that I could have been
so innocent, looking back as I do from my
present dreadful depths of knowledge, across
the gulf of these years, with their frightful
revelations.

must have been linked with mine from the
beginning?on the night after I first met him.
I dreamed that lie led a hand of people to
niv brother's house, to fix upon me some
dreadful unknown crime, and to drag mo
away to death in penalty. That dream
alone should have made me shun him?such
warnings arc not sent to us without purpose.
"He was a most anomalous being. At ]
times lie appeared a hoy, a lad, a more child, y
so boyish was his build, so young and tender ^
his countenance ; again, his features wotdd ,
harden, and his face take on the look of an
old, old man, sin disfigured. In character, '
too, he was like that; some of his traits 51
were almost sublimely good and noble, while <
in others he seemed to sound the depths of l
baseness. Naturally enough it was long be- 'I
fore I perceived his ignoble side, for, such as t.
he was, I loved him ! I
"My heart and my soul went out to him ,
irresistibly. I forgot my self respect, the j
dignity of womanhood, everthing that a woman
ought to remember!
"I think," she went on shortly, "that no
one ever suspected what were our relations.
The very openness and heedless display of <
what seemed our mutual infatuation misled i
those who might have thought amiss. Jack |
planned all our secret meetings with a tact >,
and an impunity that betokened long prac- .
tice in intrigue?at that time I did not think
of this?then I was full of admiration and !
satisfaction for the cleverness that secured j1
our meetings free from discovery. '
"All at once, without waste of words, ah- j 'I
ruptly, brutally, he told me that all must I
cease between us ; his affianced was returning [ /
to (irysaept, and they would marry at once. | j
I had been too drunk with the pleasure of L
the present to dwell much on the future, but
in an indefinite sort of way I had always felt,
rather than thought, that marriage would he 1
the outcome of our association, llut Jack's '
decisiveness effectually undeceived me of ^
further hope in that direction. The only '
loyally of which he was capable was toward ;
Miss Stuart. I
"And now this woman was coining back y
here, and was about to marry Jack Lake?
my Jack! j
"I cannot explain?I cannot understand? r
the change that came over me at the news, j
Before this, in spite of my sinning for love j ^
of Jack, I had kept the tenderness, the deli-1 1
eacy, the horror of evil of a true woman. I '1
"Do you know?" said this poor Lilly, ;
struggling to sit upright among her pillows, j i
and looking at me with wistful, yearningL
eyes, "I think that a woman giving way L
through her first young love is not debased j ^
by it, because, until the undeceiving comes,
she does not realize that she is doing evil. It j 1
is only when the man casts her oil'that she !
sees herself as lie sees her. a thing degraded \
and dishonored. ; <
"From that time on, every bad, wicked, fe- j
rocious instinct awoke and raged in my soul,!
revenge of all most potent. 1 went on j:
through my part of the anomalous gailiesof: I
the place, to all seeming as joyous as ever :!!,
people thought it was Jack who was suffer-' j
ing from our evident rupture. And s\U the ! i
time, night and day, I was planning, plan-11
ning, planning. j.
"Jack had an odd pocket-fla.sk, given him t
hy a rowing-club, of which he had been ! I
captain at Ins old home?a great shell of *'
beaten silver. I ordered its duplicate from I
Kastern jewelers. My own schoolgirl chum j j
'at home' was the daughter of a druggist?a n
spoiled child, who had easy access to her }
father's stock. I wrote to her that I had dis- 1
covered a new process of etching, for which I t
must have hydrocyanic acid of a purer grade a
than was obtainable in (Jrysacpt. She sent iv
it to me without a suspicion. ! (
"Then?I brought-Jack to me. I need j
not tell you how. A woman may always
have her will, if she hut stoop to play upon j
a man's baser passions. It is the women that
hold themselves apart, pure and proud, who
excite in men resistance, opposition, persecution.
Jack was smarting under the twits of
his associates over my indiU'erence : he could
not resist the chance to prove to himsclfand j
to me that his power over inc still existed ? |
and he condescended to grant me one more j ?
meeting. As much of true love and reverence
as was in liiin he had given to Miss fc
Stuart ?and yet he could come to my arms i
on the very eve of her arrival. i *
"I steered our course for the valley, where
there was a wind-break and some benches, j
and where as i had eaenlated, our footprints
would not show on the trodden ground j \
as they world in the dusty roadway else- \
where. ; '
"Onrtalk was very stormy. Jack was res 1
olnle. in his allegiance to Miss Stuart. At r
that time it was incomprehensible to me that
such a woman should attract, or he attract- d
ed by, a man like. Jack. Kelleetion has
shown me that her loftiness of sold was just ij
the stimulus needful to what good was in
him, and his uplifting may have seemed t(
her generous heart her one great mission.
"At any rate, as I had expected, he clur.;
to her. 1 had been only a toy, a makeshift
"With taunts and sneers I deliberately
provoked him into rage to make my opporai
nit v. As I had foreseen, out came the flash
at short intervals. Then I claimed that agi
tation had made me feel faint, and askeci
for a sip of brandy. Instead of returning
his llask, I exchanged it in the darkness foi
my own, part full of brandy, with twe
ounces of the acid poison.
"When Jack lay dead, I did not even kiss
him. I went stealthily home, and a weeklater,
not from remorse, not from need, God
knows not from inclination, but, like many
li disillusioned woman before me, from sheer
lierce pessimism and desolation, I plunged
into the life that has brought me to?this !
"Three hours after they found Jack,
stretched dead on the rough bench, with his
poisoned flask by his side, Miss Stuart arrived
in (irysaept?arrived to find her lover
lead, and, instead of sympathy and compassion
for her 'sorrow, an onset of slurs and
icofling that might be expected from savages,
l>ut not from decent humanity.
"This is why 1 have told you the story ;
purge it of its poison for her. Tell her, not
:hat Jack was faithless, but that I was furi)us
at his preference for her?and that he
lid not take his own life?that I murdered
tiim. Write it to her?Diana Stunrt, in care of
The Continental Magazine.' That will be a
10111 fort. Oil, I could almost die in peace if
[ could ask her forgiveness! My wrong lo
tier lies heavier 011 my soul than the rest of
liy sins together!"
She sank back gasping. Her breath was
rattling?it went no lower than the hollow
>f her throat. She could not swallow the
stimulant. Her eyes held mine pitcously.
"Oh, God!" I cried in my heart, "let her
live long enough to hear and understand
me."
I would not take the instant of time to
ry out for the doctor.
"You" can die in peace," I said, "sure of
licr full forgiveness. She sorrowed for the
over she believed in?she scorns and abhors
he memory of the traitor! He deserved his
rate?it is only you I pity?yes, yes," for the
piestion in her eyes was the very cry of a
;oul in torture?"believe me! Sec! I kiss
you again?again?like a poor loved sis:cr!
I am Diana Stuart."

upon the KOKTIKT1I vearof its pulilieation
on the Til I It I) DAY OF JANUARY, 1?M.
In making our annual annouueciiient we avail
ourselves of the opportunity to return thanks
to our friends and patrons for the generous support
that h:us been extended to TIIK KNQl'IKKR
for the past year, and to say that during
lsni.wo do not intend to take any steps backward:
but will endeavor to make the paper more i
and inoro entitled to the support of the people of
York county.
THE ENQUIRER having intelligent, trustworthy
and wide awake special correspondents
in York and adjoining counties, hut little transpires
in which the people generally are interested,
that is not promptly made known through
its columns. Besides this, it shall continue to
be our aim to watch carefully after everything
that is calculated to make known to the outside
world the business advantages and natural resources
possessed by York county?agricultural,
mineml'and climatic?and when we say York
county, we do not mean any particular section
of it, or anv particular class of people; but THE
W1IOLKCOlTXTYANDAbbTHE PEOPLE.
While the local and general news departments
of the paper will be carefully looked after, all
the features which have given THE ENQUIRER
a distinctive original character from the
first day of its publication will be maintained.
From time to time it will contain short stories
and serial stories from the best writers; every
week a column of fun and humor; carefully selected
and seasonable articles intended for the
benefit of the farmer and housewife.
To recapitulate: It is our aim to print a hightoned,
clean, newsy family paper: one that is
RELIABLE, and one whose weekly visits will
always be looked forward to with pleasure by
its patrons.
