or three times, and each time checked, as it
seemed, by force, and accompanied by
| sharp, savage growl.
Rushing out to the door, whence the sound
came, we found poor Madame Guillot (for this
was her nancy on her back, securely held
down by Fury, whom Davie and Frank were
trying to remove, without success. Fury's
heavy paw was flung across her throat, and it
was only when he raised it for an instant that
Madame was able to scream. When she did
scream, she was at once checked by the
| downcoming Of fhe heavy paw, accompan-
| shaking of her ample petticoats. Beyond her
fright and her shaking, the good woman was
none the worse, and of these che seemed to
| think little, for the instant We had her on her
| feet, she broke from us and rushed again into
| the very jaws Of Fury. The dog, however, was
too many for her, and instantly had her on
her back as before. But Helen had seen some
| thing now. There it was indeed, the t'little
shoe"-the second red shoe, companion to the
one found in the lane. 1t was lying just out
| side Fury's kennel, and the light fell full up
! on it from the lantern. in an in

| not only was it the missing shoe but that one

! one OF the missing legs was attached to the

body attached to the legl BY the leg, in fact,
the missing Bertie was dragged out covered
little fists, and just waking up from a very
sound sleep in which he had been indulgiug

lost his ward, at once liberated Madam Gull

Binding With Wire.

There is a. determined effort being
made by millers in the great milling
states of the West to use every means III
their power to have the use Of wire done
away with in the binding of grain. The
feeling against this means of binding has
been growing one, and to our mind, the
evil, undoubtedly very serious one to
millers, has been aggravated bv the want
of care among many threshers and farmers
in working threshing machies.
The Prairie Farmer long ago called
attention to the disabilities that must re.
suit to the grain and also the straw, when
tina wire was allowed to be passed
through the threesher with the sheaves,
and advised that the greatest care be used
in clearing the wire bands from the
sheaves before feeding to the machines.
1t is claimed, that not only does it
mingle with the straw, and 80, eaten by
the stock causes serious trouble, but it
enters the bran after being further ground
by the stones, and is highly dangerous
when fed to stock: This is however an
co parte claim. That wire in the wheat
is serious detriment to milling, so far
as the stones and the sitting bolts are
concerned, there is no doubt, yet we
think that a careful examination will
show that the wire is more apt to be rolled
or twisted up in passing between the
stones and cast out than it is to be ground
fine. We think the action of the Mime
sofa millers in their resolution that the
price of wheat be degraded 10 eonts per
bushel under corresponding grade in pur-
chase of any wheat containing wire, to be
obnoxious in the extreme.
The damage to the grain for miliers'
use could never, under any ordinary
event, amount to anything like the price
stated, and a far inference is that the
Minnesota mil]ers have prescribed this
acute remedy with view to driving wire
