cal.n Mr.. William Matthews tells an
anecdote which illustrates the lack of
penetration in some parents and teach
ers. A boy was brought n day to
General Salem Towne, labeled as an
incorrieible Ounce. No master had
been able to y AXE him learn, and if
Mr.. Towne couldn't he should be APP
prenticed to a trade. Mr.. Towne pro-
ceeded to examine him. The boy
soon made a mistake and instantly
lodged, as If frightened.
"Why do you do that ?" asked the
master.
because I was afraid you were
going to strike me-"
"Why should you think so"
because I have always been struck
whenever I made a mistake"
"You need not fear being struck by
me,n said MI. Towne. "That is not
my way of teaching boys who do as
well a. they can"
Under the wise teachers judicious
encouragement the 10y showed SO
much intelligence that he was sent to
college. In after years he became q
lawyer, an Editor, a judge, q governor,
United States Senator, and Secretary
of War and of State. That boy was
William L. Marcy, of New York.

A Pest of Rabbits.

New Zealand has suffered ~grievously
from these gentlest of furry foes.
About twenty years ago q colonist
brought seven rabbits from the old
country to his new home at Invercar-
gill, in the southern isle. 1t was
thought that to turn these sdrift on
the bleak sandhills along the coast
could not fail to prove q benefit to
the colony. For some years this an
joyed excellent shooting on b elinks(as
swered capitally, and the ~colonists en-
such q seaboard Is called in Scotland).
But ere long the rabbits increased to
such an extent that they cropped
every blade of grass and even devoured
the roots, which alone bound the
light sandhills and prevented them
from blowing over the better soil In
land. Very soon this evil occurred,
and the land was greatly injured.
Then the farmers on the seacoast be-
gan shooting and trapping In earnest;
but by this time some more rabbits
had been imported to Otaqo. and from
these two centres the mischief rapidly
spread. Considering that each rabbit
breeds eight times q year and pro-
duces an average Of six young at each
litter, it is easy to perceive how rapid
must be their increase. On the other
hand. their human foes are few, the
settlers in the interior living eight or
ten miles apart-a lonely life, in
truth, where perhaps half a dozen
men herd the fiocks which ran Q over
Sc, 200 acres. 1t became evident that
these shepherds could ever check the

another bottle of water the sugar
sample, and when it is settled and
clear pour into it a Tablespoonful of
the baryta. If 1t becomes milky and
cloudy it is safe to say the sugar cou-

clear it has none. Keep your baryta

Fishing For Amber.

At Konigsberg, q few days ago, the
right to collect amber on the beach
near SchwaIzort during . space of
twelve years, from the LIST of Decem-
Der next, was sold to the firm of
Becker and Co., which has held the
contract during the. last twenty four
years. The price paid Is l50, 900 marks
a year-say $4,000. The Prussian
coast of the Baltic, between Memel and
Konigsberg, yields more amber than
any other known locality, and 1t is
from this source that the great de-
mand for the material in the east is
supplied. Originally Konigsberg did
q vast business in amber, having some
seventy turner's, but Dantxic is nov
the chief seat of the industry and nota-
bly, OF the manufacture of mouth-pieces
for pipes. In old times the grand
masters of the Teutonic order enjoyed
monopoly in the amber trade then 1t
passed TO the crown, and very stringent
regulations were enacted to prevent its
| infringement. "Strand-ridersp pa
trolled the coast and a range Of gallows
were kept standing IN terrorem, on
which the hapless peasant taken with
a piece of the precious material in his
possession was hanged out of hand.
Even now it is q theft for q person to
retain a piece of amber he has picked
up on the coast, and a trespass to ven
ture there in certain districts. The
amber, washed out of extensions OF
coal-beds beneath the sea, comes to the
shore in the sea-weed cast up after q
storm. The men drag the weed on
shore in nets, and the women and
children pick out the amber. In win
ter, when the sea is frozen over, holes
are broken in the ice and the weed Is
hauled up with pixies and spears.
