Jim was one of that easy-going sort of men who take all things for granted, and ever mindful of the welfare of others in preference to that of self. I'll relate one incident of Jim's life; it wasa sad one and brought him to where he is now-- Bloomingdale Insane Asylum. day boats that ran butween Albany and New York, His little pit away down out of sight of the blue sky, except a little patch that came like a gleam of gladness through the grim window, was made into a little paradise when his merry voico filled each nook and corner of it ashe sang tho hytns he bad learned at Sunday School. You see Jim wasa Christian in every sense of the word, and he tried to make that baby- faced wife of his believe as he did. |1 don't mean he'd ask her to go to the same church, kneel at the sume* shrine and say the same prayer. Jim wasn't quite so selfish as that, He'd be satified if she'd go anywhere to church, bat, would you believe it, she wouldn't even do that for him. How Jim ever came to marry such a weak, punny-minded woman, I never could seo. 'I suppose he fell in love with her and married her bufore he kuew what she was. Jim's best thought, when he was putting the great lumps of coal through the furnace door; was of his little girl. You seo he'd long been wondering why his wife didn't seem to be glad when he'd come at night, all black and grimy with coal dust from a trip down the river, and at last the poor fellow partly mado up his mind that she didn't love him. After the baby came he turned his thoughts from his wife to her. He noticed how his wife would stop the little one when she would caress ber as children will. It pained the poor fellow, though you can believe, and at last from think- ing this and that ho made up his mind that his wife didn't like the little one because it was partly of his flesh-and blood. One morning Jim came down to the landing und I could see that there was trouble at the poer fellows heart, so I up and asked him what was the matter. He knew I was well acquainted with the doings of his wite,and so be told me how she had Jett the baby with a neighbor and went with a young fellow toa pic nic the day before when Jim was on the river. Now I think a great deal of women folks. I know there is & pile-of honor in the general class of them. I knew, too, there is a little devil in some of them, and it fired my blood at once to see the way a great, tig, kind-beatred fellow like Jim was treated by such a baby- faced woman with that little devil in her, I blurted righv out. 'Why in thunder don't you leave her to whittle her own sticks ?' Jim's face got. pale in a second, and in a low voice he said : ¢ But captain what will become of the baby ? That was a puzzler for you know it was a sucking thing yet, and they go with the woman whenever the man and the wife dissolve partner- ship. I couldn't say a word ;'and I didn't hear a single hymn that day frum the conl pit. I looked down three or four times, though and every time he was standing at the little window looking up at the sky. Why it made me so mad at the--I beg pardon I cume very near swear- ing. Bat Ifeltas if I could pitch that woman into the Hudson itl could only have had her near me. Well, we made the trip down; and when Jim and I parted, he to go to his lodgings and 1 to mine, I took him by the hand and said : Jim, old turn out right yet.' The poor fel- low gave my hand a grip and said «Captain, I can't help fecling hard over it for I love her--and I once thought she loved me.' Iain't much of a talker on love, so I couldn't say arything more but with another shake we parted for the night. I met him again about nine o'clock--drunk. I tell you it struck me all of a heap, though when I saw him com* ing out of a gin shop on Canal street He was mumbling about happy homes, loving wives and babies I took his arm and led him to bis lodg= ing place. I talked and talked with him about making such a fool of himself for one woman, but he did not seem to realize | he kept mutter- | ing about 'killing time' and women and babies. The next morning he seemed a little shy of me, butl| R. RICHARDSON Re-appointed Tester Marriage Licenses. Undoc the Now Act. Office, lot 10, in the 18% con Brock.

Dairy Management in Winter. year good management for a dairyman on the recovery of lost condition,and fellows feelings by insinuating a word about last night's doings, Well, there ain't much more to toll. When Jim got home he didn't find bis wife. She left a note on the table telling him he need not look for her, for she had gone away with the interesting chap who. took her to the pic-nic. She said he'd find the baby at a neigh off hg stated, I suppose withihis great heart breaking into little bits with every step he took. He had to go across - the foot of State street.-- There was a crowd of men and women standing on the bridge look ing into the water. Ina mivute he knew that some one bad fallen into the river. He reached the rail- ing of the bridge justin time to sce a boatman taking out his (Jim's) littlé drowned baby from the water. A little girl of the neighbor's bad taken Jim's baby out on the bridge to see the boats. Tho little one gave a jump of dalight, I suppose, und jumped out of the girl's arms into the water below. [twas a sad thing I tell you. The next trip I I took down the river Jim wont aboard, in care of a maa, bound for Bloomingdale. I never heard of the --excuse me--woman j but, if ever remorse comes to a humun being; I know she'll get a big share. That is the story of poor Jim the fireman, He was a good man, but one of these woman with a little devil in ber murdered his babe and her's and sent him to the insane asylum. Why she turned from him why her heart grew cold towards him, I don't know. Women have queer notions, and one of the most inexplicable of these is the one of leaving home, children and husband for a life of shame, with never a possible reason to justify the act.-- Good afternoon, stranger hope I'll I left the good-hearted captain; Dairymen are learning every more and more about their business. Itused to be considered to get through the winter season with as little expenditure of food as possible. It was a common thing for a smart one to blow how cheaply he had curried his herd through the cold season prin- cipally on straw, saying: ' They are a little thin, but they will pick up when the gruss comes.' This man did not seem to realize that the 'picking np' would all be expended that very little milk would be pro- duced while this is going on. Most dairymen have learned ere this thay a cow in a poor condition in the spring will yield a comparatively poor retarn of milk through the season. They have learned that 'something never comes from no- thing,' and that no policy is more suicidal for a dairyman than to winter his cows on innutricious food so as to reduce their flesh. Every dairyman, who has observed the effect of condition on tho flow of milk after calving knows that extra flesh represents an extra yield of milk. Itis not difficult to doter- mine very closely, how much milk every pound of extra flesh and fat represeuts, A deop milker is very apt to draw so heavily on her own flesh as to become thin at the end of the season, having used all the extra food consumed during thesummer in the secretion of milk, besides hor extra flesh in theepring. If a cow has accumulated 100 pounds of extra flesh or. fat during the winter, she will yieid (if a good milker) at least 500 pounds more milk during the season, or five pounds of milk for one extra of flesh or fat. We think six pounds of milk to one of flesh is nearer the actual yield. The dairy- man, therefore, who does not feed his cows, well through the winter, is notonly indfal of the fi of his cows, but is cheating himself out of the profits of next season.-- National Live-Stock Journal.

BUCKWANAT OAKES WITHOUT YEAST, The young man in one of the Colorado mines who wants to know how to make buckwheat cakes without yeast can have the advice of an old camper out; 'A measure and directions should come with cach package of baking powder ; but; in the absetice of it, I take one teaspoonful of the sods and thoroughly mix with one quart of flour, then add two teaspoonfuls of the acid. When ready to bake or fry, asthe case may be, stir in milk or water till of the right consistency. As a proof of the quality of my biscuit made in the above way, perhaps an di may be ad blé, Cawpi once on one of the Adirondack lakes I had biscuit baking in a tin oven before the camp fire, when a boat was paddled to our landiug and a guide celebrated for his queer remarks --Sam Dunning--stepped to the fire, As he saw what was going on, he said : ¢* What, choke dog?

Truly ifscience keeps on in this way, the world will become quite a comfort. able place to live in after 'a while." e-- Putin its true Light.--The Millton Champion says:--"We have recently heard so many crude and peculiar ideas expressed by well-meaning people regarding the ob- jects a publisher has in issuing a newspaper and the sources from which he derives his remuneration that we think a little infor- mation on tbe subject may be interesting and useful to seme of our readers, It ap- pears to be the general opinion among sab~ scribers to a weekly paper that the amount received in subscriptions is ample repayment for the trouble and money expended in its publication, and that he who, for some teal or imagiuary offence, says' stop my piper ' inflicts a heavy and lasting punish. ment upon the publisher, It should be understood, then, that the cash expenditure for one year upon a properly conducted jotirnal with 1,000subscribers is from $1,500, to $2,000, while the publisher is fortunate if he reccives $800 in subscriptions during the year, having to depend on job work and advertising to make up the loss and keep him in bread and butter. .
