Saitherson. A milltary-looking gentleman got of the train at Vaidon, the other evening and stepping up to a party by the nam of Johnson, who was standing near by eagerly Inquired: xExeuse me, sir, but is your natni Suitherson ? "No, sir, my name Is Johnson." "Do you know of any tailthersonj hereabouts?" "Smitherson, SmItherson-oan't say that I ever heard the name before te) over with me to Bell's saloon, an( perhaps we'll find some one there wh< ean give itiformation." Over to Bell's they went. The bar. room was full, and the lquiry weni round: "Bill, do you know any Sinitherson Totn do you know one Smitherson?' and so on. Not a single acquaintanet of Swltherson's could be found. The stranger seemed very anxious to find Smithersoin ; and, as ie lefe tle saloon, a crowd followed limu, a rumor iavitig got alloat, (no doubt taking its rise IrTU the military air of the stranger,) Liat, a reyenue ollcer was in search of a Goverqnjent delaulter, or a crooked whisky man. Up the street the crowd w,euded itS way, and stopped in front of 1irsh's Hotel. By this time the en tire tiwn w: aroused. "Smiti.orson" was on every liII. Mothers clasped their babes to theIL breasts and rushed toward the hotel. 3in gazed ax iously a. each other, and contorted their lp into tile semblance ot o Old17-fa1sh1 loned wood-burn ing engine funiel, dis xlpated by at latc collision, in their en deavor to pronounce the word "Smith erson." Almost the entire town was now gathered about the stranger, and, as lie opened his llis, you could have heard a hog's bt ist le light on a bale of cotton. "Ffriend@," saildl he, "is there not. a single man, woman or clilid, in this asseinblage who is at quininted with one "Suitherson ?' A d ead silence followed. "No one know% a Smiterson, ehl! Then ny missiu Is at, ai end. It's ol no con-s(quence;, I merely asked out of curiosity. I was on'Ze looking over a New York city directory, when I came tAcross thle imi Smiithur-son. Seemaed to. me a st rurge nam41ne, aid I was cuil I uus enough to iAd out if any one by the name of 'Smitiersoii' existed in these parts. I am nlow inclined to think that there is not.'" When the ciowd ascertained that the stranger was merely a Blhiemian editor on a drunk, they droloped (heir bn iek b its aind allow(d bim to go inl pa11ce. lo Stuck to the 1lorio.

Carbolic soap is siuiply a soapi to whieh hais beena added ait the imaking, a small p)rop)orion141 of carbolic acid. This acid Is destrucive to all the low. or for'ms of In.seet lifec; iaid in fatr, of vcget'ble life atlso, such for istance, as the fung(. On accounit of this peCu-i liarit y :t has often been uisedl as a remned v againits thle var'ious inisects In festin orchard trees, and)1 the like, and also a at disinf(etant to deCstroy the germas ni disease. 1I, is apptllied in varIous wa~s but the best way of' giving It to tree. andu( young 1)1lats is lai a formi of a sIt made 0of cairbolie soap, perh'laps; in tisI form it is less liable to do iaujury3 to the growths thana In any oIlier. Unr'bollt soap Is someowhat expenalive, however, when we buy13 it r'ea-ty prepared, and thIs fact has, ini all probabIlity, held I back from coming Into mtore geneal use, But the crude acId of itself Is not Veryolpensive, and thecrefore whenf ont has ocCaRion to llse it on a somewhat r largo seale it would be best for him to buy the acid and prepare thle soap hilin self. [low to prepaie this soap. Ob taln crude carbollo acid-It will cost from 25 to 50 cents per gallon. Poe- a quantity of this cru(de acid Into a quan. tity of good strong soft soap; stir well together, and ailow to stand for a few hours, then test the compound by mix Ing a little of It with soft water. If to much acid has been added, oily par. tioles of carbolic acid will be observed floatng on the surface. 'Tis shows that more acid has been put in than thesoup will incorporate or "cut," and more soap should be added to balance the ex cess of acid. No more definite rule can be given. as so mnineh depends on the strength of tle soap. Two or three tablespoonfuls of the acId to a quart of soapi may be first tried, Soneperflerto make as strong with acid as the soap will perfectly out. A very little prac tice will enable 1.Y (fine to coTIIpotnld it correctly. Tihe refluedi acid mnay be uised when the craide Iw not. at hand. When prepiaredi as above, make a mod erately strong suds, and api)ly with syringe or sponge. Of course it wil be neceysarv to ie entittlon in prepar In1g the 41141., not to have it toO strong for the plants to which it i to be ap plIed. If the plaits are Young alit! ten(der a strong suf 18 would be apt to ruin them. The alpplication should be renewed after each heavy rain capable of wasing oir the suds. To carbolle soap that we buy at the stores Is hard, and In e:kes, but that makes it no bet ter-the soft, s pl) prelired according to the foregoling direct.ions Would be equally as good in every respect.

Next, turi up the left skirt so that the end ma; t ouch collar, do ihe same with the righ skirt. Give it a light brushing all cvir and then turn one-Lalf the coat exacti: even over the other half.

JENxit JUNE tells of a party of foui ladies who last year undertook a tri alone, visting several countries o Europe, and whose enjoyment was 8t great at a moderate expense that sever al other parties will go abroad thil year. It Is all right for ladies to go skylarking around alone, but some day they will see i monster snake nearly a foot long, or an awfulgrasshopper will settle on one of their npcks. and then their enjoyment will not be so great, and they will wish they had taken a man along'to kill such beasts. JoNRS had engaged a man to dig a well at lils suburban place. Seeing him a month later Jones asked how he was getting along with hIs work, and was told that the well was half done. Judge therefore of lils surprise when, a week after title conversation, upon visiting the premises, he found only a circle marked in tie earth. Of course he hunted up the man, and of course he asked him what he meant by saying the well was half done. The man very coolly replied: "So it Is; well begun is hal If done, yotl know." "Yas," said Mrs Goodington, sadly, "h1e was indulging in sequestering ex ercise. Ilis horse got frightened at something or othor, and reciprocated limta to the sidewalk. When they took him up they found a bad fractions in lils leg, and it had to be computed to save his life.'' And the old lady didn't suy another word for at least fifteen anlaiutes.

Little Is known yet of the process used In making d1auonds by Dr. H1anny, of Glasgow; but the Herald of that city sayB that the method involves the sim ultaneous application of enormous pres sure-probably many tont on the square Inch ofsurface-and a very high tem perature ranging up to a dull-red heat. It may be said that the process is the outcome of a thoroughly schitific Inves tigation into the subject of solution and not a "happy-go-lucky" hit. "We un derstood,' says the Herald, "hydrocar bon compounds have been used in the process, Put we have some hesitation in concluding that the crystalline carbon is of necessity obtained by the dissocia tion of these compounds, By and by, hdikever, that point will doubteas be satisfactorily established. So far as we can learn, Mr. H1anitay's experiments were not all successful, there being, It Is said far more failures than successes ; the la;ter, however, occurred near the end of the series, thus showing that the operater had become familiar with the condition under which the dissociation of the carbon wa, effected, and its sub sequent deposition in the crystalline form. It- would seem that up to the pre sent only very small orystalline parti cles have been obtained, and hence the process must be an exceedingly expen sive one to produce a real gem- some thing like spending, to speak roughly, ?5 or X0 to get five shillings." The use of petroleum as fuel Is incream ing. It is much cheaper than coal, and when some device for a petrolmum burner can be perfected, which must be within a short period, we look to see the consumption of petroleum sensibly ttffect the demand' for coal. -INTOXIOATINO lquors produce di. arrhaa or conrsipationl, ald a torpid condition of the liver,resulting in gen. eral debility ani Inertuess of mIntd.
