who are tunneling. Now and then a

Peasant Life in Bengal.

The daily life of the family is series
of pictures of Arcadian simplicity. AT
daybreak, when the crows begin to
cav, the whole household is astir. The
two elder brothers are off to the fields,
while Gayaram is seeing after the cows.
The women are busy in the huts and
courtyard. Sometimes the men come
home to their midday meal and some
times it is carried to them in the fields.
At sunset the labors of the day are
brought to a close. A mat is spread in
the courtyard and the men sit down
cross-legged and smoke their hubble
bubbles; and at such times it is the Joy
of Badan's life to listen to the childish
prattle of his little daughter Malati
Occasionally the brothers pay visits to
their neighbors, or neighbors drop in
and join in the smoking. The CONVEX
sation is nearly always the same-the
weather, the bullOcks, the crops and
the COWS; the blowing, harvesting, SOW
ing or irrigating. But money is ever
the burden of the talk; RUPEES, annas
and pice; the zemindar's rent; the in
terest paid to the money-lender; the
cost, loss or profit of every transaction
connected with the farm or household.
The whole family is religious; indeed
all Hindus is religious. They may be
everything that's good or bad, but they
are never wanting in fear of the gods.
They are constantly uttering the sacred
names and they offer a portion of ev-
cry meal to the gods of the earth,
rUotar onJ civ Tbau coo dait1- IN ovr
erything that exists and omens of good
or evil in everything that moves. If
they meet COW or a wedding they
rejoice over theirgoO fortune; if they
see widow or a funeral they are
down-hearted at their ill-luck. They
engage in no business, or journey, or
transaction of any sort or kind with
out prayer to the goddess Lakshimi
or an invocation to the elephant-headed
Ganesha. Every family or group of
families has it own Purchita, or dOmes-
tic Brahman, who performs endless GER
emonies of Precipitation, conservation,
or publication at births, deaths, mar
riages, fasts, festivals, religious cele-
brations and family incidents of every
kind. In return, the Purchita receives
all the offerings of rice, fruits and vege-
tables that are made to the gods, with
occasional presents of a like character.
Every year the Guru, or religious teach
er of the sect or district, makes his ap-
pearance to receive a shilling fee from
every household, and to confirm young
er neophytes by whispering into their
respective ears the name of the god that
each one is to worship as his own indi-
vidual deity. This name is known as
the "seed prayer" and is to be uttered
by the worshiper 108 times every day
until the end of his earthly career

This was his revenge. As they had dealt by

Destroying Weeds.

In the cultivation of all hoed crops,
the labor of eradicating weeds is neces-
sarily great. Consequently the best
methods Of performing the work should
be employed. There should be a sys-
TEN about the work, if we would have
the weeds effectually removed. To re-
move weed improperly is perhaps to
plant it again, or divide it into many
pieces which will grow again.
Gardeners well know that in order to
be successful in the eradication of weeds
the work must be begun early and that
all such operations should be performed
as much as possible when the soil and
weather are dry. Weeds can be much
more effectually handled in dry weather
than in wet. In wet weather they will
take root much more freely and when
showers are frequent It's almost useless
in some cases to ply the hoe as the
weeds will root almost as soon as cut off.
When heavy rains fall on weeds that
have been cut off and cause them to
take root the harrow or rake should be
employed to disturb the roots as they
begin to grow.
Some weeds can be eradicated much
more easily than others. Sorrel, crab
grass and such weeds should never be
cut or divided any more than can be
helped. Always aim to strike at the
main or central root of such weeds; or,
better still, pull them out entire and
expose them as much as possible to the
sun and wind. Poor workmen often
cover up weeds in hoeingas fast as they
are taken out. This practice is not so
hurtful when the weather is dry, as the
heat of the soil will aid in killing the
weeds; but tits always best to have them
fully exposed when taken out. Tall or
upright growing weeds, if large, can
often be best pulled by hand; but if
taken when small there is no difficulty
in destroying them with the hoe and
cultivator Weeds of this sort are
red-root, lambs-quarters and many
other large growing kinds of sim
liar habit of growth. Weeds of a creep
ing or jointed growth, like sorrel or crab
grass, are the most difficult to manage
and should have early attention. Pur-
slain is weed which should always be
taken when young, as the plants grow
very fast and will soon form complete
mating over the ground. The seeds,
too, are produced in greatnumbers and
this plant can stand very dry weather,
from the fact that it has large and
juicy stalk. A fine-toothed harrow run
between the rows of any crop viii
sometimes do much to check and de-
stroy the growth of weeds just starting.
T. l., 4
young or feeble-rooted plants, the
hand should be pressed against the
plants to hold them firm while the
weeds are Withdrawn. Weeds in such
cases can always be best removed when
the ground is wet.-Cor. Examiner and
Chronicle.

About Walking---PedeStrian Peculiari-
ties Of individuals.

No two of us walk alike. The hinges
of our gates turn the same way, but
with different results.
The baby strikes a toddle because it
hasn't strength enough to walk, but it
has the underlying principle of a nat
ural walk, because it g toes in" - Toe
ing OUT is military artifiee, invented
for the express purpose of showing how
much more man knew than the Lord
did
The hippity-hopity-sk is
peculiarly the little girls gait. Uneasy
aud restless the dutter-budget seems
determined to wear the sole of shoe
and the soul of her mother out at the
same time; but she is the prettiest pict-
ure Of animation humanity can show.
The dead-run-all-out-o breath is the
small boys ait. You can set down
the boy who so far forgets himself as to
walk as already in his dotage.
The bound-to-have-it gait is rapid,
straightforward stride, never turning
to the right or left. The man who has
it knocks over children, banks his shins
against market baskets, and stubs his
toe against everything on the walk.
But he gets there" and his coat tail
arrives about two minutes later.
There is the slow measured gait,
tread, tread, tread, all day long. The
man who carries the bod has this pecu-
liarity down fine. He would run to a
fire in the same step and get there
possibly.
The long lope, thirty-four inches to
the step, with swag of the knee joint,
a vigorous swing of the arms, is that of
the young man from Ruraldom. He
gets the walk from going over rough
ground and anybody that gets the best
of him has got rough ground to 90 over.
The quick, sharp and spiteful gait,
with the little metallic heels ringing on
the pavement, is the gait of a smart
young miss, with bright eyes and lots of
vivacity. The young man who intends
to keep company with her for life must
make up his mind to train to her step.
She never will train to his.
The everyday business gait. Going
right along with your feet, and your
thoughts in the office, store, shop. or
whatever it is. You never know how far
the walk or how long it takes you to
cover it. 1t is an indefinite and fire.
quently the only aid to good digestion.
The take-it-easy, dOn't-care-a-cent
sort of a gait, with cane twirling over
his finger, is typical of the man of the
world. He leads life of leisure and
wouldn't hurry himself As u conse-
quence he grows fat, rheumatic and
equity and in later years walks with two
canes and tremulous limbs. 1t doesn't
pay to bunch your pleasure.
The slow gait. For further particu-
lars send boy on an errand.-Ne10
