Ovation and Triumph.

The word .'ovation," from which
many timid writers appear to have beer
frightened by persistent course Of
ridicule, not always, nor often. justly

whenever it signified minor triumph,
or anything that could, by reasonable
feat of imagination, tie so designated.
1t is true that We do not sacrifice sheep
when we applaud victorious General, 8

but the story of historic words survives
their literal matter-of-fact signiication,
or language would be dry and colorless,
indeed. When this noun .'ovation" is
uttered in any connection with imperial
progress-when a sovereign, at some
rare climax of popular esteem. receives
the homage of the nation in its one I'M

Over and over again, after lis Italian
battles Napoleon Ill. was said in print
to have received .'ovations;" and the
solecism was repeated years after when
the Emperor William entered Berlin in
such triumph as surely precluded the
idea of any minor sacrifice. Had pagan
rites been revived at that time, no simple,
silly sheep, hut Jose's own chosen shape

St. George and the Lisardl

In many old natural histories-espe-
cially those of Aldrovankus and Gesner-
strange pictures are shown of dragons,
with terrible heads, breath like steam,
the feet and legs of q bird, and serpent
like skins In the days of chivalry these
dragons were very common, if we may
believe the tales of the time, and every
knight or gentleman with any pretensions
to valor seems to have followed in the
footsteps of st. George, according to the
romancen. But, in these days, the world
has been 80 well travelled over that the
dragons have been finally sifted down to
one or two beautiful little creatures that
live in India and the islands of the In
dian Archipelago. Save for their harm
less aspect, they have very much the ap-
pearahce of the dragons of the olden
time, and we suspect they were the orig
lieved by the natural-history writer's of
past centuries The dragons are small
lizards that live among the trees, and
though they have no wings, they move
about through the air in graceful curves,
with almost the freedom of birds. When
they are upon branch, you would hard
ly notice anything peculiar about them;
but, let an insect pass by that they are
particularly fond of, and, with a rush, sew
eral of them fly into the air. Between
their legs is a curious membrane, encirc-
ling them like parachute. banded and
crossed with gorgeous tints of red and
yellow, which glisten in the sun like
molten gold. They seem to float in the
air second while snapping at the object
of their pursuit; then they sink grace
fully, alighting upon the trees or
! branches. The seeming wings are men,
branes-really an expansion of the skin
of the flank, held in place by slender,
bony processes connected with the false
ribs, which shut up, as it were, when the
dragon" is resting, the wings appearing
to be folded at the sides. They five up
on insects, and dart after them from tree
to tree with amazing rapidity, their long
tails lashing the air like knives.
According to the naturalist Brontius
the common fying-lizar initiates a curl
Gus yellow goitre, or membrane, when it
flies, thus rendering it lighter, and re-
minding us again of the birds, with their
hollow bones. Thus assisted, they cross
intervals of space as much as seven hun
dred feet in length faster than the eye
can follow them. In darting across
small streams, sometimes they fall short
and come down in the water, when, of
course, they are obliged to swim the re-
mainder of the distance. Sometimes
they ere found in large streams, so it is
not improbable that they go in swimming
for the pleasure of it.-C. +. Holder, ~

Catching Cold.

There is nothing more unreasonable
than cold in the head. 1t should, by
all rules of reason, manifest itself princi-
pally when the weather changes from
warm to cold. but with the perversity of
all things evil it insists upon starting
under conditions exactly opposite to the
rational ones. More people are now
flourishing handkerchiefs and utterirg
startling sneezes than there We're when
the thermometer was below zero, and
they are sure that they don't know why.
Their family physician, if it was to his
interest to tell the truth, would probably
explain that the warmer weather had
increased perspiration, so that draught
or degree of cold hardly perceptible
in severer weather is now likely to arrest
the respiratory process. with the usual
results; but how can explanations COM
fort man with q cold in his head? The
only relief is in resolving not TO catch
cold again so easily. But this resolve
can be kept only BY watching changes Of
weather as If they were a lot of hungry
politicians. y Herald.

cost of wheat as now produced is ut, or
near, the very lowest minimum. and
when it does not bring fifty cents q
bushel to the ryOt it will g con ,umed at
home in lieu of other breadstuffs and the
wheat area will be temporarily dimin-
ished.
The facilities for handling and trans
porting grains are very poor. There are
no elevators, no shipments in bulk, but
all the grain must be put in bags, handled
and carried by manual labor. The cost
of ocean freight depends on the fluctua-
tons of the general steamship carrying
trade. and Iaries SO considerably that
exporters can make no definite calcula-
tons ahead, but are obliged to watch
their opportunities from week to week
and day to day. Nearly all the wheat
exported goes through in steamers via
Suez canal, and the time required for
transit to London is, from Calcutta thir-
ty-five to forty days, from Bombay
twenty-eight to thirty-three days and
from Kurrachee thirty to thirty-five
days. While the wheat is exposed to
the air during inland transit and storage
at the seaport it is liable to serious dam
age by the weevil, an insect terminating
in the grain itself under the influence Of
heat; but when stored under ground it
will keep in good condition for years,
and even in the ships hold it is conn.,
paratively safe during the time required
for transit. Chicago Times.

Most Profitable Crop.

Which is the most profitable crop to
grow? is a question often asked. The
answer depends on circumstances and
soil; climate, capital and labor all must
be considered before deciding. One
thing we wish to impress on farmers is
the mistake they make in discarding GER
tain vegetables because they are trouble
some to grow. We must not forget that
the easier a crop can be produced the
cheaper it sells, and the higher the price
the greater the profit even when labor is
increased. For instance, if a crop be
easily produced on an acre at cost of
$40 which sells for $40 there would be a
clear profit of 80 for the acre. For two
acres the outlay would be $40 and the
profit $50. But if we apply the $40
worth of labor on one acre and derive
$50 of profit, the receipts and expenses of
the easy and more laborious crops would
be the same, but one-half the land will
be saved by the growing of crop that
requires double labor. If bushel of
corn sells for 81, and the farmer labors to
the value of IS cents to produce it, he is
really selling his labor and not the corn,
for the actual substance taken from the
soil by the corn is but fraction of its
value. In our large markets those vege-
tables that require care and nice man.
agement and much labor to produce
them bring high prices, the rates being
high because farmers will not grow them
until they feel sure of not only being
reimbursed for the outlay, but profit
must also be the result. On small farms,
where the owner wants more land because
he is idle part of the time, those crops
should be grown that call for all his Ia
Dor, as the sales in market will return
good wages for the work. Selling labor
on the farm that would otherwise be
wasted is as important as cultivating,
feeding or any other part of the manage
ment.-Fdrmers' l.agozine.

to have fires orsmudge heaps among the

Tragic End OF a Hungarian Family.

A peculiarly sad and shocking do
mestic tragedy is reported from the towr
of Batyu in Hungary. The keeper Of 5
crossing on the East Hungarian Railway
near that town happened to win few
days ago some hundreds of f1orins in o
lottery. The poor fellow, who had never
seen such large sum of money in. his
life, took the bank notes home and
amused himself in turning them over,
forming plan upon plan for their dis
posal. All a once 4 train was signaled
and he rushed to his post, leaving the
precious roll behind him. As ill-luck
would have it his little daughter was
playing in the room at the time. Struck
by the peculiar appearance of the notes,
having rarely if ever seen one before,
and not knowing anything whatever of
their value, she proceeded to use them as
plaything, and presently flung them
into the fire, where they were burned to
ashes. Just then the father returned.
missed the notes and learned what had
become of them. In his fury he struck
the child violent blow which stretched
her lifeless on the floor. The mother,
who was giving bath in an adjoining
room to her second child, an infant,
rushed in on hearing the disturbance,
picked up the little girl and tried to re-
store her to consciousness. Her efforts
we're vain; the child was dead. She flew
10 the bath in which she had left the in
FAINT. Another shock awaited her; the
child was drowned in the bath. The
childless mother, distracted and desper-
ate. rushed out of the house and hanged
herself on the branch of tree. The
wretched father, overwhelmed with mis-
fortune-his fortune gone, his wife and
children gone-seized a revolver and put
an end to his existence. The artistic COM
pleteness of this tragedy gives it GER
tain air of unreality. but the Hungarian
journals vouch for the exact truth OF
these detailS.-!S. James Gazette.

The size of farm should depend upon
The capital you have to invest and upon
gour farm. We use the word capital as
meaning all the means employed in
carrying on any business. One of the
great drawbacks of American farming
IS the lack of sufficient capital, and we
are inclined to believe that in the major
ity of cases too much of a farmers capt.
tai is invested in his land. As rule, a
farmer should have, we think, only
about half of his capital invested in his
land. This may appear untrue. Let us
look at it.
Take an unimproved farm in this
State of 800 acres. worth $50 an acre,
which may be obtained in many counties
in this State. Upon this farm $4,000
may be expended upon farm buildings
with economy, exclusive OF dwelling.
From the experience of the best farmers
of our country it is proven, and by our
best agricultural writers it is asserted,
that it pays to stock farm to its full
capacity. This farm can easily support
100 head of cattle, worth $50 per head.
with the best methods of farming. And
let it be said that he who wishes to make
q fair profit must pursue the best
methods. If it is admitted that there is
the most profit in raising good stock, it
must also be admitted that the farmer
that does not have his cattle come up to
this low estimate is not doing what is
the most profitable. This must be adj
mitted or the general proposition that
raising the best cattle is the most profit
able must be denied. The farm may
support ten horses with profit, partly for
work and partly for breeding purposes,
which should be worth $3.50 each. Fifty
hogs may be kept, worth ten dollars each,
while $500 would be low estimate for
the value of machinery. Five hundred
dollars may be put down as cash on hand
for part payment of labor. etc. To re-
