# Turning: Into Cats, Once there "was a law *tlmt, on a certain dav, when the meeting bouse bell rang for noon, everybody should turn . into a cat. Some people don't believe this is; true; but you ask the children and the bam swallows! Well, and so you may be sure it was great fun to sit up on the big granite ro^k on the side of Deer hill and see J them turn, just where they were and whatever they were doing, at that very j iixiu uvu ; Tiie minister's son had come into the study, with his hat in his hand, and ; said: " Shall Cornelius aud I, sir, take our scythes, sir, and go out and mow a little , while, sir?" Aud then Mr. Fadyon's fool caught hold of the bell rope. Mr. Fadyon's fo >1 knew some things as well as anybody; and he knew how to ring the bell exactly when the suu dial and the noon mark and his grandmother's ,: eight-day clock said it was noon. So " iling, dong !" went the bell, aud 11 ?it was only a Maltese kitten that had hold of the rope ! j i Just at that hour, Aunt Patty was out in her garden hoeing weeds, with an old j i hat of Uncle Rodney's tied on her head; I and she began to turn, first her nose and i i then her chin. They were very long and sharp when she wa3 Aunt Patty, and i' they grew short and snubby, and whiskers began to sta t, and her ears pricked up as though she heard something, and | < then, quicker than you could say j " scat!" she was a spotted cat chasing ' . Deacon Davis' hens, -that were trying to j sneak through the garden fence with the j i old rooster's spurs o n After searing ' i them half out of their feathers, shP kept nn t.hmnarh "M"rs T)f><uv?n Davis' rat hole, i and up in the back chamber, where she < prowled about and sniffed in all the dark corners and behind the old tea chests and barrels. | j When she was Aunt Patty she always ! had mistrusted whether or no Mrs. f Deacon Davis hadn't some cobwebs and i pokelioles out of eight, for all that she < kept everything looking neat as wax on the outside. ' < And therw the minister's son jumped i with one spring on the minister's shonl- 1 der, and began to bite the minister's < hair and claw off his glasses, for he liked ] rough ways and mischief as well n* any j boy, only he had to be proper b^ause < he was tlie minister's sou. < i The minister looked around solemn ' ] and dignified, a good'deal astonished; ] and then his glasses grew rounder and j rounder, end his arms grew slenderer < and slenderer; and then he seemed to i wink all over; and then there was a ] grest black cat, with a white spot on his 1 throat aud a white face and four white . feet, sitting in the study chair, snapping at the flies, with one paw on a volume of Jonathan Edwards' sermons. , It was a great change for the minister. , Bat as for Mrs. Deacon Davis, she didn't seem to need to alter hardly a bit. "J Ht eves were the mildest skim-milk be- , fore, much more faded than an old cat's eyes; and her hair was pale buff and sort of furry. And she had a way of rubbing ; herself against tlie side of her chair as ; she talked along in a kind of purr-purr- ' ing tone. She stopped work for tlie first time-in her life, though, and taking her yellow paws out of the wash tub, went to j' chasing dandelion-down. ; But as soon as ten clocks anywhere in 1 ] town struck one at the same second, all tlie cats turned back to people again; j and you ought to have seen how sur-i1 prise^t they were to catch themselves j doing such odd things. Aunt Patty was rummaging through 1 the minister's wife's bureau drawer among her best clothes; and, bad as that ( looked in a cat, it looked a thousand j! times worse in Aunt Patty, with Uncle j 1 Roduey's hat still on her head and a hoe ' under her arm. J Mrs. Deacon Davis was curled up asleep in the rocking chair, and she , rubbed her cye3 and put hep hands in the wash tub again, and didn't know any- ' tiling had happened. She wouldn't be- ! lieve it now if you should tell her. Only, ] when her clock struck one (it was always a little slow); she felt grieved to see a few cat's hairs on her chair cushion, anil 1 to find she nad lost so much good time right out of tlie heart of the day. " But 4-U nr? " elm ?f TV* vr nor\ llflQ j VitV/llj OUV 4J4J *\^rwvi | ine up complete] v, and with such poor , health as I enjoy, I do suppose I needed ' it. i nd, all is, I must work the sufarter , to make up." , The minister looked most astonished to find himself playing with a large { brown, limp rat. " It is very extrnor- , dinary ! Most remarkable !" said he. " Gloriana!" he continued, turning to the black serving maid, who was swinging herself down from the cherry tree, ; where, a moment before, she had been a , black kitten, chasing a squirrel. " Glori- . ana ! you may hike this dead animal and bury the creature in the garden. It will act as a fertilizer." And then he began to walk up and . down the footpath, from the door to the gate, with his hands behind him, and to think over the heads of his next sermon. On the whole, it was funnier when the cats became people than when the people became cats; they were so surprised and shocked to find where they were aud what they were doing.?St. Nicholas for April, ' Imagination a Cure. The Sacramento Record says : A Sacr amen tan who had heard and read a great deal about the blue glass cure, concluded that he would try it for his rheumatism. He accfwrdingly procured half a dozen panes, inserted them in the window of his bathroom, and took a "sun bath," according to the prescribed formula, for three successive days. His wife had been away from home, and when she returned she was delighted to hear that the new cure had done her husband a wondrous amount of good. He was eager to have her see the new window, and she felt considerable curiosity on the subject herself, but on entering the bathroom she burst into a fit of iaughter, which was explained a moment' later by her ejaculation : " That's your mazarine blue glass! Why, goosey, that isn't blue; that's green!" He doesn't feel so well now. . So Happy, A New York lawyer, while waiting for a client, whose counting-room overlooked a North river pier, saw a letter floating in the water. He stepped out of the office, fished up the letter with his cane and opened it. It was written iu a fine running hand?a woman's hand ; it was bright and interesting ; it was addressed to " My dear uncle," and bore the full signature of a Portland lady. The lawyer sent the letter to the lady with a note describing the maimer in *hich it had been recovered. In answer to his letter she explained that the " dear uucle " was a captain of a steaml?oat plying on the sound. Letters were exchanged and there was a wedding in Portland late in February ; and now there are two happv people in PlainScid, N. J. All of which is dastmty, FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. ('lianKiiiK I lie Henritij< Year of Orclinrri*^ Last year apples were so abundant that, in some localities, they would not pay for handling, and large quantities were left to decay where they fell. In view of the fact that a year of excess and low prices, is followed by one of scarcity and high prices, inquiries have come to us in such numbers, as show that many art; 'juusiueiiug mc? ui changing this state of affairs. It is an encouraging sign that farmers are induced to think about their orchard at all, for as a general thing there is no part of their belongings so neglected as this. Tiees are set, but it is looked upon rather as a waste of laud, so the orchard must be cropped, and while no other part of the farm is expected to do it, that occupied by the orchard must yield two crops. The cause of all trouble with fruit trees, whether of failure altogether, or occasional excessive bearing, and the rest, may be summed up iu one word,? neglect. We now confine our remarks to the present trouble, and to auswering the various iuquiries about alternate bearing. The apple tree left to itself, will generally bear such an abundant crop that it requires another year, and sometiinefe longer, to recuperate, and accumulate sufficient nutriment to form buds and nourish another crop. This tendency is very marked in some leading varieties, and as it has been go ing on for many years, the habit lias become fixed, and when we propagate these varieties, the young trees start with that as one of their peculiarities, in which they have been educated, so to speak? It is well known that this tendency is much more marked in some varieties than in others, and while some naturally fall iuto alternate bearing, others resist it, and will, if they have a fair chauoe, give a crop of fruit every year. This is a character to which little attention has been given by our promologists ; they state if a tree comes into bearing early?or if it is an abundant or shy bearer, but its tendency to annual or biennial bearing is rarely recorded, while it is one of the most important qualities. Varities that naturally bear annually, maybe converted into biennial bearers by starvation ; planted, as they often are on poor soil, and robbed of their nutriment by anothef crop, trees cannot jet focal enough to enable them to carry even a small crop every year, and they ire forced into alternate bearing. The practical question is, how can trees that now bear excessively one year and nothing the next, be made to bear moderately ?very year. So far as the alternate bearing is due to the poverty of the soil, the remedy is evident, and no doubt would be, with many varieties, sufficient.? Agriculturist. (ireen Worms on Cabbage. C. Alexander, Staunton, Va., wrote the American farmers' club inquiring the best means for destroying the green tvorm on cabbage. The worm referred to the writer described as from an inch to one-half inch long at maturity. It lias for several years past been very destructive to the cabbage crop in his vicinity. The application of salt, lime, saltpeter, infusion of tobacco and wheat bran have been made without effect. J. A. Wagener suggested iron clippings for destroying these worms. A member stated that hellebore is often used for this purpose, but that he jjre"erred an application of buckwheat lour, it being equally efficacious aud j ilscr harmless. Two applications are generally sufficient, the flour to be sifted through a sieve in the evening or in the morning when the dew is on. A farmer said that there is no variety cabbage that so- well withstands the ittaoks of insects as the green glazed. He furthermore added that cabbage required a deep, rich soil, aud for summer rarieties it should incline to be moist, though it must not be soggy. Returning to the iron clippings, Mr. Wagener was asked by a visitor present who once owned laud on which vegetables would not thrive, owing to its having too much iron in its composition, liow he would treat such soil. Mr. Wagener replied that he would uhl lime, wood ashes and manure. ( rape Fungi. Mr. Hudson, who had had his attention called to common table salt for grape disease, brought the matter before tho American farmers' club for their consideration. The direction was to scatter Cure for Chicken Cholera. C. B. E., asks for the best remedy for chicken cholera. Reply.?The disease known as " chicken cholera " is a disease of the liver, a bilious fever in fact. The remedy is to give a purgative, as one teaspoonful of a saturated solution of epsoin salts, or | what is better, half that quantity of a | - - 1 i-i-*? similar solution 01 nypos input to ui ouun once a day. Astringents to stop the diarrhea only make the fowls worse. When this has been given three days, ; give one pill three times a day made as follows : Take one dram of powdered j rhubarb, one dram of sulphate of cop- j per, powdered; one ounce each of ground ginger and cayenne pepper, and , as much scraped castilc scap as will work the mass up into a stiff paste, using a j little water if needed. Make this into pills the size of peas, roll them in flour, j and keep them in a box for use.

Col. Frederick A. Bee, who appeared ' before the Congressional committee re- ; cently in San Francisco, says a local paper, in defense of the Chinese, who | has taken a prominent part in opposing I the anti-coolie movement in general, and : lias-interested himself in the raising of j funds to assist in bringing the perpetra- 1 tors of the late outrage at Chico to jus- ! tice, has received a postal card reading ;, as follows : "Col. F. A. Bee, City. . I " Dear Sir : The ll of 708 have you ] marked ! You had better not have sent i your $500 to Chico. The Chinamen have . i got to leave this country, and that little ! j affair in Butte county is only a prelimi- | nary. Take my advice and leave this ! j State in thirty days or you will be killed.

It is reported that at a recent ] meeting of an anti-coolie club in that j city the Chico massacre was approved, ! amid cries of " That's what we want." J ????? i The Important Question. J < Of all loathsome diseases catarrh stands pre- J ] eminent. It renders its victim as disgusting to !, himself as to others. And the most humiliating * of all is the consciousness that his presence is offensive to those around liiiu. If any disease deserves the name of universal, it is this. Dietetic errors and the follies which fashion I imposes upon us tend to foster and disseminate ; 1 it* To the pitiful cry of its victims, is there any cure for catarrh ? there is but one answer consistent with Christian reason. God has never sent one evil into the world for which he has not 6ent the remedy. For the greatest of all spiritual and moral evils, the great physician ' has prescribed a potent and never failing reme- 1 dy. He has given explicit rules for the treat- , ment and preservation of the spiritual and moral man, out Ho is silent in all matters re- I lating to the physical man. It would be an I unwarrantable detraction from His l>eneficent character to suppose that He has afflicted the ! greater portion of humanity with an incurable j disease. The day of plagues is paet. The God < of Christianity is a God of love, of mercy, i ] His message is "good will to all men." The ? earth and all contained therein was intended ' by the great Designer to supply man's wants ; j and svrelv he has no greater wants than reme- ' dies for his infirmities. Science i6 rapidly ' proving that the earth is fitted to supply man's uttermost need. New medicinal plants are constantly being discovered and new properties developed front those already known. For catarrh, the most potent remedy yet discovered * is Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. Its efficacy has been tested iu many thousand <fases with uniform success. Cases that had been repeatedly pronounced incurable, readily yielded to it. In confirmed, or obstinate cases', Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should be taken in connection with the use of the Catarrh Remedy. Full particulars ip Pierce's memorandum books.

There is no doubt, he thought, that anything that will injure the roots of a grape-vine, whether it be phylloxera, over-dampness, extra richness or other causes, will result in fungoid diseases to perhaps both fruit and vine, but the labors of an intelligent person in the matter of the oidium leave no doubt that vines in every way healthy can fall a prey to this destructive pest when it once gets fully under way. Coal AnIh'.x. A reader of Scribncr writes to inquire whether the value of hard coal ashes as a manure for fruit trees and flower gardens is great enough to pay him for carting them three miles for these purposes, the ashes costing nothing. The value of hard coal ashes rests in the amount of potash they contain. This is very trifling indeed, seldom reaching tw%per cent., and not enough to establish any fixed priee per ton mn them as fertilizers for garden or farm nse. Practical men, who have experimented time and again with anthracite coal ashes as a manure, generally conclude that they don't pay for the labor of handling. The material will be found .much more serviceable in the construction of walks around the house or barn, or through the garden. At one time it was currently believed that coal ashes were a useful agent in loosening and keeping open stiff clay soils. Experience has proved, however, that there are plentv of agents more effi - ?i l _ -1 cieiit and less expensive tnan coai asnes for tliis purpose. Unless there are considerable wood ashes mixed with tbein, using them as a manure is doubtful economy. The Weight of Cattle. Measure in inches the girth around the breast, just behind the shoulder blade, and the length of the back from the tail to the fore part of the shoulder bl ide. Multiply the length of the girth (in inches) and divide by 14-1. If the girth is less than three feet, multiply the quotient by eleven; if between three and five feet, multiply by seven; if betwentv five and seven feet, multiply by twenty-three; if between seven and nine feet, multiply by thirty-one. If the animal is leau deduct one-twentieth from the result. Another rule is, take the girth and length in feet and multiply the product by 336, and result will l>? the answer in pounds. Xhe live weight multiplied by 605 gives > n*ar approximation to the weight. I Elevator, Annunciator and Exchange. The Grand Central Hotel, New York, hrj the largest passenger elevator in the world.

Merrick writes: "Truly, I am grateful to your noble invention. My sight is restored by your Patent Eye Cups. May Heaven bless and preserve you. I have beep using spectacles tweuty year6. I am seventy-one years old. I do all ?ny t writing withont glasses, and I bless the inventor of ! the Patent Eye Cups every time I take up my old steel pen." Adolph Biornbkrq, M.

Ball A Co., I hereby recommend the trial of ths Eye Cups (in full faith) to all and every one that has any impaired eyesight, believing as I do, that since the experiment with this wonderful discovery has proved successful on me, at my advanced period or lifeninety years of age?I believe they will restore the vision to^auy individual if they are properlj applied.
