Iu contrast the rigors of the present press een ship in the Transvall with the methods pursued during the rebell the senator said: "One day before Yicksburg the respondent of a copperhead pr went to General Rawlins for uews. "The geuera! pondered a mon and took me to one side. " 'Take this young man,' he s 'up to the top of those trenches wit a stoue's throw of the enemy. T bim up there and lose him. I d care what happens. Understand ? "I said I did aud we started thro the lines. Both of us were moun I pointed out a crest overlooking enemy and told him he could g good view from that poiut. "'Ain't you coming with me?1 asked. " 'No,' I replied, 'I know all I w to know.' "So he started aloue. As soor the top of his hat and the tips of mule's ears showed above the ci there came a volley of musketry yards wide, that cut the air a big knife blade. The crowu his hat was sliced off as with shei he managed to drop to the grotto safety, but the persevering mule literally tilled with lead. After tiring ceased, the correspondent crt ed to the spot where I was. "4I)id you learu what you wantei know?'I asked. "'Eh?' gasped the correspond wiping his face and looking at hands to see whether or not they v bloody. 'What I wanted to knt Oh ! yes, of course. The enemy over that ridge all right.' "When we returned to headquar General Rawlins saw us and ha me. I weut iuside his tent. "'I thought I told you to lose t copperheud reporter somewhere,' said testily. "'I did the best I could, sir,'I swered. 4He came back; but I h the houor to report the mule a t loss.'

" 'Frieud,' I answered, thiuking I the couutersigu would come to m a moment. '"Advauce, frieud, and give countersign,' said the sentry. "As the countersign had slip from me completely, I walked up him and said, sharply : " 'Call the corporal of the guard " 'Gosh,' answered the sentry knew it was something like that; I'm denied if 1 hadn't forgotten Mosey ou !'

An English statistician has estimated . that the use of eggs in the United s r Kingdom amounts to about 42 eggs per year for each head of population. _ But, according to available American i t statistics, this would be altogether too t low an estimate for the consumption ji , in this country. When one begins to c g figure on probable egg production in d the United Stutes, startling figures are n encountered. Considering that a pop- f ulation of about 4,000,000 people is u A served with eggs from the receipts j ' at New York city, the consumption \ in this vicinity would seem to be j 1 about 250 eggs per year for each 0 ' person. Probubly this is a greater s 1 average consumption than would be t found to prevail in the whole coun- fc e try ; but it would be reasonable to c f estimate an average of 150 eggs for j i each person iu the United States? ( about three eggs per week each. This ] 1 would necessitate a production of say 1 i, 10,500,000,000 eggs, about 20,000,000 \ . cases, averaging 400eggs each. When c I. it is considered that the receipts in { t New York city alone are about one t ji tenth of this amount, while the popu t, , lation using the New York receipts is *] j little more than one-twentieth of the t whole, it would seem certain that the t above estimate is below, rather than n above, the fact. If all these eggs were t I placed in a row lengthwise, they r would form a solid chain of eggs near ^ ly 340,000 miles long?long enough to j eucircle the earth more thau 14 times, t J or to reach 100,000 miles beyond the i s moon. If they were packed iu cases 1 of the average size, aud these were ' ?!1 3 -*? ? ?? ' An J>U A* Ui?H I II t K A notl . piieu uu iuj) ui coun uiuci in i/n^ uoual way, they would make a tower of j egg cases over 5,000 miles high, or t hey s would stretch 10,000 miles if the cases (> were placed eud to end. If the hen? j e of the country average 105 eggs per ^ * year each, this rate of production ^ would indicate a population of 10,000,- j r 000 hens, not to speak of roosters and ,, 1 nou-layiug chickens. At an average i) price of 12 ceuts per dozen, the egg t n crop at this rate of calculation would r represent a value of $105,000,000 pet ( s year. ? Don't Burn a Light All Night, j s The following advice from the Indiana .

It is nervous ' people who are most likely to full into | this bad habit. I know one young ( 11 woman who burns a lamp all night , v long, through the hot summer, with _ 11 doors and windows closed, because if J '* ventilation is ullowed the insects will 11 fly in, which make so much annoyance. ( When reasoned with upon the had , e habit, she said that the baby cried for I it. And he cries and frets all day beq cause of the imperfect rest at night. , I think it would be better to let him ^ e cry a few nights, and have the entire t household rest better thereafter, hes sides the great gain in both mother's ( and baby's health. e Physiology is taught in our public e schools, and yet our young people -( e graduate aud go out to destroy the j . comfort of homes and loved ones by a ^ :. disregard of its plainest laws. '* Thk Medicine Habit.?The medicine habit is a most pernicious one, c . worse, if possible, than the tobacco s ' habit, because it is often forced upon unwilling victims and helpless infancy. (; I have in mind a woman who, when " ? a child, was so frail that her parents * had little hopes of her living to worn 1 ^ anbood ; but by the judicious use of I J water and a fruit diet, by the lime she 1 1 was 15, she was a plump healthy girl r = and continued so until after her mur- 1 riage. e Unfortunately her husband had been 1 E raised on mediciue, and thought every- J body should take medicine, in season > and out of seasou?take it when they ^ * are sick, to get well ; take it when they c are well to keep from getting sick. So his wife was often forced to take r medicine when she knew it was an iu" jury to her health. Well, she suffered along that way e for years, until she lost two children v t and was a mere wreck of her former - self. She knew if she continued iu * s the way she was going she would soon t i be with her children. j v But she arose iu just indignation and r 1 vowed she would take no more me li H f cine; aud if the Lord gave her any more ' f children she would not make an apoth- ' . ecary's shop out of their stomachs. 1 She kept that vow, went back to a 1 c fruit diet, and 10 years afterward she 1 t. is in perfect health, and has two of the 1 . brightest, healthiest children to be r ;r found anywhere. ' e Foods For Hens.?Every farmer t j. knows that when a mild spell of wealher occurs in winter the liens begin to t ^ lay, and then cease when the tempera- [ ture is low. This fact demonstrates I ^ that, warmth has much influence on s laving, and that warm quarters are es- f seutial to egg production. Wiieii the I 1 hens cun go on the ileitis in the spring d a and forage they secure a large amount i s of insect food. During the winter a s ) substitute for such foods may he al c lowed in the form of cut hone, ground t s meat, fresh meat and a change ol t grain. Corn and wheat make excel v lent foods during cold weather; hut a c > variety of the foods must he given in t 1 order to have the hens produce eggs, r ? ? t Keats In Winter.?To secure eggs c 1 through the cold season, it is necessary f first to hatch the pullets so they will 'i { begin to lay about the 1st of October; ?: i second, keep no birds more than two h t years old; third, have substantial, <1 1 warm, hut well, ventilated houses; l ; fourth, nutritious and stimulating food, v ; with plenty of exercise.

The propositions we make herein are t to all responsible individuals, in each and j every locality. There is no monopoly in j the matter. Because an individual re- ] turned the name of a certain subscriber 1 last year, is no reason why he should ' have any claim upon that subscriber this year. Because one individual may al- f ready be at work in a given neighbor- "r hood, is no reason why another should l not also canvass in that neighborhood. < Every clubmaker is entitled to get sub- ' scribers whenever and wherever he or 1 she may be able to get them, and upon compliance with the conditions herein j stated, have them counted. i Our plan of compensation to clubmak- 1 ersthis year is on the same line as here- 1 tofore?a competition for TWO LEAD- " ING PREMIUMS to be awarded for the 1 TWO LARGEST clubs, and a third leading premium for the largest club of NEW SUBSCRIBERS.
