A Man or 'Fiith." The man who shtids on a dry goods box and tells the public thalt, the inedi. ceho in the little bottles before himt is a sure cure for this or that complaint inds about two believers out of every IundreI who pass. [i he only luads 0110 his expectations are answered, 1111d he makes a good t hing out of it. le began his talk yesterday with an audi once of one. It was a l'at, Ileshy young man of 25 with a double ehin and a red neck-tie, and "fakth" was written across his face in letters broad and plain, "Gentlemen," began the vender, a. he looked the young man . in the face, do you have a feeling bf nashua at you r, stomachs? If so, one of these 10 conl bottles of my world pannersea will in stantly relieve and ure.'" ' "Just what I want," replied the young man, and he laid down 10 cents and took a bottle. ^ "Gentlemen,'' continued the vender, "do youlhave backache candechills? If so, I warrantti8 pannersea to cure you at two doses. It has been tried by Kings and Emperors, and it has give- tail ver-" ".Been looking for Just this cure," interrupted the young lan, and he paid lor a second bottle and fell back Into his old tracks. "Gentlemen, it gives me pleasure to assert that this medleino was origi nally Invented as a cure lor headache." softly remarked the seller. "When I say it will cure the worst case of head ache ever known In from three to live minutes, I solemnly mean what I say. It has been tried in 10,000 cases." "Might as well knock my headache while I'm about it," said the young man to himself and he laid down a quarter and received Ills correct change - for another bottle. The young man was still the only audience. . Falth brightened oi his face, and he laid down 10 cents with the remark: "My old liver is always kicking up trouble, and I guess I'll cure her I" "My fellow-citizens," remarked the seller as he mopped his face, "are you troubled with toothache, . cutaneous diseases, palpitation of the heart, loss of sleep, or in-growing toe-nails?" "We are1" solemilly repliC( the young man, and lie invested lin another bottle. "A imericans-reemen-aro you stib ject to coughs, hoarseness, bronchitis, quinsy, consumnption, 11igh timare, loss of memory, whooping-cougi. or fall ing out of hair?" "Hlanged If we ain't!" whispered - the young sellow with the double-chin, and he pocketed his sixth bottle and - walted for further oratory. ils re markable faith staggered the dealer, who finally said: "I guess you have had enough for this time. Take according to directions and you will soon feel the beneficial effects." "Yes. I wlli--thank you ever so much-yes-,'' stammered the young man. "This. 'ere rmedy isn't good for fits, is it?" "Well, well,'' slowly answered the * venlder-thmat is not the regular cure for * its, "Then I guess I'll take whlat I've got and get cured of all these things youl mentioned, and thien go for the fits alone and give 'em thunijder and blazes, wouldn't you ?" "1 guess so." "Yes that's the way. If you bring out anything for Ilts I want you to save * me a gallon. I've been unider' the weather Just as long ats I cani standl it G00(d-by." Chndi1-en's Hair. Ilow often the soft, flossy hair of children is seen Crimped, pinchied and curled, and nothing is so injurious to tile ultimlate health of the hair as this sort of treatment. Wee creatures of thlree or four yaa and een younger * are arrayed In curl papers by affection ate and admiring mothers wvho are bent upon making the chIldren chirming, * anld who do not stop to consider howv *far they may be defeating thleir ownl ends by tile action, or hlow much p~ain they may be0 indilcting on the objects of their kind solicitude. An authority on that subject says: "Up to the age of six, chlildren retain what Is called their 'baby hair,' whlich Is injured1, not im * proved, by cutting. Ini its soft and delicateo slkiness, it Is like tile plumage * of a younrg bird, and Is quite different from the harsher hair which succeeds it. .If the hair curls naturally it looks charming dressed in that fashIon, but putting it In papers is sure to Injure it and pull it out by tile r'bots. 'The use of curling irons is atil more objection able; anything which tangles and cuts the hair is bad in the extreme, and It, is to be regretted that mothers draw so heavily on the capital of their chlildren's hlair Instead of using the yearly increas *ing interest of Its beauty and valuie." One dlisastro3us resul~t arising from the prevalent custom of allowing the hair to flow unconfined down (lie shoulders haas been, in some cases, disease of the slaine, or other ills of a kindred nature. This has been attribu ted to the heat of the hair, when It Is thick, and as the hair Is a non-conducitor, the constAnt warmth of it about the neck and shoul ders becomes a weakening agency thlat betrays itself in some nalserable form. The scalp of the head should always be kept clean. The hair should1( not be brought in contact with very sharp. comb teeth ; it should be carefully and well brushed, and loosely coiled in one of the becoming fashions that abound at present, without being Injurious to the growth or ;beauty of thle hair, or - detrimen~tal to the physical struOtitre .In any way.

Til PRACT11.0E4 OF F"AL. PL.owIxO, Disiategration Is one of the great se crets of the benenciil effects from 0tl plowing. Its action is both mechanieal atu chemieal. Land when hroken by the plough holds a greater percentage of-titer. It freezes wion lin this wet state. then it thaw.s and the idisintegra tion Is complete. All molt tire receiv Cd on the sIrIce f&itors thirongh ti pulverized eanrtuh eveily, aid inl contse (itqonce the mntitrlal properties iII the water reach every particle o- the soil and are relained. Another ativititarig of fall ploughing Ishe timch greater surface ol' soil exposed. Unomitpact ground presents but one sirface t tite air, wiile that which is well brokenl eXipOsA nearly every side of evVry p'at* tile of soil a.s deep as the iithi goes. The tilth is also deepened, Und eCIlay subsoll thrown on to) becotncs subjeu ted to atmospheric actions which pre pare it for any solvents that may be applied. Tie uneartliig of pestilent Insects from their comfortable iIding places in the fall, and exposing them to the weather is one of the Incalculable benefits arising from fall ploning. Tihe turming under of cockle-burrs, ox eye daisy, foxtail and other noxious Weeds with the strl)blo of the grain fields before their seeds mature Is still another benefit, as these growths are destroyed and forced to serve the land they previously burdened by enriching It. Farmers who are constantly coni plaining that plowing under certaln weeds only tends. to a more luxirlois growth, tire reminded that weeds which are propagated by seed should be turned under beforo the seed ripens. If the process is delaycd, a foul crop of weed seed Is planted instead of desti oy ed. Cultivators who understand tite good effects of fall plowing, some of which, by the way, Is best accomplish ed during the summer, will soont set tile plows.moving II they aro not alrca dy started, on lands designed for winter grain, fall seedings, at( for corn next. spring. PORKC OR BACON.-lt is oft en a ques tion with farmers whether to sell their hors in tle fall as pork, or convert them into bacon, to be reserved for a better market during the year? 'l'his will depend, In part, upon the locality of the farmer. As a general tile, if ie lives a considerable distance from market, then his chances for prollt lit baconing his pork are greater, because lie not only allows im1t.self more 11ime and opportunity to ol.tain better prices, bit secures a considerable reduction in the cost of transportation. ost far lmters tire accustomed to piit aiway pork enough to serve their famlies the en.. tire year, and in doing so are sipposed it) secure their meat at less cost tan to sell it as pork and hbuy their bncon . It, therefore, the praelice holds good in such cases, why should i1 not hold equally good with all the hogs lie hus to kill? It Is trite, the answer to this question is somiewhat conditonal; but thenIt it may be assunted as generally Lrue that the farmer who bacons his hogs has a nuciih better marttin for pro fit than he Who sells Iis an I imtals in te shape of pork. Again, we have known mien to make it a business of purchias Ing pork in the fall for the purpose of converting It into bacon, and mtade money by the operation. Antd if these men could afford to Pay cash for the article and tien make it proflitable to convert it Into bacon, It does seem to us that a faimer is acting unwisely who would thtus surrender a part of his Jigitinate prollts by selling his hogs its pork. THE RAG WEED-ITS UsEs. -Some farmers do not relish this massive growth of weeds. If clover isaexcel lent as a manure plowed downa why not tihe rag weed? hiere a matss 01' vegetable matter Is turnued down and1( phosphate, pllaster or lime sitbverted with the weeds dlecomtpositionl takes place and plant food is created. PhOs phates act not alone ats a fertilzer but as a ictans of maiking thait wh iteh Is in the soit soliuble. Acids soon1 convert raw vegetable tmattetr into sustentane for plants. Plaster will have the sante effect as we ver'y well know. The many filds covered with raig weed and awaiting prepamratiotn for wvheait that we hnve noticed this fall, if treatedt with the design of utilIzing the abutn daint vegetable matter for the coming wheat crop, would certainily increase ihie yield to a very perceptIble extent. AGE OF 10GS,--To determine the exacet age of eggs, dissolve about four outnces of commnon salt in a quart of pure water, and tihen immerse tihe egg. If it be only a day or so old, it ill Sinik to the bottom of the vessel, but if thtree e.ays old it will float in the liquid; if more than flve, it comes to the surface and rises above ini proportion to its in creased age. FOOD FORl IIOos.--Three or four' bush els of corn meal, with a quart of salt, in a hlogshead of water, stlrred ocea sionally for three or tour dlays until It ferments, is mtuch better and far cheap or thani feeding either meai or corn to growing pIgs.

An excee(lingly great amoun t. of ingenuity, industry and trained skill has 1or agen bieen devoted to the labor of hunting down, Isolating and de scribing the offending atoms that have made and still make uninhabitable some of the fairest regions of the earth. All effort was vain, however, and no satis i'actory answer hais ever been made to the query, What precisely 1s the poi son that causes this disease? It has remained a mystery. Within a few years ingenious endeavors to solve this problem have multiplied. In the pre sent year some experiments have been made at Rome whic: appear to be more fruitful than any hitherto recorded ; or, in the words of the report read to the Academy of Rome, "Llhe Investigation was rewarded with coinpletoe sticcess." These experiments were conducted by Signor Tomnnasi of Rome, and Profes sor Klebs of Prague. They toget1er spent some weeks in the Agro Roma no, and made repeated examiniations of the lower strata of the atmospthere, of thbe soil anld of stagnant wvaters, and sue needed in isolating a microscopic funi gus, specimens ot which, being p~laced nnider the skill of healthy dogs, caused dIstinct and regular paroxysmns of' in termnittent fever, and proedhe in the spleens of these animals that pecuhlar' condition whiich is a recogntized part of the pathology of this disease. In the medical wvorld tis &chievemient ninust be regfarded as an iportant one. Tfo p~eople at large it may' not seem a great allair to have ascertai lned precIsely wv hat pairt of the elemenlts of a po0isonous1.soll It is to wihlhi its poIsonous nature is due; but it must nlot be too hastily judged that thIs knuowledge wvill not ini. volve an important advance iii the en pacity to deal -with this nloxious pro duct of' the ear'th.
