John Burroughs on Cows"

Blessed is he whose youth was passed
upon the farm, and if it was dairy
farm his memories will be all the more
fragrant. The driving of the COWS to
and from the pasture, every day and
every season for years-how much of
summer and of nature he got into him
on these journeys What rambles and
excursions did this errand furnish the
excuse for The birds and birds nests,
the berries, the squirrels, the wood
chucks, the beech woods with their
treasures into which the COWS loved so to
wander and to browse, the fragrant
wintergreens and hundred nameless
adventures all strung upon that brief
journey of half mile to and from the
remote pastures. Sometimes one COW
or two will be missing when the herd is
brought home at night then to hunt
them up is another adventure. Ny
grandfather went out one night to look
up an absentee from the yard, when he
heard something in the brush and out
stepped bear into the path before him.
Every Sunday morning the COWS must
be salted. The farm-boy takes a pail
with three or four quarts of coarse salt
and, followed by the eager herd, goes to
the field and deposits the salt in hand
fuls upon smooth stones and rocks
and upon clean places on the turf. If
you want to know how good salt is, see
a COW eat it. She gives the true saline
smack. How she dwells upon it and
g1aws the sward and licks the stones
where il has been deposited The COW
is the most delightful feeder among ami
mails. 1t makes ones mouth water to
see her eat pumpkins, and to see her at
a pile of apples is distracting. How she
sweeps off the delectable grass The
sound of her grazing is appetizing; the
grass betrays all its sweetness and sue
,ulency in parting under her sickle. -

A Whole Family Murdered.

One of the most cruel murders ever
perpetrated occurred at Vincennes, Ind.
one night, not long ago. The farm
where the murder occurred is situated
about four miles east of the city and
about 200 yards from the Evansville
railroad. A dense forest of scrub oak is
near the house on two sides, north and
west, the land on the south and east
being cultivated. The house is quaint
old structure, and was occupied by John
d. Vacelot, with his family-a wife and
two sons. These were the victims.
Pierre Provost, the hired man, who was
arrested lived also in the house. The
house consists of three rooms.
The two boys-Frank, sixteen years,
and John, fourteen years old-were
found in bed in one room. Their heads
were horribly mangled by repeated
blows from an axe. In the door con-
Meeting this room with one occupied by
Vacelot and his wife, lay the old man,
covered with cuts and bruises, there
being nine gashes on his head and three
on his arms and breast. He was evil

was the matter when he was attacked.

horribly mutileted and her throat cut,
The jugular vein being severed. Three
axes were found smeared with blood,
only one, however, showing marks of
use. Provost claimed to have escaped
through a window, but examination
shows the window fastened down and
cobwebs across on the outside. He also
stated that blow was struck at him
With an axe he jumped out. The sill of
the window shows blow from an axe,
but an indentation on the low rail of the
window sash shows conclusively that the
blow was struck with the window closed.
The sight in the house was sickening
and horrible in tho extreme. The floor
was covered with blood the walls and
ceiling were spattered with it, and the
bed-clothes were literally soaked in
bloo?. Vacelot was an old Frenchman
Of quiet ways, and we'll known as an up
right, honest farmer. He was ffty-f five
years old, and his wife was about fifty.
No cause was assigned for the deed, save
that Vacelot had just received about
800 as the proceeds of sale of cattle,
which was supposed to be in his house.

A Faithful COMPANION.

MIR. Stanley, in his expedition through
Africa, took five dogs with him, but no
one of them survived the journey. The
last one of them, noble bulldog, call
ed "Bull," travelled over 800 miles,
and died at length from sheer exhaus-
ton. He was faithful to the last.
Though he had often staggered and
moaned, he made strenuous efforts 10
keep up. but at last, lying down in the
path, he plaintively bemoaned the weak
ness of body that had conquered his
will, and soon after died, his eyes to the
last looking forward along the track he
had SO brayely tried to follow"
Bulls" grief was almost human
when he lost his last companion, Jack, a
young dog, killed by a vicious COW.
"Grave and deliberate from years and
long travel, he walked round the body
two or three times, examining it care
fully, and then advanced to me with his
honest eyes wide open. as If to ask:
What has caused this2 Receiving no
answer, he went and sat down with his
back to me, solemn and sad, as though
he were ruminating despondingly on the
evils which beset dog and man alike in
this harsh and wicked world.

Churn Slowly.

A little maid in the morning sun
Stood merrily singing and churning-
"Oh, how wish this butter was done,
Then of to the fields I'd be turning y
So she hurried the dasher up and down
Till the farmer called, with a half made
frown,
"Churn slowly
Don't ply the daeher, so fast, my Gear,
It's not 80 good for the butter,
And will make your arms ache, too, l fear;
And put you oil in Hutter-
For this is rule, wherever we turn,
Don't be in haste whenever you churn-
Churn slowly
II you'd see your butter come nice and sweet
Don't churn with nervous jerking,
But ply the dasher slowly and neat
You'll hardly know that you're working;
And when the tutter has come, you'll say,
Yes, this is surely the very best way
Churn slowly ~
Now, little folks, do you think that you
lesson can find in butter2
Don't be in haste, whatever you do,
Or get yourself in flutter;
And while you stand at lifes great churn,
Let the farmers words to you return,

Burlington Hawk.Eyetems,

We can't see why the world should be
so hard on rats because they desert

people to think how awfully the sinking
ship would go back ON the rats if they
would only stand by it?
