He [warded the train at Monroe, ind at Harrisburg, Pa. he found it necessary to spend the night, lie carried no trunk or suit case. t>ut, like Andrew Johnson or an Irish peddler, carried his goods lied up in a bundle. On the floor of the railway station he found* a carpet, and decided here was his place to sleep. 1 "ats he did, using his bundle ' r a pillow. Next morning he a ote his mother that he spent lie night in Ilarrisburg, but did tot have to go to a hotel, as here was a "nallet" all over the lepot floor.

I have an opportunity to buy ashes from a null at $20 per ton delivered, and said to contain 10 per cent of potash. Is not this high?" Good hardwood ashes that have been kept perfectly dry may possibly contain 10 per of potash, but as a rule the}* have from 5 to 7 per cent. They should contain 35 per cent of lime and a small percentage of phosphoric acid. I would have serious doubts of mill ashes having 10 per cent of potash. If they have been kept perfectly dry, however, the price is not excessive at the present price of potash.?Prof. Massey in Progressive Farmer.

Back to the hotel he went, and next morning his downcast look at traded the attention of a gen teel looking stranger in the hote_l lobby. "Say, Kid, you've run away from your daddy. haven't you?" He confessed that he had, and contided the news that he was terribly home sick also. The stranger breakfasted the boy, and later proved to be a good friend by aiding him in getting a job. Like most boss who run away D. B. Har iington was sick of it. The other day Mr. M. L. Sweat was talking to Post master Quick about the mail se vice, and casually remarked that Mr. Quick's father must have been a mail man also. "No," replied Mr. Quick, "he died when I was a small boy, and never had anything to do w ith the mail." "Ob, I see. If he was not a male man tie was a female m m," cackled Sweat as he went away.
