This training ot the facu'ties in particular direc tions is carried to a marvellous ex treme by backwoodsmen, trappers, and men who guess the weight of animals. Perhaps the most remark able instances are the markers who leap from log to log at the mouth of a boom, standing on the log, and translating instantly an old mark into a new one, remembering what equivalent to give for each of a hundred marks, aud chopping it upon the log m the time that it floats its length. It is said that Thoreau knew the relative order of flowering of all the plants in the Concord woods, and knew the note of every bird, and a thousand out-of-the-way things besides. Hearth and Home. The Laundry. The sticking ot starched clothes to the smoothing iron is one of the most vexatious things with which the laundress has to contend. This is partly owing to the adulterations in the starch, for which there is no remedy but to obtain a good article. Starch gloss is used more to prevent this sticking than tor the glossy surface which it pretends to give. The latter is rare ly, if ever obtained in perfection without polishing iron and machin ery. So, dear ladies do not waste your time and strength in pursuit of it I learned this from a woman once employed in the laundry of a shirt and collar factory. She said also that the only gloss they used was hard soap. They shavt d it off aud boiled it up in the starch, and she used in her washing a piece as big as a nickel cent to a pint ot starch. She starched her wet clothes in this, dried them, and then if wanted very stir!', dampened them by dipping them into cold starch in which a little soap bad been dis solved, spread them between dry towels, rolled tight, for half an hour, and ironed smooth. I have long used this in various ways and find it always good I prefer white soap. It tne clonics are already stiff, f dampen by merely dipping them in soapy water Care of the iron lias mush to do with success. They should not lie permitted to stand on the stove to receive slops from the cooking When not in use they should lie kept in a dry place. If the face is once rust-eaten it is irretrievably injured. If rusted, however, rub them on emery or brown paper, but not on saltast-iis tends to more rust. Ileeswax may lie used freely at any time, rubbing on the hot face ot the iron, and then rubbing the iron thoroughly on cloth or brown jper. Some laun dresses always do this before put ting an iron to the starched surface. Home and Health, Diphtheria is a very troublesome and dangerous disease. A very easy remedy has lieen found for it that will effect a siieedy relief. Take a common tobacco pipe, place a live coal in the bowl, drop a little tar upon the coal, draw the smoke into the mouth, aud discharge it through the nostrils. Dr. Livingstone's age is 60. IiKllnn Tradition of the Orljft" of .Snlmoii. I Ulien (.'liareya made all tliinjr Mint I have breath, he fir-t made the Ishes In ' the liij; water, then I lie animals on the green laud, and the last of all. The j Man. But Chareyn did not, Jet the filie- come up the Klamath, and thiw : the Cahrocs had not. enough food, ami i were sore a -hungered. There were salmon in the big water many and ! very tine to eat hut no Indian could ( catch them in the big water, and i Chareya had made a great flsh-dain at j the mouth of the Klamath, and closed it fast, and giving the key to two hags to Keep, so that the salmon could not go up the river. And the lings kept the key that Chareva had given them, and watched It day nnd night, without sleeping, so that no Indian could come near It. Then the Cahrois were sore distressed in those dnvs for lack of food, and many died, and their chil dren cried to them lieranse tliev had no meat. But the eogntg befriended the Cahroos, and helped them, and took it on liiiii to bring the salmon up the Klamath. First, he went to an alder tree and gnawed off a piece of bark; tor tlie Iiark of the alder, after it is taken off. presently turns out ml and looks like salmon." He took the piece ot alder bark in his teeth, and journ eyed far down the Klamath, until he aime to the mouth of it, nt the bis water. Then he rapped at the door of the old hags' cabin, and, when they opened It lie Raid, Ahjnqvn," for he was very polite. And they did not wonder to hear the rajMe speak, for all of the animals could speak In those days. They did not suspect the edjpie, and so asked him to come into their cabin and sit by the Are. This he did : and after warming himself awhile, he commenced nibbling the piece of alder bark. One of the old hags, seeing this, said to the other, "See. he lias some salmon!" So they were deceived ami thrown off their guard ; and presently one of them rose, took down the key, and went to get some salmon to cook for themselves. Thus the coote saw where the key was kept ; but it was too high for him to reach it. The hags cooked some snlmqn for supper and ate it, hut they gave the coyote note. So he stayed In the cabin all night with the hags, pretending tc he asleep, but he was thinking how to get the key. He could think of no plan at all ; but. in the morning one of the hags took down Ihe key, and started to get some salmon again, and then the coyote hap pened to think of a way as quick as a flash. He jumped up and darted un der the hag which threw her down, and caused her to fling the key a long way off. The coyote quickly seized it in his teetli, and ran and opened the flsh-dam liefore the hags could catch him. Thus the salmon were allowed to go up the Klamath, and the Oahrocs had plenty of food. From Orer laml Monthly. Practical SoggcNtinits. The rain that falls on Hie roof of a barn will water Ihe cattle, inside. A smart woman with dry wood and soft water close at hatid, has her work half done. Green wood cannot be burned It is better to dry it by the heat of the sum mer tain, than in' the stove. Neighlwrhoods should combine and buy together a good portable horse iower. and then have their wood piles cut up with comfort and dispatch. Good house carpenters are very par ticular to have nice sharp tools. This Is half the secret of their close work and popularity. Many farmers would accomplish more and easier by better tools. Farmers soon run down that sell all their bay. Mr. Mechi. the great Eng lish filmier, prefers that his products should go to market on the toot. Those who house their carts and wagons in Kobln Hood's barn, all out of doors, are often seen traveling to the blacksmith and wheel right shops for repairs. The hubs of the wheels are made ot elm, which Is a poor tim ber to hear exposure. A harness kept well oiled is easier for the animal, is stronger, and don't wear out half so fast as one allowed to go year in and year out without . care. Clean the harness with a sponge and castile soap. Apply the oil witli an old paint brush. A long tin pan saves the drip. Every fanner who has paths to make about his premises, or the school house should own a good snow-plow. It is but little work to make one that, with a good horse before it. will do the work of twenty men. A bill is pending before the legisla ture of Indiana providing that, when ever an accused person is acquitted upon tlie plea of temporary insanity, ttie Court shall commit him to the lu natic asylum for the same number of years that he would have been con fined in the State's Prison had he been convicted, in cases of murder, this would be for life. This will, it it be comes the law, put an end to that kind of insanity which lasts only long enough to commit murder. HM The late Edwin Forrest left dia monds to the value of 10.000. Fred.
