and submitting to every pryation, bat that
her landlord had al length seized her furni-
ture Tor some months rent. which was due
him. The artist was much affected by this
simple recital. and inquired who was her
landlord. There he is replied the poor
woman, pointing to man who was watching
the progress Of the sale; and he was recog.
nized by the painter as a person who was
suspected Of having amassed considerable
fortune by usury, 50 that to make any appeal
to his feelings on behalf of the poor widow
would be useless. The artist was consider
ing with himself what other plan he could
adopt TO benefit her, when the crier an
nounced picture for sale. 1t was mser-
able daub, which in the summer the poor
woman had used to hide the hole ia the wall
through which the stove pipe passed during
the winter. II was put up at one franc. The
artist at once conceived a plan for taking
revenge on the landlord. He went over,
examined the picture with great attention,
and then called out with loud voice, One
hundred francs!!' The landlord was as.
founded at the bid, but conceiying that
picture for which so eminent an artist could
offer that sum was worth more than double,
boldly offered 200f. Five hundred said
the painter, and the contest between the two
bidders became SO animated that the prize
was at length knocked down to the landlord
at 2,2O0f.
The purchaser then addressing the pain
ter, said. In seeing an artist Of your merit
bid so eagerly for the picture, suppose that
il must be valuable. Now tell me, sir, at
what do you estimate its yaluef About
three francs and half. replied the painter;
but would not give that for it. You are
surely jesting,' said the landlord, for you
bid as high as 2,l0Of. for it, THAT is true,'
replied the artist, 'and will tell YOU why
did SO. You are in possession Of an income
Of 2o00Of. year, and have seized on the
furniture OF poor woman for debt Of 200f
! wished to give you lesson, and you fell
into my trap. Instead Of the poor woman
being your debter, she is now your creditor,
and fatter myself you will not compel her
to seize on your furniture for her debt
The artist then politely saluted the aston
ished landlord, and having announced her
good fortune to the poor woma n. walked

HEALTH OF ANIMALs-PREvENTIo BET.
TER THAN CURE.
Feed regularly, at stated times, never
stuffing at one time and starving at another,
and be particular not to overfeed. A fatten-
ing animal should have all he can eat and
50 digest as to have good appetite the next
time for feeding. If you can hit that point
precisely, you will be a perfect feeder; but
if you cannot it will be safer to fall a fraction
short than to 60 over.
Pure water should always be within their
reach, and 50 situated that they can approach
it without fear or peril. They should always
have salt al ibifum. A mixture of bone
dust and ashes may be advantageously
placed in separate trough. The instincts
Of the cattle will be a safe guide with re-
gard to the quantity required, except in case
Of salt when they have been long deprived
Of it, in which case the re-supply should be
gradual.
Regularity Of feeding, reasonable service,
and Kind care and protection when with
drawn from the yoke or harness. is the rule
for working animals. There may be times
when oyer-work would be profitable even at
the risk of the animals health, but with
those who lay their plans wisely this will
seldom happen; and as a general rule
reasonable amount Of labor, with good feed
and proper care. is more profitable than ex-
cessiye labor.
Let all changes Of food, as from hay to
grass, or from dry fodder to roots, be gradual.
1t is easier to keep animals in healthy
condition by proper attention TO food and
cleanliness at all times, and by special care
to avoid exposure after labor or when chang
ing their food, than to restore them after
becoming diseased. Plough, Loom and .fnra
