HUBBARD, ;Neit door to the Egrmeri and Merchant Bank, To Can Vegetables; The manner of canning one kind of vegetables applies to all kinds except corn, and by mixing corn and tomatoes no difficulty is experienced with these. Tomatoes are the easiest to can. and are invaluable to the household. They make delicious soups and sauces. Canned "Watermelon.?Cut rind of ripe melon into small pieces three inches long, first cutting off all green ; boil till tender enough to pierce with a fork. Have syrup made of white sugar to one pound of fruit. Skin out melon and place in syrup with a few pieces of race ginger; put in a can and seal, not hot, after letting it cook for a few moments. i String Beans.?Next to tomatoes, the vegetables easiest to can is the string bean. Remove the tough strings at the side and break the bean into two or three pieces. When ready throw them into boiling water for ten minutr.c and can like tomatoes. Pickli d Peaches.?Twelve pounds peaches with stones ; six pounds su? gar : one pint best cider vinegar ; two ounoes whole cinnamon ; two ounces cloves. Boil spices, sugar and vinegar together for five minutes, then throw in fruit and cook five minutes longer. Ready for use in two weeks. Apple Jelly from Cider.?Take of apple juice, strained, four pounds ; sugar, two pounds; boil to a jellly, and bottle. Whole Tomatoes.?Fill a large stone jar with ripe, spund, whole to? matoes ; add a few cloves and a sprink? ling of sugar between each layer; cover well with one-half cold vinegar and one-half water. Put a piece of thick flannel over the jar, letting it fall down into the vinegar, then tie down with a cover of brown paper. These will keep all winter and if mold collects on the flannel it will do no harm. Tomato Catsup.?One-half bushel tomatoes, one-half gallon vinegar, one-half ounce cayenne pepper, one fourth ounce allspice, one ounce cloves, one-half pint salt. Boil the tomatoes until soft enough to press through a sieve, then add the other ingredients. Boil three hours to reduce one-half the quantity. When cool add one pint of brandy. Bottle and cork tight. Preserved Grapes.?Press the pulp from the fruit. Put the pulp over to boil in a little water. Then press through a colander to remove the seeds. Then put juice, pulp and skins together; add a pound of sugar to a pint, and boil down thick. Preserved Pears.?Pare, halve and core any of the standard brands of pears not too ripe. Place them into a jar or jars. Add three pounds of sugar to every four pounds of pears. Add a little lemon and ginger and enough water to moisten sugar, and I let them steam for about four or fire hours. Some take six hours. Then turn them into small jars and cork them hermetically. The pears may be boiled until tender in the syrup and then place in the jars. If ginger is liked, it makes a very nice preserve to ? use in considerable quantities with the pears. Use the green ginger root called "race ginger." Pear Marmalade.?To six pounds of small pears take four pounds of su? gar. Put the pears into a saucepan with a little cold water; cover it, and set it over the fire until the fruit is soft, then put into cold water ; pare, quarter and core them; put them to 3 teacups of water; set them over the fire; roll the sugar fine, mash the fruit fine and smooth, put the sugar to it, stir it well together until it is thick, like jelly, then put it in tum? blers, or jars, and, when cold, secure it as jelly. Tomato Butter.?One bushel ripe tomatoes ; one-half bushel apples ; five pounds brown sugar; one ounce allspice, one ounce cinnamon, one ounce cloves. Let it come to a boil. Add the apples, peeled and cored. Let them cook together, watching very carefully, more than half a day; then add the sugar. The juice must cook out of them, and it takes an entire day to cook properly. An hour be? fore taking off, add the spices. Pickles.?For pickling use a porce? lain lined kettle; it is most easily cleaned, and acid will not affect it. A few nasturtium pods thrown in your pickles will prevent molding. Keep pickles in tight jars in a cool place. In mixing onions with pickles, put them in the last thing, just before pouring on the vinegar, otherwise the onion flavor will absorb all other fla? vors. Salt wilts all fresh vegetables ; if you want them crisp, do not put salt on them while draining or pre? paring. Put in the last thing. In tbe Homes of tbe Heath' u. Minneapolis, Minn., Aug. 11.?A letter has been received here from Miss Segrid Helgeson, a Norwegian I girl, who went as a medical mission? ary to China a year ago. The letter is dated June 14, at Han-Kow, a place in Central China, on the Yang-Tse Kiang. She writes : Riots and un? lawful acts have occurred daily. Six provinces, not far from here, have of late been devastated?that is the properties belonging to foreigners were destroyed by fire. Many lives have been lost and innumerable ar? rests have followed. We arc are ap? prehensive just now even here. Tele? graph wires are down and we have not had any communication with other settlements for some time. Possibly this is the last as well as my first let? ter home, but you must not think I "am weakening for fear of death. God is with me, if 1 live or die. Yester? day I visited one of my patients and when on my way home was attacked by a mob who threw mud and stones. I was struck on the head. -It made me feel pretty bad for the time, but to-day I am all right. Ooc of my former patients happened to come along and by telling them that I was a harmless doctor, saved my life, which I must surely otherwise have lost. Death Bolts from the Sky, Spartanburo, S. C, Aug. 12.? Yesterday's storm brought death and mourning to the County. Janie Fow? ler, aged 17, and William Fowler, aged 14, children of D. H. Fowler, of Fairmont cotton mills, were killed by lightning yesterday afternoon. George and France, two other children, were severely shocked, but they are not seriously injured. There were about a dozen persons in one room at Mr. Fowler's house. They had been sing? ing, but when the storm came up they stopped. Janie went to the door to look out and William went to a win? dow. Their hands or bodies were against the facings when the deadly bolt came. All in the room were prostrated. A little child was knock? ed out of a swing, but it was not hurt. About the same time a colored woman, Maria Gee, was killed in a house near Glenn Springs. She had a child in her lap at the time but its life was spared. There were other persons in the room who were severely shocked. ? C/rct nvillc News. ? Farmers in Fairfield report that two or three fields of cotton in that County are ruined from rust on ac? count of pokeberry bushes growing in the field. The pokeberry is said tq he a deadly rjnemy to cotton. Dixie Daring the War as Seen by a Boy. Dr. A. W. Lamar, of the First Bap? tist Church, Galvcston Texas, gave a series of charming pictures of boyhood life on a South Carolina plantation in his recent lecture on "'Dixie Before the War." He spoke most tenderly of his "black mammy," that bygone institution of Southern family life. In describing some of the sports and playmates of those ' olden times he presented the scenes of a 'possum hunt in the early days of October. A fishing expedition as given by Dr. Lamar was also very interesting, and the atmosphere of which he treated was that of simple, natural life, full of sweetness, the realistic scenes from out the dim gloaming of a past now gone forever. Dr. Lamar's second lecture was on "Dixie during the War as seen by a Boy," in which he stated that a boy in South Carolina in 18(30 saw himself launched on a field of history such as the world had never before and hardly would sec again. As he listened to the discussions that went on among [ the older people, and heard the sounds of rejoicing when the State seceded I and Georgia fell into line, he wanted to be a soldier more than anything else in the world ; and when he finally became one he was afraid the war would be over before he got a chance to fight. But by the time he had been in two or three battles he was not quite so anxious for the smell of gunpowder. Of the social inner life of the South, Dr. Lamar spoke at some length. The ports soon became closed and prices advanced. In 1864 flour was ?4,000 a barrel, a ham cost $1,000 and coffee, when it could be had at all, was $100 a pound; but if everything else was scarce, money was plenty. After the war closed whole houses were papered with money. The lec? turer spoke with feeling of the cour? age and valor of the soldiers who marched for days with only parched corn for food, and of the time when in 1865 the army that had started out believing that a few short months would see the end, numbering only 160,000 from the Potomac to the Rio Grande, its flower and chivalry left upon the field of battle, while that to which it succumbed was 950,000 strong. Dr. Lamar also gave some touching incidents of the friendliness that often showed itself between the Blues and the Gray, as the opposing forces were camped near each other for days at a time, and closed with a tribute to the negro race who bore the four years' struggle with such patience and loy? alty, and were true to the homes and the interests they had been left to guard. Dr. Lamar closed his course of lec? tures with one on the "New South." "Thirty years ago, when Lee surren? dered," began the Doctor, "the South gave up all she had save hope and honor 'and God, and turning her face toward the future was confronted by a problem such as had never before con? fronted any other civilized nation. Her territory had been under the heels of conflicting armies for four long years, her homes were destroyed, her schools shut, her banks closed and her social life turned upside down, as it were, and out of this chaos she had | to rise by her own efforts. By 1876 a change began to make itself felt, and by 1881 confidence had begun to come back and Northern capital to come in. To-day a glorious future opens up through the South? land. It is an ideal country for work, as there is hardly a day when it need ba suspended because of the weather. The cotton crop has increased 100 per cent, within the last ten years, and the cereal crops even more. Her manufacturing interests are largely on the increase, and her growth in the manufacture of iron has been so rapid as to excite universal attention. The day is coming when Texas alone will produce nine-tenths of all the cotton in the world.?Philadelphia Press. Talking Himself to Drain The doctors of the Osawatomie, Kas., insane asylum keep John N. Reynolds, famous as an ex-convict, under the influence of opiates about half the time. They have to do it to prevent him from talking himself to death. He wants to make speeches day and night. One morning he com? menced to deliver a temperance lecture and did not quit for twenty-seven hours, and only then when he fainted from hunger and exhaustion. He weighed 200 pounds when he entered the asylum. He has talked himself down to 120. Reynolds is the only man in the United States who ever ran for senator while an inmate of the penitentiary. He was formerly pres? ident of a bogus livestock insurance company at Atchison, and was sent to the penitentiary for the fraudulent use of the mails. He claimed that his enemies were persecuting, and, to test his standing in the community, announced himself as a candidate for State Senator. He received 500 votes. Upon his release from prison Reynolds wrote a book about penitentiaries of Kansas and Missouri. It was entitled "Twin Hells." Reynolds cleared about $40,000 on the sale of the book, but the money went as fast as he got it. Two years ago he took the lecture platform in the interest of prison re? form. He kept up six months and then his mind went wrong. A Curious Clock A missionary traveling in China, happened to ask the native guide who accompanied him the time. The Chinaman immediately went over to a cat that was near by, took it up, and carefully examined its eyes. He then came back and announced that it was two hours after noon. On being asked on what principle he had made his calculation, he replied that by some automatic device in the eyes of all animals, the pupil contracts or expands as the light increases or diminishes. We have all experienced this on going into the dark room. At first we can see nothing, or very little, but after a while the surrounding objects become very distinct, owing to the expansion of the pupil of the eye. This is es? pecially so in the case of the cat; so much so, in fact, that the phases of the expansion and contraction of the pupil can be plainly marked. At day? break the cat's pupils attain their greatest size, then they gradually de? crease in size till dark; after that they begin to grow larger till daybreak. If we remember these facts, by carefully noting the size of the pupil we can give a pretty shrewd guess at the time. However, it must be admitted that for the proper working of this clock a cloudless day is absolutely necessary, as the least cloudiness les? sons the light, and the changes of the pupil are less noticeable. Something That a Hoy Should Know. A boy said: "How hard it is to do right! I've tried and tried, and there's no use trying any longer." But one day, after reading his Bible, he said: "Why, I've been trying to change myself all the time, and here I read that only God can change me. I can no more change my heart than a colored man can make himself white. How foolish 1 have been not to ask Ilim!" And he was right. Are you trying to change your own heart? You can never do it. It will get worse and worse until you n?k .Jesus to giy?J you a new heart. The Physics of the Bicycle, When a wheelman is moviDg forward on a bicycle, what keeps him up ? That is the question asked by inquisi? tive minds, as the rider passes swiftly alog on a wheel base practically with? out width. Sitting on a still wheel is an almost impracticable feat; but it is simple enough to maintain an upright position when moving at a very slow speed. It is a physical fact that a motion persists in maintaining its plane of motion, and unless some ad? ditional force acts on the body at an angle to the original line of motion, it will continue to move in its original plane until stopped by friction or arrested by an obstruction. A body set in motion tends to move in a straight line, and will do so unless affected by a force acting on it in a different direction from that of the first movement. To illustrate this point we might refer to the rim of a flywheel, which moves in a certain plane, but not in a straight line, because it is confined to a circular path by its spokes. Should the flywheel burst, its parts would fly off in paths that would be perfectly straight but for the force of gravity, and it is only too well known that these pieces are not easily deflected from the paths taken by them at the moment of the explosion A wheelman is propelled through space at a velocity sufficient to cause him to maintain his plane of move? ment. Should he desire to change this plane of motion, as in describing a curve, he can do it only by calling in the aid of gravitv, i. e., he must lean to the concave side of the circle, more or less, according to the radius of the curve he is following. And further, in describing a curve, he is impelled outwardly by centrifugal force which is more or less, according to his velocity, and he must oppose this force by a centripetal force, which in this case is gravity. This he does also by inclining his body toward the center of curvature of the path he is describ? ing. In this case the wheel sometimes forms a considerable angle with the ground, so that under some conditions it slips from tinder the rider. It is in view of this fact that the circular bi? cycle race track at Manhatten Beach, Coney Island, has lately been con? structed with a considerable downward inclination toward the center, so that wheels spinning on this curved track would be more nearly at right angles with the surface on which they roll. The ability of a bicycle and rider in rapid motion to do serious damage in a collision with another machine or with a pedestrian is fully appreciated by few wheelmen. A man weighing 150 pounds and moving at the rate of ten feet per second (which is only about seven miles per hour) has a momentum of 1,500 pounds, leaving out of the account the weight of the wheel. This is sufficient to* upset any pedestrian with terrific force. It has been sug? gested that the pneumatic tire forms a sort of fender which would prevent serious concussion in case of a collision. It would undoubtedly have a slight modifying effect, but it would be of little account. A collisi?n between two wheels, each with a 150 pound rider, spinning at the moderate speed of seven miles per hour, would result in a smashup with a force of 3,000 pounds. In view of these facts, it is no wonder that bicycle accidents arc often very serious. ! The tractive force required to pro pell a bicycle over a smooth level sur? face is estimated at 0.01 of the load ; calling the load 150 pounds, a force of 1* pounds would be required to move the wheel forward, and this calls for a pressure on the pedals of 62 pounds I on a wheel geared in the usual manner. "When, however, the road is rough or on an up grade, the case is different. On a grade of 1 in 10, for example, the rider in addition to the tractive force, actually lifts one-tenth of his weight and that of the machine. With a rigid or semi-rigid tire the rider is obliged to exert sufficient force to lift himself over every obstruction encountered by the wheel; the descent from the obstruction gives back a por? tion of the power expended in sur? mounting it, but not all of it. In the case of the pneumatic tire, however, the small obstructions are not an op? posing element of any consequence, as the tire yields, in lieu of the wheel being raised, and the result is the wheel travels as upon a smooth track. ?Scientific American. ?

For sale by Hill Bros._ Some Famous MeaT Thomas Jefferson is not so well re? membered as the devoted father to his little girls as is Jefferson the political leader; but on both counts he should be known to fame. Tender as a wo? man was the strong, brainy man, the largest figure by all odds injthe heroic period of independence declaring and constitution making. Devoted to his wife, and never quite reconciled to her early death, he had more than a fa? ther's love for his children. He was a dotard on babies, and for the girl baby, child or grandchild, he had a fondness that was extravagant. Seven children were born to Thomas Jefferson, all girls but one. They all died in childhood, saving one, the oldest, Martha afterwards Mrs. Randolph. When their mother died, in 1782, leaving him with three girls?aged re sp. ctively 10 years, 4 years and (the youngest) 4 months?Thomas Jeffer? son, the man of whom we rarely think except as a splendid figure in public affairs, a giant intellectually and phy? sically, even in age of giants, because, in Mrs. Randolph's words, "their chief nurse." He attended in person to their inoculation for smallpox, and was loath to leave them to other hands when Congress for the third time call? ed upon him to go to Europe as a Plenipotentiary. Wherever his busy life as a diplomat, statesman, Vice President or President carried him, he always found time to scribble notes to his small children and grandchildren? notes that were full of child talk such as only a heart full of genuine child love could instruct the pen of a man to write. And as they grew, his let? ters kept advancing in seriousness at an even pace with their intelligence. It is a pity that Jefferson's letters to his children and grandchildren have not been published by themselves, so arranged as to show their proper se? quence. Many of them arc long aad full of homely philosophy, which might well furnish instructive and entertaining reading to the children of this and all coming time. As models to show fond fathers how to write and talk to their young children, especially their girls, the charming epistles of the Sage of Monticello to his daughter Martha? "My Dear Patsey"?are without any rivals in American literature. Queen Victoria has in her possession one of these remarkable letters of Jefferson to his little daughter Martha when 11 years of age. It was given her by the Jefferson family at her own request when she was only Princess Victoria and herself a mere girl. One of Jef? ferson's granddaughters wrote this about him: "Our grandfather seemed to read our hearts, to see our individual wishes, to be our good genius, to wave a fairy wand to brighten our young lives by his goodness and his gifts." He romped with them like a child when he was gray, fiddled for their dancing, invented games and pastimes for them, and joined in all their sports. Abra? ham Lincoln was as fond of his boys as Thomas Jefferson of his girls. That sad face, all of whose portraits haunt you after you have looked at them, with their mournfully anxious expres? sion, found its chief motive to relaxtion in the play he had with his little boys. He never governed them, but was just a sort of big playfellow for them. People who were disposed to criticise thought he let them do too much as they pleased, but, being a child-lover, he could not help it. The decorum of a Cabinet meeting, in the days when every Cabinet meeting was a council of war, big with the fate of the Union armies and the Union itself, was often suspended for a few moments while little Tad ran in, climbed on to Father Abraham's knee, and got a license to do something or other that was frisky and irregular. So, too, the softest spot in General Grant's heart was the same, his love for his children.?New York Times. Under Setting Hens The blind tiger people all over the State have resorted to all kinds of schemes, devices, plans, wrinkles, etc., but never before has one of them re? sorted to frizzles in order to conceal their stock in trade until yesterday. And that tbe frizzles brought into play should be on a setting hen seem a little unique. The constables have long been watching a man named Gibson, sus? pecting him being a walking "blind tiger"?one of those fellows who carry their bottles in their pockets and sup? ply their patrons on the spot. Yes? terday they became convinced that he was doing this kind of business, so they went down to his place and made a complete search. In a valise they found several pint bottles. The rest of it was found in a hen nest under a setting hen?two half-pint bottles of whiskey. Whether Gibson expected the hen to hatch several barrels of whiskey out of each of these small bottles does not appear. Anyway, he was arrested and locked up. He gave bond and obtained his release in the afternoon. The constables are jubilant that they have found a "nest of whiskey" at last.?Columbia State. READ!.READ!.READ!!

In this day of contested wills and wills which arc palpably unjust it is pleasant to find one which all good men can approve, one which will stand without question in every court of law and morals. Such a will was left by the late Wal? ter Q. Grcsham. It is so brief that we give it in its entirety as follows: "I, Walter Q. Grcsham, do hereby make this my last will and testament. I give, devise and bequeath to my wife, Matilda Grcsham, all my estate, prop? erty and effects, real and personal, and of every kind and description, and wheresover situate, to have and hold absolutely. I appoint my said wife executrix of this will." This brief document gives an insight into one of the noblest things about Judge Grcsham, his beautiful family life. He was in all respects a model citizen. The most crucial test of true manhood is given by his conduct at home. There Judge Grcsham was the ideal man. His home was ever to him and to every member of his household a place of perfect joy. He was such a husband and father as every man should be. That is more to his credit than all the record of his public hon? ors. Edith's Marriage Fortlon. It is now announced that her father, John D. Rockefeller, is going to settle upon her at the time of her marriage only $1,000,000. For several weeks it has been noised around that Edith was going to outshine the Gould girl, who married a count, by about 2 to 1; that her portion would not be less than $35,000,000, and indeed that is said tobe her prospective inheritance; but.her papa proposes to let her pro? spective husband marry her for what she is, plus a beggardly $1,000,000. But we arc glad to hear that the en? gagement will not be broken on this account. Edith is going to marry a man of more account than a count. Harold McCormick, of Chicago, is no pauper himself, and by prudent man? agement Harold and Edith will be able to get along as nicely as if they were in better circumstances. Of course, it is a hard blow to Edith to be turned out of her father's home with only $1,000,000 to begin house? keeping on, but it may be just the discipline she needs. She may yet live to thank her father-for having made her plan and economize for her? self. Anyhow, it won't hurt her a bit. Many a young couple have gone to housekeeping with less money in the bank, than she will have, and some of them have done quite well. If she were going to marry a duke or a count it would be different, but she isn't; she is going to marry a man.?Detroit Journal.
