The Bnrbary Apes Of Gibraltar.

Gibraltar is the only spot In Europe
where the species OF true ape. called the
Barbary ape, has been naturalized.
Young ones may frequently be seen In
summer in the MoOrs' part Of the mar
ket place, brought over from Barbary;
and doubtless the ancestors OF the exist
ing colony were similarly imported.
The census frequently taken by the SER
geant In charge Of the signal station,
and in accordance with a garrison order
gives their present number as twenty
FIVE.
These apes were formerly very numer-
Gus on the rock, and there were several
gangs of them. but they were so pre-
dacious in their habits, coming down TO
the gardens in the upper parts Of the
town, and stealing fruit, especially figs,
that they were killed by trap or poison,
so as nearly to bring about their extinc-
ton. In November, 1856, a garrison
oder was published for the guidance
OF the signal master, emanating from
the acknowledgements Office at
Gibraltar, which read as follows:
" Since Gibraltar passed into the hands
of the English 1t has always been
the law, rigidly enforced by some gov
errors more than others, that no wild
animal inhabiting the rock should be
either hunted, molested or destroyed,
and none with more p%ertiuacity THAI
that law which saves, respects, and
holds sacred the domicile of the mon
keys on the rock; and no person or per-
sons, be he or they who they may, have
any title to hunt, modest or destroy them,
and you are instantly to apprehend or
report for the information Of the COVER
nor, any persons attempting to shoot,
share, or interfere with them in any
way"
The order proceeds 10 give instructions
as 10 their being regularly counted
when they came near the station. and
their numbers duly reported SO as to as
certain whether the race was declining,
stationary, or increasing. From that
time the register has been very regularly
kept by the station master. There were
only four or five at this time, and but
three in 1863, when General Sir Will
liam Codrington, who was then COVER
nor, saved them from destruction by a
fresh importation from Africa. The
following note occurs in the journal of
The twenty-sixth OF May: Turned out
four apes wild from Barbary, two males
and two females, all young" After
some time the newcomers made friends
with the apes of the old stock, owing to
the great pr%eponderance Of females,
until the present time, and it may be
expected, as the signal master observes,
now that there are two adult and rival
mates. that it will divide.

Bread Making.

Preserving Rutter Fresh

A discovery is announced which
brings a new element into the calcula-
tion of the future of the trade in butter.
On July 81, of last year, MIR. G. M.
Allender, the managing director of the
Aylesbury Dairy company, put a churn-
ing of butter to the test, treating it in
accordance with a new patent brought
before him. The butter, in a muslin
cloth, was placed in a firkin without a
particle of salt, and every precaution
taken to insure that there could be no
tampering with the experiment. The
tirkin remained on the premises at St.
Petersburg place, Bayswater, for three
months, and when examined on Octo-

was exposed to the atmosphere during
the whole time, seeing that air found free
admittance into the firkin. Without
treatment the butter would have gone
completely putrid; but OF smelling and
tasting 1t on Friday 1t was found per-
fectly sweet. firm and so excellent in
flavor that it was MS If only made the

The Thin Partition Between Life and
Death.

When we walk near the powerful
machinery we know that one single
misstep and those mighty engines would
tear us to pieces with their flying
wheels, or grind us to powder in their
ponderous Jaws. So when We are thun-
dering across the land in n rail Car, and
there is nothing but half nm inch flange
to hold us upon the track. So, when
we are in a ship at sea, and there
is nothing but the thickness of a plank
between us and eternity. W. imagine
then that we see how close we arc to
the edge of the precipice. But we do
not see il. Whether on sea or land the
partition that divides us from eternity
is something thinner than an oak plank
or half IN inch of iron lango. The
machinery Of life and death are within
us. The tissues that hold these beating
powers in their plnco are often not
thicker than n piece OF paper, and, II
that thin partition were ruptured, it
would be just the same to us rs If a can
non ball had struck us. Death Is in
separately bound up with life in the
very structure of our bodies. Struggle
MS we will TO widen this space, no man
call at any time 20 farther from death
than the thickness OF o sheet Of paper.

Cheerful Women.

In marrying, men should seek happy

when they marry for beauty or for style.
The sweetest wives arc those who pos

bubbles up just as unsteady in their

them; no trouble is too serious for
them to make the best OF It," Was
ever the stream of calamity so dark and
deep that the sunlight of a happy face
across its turbid tide would not awake

Keep your tomatoes up from the

mellow, clean and moist.
Stake all all Towering plants, such as
dahlias, diolas, ETC., and keep all
climbers well trained, tying with soft
Irvine, tape or pieces of cloth.
Peaches require a warm, light soil. If

1t is said that if a groove is made in a

Whenever you see n farm upon which
year after year no improvement is made,
you may be sure that the farmer neither

Young cows should not be taught to

A gardener recommends that to keep
bugs off melon and squash vines a
tomato plant be set in each hill, saying
that when he had followed this plan his
young plants were not molested.
A run in q good clover stubble will

Young pigs should be pushed now il
they are for early market. A rapid
growth secured now is of the greatest
Importance. If the stock is not what
is desired begin to improve it at once
by securing a pure-blood boar of some
good breed to use in the herd.
Grinding renders all our cereal grains
