An Important Fact in Grape Culture.
We would mention fact which has
come within our observation and ex-
perlence, which if generally true is OF
some Importance. 1t is this: That
the fruit bud from the base of the last
years cane throws out larger and better
developed grapes than either the first
or second. The grapes from these buds
seem also better favored, and general
ly superior to those on the first or
second. In accordance with this hint,
we have adopted the plan of cutting
the cane at such length as to leave the
third bud generally, and some times
the fourth, when a good strong one,
and then rubbing off the first and
second buds, and leaving the third and
fourth for fruit. Ii the vines are strong
and vigorous at three years, from two
to three punches of grapes may be al
lowed to mature on each without in
iury.-Rurot Poetic Press.

"What back so soon ?" said Tom
ny's mother, when she saw him run
ming up the walk.
" Yes, mamma" and he rushed up
to her, and told her breathlessIy all
that had happened, and how he had
spent his money.
Then what do you suppose she did
Gave him such a hugging and kissing
that he was nearly smothered.

you think that two dollars would buy

torn and dirty"
And you gave it to the poor boy 2"
"Do you care? His mamma was
sick, and he had three little sisters at
home, and there wasn't anything to
eat, and oh / felt so bad aud sorry. -

answered she. Always keep heart
as tender for the woes of others
And, mamma, if you don't mind,
I'd like to send him piece of straw
berry short-cake. I was to have two,
you said, SO I'll give him one. He
told me where he lived
&" You and Polly shall carry him a
basket full of goodies after supper"
ooh oh, won't that be nice z" and
Tommy clapped his hands, and ran in
to the kitchen to tell Polly. And even
when Jimmy Lane rode past on his
pony, he didn't feel bit sorry for
what he'd done, but was just as glad
and happy as ever.
Mrs. Periwinkle not only kept her
promise, but went around herself the
next day to see the family Tommy had
befriended, and, finding them wor-
thy people, assisted them III various
ways.
Tommy didn't get his pony until two
years afterwards, when his uncle
brought him one, the finest you ever
saw, iet-black, with long glossy
name, and oh !! such proud way of
carrying his head-a real Shetland

e" You buy things, then sell them for

The boy didn't answer. They were
Just passing a corner, and man ran up

ket fell to the sidewalk with a crash.
Tommy burst out crying, end 50 did
the boy, and they both went down on
their knees, picking up the broken
toys and vases.
oh dear. oh dearf what shall I
do?" sobbed the boy. s'There isn't a
whole one left, and I'll have to throw
them all away"

" But where am I to get the money (?
Mother has sold everything she had,
and there isn't mouthful to eat in the
house, and we didn't have any dinner
to-day, and now'-he broke down sob
bling violently.
Tommy stood listening with the tears
running down his face, and his hand in
the pocket where the two dollar note
lay, fresh and crisp. "Don't feel so
bad, little boy said he, "but come
home with me, and we'll have strawberry
short-cake for supper"
"And my mother, and my poor little
sisters, what will they do? They are
hungrier than [.
Tommy was going to say, "Let them
como too" only he was afraid there
wouldn't be enough short cake, and he
didn't know whether his mamma would
like 1t to have him bring home so much
company. SO he began to talk about
the man who upset the basket, and call
him mean, and hateful, and cruel.
eff he'd only just stopped, and been
little sorry said the boy, for may
be if he'd known how it was, he'd lent
me TWO dollars
Tommy felt the note rustling in his
pocket. Why not give it to this little
boy He thought of the pony, and
couldn't make up his mind. To be
sure, he had plenty to eat, and drink,
and wear, but then to walk home in
stead of riding, and to hear Jimmy

clutched the money tight, and looked
up into the face of the boy, and was
going to say goodbye, when ali at once
something came over him, and he
thought how bad he'd feel if his sister
Dot couldn't get enough to eat, and his
mamma was sick, and there wasn't
any money to buy her medicine or pay
her rent and the doctors bills. Tommy
did what many an older person
wouldn't, put himself in the place of
the little boy, and he didn't hesitate
any longer as to how he should act

but his eyes sparkled, and he bright
ened up wonderfully. Tommy didn't

too glad to accept the offer. And he
looked SO pleased and grateful that
Tommy felt almost repaid for the loss
of the pony. AS TO what he said, it
wasn't much, but it seemed to come
right from his heart, and made one feel
good and happy.

While devoting his energies to the moral
and to the material advancement of the
country, the President of the Republic laws
a very great stress upon the ACCOMPLISH
ment of the amendments to the constitu-
ton he asked of the national Legislature in
his celebrated Message on inaugurating his
constitutional administration. To this end,
in a recent circular to the presidents of the
. States and those of the Legislatures, he
e%vinces his firm resolution to support the
usefulness of the amendments, and to ac-
cept the responsibility thereof from the
present moment. He calls their attention
again to the amendment prohibiting the
reelection of the President, and the cleo
ton of whomsoeVer is acting as such. and
of the relations of either, to the fourth de-
gree of civil consaneuinity and affinity
and founding himself upon the require
