Not His Darling.

After a downtown young man had
been keeping company with girl at
the north end of Third street for sew
eral months, her father suddenly got
the idea that salary of 81 per week
would not support his daughter in
proper style, and he forbade the young
man to come to the house. Letters
were exchanged and stolen interviews
followed, but nothing of the sort will
occur again.
The other night the old man observed
his daughter acting nervous and queer,
and he scented cologne in the air.
Whispering in the old woman's ear, he
lodged out doors and took position
favorable for one determined on evil.
Pretty soon soft steps were heard. The
old man coughed. The gate opened,
the steps came nearer and voice whis-
pered:
Is that my darling?'
"Not hardlyr' replied the old gen.
tleman, as he rose up and reached out
for coat-cellar, and the next moment
a pair of polished boot heels revolved
in the air, swept off the top of rose
bush, came down and demolished a
hower-pot and then shot out of the gate
at the rate of mile minute, bearing
away young man whose hair had
pushed his hat otf-Detroit Press.

Not a Bit AstOnished.

The fact that the large majority OF
people in this country are prepared for
anything that may happen at any hour
of the day, was strongly exemplified at
the ferrydock yesterday. Three OF
four cold heads" got together and
cooked up plan and then went in a
body to a ragged, woe-begone chap
who stood leaning over spile and de-
veloped it. Greeting him with smiles
they each took him by the hand, and
then the spokesman said:
cit gives us pleasure to be honored
with the errand of seeking you and in
forming you that at our State Conver-
ion, held this forenoon, you were
chosen our nominee for Governor on
the first formal ballot. 1t is our pleas
ure to ask your acceptance of the honor,
and in SO doing you insure us candi-
date for whom we can work with ear
nestness and enthusiasm, and whose
election to the Gubernatorial chair no
sane man can for moment doubt
The man had not changed a muscle
of his face. He had preserved calm
and placid expression to the end, and
when the spokesman stepped back the
stranger turned his quid, spit off the
edge of the wharf, and replied:
"Well, being you want me to run

Farm ncIng,

There is no practical farm question
of more importance to US at present
than, "How shall we fence our farms. :"
Most farmers are out of rail timber,
and we may conclude that the days of
the Virginia fence are numbered. We
need not regret it, for while it has
served good purpose and was the best
fence, all things considered, for the
pioneers, it is hardly suited to this age
of advanced ideas in agriculture. What
shall we substitute for it +? is the ques-
ton. Shall it be hedges, wire or
boards? After twenty years experience
with hedges, am not inclined to advO-
cate that they be planted to mach ex-
tent. A hedge fence requires too much
labor to keep it in shape, and that labor
comes at the busiest time, when crops
are demanding all the attention of the
farmers. A limited amount of hedge
on line fence is admissible, but for
division fences it is entirely unsuited.
Ali division fences on the farm should
be moved every few years, so as to
pillow up the old fence row, and as it
takes about five years to grow hedge, SO
as to make good fence. when it is
grown, it must stand. have had over
twenty-five years experience with
hedges, and have now half mile of
good hedge, nearly thirty years old, on
my farm, but would not take as gift
all ready to turn stock-an0ther half
mile nor, with my present knowledge,
would plant a rod Of it if l had none.
I believe that the use of wire for fenc-
ing is destined to increase largely in
the future, although there are sone
objections to it, but have not had eX-
perience enough with it either to recon-
mend or condemn it. 1t is probable
that boards will, for many years to
come, be the material from which the
bulk OF our fences will be made. Ii
this is the case we need to make the
matter of board fences study. A good
board fence is as economical fence as
can be built, but, if made OF sappy oak
posts, and beech or sycamore boards, it
..siil prove the most expensive and least
satisfactory of any. 1t is an objection
to board fence, when used for dividing
fields, that it can not be moved. de-
vised, eighteen months ago, fence
which combines economy, portability
and protection.-WALDo T. BROWN,
