Sod HOuseS.

On tho prairies, far from the woods,
where log cabins are impracticable, the
sod house is made as O. substitute. To
Dulld one, man goes on to the prairie
with his team and breaking plow, and
turns straight smooth sod some three or
four inches thick This sod is very tough.
When sufficient has been turned over
the sod is cut into squares and laid up in
n wall MS though it were fiat stones. Door
frames and window frames arc set in rs
tho wall rises. When the height of one
! story is reached small timber is set up
at each end, and ridge-pole placed upon
them, and the sod wall built up or into
the gable. On this ridge there rest smaller
poles for raftors, and on these sod is laid
in courses, the courses overlapping each
other like shingles, $50 many inches to
the weather" The only money outlay
rs caused by windows and doors. If we'll
built, the house will stand for years.
Inside one may "sweeten to taste" In
tho ruder huts the walls are left rncov-
| cred. In others some are covered with
cheap cloth, some with building paper
and wall paper pasted over it, while some
arc plastered and made as comfortable as
any room need to be. Once inside, you
would not know but you were in O stone
or brick house. Then you will some
times find elegant furniture, the remains
of better days, sometimes piano and
the skill to play it; choice books, which
indicate literary tastes; the latest pa
pers and magazines which show that the
inmates keep up with the times. Indeed,
it is surprising to know how many families
OF refinement and cultured taste, being
unfortunate, make fresh start in life on
the vast prairies.

A Female CrusOe.

If De Foe had only known of a female
CrusOe living ON am ocean island, he
might, perhaps, have wrought out q story
superior to his Robinson Crusoe. Alex
ander Selkirk's brief life on Juan Fernan.
dez was trivial, either in the hardships
endured on the difficulties conquered,
compared with that of native woman
on M island opposite Southern Cali
fornia.
The Catholic Fathers at South Barbara
were transporting the natives of the Is
land ST. Nicholas to the mainland
Among them was q mother who discov-
cred that her babe had been left behind.
She begged that the ship might be put
back, but the captain refused. She
leaped into the sea to swim ashore, but
rs storm prevailed, they all thought
she was drowned.
Eighteen years after company landed
on the island. They found traces of life,
and after long search discovered the wo-
man, and took her with them. The poor
mother never found her babe, but had
managed to live in comparative comfort,
though very lonely. After her long life
chiefly in the open air, she could not
bear the confinement of q house, and
soon sickened and died
