Daisy Green. By Mrs Susie A. Bisbee, Boston D. Lothrop & Go. Price 8 .8O
 All fond mothers treasure up in their memories the quaint sayings and mis- chievous pranks of tn cir little ones, but few of them ever get time to embalm them in book. Mrs Bisbee has been fortunate enough, however, to have the opportunity and inclination and in the stories which make up the Daisy Green collection she has made use of real ma terial. Many mothers will smile in turning over its pages to find things that they might have written out of their ex- periences and memories, so much are children alike. Some of the stories are

county, Ohio. It required nearly 40 days to make the journey with teams. At the age of 14 Tryphena commenced teaching and became quite noted teacher, not only in Apdover but in Hartford, Kinsman and Vernon. While teaching in Hartford she had n class of several Indians who were being educat- ed as teachers. They were full grown savages who could speak but few words of our language. She often returned to her home, a distance of 20 miles, on horseback and returned on Monday morning. So she spent her time until 1920 when she was married to Horace Smith native of Salisbury, Conn. During the last 30 years of her life she had frequent and distressing attacks of illness, but was wonderfully cheerful at all times and ill all circumstances of life. Her husband and children have always found her a wise counselor and faithful friend. Her kindness to and watchful- ness for the good of others and her ex- ample of frugality and industry con- spired to make her home not only hap py but attractive. When the death an gel came cheerful calm pervaded all.
 Like her life its close WAS sceful
 AS an infants lreath
 Soft and softer, then the stiffness
 That to us is death
 So it came to pass, as it does in time to all families, that the absent members coming home,
 Missed the mothers welcome greeting,
 And her words of cheer:
 And at every family meeting
 We shall miss her here.
 q She had been member of the Con- gregational church for more than 40 years, and fully trusting in the Saviour and believing that his promises were for her and her family, she walked softly down the valley and has entered into rest, leaving the example of life wor- thy of imitation. Tho sermon by Rev MT Reid was appropriate and beautiful, and when he repeated his text, "Let me go for the day breaketh," our sad hearts responded
 Let her go from all life sorrows,
 To the brightness of Gods lcvC;
 Let her gn.aud we will follow
 To the mansions mp above.
 And we see almost in vision,
 Bliss eXtatlc and supreme,
 And we felt, 'tls well with mother
 That she's crossed llfes troubled
 stream. M. Nov. ID, 1888.

History of Cattle Diseases.

A volume on "Animal Plaques, recent
" published in England, contains much
interesting information in regard to the
history and causes of those diseases, which
affect domestic animals. 1t is especially
important in its treatment of the subject
of cattle plaques, which are by no means OF
recent origin. Special attention is given
to the pleuro pneumonia, which has been
the dreaded foe of cattle-breeders and deal
ers in our own time This is traced back
for at least two hundred years, and is at
tributed in large measure to the disturbance
of the seasons and the effect of unexpected
changes of weather. Mr.. Fleming says:
"In Hesse, from 1893, Valentine de-
scribes a pneumonia affection among cattle
which killed great numbers. He says, the
preceding winter being wet, but towards
the. close very cold, at the beginning OF
snring an unusual heat set in, and contin-
] aed throughout the whole summer, which
sndden change produced an unequal and
unnatural motion of the humors and breath,
followed by death to man and beast Oxen
and COWS succumbed in numbers. Among
ether causes, corrosive dew, which spotted
linen with marks more or less dark colored
and corroded everything, was supposed TO
produce i'll effects. From the observations
Of the butchers, it was proved that these
animals died from pulmonary phthlsis, 70
uh;ch no doubt the severe cold after the
intense heat much contributed.
