Well, Ingersoll wa> lecturing—l be
lieve it was in Milwaukee—and in his
lecture he came to this assertion, aud
I while ho leotured there wcro standing
,l bp in the CArfter of the plutforni three
'■ or four drunken men standing there
talking in .111 undcrtono. That crowd
!l , felt like they ought to take the aincn

lS about any follow is who takes the auieu

s ru I: 'up and taken the Amen corners
u)on hi And while Hub was lecturing,
e when he reaelie l tbe assertion. " I here
h; ii no belt, aud I can prove if. to any
ls reasonable man," he got the attention
is lof that crowd, "f course. They wee
e ; interested at this point, and one of them
'I | straightened himself up and staggered
I" > up to Bub and put his hands on his
d I shoulder and said, "Can you Bob !"
u j lie said, "Yes, 1 can." "Well," the
'■ j fellow says, "do it Bob aud make it

" that nine-tenths of us poor fellows in

Godcy's Lady's Book gives some good
is advice in making ono dollar do the work
>s t of two. Iu the first place, it 'idvisca
- to havo as few clothes as it is possible
0; to get along with. The second is to
c i take the very greatest cure of what you
0 j have. Never buy any thing but good
k | materials. Never turn a dress inside
out when it, is put away. It creases and
- spoils the trimmings. Dresses should
be kept iu bags which button down the
t front, so that the folks are not diti.i'ran
-1 god iu putting tin 111 in. Blue paper is
s ! the best preservation for white gowns.
- ! Bodies should bo laid down flat , on
; ! .'leevcs the bows suited out with paper,
s if they arc used for trimming, and each
r ' bodies kept from dust. Furs should
1 bo well beaten, taken out from time,
, covered with insects powder and sewn
|in a holland bag. Boxes for evening
; dresses should be the length of the skirt
u and furnish with a couple of hooks, so
e ; that if set on cud they form a sort of
h hanging wardrobe. Summer wash fu
d Inics smoothed out and folded after
d wearing, will last longer and fresher
i, than whet, they are hung up, and will
11 ; not become so dingy. If throwu down
IJ carelessly whon taken off they will soon
j lose their freshieu.

0()t)D SUGGESTIONS.
We hope the good crops of this year
may not cause any of our faruie. s to
neglect preparations for next year's
crops. These should the more eneour
-1 age all to provide for larger grass and
1 clever crops. Our people cannot raise
too much grass. In the raising, they
1 are not only addingto their money re
sources, but benefiting thoir iand. If
a man got twelve bushels per aero this
1 yeai, by eaily prepaiationuud judgment,
| he ought to expect at least twelve busb
i els per acre next year. This is tlio
. way to make farming pay iu this eoun-
J tiy. Do uot try 10 cultivate more land
I J than you cultivated this year, but try
I i to so cultivate the same quantity as to
get double the yield next year Early
j and thorough preparation and good
I I seeds well seeded, will go far towards
J accomplishing this. Food orops, to
j turn under in the green state, are iuval
-1 uablc. — Ventral E.rprt.ii.
