been broken up in this way than in any
other.
If your wife has faults-and whose wife
has not? never tell them to Co. Between.
You had better cut your wife's head off,
and be done with it, for practically both
courses of action would lead to the same
thing.
And we would say the same thing to
the wife. If your husband fails in the
standard of material excellence, keep it to
yourself. If you tell Mrs. B. or Mrs. G.
of it, in less than q week it will be all over
town that you are sorry you ever married,
and that Mr.. A. is brute, unfit for hu-
man society, and that you are thinking
of getting divorced from HIM right
away.
BY all manner of means, let everybody
avoid Go-Betwecns, and if you have any
thing against any man go to him and
tell him yourself and have the thing

PATIENCE.

Beside the toisome way, +
Lonely and dark, by fruits and flowers un-
blest,
Which my worn feet tread sadly, day by day,
Longing in vain for rest,
An angel slowly walks,
With pale, sweet face, and eyes east mcekly
down,
The while, from withered leaves and tiowcrless
stalks,
She wcavcs my fitting crown.
A sweet and patient grace,
A look of firm endurance true ana trled,
OF suffering meekly borne, rests on her face
So pure, SO gloritied. ~
And when my fainting heart
Desponds and murmurs ut its adverse fate,
Then quietly the angels bright lips part,
Whispering softly, "Waitc'
''Paticncew she sweetly saith
"The Fathers mcrcies never come too late:
Grid thee with patient strength and trusting
faith,
And firm endurance-waitw
Angel, behold, wait,
Wearing the thorny crown through all life's
hours
Wait till thy hand shall ope the eternal gate,
And change thOrns to flowers.

Fight With q Heron.

A heron is dangerous bird, ever for
man to attack, as will be seen from
this story OF an encoun}er betwe en- man,
a dog, and heron, published in the Lon
don Field. The heron had been woun-
ded, its left wing being broken by a
shot
1 spied him in large pool, some yards
from the river bank; seemingly, as he
rested on the water, he was unhurt. As
I shouted out, There he is. Sam % the
retriever plunged into the cddying pool
and SWAN to seize his prey. Now the
fight began.
Without swerving an inch, the heron
with his crest erect, and with
scream, darted his formidable beak
straight at the dogs eyes. Sam was puz-
zled. In moment, however, he was at
him again, but the terrible beak of the
heron, as the attack was again renewed,
held him fairly at bay.
Sam now changed his plan; he tried to
circumvcnt his formidable enemy by
swimming round to its back, but the
heron presented bold front at all points
and once more Sam rushedin. The fight
was getting fast and furious. but Sam,
though considerably punished. stuck to
his post, and, though repeated recalled,
would not return without his bird.
There was nothing left to do but to
kill the heron, to prevent his binding the
dog, if he had not already done so. Ac-
cordingly, l raised my gun, when my
companion shouted out, "Don't shoot!
Don't spoil the bird! I'll save the dog"
In an instant he leaped from the bank
into the pool, and, swimming, made for
the heron. The bird now left the dog
and turned on his new assailant, rushing
at him with a scream; In an instant the
heron darted his formidable beak at Mr..
Gwynne Vaughan's eyes but, as he swan
he managed to cover his face: and his
hand only was wounded
Again and again the heron attacked
him, but never succeeded in wounuing
his face. At last, he grabbed the heron
by the legs, drew it under the water, and
struck out for the shore Grasping the
bird by the beak, he was soon on land,
none the worse for his courageous exploit
than wounded hand and wet skin.
Sam, the retriever, was bleeding from
at least five honorable wounds, all within
a quarter of an inch of either eye. It was
courageous fight all around

Fattening Animals.

A very common error among farmers,
which needs corrections the opinion that
animals may be 1attened in few weeks,
and fitted for market by heavy feeding,
or, as it is termed by pushing. Many
farmers do not think Of beginning to fatten
their hogs or cattle for early winter
market until autumn has actually COM
menced. Their food is then suddenly
changed, and they are dosed with large
quantities of grain or meal. This sudden
change often deranges the system, and it
is frequently some time before they re-
cover from it. From observation and in
quiry we find that the most successful
managers adopt a very different course
They feed moderately, with great regu
larity, and for long period. The mos
successful pork raiser that we have me
with commences the fattening of his swine
for the winter market early in the preced-
ing spring, In fact, he keeps his young
swine in good growing condition ali
through the winter. He begins moder-
ately, and increases the amount gradu-
ally. never placing before the animal
more than it can freely eat. With this
treatment, and strict attention to the
comfort and cleanliness of the animal his
spring pigs at ten months usually exceed
three hundred pounds, and have gone
as high as four hundred and fifty pounds
and pigs wintered over five and six
hundred. The corn which is ground and
scalded before feeding, nets him, on an
average, not less than one dollar PEI
tiushel, when the market price of pork is
bve cents per pound.-CAristian Umao;..

eve Passed That.

It's one thing to have an object in life,
it is quite another thing to know when we
are aiming at it. Many begin we'll, but
after time get off the course; then their
life is more likely to grow wrong than
right. The following incident has its
moral for all who are aiming to do right:
During beautiful summers night, on
one of our great lakes, the master Of
boat thought he mi ght take few hours
rest, and intrusted the rudder in the care
of his boy, a somewhat mple-minded
lad. 'sDo you see that star straight be-
fore us?' he said to him pointing to the
Polar star.
-. eyes,
'Well, you have nothing to do but to
keep the boat straight in that direction.'
II understand"
The captain fell asleep. The boy did
the same. The wind changed; the boat
turned out of its course more and more.
till at last it had made a semicircle. The
boy awoke; he wys aitonished to see be-
hind his back the star which had Just
now been straight before him, but he did
not the less continue with firm hand to
steer the boat toward the south, from
whence it had first come.
Two hours after the master in his turn
awoke. He cast one glance upon the
sky and another upon the boy.
"Well, stupid! what are you doing2'
II am still keeping always straig int be-
fore me, as you told me-"
'Ah, indeed! and the Polar star?'
"Oh, the Polar star! Why we passed
that long ago."

The Story of a Pet Cat.

To the editor of the Sun.-Sir: While
reading the San of Sunday, June 18th,
found the article upon "cats." I beg
leave to differ as regards the danger Of
having the animals around, especially at
night. When child lived on the Hud-
son, and had cat that I used to play
with, dressing him up like baby, rock
ing him to sleep, and feeding him from a
bottle. He was several times taken from
me, miles away over the country, but he
always returned, hungry and dirty, ap-
pearing contented to be with me once
more. Instead of struggling when I
dressed him, he would enjoy the opera
ton, lying quiet as long as I remained
with him, but if 1 tried to steal away he
would drag himself after me, hampered
as he was, by his long dress trailing, and
his paws through the sleeves.
When was ten years old, slept alone
in a room across the hall from my sister.
One night she was awakened by hearing
singular noise, and listening for mo
ment discovered that it proceeded from
my room. Entering, she found this cat
lying on my chest, with its mouth close
to mine, drawing in my breath with a
long, slow, sucking motion, producing a
horrid noise. Its eyes were like balls of
fire. My sister drove him away with
violence, he showing fight, and tried to
arouse me. I was nearly unconscious,
and it was some little time, my sister af-
firms, before showed any signs of
life.
The cat remained with me, and was as
much of a pet as ever, only he was never
allowed in the rooms after dark. I have
never felt fear of cats. They seem to
be charmed by my voice and touch
even the widest of them. Notwithstand-
ing, I should advise every nurse and
mother never to leave child alone in a
room with cat, more especially at night,
for they do suck the breath of children,
and it would take only short time to
render child past any help, as shown by
my case. also believe the bite of an
angry cat to be exceedingly poisonous. A
young lady friend of mine was bitten by
strange cat, and thought she would have
to lose her arm, the bite, apparently harm
less, swelling, and the irritation reached
the shoulder. It was truly venomous
wound.
The cat I have now will try and talk
to me, rubbing his head against my face
and climbing from the floor to my shout
der, by my dress, and yet he will bite and
scratch me sometimes, when he feels like
it, and would draw blood if I did not
keep on the watch, and punish him
every time. I never tease him, so he has
no excuse, and is the most amiable cat
existing, apparently; therefore, urge, do
not let children have kittens as plav-
things to squeeze and throw around, for
they are not SAFE AUNTIE KATE.

Several Bosoms With a Single Thought.

An amusing incident happened on a
Kansas City paper the other day. Two
brothers, named Hart, were arrested.
somewhere in the interior, for obtaining
goods under false pretenses. There was
unusual commotion and mystery among
the members of the editorial staff that
evening, and each said unto the other,
" I've got bully thing for to-morrow's
paper just you wait and see;" and, being
asked what that bully thing was, de-
clined to go into further particulars just
then. Next morning the mystery was
solved. There was an editorial note in
the first column as follows:
The Hart Brothers were arrested YES
terday, at for defrauding their cre>li-
tors. They were evidently as the poet
says, "Two Harris that beat as one.''
Half way down the same page was
another editorial paragraph, as follows:
Two Harris that beat their creditors
like one, OF even more, were arrested yes
terday, at. Let us hope that the
righteous Jud ge will, in the words of Cic-
Gro, Soc ct tuum
Over on the second column there was
a display heading, in big black type,
"Two Harris That Beat Like One''; away
down at the foot of the third column was a
little item, surreptitiously inserted by the
advertising clerk about two hearts that
beat as one: and half way down the fourth
was letter from ct. Y. Pr, the ac-
knowledged wit Of the composing room,
addressed to the Editor of the Kansas
City Whangdoodze and asking if that
wasn't case of two hearts (Harts) that
beat as one? The different authors of
this exquisite witticism spent the morn
ing in paying visits of coincidence to each
other, and remarking, with disparaging
shifts, that it would only be in accord
ance with fraternal feeling and news
paper etiquette to let another member
of the staff know when one intended MAX
ing dumfool of himself in specific di-
rection.

Apples Of SodOm.

On the arid shores of that Eastern Sea
whose origin was chastisement and
whose existence is warning, old travel
ers related that there grew tree laden
with fruit marvelously beautiful and lus-
cious to the eye; but when the pilgrim,
wearied by journey across the scorch-
ing sands that encircle the lake, sought
eagerly for refreshment from the juices of
this deceptive fruit, instead of the antici-
pated delight his mouth was filled with
bitterness and ashes. AS in the case of
many another venerable myth of olden
times, modern investigation has threwn
not little doubt even on the existence of
this Dead Sea Apple, but the moral les
son it illustrated is entirely independent
both of the nature Of the phenomenon or
even of its existence. Little need of a
pilgrimage to scenes of Holy Writ to dis
cover that many of the objects from the
ownership of which we have expected
keen qualification, turn out to be sources
of trouble or vexation when actually in
our possession. In this way there are
few among us who have not tasted the
flavor of the apples of Sodom, and it
hardly lessons our distress to reflect that
often our own thoughtlessness, impru-
dence, or misconduct has either caused or
sharpened our disappointment. 49,.
How many have looked forward with
joyful anticipations to some holiday ex-
cursion or festivity the arrival of which
has brought them only WEAKNESS or dis
gust! And these feelings are often the
results of some trifling annoyance, some
petty miscarriages Of our wishes, which
shortly afterwards, is either forgotten as
insignificant or remembered with smile.
Then, again, many man has been so
confident of augmenting his bliss by
purchasing an addition to his acres or
making costly improvementson his home
stead that he has borrowed money and
often mortgaged his land to obtain it. in
order to increase his pleasure in this way,
but in nine cases out Of ten he finds that
he has taken large bite out of al apple
of Sodom, and that to get rid of its bitter
after-taste will take long years of labor,
hardship and anxiety; for happin ess
gained by indebtedness is nearly always
Elusive.
There are not a few farmers who have
expected help and satisfaction from the
ownership of a moving machine or some
other expensive agricultural implement,
and then when, at length, the coveted
treasure has come into their possession,
use it SO carclessly and leave it exposed
SO negligently to injury from the weather
and preventable accidents that the thing
soon becomes either entirely useless or a
source of constant trouble and vexation.
Surely these, too, have learned the taste
of Dead Sea apples
How many father and mother have
yearned as ardently as Hannah of old to
be blessed with children, rejoiced at their
birth and for years dwelt with lingering
