every one tried to keep ears and eyes open
day and night. but nothing Of Polly was seen
or heard. The poets house was no longer
filled with quiet gladness, for the inmates all
pitied the bird when night came on, and i'm
agined that She was far away in the woods,
hungry and out in the cold. Two days passed
and no tidiugs were brought Of the wander
ing bird. The neighbors began to think
that, like one of Shakcspeare's heroes, she
had died =" and made no sign" On the third
night, when two young persons, rs we have
heard the story, were sitting in one OF the
rooms in the cottage they were startled by a
sound. as though some evil-disposed intruder
had concealed himself in the fireplace. An
investigation was determined upon the FIRE

She was a very damaged bird. She had
fallen down the chimney when just about to
soar b. the skies, and. landing in a very
dark place. probably thought that there had
been an eclipse Of the sun, or that night had
come on in some manner not accounted for
in her limited astronomy. She maintained
silence three days; she had nothing TO say.
Polly's high aspirations were blighted
from that hour. She was discouraged, dis
appointed bird. She grew silent and pinned
away, and like other bold adventures who
have been brought plump down when just
about TO launch out on the breeZes of fame,
she died of her bruises and of broken heart
Her decline was marked with sincere re-
gret, and there was u sorrowfu tenderness
in her masters tone as he watched her in
these adverse and altered days.

Costly Colleges.

Speaking of the great expenditures and
small results in many of our so-called agri-
cultural colleges, the Americm Agricuitwia
says, with truth 4" In the beginnings of our
agricultural colleges the error fallen into has
been in considering a grand building the
most important thing. Set number Of
earnest men, capable of teaching agriculture
down upon good farm, with a good, large
house and barns upon it, and the co-opera-
ton of good farmer; put up few tempo
rary buildings, il need be, for lecture-rooms
now, and perhaps for stables by-and.by; give
the faculty little money to spend upon
books, apparatus and fitting up; let them
know that they shall have more as fast as
they can show results let all permanent inn
provements be made with a view to the
future and leave the faculty as mham-
pered, in regard to matters of instruction
and discipline, as possible, and success of
the most gratifying character will be almost
certain in any state Of the Union. The
grand establishment, with all desirable sur
roundings, will come in good time with that
practical fitness Of things TO ends which
comes with gradual, healthy growth"
We call this good, sensible talk and IT,,
to the programme laid down above it be ad.
ded that the instruction be put into the
hands of men who believe in industrial edu-
cation, and will work heartily to make it Il
success, that success will be still more com.

But If, on the other hand, the funds are
given in charge TO men who have an utter
and but thinly disguised contempt working
men; TO men who do not hesitate to express
the opinion that industrial education is a
"humbug," and who believe that no agricul-
tural college ever will, or can be successful,
how could anybody be surprised to see an at
tempt made to divert the funds of the insti-
tuition TO uses in accordance with the tastes,
interests and desires Of those men 7 Who

DO 1t Well.

Whatever you do, do it well. A job
sighted, because it is apparently unimpor-
tant, leads to habtual neglect, so that men
degenerate, insensibly into bad workmen.
"That is a good rough job" said a fore
man in our hearing, recently and he meant
that II was piece Of work not elegant in it.
self, but strongly made and well put together.
Training the hand and eye to do work
well, leads individuals to form correct habits
in other respects; and a good workman is,
in most cases, good citizen.
No one need hope to rise above his present
situation who suffers small things TO pass by
unimproyed, or who neglects, metaphori-
cally speaking, to pick up farthing because
il is not a shilling.
Take heart, all who toll all the youths in
humble situations, all in adverse cireumstan-
ces, and those who labor unappreciated. If
it be but to drive the pillow, strive to do it
well if it be but to wax thread, wax it well /;
If only TO cut bolts make good ones or to
blow the bellows, keep the iron hot. 1t is
attention to business that lifts the feet higher
ND on the ladder.

Sleigh Bells.


How many boys and girls know how sleigh
bell, are made z How do you think the lit
tie irpn bah gets inside the bell 1t is too
big to be put in through the holes in the
bell, and yet it is inside. How did it get
there
This little iron ball is called (" the jinglet'
When you shake the sleigh bell it iingles.
When the horse trots, the bells Jingle, jim
gle, jingle. In making the bell, this jinglet
is put inside a little ball of mud, just the
shape OF the inside of the bell Then a
mold is made just the shape Of the outside
Of the bell. This mud ball with the iinglet
inside is placed in the mold of the outside,
and the melted metal is poured in. which
fills up the space between the mud ball and
the mold.
When the mold is taken off, you see a
sleigh bell; but it will not ring, as il is full
of dirt. The hot metal dries the mud that
the ball is made of, so it can all be shaken
out. After the dirt is all shaken out of the
holes in the bell, the little iron iinglet will
still be in the bell, and it will ring all right.
1t took good many years to think out
how 10 make a sleigh bell
