I went the other eveniug,
To hear a Dr. Splurge,
Who told us what to pray for,
And how we ought to urge.
So many things he told us,
For which we ought to pray,
tfh;t I forgot theai every one,
ivcgot ibew sLrifght-a-way.
Pat when he read a text ah !
One word of which was " Grace."
That pet name of my Darling,
Brought sunshine to my face
Perhaps? I was too partial,
For if the truth was known,
I wanted but one blessing,
And prayed for " Grace alone.
In the tumult of my feelings
I sunk into a doze,
Cut was wakened in a horrid state,
Just ere the sermon's close.
He read another passage,
I'd rather been left out,
Of prayers that is'nt answered,
And how it comes about ;
Good Gracious ! Aint it awful,
To hear in drawling tone,
Words, that claw you like a catamount,
Or drop on you like a stone.
I knew that I was busied
I felt the wild-cats claQ,
I'll tell you what I heard first,
Then tell you what I saw.
No matter for the chapter,
The sense of it, was this,
" Some ask, but are not answered,
" Because, they ask, A Jiss."
Thunder ! Then I saw my rival,
Grinning fondly with delight,
Standing by my Gracie Darling,
She was dressed in blessed white ;
And not to harrow my deeply
Plowed feelings any further,
They was mar-ri-ed, that night.

Specific Heat of Soils. I'fraun
der, in his investigations concerning
the specific heat of soils, during
which he determined that of 17 dif
ferent soils; he has noticed that soils
free from humus have the lowest
specific heat, w hether they consist of
lime or of saud. The richer a soil in
humus the higher is the specific heat.
Thus peat was lour.d to have 0.507.
and a soil very rich iu humus gave
0,4142; while that of calcite and
quartz is only 20 and 19. Loamy
soils must have a high specific heat,
owing to the presence of water.
These facts ar? important to the ag
riculturist, since a plant sensitive to
i!u- eh u ges of temperature would
siot grow well on soils of low specific
heal.

Ccue for Bleedixg Warts ox
Horses. Mr. F. Learning, in the
Country Gentleman, gives the follow
ing method of curing warts on
horses; Ten years ago I had a horse
with near twenty warts, varying in
size from a plum to a man's fisi.
Everythiug said to bo useful in such
cases was tried in vain. The hurso
had become almost unmanageable
from the l&e of hot irons, acids, solid
caustics, strings, &c, &c, when it
occurred to try Cinqunin's butter of
zinc, a remedy he thought useful in
cancer of man. I prepared a strong
solution of it as below described, and
, found the horse did not object to its
application, being the first applica
tion he had not resisted. In a few
weeks the horse was entirely well,
and now for ten years has had no re-
tu-n of them. Moreover many of
my neighbors have used the same
remedy since, and always with en
tire success. Put four ounces of mu
riatic acid iu a half pint bottle, add
gradually scraps of clean zinc, until
effervescence ceases. Of this pour out
sufficient to wet the wart thoroughly,
and epply with a small swab until
the cure is complete.
To Keep Insects Away frcji
Trees.- As the time of budding and
blossoming approaches remember the
following simple means of preserving
trees from the ravages of insects,
which was first published at Lyons
by the Imperial Society of Practical
Horticulture of the llhone. The
mischief done by insects whose eggs
are deposited in buds and blossoms
is almost incredible. The remedy is
to mix one part of vinegar with nine
parts of water, and shower it from a
syringe or fine rosed watering-pot
over the trees, plauts or flowers re
quiring protection. The experiments
made in this way inhe neighborhood
of Lyons have proved eminently suc
cessful, the trees so treated havin"
I ' m loaded with fruit, while others
Mtd been let alone bore very
; v . In preparing the solution,
vwuid be well to remember that as
-c iesicb vinegar is much stronger than
oglb, tbo quantity of the latter
should be inc. eased. Another use
ful remedy for preventing ants and
other insects from crawling up the
stems of trees, is to expose lamp oil
for three or four days to the sun until
H becomes thick and gummy, and
smells disagreeably, then to use it as
Pmt with a small brush, and draw a
bHt round the stems of the trees
about two indies wide, and two feet
tro.a tue ground. A fresh coat
will .fr ,.. ' OUil5 H

The best way to fight insects is

The Board of Health of St. Paul,

In Florida, a dairy of 40 cows

On rainy days make hives for

Horticulture and farming never

Some English farmers feed each

Just previous to the breaking out

the expiration of two years, the
wear was decidedly in favor of the

A Card From. The
American Watch Company
Of Waliham, Mass.
npillS COMPANY BEG LEAVE TO IN
JL form the public that they com
menced operations in 1850. and their factory
now covers four acres of ground, and has
cost more than a million dollars, and cm
plovs over 700 operatives. Tkey produce
75,000 Watches a year, and make and sell
not less than one half of all the watches sold
in the United States.
The difference between their manufacture
and the European, is briefly this : European
Watches are made almost entirely hy luind,
and the result is of necessity a lack of that
uniformity, which is indispensable to correct
time-keeping. Both the eye and the hand
of the most skillful operative must vary.
But it is a fact that, except watches of the
higher grades, European watches are the
product of the cheapest labor of Switzer
land, and the result is the worthless Ancres,
Lepines and so called Patent Leverswhich
soon cost more in attempted repairs, than
their original price. Common workmen,
boys and women, buy the rough separate
parts of these watches from various facto
ries, polish and put them together, and take
them to the nearest watch merchant, who
stamps and engraves them with any name
or bfaud that may be ordered.
How American, Watches are Made.
The American Waltham Watch is made
by no such uncertain process and by no
such incompetent workmen. All the Com
pany's operations, from the reception of the
raw materials to the completion of the
Watch, are carried on under one roof, and
under one skillful and competent direction.
But the great distinguishing feature of their
Watches, is the fact "that their several parts
are all made by the finest, the most perfect
and delicate machinery ever brought to the
aid of human industry. Every one of the
more than a hundred parts of every watch is
made by a machine that infallibly repro
duces every succeeding part with the most
unvarying accuracy. It was only necessary
to make one perfect watch of any particular
style and then to adjust the hundred man-
chines necessary to reproduce every part of
tnat waicn, ana it iouows that every suc
ceeding watch must be like it.
The Company respectfully submit their
watches on. their merits only. They claim
to make
A Belter Article for the Money
by their improved mechanical processes
than can be made under the old-fashioned
handicraft system. They manufacture eveiy
grade of watches, from a good, low priced
aud substantial article in solid silver hmitng
ca?es, to the finest chronometer and also
ladies' watches in plain gold or the finest en
ameled and jeweled cases ; but the indispen
sable requisite of all their watches is that
they shall be good time keepers. It should
be remembered that. except their single low
est grade named "Home Watch Company,
Boston," all watches made by them are fully
warranted by a special certificate, and this
warrantee is good at all times against the
Company or its agents.
