Women and Work.

Gail Hamilton believes that women
have the same rights ds men, to obtain
a livelihood as preachers or public
speakers, hut no exclusir privileges be-
cause of their sex. This is what she
says in recent article in the independent:
The point we are up in arms about is
not whether women are pretty and
graceful and attractive. They have al
ways been ard always will be ackno vi
edged that. Not even a pulpit or
platform can make beauty unlovely or
grace upcouth but certainly the pulpit
and platform are not necessary to female
loveliness. Women are not breaking
out in public for the sake of showing
how fair they are. 1t is presumably be-
cause they have something to say so inn
portant, so irrepressible, that the old
channels of communication are INSULT
cient, and it is worth while to break
through all the prejudices and customs
that hedge her in, and say her say in
cavalier fashion. Or she does it for the
simple and honest purpose of getting
living. So far as that is her motive | do
not quarrel with her. But when woman
comes before you inspired with grand
purpose, demanding great opportunities,
advocating a great cause. and employs
reasoning and rhetoric that are good for
nothing but to furnish fallaces and in
felcities to the logic class in a girls
school, the woman cause has not gained,
it has lost. No woman has gained any
thing for that cause so long as allowance
has to be made for her as woman.
Except so far as she works for living,
she does not Justify herself for taking
hold of mems work unless she does the
work better than men. am not in the
least degree exalted or exhilerated by
hearing a woman preach unless she
breaches so powerfully that forget she
is a woman. lf we are to have pressing
and platitudes, what care to which sex
the platitudinarian belongs? There is
no legal disability that ] know of. Moth.

the pole is, of course, closed up with
rails or boards. For stock that is to be
fed with grain, feed boxes are either
placed loose on the floor, or may be fas-
tened to the top of the hitching pole in
some secure way. The stall floors should
be made to slope back from the gang
way, to a shallow ditch behind, which
would keep the stalls dry. Floors may
be put in or not, as may be preferred.
We think it pays to put in good floors,
in back half of the stall at least.
For cattle we prefer to have stanch-
ions in place of tying with rope, as they
are kept much more quiet, and are, we
think, just as comfortable as by any
other mode of fastening.
ave have now given a plan for build
ing stable complete, at cost, all told,
of not more than hundred dollars,
which will accommodate thirty head OF
stock, and will last, if we'll put up, for a
dozen years, when it will probably need
new roof; if the roof has been we'll
put on it won't need one sooner.
AS we said before, this stable will
not cost over about a hundred dollars,
and will be as comfortable, and the
stock will like it just as well as though
it had cost ten times that sum, and if
any farmer who believes in having no
stables will put up and use one of these
for couple of winters, and then con-
clude it don't pay for the trouble, we
want to see him, for he would be a Curl
osity to see"

Home Instincts of Animals.

The instinct which enables the carrier
pigeon to find his way home is also
shared by other animals. A writer in
the London Daily Ncacs says:
"A subject that has long had a deep
interest for naturalists is the power pos
sessed by birds and animals of finding
their way back TO given spot by road
never before travelled by them. There
seems to be no doubt that Providence
has bestowed an instinct upon them
which we, do not possess it, are hardly
able to comprehend. Birds of passage
find their way by means of the unerring
guide to the remotest regions of the
earth, and seem to prefer travelling by
night, as the keepers of lighthouses are
well aware, inasmuch as they frequently
find woodcocks and other birds lying
dead under the windows. having been
killed by flying against the thick plate
glass, attracted like moths, by the
light.
The same faculty exists in various
domestic animals, but is not so strongly
developed as in birds. A horse belong
ing to friend of mine was turned out
in some marshes adjoining the Thames.
The distance in straight line from the
owners house was only few miles, but
he had to be sent long way round to
cross the bridge. In less than twenty
four hours he made his appearance at
the stable door dripping wet, having
swum the river and taken straight
line home. During the life of the cele-
brated sportsman, the late Sir Richard
Sultan, draft of young hounds was
sent up to London by wagon, from the
kennel near Lincoln, and there put on
board vessel to 90 abroad. While the
ship was dropping down the Thames,
one of them jumped overheard and
swan ashore. Some weeks after, it made
its appearance at the kennel, half
starved, and covered with bites bestowed
upon it by its more fortunate fellows.
Some years since dog-foX was run
to ground on Hatfield heath, near Ash
ford. Kent. When dug out he was found
to have some remarkable white spots
about him, therefore the Earl of Thanet
had him sent to his seat in Westmore-

miles. and turned down. A fortnight
afterward the same fox was killed near

Men have preached us deaf and dumb,
or bitter and bellicose, with their inani-
ties and their superfcialities, their petit
nesses and their passions also petty. Is
it worth the while TO have brought out
mitrailleuse and Chassepot, and to have
rent the heavens with their roaring, for
the sake of showing that women can DE

at the back of the stalls these may be
at only one end or at both as is preferred
by the owner. 1t will be observed that
we have made arrangements for driving
in the center with a wagon; this is be-
cause a granery is placed overhead,
capable of holding a thousand bushels
of grain, more or less; right in where it
is wanted and where it is safe and dry
A stairway is made near the center by
which to get the grain to feed. In fill
ing it up, if the floor is made of rails,
they may be laid one length at time
and the corn shoveled in from the wag-
on if plank floor is used trap doors
may be put in. which shall be covered up
as the crib is filled. The floor of this
granery is placed upon strong .joists
pinned TO the center posts high enough
up to leave room for man to stand up
in the wagon while unloading. As the
posts are ten feet apart it is necessary to
have some additional support between,
which is obtained by making strong
slabs or boards and mailing them to the
rafter plates half way between the posts,
letting them hang down low enough to
be foot or so lower than the floor of
the granery large mortices are made in
the lower end, on level with the .joists
on the posts stout block is nailed
across below the mortice to prevent it
from splitting, and stiff joists then
slipped in, and you have a secure floor,
if it is we'll made, without lot of extra
posts in the way below.
