Toms Lesson.

500 and get it! Go and get it, I
say!'
Poor little Dash crept close to his
young masters feet, looking up in his
face with earnest, pleading eyes, as if
he would say, ePlease, please don't! /
cannot do what you want"
Tom was trying to make Dash swim
after stick which he had just thrown
into the river. Now, Dash was not a
water-dog, having no moro love for it
than a cat, and foolish Tom was bent
on making one! He Kicked the poor
little animal away and repeated his
order; then, angry that it was not obey
ed, seized him and threw him into the
water. The dog was sorely frightened,
but by hard struggling reached the
nanK ana ektswleea-eo ms masters feet
with pitiful whine, wet, painting,
trembling. The cruel boy caught him
up with rough words, and was just
going to throw him in again, when a
pair of strong arms seized him and a
mans voice said, "Here, you young
scamp! Now We'll see how you like
to sWim!'
It was TOMS turn to be frightened.
He turned pale, trembled and caught
his breath as the stranger lifted him in
his stout arms as he had poor Dash
he began 10 peg. "on, Slf, pray uOn |!
1 cannot swim, indeed I cannot! Oh,
don't throw me into the water! 1 will
never do so again."
The man paused, bnt did not let go
his hold.
"Neither can your dog swim," he
said; "but you meant to make him do
it, just to amuse yourself. Why can 1
not make you do it to amuse me? L
am much largera and stronger than you,
as you are larger and stronger than
that poor, painting, trembling dog"
Tom still begged and promised, and
the stranger at last let him go, saying,
"Now, my boy, let me give you Il kind
word of advice. Never treat another,
whether human being or dumb animal,
as you would not like to be treated
yourself. Never try to make anybody
or anything do what God, when he
created it, did not make it to do, or to
be what he did not mean it to be. If
you keep these rules, you will be Il bet
ter, wiser, happier boy. Good-bye'
And Tom knew in his heart that the
man was right, and the lesson, though
it seemed severe, had been given in
kindness.

Our Feathercd Friends.

The Swiss naturalist, Baron Won
Tschudi, has this to say in behalf of
birds, the efficient but too seldom APP
preciated allies of the husbandman
Without birds, successful agriculture is
impossible. They annihilate in few
months a greater number of destructive
insects than human hands could accom-
plish in the same number of years.
Among the most useful may be classed
the swallow, wren, robin red-breast,
sparrow and finch. Tschudi tested a
ttmouse upon rose bushes of his neigh
Dor, and rid the same in q few hours
of innumerable lice. A rObin-redbreast
killed in the neighborhood of 800 flies
in an hour. A pair of night swallows
destroyed in Is minutes, an immense
swarm of gnats. A pair of Wrens flew
sc times an hour, with insects in their
bills, to their nests. He considers the
sparrow very important; a pair of them
caterpillars to their nests-certainly a
good compensation for the few cherries
which they pluck from the trees. The
generality of small birds carry to their
young ones during the feeding period,
nothing but insects, worms, snai1s
spiders, &c. A farmer Indignantly de-
stroys robin because he has caught
him eating a cherry, and thinks he has
done mankind a service, but let him
take q moment to open the crop of the
bird, and he will find it full of worms.
In some instances 200 worms and grubs
have been found in the gizzard Of a
single bird. An oriolc shot in field
of wheat had 300 Weevils in its crop.
A pair of orioles (parcnt birds) destroy
1 900 caterpillars in u day. The COM
missioners appointed by the French
government have reported with an ac-
curacy characteristic of French lcgisla-
ton. 1t has been decided that by no
agency save that of little birds can the
ravages of insects be kept down. "A
certain insect was found to lay 1900
eggs, but q certain titmouse was found
to eat 100000 of these eggs in Il year.
A swallow devOurS about $50 insects u
day, eggs and all. A house sparrow's
nest in the city Of Paris was found to
contain 700 pairs of the upper wings of
cockchafers, though of course, in such
q place, food of other kinds was procu-
rable in abundance. The blue bird, in
some respects, reminds one of the en-
glish robin-rcdbreast, though Us an in
sect destroyer it SURPRISES the English
bird. It's food consists Of all kinds of
insects, especially tho larv;e Of the cod
ling moth, and cankcr-worns and
caterpillars of every description are
quickly destroyed. The birds arrive
in time to destroy the female moth as
it ascends the tree in carly Spring to
deposit it's egg.

A Child's Life Saved by Geese.

Tenie Franck, a child seven years Old
came near being drowned on last Sum
day afternoon. "A deep pond is located
near the house; the sides are rugged,
and in one or two places descend several
feet almost perpendicularly. Tcnie
was playing near tho water all alone,
and, losing her balance in some way,
she tumbled into the water, which ut
the bank was quito over her head. No
one was near, and the little one was on
the eve of instant death; but fortunately
some geese We're swimming i'll the wa
ter and immediately commenced Il loud
cackling. Their constant and pcrsis-
tent noise attracted the attention of Il
blacksmith near by, who, running to
tho place, saw the little girls hand
sticking above the surface of the water.
He plunged into the pond, seized the
child and brought her to the shore just
I'm time to save her life.
Tenie was pretty sick for Il while, but
she soon recovered and is now looking
as sprightly as ever. When she grows
up she will read of how the geese saved
Rome with more than ordinary inter

THROWS STREAM
or rAHEONIC ACID GAS
CONTENTS. EQUIVALENT

Tho great advantages possessed by these
machines is their simplicity, chcapncss,
availability and complete mastery over fire.
They arc charged with seven gallons of wa
ter, in which is dissolved quantity of cont
mon soda, and in this solution is suspended
small lcadcn bucket filled with sulphuric
acid. Thus charged, they are set away for
use. At the moment needed, the acid is
empticd' into the water by upsctting the
bucket containing it, and the machine is
ready for use. It throws 4 stream thirty
feet, Of mingled water and gas, and is easily
transported and worked by ono person.

THE. HOUSE WHERE WE WERE WE'D.
BY WILL NJ. CARLTON.

WILL NJ. CARLION.
I,ve been to the old farm house, good wife.
Where you and were wed;
Where the love was born to our two hearts,
That now is cold and dead,
Where q 1ong-kept secret to you told,
In the beams of the yellow moon,
And we forged our VOWS out of loves own
gold,
To be broken so soon, so soon, wife!
To be broken so soon, so soon.
I passed through all the old rooms, good
wifel
wondered on and on:
following the steps Of a fitting ghost
The ghost of love that is gone.
He led me out on tho vine-wreathed porch,
Whore with myrtles twined your hair;
He sat mo down on the old stone step,
And he left me lnusing there, wife,
He left me musing there.
The sun went down as it used TO do,
And sunk in the sea of night:
The two bright stars that we called ours
Came slowly unto my sight;
Bnt the one that was mine went under a
cloud,
Went under q cloud, alone,
And a tear that wouldn't have shed for
the world.
Fell down on the old gray stone, wife,
Fell down OIL the old gray stone.
But there be words can meier be unsaid,
And deeds can ne'er be undone.
Except, perhaps, in another world,
When our lfe's once more begun;
Aud maybe, some time in the time to come,
When the days and years are sped,
Wen love again, as we used to love,
In the house where we were wed, wife,
In the house where we We're wed.

Stake-Training of Tomatoes.

Thomas Meehan says he has for sew
eral years noted the relative advantages
OF the different ways of cultivating
tomatoes, and he concludes that the
best practice to adopt is to proceed as
with Lima beans-that is, set the stakes
before the plants are put out. These
stakes need not be over six feet high,
and may be set about four feet apart
each way. AS the plants grow, tie
them up to ~he stakes; but that will
not be required over half dozen times
during the season. Twenty plants in
this way will yield as much fruit as
double the quantity on any other plan,
and in quality there is no comparison.
The common field plan of leaving to-
matoes to grow as they list, spreading
everywhere over this ground, may be,
as truclS-growers say it is, the way in
which the heaviest weight of fruit can
be had in proportion to the labor spent;
but fruit thus produced is more acid.

Letter from Stockton.

STOCKTON, Hartford County, Md.
Mr.. EDITOR: Our community has been quite
stirring for the last two weeks. A series of re-
ligious meetings commenced at the Mountain
Christian Church, on Sunday, August 18th,
which closed on last Sunday night, Sept. LIST.
The audiences were large from the beginning to
the close. Prof j. B. Crane, M. d., A. NJ, of
manner of preaching is argumcntatvc, torcible
and concise. You could but admire, even could
you not agree with him in Scriptural intcrprc-
tation. Dr. f. Marion Hawkins, the regular
pastor of the church, labored hard for the inter-
est of the meeting, and his services fornear three
years have been for good, and he is highly APP
preciated. Eight persons obeyed Christ during
the meeting, and were baptised in stream Of
water near the church, on the farm of Holdings
worth Brothers. Hundreds of people flocked to
the water to witness the baptisng, which occur
red at O'Clock, P. NJ, Sunday last. The wealth
cris cool and the change is great from the wealth
cr of week before last. SAMUEL.

not a success, it will not be because you have
not done your duty. You have set forth its
absolute necessity, both cditorially and by cor.
respondents, and if the people to be benefited
by it will only do their duty by giving all they
can themselves, and by urging all others inter
ested to do likewise the road will be made.
