Tm golne to try.' And try I did, and I'll tell you how I went to work. Jist as old Ben was sittin' down to din ner, at one o'clock, I rushed up to the house at a liigb-pressure paco, red-hot in the face, with my coatMails in the air, and my eyes rolling ubout like billiard-balls ! in convulsions KAt-a-tat-tat- ding-a-ling aliug ; I kicked up an awful rumpus, ami in a flash eout came old Ben himself. I had struck the right mink. Ue had a napkiu under his chin, and carvin' knife in his band. I smelt the dm tier as he opened the door. '0, Mr. Merkins,' said f, 'I'm tarnation glad to see you. I feared you moughu't be at home I'm almost eout of breath. I'm come to" tell you I can save you a thousand dollars!' 'A thousand dollars 1' roared the old man, and I defy a weasel to go through a crack any tiuicker thari his face burst into smiles. Oue thousand dollars ! Yon don't say so ! du tell !' 'Oh,' said I, '1 see you are just bavin dinner neow. I'll go au' diue wysolf, an' then I'll come back an' tell you all about it.' 'Nonsense,' said he ; 'don't go away ; come in and sit down and enjoy yourself, like a good fellow, and have a snack with me. I am anxious to hear what you have to say.' I pretended to decline, say in' I'd come back : but I'd thoroughly mured up the old chap's curiosity,' an' it ended hy hi j fairly pullin' me into the house, an 1 made a iattlin' dinner of pork and beans. I managed for some time to dodge the main p'nt of his inquiry. At last I fin ished eating, au' tfiere was no further ex cuse for delay ; besides old Ben was get ting fidgety. 'Come, neow,' said he, 'no more preface. 'About that thousand dollars ; come, now, let it --out.' , 'Well, I'll tell you what It is,' said I ; 'yon have a darter, Misery Ann, to dis pose of in marriage, have you not r 'What's that got to do with it V inter rupted he. 'Hold your proud steeds don't run off the track a great deal to do with it,' said I. 'Neow, answer my question.' Well,' said he, I hare;' ' . 'An' you intend, when she marries, to give her 910,000 for a portion.' 'I do,' he said. 'Well, neow here's the pint I'm coming to. Let me hare her, an' I'll take her with $9,000 ; and t9,000 from $10,000, according to simple addition, just leaves oiie an' that will be dean profit saved as slick as a whistle !' The next thing I knew there was a rapid interview goin' on between old Ben's foot an' my coat-tails aa' I am inclined to think the latter got the worst of it. . .

People often abase their instruments, and then blame the manufacturers and parties from whom they purchase for selling them for what they are pleased to term "trashy thing." I waa sent fur recently to exam ine a piano that the owner said he bad purchased In Cincinnati, of Messrs. Smith 6c Nixon, and which was represented by them at being one of the finest instru ments in the world. I asked him what the trouble waa. He said It was all trou m The keyt all would stick when pressed down ; and the wires and the tuniug pins were covesed with rust, and it rattled and jarred more than a horse fiddle. When 1 reached hi residence aad examined bis instrument, I found it to be one of Stein war's Square Grands. He had placed the piano against the outside wall of the room, and bad kept it closed aad no fir in the room tor the period of one year, (his daughter for whom he had purchased absent . ) The jam ng horse-fiddle sound he complained of was caused by a silver table spoon ou the sounding board. Was Messrs. Stein way & Sons or Smith A Nixon to blame for the condition in which I found his instrument f I think not, and all intelligent and fatr-mmded pei sons will agree with me. Had tba gentlnman known how to take care of hia instrument and knowing, done it he would doubtless havo found his instru ment in as perfect order at when it left the ware-roomt of the manufacturers.

Keep it in tuue, aud have it tuned ouly by a competent tuner; and never allow it below concert pitch, (unless the piano is an old one, in which case it probably would not bear tbe strain upon it.) It should be tuned, at the very least, three timet iu tbe lust year, after that, whenever it requires it. Dampness is its most dangerous enemy, canting rhi strings and turning pins to rust, the cloth used in tho construction of the keys to swell, whereby the action will move sluggishly and often stick entirely. The best pianos, made of the most thor oughly seasoned wood, are the ones that are most effected by dampness, the ab sorption being greater. hen tbe tone of the piano becomes "ninty," it is caused by tin- fell on the hammers becoming hard by constant use, and may be remedied by a procesa called "picking up," but should! not be attempted by any but a competent fierion. Any bard substi nee, uo matter iow small, dropped on tbe sounding board, will cause the piano to have t jar ring sound. The piano should at all timet be protected by a good rubber cover. You should place a piece of camphor, wiapped in soft paper, in one of the inside corners to protect tbe felt from the depre dation of moths rene wing the camphor every three months.

Chateaubrand gives a fanciful but an agreeable rcasou for the fact that Jewish women are so much handsomer than the men of their nation. He says Jewesses have escaped tbe curse which alighted up on their fathers, husbands and sons. Not a Jewess was to be seen among tbe crowd of priests and rabble who intuited the Son of God, scourged Him, crowned Him with thorns, and subjected Him to infa my and the agony of tho cross. The wo men of Judea believed in the Savior, aud assisted and soothed Him under affliction. A woman of Bethany poured ou his head precious ointment, which she kept in a vaae of alabaster. The sinner annointed his feet with perfumed oil and wiped them with her Iiair. Christ on his part extend ed mercy to the Jewesses. He raised from the dead the son ol the widow of Nain, and Martha's brother Lazarus.

T. -Busty, Lancaster, O., writes the Ohio Farmer that he had known hogs said to have this disease, dissected, and the stomach, bow els and livers found to be full of worms three and four inches long, the ends of them being pointed and sharp, and of a hard, rough, wiry appearance. Ia oae instance the cavity of the gall wat crow ded full of these worms. Hit Poland pigt were attacked with cholera. Caught the pigs, placed on their backs one boy holding legs and the other the ears and gave each pig a tablespoonful of toft soap morning and evening for three days. The second day he observed in their droppings long stringy substances, which he found to be the skins of what he supposed to be worms, which was proof to him the soap had the desired effect. He also put toft soap into the swill fed hit other hogt, which hat improved their appearance very much. 4t".T a How to Bold the Fertility of Ike Soft. Gypsum attracts. It It not only a ma. nure In itself, but it attracts the manure from the atmosphere thai comes in contact with it (which it abundant on windy days); but it catches and holdt the fertil ity of the ground that in some soils es capes. Lime will also do this so will clay. Clay, dried aad powdered, ia aa excellent thing to put on a barn-yard, or to cover a compost beap with, or work through the hedp ; hence we use gypsum and lime on our stables and privies. Gyp sum it best ; it has the most attraction, besides other properties. A little should be kept by every farmer for use, even at a high cost, as the benefit is sometimes more important than the high price. But we waste manure. We no. ouly permit its strength to escape, bat we are glad to get it out of the way. . The same reck lessness extends to the land. It is well our soil bat a good proportion of clay to hold its strength. We must converse. The time is not tar distant when we shall be compelled to do it. Already there are aymptoma of lack in ear soil ; we do not raise at heavy crops aa we use to here and there a field, here and there a farm is lest productive. It Is not" so much that we need plaster here in the West to hold the strength of the toil as to ate it to ab stract it from the atmosphere, and to save the ammonia of our barn yards and sta bles. For this let at always keep a lit tle on ha ad, Lotus save aad improve our manure, and thus save our farms. Coiman's Rural World, t Lice on Hog. In ans wer to a recent inquiry for a remedy for lice on hogt, al low me to say that I have had an experi ence of twelve years with breed hog. The pott five yean I have used the fol lowing, which will clean off the Nee in two dayt : Put about one gill tf1 fcHi'' semi Oil into an old dhth and wlthenatwt brush or old woo lea rag tab the oil ap and down the back of the animal and be hind the fore leg and on the flank. Be particular about the last two placet, for R is where, toe lice deposit their eggs, which, it not destroyed will hatch out in about five dayt. If it be a black beg, these eggs can be plainly seen, being a boat the size of timothy seed and lying clbso to the skin fait to the hair ; no one need fear to uie the oil freely, aa it will not injure the hog in tho least. Hot water will not kill these lice, for I have seen them crawl after the hog had been scalded in a barrel after being butchered. R. Woodruff, in Rural New l orker. at 1 Thirty Cextukiks li.
