do Birds Bury Their Deat

You are all familiar with the story ..
1.-The Babes in the Wood" and remem-
Der how the robins, finding the babes
lying dead, side by side, covered their
little forms with leaves, wrapping them
in a winding sheet of natures own pro-
viding.
Did you ever ask the question, Do
birds bury their own dead?
Let me tell you an incident that came
from an eyewitness of what l relate.
In tree near an old-fashioned farm
house, way up in Vermont. two robins
built their nest. A lady watched them
day by day as they brought straws. a
bit of cotton, or thread. and weaved
them deity in, to form their summer
home. One morning she found three
blue speckled eggs IN the nest, and on
another, three tiny little birds in their
place. How busy the father and mother
birds were. providing for their wants,
and how prettily and tenderly they
cared for them!
When they were large enough they
gave them lessons in Tying. and herein
comes the point OF my story. While
they were trying their wings one day, a
cat caught one, and before the lady
could rescue it, it was injured beyond
recovery. She put the poor trembling
little creature back in its nest and lett
it there for the mother-bird to nurse
back to life. if possible.
1t was of no use. The cat cruel
claws and sharp teeth had done their
work. and their victim died. A few
days af,er the lady, seeing and hearing
nothing of the other BIRDS. went to the
nest. and found that they had built a
matched roof over the poor little bird.
and there he lay on his back. with his
claws sticking up through the straws.
They had buried their dead, and de-
serted the nest Youths Companion.

believe the statements Of the elder
Pliny, there have never been such rich
people in the world as some OF the no.
bic Romans were. According to this
author, a certain Marcus Crassus used
TO say that no man could be properly
called rich who could not maintain ten
thousand soldiers upon his income
alone. Crassus had landed estate of
many thousands of acres; but Pliny
declares that he had himself known
since the DAYS of Crassus. many eman
cipated slaves richer than he. He men,
tons one man who declared in his last
will that, though he had suffered great
losses through the civil war. he was
still able to bequeath 4, 10 slaves.
$500 pairs of oxen, $1,000 Of other
cattle. besides some millions in ready
money.
Probably the industrious Pliny exag-
gerated good deal. for we observe in
our own day that il man has million
dollars in unmistakable property, he is
usually credited with ten millions at
least. The same Pliny speaks of a GER
tain Ptolemy, who lived near Jadea.
and was not q King, who entertained
5000 horsemen, and on giving feast
to thousand guests. set before each
of them drinking-cup of gold, and
changed the cups at every course
1t certainly behooved people who had
so much property as this. or only a
hundredth part of it, to be very careful
in making their wills; ard. in fact. it
would require volume OF considerable
size to exhibit fully the laws and Gus
toms of the Romans with regard to will
making. Parton, ~. Ns,o York

A Lazy Woman.

A very peculir case came up in Just
ice Schawab's court yesterday after
noon The case was one in which j.
S. Stokes had sworn out a warrant for
the arrest o. Mrs. Fenlason, the wife Of
his partner in 4 business which thew
carry on at 6SS West Sixth street.
The woman, it was said. had threat
ened to shoot Stokes. whom she ac-
cused of tampering with her husband
in such q manner that that individual
refused to give her any money. In
court the facts were brought out on the
testimony OF the woman herself to the
effect that she had done no work for
eigteen years past. and in all that time
sat in chair. having woman TO wait
upon her; and more than that, she did
not intend to work. for the simple
reason that she got married for the ex-
press purpose Of acquiring position in
which she would have nothing to do.
The case was decided against Mrs Fen
lason. and when the Justice told her
that she must give bond to keep the
peace she refused point blank to con-
sent Accordingly she was sent to the
county jail.-Cincinnati Gazette.

Wash for Outside Walls.

The inquiry is frequently made as to
the best kind of cheap paint or wash for
out buildings, having any good degree
of durability. The material usually
recommended is mixture with lime as
its base, which the experience of all par
ties using it proves is short-lived and
poorly rewards the time and other ex-
pense of putting it on.
I have long used for whitening my
walls in nv dwelling, and also for barns
and sheds, the following preparation:
Dry zinc, one pound; white glue, one
ounce; or in the same proportion of in
gradients for any quantity needed.
The zinc must be ground or pulver-
lied, and dissolved in water moderately
hot, stirring it thoroughly during this
process. The glue is to be dissolved in
a vessel by itself in the usual manner
and added to the zinc mixture while yet
ho., stirring the same during the process,
and for some time afterward. The object
desired is thorough admixture of the
ingredients. The preparation when
ready for use should be of the consis-
tency of ordinary whitewash. 1t is best
applied with wide brush. Walls treat
ed with this mixture, which have not
been lined, will preserve pure white
for several years, and will not rub off.
Twelve years since I applied this mix
ture to my barn and sheds, and to-day 1t
is nearly as white as when first put on,
and can not be rubbed off with the hand.
If tinting for border is desired, have
no doubt that a slight admixture OF
lamp-black would give leaden color.
/ have not used it on newly-dressed sur.
face. and do not know whether it would
adhere. A good quality of dry zinc
should be purchased for from six to
seven cents per pound.-Cor. Country
Gentleman.

distrust upon most Of our food products.
Our greed for gain has led us to inju-e
nearly all our prospects for obtaining
wealth by the production and sale Ct
articles of food. A few years ago Amer
lean hams, butter, and cheese had an
excellent reputation in every part of the
world, and the demand for each of them
promised to increase. Now the preju-
dice against them is strong. They sell,
if they are disposed of at all, as inferior
products and at a lower price than similar
articles produced elsewhere. The prac-
tees that produced gains at first caused
heavy losses at last. Quality, rather
than cheapness, attracts foreign Gus
toners.
The present is favorable time to COM
mence the work of reformation. 1t takes
longer to obtain reputation for supe-
rior goods than it does to lose it, but it
is of great value when acquired, and it
pays to retain it. Intelligent persons at
home as well as abroad have found out
that it is cheaper to pay large price
for genuine articles than a small price
for spurious ones. Now that the times
are good and money plenty, there is a
large demand for first-class articles OF
food of every description. People are
willing to pay for the cream that goes
| into cheese, and will give premium for
hams from which most of the moisture
has been extracted. They are ready to
give full value for all they receive. They
are anxious to abandon the use of infe-
rior or worthless articles of food.-Chs.
