GIVING THE YOUNG MAN A HINT.

Young Spoonogle never knows when to leave when. he calls on ,a young lady; he likes the sound of his own voica so well that he talks on and on,. while the poor girl grows hght-headed with the tax on her strength, and wishes the mantle-piece of Elijah would fall on the tiresome caller.
 There is a young lady on Lafayette ave- nue who made up her mind to give Spoon ogle lesson. So last Sunday night, when he called, she was as cordial as possible up to II o'clock Then, having had a. four volume history of Spoonogles life, with an extended account of his influence in politics and business, she began to getting dizzy and have ringing in her ears, At that moment her young brother rushed in- to the room, and said, hurriedfy "Pa wants the morning papers, sisP' 'Look in the vestibule, Willie," she an- swereed, gently. 1T think I heard the boy leaving them some hours ago." Spoonogle never took the hint, but drawled on about the roller skating rink, and what figure he cut on skates. The next interruption was from the head of the house, who entered briskly rubbing his hands.
 "Good morning morning." he said, cheerily "Ha, Spoonogle, you're out early. Well, 'early bird, etc. It's go- ing to be fine day, from present appear ance. -
 Spoonogle was dazed, but he concluded the old man had been out drinking, and sat back with "come one. come all, this rock shall fly from it's firm base as soon as l yours truly" air that was decided and con- yincing s...... A half an hour passed, and the mother hurried in.
 "Dear me, I'm late" she said, as she entered, II smelled the coffee an hour ago and knew breakfast was waiting, but-oh Good morning, MT. Spoonogle P
 Then the sweet youth took the hint and drawing himself together he got out into the hall and opened the front door just as the hired girl rung bell and the small boy yelled "breakfast" over the balustrade. l I-Detr0t Free Press.

{! THE RECORD OF THE FA1Rs.-The superior ity of Wells, Richardson & Co.'S. Improved Butter Go or over all others made, is again demonstrated by it's record at the Autumnal Fairs. The test of practical use is what tells the story, and the.great value of the premi- ums given by the Agricultural Fairs, lies in the fact, that the judges in these cases are regular farmers, who know what their needs are and what wi lsupply them. Wells, Rich ardson & Co.'S Improved Butter Color, which has taken first premium at all fairs where 0x. hibited, is put up in vegetable oil so pre- pared that it cannot become rancid, a most important property, the lack of which is fatal to so many of the Butter Oolors offered fo, sale.

Flights Of Fancy in Millinery.

The novelties in bonnets as seen I'M
trimmed are positively too funny for
anything, and the leading shapes look
rs if they were designed by crank,
whose idea was to illustrate in bonnet
his conception of the principal charac
tiers iii Mother Goose melodies and
other popular fictions for young folks;
and what may appear still more absurd
is the fact that these shapes are to be
covered and trimmed to carry out the
Illusion, the melody mania having ex-
tended to manufactures of fabrics and
trimmings, as we'll as to those W no
form shapes.
The ''cow-jumped- over the moon"
bonnet is perhaps one of the most
striking illustrations of this popular
rage.
Is it pretty? Yes, beautiful!
Imagine a bonnet-shape having rather
high crown with brim consisting of two
crescents, one on either side, the half
moon points coming together in center
of back and front. The frame is COW
cred with Kursheedt's all-over en-
broidered velvet in sky-blue ground,
with silver stars over the surface. On
the top, slightly on the right side,
silver crescent is secured, while a
smoke-colored COW in antique silver is
mounted on pin and is seemingly in
the act of jumping over the silver half
moon before it. A cloud-like trimming
of silver gauze is intermixed with loops
of velvet ribbon, and the face is filled
with ruching of silver and white gauze
lace. through which silver star-shaped
ornaments on flexible stems dance and
twinkle like real stars through pass
ing, snowy cloud.
The flight of fancy caused by seeing
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS." bon
net is arrested and the Imagination de-
scends to the earth, earthly, at sight of
the Mother Hubbard bonnet, adorned
with the metal dog of missing-bone re-
nown in the various attitudes of expec-
tation. The Punch-and-Judy bonnets
are others of these queer-shaped crea-
tons One has a hunch-back crowE
and scoop brim, and another shows a

brim, and still more singular shape

SulDhurOuS Gas.

Repeated experiments have proved
that fowls can be cured of Group speed.
lily by the fumes of sulphur. A safe
method of administering this is to take
four strips of board about two feet in
length and six inches in width; nail
these together so as to form the sides OF
of box; nail boards across the bottom,
and this forms box that will hold
earth. Place three inches of soil in this
box and set it in the poultry-house OF
stable where the poultry or other sick
animals are. Take strong iron kettle
one that is wide and shallow is best
adapted to the purpose-and put in two
or three shovelfuls of coal from the
stove. Set the kettle in the box of soil
and sprinkle on couple of spoonfuls
of sulphur. The fumes will soon pene-
trate every part of an ordinary-sized
room and cause the croupy fowls to
cough and sneeze, bringing up mucous
and phlegm through the nostrils and
mouth. Repeat this treatment three
times daily for three DAYS. If the room
is small one spoonful of sulphur will do
at a time. When cattle in barns are in
tested with lice, fumigate twice day
for three days and the lice will disap-
pear. For a large stable a greater
quantity of sulphur is required. A
physician who has tested the merits of
Sulphurous gas, says: ''For children
with Group or whooping-cough, catarrh
or any lection of the bronchial tubes,
Inflammation of the lungs. etc., give fu-
migation with sulphur before any physic
is taken into the stomach. In cases of

Making Screws.

The process of making screws is a
very interesting one. The rough, large
wire in big coils is, BY drawing through
= hole of less diameter than itself,
made the needed size. Then it goes
into a machine that at one motion cuts
it proper length and puts head on
it. Then it is put into sawdust and
s'rattled," and thus frightened. Then
the head is shaved down smoothly to
the proper size and the nick put in at
the same time: After '-rattling" again
in the sawdust, the thread is cat by
another machine, and after another
'.rattling" and thorough drying. the
screws are assorted by hand (the
fingers of those who do this move al
most like lightning). crossed by weight
and packed for shipment. That which
renders it possible for machines to do
all this is little Continuance that looks
and opens like a goose's bill, which
picks up single screw at time, car
ries it where needed, holds it until
grasped by something else, and returns
for another. This is one of the most
wonderful pieces of automatic machin-
ery ever seen. and it does its distinctive
work at the rate of thirty-one screws q
minute. although this rate is only ex-
perimental as yet Ninety-three gross
a,day.. however, has been the regular
work of one machine. Il siLGdeiph

Wild Beasts Of the Soudan.

The demand for animals for exhibit
ton in Europe and in civilized America
has armed enterprisir !, hunters with
IA ct and trap, and sent them far into
thu wilds of unexplored Africa. The
Sou>ian. a part of that continent to
which attention and even anxiety are
now objected, has long been a hunting
ground for the providers of the great
dealers like Mr.. Jamroch, whose reposi-
tory at East-end London has been so
frequently described. The difficulty of
catching some of the animals is very
great A hippopotamus, for instance,
''ish" to land safe and well, to send
over hundreds of miles of Soudan
tracks, to ship sound and in good con-
dition. and to land at European port
after sea voyage. The cost of such
an undertaking is very great and not
uufrequently is incurred in vain. Del
icate animals torn from the steaming
swamps and ready thickets in which
they delight are very apt, after all the
pains and risk of capturing them, to
die upon their enslavers' hands.
Perhaps the king of beasts is as
hardy as any of his subjects. At least
he suffers less in captivity than the
majority of them. if we may accept as
proof the frequent leonine families
which bring rejoicing to the Geological
Gardens of London and Dublin. So
keen is the pursuit of genuine wild
beasts in the Soudan and the regions
adjoining that within very few years
travellers have noted a remarkable fall
ing off in big game. Between the
sportsmen who 60 fully equipped for
slaughter from this and other countries,
the natives, now better armed than
formerly, and the snarers who seek
live specimens for Mr.. Jamroch and his
brethren, the monarchs of the desert
and forest are having a hard time of it
just now, and have little to thank
steam for in bringing the white man
into the heart of their Businesses.
