The TeIi,TnIe Toinatoes.

"where did you get them tOmatoesF
asked an old Long Island farmer last
summer Of a neighbor, whose real estate
yields 4 product Of nil, and on which
there was not tomato vine. His basket
was full Of very fine ripe specimens,
which he thought he recognized. 1t was
not the first time stispiciCn OF his inpes
cunious Ieighbor's honesty had arisen
in his mind.
"where did you get emf" he asked
again.
Bought en-"
"Ahi Let's look at your hands"
With his basket on his arm, he held
out both hands for examination.
"What do you want to look at my
hands for2 There amt nothin' on to
EN-"
The old farmer was washing his own
bands at the same time in tin basin Of
rain water, with q wooden bowl OF soft
brown soap before him.
"No, there amt nothing on EN- that
you can see; but, look a here Set
down your basket and wash EN-. It's
VERY GOBLIN, and your face and hands
look hot"
So saying, he emptied the basin, and
filed it with cold water, pointed to the
soap-dish, and relieved the bearer of his
basket. The first immersion and friction
of the hands in the water let the cat out
of the bag. The fluid at once turned
green, and grew greener every second,
and at length turned an intense dark
green.
"Here, Jim," said the farmer to his
tow headed son, " take in this basket
and empty it, and bring it out ag'in. y
Then, turning to his honest neighbor,
he said: "You hooked them tomatoes
from my patch not half an hour ago.
Three or four of the top ones knew in
minute. Here's your basket"
If any country reader of the foregoing
would test this discovery of theft, LEI
him pick one or two tomatoes next sea
son, separating the vines with his naked
hands, then wash them. There is &
mysterious something about the plant
perfectly colorless, that remains on the
hands till the water removes it.

Attacked by an Eagle.

The Shreveport Na.) Times says !:
Recently United States Deputy Mar
shall Dewing and party went up the
river to investigate the cutting of logs
from the public lands. On Black lake
they discovered an immense eagles nest
in the topmost branches of large tree.
and commenced cutting the tree down.
There was a young eagle in the nest
and when the cutting commenced the
parent birdsmad hostile demonstrations,
swooping down upon the party. The
female was shot and killed. The wing
of the male was broken by shot, and
he was captured after falling in the
water. He was with considerable diff
Guilty taken into the boat, knocking one
of the men in the boat overheard by q
stroke of his wing. The young bird
was killed by the falling of the tree.
The nest was twelve feet in diameter,
and was constructed OF at least three
quarters of cord of wood, some of the
pieces being four feet long and as large
around as a mans leg. The male was
brought down alive. 1t measures sever
feet and two inches from tip to tip.

The days of playful chickenhood are
numbered. The chicken Matching
machine, the chicken-food examining
machine, and now the hydromere, the
mother hen, are two inventions that are
causing the innocent joys of chickenhood
to vanish. This hydromere is an artificial
mother hen for the chickens to brood
under at night, and fly to in moments Of
peril during the day. The hydromere il
a French invention, and strikingly
resembles real hen in all but one par
ticular, viz: Beneath its downy breast,
instead of warm heart, there is only
warm water.

A MrlhNniched Pair.

A lady travelling in England tells the
following: Along with my brother, who
was collecting matter for a work he was
about to publish, I visited the interest
ing town Of Hexham - interesting at
least to bin, for il was a fine field for
historical research-although, for my
own part, found little TO admire beside
its ancient church. The circumstance
which more than anything else secured
the dingy town a lasting place in my
memory was our taking a lodging with
an extraordinary pair-an old man and
woman, husband and wife, who lived by
themselves without child or servant,
subsisting on the letting of their parlor
and two bedrooms. They were tall,
thin and erect, though each seventy
years of age. When we knocked at the
door for admittance, they answered it
together; if we rang the bell, the hus-
band and wife invariably appeared side
by side; all our requests and demands
were received by both, and executed
with the utmost nicely and eIactness.
The first night, arriving late by the
coach from Newcastle, ard merely re-
quiring good fire and our tea, we were
puzzled to understand the reason of this
double attendance; and 1 remember my
brother rather irreverently wondering
whether we were always to be waited
upon by these Siamese twins. On ring
ing the bell to retire for the night, beth
appeared as usual-the wife carrying the
bedroom candlestick, the husband at the
door. gave her directions about break
fast for the following morning, when the
husband from the door quickly answered
for her.
depend upon it, she is dumb, v
whispered my brother.
But this was not the case, though she
rarely made use OF the faculty of speech.
They both attended me into my bedroom
when the old lady, seeing me look with
some surprise toward her husband, said:
There's no ofense meant, ma am, by
my husband coming with me into the
chamber-he's stone blind"
"Poor man |" 1 exclaimed. "But
why, then, does he not sit still? Why
does he accompany you everywhere"
It's no use, ma'am, your speaking to
my old woman, said the husband; "she
can't hear you she's quite deaf"
was astonished. Here was compen-
sation Gould pair be better matched ?
Man and wife were indeed one flesh; for
he saw with her eyes and she heard with
his ears 1t was beautiful to me after
ward to watch the old man and woman
in their inseparableness. Their sym
pathy with each other was as swift as
electricity, and made their deprivations
as naught.

Sunset In the HartZ Mountains,

Standing on the cliff, eight hundred
feet above the valley, we looked down
into its quiet shadows, where tiny cas-
cades went leaping over the stones to
swell the stream, and across to Hexen-
tanzplatz-a broad open plateau still
higher than the Rosstrappe-and far
away we saw the weird form of the
Broken, dimly visible behind its misty
veil. Meadows and green pastures lay
now in sunshine, now in shade from the
light clouds floating above level plains
studded with cities and villages stretch
ed away, and were lost in vapor. We
were hemmed in by mountains, some of
which were so gaunt and stony that no
smallest plant could grow thereon,
while others were gay with blossoms
and rich with foliage. Suddenly one
peak after another was lost in rain
showers were falling all about us, the
drops glistening like gems in the sun
shine. The valley lay in darkest gloom,
and we were in the midst of clear rays
from the setting sun. Soon the tops Of
the trees-the pale birch, the dark green
frs, pine, oak, and beech--were bright.
ly defined against the sky, where the
clouds burst into sudden glory of red
and gold; rainbow rested on the
mountain-tops, spanned the valley
crept down the sides, and was lost il
night far, far below.
Elsewhere in the world there are
loftier heights, softer landscapes
grander waterfalls !; hut in variety o
tint and depth of color, none of then
can surpass a sunset on the Ros
strappe. -Harper's Magazine.
