A Shower of hay.

DIR. Hawtrey Benson, of Dublin, writ
ing in the Dublin Daily Express under
date July 81, describes a remarkable
shower of small pieces Of hay which he
witnessed at Monkstown that morning.
1t appeared in the form of "a number Of
dark fiocculent bodies floating slowly
down through the air from great height,
appearing as il falling from very hea.
w dark cloud, which hung over the
house" The pieces of hay picked mp
were wet, las if e very heavy dew bad
been deposited on it. The average
weight OF the larger flocks was probably
not more Than one or two ounces, and,
from that, all sizes were perceptible
down 10 a simple blade. The air was
very calm, with a gentle under current
from =. b.; the clouds were moving in
IN upper crrreDj from $. S. W." The
air was tolerably warm and dry, and the
phenomenon is thus accounted for by
DR.. j. w. Moore "Tbe coincidence OF
n hot suh and two air currents probably
caused the development OF whirlwind
some distance TO the south Of Monks.
town. Bv it the hay was raised into the
air, TO fall, rs already described, over
Mo0kstown AID the adjoining districts"

Snake and Fish Stories.

A few days ago Mr.. Bell, residing on
Messrs. Humbird and DilIey's farm east
OF this city killed black.snake of five
or six feet in length, and observing
something protruding from its mouth,
examined the body and found that tie
object was the tail of another snake,
which proved to be of the same species
rs the first but only about half as large.
1t was alive, and. it is supposed, was
being eaten by the larger and stronger
reptile.

handful Of peanuts, quarter pound Of
gumdrops, little bottle OF ammonia
and some other tribes. She and her
swain, after admiring the complexion Of
the huge beast. turned their backs upon
him to watch the monkeys and the live
kangaroo, and gaze into each other 9
eyes; to do this tho better they leaned
back against the rope which enclosed the

in the last moutbful the majestic beast

The peculiar qualifications Of this

part from his views about anaa,gamation,
Of which he is an ardent advocate. In
deed it his watchword, as may be seen

Now, let it be remembered that this

The whole thing. that is the doctrine

TO PRESERVE AUTUMN LEAVES
First gather the leaves from the trees
just ms they are ready to fall, or a. soon
as possible after they have fallen; press
them Immediately for q week or more
until they are perfectly dry. Get half
pound OF yellow beeswax, put in tin
vessel, and place the vessel in q spider
containing little water, which must be
kept constantly boiling on the top OF the
stove over steady fire. Take each
leaf by the stem and dip into the hot
wax Once dipping Is usually sufficient.
II the wax gathers on the edges, touch
the places lightly with the hot tin. The
leaves dry instantly, and all the bright,
natural colors are preserved, and will
remain for ayear. BY piercing the leaf
near the Stem with doubled thread
wire you can weave them on coarssr wire
or ON large cord into any description
