BANNER OF PULASKI.

When the dyEee is .! no nsof day
Through the chancel shot it's ray,
Far the gIimmerlng tapers shed
Faint light on the cowled head.
And the censor burning swung
Where before the altar hung
That proud banner, which with prayer
Had been consecrated there.
And tho nuns sweet hymn was heard the
while
Sung low, in the plain, mysterious aisle
Take thy banner! May it wave
Proudly e'er the good and bravo,
When the battle distant wall
Breaks the Sabbath of our vale;
w hen the clariou's music thrills
Through the heart of those lone hills;
When the spear in conflict shakes,
And the strong lance, shivering breaks.
Take thy banner! And beneath
The war-cloud's encircling W reath
| Guard it till our homes are free !;
Guard it, God will prosper thee!
In the dark and trying hour,
In the breaking forth of power,
In the rush Of steeds and men,
His right hand will shield thee then.
| Take thy banner, but when night
Closes round the CHASTITY fight,
If the vanquished warrior bows,
Spare him! By our holy VOWS,
By our prayers and many tears,
BY the mercy which endears.
Spare him! he our love hath share d
Spare him ! as thou wouldst be spared.
Take thy banner, and if e'er
Thou shouldst press the soldiers bier,
And the muff1ed drum should beat
To the tread of mournful feet,
Then this crimson flag shall be
Martial cloak and shroud for thee.
And the warrior took that banner proud
And it was his martial cload and shroud

A Hill Pull of Reptiles,

In the extension of the Central
Branch road from Beloit TO Cawker
City the line passes through the town
of Glen Elder, Kansas. A short distance
from Glen Elder on the Solomon River,
is steep, rocky bluff, about fifty-five
feet high, large portion Of which had
to be blasted away to make room for
the road bed. A few days ago. while
the excavation was in progress, blast
of nitroglycerine caps and giant pow
der tore off an unusully large part of
bluff, and down the declivity there
come writhing and rolling bunch of
snakes, which Mr.. Beeson assures us
was almost as large as barrel. They
were of different varieties, rattlesnakes
predominating, with racers, adders,
garters. etc. When first disturbed
from their warm bed they were active
and dangerous, but coming out in the
severe cold they were soon oompara-
lively harmless, and were killed by the
men withou. much trouble, or covered
up in the dump by earth and stone.
But this is small portion of the story.
Every day and every blast, since the
first batch appeared, has brought an
other huge bundle of reptiles. Every
hour, a moving, writhing lump rolls
down the hills only to separate at the
foot, and what escape the laborer's pick
and shovel, crawl OF to get covered up
in the dump. Thousands have been
unearthed and killed, and every blast
brings thousands more, far rivaling in
number the famous snake den of Con-
cordia. Not single case of snake bite
has yet occurred, Notwithstanding it is
many times almost impossible to avoid
stepping on them. Mr.. Beeson says
there are no unusual monsters among
them, the greater majority of them be-
ing as large round as a mans wrist
and about three or three and half feet
long. He also says that farmers for
five miles around tell him that this is
the regular winter den for these vene-
nous creatures, and that during tie fall
the snakes i'm that country, which are
discovered, are headed liz the direction
of the bluffs, and the only way they
can be turned from their course Is to
kill them. 1t is said to be one of the
most remarkable sights to lock upon,
and hundreds from the surrounding
country visit the Quarries to see the
snakes.

The Farmer and His Money

King Frederick of Prussia, when he
was out riding one day, saw an old
farmer who was plowing his field and
singing cheerfully over his work"
"You must be well off, old man, -
cried the King. "Does this acre be-
long to you Oh which you so industri-
ously labor2"
"No, sir" replied the man, who of
course had no idea that he was speak
ing to the King; 81 am not so rich as
that; plow for wages"
''How much do you earn each day" :"
asked the King.
Eight groschen," returned the man.
That would be about ninety-five cents
of our money.
THAT is very little" said the King.
lean you get along with it?"
'Get along. yes indeed, and have
something left.''
''How do you manager"
swell, ".said the farmer, smiling, al
will tell you. Two grocshen are for
myself and wife; With two L pay my
debts, and two | give away for the
Lord s sake"
''This is mystery which | cannot
solve," said the King.
''Then l must solve it for you," said
the farmer. 81 have two old parents
at home, who kept me and cared for
me when | was young and weak, and
needed care. Now that they are old
and weak, am glad to keep and care
for them. This is my debt, and it
takes two groschen a day to pay it.
Two more l spend on my childrens'
schooling. If they are living when
their mother and l are old, they will
keep us and pay back what l lend.
Then with my last two groschen sup
port my two sick sisters who cannot
support themselves. OF course | am
not compelled to give them the money,
but do it for the Lords sake
"Well done, my man," cried the
King, as he finished; ''now / am going
to give you something to guess. Have
you ever seen me before ~
NO." said the farmer.
"In less than five minutes you shall
see me fifty times, and carry in your
pocket fifty of my likenesses."
This is indeed riddle which | can
not solve" said the farmer.
''Then l will solve it for you," said
the king; and with that he put his
hand into his pocket and pulling out
fifty gold pieces, placed them in the
hand of the farmer. 1.-The coin is gen.
uine," said the King; ''for it also comes
from our Lord God, and am his pay
master. l bid you goodbye"
And he rode off, leaving the old man
overwhelmed with surprise and delight
at the singular interview.

Just after | left Honecoye Falls, a

pathy for him. am always sorry for

But this longing is only momentary.
1t passes away as soon as l see an unu-
sually tall man, You see, very tall
man is always pursued, haunted by one
unvarying joke. Every short or ordi-
nary sized man that approaches him
throws back his head, affects to gaze up
into the heavens with a very painful
effort, and asks, ''Isn't 1t pretty cold
up where you are?" just watch the
next short man you see meet a tall one
and see if this conundrum doesn't fol-
low the first greeting. Just watch and
see if you do not ask it yourself. And
this must be dreadfully wear-in on the
tall man. 1haye observed that as a rule
big men, tall men, are good-natured. IL
is we little fellows who have waspisb
tempers. So the tall man never resents
this venerable joke by sitting down on
the man who gets it off. He smiles
drearily, and with a weary effort to
appear interested, and tries to look as
though he had never heard it before
1t must be perfect torture for the tall
man to hear this question fifty times a
day for thirty or forty years. Some
times, when | hear a dozen men ask n
tall man of my acquaintance this oues-
ton, in direct succession, and see him
endure it so patiently, wish was the

the freezing point, and that the heat
which this great current disperses into
the air above it, if converted into pow
er, would be equal TO the horsepower
of 400. 100000 of the largest iron-clad
men of war. 1t is this heat which, car

VERBENAs. - Verbenas, to live and
flourish in the house, must be raised
from young shoots, not from layers
from old plants. They require cool
room, heated TO only about fifty degrees
in the day, and falling to forty five de-
grees at night, or even less than this.
Give them plenty of air when there is
no frost in it, and place them so that
they will get all the sun possible. They
like best a sandy soil, fertilized once a
week with ammonia. This will cause
them to grow rapidly, and put on dark,
green foliage. Shower them every
week to keep them free from the ver-
bena, mite and the green aphis. Pinch
them; back them well to keep them
from growing Struggling. They may
be raised from seeds in the house, and
the seeds must be soaked over night.
Give them great deal of sand, and
plenty of moisture.

SCIENTIFIC.

To Cut Glass Without a Diamond
Carpenters, joiners, and cabinet-makers
are frequently called upon to fit glass to
window frames or sashes where no
glass has been prepared to suit; under
such circumstances it would be well to
know how to cut glass to answer their
purposes, without the aid of diamond.
Many persons may not be aware that
glass can be cut under water with ease,
to almost any shape, by simply using a
pair OF shears or strong scissors. In
order to insure success, two points must
be attended to: first, and most import
ant, the glass must be kept quite level
in the water while the scissors are ap-
piled; and secondly, to avoid risk, it is
better 10 begin the cutting by taking of
small pieces at the corners and along
the edges, aud so reduce the shape
gradually to that required, as, if any
attempt is made to cut the glass all al
once TO the shape, as We should cut a
cardboard, IL will n ost likely break
ust where il is not wanted. Some kinds
of glass cut better than others, the soft
glasses being the best for this purpose.
The scissors need not be at all sharp,
as their action does not appear to de-
pend on the state of the edge presented
to the glass. When the operation goes
on well, the glass breaks away from the
scissors in small pieces in a straight
line with the blades. This method OF
cutting glass has often been of service,
when a diamond has been laid at hand,
for cutting ovals and segments, and
though the edges are not so smooth ai
might be desired for some purposes,
yet il will answer in a great many
cases. The two hints given above, il
strictly followed, will always insure
success.
