mistake to cultivate tendency to eat
little That is the best COW which eats
most and makes the best use of the food
eaten.
Punch summed up its " advice to those
contemplating marriage" in the one
word, "don't." Many by their prac-
tice and their teaching sum up their ad-
vice to dairymen thinking of breeding
their own stock in the same word.
Purchasing has, in the past, fire.
quently paid better than breed
ing. But purchasing is not
so sure to secure good results as
is breeding. The tendency of rely ing on
purchasing, destroying the calves, and
at last selling the cows, is to steadily
lower the average quality of the dairy
stock. In the future the average prof
its of the dairymen are not to be so
large as in the past, and breeding his
own stock gives double chance for AZ
least small profit, as well as reduces
the chances of loss. 1t will often pay
the dairyman to combine beef-cattle
rearing with dairy farming. EXcep-
tional cases not counted, dairymen can
better afford to rear their own stock than
to buy them. Dairymen often go to
general farmers for their cows IL
would seem more natural thing for
dairymen to secure such re nutation as
breeders that general farmers and citi-
zens should look to them for a supply OF
cows.

In League With Burglars.

A Kalamazoo (Mich.) special to the
Chicago Tribune, Sth, says: Last night
between IL and II O'Clock the residence
of J. Ward was broken into, and the
burglars, going to the bed of Ward and
his wife, drew revolvers and threatened
to shoot Mrs. Ward if she stirred or ut
tered cry. They paid no attention to
Mr.. Ward, who was quiet during the
proceedings. Mrs. Ward, in spite OF
the threats and revolvers thrust in her
face, sprang up, and, running to the
woodshed, got an AK, and returning
rushed at one of the burglars and struck
him over the shoulder The man jump
ed toward her as she struck, so that on
ly portion of the blade of the AK touch
ed him. While this was going on the
other burglar ran upstairs to get the
money, which was known to be in the
house, and Mrs. Ward states that her
husband informed them where it was
concealed. They found under the mat
tress in a bed a pocket-book, and with
this they rushed ont to make their es-
cape, which was necessary, as con-
siderable noise had awakened
their neighbors. Officer O'Brien
was soon on the spot, and arrested
shortly after one Charles Delaney, who
has since been identified as one of the
burglars. Ward and the other burglar
have not yet been found. 1t seems that
Mrs. Ward had that day received some
$3.50, and hid it in her bed, as she.was
anxious TO keep it out of her husbands
hands He had entered into conspir-
acy with these men to come as burglars
to his house, the front door Of which
had been left open for them. Mrs. Ward
had during the afternoon changed the
place of concealment, fearing that her
husband had learned where it was, which
seems to have been the case.
The burglar arrested had clip on
the shoulder making fresh wound, and
this assisted to identify him, though
Mrs Ward, on being confronted with
him. at once located him as the burglar
watching her while his pal was up
stairs. 1t seems to have been delib-
crate conspiracy between her husband
and these men TO obtain the money as
aforesaid, and whack up after the escape
was perfected.

Don't Smoke Where the Canary Is.

A city gentleman has a beautiful can
airy bird, which has been kept for some
time in his reading-room, as the gentle
man was very fond of hearing the bird
sing. Now,it so happened that the cana
rvs cage hung just above the chair in
which the gentleman used to sit and
smoke. As time wore on it was noticed
that the bird had ceased TO sing as much
as formerly. After while the bird
ceased to sing altogether.
Finally, one day the bird was observ-
ed wildly endeavoring to keep on its
perch, and tloundering about the cage
as though dizzy and very weak. 1t &C.
CURED to the gentlemen and his wife
that perhaps the tobacco smoke might
have something to do with the birds
strange condition, and it was taken into
another room. The pure air seemed to
have an effect. In a day or two it was
heard singing, though in sweet and
tremulous voice. After a week had gone
by it began to send forth notes of purity
and clearness, and at the end of fort
night it was itself again.-Kingston

FASHION NOTES.

Dark wine and garnet are the favor
tie colors for child ems hosiery.
Satin ribbon is used more than gros
grain for bonnet trimmings and strings.
"A novelty and luxury is the per-
fumed glove; the odor is made delicate
and lasting.
Handsome ties are q combination of
India twilled silk in pale tints and white
lace, which is appliqued on.
The style of jewelry most in vogue
in Paris is the Etruscan A series of
medalliOns linked together with gold
chains form the necklace.
-Merinos are quite overlaid this win
ter by the handsome cashmeres which
ladies mix with almost as much silk as
cashmere for home toilets exclusively.
-Overskirts are draperies instead of
precise designs, and when the costume
is intended for ball the train is de-
cidedly Insignificant, if, indeed, it exists
at all.
White silk stocs ings for bridal wear
are either plain, clicked or embroidered
on the side seams or instep, or have
medallions or Ovals inserted in the in
step or sides of fine laces.
There is an effort to do away with
basque bodices for young ladies. and to
revive the pointed bodices of few years
ago, also the short round Josephine
bodice, with or without Il very wide belt.
"A New York wedding nearly ended
in a tragedy the other day. Tie bride
and bride maids stood so near register
that at different times during the cere-
mony and reception their trains lay up
on il, and the white ruflles which trim
med them were scorched and almost
ignited.
Transparent sleeves are much worn
with dresses of thick material, and this
is convenient fashion for those who
have black velvet or satin toilets, as q
variety can be produced by inserting
long sleeves made either of Breton lace
and white net, or of black brussels net
and white lace.
The newest hats for young girls in
their teens are of felt, high crowned,
with square tops, trimme with three
rows Oi lNcu-Wlue TlODOn III DanUs
placed quite far apart around the crown.
The brims roll in Derby shape. Other
felt hats have d scarf of brown or navy
blue satin, with white polka dots.
The ribbons used for lingerie,
jabots, neckties and all similar articles
are mostly white. Long loops of satin
ribbon are much liked. Feathers, birds
and insects are used for ladies' coitfdres,
and young ladies prefer ribbons. bows
and puifs. The hair is still dressed
quite high on the head, and taken up in
the back, although not as tightly as it
has been. The hair is also worn twisted
and falling loosely on the neck.
The imitation diamonds made of
Rhine pebbles are now used in Paris for
many purposes. There are not only
diamond buttons, mounted like solitaire,
or in clusters, but buckles for the shoes
and belts in all conceivable designs.
There are also fastenings for necklaces
and bracelets of velvet, and very small
buckles to fasten the ribbon loops which
are placed down the front of dresses
and on the lower part of sleeves. Ear
rings, crosses and ornamental pins are
also made of these stones.
