    MAN'S MASTERPIECE.
Through countless ages on the earth there
wrought
A race called man, which 6trove ihmI
hoped and dreamed;
A.nd those there were who sang, and
those who taught,
And those who whispered of the lost
redeemed.
And as they came and went they tmildod
here
A structure marvelous that no man
planned, '. . " " " '
A towering temple, rising white and sheer
Where sea-lapped mountains frown
upon the land. .,' ,
On through its portals, ever moving;
passed
Si A
The generations, nddlne to Itp, store ,',
Of all that's beautiful, until ht last- ""
To those who', gazed, there seqmed no
room for more. ' .'a? " '
Not all in peace had this proud panc?t
grown,, f vi t-
For in its shadow men nao; warred onu
died; -
And, falling there, had seen the e'T
flown i
That, erstwhile glonmimj,' filled their
hearts with pride. ..
But ever hopeful, as the ages cried
From out the , ages to the race that
wrought, ,;." '
They builded then anew, and, side by side,
Carved what they dreamed and writ
there what they thought.
And so on earth man through the aeons
Btrove
To make this palace notrter to the eye,
And worthy, as the casket of his love,
To tell his glory to the bye-and-bye.
And some day lonely on a lonely earth,
The last man sleeping where his fathers
sleep.
This wondrous thing that in man's soul
had birth
Shall rise iu Bilence by the moaning
1 deep;
A temple, made for dust-worms, of a race
That camo and went, and dreamed its
dream and died;
And, crumbling there, shall fall to earth
again,
The mausoleum of man's love and pride.

At dinner I'snt next to n dashing sort
of person, wlio presently Introduced
himself ns Captain ,1'ordi of New York.
Ho was a gentleman, so far as 1 could'
judge in the short Interview, and was
pleased to make his acquaintance. We
spent the afternoon together until four
o'clock, wheu we both went on board
the steamer. 1

"You stoppetl nt rnlont'owh, think
rem sald,'y remarked; iny friend, as wo
seated ourselves Iu the saloon .after
Biipper. " . .
"Yes, I was tlicrc a couple of days."
"Of course you heard that the Imnli
was robbed."
"I did; but it was two or threo days
before iny arrival."
"That was lucky for you."
"Why so?"
"Because every person who has
passed through the place within a fort
night previous to the robbery has been
suspected of the crime. You wouldn't
take me for a bank robber, 1 presume'"
"Certainly uot."
"Yet I am certain that suspicion
rested upon me, though 1 was not open
ly charged with the crime."
"Impossible!"
"I think so. It was decidedly annoy
ing to bo suspected of such an offence."
"Well, 1 dou't know; If a man is Inno
cent, why should he can1?"
"True; but it Is an uncomfortable
feeling."
"I don't feel so."
"Sometimes, you know, clrcustnnees
give a eolor to such suspicions. For ex
ample, one having a great deal of
money about him, might tlnd himself
the possessor of some bills of this very
bank that has beeu robbotl. Of course
they are scattered all over the coun
try."
"Very true; I doubt not I have some
of the bills of the I', hank."
"I know that I have."
I pulled out my poeketbook and found
I had about 513 of the money. Captain
Ford also produced two $30 bills.
"I got a hundred-dollar bill changed
In Cumberland, and received these
DOtOH."
After this conversation we went
out upon the . gallery uud smoked a
cigar; but the night was too dark and
damp to remain outside, and we re
turned to the cabin. As wp entered the
sniooa, I noticed that a rough-looking
fellow, who had followed us out, was
close "Upon our heels as we returned.
He seemed to take no special notice of
ns, though I observed that he placed
himself very near us.
The captain and myself' had some
further conversation in regard to the
bank, which,, however, was introduced
by me. Two or three times, I caught
the rough-looking fellow in, the act of
paying very close attention to our re
marks, and with a suddeS dbn'clufijfn !.

But the onilnous. words did not seem
to drive away the fellow, and ho contin
ued to follow us, apparently heedless ol
the suspicions that had fastened upon
him.
At nine o'clock wo concluded to re-'
tire. Captain Ford entered the- state
room and "turned in," while I went to
the washroom to refresh myself , with
an ablution. I entered the room and
closed the door, but had scarcely done
so before It was rather rudely pushed
open again, and I discovered the form
of the rough-looking fellow standing at
my side.
"You are my prisoner, sir," he said,
slapping me on the back.
"What?" I exclaimed, rather aston.
ished at this salutation.
"My prisoner, sir."
, "Your warrant?"
"I'll show you that In the morning."
"On what charge do you arrest me?"
"On the charge of robbing the C.
Bank."
"Come, come, my ,boy,,tbat'B alto

Ford. "The gentleman Is from New
York, and I'll vouch for Ms character."
"I dare say you will, -but; he Is iny

Al)0ut two in the morning the boat
arrived at the Pittsburg landing; but
When the bustle had subsided I went to

"I will sew them I won't do It!" '
But tlie olllcers did It for him, and to

which may be.of sornS Valuable variety.
S damaging has been Smut on all kinds

ment lias issuetl. a. special bulletin on
tlije subjwt, , The. loss of grain from
s:nut In tills couiiTry is very large, and
y tlie matter lias- received but little
attention. Smut is caused by minute
parasiUc fungi, the spores or seed-like
bodies ot which form the black, dusty
maes which takes the place of the ker
nels or the entire head. These spores
are very minute, and are easily blown
atiout, often adhering to the kernel be
fore it Is planted, and when such ker
nels sprout the spores also germinate
and send delicate threads Into the
young seedlings. Thqse threads follow
the growth of the plant, fill the head as
soon as formed, and there develop a
mass of spores Instead of kernels. This
black mass Is so well known as to be
recognized by every fanner who has
grown grain, but many farmers may
not be aware of tho fact that every ear
of corn containing smut is a menace to
the grain crop of next year. All such
stalks should bo cut out and burned on
the first sign of smut, and whore oats,

" ' ' Penna Among Corn.
f uccotash was on original Indian
dlsliando the Indians wo probably
owe the practice of growing corn and
loans interspersed in the same field.
Usually when the early planted corn
falls, a hill of beans is placed In the va
cancy where tlie corn should liave boon.
Still another way of growing beans
among corn Is to wait uutfl near July,
and then plant hills between every hill
of com, and thereafter cultivate only In
the rows that are free from tho lonns.
Oh good hind a considerable crop of
lnans may thus be grown, and without
interfering with the corn crop. We
have tried this plan when we were liv
ing in a city, where all our gardening
had to bo done on a city lot, and it was
necessary to make the land produce ns
much as it could bo made to do. Amer

Pome Kemcdlea,
Clarence Ilawley, of Illinois, says he
has tried two remedies that have never
failed to his knowledge. He says; "For
scours In calves take corncobs and chop
them up about lVb or 2 Inches long, put
thorn In a kettle on tho stove and stoop
them until you get the tea out of them.
Put It In a long-necked bottle nnd pour
It down the calf's throat It will stop
the scours nnd will not hurt them. It
will uot hurt a young colt, but will stop
the scours at once. Hogs' lard will take
warts off horses. Apply It once a day
for a short tune.
Movable Itenhonsco.
The great evils of vermin and disease
among poultry are best combated by
ketuilng small tlocki of hens, and bous
1 mmwZ5k
ing them In a number of henhouses
made small enough to be easily moved
from one place to another. Such houses
need not be expensive, and if a stone
boat Is fitted with a broad platform the
henhouse may be placed on It and
drawn anywhere on the farm. Wher
ever Insect enemies are depredating, it
is well to place several of these hen
houses near-by, and let them help clear
away the vermin, and also be getting
the larger part of their living. It may
require that a yard be built up so as to.
keep the fowls from straying too far.
But hens with chickens are the,' best
scavengers, and they will remain near
their temporary home, and , return to'
It at night :
Manuring Dean Oronnd. . .
It is a common mistake to suppose
that beans do best on poor land,., and
do not need any manure. Old fanners
often say, "the land was too rich," and,
therefore the beans "ran all to vines
without producing much grain." But
this is the best indication that the land
was not rich enough. Beans require
phosphate of lime and potash. Many
black, mucky soils are supposed from'
their color to be very rich. But such
soils often have a great lack of lime
and potash. In fact an excess of loam
means that at some time it has been
covered with water, and its mineral
fertility has mostly been washed out
Or it may be that the soil is even now
wet, and the bean crop is very impa
tient of too much moisture, which
causes many rusts both of tho leaves,
pods and beans.
Home-Bred Cows,
It is always best wherever possible to
breed cows on the same farm where
they are to be kept. The cow is a very
home-loving animal, and if taken from
old associations it will neither eat nor
give so much milk as it would if kept
where It was grown. We have seen
cows walk uneasily around the field as
If looking for a place to get out for
days, and until the grass in the path
they made was entirely destroyed. Of
course such cows cannot be profitable
milkers. After a cow has had one calf
in her now homo, tt seems more home1
like to her, and If she is where she can
see it and sometimes be with it, she
will be less discontented, except for the
first few weeks, while she is mainly
anxious to be with her calf.
Low Wagons for Manure Drawing. '
It is heavy work pitching manure all
day, and is especially so If it has to be
done into a high wagon box. A low
truck wagon with box not higher than
the wheels of an ordinary wagon will
do the work of drawing manure much
betfet than will the wagons used for
marketing. Such a wagon almost any
farmer can have cheaply made, if he
has old wheels whose hubs are good,
but which cannot lie made strong
enough to bear up when long spokes
are used. The low wagon can be used
for years after tt is cut down for a
truck wagon. It will be nil the better,
however, if the outer rim is made
wider and is enclosed in a broad tire,
so that the wheel will not sink down
when going over the land.
The Boy of the Farm.
There's a hum of bees in the meadow,
Where the new-mown hay lies low,
There's a whetting of scythes in the dis
tance A musical, faint echo.
The warm, lazy airs of midsummer,
In waves of aroma creep,
Where stretched in the shade of a hay
cock,
Lies a barefoot boy, asleep.
Gay butterflies flit o'er the windrows,
In chime of the thistledown;
Spry grnsslKippers leap in the stubble,
And light on a stray hats crown;
And just on tle other side of the mound
With fraerant clover teeming.
Lips astain with the BtraVberry's blood,
Lies a barefoot boy, dtcnming.

To Fertilize House Plnpts. .
For house plants a mixture of one
pound of nitrate of potash and half a
pound of phosphate of lime, using a
tablespoonful of the mixture to a gallon
of water, will prove excellent. The
phosphate of lime should be as fine aa
powder, or a better mixture may be
used, consisting of one pound each of
phosphate of potash and nitrate of pot
ash. These articles may be obtained
in the crude form at any place where
chemicals ore sold.
Land Plaster on Potatoes.
The first application of Paris green to
potatoes to kill the potato liootlo should
lie with land plaster, A tablespoonful
to a half bushel of the plaster thorough
ly mixed will be strong enough. Not
only will the poison kill the potato
larvae, but tlie effect of the plaster will
be to make tlie vines grow stronger and
cause more copious dew on tho leaves,
which will destroy many potato beetles'
eggs-

The San Jose scale when it covers
the surface gives the bark a minutely
roughened, lncrusted nnd unhealthy
look, awl a dusty or dark grayish hue.
It can be distinguished from other
common scales by Its circular form,
smaller size, and the absence of eggs
beneath the scales. When the surface
Is rubbed with the finger, it has a
