"Have you heard Jenny Lind, sir ?" in
quired my Autinous of the stables.
Eyes, often."
"Great woman, sir. Don't you think
soH"
at do"
"She was here last week sir.-Get. up,
Charlie"
ibid you hear herr" asked.
"Yes, sir, and 1 drove with her 10 the
Falls,-that is, Tom Higgins drove, but I
sal on the box"
And was she pleased?"
Eyes, sir; only when she was going TO
see the Falls, everybody in the hotel ran
to the door to look at her, so she went back
to her room, and then slipped out of the
back door. But there was something let
Ter than that, SIR"
"What was that2"
"She gave Tom Higgins fifty dollars
when he drove her back. But there was
something still better than that, SIR"
"Indeedl what was that2"
"Why, sir, as we came back we passed n
little wood, and she stopped the carriage
and stepped out with the rest of the party,
and me and Tom Higgins, and went into
the wood. 1t was towards sunset and the
wood was beautiful. She walked about
little, and picked up flowers, and sung,
like TO herself, as if it were pleasant. By
and by she sat down upon a rock and be-
gan to sing aloud. But before she stopped
a little bird came and sat upon the bough
close by us. saw it, sir, with my own
eyes, the whole of it,-and when Jenny
Lind had done, he began 10 sing and shout
away like she did. While he was singing
she looked delighted, and when he stopped
she sang again and-oh it was beautiful
sir. But the little bird wouldn't give it
up, and he sang again, but not until she
had done. Then Jenny Lind sang.as well
as ever she could. Her voice seemed to
fill the woods all up with music, and when
1t was over the little bird was still for
while, but tried it again in q few moments.
He couldn't do il sir. He sang very bad,
and then the foreign gentleman with Jen-
ny Lind laughed, and they all came back
to the carriage. From "Lotos-E Eating"

Canada ThIstIes--Their Bene2t nnd
Damage.


A farmer anxiously inquiries of ms how
he can possibly kill dense patch Of sever
RI acres of Canada thlstles. He will per-
haps be startled If we should tell him that
we would rather have a field filled
with dense growth of these thistles by
the middle Of June, on strong soil, than
to have a bare field or badly seeded pas
ture. Next to red clover, the roots, stems
and leaves of the Canada thistle are one of
the best green crops 10 pillow under. The
roots are powerful loOseners of the soil,
and the tops, when well rotted, hely to in
crease its fertility. Pillow them under with
a chain on the pillow, when just coming in
to blossom, and they will soon rot In the
soil. If Left little later, the blowing will
be more destructive to the plants, but they
will not rot quite so quickly. If the plow-
ing is deeply and thoroughly done, they
will not be seen above the surface for a
month. But the very moment the first
green point is seen peepng, pillow the land
again, and repeat 1t just often enough TO
keep them constantly smolhered. BY
the Goth Of September or LIST Of October,
the thistles will be effectually killed, and
will never again make their appearance,
while the rotted stems aud leaves will have
increased the fertility of the land. Usual
ly about four plowings will have done the
work effectually, at the same time that it
will have rendered the field mellow like a
garden, and destroyed most of tie other
weeds that may have been in the soil. All
perennial-ro weeds, IL kept under,
will be destroyed, and all the seeds of an
nuals that have been thrown up near
enough to the surface 10 germinate, will
share the same fate.
We have never found any difficulty in
killing patches of Canada thistles in sin
gle season by few plowings, if the soil is
of heavy or clayey character, so as to rest
compactly upon them when they are tnrn-
ed under. On lighter soil, more care and
moro frequent blowing is necessary. II
there arc any large stones, stumps or other
distractions TO free and perfect blowing,
the thistles will not be destroyed at those
places; or If they line boundary fences,
where the pillow cannot reach them, they
will of course escape, aud other modes oil
clearing them out, or the removal of the
fences will be necessary Country Gentle.

Every year increases the pol,u.al-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and ericct-
cd preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silkcn.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all erul tons
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
ont, as it stimulates and noGrishc'
the hair-glands. By its use, tie hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create n new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most Geo
nomical HAIR DREssING ever used
as it requires fewer applications
and gives the hair Il splendid, glossy
appearance. A. a. Hayes, Mp,
State Assaycr of Massachusetts, says
The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and l consider it the Best PEEPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"
