Here is a would-be suicide arrested in his
deadly attempt He was a sheriff, and ac
cording to the Roman law, a bailiff himself
must suffer the punishment due an escaped
prisoner; and if the prisoner breaking jail
was sentenced to be endumreoned for three
or four years, then the sheriff must be
endungconed for three or four years; and if
the pri oner breaking jail was to have
suffered capital punishment, then the sheriff
must suffer capital punishment. The sheriff
bad received ispecinl charge to keep a sharp
lookiut for laul and Hilas. The govern
ment bad not bad confidence in bolts and
bars to keep safe these two clergymen, atwut
whom there seemed to be something slnui-e
and supernatural.
t-ure enough, by miraculous power, they
are free, and the sheriff, waking out of a
sound sleep, and supposing these ministers
have run away, and Knowing that they were
to die for preaching Christ, and realizing
that be must therefore die, rather than go
under the ex-cut oner’s axe on the morrow,
and suffer public disgrace, resolves to pre
cipitate his own decoass. But before the
sharp, keen, glittering dagger of the sheriff
could strike his heart, one of the unloosened
p-isonei s arrests the blade by the command'
•‘Vo thyself no harm.”
, In olden time, and where Christianity had
pot interfered.*Uh it, suicide wag condderad
honorable and a sign of courage. Demos
thenes poisoned himself when told that Alex
ander's ambassador had demanded the sur
render of the Athenian orators. Isocrates
killed himself rather than surrender to
I hilip of Wa odon. Cato, rather tlian sub
mit to Julius Censar, took his own life
and after three tiuias his wounds had
been dressed tore them open and per
ished. Mithridates killed himself rather
than submit to Pomney, the con ineror. Han
nibal destroyed his life by poison from his
ring, considering life unbearable. Lycurgus
a suicide, Brutus a suicide After the disas
ter of Moscow, Napoleon always carried w,th
him a preparation of < pium, ami one night
bis servant bearil the ex Emperor arise, put
something in aglass and drink it, and s ion
after the groans aroused all the attendants,
end it was only through utmost medical
skill ho was resusd ated from the stupor of
tlie opiate.
Times have changed, and yet the American
conscience nee Is to be toned up on the sub
ject of suicide. Have you seen a paper in the
last month that did not announce the passage
out of life by one’s own liehest? Def an Iters,
alarmed at the idea of exposure, quit life
precipitately. Men lasing large fortunes go
out of the world le-cause they cannot endure
earthly existence. Frustrated affectim,
domestic infelicity, domestic impatience,
anger, remorse, envy, jealousy, destitution,
misanthropy, are considered sufficient causes
for absconding from this life by Paris green,
by laudanum, by belladonna, by Oth-llos
dagger, by baiter, by 1-ap from the abuts
ment of a bridge, by fir arms. More cases
of feio de so in the last two years than any
t wo years of the worn's existence, and more
in the last month than in any twelve months.
Jbcevil is more and more spreading.
A pulpit not long ogoexpn sse i soma doubt
as lo whether there was really anything
wrong about quitting this life when it became
disagreeable, and tliere are found in respect-
ahle circles peop’e ajiologetic for the crime
which Paul in the text arrested. I shall
show you before I get through that su-cide
is the worst of all crimes, and J shall lift a
w arning unmistakable. But in the early part
of t h;» fermon l wish to admit that some
of the liest Christians that have ever lived
have (ommitUd self-destuetion, but always
in dementia, and not responsible. I have no
more doubt about their eternal felicity than
1 have of tha Christian who dies in bis bed
in the delirium of typhoid fever. While
the shock of the Catastrophe is very great.
I charge all those who have had Ihrist-
friends under corehal abt rrat on step
off (he boundaries of this life, to have no
doubt about their happiness. The dear I.ord
took them right out of their dazed and fren-
lied state into perfoct gaiety. How Christ
feels toward the insane you may know from
• he kind way He treated the demoniac of Ua-
darn and the child lunatic, and the potency
with v, hich he hushed tempests either of soa
or hrain.

While we make this merciful and righteous
allowance in regard to those who were
plunged into mental incoherence, l declare
that that man who, in the nso of his reason,
by bis own act, snaps the bond between his
body and bis soul, go. s straight into perdi
tion. Shall I prove it! Revelation xxl, 8:
“Murderers shall h ive their part in the lake
which burnetii with tire and brimstone. ’
Revelation xxil, 15: “Without are
dogs, and sorcerers, and whore
mongers, and murderers." You do not
believe the New Testament! Then, perhaps,
you bel eve the Ten Commandmeuts; “Thou
shalt not kill’’ Do you say all these passages
refer to the taking of the life of others' Then
1 ask you if you are not as responsible for
your own life as for the life of othersl God
gave you a special trust in your life. He
made yon the custodian of your life as He
made you the custodian of no other life.
He gave you as weapons with which
to defend it two arras to strike
hack assailants, two eyee to wat h
for invasion, and a natural love of life which
ought ever to be on the alert. Assassination
of others is a mdd crime compared with the
•e®*a-sination of yourself, because in the lat
ter case it is treachery to an especial trust, it
|s tho surrender of a castle you wore espe
cially appointed to keep, it is treason to a
natural law, and it Is treason to God added
to ordinary murder.
To show how God in the Bible looked upon
this crime, I point you to the rogue’s picture

Notwithstinding the Bible is against this
evil, and the aversion which it creates by the
loathsome and gbastlv spectacle of those
who have burled themselves out of life, and
notwithstanding Christianity is against it,
and the arguments and the useful lives and
the illustrious deaths of its disciples, it is a
fact alarmingly patent that suicide is on the
increase.
M hat is the cause? I charge upon -Infl-
oeliiy and Agnosticism this whole thing. If
there lie no hereafter, or if that herea'ter be
bi-slul without reference to how we live
and how we die, why not move back the
folding doors between this world and the next?
And when our existence here becomes troub-
ic*° m *, why not pass right over into Elysium!
Put this down among your most solemn re
flections, and consider it aft r you go to your
homes; there has never l eer, a i a*, of suicide
where the operator w,r. not either demented,
and therefore irresponsib'e, or an infiuel. 1
challenge all the ages and I challenge the
universe. There ne.er lies Imen a <a<eof
self-destruct.on while in full appreciation of
his immorta lly and of the fact that that im-
mortality would lie glorious or wretched ac
cording as he accepted Jesus Christ or reject
ed Him.
You say it is a bus ness trouble, or you say
it is electrical currents, or it is this, or it
is that, or it is the other thing. Why not
go clear back, ray friend, and acknowledge
tiiat in every case it is the abdica
tion of reason or tho teic'hing of infi
delity which practically says: “.f you don't
like this life get out of it, an 1 you will
land ei her in anmhhation, where there are
no notes to pay. no pers options to suffer, no
gout to torment, or you will land where
tlnre wilib' everything glorious and noth
ing to pay for Is." Infidelity always hsM
Ix-eii apologetic for self-immolation. ' After
Tom Paine's “Age of Reason’ 1 wav published
and widely rea 1 there Was a marked increase
of self-slaughter.
A man in ton don heard Mr. Owen deli vet
his infidel lecture on Socialism, and went
home, sat down, and wrote these words:
Jesus Christ is one of the weakest characters
in history, and the Bible is the greatest pos
sible deception,” and then shot himself.
David Hume wrote these words; “It would
be no crime for me to divert the Nile or the
Danube from its natural bed. Where then
can be the crime in my diverting a few drop;
of blood from their ordinary channel?" And
having writteil I he bssay he loaned it to a
friend, the friend' read it, wrote a li tter of
thanks ami admiration, and shot himself.
Appendix to the same book.
Rousseau, Voltaire, Gibbon, Mcntaigne,
under certain circumstances, were apologetic
for self-immolatidn. Infidelity puts up no
bar td peop’e’s rushingblit from this world
into the next. They teach us it does ruvt
make any difference how yon live here or go
out of this world, you will land either ui
an oblivious nowhere or a glorious some
where. And infidelity holds the upper end of
the rope for the suicide, and aims the pistol
with which n man blows his brains out,
and mixes the ftryebnino for the last
swallow. If infidelity could carry the day
and persuade the majority of people in this
country that it does not make any difference
how you go out of the world you will land
eifely. the Hudson and the East river would
be so full of corpses the ferryboats would lie
impeded in their progress, and tin crack ofa
suicide'*pistol wou’d bo no more alarming
than ttie rumble of a street rAr.
I have sometimes heard it discussed
whether the great dramatist was a Christean
or not. 1 do not know, but I knot* that he
considered appro -intion of a future existence
the mightiest hindrance to self-destruction:
"For who could bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrnns, the prou I mar's contumely.
The pang* of desp »'d love, the - dolsy,
The insolence of nfflee, and the spurna
Test patient merit of the unworthy lakes,
When he himself inli;ht Ivs quietu. make
With a bare bodk n? Who would fardels boar,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
Hut that the dread of something after desth—
The undiscovered country, from whose bourne
No traveler returns—puzzles the will?"
Would God that the coroners would he
brave in rendering the right verdict, and
when in a case of irresponsibility they say:
“While this roan was demented he took his
life;” in the other case say: “Having read
infidel liooks and attended infidel lectures,
which obliterated from this man’s mind all
appreciation of anything like future retri
bution, he committed self slaughter! ’
Ah! Infidelity, stand up and take thy sen
tence! In tho presence of God and angel;
and men, stand up, thou monster, thy lip
blasted with blasphemy, thy cheek scarred
with lust, thy breath foul with the
corruption of the ages' Stand up

My friends, if ever your life through its
abrasions and it* molestations, should seem
to be unbearable, an 1 you are tempted to
qu.t it by your own behest, do not consider
yourself as worse than otli ts. Christ him
self was tempted to cast Himself from the
roof of the Temple, but as He resisted,
so resist ye. Christ came to medicine
all our wounds. In your trouble I f rescribe
life instead of death. People who have had
it w orse than you will ever have it have gone
songful on the way. Remember that. Goff
keeps the chronology of your life with as
much precision as lie keeps tho chronology
of nations, your death a; well a; your cradie.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
More Apples.
M ere every family to put in practice
tbe following sensible advice of Profess
or 1 araday, a marked gain in the health
of its members would be the result: Let
every family in autumn lay in from two
to ten or more barrel*, and it will be to
fbem the fnost economical investment
in the who e range of culinary supplies.
A raw, mellow apple is digested in an
hour and a half, while boiled cabbage
requires five hours. The most healthful
deseit that can be placed on the table is
baked apple. If taken freely at break
fast, with coarse bread, and without
meat or flesh of any kind, it has an ad
mirable effect on the general system, often
removing constipation, correcting acidi-
t e<, ana tool ng oil febrile conditions
more effectually than the most approved
medicines. If familiea could be induced
to substitute the spple—sound, ripe and
luscious-for the pies,cake*, candies and
olher sweetmeat*, with which children
are too often stuffed, there would be a
ilimiir tion of doctor's bi ls sufficient in
a single year to lay up a stock of this do-
licious fruit fora season’s use.

Home Dressmaking.
It is now very easy for girls to make
their own dresses, for that which pre
sents the largest difficulties is all done
for them by a new system; a measure is
taken, applied to a lining, and an accu
rate waist pattern obtained while a lady
i; waiting, the whole operation requir
ing less time than it sotneti t.e; takes
to gw. chanae. Foundation skirts are
al o m tdc which only need the p eating
upon the edge, aud tjic material draped
over them; in every other respect they
are shaped and i.ni-hed for w ear, includ
ing the insertion of ste. Is and a small
“matt; css.”
'J he skuts of this season’s dresses are
very simple, and not intricate in the
way of draperies. The foundation skirt
is from two and one-quarter to two and
one half yards wide, and it always has a
pleating at the edge. But this is not
much seen, as the upper drapery is so
long that it nearly covers it, the use
of it being mainly to keep the plain
drapery irom setting in too flatly
over the feet The newest way of
making the back drapery i; to sew it
into the back, with large plaits, which
hang down in fold;, the drapery falling
straight to the edge of the skirt. The
only variation to this arrangement is that
the back breadth is lifted up and caught
here and there with a stitch, to add
slightly to its fullne-s. The foundation
sk rt consists of a gored front breadth, a
gored breadth on each side, and a straight
w dth at ’he back ungored. A small
mattress about seven inches square is
worn, and one or two steels. These last
are no longer put in in a straight line,
but form au aich upwards; the top steel
coming about six incite; below the waist
in the center, aud about twelve inches at
each end. This is a much more com
fortable way of pulling in the steels
than the old One.—U»u ewii'e.

PAB1 AND GARDEN.
Dens Eating Kggs.
to tnswef to a question, remarks the
Prairie Farmer, we can simply reiterate
what ire have stated many times hereto-
fl>W. A hen that become* addicted to
U&iftg eegs cannot easily be broken. If
she ts not killed as soon as she is found
eating eggs, she will soon teach Others
to do the same. The taste is acquired
generally by finding broken eggs in the
nest, or elsewhere. Then the fowl begins
to break the shells to get at the meat.
Thin-shelled eggs are easily broken.
The remedy for thin-shelled eggs is to
keep the fowls supplied with plenty of
lime in some form. Ground oyster-shells
are excellent for thia.
Iteclpes.
PrE Crust.—One teacup each of lard
and cold water, one teaspoonful of
baking powder, pinch of salt, flour
enough to roll out.
Salad DnEsstNo.—Two tablespoon
fuls each melted butter, mixed mustard
and salt, one teaspoon of white pepper;
beat to a cream; add eight eggs beaten
tight, half cup of vinegar and half cup
of sweet cream.
C’kkam Pie. — Beat the white of an
egg stiff, mix smoothly one tablespoon-
fuTof sugar, one of flour, one-half of a
tea-poouful of lemon uicC^oue-half pint
of sweet cream; add to the egg and bake
with open crust.
Hot Slaw. —Cut one-half of a head
of cabbage up fine, season with salt and
pepper; take one cup of m lk. two egg;,
a tablespoonful of melted butter and one
cup of vinegar, boil and pour over the
cabbage; serve hot.
Potato Cake*.—Two pounds of
mashed potatoes, four ounce; of butter
and a little salt, two pounds of Hoar,
and m Ik enough to make * Ratter; one
half cup of yeast; set to rise and when
light bake in cake; the si/e of muffins.
Mint Sauce.—Remove the leaves
from the stalks of a whole bunch oi
mint. Cut in fine bits ai d place in the
sauce bowl. Bruise with three tea
spoonfuls of sugar. Pour the whole
half a pint of vinegar. UV'ch if very
strong should be diluted.
Lost Half His Body.
“In surgical circles in Vienna,” says a
London paper, “a auccessful ope ation
performed by Profe sor Bilrolh at the
Vienna Klinik is much commented on.
While a carrier was driving bis team last
wittier his legs, fingers, ears and nose
were frozen. At the time his life was
d ,Saired of. Both his legs had to b«
<£. off, and only one finger on each hand
could be saved. Hi* nose was replaced
by an artificial one, and hit ears were
clipped. He bore h s sufferings with re
markable <omposure. and, having been
supplied with artificial legs and feet, he
now gets about with the help of two
simple sticks. H is surprising that with
one linger he is able to write very well*
Winter Dairying.
The chief advantages of winter over
summer dairying, says a writer in the
Cou trj Gentleman, consist in having
the greater part of the season’s make of
butter to sell when the price is highest;
in having less trouble to make and mar
ket a good article in cool weather; in
making the milking season considerably
longer, and the quantity for the season
considerably greater; and in being able
to raise better calves, because they will
be so much older and larger than spring
calves to eat gi ass in the summer, ami
endure the rigors of the ensuing winter.
The disadvantage is in having to feed
more meal and bran to make good win
ter butter and to keep up a full How of
milk till grass comes, when the meal can
be taken away without the yield-falliug
off, though if it be continued the flow
will incrca;e. Feeding liberally with
meal aud bran makes winter butter cost
more than grass butter, but the higher
prices of the winter market more than
pay the additiondl expense for feed.
Tlie Question of Sheep Washing.
English authorities are divided as to
the advantages of *hecpjwashing. Most
of the wool received there from France,
La Plata and South Australia comes un
washed, and packed in its natural grease.
In the latter countries the wool is of
more importance than the meat, and it
may be reasonably assumed that grow
ers know and follow the bcNt plan of
dealing with the fleeces. Where sheep
are kept on grass lands there is no pre-s-
ing necessity for washing, but where
they are fed on tillage lands, say the
English farmers, it is almost absolute.y
essential to remove the soil and dirt. The
washing of sheep always carries away
from the skin of the animal a natural
oily soap called suint, which is very
soluble in water, with the result that the
wool heroines harsh and dry and re
duced in value for many manufacturing
purposes. I n washed wool should be a
double advantage to the grower, ns it
ought to fetch a larger price, and the
cost of washing would be saved. In
cares where sheep must be washed, it is
advbab'e to perfoim the operation in n
pond or tub, rather than in a running
stream, as the suint does not flow away,
but is taken up or at least a portion of
it-by the fleece of the animal as it
emerges from the water.—American Cul
tivator.
Horse Staples.
To have healthy and hearty horses
iue care must be taken to provide them
with suitable stables. These should be
warm, dry and well ventilated. If the
roof is of straw let it be thatched so that
it does not leak. No farmer can tiilor<l
to have water leaking down upon his
horses. Have first a roof that does not
leak, next see that the sides of the stable
are free from crack*, so that there will
be no drafts upon the horses. Have the
ventilators so that they are under your
control. After you have a good roof
and tight sides, properly ventilated and
lighted, it is proper to consider the floor
of the stable. You can get no better one
than earth. This will keep the feet of
the horses in good condition, and needs
only to be kept level by tilling in the
holes made by the stamping of the feet
of the hones. If you have an earth floor
be sure and keep it free from a ridge over
which the horse must hang when it lies
down. The next best floor is one made
of short blocks of wood, such as are used
in paving city streets. If the stable is
not on the ground level, of course a floor
will needs be made of plank. Of what
ever the stable floor is made have a drain.
This will facilitate keeping the horses
clean and the stable clean and healthy.
Have the stalls wide enough to allow the
horses to lie down comfortably. It is
well enough to have the partitions lugh
enough to prevent the horses reaching
each other. Be sure io have no pro.jec
tions in the stab es, upon which the
horses can hurt themselves in lying down,
turning around, or raising their heads.
This will necessitate having the ceiling
high enough lo clear their heads when
jerked up nuddenly. Have the feed boxes
and racks just high enough to allow the
head to be in a natural pos tion while
eating. Have both these so arranged
that there will be no waste of giaiu or
hay. To save time in fee ling bavegiain
bin and hay handy to stable. When the
stable i; made comfortable, convenient
and healthy, see that the surroundings
are made the same. Don’t have a great
pile of manure just iu front ol the door
Have a small draiu to carry the water
from the stable, so that it may be ap
proached handily, and be at the same
time more healthful, because free from
stagnant water. Now is the best time ol
the year to put your stable in good shape.

la one respect rye Is a cheap crop
because it requires bo land for its growth,
to a certain eitent. 1 hat is, if tne seed
is sown in the fall on land intended fo
corn in the *pr ng, and tbe tyo turned
in before planting corn, tbcr.e simply
bolds the laud that would otherwise l».-
unoccup ed during the winter. It i*
also excellent on laud intended for pota
toes, aud as it a-siats in keeping down
weed; it tave; much labor in that re
spect.
As rye can be pa tured at nearly all
stages ol growth and can I e turned un-
dir a; a green uianur al agent at an\
t mo, the fainter who fails to ow it will
depr.ve himrelf and his stock of a mon
rateable plant, and as it can be seeded
low n at any time at this season the land
or that purpove should l>e prepared with-
tut delay. Of course it thrives Lest ou
ich land, but even the poorest soil
ihotdd be sowed to rye rather than to
eave it unoccupied.—Xew York Herald.

It is within ths memory of many that
he large breed of swine, notably the
Poland C hinas and t hester N\ bites, got
heir “send-off” to quite adegree through
loaseasing large size. The same was true
if tho beef breeds of cattle, notably
ihort horns. We rcracralier well when
it was counted a serious detect in a short
lorn beast not to be.large—extra large—
iymmetry n;t being considered of first
m|)ortancc, as now As to swine, tho
indents bred for size, and history teds
is that great weights and extraordinary
.hickness of meat were bred for and st
ained.
Prior to the great depreciation that oc-
jurred to live-atock-groV ing and general
Agriculture during the middle ages- say
ap to the sixteenth century—great
weights were attained to. \ arro tolls of
a cut of swine meat that was sent by a
ffcasnnt to Volumnius, a Senator, that
neasured a “foot and three lingers in
thickness.” Another Homan historian
nentions a Lusitanian hog, whose meat,
when cut up, measured one foot and
three inches iu thickness.
We have accounts of great weights,
Approaching the period when the im
provements in farm stock took place. A
tpecimen of the old Berkshire breed is
ttated to have attained the weight of
1280 pounds. In 1774 a hog was killed,
saving a reported weight of 1100 pounds,
with a length of close to ten feet, and a
ueight of four feet and five inches. The
writer, when a boy, was in Cincinnati,
)hio, at the time of the exhibition of a
ipotted hog, brought to the city from
Butler County, Ohio, whose weight was
aid to be lff25 pounds. A small flat-
aoat was built, on which this hog wae
loated down the river to New Orleans,
aeiog exhibited on the way. Thia was
ibout 183'). This hog was doubtless #f
:he Folaud-China sort.
Hize, other things being equal, was,
aot many years since, to quite a degree
:he thing that governed the price in our
ending markets. But it is different now
—at any rate, it is to quite a degree.
Yet, should the exactions of the market
hange, calling again for very large
Itogs, swine are so readily molded, and
jrecd so rapidly, that the caprices of th*
markets can be met to an extent not at-
:aiuat le by any other class of live stock.
As is well known to breeders, there are,
n pretty much every litter, pigs that
ire shaped for a greater growth thau
nhers in the same litter, aud nothing is
more certain than that by selecting
these, breeding of like kind, not akin,
upon them, large size would be promptly
tecured.—iVairta Farmer.
Plant More Rye.
Bye is a crop that can be made
render more service to the fanner and
dairyman than any other, yet it is more
frequently overlooked and discarded
than it should be. It is a plant that not
only endures the cold of winter and the
heat of summer, but it will grow on the
richest soil or> the poorest sandy land.
In some sections it is really the clover of
sandy soils, for without its aid and the
advantages of green manuring would lie
unavailable, and as it can be made to im
part more to tbe soil than it takes from
it there is no risk in growing it undei
any conditions. Even the seed is cheap,
while the cultivation necessary is very
little as compared with oth r crops A-
a profitable grain crop it is behind out;,
wheat, barley and corn, but the straw i-
raore valuable than that of any other
crop, for which it is sometimes grown
alone.
I eaving out the value as a grain crop
entirely it still ranks high in more ways
than one. The fact that it can he rold
in the fall aud made to produce a late
supply of green food after other grasses
cease growing should prompt farmers
to devote a space to rye every season, but
its usefulness extends further. The *e
vere coldof the nardestwinters will not in
jure it,and early in the spring, long before
gi ass begins to grow, rye appears iu its
green condition to afford a supply of suc
culent herbage to the stock at a time
when it is most needed. It allows the
stock the privilege of eating off the
early growth, and when the gia*s ap
pear*, and the gras; is no longer re
quired, it will grow cut again and make
a crop of grain. It can then, in early
spring, if preferred by the farmer, be
ploughed under instead of being allowed
to seed, and it will provide an excellent
manure for the corn crop.
Effect of Snake Charming on a Dog.
Giles Melton, a farmer, was out hunt
ing in the woods near Kastman, Ga., a
few weeks ago. His dog ian tome dis
tance ahead, and when Mr. Melton
found h m, ten minutes later, he had
been chaimed by a rattlesnake. The
dog was crouching down on the ground
and whining piteously and slowly creep
ing forward Looking further ahead he
saw an immense rattlesnake coiled as if
ready to i-trike, and its glittering eyes
fixed on the dog, which was trembling
in every limb and seemed powerless to
do anyth ng except creep slowly nearer
and nearer to the deadly reptile. Every
few momi nts the dog would whine pite
ously, and then, impelled by an irresiKti-
ble impulse, would creep a few inches
nearer its deadly charmer.
When the snake hud been kill: d the
dog fell down foaming at the mouth and
for half an hour was apparently lifeless.
It recovered lin illy and accompanied Mr.
Melton home, but all day it continued
to act strangely, and would not touch
food or water. The follow ing morning
Mr. Melton found the dog in the back
jard foaming at th‘ mouth and snap
ping at everything in reach. He was
soon satisfied that the dog had hydro-
pbob : a, and lost no time iu killing it.
He is satisfied that the efftets of snake-
charming caused the dog to go mad.—
