CROSS EXAMINING WITNESSES.

A quick and ready wit is an almost indis'
pensable endowment in good cross.examin'
lug counsel, but the quickest and readiest
sometimes finds his match. "Oh, you say
this gentleman was fifty -fve," said Canning
to pert young woman in the witness-box
"and suppose you now consider yourself
pretty good judge of ages, eha Ah, just 60
Well, how old should you take me to beP'
"Judging by your appearance, sir" replied
the witness, II should take you to be about
sixty. By your question l should suppose
you we're about sixteen" Whether counsel
had any more questions for this lady is not
recorded.
"Now," began another learned gentleman.
rising slowly from among his professional
brethren, and looking very profound, "now,
are you prepared to swear that this mare was
three years old?" "Swear?' returned the
stable-man in the box, Eyes, I'll swear she
was" "And pray, sir, upon what authority
are you prepared to swear it?" "What au'
thority p echoed the witness. eyes, sir, up
on what authority? You are to give me an
answer, and not repeat my question" II
don't see as q man can be expected to answer
a question before he has had time to turn it
over" Nothing can be simpler than the
question put to you. Upon what authority,
| repeat, do you swear to this animals age 2
"Oh, very good authority" "Then why this /,
evasion? Why not state it at once?' "Weli
if YOU must have it, "Must have it!'
interrupted the man Of law, 81 will have it. !"
"Well, then, if you must and will have it, -
said the ostler, with deliberate gravity, II
had it from the mares own mouth"
A particularly witty reply was once made
by well-known English architect, who had
been giving an important opinion, and whose
professional status Mr.. SERGEANT Garrow, the
opposing counsel, was anxious to depreciate.
"You are builder, I believe" began the
serjeaut. mo, sir, am not builder; l
am an architect" "Ah, we'll, builder or
architect, architect or builder. they are pretty
much the same, I suppose" 81 beg your
pardon, sir, I can't admit that; consider
them to be totally different" "Oh, indeed ;
perhaps you will state wherein this great diff
ference consists" Gan architect, sir, con-
ceives the design, prepares the plans, draws
out the speci6cations-in short, supplies the
mind. The builder is merely the machine
the architect the power that puts the machine
together and sets it geing." "Oh, very we'll,
MI. Architect, that will do; very ingenious
distinction without difference. Do you hap
pen to know who was the architect of the
Tower of Babel?" "There was no architect,
sir" replied the witness, "hence the confusion
there"

ag Some years ago, Highlander, being in
Glasgow for the first time, one fine morning
was rather amazed at the streams of people
focking from all quarters toward the end of
the Green, where they hanged the criminals.
He asked passenger what the folks expect
ed to see down there. "A man is to be hang
ed this morning, sir" was the answer. "Oh.
poor man and what are they going to hang
him for?" "Sheep.stealing, sir" "Tut, tut !!
poor stupid man! Why did he not buy them

SALT FOR CABBAGEs--Cabbage.growers
should read the following, which we find in
tie Practical Fruit Recorder 1t may be of
service and should be tried as soon as the
cabbage crop will admit Of it: "a New Jer-
sey gardener considers salt necessary to the
development of cabbages, especially in places
far from the coast. He finds them more crisp,
of better favor and to keep better when salt
is used than without He uses it as follows ::
A few days after setting out the plants, and
when they are damp, either after a rain, or
when the dew is on, I take small dish of
fine salt, and walking among the rows.
sprinkle little pinch of salt on the centre of
each plant. When the leaves begin to grow
I repeat the sailing, and when the centre of
the leaves begin to form the head apply salt
again, scattering it over the leaves. After
this I look them over occasionally and if |
find plants that do not head we'll or appear
diseased, I sprinkle the salt over freely. This
will save all such plants. A quart of salt is
sufficient for FIVE hundred plants in a season,
although more can be used with safety"

The HORSE FANc1ER.-"A neighbor of
mine," says a correspondent of the Rural
Home, "recently informed me that he had lost
most valuable horse by casualty by no
means uncommon. A knowledge of a sim
pie remedy would have prevented this loss.
The horse trod upon nail which entered his
foot. Lameness followed, the nail was extri-
Gated, but lockjaw supervened, resulting in
death. An unfailing remedy in such cases is
muriatic acid. If, when a nail is withdrawn
from horses hoof the hoof should be held
up and some muriatic acid poured into the
wound, neither lameness nor lockjaw need Be
feared. Why the iron should have the effect
which it frequently has, and the rationale of
the remedy, am unable to explain; but OF
the certainty of the counteraction of the dis
ease by this perfectly safe application, am
we'll convinced"

WIDDER spRIGGINs, DAUGHTER.

Twas on beauteous summer morn,
When things were up and comm,
And all among the pumpkin-vlnes,
The humble bees were hummin'
I took an early half mile walk,
As everybody orter,
When in the cowpath was met
BY Widder Spriggins' Daughter.
Here eyes were black as David's ink,
Her cheeks were red as fury,
And one smack of her luscious lips
Would bribe judge or jury.
I bOwed-she curcheyed just the way
Her nice old mar had taught her;
She smiled-and oh my heart was gone
To Widder Spriggins' Daughter.
Says I, "My dear, how do ye dor'
Says she, 81 reckon fine1y;'
Saws I, "Ofall the gals know,
You look the most divinely,"
snatched a kiss-she slapped my face,
In fact just as she orter:
"Behave yourself, how dare you sir!
Cried Widder sprggins' Daughter.
Just then an old rampageous sheep
Who had been feeding near, sir,
Squared off, and like ton of bricks
He took me with his head sir;
I landed in pond, chuck full
OF frogs and filthy water,
And then she stood and larfed, and larfed,
That Widder Spriggins' Daughter.
I rather guess crawed out quick,
Picked up my hat and mizzled,
While loves bright torch so lately lit,
Out in that frog pond fiZzled.
Well, she was married yesterday;
A lawyer chap has got her;
So, I'll forget, if not forgive
The Widder Spriggins' Daughter.

AHoRsE's Foor.-Good horse judges un.
derstand the Importance Of the foot. 1t should
be of medium size, either extreme being sug-
gestive of disease. 1t should be longer at
the ground surface than broad, the heel neith-
er very high or very low. The outer surface
of the hoof should be smooth, the slant about
fifty degrees, and the frog large, elastic and
healthy y-looking. The latter must never be
hammered with. Nature knows how impor.
tant this cushion is, and she will make it just
as the animal needs.

SANS BARGA1N.-General R, as he is
called, had son named Sam who was consid-
cred, by those who knew him best, rather
stupid but that he had distinguished him
self once and proved that he was good at a
trade, there is no denying.
Sam owned dog that was constant
source Of annoyance to the old gent, who
hated dogs in general, and Sans in particu-
lar.
The general never tried to conceal his dis
like, but, on the contrary, showed it in va
rious ways: such as throwing hot water on
his defenseless back, trying, on several occa-
sons, to drown him, and in many ways show
ing him that he was not his friend.
The dog revenged this by giving midnight
serenades under his window, chasing his hens,
killing his young ducks, and by stealing more
rations than two dogs could possibly eat.
He had offered every inducement to Sam to
sell his dog, give him away, kill him, or get
rid of him in some way; but Sam loved his
"dog" and the dog loved him, and Sam vowed
they should not be parted; consequently the
old gentleman was surprised, on coming home
to dinner one day, to hear Sam exclaim:
"Father, I've sold my dog"
"Sold your dog?" said the general. "Well,
I am glad you were sensible enough to sell
him. A dog is nuisance any way. / will
make you present by and by, Sam"
"Yes, sir, got sixteen dollars for him."
"Whatp exclaimed the general.
81 got sixteen dollars for him." said Sam.
"You don't mean to say you got sixteen
dollars for your dog, do your"
"Well, yes" replied Sam, 81 got four pups
worth four dollars apiece"

RECIPE FOR CHICKEN CHoLERA.-I have
found that the SCOT of wood.fres is a perfect
cure for cholera among fowls. Give it to
them in the morning breakfastings, by ma
king dough of corn meal, quite gray with
the SCOT. Eight or ten feeds is generally
enough to stop disease I shut mp those ac-
tually sick, and give them nothing else. 1t
also stimulates the fowl into better health, be-
ing good tonic. Ispent small fortune on
carbolic and other things.
