| ‘the Art of Dunning.

| As some dealers will persist in giving credit, it is important that they should know Low to ‘‘dun” with success. The following rules have been laid down by a business man of experience tc the re- porter of aN. Y. morning paper; aud they will repay careful study :—

| (1) Never givethe idea that you call be-

cause you happened to be in the neighbor- hood.

(2) Never plead that you are in absolute ‘need of the money.

(3) Never explain why you want the -meney further than some general phase, as

“to meet outstanding bills.” The debtor ‘is usually an expert in showing a man how ‘he can get along without money. He will ‘worst you in argument, and if you lose | your temper it isan excuse te him why he |Should not pay. | (4) Always be civil, however businesslike and importunate you may deem it necessary | to be.

(5) Never think you have done wrong be- cause a debtor gets angry. His anger, under civil treatment, shows that he does not in- ltend te pay. This you might as well know | early as late. © | (6) Show quite as firm aresolution to get | the money on your tenth call as on any pre- vious one, or else it would have been better if you had not made it. | (7) Never leave a debtor witheut his set- | ting a time when he thinks he can pay, and never fail to be en hand at the time set. | (8) As between yourself and an employes, \let the most businesslike of the two make

(9) Suggest instalments. Shame the | debter into making an arrangement to pay isomething every week or every month. i 1f not $10, then $5, or $3, or $1. It will convince him that you have set to work in earnest to get the nioney.

(10) If a debtor gets angry a good effect may be produced by saying you intend to place the bill in the hands of a lawyer, particuJarly if you mention a lawyer whom he hates or who has a reputation for harassing debtors. Professional debtors, however, become careless about legal pro- cesses.

(11) Drop into a debtor’s faverite haunts. It will make him very uneasy, especially if you don’t hesitate to ask him politely but plumply, for your money on occasion. ‘This may often happen after he has dis- played a roll of bills...

Food for Fowls.

A little corn fed daily is good, as it keeps fowls warm and healthy, and as is the case with butchers’ scraps, will make them lay some eggs, but the latter will not be of the fixest flavor. The best egg-producing food is claimed by some to be five parts of bran with one of mid- dlings, which in the morning should be wet with scalding water, or far better, with skim-milk, say about four quarts of the mixture, taking pains to have it rather dry, though all damp. If the fowls don't incline to eat at first, sprinkle a little Indian meal over the top. Be careful not to mix more than they will consume during the day, and at night give them their shelled corn or wheat screenings well scattered, so that all will get some, Perhaps the milk, scraps of meat, bread, etc., often fed to a pig,

production. Hens should not be kept longer than three years. Onions, chopped tine and mixed with Indian meal, have a beneficial effect. Meat is an essential ‘food for poultry, especially in winter, when they cannot get worms that may be picked up in summer. The habit of giving much food in a short space of time is a bad one. In their natural con- dition the process of picking up their food is a very slew one,

Cross Breeding.

-

For many years past, in the mountain districts of Cumberland, Westmoreland, and northern Lancashire, where the Mountain sheep-runs are very extensive, the Leicester rams have been used for crossing ; but during the past tew years Shropshire rams have come into use, and the farmers claim that, by their use, they can get earlier maturity and heavier weights on the lambs. Whether the change frem Leicester to Shropshire ulti- mately proves beneficial, there can be no doubt in one thing, that the Shrop- shire, at present, finds much favor, and at all the northern district agricultural ‘shows special classes for thia breed of sheep have been provided. English farmers say: If wanted for fatting lambs, use the Shropshire ram; if wanted for keeping lambs, use the Leicester.

Tux following pretty little story is told of President Garfield’s school days : There was a spelling match in the little log cabin school house where James went to school. The teacher told her scholars that if they whis- pered she would send them home. During the spelling James whispered to the boy next him how to epell a word. His teacher saw him ard said, ‘‘ James, you know the rule. You must go home.” James took up his hat and left. Pretty soon he came back and took his place in the clasz. ‘‘ Why, how is this? I told you to gohome.” “1 know it,” said James; “and 1 went home.”

| CORRESPONDENCE,

We do not hold ourselves responsible for the opinions or statements of our correspondents.

Ve the Editor of the Examiner,

Six,— Will your correspondent ‘‘ Jack,” of Uigg, or any other 6f your readers who was present at Mr. Murdoch’s lecwre, kindly mention which of Rob Donn’s songs was said to have been so praised by Pro- fessor Blackie, of Edinburgh? .

Though a warm admirer of the Bard of Lord Reay’s Country, I fear the remark in question, — viz:

“There was more wit and wisdom in that ene song than in all Greek literature,” like some others of Mr. Murdoch’s reported utterances, will require to be taken with a considerable pinch of salt. Professer Blackie is perhaps as good a Gelic scholar as he is an undoubted authority on Greek ; but though he is no less well known for the eccentricity, vigour, and—well, rash- ness of his assertions, Ido not think he is capable of such unqualified “‘ bosh” as Mr. Murdoch would make out.

Rob Donn’s poems, like the language in which they are written, may safely rest on their own merits without hyperbolical praise. We may consider with Mr. Skene Scotland’s ‘‘ dialect of the common Gaelic tongue not undeserving of the attention of philologers ;” bat we will require stronger evidence than that of the late Lauchlin Mc- Lean, or Mr. John Murdoch either, before we believe that it was spoken in Paradise, or the Garden of Eden was situated in the Island of Mull !?

I do not call in question the taste of these Charlottetown gentlemen in establiching a branch of an association which has just beea proclaimed illegal ; but it weuld be inter- esting lo know by whose authority Mz. John Murdoch,of the Inverness Highlander, advocates the principles and organises branches of the Irish Land League. Does he, in short, represent any person but him- self? That he does this, to some extent, at least, and can look after No. 1 and “‘ the bawbees ” may be inferred from ‘ Jack,” of Uigg’s statement, that ‘ quite a few sub- scribed for the Highlandsr.”

Oanada has some reason to fight shy of self-accredited philanthropists and adven- turers—whether in kilts or coronets.

Farmer Gruff and his Boys.

CARSON.

Old farmer Groff was one morning tugging away with all his might and main-at a barr bof apples which he was endeavoring to get up the cellar stairs, and calling at the top of his lungs for one of his boys to lend him a helping hand, but in vain. When he had, after an in- definite amount of swearing and pufling, accomplished his task, aud just when they were not needed, of course the boys made their appearance. * Where have you been, and what have you been about, I'd like to know, that you could not hear me call?’ inguired the father in an angry tone, and addressing the eldest. ‘Out in the shop settin’ the saw,’ replied the youth. ‘ And you, Dick?’ ‘ Out in the barn settin’ the hen.’ ‘* And you, sir ?’ ‘Up in granny’s room settin’ the clock.’ ‘Aud you, young man?’ ‘Up in the garrett settin’ the trap.” And now, mas- ter Fred, where were you and what were you settin’?” asked the old farmer of ‘his youngest projeny, the asperity of his temper being somewhat softened by this amusing category of answers, ‘come let’s hear.’ ‘On the door step, settin’ still,’ replied the young hopeltul seriously.
