KEEP THE GATE Snur.--An English
farmer was one day at work ir. his fields,
when he saw party Of huntsmcn riding
about his farm He had one field that he
was especially anxious that they should
not ride over, as the crop was in a condi.
ton to be badly injured by the tramp Of
horses. So he dispatched one of his
workmen to this field, telling him to shut
the gate, and then keep watch over It, on
no account to suffer it to be opened.
This boy did as he was bidden; but wa.
scarcely at his post before the hunters
coming up, peremptorily ordered the
gate to be opened This the boy refused
to do, stating the orders he had received,
and his determination not to disobey
them. Threats and briSes were offered /;

WASHING HOUSE PLANTS. -Have a
large pail or tub filled with warm
soap suds, then spreading the fingers
and palm Of the left hand over the
soil in the pot; turn the branches
top.y-turvy into the warm soap suds,
swing the plant briskly in the water
till every leaf has become completely
saturated, then put it through a pail
of clean water, and rub each leaf with
the thumb and finger; give it good
shake, and when dry, return it to its
place in the window. The leaves o:
plant are lis lungs, each leaf being
furnished with hundreds of minute
pores, whence the plants breathe IN
carbon and exhale oxygen. The psrs-
piration Of plants is said to be seven
teen times that Of a human body
Many plants never bloom on account
Of the accumulation Of dust upon their
leaves. A plant too large to be laid
down in tub, as above described,
may be syringed and each leaf rubbed
clean with the finger and thumb, which
are better for this purpose than a brush
or cloth.

To KEEP GAME.-If there be any
danger Of birds not keeping, Pick and
draw them, wash them well in water
AID rub them with salt. Plunge them
singIy into a large sauce pan of boil
ing water, draw them up and down
by the legs to let the water pass thro'
them. After they have been in the
water for five minutes hang them up
to dry in cold place, sprinkle them
with pepper, and salt we'll inside
Before dressing them they must be
again washed. BY this means tho
most delicate birds may be preserved,
with the exception of those which
live by suction, as they are never
drawn; but they may be kept long
time by putting Jumps Of charcoal or
a small quantity Of mould in muslin
bags IN their !n5ides.
