"Very well, said the nephew, in a t
di apkd o our store, and save $3 v
a week out of your salary. Learn in b
the mean$itne, all- you can of business.- t
At the end 6f four years you will have 1i
the capital you seek, and it will be d
doly:valttable becaupe ,you have u
earned It. Then coine and see me o
again. I. dare say you'd rather have 11
the, moMhy than the advice," as the
other, taned to go. "But hold 'on; n
you've time , to tuke.. tea before the V
train tarts, and I want you to see my t
litle housekeeper. Polly l' he balled, a
and a bright, rosy-oheeked girl' tripped I
in, while Edward's face -lushed pain
fully. "Polly," continued ler fatler, b
"this 'is your cousin Edward. Iie 11
leaves on the 0 train; make his short o
stay as pleisunt as pws ibu." 4
At her father's requust who was very t
proud of his daughter's. varied accom- t
p lishments-Mary sang and played for a
er cousin, and his visit ended in sing-. i1
ular contrast to the stormy way it b
commenced. Edward refused the five- v
dollar note tendered him by his uncle s
at-parting for his traveling expenses. 1
The old man smiled as he returned f
the note to his poqketbook. a
"He's a sensible young chap, after a
all," he remarked to his daughter, as t
the door closed after their guest. "It's c
In'him, if It only can be brought out.
We shall see, we shall see." -
"A good deal for fattier to say," was I
Mary's inward comme}tt, who thought 1
her cousin the most agreeeble young E
man she had ever mob. C
Three years later Mr. Stone and his I
daughter paused in front of a small
but neat and pleasant-looking shop, on
the plate-glass door of which were
these words: "Howard Stone, Sta
tionery and Book Store."
It being too early in the day for cus- I
tomers they found the proprietor alone,
whose face flushed with pride an.i
pleasure as he greeted them.
"I got your card nephew," said the
old man with a cordial grasp of the
hand, "and called round to see how
you were getting on. I thought it was
about time I gave you the little lift you
asked of me three years ago. You
- don't look much as if you needed it,
though."
"ijut at present, thank you, uncle,"
was the- cheerful response. "Curiously
enough, it is the same business that I
wanted to buy then. The man who
took it had to borrow money to pur.
chase it with, getting so much involved
that he had to sell at a sacrifice."
"Just what you wanted tp do."
Edward smiled at the point made by
his uncle.
"It isn't what I've done though.
I've saved $4 a week from my salary for
the last three years, and so was not
only able to pay 'the money down, but
had $50 beside."
"Bravol my boy," cried the delighted
old man, with another grasp of the
hand that made the hero wince. "[.'n
proud of youl You're bound to succeed,
I see, and without anybody's help. I
told your cousin Polly that when she
was eitteen i'd buy a house in the
city; that she should furnish it* to suit
herself, and have all the servants she
wanted; and i've kept my word.
Comne around and see us whenever you
can. You'll always find the latch
string out."
Edw~ard did not fail to accept the in
vitation so frankly extended-a very
pleasant Intimacy growing up between
the' thiree during thie twelve montl.s
that followed.
On Jbrlstmas Eve the old man en
tered lhe room where hits daughter and'
Edward were sitting, and said:
"I muen't delay any longer tI-e little
lift I promised you nephew, and which
you have well carned."
Edward glan 'd from the five-thou
sand dollar chezk to the lovely face at
lisa side, and then to that of the
spt-aker.
"You are very kind, uncle--far kin
der thtan I deserve,- but I-"
"Buta what lad? Speak out! Would
you p,refer it ih some other form?"
Ed ward's. fingeors closed tenderly and
strongly over the hand that he had
taken In his.
"Yes, uncle-mi this."
The old man looked keenly from one
to' the other.
"You are asking a good deal, nephew.
Polly, have you been encouraging this
young man in his prdsumption?"
"I'm afraid I have, fathier," was
the smiling response.
T.lhe father's eyes moistened.
"Then go, my daughter. I give you
to worthy keepIng; and if you make
your husband's heart as happy as your
mother made ne during the few
abort years that she tarried by my side,
he wvill be blessed Indeed."
Some Enormous Salerles.
Some interesting figures in regard to
Ealaries have been elicited in a suit
in Brooklyn agaInst a baking-powder
company. It was shown that the
- President of the company draws a sal
ary of ?50,000 a year, the Vice P'resl
dent $30,000, and the Treasurer 50000.
The President of a paint and varnish
company, who wvas introduced as an
expert in regard to salerles, stated that
the Superinitendent of his company
receiveol $50,000 a year, while the
yearly business did not exceed $3,000,
t00. Another witness stated that'Iin
companies wIth which lhe was acquain
ted the chief offlcere received from
55000 to $?.0,000 a year, wh)1e a repre
sentative of a kerosene-oil company
f aid that lie A,mw one olicer of a large
corporation who rec&'ed a salary of
$30,000 a year, and two others who
isceive $20,000 eacoa. Those flgures
are enormous, and were unknown until
the days of trusts and combinations.
The explanation is furnished in the
testimony of one of the witnesses, who
said that the business' of the company
-with whlich ho in connected had boon
increased until the tprofits had reached
450 per cent. on t.he orIginal capital
stock,

To KEEP A ISOUQUET OF FLOWERS
niEsu.-A queer way to ke^p a
ouquet of flowers fresh, but a very
triking and effective one is thus des
ribed: In a vessel- of water place a
late, and on this stand a bouquet of
lowers, weighted to the bottom so as
o stand upright. This being done, the
)ouquet is covered with a bell glass,the
im of which ought to lit- exactly the
lat part of the plate; the bell glass
hould be entirely filled with water and
+vithout the least air bubble. Then
'also all together, bell glass plate and
)ouquet and place on a table, leaving
mn plate aroucd the base of the bell
glass a little water to keep the air from
mntering. The flowers in thissituation
Aill be preserved in all their freshness
for several weeks, and their beauty is
noreasod by a great number of bubbles
)f gas produced by the respiration ot
the leaves, and which attach themselves
to the leaves, looking like pearls. The
idge of the plate and the water that it
,ontains should be concealed by a light
bed of moss in which are set some
lowers. A bouquet thus arranged
produces a charming effect, especially
n the evening.
ALL hardy, strong-growing grasses,
ike orchard grass and timothy, may be
own in early spring or autumn. It is
important that it be sown on a fine
nellow seed bed, in the fall, and the
seed must be covered with a light
tarrow or pressed into the soil by a
roller. If sown thus in the fall early
here will. be a good crop of hay the
iext year. It is better to sow clover
eed early in the spring, so that the
~oung plants may grow one season be
~ore exposure to the severe frost of
vinter.
~A WRrTER in the OAio Farmer, who
keeps sixteen cows anid inflis them all
imsnelf (he says he is one 'of those fel
ows who thinks the wife and daughters
iave no place in the cow barn,) reports
mn average prollt for each of these cows
,f $5,21 d uring last year. His cows
are of no special breed, and most of
hem were raised by himself. This
rarmer is very sqre that the profit he
rnakes can be made by others, provided
they will work more and complain
AS plant Ilce invade or injure a very
[arge class of plats, not only among
Ernits but shrubs and flowers, care
ilhould be taken to guard against them
us thoroughly as possible. Here is a
rood remedy: Six eggs beaten thor
)ughly, put in a common water pail,
md add one and a half pints of coal
>Al; stir together and then fill up with
wvater. Care should be taken to keep
well stirred while applying. This can
e used on rose hushes or cabbage, if
lesirod. Use whenever and wher
aver needed to destroy this pest.
Sucn perennial herbs as sage, fennel,
balm, mint, hoarhound, lavender, rue,
~hymie, savory and tansy are easily
crown, and should be found In every
garden, as once obtained they require
out, little labor and care.
IIYflnli perpetual roses are hardy,
and will make the front yard very at.
~raotive. They should be put in soIl
very fertile, and in dry weather the
3arth should be kept loose on the sur
ace, which serves as a mulch. Keep
hie bushes in neat shape by trimming,
mnd watch daily for the rosobugs and
ilugs.
SHEEP not in the best condition for
areading should be got rid of without
lelay. Dist:eiper, foot rot and other
lifficulties In a flock cause too much
abor. Only the healthy ewes should
ao retained. All others, unless nearly
well, should be destroyed..
THE cheapest mode of keeping rats
mut of a barn is to use half-inch wire
letting, placing it from two to three
eet deep in the ground all around the
~dges of the barn or stable, digging a
arrow trench for the purpose, and
,en refilling in the dirt.
AT,L the farm implements should be
~aken apart and well cleaned, flub
korosene on the iron portions as a pro
boction against damnpuesa and rust.
Knives should be abarpened, and all
imchm work performed; while other farm
work is not urgent..
.LAnGE breeds of sheep require good
pastuirage. They will pay only when
the condit.ions are favorable. UJneven
pastures, coarse grass and "picking"
w~ill 'iot do for them. They must be
mupplied with all they may require.
ONi light soils where it ig difiloult to
rrow wheat or oats cloverseed should
be sown in the fall, just after the warm
lays shall be over and the rains begin
'ing. By so doing a good "catch"
an be secured, which will .avoid the
1ecessIty of sowing in the spring with
i grain crop to shade the young plants.

Don't Kill the Old Hens.
When hens are shedding feathers they of
ten stop laying and grow fat. Most people
consider fat a sign of health. The fatten
ing of moulting hens, 'however, as with
some people, produces debility rather than
health. Many of the worst cases of roup
are. contracted,while the hens are moulting.
The food of moulting hens, if largely
vegetable is fat-forming and not required
for growing feathers. TFhereforo corn-fed
hens get very fat. They need more nitro
gen and phosphate elements in their 'food
when moulting, which if not supplied they
stop laying, because the growing feathers
have used all, and left no nitrogenous mat
ter to form eggs. At this season, killing
'old hens and relying on young pullets is a
great mistake, where people have a few
hens and late pullets. Because, if properly
fed, the hens will have their new plumage
and lay well all winter; while the pullets
unless specially treated may not commence
laying until spring, when high prices for
eggs have fallen one-half. Again an old
hen's egg will hatch a more vigorous ohick
en than a pullet's egg.
John R. Jones, Suuloid', Coun., a breeder
of prize winning mottled Javas, says:
"I find Sheridan's Condition Powder, fed once
daily In the food, very valuable for moulting hens.
I have used it two years for exh,ibition-birds. It
assists In growing new fe ithere,makea the ombs
a bright red anu give., a rich gloss to the plum.-,
age. It wil also make hens ay and the eggs
hiatch well. 1 find when the ether eggfoods are
Used In quantities to force egg production the
eggus do not hatch."
Tho above is the experience of many people in
usIina Sheridan's Powder. If fed _o young pu;1o:s
now as dlreoted, they will i egin to lay berore six
