4 RIDICULOUS STORY.

When n foolish story gets %atloat, it is
next to impc ssible TO keep it from circu-
lation forever. After last years corn
crop was gathered, and the price went
down to a low figure in the districts
most remote from market, a few foolish
farmers said that corn was cheaper than
fuel and burned a few bushels of it to
demonstrate hat fact. From thence
has arisen the ridiculous story that in
the West corn is generally used for
fuel. because it cannot be transported
proftably for long distances, and a
Washington Cityp.perb bases an editorial
article upon the assumption that the
Western farmers are actually burning
their grain for fuel, while Eastern
laborers are starving for the necessaries
of life that are thus wasted, the high
prices of transportation rendering 1t
impossible 30 put the grain in market.
No such state Of thing exists now, nor
do we believe that 1t ever ala exist.
There may have been a few isolated in
stances of foolish farmers burning their
corn, but they were very few and ex-
ceedingly far between /; and there is not
to-day a county in the West in which
corn is not worth from fifty to eighty
cents a bushel. Nor was there eve a
time in which transportation was so
cheap. The case Of the Western farmer
is bad enough, when correctly stated !;
and it does not need to be bolstered up
by such improbable stories and ridicu-
lous fabrications as those we have re-
ferred to.

problem +! In the lowest part of the
mountains, ice could be cut and made
ready to be taken away. But there are
no roads by which it could be carried to
the plains /; and if it were possible 10
construct roads over the mountains to q
sufficient height to reach the snowy re-
gions, the cost of making them would
be enormous ; and when made, it is
doubtful whether ice could be trans
ported over them with sufficient rapid
ty for it to reach the plains in a solid
state.
So the Himalayas keep their icy treas
ures safely locked up in their mountain
businesses, and the parched East Indian
finds himself obliged to call upon a dis
tant land to take compassion on him and
help him.-M. E. EdiUardS, in st.
Nicholas for October.

BRANDi.

A gentleman who has for years lived
on the banks of the Carson river came
to town on Thursday evening to attend
the Jones reception. He took a little
champagne with Jones, and afterwards
commenced on brandy. After taking
two drinks he caught himself taking his
shirt studs out and putting them into a
friends vest pocket after the third
drink he stole his wi watch. We
passed him on his way to the railroad
depot, and heard him moraizing thus
eff that there brandy is cheap at two
bits a drink, how much is Carson rlv-
er water worth at nothing? l got that
fellows watch and his studs, and if I'd
took another drink, I'd had his boots"

The Use of Cows.


A friend of mine has two bright little
boys,-Freddy, between three and four
years old, Willie about five. Both were
very fond of milk, and a mug of it al
ways completed their supper. But
while in the country last summer, it so
CHANGED that they II day saw the girl
milking.
There, Willie" said Freddy, "you
see that, do you? 1 don't want any
more milk after the COWS had it," and
he withdrew, very much digusted.
That evening when their mugs of
milk were placed on the table, both
stood untouched. A reason of this
phenomenon being asked, Freddy sim
ply declared that he did not want the
milk after the COW had had it, but fur
ther refused to explain. Willie, how
over, told Of the discovery of the morn
ing.
The mother then explained that the
milk did not come to them secondhand
that the Gov ate grass, which was
changed into milk by a wonderful
chemical process, akin to that which
produced everything in nature. In the
light of this explanation, Willie was
satisfied, but Freddy still turned up his
nose at the milk, sticking TO the original
proposition.
After supper, Willie, who on these
important occasions always acted as ex-
FOUNDER, took his brother aside into a
corner.
cts all right, Freddy, he said, "and
you can just go IN drinking your milk
again. The COW eats grass, and that's
what makes it. Now, if the COW didn't
eat the grass, you'd have to, you see.
That's what the cows for" Freddy
resumed his evening draughts.. To his
mind the only alternative was eating
grass, and from that he shrank.-

THE LONG q

oh d,-tul s.resn is the river Time,
As it runs through the realms Of tears,
With q ~fsultless rhythm and q musical rhyme,
And a broader sweep, and a surge sublime,
And bl lends with the ocean of years.
How the winters are drifting like flakes of snow,
And the summers like buds between,
And the year in the sheaf-so they come and
they go
On the rivers breast, with its ebb and flow,
AS it glides in the shadow and sheen.
There's a magical isle up the river Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing;
There's a cloudless sky and a tropical cline,
And a song as sweet as a vesper chime,
And the Junes with the roses are staying.
And the name of this isle is the Long Ago,
And We bury our treasures there;
There are brows of beauty and bosoms Of snow
There are heaps Of dust, but We loved them sol
There are trinkets and tresses of hair.
There are fragments of song tina. nobody sings,
And a part of an infants prayer,
There's a lutte unswept, and a harp without strings,
There are broken vows, and pieces Of rings,
And the garments that she used to wear.
There are hands that are waved when the fairy
shore
By the mirage is lifted in air;
And we sometimes hear through the turbulent
roar
Sweet voices we heard in tie days gone before,
When the wind down the river is fair.
oh , remembered for aye be the blessed isle,
AL the day Of life till night
When the evening comes with it's beautiful smile,
And our eyes are closed to slumber a while,
Nay that 81 greenwood" OF soul he in sight.

PARTRIDGES DISCOVERY.


1t was Lycurgus, 1 believe. who re-
marked that "a cat has nine lives"
Mr.. Partridge, on Thursday night last,
thought he had discovered a couple of
cats which had fifteen apiece. 1t was
his first night at home, after spending
the summer in the country and about
one o'clock he was awakened by some
unusually loud caterwauling, apparently
in Bowman's yard next door. He rose,
went to the window and calculated
"ScGtI I" several times, but without eff
feet. The noise continued. Then he
fumbled around in the closet for an old
boot and projected that at the spot where
he thought the cats were. There was a
momentary lull, but in a minute or two
the ~screeching became more vociferous
than ever. Partridge went for another
boot and hurled it with terrific force
into Bowman's yard, and then he fol-
lowed it with another, and then the
noise became positive shrek. Partridge
was gradually getting excited, and dash
ing into the closet he scooped up all the
boots on the foof and the bootjack, and
after finging them over owman's fence
in quick succession, but without stop
ping the serenade, he danced around in
q frenzy and fired off everything he
could lay his hands On. Hrs. Partridge's
CATERS, the soap cup, the towel rack,
the pomatum jug, the cologne bottle,
the footstool, Mrs. Partridge's hoops,
the hair brushes, the wax fruit, the
hymn book and the plaster image Of
little Samuel saying his prayers in a
night shirt with stubby-nosed angel in
a bolster-case watching him-all of these
things were hurled furiously at the I'M
seer cats and still the duet proceeded.
At last, when all the available material
in the room excepting the bedstead and
Mrs. Partridge had been fnng away,
Partridge rushed downstairs for his
gun and then emptied both barrels into
Bowman's dining-room shutters. Then
Bowman appeared at the back window
and exclaimed
What in the thunder is the mat
ter !"
matter !" shouted Partridge, why
I'm trying to stop those diabOlical cats
in your yard"
"What cats ?" inquired Bowman 81
don't see any cats"
But you can hear 'en, can't You ?
They've been yowiin' around down there
for the last two hours like fury. There
they go. Don't you hear that. Just
listen to that, will you?"
Partridge, you certainly must be
drunk. Cats! Why, good gracious,
man, those are Mrs. Bowman's twins
over here in room. They were
born last Friday. Didn't you hear
about it 2"
Their Partridge suddenly shut tine
window down and went to bed. He is
going out into the country again, to stay
until it is cold enough to sleep with the
window shut.-DanGury Neus.

A NEW law in reference to truant chill
dren is about to go into effect in New
York city. 1t is designed to clear the
streets of the young Migrants, who,
growing up without care, furnish many
recruits to the criminal classes. The
law gives the Board of Education au-
thority over all children between the
ages of s and II years who are found
wandering about the streets and public
places during school hours, having no
lawful occupation or business, and
growing up in Ignorance. These chill
dren the board may order to be taught
in the schools like ordinary pupils, or
they may be instructed in useful trades,
or they may be put in confinement and
educated there. The agency OF the
police force is availed of for the enforce
ment of this new law.
