The Republican party which incurred

1t was the small boy. saws I

1t was the small boy, says the
Baltimore American, that tied the
brace of baIeful tomato cans to a
ours tail and sent him down Charles

BILE promenade. 1t ws.s he who
slung the two cats, tied together
with string at the tips OF their
caudal excrescences, over the door
knob of a wealthy citizen on Mount
Vernon place, thereby causing an
uproar in the neighborhood from
which it has not yet recovered; and
many other sportlve little jests may
be laid at his door. Yesterday he
turned up in a new place. He

fellow from his earliest day, and to
this hounds tail he attached
strongly the end of the ball of cord
which, as all know, rests in a case

Chinese Feet Distortion

Miss Norwood, a lady in the
American mission at Swallow, has
given some interesting particulars
as to the feet distortion in China.
This ahominable barbarism is de
termIped by the rank and wealth of
those who practice it. 1t is vehe-
mently opposed by the Hakkas,
and where people of this province
who, happily for Chinese women,
seem to have nomadIc habits
settle it begins to disappear. OF
the women attending the mission
airy schools in Swallow, about 60
per cent have their feet bound.
The binding does not take place
until after a child has learned to
walk. The pain is intense when
the process is performed in the case
Of an aduit, and a source of dread
full discomfort in any case; yet the
desire to have small feet is so in
tense that girls will slyly tighten
their own bandages in spite of
the pain. This binding, the Chi
nese themselves admit, often pro
duces, among other evils, blind
ness.

Waste in Feeding Inferior Stock,

In discussing the subject of waste
in feeding a western writer makes a
strong point in favor of breeding
good stock by affirming it as ga
well settled fact that Il large per
cent. of the food of poorly bred
stock is utterly wasted. Only well
bred stock of any kind have good
for assimilatiug their food.
When a given quantity of iced may
with confidence be relied upon to
make ten pounds OF beet, pork, etc,
when fed to well bred stock, it is a
fact of all experience that when fed
to poorly bred animals it will fall
large per cent. short of that num-
Der of pounds. The difference, as
stated, lies ic the widely
different capacity to assimilate and
digest. SO it is that the laws of
breeding lie at the bottom of
the matter. Farmers and stock
men, when considering the matter
of stock on the farm should COnsid-
er whether it is their interest to be
content with that class of low bred
stock which certainly results in
farm waste. Especially so when
with good animals they can soon
bring up their stock to high grades.
A good one at the herd may cost
hundred or two dollars, but not
half so much as the usual annual
waste OF food and time"

Little THINGS.

made up of little things. Wealth
is not indispensable in securing
comfort and happiness. The fami-

costly damask and expensive china,
as we have seen in many hum BILE
household, with snow white home
spun cloth, and the plainest ware;
and a simple bed, so it is clean and
we'll made, may be just as inviting
as the more elegant couch made of

other things which make up the
furniture OF the house. Because
money is scarce, the house need not

One Hundred Crickets,

Miss Lucille Clinton, a handsome
young artist, who leads a kind of
hermit life in her studio, at Broad
way and Eighteenth street, is in
love with crickets and cats. About
ten years-ago Miss Clinton, being a
young-very young--school girl,
read Dickens story of THE Crick
ct on the Hearth" Miss Clinton
was so affected by the story that
she determined to have cricket at
any cost. She hunted the fields for
DAYS and weeks before she even
heard a cricket, and it was a long
time after she did hear the first
cricket that she was able to find
and capture one, so deceptive is the
voice and so shy are the move.
plents of the crickets. Then it was
a long time before the young adj
mirer of crickets learned enough
about the wants and habits of those
sprightly creatures to be able to
carry them through the winter
alive and bring up the young in the
spring, She was very patient,
though, and now what Miss Clinton
doesn't know about crickets isn't
worth knowing. She has large
"ternery' full of crjckets, and
large quantity of eggs that are ex-
pected to produce a good many
more crickets, if no misfortune
happens.
Last evening Miss Clinton gave
a SOFT of cricket soiree, having in
vited a number of persons in to hear
the crickets sing. The concert was
given by about one hundred stall
wart crickets. The listeners, all
but Miss Clinton, were ready to
make affidavit that all the crickets
sang exactly alike and dreadfully
out of tune. Miss Clinton was
equally positive that each
cricket had a voice that differed
from the voices OF all the other
crickets, and she ought to know.
"Every time l go to the country"
said the interesting young artist,

Raising Calves,

Now the calves are beginning to
arrive, and it is safe TO assume that
the majority of those dropped dur
ing the next sixty days will be
raised. See to it that they are well
raised. Remember that every week
added to an animals age increases
in proportion the cost of every
pound added to its weight. Raise
fewer of them, and raise them bet
ter. Feed literally, but judlcious-
ly Five dollars expended upon
the calf during its first six months
will bring more net profit than ten
dollars after it is three years old.
The sooner calves learn to lick up a
little bran, or MUNICH a few oats, the
better, and they will do it very
early if only given a chance. No
grain is as good as oats for young,
growing animals. a few finely cut
roots may also be protitably added
to the diet of calves at an earlier
age than they generally get them

Keep your farm buildings and
all your premises absolutely clean.
Use all absorbants such as dry
earth and ashes, and all offensive
gasses will disappear, thereby pro-
noting health and prosperity Elk.
Whitewashing is now in order.
Cellars, fences around the yard and
gardens, and buildings, such as
stable, barns and every other out
house, should be whitewashed.-
To one barrel of whitewash add a
gallon of salt. The addition of 4
lbs. of copperas will give the wash
a cream colored tint, quite pleasing
to the eye and beneficial to the
wood, as copperas is offensive to all
kinds of ants, reaches and other in
sects. All privy vaults should be
purified once week with thick
solution of quick lime.
The floors of cellars should be
whitewashed. A good way is to
sweep the floor clean, and after re-
moving the dirt, pour over the floor
thick wash, which should be
spread about with a broom. This
will soon dry and give the cellar a
wholesome atmosphere, that will be
free from mold and dampness.-
