A Clerical Wood Sawyer.
A Hull Fight In Tesas.
Dr. Pecehcr depended upon constant
manual labor lor keeping up his own
7 health ; and in Roston, where he "could
not enjoy the luxury f a garden to dig
i in, he was often puzzled to find means to
keen hiinselt in irood wnrkuc or.ter. i
- - -1
The consequence was that he saw CM ail
the wood lor his own larj;o family, and
often fir.diiig that too little, would heg
the privile of sawing at the wood pile
of a neighbor. He w.-s fastidious in the
care of his wood saw having it always at
hand in his study, halt concealed am. mi
BiiriUtCS of councils, magazine "ai tides
and sermons, and the setjfy;? f his saw
wasloften duly accomplished while he
settled nice points of theology with his
boys, or took counsel with his brother
ministers. Looking out of hi.?" study

was reduced to a discouraging state of
order every stick sawed and .split he
" saw," with envy, the pile f ld V. in the
4 street. Fortwith he seized his saw, an 1
soon the old sawyer of the street beheld
a man, without a cravat, and in his- shirt
6leeve, issuing from Dr. IJeccher's house.
who came briskly up and asked if he
wanted a hand at his pile; and forthwith I
Trent to work with a right good will, and
60on proved to his brother sawyer that he
wa no mean hand at the craft.
v Nodding his head significantly at the
opposite house, V. said, '"You live there?
Work for the old man?" "Yes." ' What
sort'oFan old fellow is he?" "Oh, pretty
much like the rest of us. Good man
enough to work for." '-Tough old chap,
aint he?" "Guess so, to them that try to
chaw him up."
So the conversation went on, till the
wood went so fast with the. new comer
that VV. exclaimed, '-first rate saw that
of your'n." This touched the doctor in
a -tender point, lie had set that s:iw as
carefully as, the articles of his creed;
& every tooth was critically adjusted, and
eq he gave a smile of triumph. -I say."
said W.j "where can I get a saw like
that?" "I don't know unless you bny
niine." "Yi!l you trade? What do you
ask" "I don't know. I'll think about
it. Call at the house to-morrow and I'll
tell you.''' s
t The next day the old man knocked,
and met the doctor at the' door, fresh
from ihc hands of his wife, with his coat
brushep and cravat tied, going out on
pastil duty.
"VV. gave a start of surprise. '"Oh,"
said the doctor, "you're the man that
wanted to buy my saw. Well, you .-hail
have it for nothing only let is'e have
some of youp wood to saw when you -work

dinner time, without orders he entered

When ' the dish appeared, he bent down

horns were Sung .and keen, they were wide
and thus he had me fastened down his
horns sticking into the earth o:i cither side
of me. I se zed his horns, as the only

Now the struggle commenced in earn

Kc3-e's early tomato, soinudi praised last

10th, Keyes, April 10th; both ripened on
August 10th! Mr. Keyes claims his to
matoes to be thirty days earlier than the
Tilden, and we can testify to the truth
of Ills claims. This year, we planted the
three kinds the same day, and can fully
test their merits. Keyes's tomato has no
bad odor to its leaves and ripens its
fruit near the ground, and within a few
weeks' time. Tilden's tomato is also far
better worth cultivating than the common
kinds. It is large, smoor h, well flavored.

How to Make Shi.ncles Last.
Shingles that are painted will last much
longer than when put on in the usual
way. Some advise the use of tar, either
dipping in tar before using, or tarring
the upper end of the shingles after each
course is laid. Mr. Emerson, of Hollis,
Massachusetts, says, in a communication
to the New England Farmer, that
shingles laid in whitewash will last twice
as long as if they had not been treated
with the lime. II is plan is sometimes
to soak su ingles in thin whitewash made
with brine instead of clear water. At
other times he laid his shingles in white
wash. When this last course is adopted,
he lines each course of shingles, as laid,
with red chalk, then whitewash the last
course laid down to the line, ;i:id after
the builJing is shitih.-d the whole roof is
whitewashed. He speaks of a nmf cov
ere 1 with sappy and shaky shingles that
had lasted twenty cirs, ami would last
several years longer. In nailing, he puts
the nails about two incites apart, :md
does not drive them down, but leaves -the
heads out so as to keep-up the bats nf
the next row of shingles to allow a cir
culation of air.

in which bran has been stirred at the rati'
