( Oil Johanle. >AI> OTL JOHNKIK," WW© made timself as well known in Detroit as in ny other town he entered, was the son Of a poor farmer in Pithole, Pa., and fiis real name was Steele. The miser­ able farm, which had never yielded flie family a subsistence, proved to be #ne of the richest oil locations in Penn­ sylvania, and when Johnnie arrived at inhood he found himself an orphan possession of a fortune of some ^2,500,000, which he commenced to ing away with mad recklessness. >se was on hand ,&nd helped him to §et through with a goodly share of it I the maddest excitement of gambling, fiot and fast life. Coal Oil Johnnie Jsed to think he never could get to the adof his pile. He would sit down nd calculate the thousands he owned, IkOtd swear that he could never get rid •f it. He did, though, in a little more fha'n two years, and now he is a station "Agent on the Atlantic & Great West­ ern Railroad. Rose tells some charac­ teristic stories of his companion with 'jrhom he traveled all over the Conti­ nent, wherever sport and excitement Fere- to be had. Once, when sitting riiii Steele and Murphy, a variety •ctor, who used to play at Beller's SI ace on Randolph street, a telegram aaie for Steele. Murphy took it and Opened it. The dispatch was from Bartlo^l, Conn., and read*. "Twenty •thousand dollars here to your order. What shall we do with it?" Coal Oil Johnnie ref used to take the dispatch after Murphy handed it to hini. " Write 'em an answer, telling 'em that if I don't call for it in five years to give it, to an orphan asylum," said the - ttiagniticent spendthrift. « 1 Two years later Johnnie called for the money. He had spent all but that •um, and it only served to keep him in dissipation for a few weeks. Rose had at that time something over $20,000 that he had acquired himself, •ad felt entitled to travel on a footing of equality with this remarkable fool. Once Johnnie got on a spree in De­ troit. He went to a house on Macomb street, and to make the orgie sensa­ tional, completely destroyed a $250 pi­ ano, by stamping it in with his feet. The next day he sent the owner a $300 Steinway. In Philadelphia he saw a jiair of horses being harnessed in a liv- •ery stable and wanted to drive them. The stable-keeper refused, as the horses belonged tQ another party, who boarded them, but who would seu them for $1,500. Johnnie paid the money, tlrove the horses furiously for two hours, and then sold them to the col­ ored coachman for a dollar bill. Light- lug cigars with $100 notes was a favor­ ite diversion. He was charitable and generous, with all his profligacy, and often did much good with his money.-- Detroit News. Elephants In a Quicksand. ON the River Ganges (says an En­ glish military journal) there are many quicksands, and, duringotir expedition, a somewhat distressing scene hap­ pened. An elephant incautiously came within the vortex of one; first one foot sank, then another; and, in endeavor­ ing to extricate himself, matters be- oarae worse; no portion of either of his tegs were at last visible, and the by­ standers had given up the poor animal as lost. Being fortunately unusually powerful, he, three times, with what appeared to all supernatural strength, drew a foot from the closely-clinging «iarth, placed^ it where, by sounding ;*ritli his trunit, hie found the most solid­ ify: not until the third time did the fround bear his pressure, when he radually released himself. During the whole period of his troubles his cries were exceedingly dolorous, arid might have been heard a couple of miles; his grunt, when they were at an ehd, was equally indicative of satisfaction-, The internal application of a bottle of strong spirits soon dissipated his trembling and restored his equanimity, j; Many unfortunate elephants!sire lost in these treacherous sands, when large quantities of grass or branches jof trees are not at nand to form an available support for them. After a certain time • the poor beast becomes powerless, and the owner can only look with | sorrow at the gradual disappearance) of his aoble animal* and lament the pecuniary loss he thereby suffers, for all human aid is futile.. They have been known to be twelve hours before entirely sinking. A Modern "Crusoe." THE Heading (Pa.) Eagle publishes an article about a modern Robinson Crusoe, a man who left this country in to.evade going to the war, and was cast away among savages, with wham he made his abode for six­ teen years, and .now returns to his home in Steading, hardly able to speak his native tongue. His name is Samuel Wenrich, and he is described as heavy bearded, swarthy and foreign-looking, ""more like a mulatto than a white man, and with heavy ringlets falling down bis broad shoulders. His first state­ ment to the Eagle's representative was that when he left Hew York, in 1861, he had $100 in his pocket, and he has some of the money now. He went to Rio Janeiro, .and thence sailed for Cape Town, South Africa. Off /the west boast of Africa, "it must have been near the Co®&o.River," he says, he was sent ashore with a Portuguese in search of water, but when they returned the vessel was g<me, and they never saw it Again. His companion was eaten up x the same night by a wild beast, and ahere he lived .alone with the natives for sixteen loag years. "I had given «p years ago a£L hopes of returning to civilization," he says, "but there was one thing that imbued me with a desire po return to wy native .country." And then he told his interviewer that what aroused him from an apathy which 5roma«ad to be life-long, was that one ay while crossing a large river he found a handkerchief betweeri two rocks, marked in one corner, "Henry H. Stanley." Returning to the village he had made his home, he was told that white* men had been there during his absence. Then he started to walk < home, and in eighty days reached Cape - Town, about two months ago. There he caught a boat bound for New York and took passage at once. While very proud of the Stanley memento, he de- £l&ree that many of the great explorer's letters are incorrect as regards the country, and goes on to relate his ex­ perience with the natives* iwd their nabits. stajtaf oathe Farm. ' ">r ' \ • ' * • • • THERE is no doubt that the boy who is to grow up and stay on the farm and make a successful farmer, must like his profession. This as is true in agri­ culture as in any other profession in life. If the boy be worked from daylight to dark, week in and week out, with no recreation except what he gets at church, very likely he will leave home at the first opportunity for some more congenial occupation. We believe that, as a rule, farmers work too many hours and give themselves too little rec­ reation. We believe that in this day of improved machinery for nearly every operation of the farm, a full amount of necessary labor may be accomplished in ten hours, except in seeding and harvest time. Of course there are al­ ways necessary choral that must be done at the beginning and ending of the day, but there is no "need that these be accomplished during the very early or very late hours of the morning or even­ ing. The farmer, as a rule, who works himself, his children, and his hands, twelve, thirteen or fourteen hours a day, seldom gets as much accomplished at the year's end as he who by wise forethought systematizes his labor and carries it forward during shorter hours. For, the system thus remains fresh for labor/and it is carried forward swiftly and unremittingly. The team worked ©onsttbntlyv for twelve houjw a day, soon become sluggish, \vill accom­ plish no more in the given time than it would in eight or ten hours. In fact, we believe the average team will ac­ complish more in eight .hours than in ten, one day with another. For years we adopted as a rule these hours of field labor, except in pressing seasons, and found it to work well. So it is with men, and especially bom 11 overworked, boys become stolid and slow--old before their time. On the other hand, if allowed plenty of time for recreation (as necessary to the young as food), they return to labor not only with vigor, but they learn to love labor as a means to increased com­ fort. They will "be found to spend many hours of recreation in some little act of home adornment. Especially will this be the case if they be given a gar­ den bed or two for flowers and vegeta­ bles, if they be allowed to dispose of the produce as they please. Buy them seeds, plants and bulbs. They need not necessarily be expensive. These may serve as a little source of rev­ enue to their pockets as they in­ crease, and from their store they can sell and buy or exchange. Furnish them papers and books to teach them the art, and it will riot be money illy spent. Above all, send them to school, that their minds may be. broadened by education. The boy or girl reared on the farm with only three months'school­ ing in winter, with the schoolhouse perhaps a long distance from home, and three hours' chores morning and evening, are likelv to become disgusted with the farm and seek other employ­ ment as soon as they are out of leading strings. Happily nowadays this is fast be­ coming less and less common. Our free school system makes it not difficult for the bov or girl reared on the farm, con­ ducted on modern principles, to get a good practical education, and some of the" finish," as well. As a country set­ tles, we find neighborhoods here and there where a beginning is made in th$ adornment oi the uousc and grounds. The example shown is appreciated, and one and an­ other takes up the idea, until/ at length an entire neighborhood!, as means permit, build better barns and dwellings and outhouses. Trees are planted, vines cluster about porches, shrubs and foliage plants adorn the lawn, flower beds here ^and there are seen glowing with color, fence corners are kept tidy. Inside the dwelling are books, magazines, and the welcome ag­ ricultural paper, with the varied Intel­ ligence contained. There is an air of cheerfulness and thrift everywhere, evidence that the master, while looking out carefully for the everyday routine of the farm, has an eye as well to the intellectual Wants of the household. Such homes will never be found the result of overworking the family, but of a wise alternation of labor and rec­ reation, each in its proper time and place. The children of these homes are contented to stay and be happy. There is still room- for improvement in this direction among the masses. The season is now at hand when the aavnrar laivwa rvf 4-Via form £,*"£ • The great annual gatherings of the ag­ ricultural masses at our fairs is now in its full tide of progress. Much may there be learned of what the year's progress has been in agricultural art and machinery as adapted to the farm, to those who go to make a eareful study, while at the same time they en­ joy needed recreation. a Go then, so far as your means will allow, and with your family, that the enjoyment and the lessons there presented may be fully taken in. It will be found to be time well spent--the two or three days given --and money well invested. --Prairi§ Farmer. \ --A distinguished medical authority recommends for use in civil and mili­ tary hospitals, arid for the purpose of destroying the poison-germs of small­ pox, scarlet fever and other infectious diseases, a disinfectant composed of one part of rectified oil of turpentine and seven parts of benzine, with the addi­ tion of five drops of oil of verbena to each ounce.

It was cultivated by hand with a hoe. It was planted in drills one foot apart and the grain four inches apart in the rows. It was carefully cultivated as a garden crop usually is, until the plants were so large as to in­ terfere. The day is coming when all wheat will be cultivated.--lotm State Register. # STEEL which has rusted can be cleaned by brushing with a paste made of half an otmce cyanide potassium, half an ounce castile soap, one ounce whiting and water sufficient to form a paste. The steel should first be washed with a solution of half an ounce cyanide potassium in two ounces water. To pre­ serve steel from rusting, a good method is to paint it with melted caoutchouc, to which some oil lias been added.-- Scientific American. , SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH TOMATOES.-- Break six eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork just enough to break the yelks. Take as many medium-sized tomatoes as you haveJeggs. Use only the pulpy part of the fruit, drawing off the juice and the seeds as much as pos­ sible. Put a lump of butter into a frv- ing-pan, and when melted tui*n in the tomatoes; stir for a minute, add the eggs and continue stirring until cooked. Season to taste and serve very quickly. TOMATO CATSUP.--Cut one peck of ripe tomatoes in halves, boil them in a lined sauce-pan until the pulp is all dis­ solved, then strain them well through a hair sieve arid set the liquor on to boil, adding one ounce salt, one ounce mace, one tablespoonful black pepper, one teaspoonful red pepper, one table- spoonful ground cloves, five of ground mustard; let them all boil together five or six hours, and stir them most of the time. Let the mixture stand eight or ten hours in a cool place, add one pint of vinegar and then bottle it; seal the corks and keep in a cool, dark place THERE is a very simple process whereby paper can be maue as strong as parchment, and proof against all moisture, by dipning it into a solution of sulphuric acid, mixed with half its weight of water. Almost as soon as the paper is dipped into the solution, it becomes strong and heavy, and is quite as desirable, it is said, for all the purposes that sheepskin is used, and looks almost as well as that material. For bookbinding it has proved very ex­ cellent, and as a covering for preserves and pickles it is equal to metal. If the paper is covered with print, it is just as easily made into a thick substance, as the acid defaces all marks. If you desire to waterproof paper without giv­ ing it the character of parchment, it can be done by dissolving a pound and a half of alum in one part of water, and adding to it four ounces of white soap. Have the soap fine and melt it in the boiling water, putting in the alum at the same time. Then dissolve six ounces of common glue, and two ounces of gum arabic, in one quart of boiling water, arid when all is well melted mix the two solutions in a boil­ ing state, and dip in the sheets of pa­ per while it is yery hot. Hang them across, lines to dry, and then press them smoothly. Paper thus prepared is very desirable for packing aw^y articles exposed to dampness, as in a sea voyage, or for any purpose of pre­ serving goods from moisture.--N. Y. Times. ( Vegetables and Flowers. WHILE we hava no kind of sympathy with the man who foolishly claims that a potato-plant is as handsome as a rosebush, or, with old Dr. Johnson, who thought the handsomest flower he ever saw was a "cauliflower, we do think there is beauty, and a good deal of beauty, in a neatly-kept vegetable gar­ den and in a well-grown vegetable, as well as in a thrifty orchard or garden of small fruits. The fact is, all Na­ ture's works are beautiful when not marred by the foolishness or wicked­ ness of men. Few objects are really more pleasant to look upon than a field of corn, and we have been in countries where no ob­ ject created more attention than a clump of corn among the tall plants on the borders of the shrubbery--plants that had been nursed in their early stages with the greatest care in pots. A good bed of fine large onions is no mean object, while for fragrance they hold their own against the world of flowers. The potato is handsome in all its stages, and especially so when in bloom. The purple-leaved beets are exceedingly fine, and we have seen them used in more than one country for ornamental purposes. The finer varieties of parsley, and the curled kales are as pretty as any of the ferns, and may often be used with fine effect for ornamental purposes. Indeed, for garnishing, they are invaluable. Among our ornamental pet plants there are very few that excel a good pepper- plant well loaded with its curiously- formed scarlet fruit, and we can well remember when the tomato was used for ornamental purposes alone. A cucumber bed in early spring everyone likes to see. The leaves are so large and thrifty, and the flowers so yellow. It is like a glimpse of sum­ mer.

There is beauty everywhere if we will only look for it, and, while we .would like to persuade every farmer to have a little flower garden for his own good, and for the pleasure of wife and children, we say if you cannot do this, by all means have a vegetable garden; grow everything well, keep all in per­ fect neatness, and health and happiness will be secured, and you will soon rise to the dignity of a flower garden.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly elaias for it % superiority over all rem­ edies ever offered to the public for the SAFE, CERTAIN, SPEEDY and PEBMANENT cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, wheth­ er of short or long atanding. He refers to the entire Western and Southern country to bear him testimony to (he truth of the aesertioa that in no cas© whatever will it fail to care if the directions are strietly followed and carried out. In a great many oases a single dose haa been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been cared by & tingle bottle, with a per* •feet restoration of the general health. It ia, however, pradent, and in every case more cer­ tain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will not require anv aid to keep thu bowels in good order. Should the patient, however, re* quire a cathartic medieine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient.
