There can hardly be any traits more
admirable in boys and girls than truth
fulness and downright honesty. There
can scarcely be an aim for teachers,
parents, and pupils themselves than the
development of such characteristics.
We believe that something is being done
in this direction by our School, and
much by the parents. The opinion is
cherished that not many schools expert
ence so little dishonesty and falsehood.
AS rule, each teacher can rely upon
the word of the pupils; and we have
reason to think that the statement is al
most without exception in the High
School. Cheating in examinations is
certainly unusual, and is repugnant to
the general sentiment of the students.
1t is one of the richest fruitions of teach
ing to enjoy such confidence in ones
pupils; and it is one of the brightest
signs for the future when such high
sense of honor prevails.

A. Rarren Plum Tree

I Plums are attacked by two insect
pests. One is the curculio which makes
crescent mark on the young fruit,
and one is the plum gouger, which lays
an egg in the plum and causes a drop
of gum to exude or the fruit turns to
puffy, brownish decayed ball. The
only effective way to avoid these pests
is to make a poultry yard around the
plum trees and scatter the feed about
them, so that the fowls will scatter the
soil and pick up the insects. 1t is not
the insects that fly that do the damage
but those Matched in the ground from
the fallen fruit, which come up in the
spring and attack the tree. The more
the ground about the trees is disturbed
the better for them.

The Chiefs Overdose.

Seamen have to encounter the perils
of the land as well rs those of the
ocean. When sailing among the islets
of the Southern Pacific whose super
stitiouS inhabitants are as fickle as the
inconstant wind. they wear their lives
on their sleeves. The slightest mis-
take may turn the friends of to-day
into the foes of tomorrow.
Not many years ago, whaler, cruis-
ing in the South Pacific, luffed up to
little island in order to fill the almost
empty water casks. The natives, who
were on the shore in great numbers,
were seen beating their breasts and
uttering mournful cries. Several of
them swan off to the ship and made
the captain understand that some i'm
portant person was sick and in need
of medical treatment. He, being a
kind-hearted man, invited them by
signs to bring the sick person on board.
They needed the invitation and brought
off the king Of the island, who had
not been i'll long enough for the wall
ing and the beating of tom-toms to
produce fatal results.
The captain gave the chief a small
dose of one of those "cure-alls," usual
ly kept in ships medicine chest.
The medicine, the absence OF tom-toms,
and the faith of the sufferer wrought
a speedy improvement. On the follow
ing evening the captain thought it safe
to allow him to return, not, however,
until he had given him "a bottle of the
medicine to be used in case of return
of the sickness.
That night the chief had another
attack. Thinking that if small dose
had partly relieved him, larger one
would effect complete cure, he poured
the contents of the bottle down his
throat.
Alas the calculations even of the
great of this world are not always cor
rect. The next morning the chief was
corpse.
The captain, suspecting, from the
ominous stiffness, that something was
wrong, took the precaution of slowing
firearms into the boat that was to tow
off the water casks. 1t had scarcely
touched the shore when the natives
attacked the crew, who by the greatest
expedition were scarcely able to regain
the ship; which at once set sail and de-
parted.
The captain never revisited the
island He learned that another
whaler, putting in there for water, was
mistaken for his vessel, and several
of its crew severely wounded, before
the natives discovered their error
The natives had carefully kept the
bottle, thinking it an instrument Of
sorcery, because, though heavy, it
could not be made to sink.

All vegetables that are grown ror
their leaves or stems require an abund-
ance of nitrogenous manures, and it is
useless to attempt vegetable gardening
without it. To this class belong cab
bage, lettuce, spinach, etc, The other
class, which is grown principally for
its seeds or pods, as beans, peas, etc,
does not require much manure of this
character; in fact, the plants are in
jured by it. 1t causes too great u
growth of stem and leaf, and the earli-
ness-a great aim in vegetable grow
ing-is injuriously affected. Mineral
manures, as wood ashes, bonedust, etc.
are much better for them. For vege-
tables requiring rich stable manure it
is best that they have it we'll rotted
and decayed. Fothing has yet been
found so well fitted for the purpose as
old hotbed dung, though to the smell
ne trace of "ammonia" remains in it.

Excentricities OF the Nobility.

If the secret history of the European
aristocracy could be written, it would
form a series of stories that would
eclipse the fame of the Arabian Nights
Entertainments. The Tichborne case
is only one of large number in which
the heirs to titles and estates have
voluntarily disappeared, and often
times without suffering their friends
to learn their after fate. A distin-
guished living English peer and states
man cannot dine at friends house
without pocketing the silver, and his
clothes are searched every night by his
valet, in order that spoons, forks and
salt-cellars may be returned to their
owners.
The Earl Of Stamford recently died.
His successor in the earldom has for
years been living at Cape Town, or its
vicinity, and his present wife is a Hot
tentot, by whom he has three children.
The London Truth states that the earl
lives in an iron hut and busies himself
gathering sticks for the fire, although
he insists upon being called by his
title. 1t would be interesting to see a
Hottentot countess introduced into
English society and take her stand
according to her rank at a Court
Drawing Room.
In France probate suit grows out
of the fancy of the Vicomte de Bri-
mont, after his separation from his
wife, fifteen or twenty years ago, to
adopt "a little fair girl" A woman
who was commissioned to find such
child obtained one in England, and
the vicomte when he died two years
ago bequeathed the girl, now sweet
seventeen, 100000. Of course the
relatives of the deceased tried to break
the will, but they did not succeed, and
the young wait gets the money

Biting Horses.

Horses have been successfully cured
of this vice by putting piece of hard
wood an inch and a half square in the
animals mouth, about the same length
as an ordinary snaffle bit. 1t may be
fastened by throng of leather passed
through two holes in the ends of the
wood, and secured to the bride. 1t
must be used in addition to the bit, but
in no way to impede the working of
the bit. Rarey adopted this plan with
the zebra in the Zoo, which was ter
rible brute at biting. Mr.. Rarey sue
ceeded, however, in tanning and train
ing him to harness, and drove him
through the streets of London. Ami
mails with this vice should be treated
kindly in the stable, and not abused
with pitchfork handles, whips, ETC. An
apple, crust of bread, piece of beet.
ETC., and kind pat, but firm, watchful
hand and eye, with the use of the
above wooden bit, will cure the most
inveterate bitter. The fact that he
cannot shut his mouth or grip any
thing soon dawns upon him, and then
he is conquered.-Toronto Globe.
