an inch and a halt long, sharpen one
end, stick it under the chicks throat,
letting the other end rest on tho

Then with thumb and finger open tle
chicks eyes, and he will look as If

about three feet from the live chick
in the cage and set it. At the 'ame
time shut up all your young chickens
in some building where they won't

He studied his loved art patient
ly and earnestly. The first work he
produced was the statue of Ethan
Allen, which is now standing in the
portico of the State-house at Mont
pelier. Since then he has studied in
Italy, and produced several works of
art. His Returned Soldier, or
Story of the Battle" is the most fa-
nous. This is Union soldier, with
a little girl upon his knee, leaning ON
his shoulder in childlike abandon,
while he relates the story ofthe war.
Little did Larkin Meade dream,
as his boyish hands modelled the Snow
Angel that moonlight night, so long
ago, of the honor he would one day
receive from his country. He has
now been entrusted to carve in endu-

tyred President, Lincoln. This is a
trust the greatest sculptor might feel
honored to receive.
Truly, little beginnings lead to
great endmgs.

QUAKER GRAYs AND Browns
These are the fashionable shades for
spring wear, commencing at silver
gray, straight through to blue gray,
iron-gray and bronze gray, pure drab-
gray being the most desirable.
But do not confound gray with
lavender, as so many persons do, or
drab with fawn; when you get a
pure shade keep it, and compare it
with Others, and in this way educate
your eyes to tints. shades, and colors.
Next to the grays, the wood and
nut-browns will be fashionably worn.

SONG AND STORY.
PLATONIC.
BY WILLIAM B. TgRRETT.

l had sworn ODE bachelor, she had sworn to
be maid,
For we quite agreed in doubling whether matri'
mODy paid;
Besides We had our higher loves, fair science
ruled my heart,
And she said her young affections were all wound
up In art
So we laughed at those wise men who say that
friendship cannot live
Twixt man and won N, unless each has some
thing more 10 give;
We would be friends, and friends as true as e'er
were man and man
I'd be a second David and she Miss Jonathan.
We scorned all sentimental trash-vows, kisses,
tears and sighs!
High friendship, such as ours, might well such
childish arts despise;
We liked each other, that was all, quite all we
had TO say,
SO We just shook hands upon ii, in business
sort CT way.
We shared our secrets and our joys together
hoped and feared,
With common purposes sought the goal that
young ambition reared;
We dreamed together Of the days, the dream
bright days 10 come;
wewere strictly confidential, and we called each
And many day we wandered together DER the
hills,
/ seeking bugs and Butterflies, and she the ruined
mills
And rustic bridges, and the like, that picture
making prize,
To run in with their waterfalls, and groves, and
summer skies.
And many quiet evening, in hours OF full re
lease,
We noated down the river, or loafed beneath the
trees,
And talked in long graduation, from the poets 10
the weather,
While the western skies and my cigar burned
slowly out together.
For through it all nowhispered word, no tell-tale
glance or sigh,
Told aught Of warmer sentiment than friendly
sympathy.
We talked OF love as coldly as we talked OF neb-
ulR,
And thought no more OF being one than we did
Of being three.
''Well. goodbye, chum :" took her hand, for the
time had come 20 60
Ny going meant our parting, when TO meet we
did not know;
l had lihgered long, and said farewell with very
heavy heart,
For although we both were friends, It's hard for
honest friends TO part
Goodbye, old fellow don't forget your friends
beyond the sea,
And some day, when you've lots or time, drop
line or two TO me-
The words came lightly, gaily, but great sob

And then she raised her eyes TO mine-great

Perhaps the tears meant friendship, but I'm sure

BEANS AS A CRoP.-The cultiva.
ton og beans is too much neglected
by farmers, even by those who try 10
have a good garden, and yet very
little time spent would enable every
family to raise from one to three or
four bushels, according to the size OF
the family. Many farmers object to
raising beans on account of the ex-
pense, but for the value of the pro-
duct, it is, especially on light soils,
one of the most profitable raised.
As field drop teey will yield from
ffeen to thirty bushels per acre, de-
pending upon soil, season and culture.
A dry, sandy soil is considered the
best but excellent crops may be raised
on strong clay loans. For a field
crop, bush beans are generally pre-
ferred, and the most salsable are the
white ones. AS q market bean the
little white or navy bean is pre-emi-
nent, though the marrow is, TO our
mind, better for family use; they are
early and productive, whether green
or dry.
Beans should not be planted till all
danger of frost is over, as they are
very sensitive TO its influence. They
should be sown in drills or in hills,
but should never he hoed when wet
from rain or dew. Try a small patch
this year, and you will hardly miss
any lessening that may occur in the
yield of some of your other ordinary
crOps.

DEPTH OF COVERING SEED. As
general rule, the smaller the ;ecd the
lighter should be the covering. We
are very apt TO cover too deeply.
Nature here is safe 10 follow. She
covers lightly. The seed falls from
the ripened stalk upon the surface of
the ground, TO be covered only with
leaves, or to be washed into the soil
by the rains. Onions, parsnips,
squashes and Lima beans, such plants.
especially, as push up the shells of
the seed itself, find it difficult TO force
their way up through much depth of
earth, after it is packed down by
rains. A quarter, or half an inch
at most, is quite sufficient for these
seeds.
Care should be taken that no
Jumps Of earth be left over them.
We like long rows of beets, carrots,
parsnips, ect and don't believe in
wasting half the land in useless
paths and walks with short rows run
ming crosswise. Long Iows are more
easily worked and kept clean than
short ones. We should study ocono-
my both on the farm and in the gar
den. On the field the too frequent
turnings consume much time in
plowing, and TO some extent this is
so in the garden.

A Woman of the World.
BY MISS PATToE.

None but people of the world, those
born to the purple OF its society, can
fully understand what the term "Wo-
man of the world" means. 1t does
not express, to enlightened minds,
any condition of age, extreme degree
OF fashion, masculinity of opinion, or
aught save just that complete 'nicety
of parts" as Gladstone most fifty ex-
presses the meaning of this-that bor-
ders on the "faultily faultless' the
Ory-the intangible something that is
the very essence of this worldly per-
fection. You can explain it just as
you could the perfume of flower,
the magic of sound, but we know it
exists, precisely as we recognize its
proximity, throughout the length and
breadth of its etherealpowe There
are women, born and bred in the sun
shine of "Le hGute rolee," who, though
essentially well-bred members there
of, yet have not that spirituelle pol
ish of style, requisite to this particu-
lar character of the "woman of the
world" Not necessarily blaze, our
ideal woman is often found to have
an elegant cynicism of opinion in her
composition, that's never shown inner
manner Of treatment to any creature.
Wholly human in her perceptions
of Justice and right, there is divin'
ity of kindly care in her acceptance
of every right under the sun, that
was born with our different natures,
degrees and needs. Never presump-
tuous in her prerogatives, they are
tacitly accorded her in the attention
she deserves by her unwearied po-
liteness to every one within her reach.
Our women Of the world are never
surprised in any coarseness of man
ner or word, and although there is a
certain monotony in her constant
watchfulness, yet it never wearies US,
but is rather a panacea for our much
pains-taking with those of different
grain. A woman Of the world is a
lady, a thorough woman and a lady,
and every man Of fine instinct knows
Just what worth she is to him. If he
is taciturn, she understands it with
out any explanation (other women
sulk that he is not wholly overcome
with her attractions and is agleeably
loquacious, or silent, as the case may
seem to demand; and if he is inclin-
ed to different mood her ripping
laugh will echo every tone Of her
broad, honest sympathy with him,
and he relinquishes her society, (wo-
men of the world are never consplcu-
ously partial to any Don John or Her
man 0wlglass) with an evidentregret.
After all we may say, 10 one will un-
derstand the perfect unison of the
nature of the "Woman of the World
save those who knew it all before
and the plebeians of society will pass
| it by as dissertation on some pas
sage from the Greek. And well, 1t
was designed so, for ifall wo,nen were
like our sculptured subject, then we'd
have no woman of the world" and
so in the splendid economy of our
great mother, nature-we have spared
to us this beautiful ideal woman, that
is withal natural growth Of pro
foundly good association, education,
charity that hopeth, believeth, en-
dureth all things, and the earnestness
of nature made '1ittle lower than
the angels.
