A FISH SToRY.-John ,Iarkson was
walking along the river bank one day,
when he saw piece of ,string attached
to a peg stuck in the ground. He
picked Up the string, of which one end
was N the water, and hauled in three
fine bass, which BY some means OF
other had strung themselves through,
the gills ON the line. Jackson was so
:sstonished by this circumstance that he
did not know. what to say, but he de.
termined to take the, fish horne and
show them. Before doing so, however,
he looked about to see ifanybody could
give him an explanation of the affair."
but he only saw a gentleman fishing
some quarter of q mile off, and not
wishing to interrupt him in his sport,
picked up Els prize and walked homo
with it. John Jackson had his fish for
supper, and pronounced them very fine,
but to this day he cannot explain how
three bass, could possibly string them
selves through the gills, tie themselves
round a peg, and go back to the water
again. The gentleman who had been
fishing must. have made just such
smother. curious capture and lost it, for
he was heard later in the evening talk
ing somebodyprofaneg what the some
thing had become oft.

80 CATCH A CANARY,
after the Barbarian.


At this season Of the. year, When It
behgoves us to scrub and re-graYel our
bird cages, its more than likely that
your canary will get out.
In s*teh case prompt and decisive
action is required. Is is useless for the
whole family to collect and shout at the
canary and make desperate attempst to
watt pocket hankerchiefs over him.
Life is too short to be wasted in this
way.
7 And maddened efforts to clap hats
over him generally amount to very
little, especially when he is up "a tree
And just here we remark. that there.
are few methods of taking exercise that
may be relied upon to hold out like
that OF following loose canary around
village reaching ont at arms length
towards him "a good-sized bird cage,
and endeavofing by series of mono
itonous and Irrelevant chirps to make
him believe he wants to go in.
Sugar and cuttle-fish bone, as engines
of seduction, are net to be depended
upon. The average coaxation into
cages by sugar Of the ordinary canary
of North America is in the proportion
of a wheelbarrowful of the one to a
feather Of the other.
: We viii also state in this connection
that q man with new shoes on, and a
cage il. one hand, can furnish an in
teresting spectacle to over forty by
ISLANDERS by simply climbing a. tree to
offer wiry Establishments to an enfran-
schised canary.
The real way to catch loose canary
and the only way which can be warrant
ed for term of years, is to collect all
your friends and family and post them
around the tree or fence where the can
AIRY is at bay. Let them all furnish
themselves with plenty of bits of kind
ling wood, sods of grass, Jumps Of dirt,
hunks of brick, curry combs, bootiacks,-
porter-bottles, and other handy missiles;
and let them fire away boldly at the
canary. If the bird cowardly turns
tail and files off, let every body follow
and slam-bang at him with their utmost
yigor, 1t will be hard to confne this
entertainment to your Immediate circle.
No boy whose heart is in the right
pl ice and who has any legs will refrain

Greek end Coed Locks in Woman,

The State superintendent of the Mine
sofa schools recently received letter
asking his help in securing "a first class
woman to take charge of a high school" "
"She must be able," said the letter, ITO
teach in Latin and Greek she must
have age, good looks, and experie nee.
She will have charge Of one hundred
pupils" To which the superintendent
with grave irony replied 81 know of
no lady who can fill your bill. A good
looking women who can teach Greek
and Latin and run a high school of one
hundred pupils cannot be found. Good
looking woman rever study Greek. :"
The Tribune doubts the truth of this
last assertion, and mtimates that Mad
Daeier and the famous Heloise who
were good Greeks, were neither of them
particularly ugly, bit the chief conun-
drum suggested by the application is to
know why it is desirable that the mis-
stress of the school should be SO very
sgood-1ooking?

There is prevailing Ignorance re-

all about it, being in the business.
Goliath is belieyed to have been the
first printer. He did it with his feet,
leaving his prints wherever 20 went.
Printers have been on the tramp ever
since.
The first movable type was in the
fifteenth century. 1t was never fully
determined who moved it. Guttenburg
is suspected, as he was guttin' nearly
everything in those days,

book printed from movable type. Don

LIME.-"H. M. L., Some. set Co.. Pc.
1t IS fact that the richest portions Of
Pennsylvania in which farming land
as such is salable any day for 500 to
$500 per acre has been made rich, and
is Eept so, by the regular nse Of lime.
Not by lime alone by any means, but.
with the addition of clover, and largs.
quantities of manttre made from the
direct resources of che FARM. The pro-
duee sold consists Of grain, meal, but
Ter, and cheese. It is there claimed
that this canuot be done withouta regu,
lar use of lime applied in each rotation
with the grain crop with which the.
Fland'is laid down to- grass and eloYer,
Or clover alone and fsom the writer's
experience this claim is ahandantly
supported by the results. 1t is the
large quantity of vegetable raatter added
to the sell in conjunction With the.
lime, which MAINTAINS and even. adds.
to its original fertility. If this is the
case in Eastern Pennsylvania why
should it not be in the Western part or
elsewhere?-Am. 4 g,'icust.

"No; that's so.

The Squire and Tie widow kept up
very brisk conversation, Il the end q
an hour he was more deeply in love
with her than her daughter, and began
to wonder how he had been so blind as
to overl ook such q delightful woman
for So long.

of last years cider and plate Of cake.
"Do, have something to eat and

on her lips just as the door opened and

Squire bowling very low to hide his REQ
face.

to be prepared for them when thew

much may be dQne in the way of pre-

TlfF.
THE following stanza was written by Mrs. Barbauld
in extreme old age. When it repeated to Words
worth, he said 81 am not in the habit of grudging
people their good things but wish I had written
those lines"
Life we've been so long together
Through pleasant and through cloudy weather:
IT'S hard to part when friends are dear,
Perhaps twill cost sigh, tear:
Then steal away, give little warning,
Choose thine own time;
Say not goodnight, but in some brighter cline
Bid me good-morning.
THE FIRST BORN.
BY ELIZABETH c. KINNEY.
TREAD rev'rently, this is holy place!
soul this moment here begins to be- -..f
spirit born to live eternally:
Speak low commences here human race;
An infant-man, Gods image on his face,
In life's rough journey takes his first degree,
Opens his eyes, ali not the end to see,
Only Omniscience all that path can trace.
Softly in whispers there mother lies,
The dew of youth upon her, yet so pale,
She folds white hands, and looks, with upturned
esss;
To her Deliverer, seen ~ tt=ongh the veil
OF this hours weakness; still, her full heart tries
For thankful tterance. though words may fail.
