A Canadian youth has proved to his
complete satisfaction that Millions de-
finition of jealousy as "the injured
lovers hell' may be accepted, so far as
he is concerned, at least, in the most
liberal sense. He became possessed OF
the idea that his inamorata received the
visits of other admirers than himself.
and to satisfy his jealous suspicious he
concluded to take advantage of dark
night and station himself in the
branches of tree which overlooked
the window of the lady's sitting room,
He had hardly accomplished this some
what difficult feat before the curtain OF
''the golden window of his silent
watch" were cruelty and closely drawn,
and his vigil was rendered fruitless.
As he prepared to return to the earth
he became aware, from the deep
mouthed bayings which greeted his
ears, that large dog was anxiously
awaiting his descent, and for two long
hours he desperately, but necessarily
somewhat quietly, ,endeavored to induce
the animal to retire. But the dog was
as faithful as Byron's bOatswain, and
the unlucky lovers smothered en-
treaties interpretations were alike un-
availing. He was thereupon compelled
to select the most comfortable crotch
the branches of the tree afforded, and
resign himself to night of dismal un-
rest. When the first streaks of dawn
enabled the half-frozen fellow to get a
glimpse of his tireless watcher, he
found, equally to his disgust and relief,
that the dog was his own The sudden
ness with which the baffled lover finally
reached the ground is said to have been
remarkable, and the soliloquy in which
he INDUCED shockingly profane.

As some persons may be in the same
plight the coming spring that l was
last, as regards knowing how they are
to grow few early tomato plants. and
have them stocky and tirst-class plants
III every respect, will give the details
of how 1 managed to grow few hun
dred to my entire satisfaction. took
a small box, 12x20 inches.6 inches deep
and filed it with good garden soil, and
put it on the kitchen stove-drum, and
let it stay there till the dirt was thor
oughly warmed through; then took a
stick and made marks an inch apart, 4 ]
inches deep in the dirt, cross-ways of
the box; then scattered tomato seeds
quite thick along the rows and covered
them about I of an inch deep; then
took newspaper and wet it and COW
cred the box to prevent the dirt from
getting dry on top. The box was set
on bench near the stove after the
seeds we're sown and the following day
set on the stove drum again for the pur-
pose of keeping up the heat in the soil
being careful not to let it get too hot.
In forty-eigbt hours from the time the
seeds were sown they had sprouted,
and many had broken the ground; q
few were near one-half inch high

This tree divides with the elder the
ignOminy of being that on which the
arch traitor hung himself,-neither le-
gend being worth thetrOuble of sitting.
1t is native of the south of Europe,
and several countries of Asia from
Syria to Japan; and is handsome low
tree with spreading head, easily dis
tinguished among the LeguminOus
order by its simple glabrOus, kidney
shaed leaves, and by its purple flowers,
which are produced abundantly in May
before the leaves, not ONLY from the
young twigs, but from the old branches,
and even the main trunk. The flowers
are succeeded by thin brown pods
about six inches in length, which re-
main on the tree all the year. These
are not generally produced in this
country England) unless the plant be
trained against a wall; but in a warmer
climate they perfect their seed in
abundance, and afford q ready means
of propagation. The leaves are re-
markable for their unusual shape, for
the pale blush green of their upper
surface, and for their sea- green hue be-
meath. The flowers have an agreeable
acrid taste, and are sometimes mixed
with salad, or made into fritters with
batter, and the flower buds are picked
in vinegar. This species is known as
Cercis Siliquastrum, from the cOnspicu-
Ous appearance of its seed vessels.

The Legend of the Felt Hat.

There are is legend among the hat
ters that felt was invented by no less a
parsonage than st. Clement, the patron
saint of their trade. Wishing to make
a pilgrimage to the Holy Sepulchre,
and at the same time to do penance for
sundry une1piated peccadilloes, the
pious monk started on his journey afoot.
As to whether he was afflicted with
corns or kindred miseries, the ancient
chronicle from which this information
is derived is silent but, at all events,
q few days successive tramping soon
began to blister his feet. In order to
obtain relief, it occurred to him to line
his shoes with the fur of a rabbit. This
he did, and on arriving at his destina-
ton, was surprised to find that the
warmth and moisture of his fee. had
worked the soft hair into cloth-hke
mass. The idea thus suggested he
elaborated in the solitude of his eel,
and finally, there being no patent laws
in existence in those days, he gratuit-
ously presented to his fellow mortals
the result of his genius in the shape of
q felt hat.

Insanity Among Ants.

Don Francisco Velasquer informed
me, in 1870, that he had pOwderwhich
made the ants mad, so that they bit
and destroyed each other. | made sew
eral trials of it, and found it most eff
ficacious in turning large column of
ants. A little of it sprinkled across
their paths in dry weather has most
surprising effect. As soon as one of the
ants touches the white powder it COM
mences to run about wildly, and to at
tack any other ant it comes across. In
a couple of hours round balls of ants
will be found biting each other, and
numerous individuals will be seen Bit
ten completely in too, while others have
lost some of their legs or antenna.
News of the commOtiOn is carried to
the fOrmicarium and huge fellows,
measuring three-quarters of an inch in
length, that only come out of the nest
during migration or an attack on the
nest of one of the working columns, ,are
seen sailing down with determined
air,as if they would soon right matters.
As soon, hOwever,as they have touched
the sublimate, all their stateliness
leaves them; they rush abOut;their legs
are seized hold of by some of the
smaller ants already affected by the poi
son, and they themselves begin to bite,
and in a short time become the centre
of fresh balls of rabid ants The sub
Innate can only be used effectively in
dry weather.
