K. RUBLI, NOVEMBER 19, 1875. CELL-Ji ACK. A little Pull-back sought one day The gntes of Paradise ; st. Frier w iped his spectacles And rublM*d bis ancient eyes. I \nd thr mgs <>f female angels came With curious gaze the while, Intent as ladies always are, To see the latest style. •Tied back in front ! Piled up behind ! ’Twill never do. I fear ! The thing is too ridiculous— You cannot enter here.” What did she do ? My curious friend, she got behind a tree ; And in a jiffy she was dressed As angels ought to be. St. Peter kissed her then, and said, “Pass in, my little dear ; But mind, you miisn’t introduce Such foolish fashions here.” • H uman S aliva F atal to S nakis . —The Marietta (<»a.) Journal was told by a gentleman the other day that hu man spittle was ¡is deadly to poisonous snakes ¡is their bites were deadly to man. He says, while picking up a bundle of straw and trash under bis arm, while cleaning the field, a ground rattlesnake, four feet long, crawled out of it and fell to the ground at his feet. He at once placed his heel upon the head of the snake and spit in its mouth. Shortly afterwards the snake showed signs of inactivity and sick ness, and he picked it up by its tail and carried it to the house and showed it to his wife, telling her he had spit in its mouth and that it was poisoned. At the expiration of fifteen minutes the snake was dead. To further ex periment, he came across a blowing adder (snake), which ejected from its mouth a yellowish liquid. lie caught it and spit in its mouth anti it died, lie caught another blowing, and it re fused to open it.'rmouth. lie spit upon a stick and rubbed it upon the adder’s nose and it died. Afterward he came across a black snake, regarded as not poisonous, and he caught it and spit in its mouth. Instead of the spittle killing the black snake, as it did the poisonous reptiles, it only made it stu pidly sick, from which it recovered. This conclusively shows that poisonous reptiles have as much to fear from the spittle of man as man has to fear from their bites. To C lean a R usty P low .—Take a quart of water and pour slowly into it half a pint of sulphuric acid. The mixture will become quite warm from chemical action, and this is the reason why the acid should be poured slowly into the water rather than the water into the acid, and let it remain on the iron till it evaporates. Then wash it again. The object is to give the acid time to dissolve the rust. Then wash with water and you will see where the worst spots are. Apply’ some more acid and rub on those spots with a brick. The acid and the scouring will remove most of the rust. Then wa8h the mold-board thoroughly with wa ter to Remove all the acid, and rub it dry. Brush it over with petroleum or other oil, and let it be till Spring. When you go to plowing, take a bottle of the acid water to the field with you anil apply it every l>out to any’ spot of rust that may remain. The acid and scouring of the earth will soon make it perfectly bright and smooth. If all iron-work be washed off with petro leum as soon as w*e put our tools, im plements and machines aside for the Winter, it will keep them from rust ing, and save a great deal of trouble and annoyance, to say nothing of de preciation and lass.— Colman's Rural World. D omestic E ducation .—The cele brated Scotch divine, Dr. Guthrie, was not only a great religious reformer, but was also an energetic worker In the temperance cause as well as other social reforms. Here are a few of his remarks respecting domestic educa tion : We have a great many things taught in our high schools now—physiology, philology, craniology, geology—and what the better is a girl for it when she becomes a tradesman’s wife? She cannot darn her stocking, bake her bread, hoii a potato, or light a fire. When I see a servant making two or three attempts to light a fire, I am tempted to say : “My good friend, let me try and do it for you.” I do not, remember, despise these ologies, but I am for stitchoiogy, bakeoiogy and boilology. O rigin oe the C oroner ’ s IN- quest .—A gentlewoman in London, having buried six husbands, found a 6uitor hardy enough to make her a wife once more. For several months their happiness was mutual ; a cir cumstance which seemed to pay no great compliment to the former oart- ners, who disgusted her, she said, by their drunkenness and infidelity.— With a view of ascertaining the real character of his mate, the gentleman began to absent himself, and returned at late hours in a state of apparent in toxication. Reproaches at first and menaces in succession, were the ef fects of his conduct. The gentleman persisted, and seemed to become daily more addicted to his vices. One eve ning, when she thought him senseless or asleep, "be unsewed a leaden weight from a fold in her gown, and having melted it, approached her husband to pour it into his ear. Convinced of her wickedness, the gentleman started up, seized her, and having procured assist ance, confined her till morning, when she was carried before a magistrate, who committed her to prison. The bodies of the six husbands were dug up, and as marks of violence were dis cernible upon the whole of them, she was brought to trial and convicted of murder. To these circumstances we are indebted to this most useful insti- tution.

Why is a pig like a tree ? Be cause he roots ; that is a conundrum. A pig has four leg’», one under each corner of his body. They pickle pig’s feet, but not until the pig is done us ing ’em. A pig squeals awful when it rains, also when you pull its tail. A pig has got a first rate voice for squealing, and he grunts when he feels good. You can’t make a whistle of a pig’s tall, ’cos it is crooked. Why is a pig like Tommy Grant ? ’Cos he’s got his nose in everybody’s business. That is another conundrum, which Is all I know about the pig.” C entennial N otes .—There will be between 150 and 200 buildings—a little city in itself, erected on the Centennial grounds.
