CORRECT PHYSICAL EDUCATION.
I am thankful for tho Interest tho Homo
Circle has taken In this subject for I fear it Is
by a great many uiidi-rmtvd bocauso it docs
not seem to tako hold on tho moral and eter
nal welbboing. Hut does it not? Aro wo not
placed In this world to work to advanco tho
canton! tltn KiMvomcr'i kingdom byrcalacr
vlco; to bo producers Instead of consumers,
thankfully adding our mito to the great sum
total of tho world's happiness! Can this bo
' ilono while tho mind is alworbed In nursing a
focblo and sickly body! Is it not the duty of
every ono who has children to mo every avail
able moans to incrcasu their knowledgo so
tlioy may be enabled to avoid thoso serious
."nistako that havo lievu mado through ignor
nnco air-icting not only the general health but
deteriorating thu tono of mind and morals in
, tho whole after life? It is considered mat
ter of course that tho child will grow accord
ing to constitutional tendencies and that so
much attention to rule of health will only
make tho subject of them whimsical and fas
tidious, yet by a duo regard of tho laws of
physical organization aro not evil constitution
al tendencies often checked, liko tho skillful
gardener watching over tho tender plant that
it may come up to a vigorous maturity? Tho
system from tho beginning is a complete sys
tem. If the bones and muscles aro kept con
stautly cramped in tho school-room without
proper exerclio in tho oeii air tliero cannot
' 1 harmonious growth of mind, body feeble
ncisatid enervation muttcoutetpicntly follow
ItU tho hopo of every Imrd-workim; mother
that her daughter may sco an easier life than
iahe has had. She is kept in school from, In
fancy to maturity, tho vacations Wing filled
with music leuon and fancy work until slio
becomes a fair and as frail as a ghost. She
now realize! that tho laws of nature are stern
and unrelenting and that it is only through a
careful regimen that slio can Ira recovered or
as it were rocreated and related from a pre
mature grave. Young persons cannot under
stand the danger of violating Nature's l.iws
until they feel tho penalty. It Is only meet
kaud right that mothers should search and see
like the skillful physician into the conditions
on which health and disease depend, or in-
. quire like Manoah of old, how shall we order
j tho child? instead of spending precious hours
studying fashion plates and consulting the
dressmaker, then wo might seo more Samsons

HORTICULTURAL.
This department has languished but wo in
tend after this to have each week something
of interest in this lino. Wo saw a lady quite
recently tryjvg to kill littlowhllo worms that
infested a box of sprouting tomato plants. A
weak tolutiou of limo water brought them to
tho surface immediately in a dying condition.
A very littlo cayenno pepper Is ricoiiitncndcd.
Earth that is to bo used In potting flowers
should bo baked to kill such parasites. Soot
from a chimney if applied in a liquid form will
have a wonderful cilect upon plants that aro
hopelessly deteriorated. It is lino for roses.
Cirliollo acid, ten drops to a pint ot water,
will alto kill white worms. Wo want somo
of our friends to try a sweet potato for foliago
in a hanging basket. No ono who is not fa
miliar with tho vino would suspect that it
was not a foreign pi ir.c. I'lauts need to bo
re-potted onco or twico n year. When tho
roots becomo matted they should Iks taken
out and the roots trimmed out, putting frrsli
earth carefully aliout the plants again. Cnrc
must lie taken that they aro not too soon ex
posed again to the light till the roots shall
havu had n chance to start again, n littlo
gravel or charcoal must bo put in tho bottom
of tho pot.
Cuttingi aro often e.tdly started in water.
Fill a small bottlo with waim water, remove
tho lower leaves (but tcavo a bud at tho Ikuo)
put in tho water and hang up by a string in
tho window and soon tho tiny routs will ap
pear. Oleanders, heliotropes, verbenas, roios
and fuchsias will start readily; as soon as the
roots aro an inch lout' they must Ira planted,
or, tlio bottle might bo filled with dirt ami
after a littlo break tho bottlo and plant, He
gouias are a foliago plant and are now much
thought of, wo propagate them, and its a sin
gular way to do, pick a leaf with a stm, put
it in a glsss of water so that tho leaf will rest
on tlio top of tho water; after a time, if kept
in a warm room, there will appear little, tiny
leaves from the center of the old leaf ami
roots will come from tho end of tlio stem and
from tho leaf too. It is interesting to watch
the process. They mutt Ira planted in soil af
ter tho leaves appear, or wo should lint fill
up tlio glM with soiL
Bmoked Mutton Hams.
Tho following wo givo to our readers, know,
ing that mutton hams aro very nice. Cros
used to put them up and smoke them, they
wero oven liettcr than venison ns they were
not so dry and hard. It makes a nice varie
ty to havo dried meat iu tho house, making
an excellent breakfast dish a littlo of the
meat goes a long way wo shave oirasthiu
as pnssib'e, cook for a moment In a littlo
water, thou add plenty of milk or cream, somo
butttr and Hour for tliiekenii.g. It should be
murcd over bread or biscuit, making a dainty
dish that ono can gctupquickly, A few cgu's
beaten up in tho gr ivy is nice. Somo frizzle
tho meat in a little butter first beforo making
tho groi cither way is delicious. Dried
beef is used iu this way and is an economical
way to uso up stalo bread, lor who ever saw
children who did not like Kr.ivy!
Choose fat young mutton. Hub it thor
oughly with a mixture iu the proportion of
ono part sugar to two of salt, and half an
ounco of saltpetre and tho same quantity of
black pepper to a pound of tho mixture.
I'laco tho meat iu a covered vessel and turn
and beat it twice a day for three consecutive
days. Tho fourth day wipe tho scum from
tho meat, wash it with strong vinegar, and
again rub It with the mixture. The day after
beat and turn it; repeat these alternate oper
ations for ten days, lieiiii careful to reiii'ive
tho scum licforo each rubbing, ami to turn the
meat every time. After this it mutt be
smoked for ten days. To Ira mod tho same
as smoked venikou or dried bref.
Tn pickle without smoking them, rub the
hams with a mixture of sugar, popper and
saltpetre, allowing four ounces of the former
and an ounco each of thu two latter to every
twelve pounds, and a pound and a quarter of
salt to tho' same quantity. After the meat is
thoroughly rubbed, cover It with the salt and
turn and neat It every day as beforo directed.
At tho end of a week add a tcscupful of vine
gar to the brine and coutinuo tho turning and
boating. Aftor three weeks take it from the
brine, wash It with fair water, then with
strong vinegar and hang up in a cool cellar for
a week or less according to the weathor. It
should lie soaked iu cold water about an hour
before boiling.
Au old cook look says that hams protected
by wrapping, can be kept packed in a barrel
full of charcoal broken pretty small, and even
claims that tainted meat cau bo restored,
However doubtful that last statement may
b, it seems quite possible that good meat can
be so kept for a few days in warm weather.
References ai to Responsibility.
The llritish Court of Appeals has just de
cided a point as general interest as to the re
sponsibility attaching to persons who per
mit reference to be made to them respecting
the financial position of others. The plain
tiff in the case had certain property to let,
and A wishing to become his tenant, gave 11
a a reference. On being applied to by the
plaintiff, II replied that he knew A to bo in a
good and reapoutible.positioii, and able to
meet the responsibility of the undertaking.
A, accordingly was accepted as a ten
ant, but a few months afterward he
left without paying any rent and taking the
futures with him. An action waa then
brought by the plaintiff against 11 for a false
and fraudulent representation as to his posi
tion, and iu the course of the case it transpir
ed that H, when he replied favorably aa to A's
position, had no actual knowledge a to the
means of the latter beyond this, that he lad
no more than 100, and had failed twice lra
fore. In these circumstances the Court of
Appeals, reversing the decision of Vice Chan
cellor ISacon, have held 11 liable for the loss
sustained by the plaintiff. On the part of 11
the Master of the 1 tolls said there
was, doubtless, no fraudulent Inten
tion in the sense of moral turpi
tude, but there waa legal fraud, which consist
ed not in the defendant's saying that he
believed the matter to bo true, or that he had
reason so to believe it, but in asserting positi
vely his knowledge of that which he did not
know. The defendant hail made an untrue
representation, and must accordingly suffer
for it.

HY CASTLES.
Domes and minarets and towers,
Turrets which can kiss the sky,
Grottos cool, and leafy bowers
Clad in buds that never die,
These and lieautics twico as fair,
Deck my castles In the air.
Flecks of clouds all bright and troldcn
Hover round their shadowy walls;
Strains and voices, sweet and olden,
Echo through thesn spectral halls,
Many an angel lingers where
Float my castles iu the air.
But when I approach them nearer
And their beauties fair would claip,
Neither moro distinct or clearer,
Ever they elude tuy grasp,
And I turn in sad despair
From my castles in the air.
OUR LETTER BOX
By limo means somu of tho letters this
week have n ilato which show that they ought
to have been printed beforo this, but it's better
lato than never. Anuiu is one wIiojo letter
has laid by so long, slio must writo again, for
she dues well for n little girl eight years old.
Another Annio twelvoyrars old writes from
thosanio place, a nlco letter too. Minnie
Longsaysit is her first lottcr, and we mutt
compliment her on It, and on tho way she
helps her mother. Amos beats all tho boys
for ho has been coon hunting, which must
havo lxn great fun for tho boys but not for
thr coons thoso eoons aro great rascals and
must bo killed, yet ono can't help but feel
sorry for them, they nro only trying to get a
living iu thclrownway. Hubywrites'acarcful,
neat letter and says slio feels that all tho lioy
ami girls who writo for this column aro almost
friends, which Is quite truo with us all. Wil
lie and Etta a brother and sister writo togeth
er and we think Willio must be a great com
fort to his mother by being so otteutivo to
her comfort. Etta has thrco quilts, which
shows industry in a girl eleven year old, then
cookiug dinner nil by herself on that dreadful
day, called wash day, when ovcrylrady feels
cross and tired. Fanny has plenty of pets,
she must tell us about "tlicir smartness some
day, for if one is observing animals will bo
found to exhibit much shrewdness and many
funny tricks which they seem to loirn by ex
perience and obxorviijjoii, sometimes showing
reasoning power. A little girl nwny off in
Illinois says sho has been enjoying all your
letters, and writes to tell you so. Mlunlo
May has a pet deer, besides many other, it is
to Ira hoi ed that she finds time to take good
cue of them all. KUiu tells how shu washes
dishoi. Wu I'iOiild not lis afraid to cat on
them if she keeps up to lior rule. "Mother"
always knows tho best niul nicest wny of do
ing the dishes and every little girl should Ira
willing to givo up her own way ami follow
mother's though it may Iran littlo moro troub
lesome Tliero is no ono thing that needs to
Ira dnno with cleanliness and caro than keep
ing tho dishes shining and clean, it is very
disagrecablo to handle greasy cups and plates
so they should always first bo washed in hot
soapy water then havo clear hot water poured
over them beforo wiping is' not nice to wipe
them out of soapy water. Mary writes n
short but nlco little letter and seem to have
tried to do it well. George tells how he helps
and does the chores for his mother, George
It, writes a splendid newsy letter and oilem
us au Indian pestlo which wu would value
very' much and we will provido somo way to
get it after a while.

and I polish tho spoons and wrench the glaS'

wash tho drying cloth and dish rag and put
them iu their place. Alter this is all done,
mania comes in to sco if every thing is all
right, and if not, wu have to put them iu

Tho strongest desiro of tho boy is to be

approach of varm weather.
The greatest annoyance of tho poor little
man is his past. How many grown men Imvc
been annoyed iu the same manner. Ho feels
deeply that trowser luvolvuubl'gations that
he mutt taku on new ways, new gesture; if
possible a new tone of voico. Ho even begin
to ape the way of his father, who perceiving
it, i not one whit displeased. He essays
masculine gestures, and this stiugglu Iwtweeii
his latent babyhood and his woud-lio man
hood gives him tho most comical air in tin
world. Ills petticoat follow him persistently
ami almost enrage him.

but Journsi,
Thu game law came iu force a few day ago,
making it puuishablu by lino to tako, pur-mo
or destroy the different kind of ducks.giouse,
pheasant and quails. Tho penalty is $3 for
each bird killed, and pot hunters and boys
should liesr in mind that there is a sport
men's club at this place, one ot whoso object
ia tho preservation of game during thu close
kosou. Any one detected violating the laws
will Ira prosecuted to tho full extent. Ducks
are all ready nestling, while grouse, pheasants
and quail will commence laying and Incubat
lug iutide of a couple of ,vcek, and hunter
should surely give the bird a abort rot of
four months to replete their yearly diminish
ing number. While this class of game liirds
need to Ira protected at thl season of the year,
thousand of wild geee aro (warming 011 the
newly sown grain fields, doing great hurt iu
pulling up the young plant and eating the
grain. Thev furnish good sport, at the same
time the linnter is benefitting the fanner.
The geese are in splendid order, a pair being
shot last week that tipped the beam at twenty
four pounds.
