The lion paused as she turned toward

The lady strained her child closer to
her breast. To descend the dark depths
of the chasm was preferable to being torn
by that savage monster. There was no
time to lose In another moment the
tawny body must come swooping down
upon her.
But now a quick, wild thought-a
mothers spiration-hashed through her
mind. Under the armpits she clasped the
child with each hand, and raised it high
above her head, so that the bleeding
scratches on it's white flesh were fully ex-
posed to the lions view.
That sight reused to the full the uncon-
'trollable desires Of the savage beast. With
a smothered roar he shot up from the rock,
his huge form cleaving the air with one
tremendous bound for the child. sv
That was what Mrs. Benton had waited
for. BY elevating her child, she had com

Kindness is Economy.

WE trust that we may not speak in vain
when we appeal to the boys of the farm, to
the farmers themselves, and to the 'hired
men," to exercise the utmost care and
kindness in the treatment Of domestic an
imals 1t is standing disgrace to hui
mainly that laws and associations for the
prevention of cruelty to animals are at all
necessary in this country. To the credit
of the farmers, be it said, that among
them the cases of malicious, fragrant cru
city are far less numerous than among
those who have occasion to use and care
for the useful domestic animals in our cit
es and towns. On the farm, ownership
goes great ways in conducting to ra-
tiOnal course toward the brute creation In
the large cities, where so many horses and
mules are entrusted to the hands of hired
drivers, half brutes naturally, and made
still more brutal by the use Of liquor, it is
not a matter of so much wonder that vio-
lent abuse often occurs that renders neces-
sary the enforcement of laws for protec-
ton, or that societies exist for this specific
purpose. But it is not with the latter that
the Prairie Farmer, very fortunately, has
to do. With this class, reason is out Of
the question, even at times of personal in
terview; printed appeals are still more
W,
not often the case. z
With the farmer and his boys, at least,
the ill-treatment of stock, whether used for
work or otherwise, the matter becomes
one Of dollars and cents as we'll as one of
humanity. The horse that is spoiled
temper or habits by vicious management
is deprecated in value. The COW that is
maltreated becomes habitually vicious,
loses her milk product, and her keeping
results in loss instead of profit The
manning, or murder if we may SO call it,
of either becomes dead loss to tie peck
ct. This is so whether injury results from
wilfulness or heedlessness in moment of
passion, neglect, or injudicious though
we'll meant treatment. But it must in
truth be said that these principles are far
less acted upon by farmers than in all rea-
son one would expect. The actual loss to
farmers by culpable ill-treatment of do
nestle animals in any of our States would
more than pay the farm taxes thereof;
while those resulting from ignorance and
scarelessness would double the amount
There can be no question concerning the
truth of these statements. For their veri-
fication let any thoughtful reader take
careful survey Of the condition of the
matter in his own neighborhood and town
ship. We are all roundly prating about
our unjust taxation caused by the dis
honesty of officials, the rings and mono
poles, which in Heavens name we would
not palliate in the least, but while seek
ing to stop the waste at the bunghole, let
us not forget the waste by the spiggots
that are under our own control. We enter
our earnest appeal for kindness and mercy
towards the brute creation that comes I'M
der the care of the husbandman, not only
for mercy's and decency's sake, but for the
sake. of economy and thrift. The busy
season for the teams of the farm is the
time for reflection and action in this mat
ter.-Prair5e Farmer. s s3E2 3a anabt5

Manufacturing a $500 Greenback.

AN ingenious though unsuccessful at
tempt to defraud the Government has lust
been brought to light in this city. For
ingenuity of conception and completeness
OF detail it has rarely been surpassed.
A young man, scarcely twenty years of
age, teller OF downtown bank, wrote to
| the treasury Department at Washington,
enclosing $500 BILL quite worn in ap-
pearance, which he wished to exchange
for new money This money he desired
sent to his address in this city The letter
and bill were referred to the proper clerks
in the office without suspicion of wrong.
Upon examination, it was found that it
was trif1er shorter than it should be.
This led to closer investigation, which re-
veaied the fact that it was constructed of
slips cut from genuine bills of the same
denomination, pasted together with won
derful exactness and care These strips, to
the number of fifteen, were pasted to a.
strip Of tissue paper almost invisible, so
thin was its texture. The first was cut
from the left end of a genuine note, the
second from another bill to join, the third
to join that, etc. Fifteen bills Of the same
issue must have been manipulated in or
der to obtain the requisite number of
strips So small was the portion taken
from each bill that it's absence could be
easily concealed from any but critical
eye, by joining the edges of the major and
remaining parts. The rectangular pieces
when fitted to their respective positions in
the manufactured note, were joined with
such exactness that the engraved lines
and printed words were complete and un-
broken.
Detectives were stationed at the desig-
n q nj in, hIc nIf
young man called for his answer from
Washington, he was arrested on charge
Of attempting to defraud the Government.
He was astounded at the arrest, and made
a full confession of guilt Hitherto, he
had borne an unblemished reputation, and
had many and influential friends It was
satisfactorily shown that this was his first
deviation from the path Of rectitude, and
as his penitence was as sincere as his
grief, his friends asked for mercy. Gen
eral Spinner Vas presented with a petition
signed by in iuential men in this city, who
begged him ~ refrain from a prosecution
of the offender. The culprit himself wrote
a letter to General Spinner, concealing-
none of the facts, and imploring forgive
ness. In view Of these circumstances, and
the fact that he was the only support of a
widowed and aged mother, and sister of
great responsibility, the prosecution was
withdrawn. For the same reasons the
name of the unfortunate youth is suppress
ed from publication.
Here it may be stated that the pieces
taken from the $500 bills do not impair
their value, as under rule established by
Secretary Boutwell,, any bill from which
less than one-half had been taken will be
redeemed by the Treasury Department at
the full value of the original billy. Y.
