A Fable.
BY BELLA FRENCH.

An ant was travelling one day:
She had a tiny crumb of bread,
That she had luggcd a weary way,
That ali her children might be fed.
She smiled as only ants can smile.
For homo was getting slowly nigh.
She paused, and wiped her face awhile,
And breathed inaudibly a sigh.
g This is hard, hard world, " thought she
And mourntully she shook her head;
Those ants that have to toll like me
Were better off if they were dead.
Then what a care my children areL
Ungrateful too, have to own:
They bring no joy-'twere better far
III were really all alone.
In this most lovely world Of ours.
Oh then how happy I could be
No work to do; I'd rest on flowers"
And here she paused IL agony.
Her home was reached-no home, alas
The thought came with dreary pam.
A heartless youth who'd chance to pass
Had thrust IN it his dainty cane.
No little voices asked for bread;
No sweet caresses made her glad;
Her tiny children all were dead,
And yet the ant was very sad.

Effects Of Old F assures on the Flavor

Effects Of Old ASSURES on the Flavor
of Cheese.
An English correspondent of the Ucun-
try Gentleman says:
"Under no circumstance would an old
established dairy farm, famed for fine
Favored cheese. suffer the peculiar rich
and mellow taste impaired by the partic-
ular heritage grown in the dairy fields to
be tainted. by the product of inferior grass,
or Oh the other hand, permit the cheese of
other parties to be benefited at the expense
OF this sweet and most pleasant flavor. In
parts of England where arabic land pre-
walls, and where the land IL permanent
grass has ever yet produced any cheese of
quality beyond mediocrity, it is possible
factories may arise, for doubtless the man.
agement in making is superior by far to
where only second class cheese is manu-
featured. Good secOnd.class cheese can
not be made from clover pasture, or any
OF the temporary grass land under the US
ual style or manufacture there, for it will
not keep to be old enough to suit the bes /
customers, and cheese which requires eat
ing while comparatively new, has to be
consumed by the working classes, who
will not and can not pay high prices
The writer, after omplimenting the
American system Of manufacture, and CIV
ing due credit to the excellent quality of
our cheese, again gOes on to say
It's an utter impossibility to in'part the
flavor given by the old natural grasses
growing in century-old dairy fields, to
cheese made from clover or any artificial
or temporary pastures. This is we'll
known in En- gland, and the dairy COWS On
the best dairy farms are always, when in
milk, confined to the old dairy land, and
on most Of these farms there are fields
which only a fence divides, which would
spoil the uniformity of the cheese by Civ
ing the COWS access thereto. 1t makes a
difference. in butter making, TOO, though not
quite so quickly shown, yet there is land
which will not do to Craze with mich
COWS, from which a genuine good article
is required; and Though, of course, both
butter and cheese m ust be manufactured
in a clearly and proper manner, yet much
depends on the food the COWS eat, as the
best managers can not get rid of impuri-
ties which have been brought INTO the
milk from rank, sour or unsuitable fora ge.

The Neao England Farmer says: GA
man who will habitually take horse
through narroao door knows very little
OF what horse remembers, or what is
fair treatment to the animal. One single
blow OF the hip against the sharp corner
OF doorway is sometimes sufficient to
ruin valuable horse. But when that
blow has been. several times repeated,
the horse becomes valueless, because he
has become highly dangerous animal.
We have seen horse whose hips were
never healed, after striking two or three
times IN passing through narrow way.
Another dangerous practice is the lead
ing of horses out of the barn door by
the side of loads of hay, grain, etc. 4
slight blow upon the hip will sometimes
so excite a high spirited horse that the
person leading loses control over him,
and he escapes upon the jump, banking
his shoulders and hips as he proceeds,
leaving patches of skin and hair, as evi-
dence that he has got through. Many a
valuable horse has been ruined in this
way; and many a valuable one can be
saved by never leading him through
narrow space"

Benjamin. He was among the first Jews
in this country who took high rank
among our lawyers and statesmen. For
many years he represented Louisiana in
the Senate of the United States, and his
speech on leaving that body on the
breaking out of the war was regarded as
one OF the most eloquent efforts ever
made in this country. Under the Con-
federate Government he held the posi-
ton of Secretary of State, and the
papers written by him in that capacity
attracted great attention in Europe as
well as in this country. At the close. of
the war he went to London, where he
was naturalized, and upon complying
with the necessary conditions was ad-
mitted to practice in the highest courts
of Great Britain. His progress has been
so rapid at the bar that he hss been ap-
pointed Queens counsel, ard it is now
intimated by the English papers that he
will be raised to the Bench as soon as a
vacancy occurs. It would, indeed, be a
most singular thing, in spite of all the

amused while the wood-fre burns, and
watching the fantastic flames and the
