JACOB GRATES' SUNSTROKE The supper dishes had been removed Mid carefully washed in the kitchen •ink, and restored to their respective pSaces on the pantry shelves; the red eloth had been spietd ever the table, the large kerosene lamp set in the center, •nd Farmer Graves had drawn from his capacious pocket a weekly agricultural journal, and seated himself to enjoy its oonteuts. He was a thin, spare man, with sharp blue eyes, bushy gray eye- trows, a long nose, and a firm, square chin. By means of good judgment, the strictest economy and hard labor he had managed to amass considerable wealth, and was consequently looked upon with - neat respect by his neighbors, who knew little of the iron rule which gov­ erned his home, and made unhappy the Eves of his wife and two young sons. The big kitchen was very still. Hie licking of the eight-day clock in the 0©rner, and the buzz of a few flies which bad managed to effect an entrance in Site of screens, and to live, in defiance the pan of fly-poison placed conspicu­ ously and invitingly on a window sill, •lone disturbed the silence. The day had been very warm, and Mrs. Graves, worn out with its cares, had seated her­ self in a rocking-chair and was, for a few minutes, resting both tired hands and exhausted body, while Fred and Harry, early taught the value of time, were silently mending a harness which lay between them on the big wooden •ettee. Occasionally they glanced at their father, and then at each other, as if debating the propriety of some pro- wet to be submitted to him; and at'last Fred pushed the harness from his lap, and made a movement as if to rise. But Harry laid a detaining hand on Ids arm. "It's no use to ask," he whispered. "Perhaps not," answered Fred in the same tone, " but it can't do any harm. He can only say 'no,' and '"nothing 'venture, nothing have' is a saying I be­ lieve in." "All right; go ahead," said Harry. "I'll back you up the best way I can. Thus admonished, Fred cleared his throat nervously and approached his father. "Father," he said, "to-morrow'll be Fourth of July, you know. There's go- jap fc> be a procession of Horribles in town in the morning and speeches in the afternoon." '"Well," said the farmer, without glancing up from his paper, "what of at? I can't say as I'm interested in sech torn-foolery doin's." "' We've never been to anything of the kind, you know," continued Fred, hesitatingly, "and all the other boys •bout here are going. So we thought--" " That I was fool enough to let you waste a hull day," interrupted the farm­ er, grimly. " Well, you thought wrong. I ain't no sort of a believer in this yere Fourth of July nonsense. A pa'cel o' men an' boys paradin' up an' down the streets dressed up like monkeys. Thev'd i oughter be ashamed o' themselves. £fy fattier learned me better'n that how to use my timet No; ye'll spend to-mor­ row in gettin'in that hay. I've got to go to Morristown to see Talman Txrat them hides, but you two kin get in the kay an' then--" He was interrupted by a knock at the screen door. Mrs. Graves hastened wearily to open it. Two men, rough- looking fellows enough, stood outside. " We want to stop the night," said one of them. "We're trampin' it to Boston." "And you'll not stop your trampin' here," said the farmer. Move on. We've no room here for the likes of , n„ 99 } OIL " Let us sleep in the barn on the hay, then," said the man who had not before spoken. "That ain't much to ask o' tf " Too much, all the same," said Jaoob Graves. "I don't trust no tramps in my barn. So be off with yon." The men turned away, muttering some­ thing which the farmer did not catch, and Fred and Harry, thinking it useless to return to the subject of the Fourth of July procession, pot the harness away in a corner of the kitchen, and went up­ stairs to bed, their young hearts sore with the disappointment they had re­ ceived. So long had Mrs. Graves been under the despotic oontrol of her husband that she seldom ventured a remonstrance of any sort. But now her heart ached for her boys. She knew how deeply they v felt their father's injustice and oppres­ sion, and scarcely had the sound of their footsteps died away when fjh| went to bar husband's side and tijHuy laid a hand on his shoulder. wr "Jacob," she said, "the boys are young, and they need a little recreation now and then. Let them go to town to­ morrow." "I want no interference from you, Sarah." said the farmer, without looking up. If women had the management o* all the boys, there'd never be a worth anything." " But they work so hard every day," pleaded the mother. "No man ever had better sons than vonrs, Jacob. Show them that you appreciate their industry by giving them a holiday now and then, They'll work all the better for it." "Let them once begin to waste time an' there'll be no end to it," answered Jacob. " It's no use your puttin' in an oar far "em, Sarah. Hard work and plenty of it is the best kind o' food for boys. I was brought up on it, an' ouchter know." Mrs. Graves said no more. She leaned her aching head on her hand, and bent her sad eyes on the floor, wondering, poor soul, why she had at­ tempted so foolish a thing as to change Dawn had scarcely broken in the east when Jaoob Graves arose. He wanted to mate an early start to Monistown, and hia wife bad prepared breakfast for him the nighjt before. He stopped to wake the htm by a thundering knock on tbe door of the room where they slept. and then proceeded to the kitchen. where he hastily swallowed a bowl of oold oatmeal and milk, and then went to the barn to saddle tbe horse he was to ride. To his surprise the barn-door was standing open, and the staple which held the padlock was wrenched from its place. "Like as not them pesky tramps done this out o' spite," grumbled the farmer. I wish to the land the hull o* 'em was In the pen'tentiary for life. I hope they ain't stole old Bet." But a familiar whinny from the mare's stall as he entered set his mind at rest on this point; and he climbed the barn Stairs to throw down the hay for the faithful creature's breakfast. But scarcely had he filled the rack when there was a sudden rustle in the .. -- hay behind him, and with a low cry of , bis majority he was only too glad to exultation the two tramps to whom he j make an agreement with his father to had refused lodging the night before I remain on the old farm, his comfort and sprang upon him. \ the staff of his old agp.--Domestic in* i! ** ? * " But we must get this load in first, of course," said Fred.

"He's certainly had a sunstroke!" exclaimed Fred, as he sprang down from the hay. w* believe you're right," said Harry. . never acted sobefore. I only hone it 11 last." . It did last. The effect of that imag­ inary sunstroke never left Jacob Graves. Only to his wife did he tell his experi­ ence in the barn, and she, faithfnl soul, aided him by every means in her power keep the good resolutions he had made that Fourth of July. And so well were they kept that when Fred reached MEKOKT. " You miserable, sneokin'--" he be- pan, but the sentence was never fin­ ished, for a sudden blow on the head sent him reeling backward, senseless, and he fell like a log upon the hay. When he recovered consciousness the sun was shining brightly through the cracks of the barn, and it seemed to him that several hours must have elapsed since that sudden blow had stretched him senseless. His hands and feet were tied fast together, and a ragged hand­ kerchief had been used to gag There was a dull pain in his head, too, and he did not feel sufficient energy to make an effort to free himself. He was wondering in a disconnected, stupid way how long he must lie there beiore any one came to look for Mm, when he heard the sounds of wagon, wheels com­ ing round the corner of the barn. Then came Harry's voice, shouting to the oxen, "Haw, Beauty; gee, Bright," and the door of the loft of the barn was thrown open with a jerk. "Gettin' in the hay as I told 'em," thought Jacob, and it occurred to his benumbed mind that his boys never needed his watchful eye and stirring voice to make them work. They never shirked anything, either of them. Being only about five yards from them he could hear every word they uttered, though the immense mound of hay that lay between him and thedoor con­ cealed him from their view. He was wondering how he could make his situ­ ation known to them when he heard Fred say: "I really mean it, Harry. Tbe day I'm twenty-one I leave this farm forever. I'd be willing to stay, and would do more for father than any one else if he'd only appreciate what I do. But he looks upon us both as mechanics, aud tries to see how much work he can set out of us." " He ought to have let us off to-day, that's a fact," said Harry, who was al­ ways a little more moderate in every­ thing he said and did than his elder brother. "He's riob enough to spare us just one day." * ".Lew Gibson belongs to a base-ball club, and his father gives him every Saturday afternoon," said Fred. " I often wish I was in his plaoe. Every fellow we know will be town to day to see the fun, while we have to get in this hay. And last year it was just the same. I mowed and you raked just as if we'd never heard of Fourth of July." Father'll be sorry for it some day," said Harry. " I don't believe he's ever really thought of the matter impartially. He was brought up to work, and he be­ lieves in work. Mother says that grand­ father was just such another driver." Why, old Bet must be in her stall," cried Fred, as a sudden whinny sounded from the interior of the barn. "I won­ der what made father walk to Morris- town ! But I don't know as I care. Perhaps as it is so hot he'll get a sun­ stroke, and come near dying and see then how he's treated us boys. I've beard ®f such things." Jacob Graves heard no more; for the boys, having got in the hay, drove off for another load. Bnt he bad heard quite enough to set him thinking in good earnest. And for a wonder he was not angry. The longer lie had listened the stronger became his conviction that his boys were right; that he had looked up­ on them as machines and worked them to their utmost, and thac his whole sys­ tem of management was wrong. Sup­ pose Fred carried out his threat to leave the farm when he was 21 ? How could the farm thrive without him? What was he, Jaoob Graves, working for if not for his boys? And the thought that they both wanted to leave him cut his heart like a knife. He remembered his own boyhood. How cheerless, how bar­ ren of all joys it had been ! The recol­ lection of the privations, the disappoint­ ments, the sorrows he had endured came to him as it had never come since he had left his father's home. He, too, had been anxious to strike out for himself, to leave behind him the old home with which he had no tender or loving asso­ ciations. And what had he done ? Un­ wittingly unheeding, forgetting, the les­ sons of his own youth, for his own sons, he had closed his eyes to all signs of re­ bellion, his ears to the gentle reproach­ es of his over-worked wife. He had fol­ lowed in the track of his father because no other had been pointed ont to himt and now his boys oared nothing for him; they were anxious for the day to come that would give the right to leave him. Lying there in the sweet-scented hay be saw very plainly tbe mistake he had made, and resolved to retrieve it as for as possible. What would life be to him without his boys ? Oh, he must not, he could not let them go. Burning with new resolutions, he made an effort to free himself, and at last succeeded in working his feet and hands loose. Then he went slowly down the stairs and stood on the threshold of the barn just as the boys drove up with the second load of hay. They looked tired and warm, and Fred was fanning himself with his straw hat. " Why, father," cried Harry, in sur­ prise, "back already 1" " Yes," replied Jaoob ; " I didn't go far. I put off seein' Talman till to­ morrow." " You don't look well," said Fred. "You haven't had a--a--sunstroke, have you?" remembering his hasty words when throwing in the first load. • "Yes, I'have--a kind of sunstroke. But never mind that. I've changed my mind 'bont those Horribles, boys. If it ain't too late you can go now." The boys looked at each other in as­ tonishment. f~ " It's the sunstroke," said Fred under bis breath. " Thank you, sir," stammered Harry, half believing with Fred that the sun bad affected his father's mind. "It's Monthly. her husband's mind. She ought to have fajown him better, aftei eighteen years i half-past yfa^d the procession won t • Bn*rned We- ' start for an hour yet." Forests In the Southern States. , •A writer in the Lumber World gives the following interesting summary of the timber supply now in the S rnth : In Virginia and West Virginia, there are 40,000, (X)0 acres of land, only 15,- 000.000 of which have been improved. Most of this vast region is yet a dense undisturbed forest of mighty timber trees awaiting the ax of the Bpoiler. " Though the ceaseless chopping of the all-oonq aering ax has been heard on the banks of the James river in the Old Do­ minion for the last 270 years, yet the timber there is apparently iuexhaustible still, and presents a formidable appear­ ance. Tlie large number of rivers as well as railroads now makes much of\the Virginia timber accessible, as they are tidal streams almost to the very base of the Allegheny mountains. " The entire region pierced by the Virginia and Ten­ nessee, and Chesapeake aud Ohio rail­ roads is full of the grandest and wildest scenery, and yet untrodden by the foot of man, with countless thousands of acres of white, red and black oak, yel- low and white pine, ash, maple, cherry, i chestnut, poplar, spruce and yellow and | honey locust timber." The vast district in the East, known as the Dismal 6wamp, will always furnish an inexhaustible supply of timber, which springs up as rapidly as it is felled. The value of the Virginia lumber trade is (now upward of §3,000,000 a year. Timber land in the East is worth about $15 an ac«e, and in the interior about 83. The making of nail-keg staves, fruit boxes, etc., is a rapidly increasing industry. North Carolina, immediately south, " is one of the greatest shingle pro­ ducing regions in the world." Tlie State is famous for its enormous supplies of turpentine, tar, resin, charcoal and pine lumber and timber. The many rivers of South Carolina, adjoining, afford an inland navigation of thousands of miles, excluding rail­ roads. Her^tock of timber trees is am­ ple, consisting of live oak, pine, palmet­ to and laurel, on tide water, and oaks, hickory and pines iu the upper regions. " Her stock of hickory is just being drawn on to supply the world with ham­ mer, ax, spade, plow, mallet, hatchet, pick and sledge handles in almost in­ calculable quantities, to say nothing of cogs, pullies, spokes, hubs, rims, tongues, shuttles, bobbins and many other labor-saving purposes." But of coursc it is useless to enumer­ ate the millions of acres of most valuable timbers in all the Southern States. The supply now on hand and rapidly grow­ ing up would seem to be amplj for all future time, even if we of the North are the spendthrifts we are accused of being. When the price of metals falls to reason­ able figures, iron will be largely used, instead of wood, for cars, bridges, rail­ road ties, plows, wagons, vessels, build­ ings, etc., as it is in other countries, and will be greatly prefeirei The sooner this becomes the case, the better for us all. In the meantime there seems to be no immediate danger of a lumber famine. The Indian as He Really Is. A correspondent in the far West writes as follows : Every tradition re­ peating the Btory of Indian bravery, gen­ erosity and hospitality fades like mist before the actual man. The instinct of baseness runs through the whole family, from King Philip and Bed Jacket down to Sitting Bull. The common instincts of savagery are intensified in the race. Brave only in superior numbers or under cover ; honest only in hypocrisy; merry only at the sight of suffering inflicted by his own hands ; friendly and hospit­ able only through cunning; and sub­ limely mendacious always, the Indian as he is actually known seems poor ma­ terial out of which to manufacture a hero or frame a romance. Prominent as he has always been in American history; always the impediment to be removed, and afterward the dependent to be sup­ ported ; mollified by semi-annual gilts, oiled and pacified by periodical talks about the Great Father and blarney about "brothers ;" through campaigns, councils, treaties and tribal reservations, he has but one redeeming fact upon his record, viz. : that he has never been thoroughly tamed, and has never been a te vaii . Neither has the hyena. Most efforts in his behalf have failed to alter his status or change his life. Almost everywhere the men ,are idle and the squaws work. Almost everywhere' her education is limited to one lesson--to toil and be silent Almost everywhere he is nnwashed and entirely naked, save in the respect of paint, swarming with that industrious insect to which the Scottish* poet wrote an apostrophe. Almost every­ where, each family is the manufacturer and producer of all articles required in daily life. Almost everywhere^ each family is self-supporting, and comiprises in itself the whole plan of patriarchal government. Almost always, the Indian is the persistent and importunate beggar on this continent. Almost always, the compendium of an Indian's knowledge of English is the one word " How ? " or "Howl" Almost all Indians will " How" as soon as invited, and in pro­ digious quantities. -- Troy Times.

It was pointed out king ago by psy­ chologists that memory is a two fold prccess, comprising a conservation and a reproduction. It is the object of thi« treatise to show that the first of these processes, cooservi dally upon _ of nutrition, while tbe second, reproduce tion, is dependent upon general or local circulation. The power of conservatism presupposes a primary condition that may be vaguely described as a normal constitution of the brain. Idiots are the subjects of congenital amnesia, is to say, of an innate inability to fix impressions. Again, fatigue in any foim, superinducing as it does an abnor­ mal cerebral condition, is detrimental, and sometimes fatal, to memory. Ex­ plicit testimony on this point is supplied by tlie experience of Sir H. Holland, who descended, on the same day, two very deep mines in the HartZ mountains, remaining under ground some hours in eat>h. He tells us us that while in the second mine, and exhausted both from fatigue and inanition, he found it utterly impossible to talk longer with the German inspector who accompanied him; every German word and phrase deserted his recollection, and it was not until he had taken food and wine and had been some time at rest that he regained them. The cases where that amnesia has been observed to follow cerebral shock are also explained by most physiologists as re­ sulting from defective nutrition.

She never recovered recollection of period of her life, aud although she ac­ cepted, on the testimony of her friends, the fact that she was married and had a son, she was never able to realize how she gained a husband and gave birth to a child. Another interesting instance is reported by Prof. William Sharpey. The patient was a young married woman, who for about six weeks remained in a A Pleasant Experiment with Salt. Do you want to grow salt and at the same time have an interesting, handsome ornament? The proceeding is a novel chemical experiment that, may be tried by any one. Put in a goblet one table- spoonful of salt and one spoonful of blu­ ing ; fill the goblet two-thirds full of water, and set it in a position where it will have plenty of warmth and snnlight. In a little while sparkling crystals will commence forming on the outside of the glass, and it is both a novel and interest­ ing sight to watch it gradually growing day by day until the outside of our gob­ let will be entirely covered over with beautiful white crystals. Another varia­ tion of this beoutiful experiment would be to take a goblet with the base broken off and fa^en it in the center of a thin piece of board, which may be roun 1, square or oblong. After the crystals have formed on the glass, set it on a tiny wall bracket, nnd place a bricht holiday or birthday card in front of it; this will hide the base, on which no crystals will form. After this is done till the goblet with flowers or dried grasses, and you wiil have a vase which will cost compar­ atively little and in reality adds to the bric-a-brac of a room.

Among other singular names are such as "1 am little, pity my condition," "Peggy grieves me," "J€ you clothed," "Sweetest when stripped, "Jack, oome tickle me," "Briton, strike home," " Watch them and catch them," "Turn about, Tommy," "Kiss in a cor­ ner," "I will if I can," "flop, step and a jump," "Tickle me quickly," "Jack- in-a-box," "Kick him, Jenny." Even qnite recently there have been a few instances of such a nomenclature. Lord George Bentmck had " Here I go with my eye out" and "All around my hat;" Gen. Peel had "I am not aware," and Lord Glasgow owned "He has a name" and "Give him a name." It is a ourious fact that not a single Derby winner has had an eccentric name.
