Antiquity of Agriculture.

Notwithstanding the obscurity that
surrounds the beginnings of agricul
ture in different regions, it is settled
says writer in Popular Science Month";
lH that the dates vary exceedingly.
One of the earliest examples of cult
waited plants is drawn from Egypt, in
the shape of a design representing figs
in one of the pyramids of Gizeh. The
date of the constr Iction of the MONT
ment is uncertain; authors vary in
assigning it to from fifteen hundred to
four thousand two hundred years be-
fore the Christian era If we assign
it to two thousand years before Christ,
we would have an antiquity of four
thousand years for the fig. Now, the
pyramids can have been constructed
only by numerous people, organized
and civilized to a certain degree, who
must consequently have had an eStab-
lished agriculture, going back several
centuries, at least, for its origin. In
China, twenty-seven hundred years
before Christ, the Emperor Chenngun
introduced ceremony in which, every
year, five species of useful plants were
sown-viz,, rice, sofa, wheat. and two
kin Is of millet. These plants must
have been cultivated for some length
of time in some places to have attract
ed the attention Of the emperor at this
period.
Agriculture seems, then, to have
been as ancient in China as Egypt
The constant intercourse of the latter
country with Mesopotamia justiieS lis
in presuming that cultivation was nj
most contemporaneous in the regions
of the Euphrates and the Nile. Why
may it not have been quite as ancient
in India and the Indian Archipelago?
The history of the Dravidian and Ma.
laysian people does not 60 back very
far, and is very obscure; but there is
no reason for presuming that cultiva-
tion, particularly on the banks of the
rivers, did not begin among them
very long time ago.

Angry StOrks.

This strange and interesting incl
dent that follows is related by Bishop
Stanley, who says there is no doubt
the truth in every particular. Bishop
Stanley says that French surgeon at
Smyrna, being unable to procure Il
stork, on account of the great venera-
tiol entertained for them by the
Turks, took some eggs secretly from
stork's nest, and replaced them with
hens eggs. After awhile chickens
were hatched, greatly to the surprise
of the storks. The male stork dlsap-
peared suddenly, and was not seen Tor
two Or three days, when he returned
with large number Of other storks.
These birds assembled in a circle
around the nest, and carefully exam
ined the little chicks. The female
stork was then brought into the midst
of the circle, and after some discussion
was attacked by the whole flock and
torn to pieces.

Chilian Ind ans.

The faces of the Indians by whom
we were surrounded impressed me ia
vorably. Some few were fair and
must have had European blood in their
veins. They were broad-chested, fine
y-built men, intelligent looking. with
well-fofmed heads, and l could not but
bestruck by one feature-the extraordi-
nary brilliancy of their eyes, which
cleaned like fire. They were all well
mounted, the horses for the most part
being adorned with silver bits and or
naments, the stirrups also in many
cases being of silver. A piece of tim.
Der about 20 feet high, with a mans
face carved on it, was imbedded in the
ground in the center of the circle of
Indians, and l understood that it was
their custom to swear by this. They
believe in god. creator of the uni.
verse; in inferior gods of good and
evil, war; ETC.; in the immortality of
the soul; in polygamy, and in the pur-
chase system as applied to matrimony.
They possess many good qualities; are
faithful. courageous,a and have extraord,
mary memories. One of their charac.
teristics is inordinate laziness. Inever
saw them out of their huts until II
O'clock in the morning, and then they
would saunter forth and stretch them
selves on the ground, with the chin
supported on the hands. In this posi-.
ten they talked together for hours.
In riding it is their custom only to
place the big toe in the stirrup. They
eat horse1esh, and prefer the flesh OF
mares 10 that of oxen. 1t is sad to
think that the modern civilization
which may benefit their children
now by is accomplishments, fast deS-
troying the parents, who are fearfully
Indicted to strong drink nk'--f'or'ai8htB

Our Early Friends.

How sweet to have our carly friends
Keep gentle, fond and true;
Better to cling to one old friend
Than find dozen new;
Our carly friends if few and far,
Can bless our hearts much moro
Than newer friends, if rue they are
Till lilc's brief hour is o'er.
Our early friends TO us express
The happiness they feel,
And only hide the bitterness
They trcmble TO reveal;
The holy sympathy they leave
Our ANXIOUS thoughts employ;
I'd rather weep with those lore
Than share q Strangers joy.
In tho grand ages yet to be,
Where la tn finds sweet loposo,
Fond friendship in full constancy
Shall blossom as the rose!
Oh, who would live for self alone,
Or for ones own sweet will?
A heart congeninl 10 our own,
All aching voids must fiji!
Our early friends are always best,
They shared our morning days
Their welcomes ever sweetiy fall
We lovo their woods of praise!
For fame is but q scentless flower
Though it be crowned with god;
But friendship, like the sweetest ro5c,
Hides friendship in each fold.

Little Paul went out into the woods
one day bird-nesting. He didn't mean
to rob the nests; he only wanted to
know where they were. He liked to
find a prettily woven one with little
blue eggs in it, and watch till the tiny
birds burst the shell. They were such
odd lUoking things, with their big
mouths always open for worms. 1t
was pleasant to see them from day to
day. till their pin-feathers grew, and
they became stout and strong and be.
gan to sing few notes.
But he did not find one very
quickly.
lie began to feel hungry and want
his dinner. lie could 60 home now
and visit the woods some other morn
ing. Then he looked about him
Which path led to the farm? He sat
down and thought about it. Themore
he thought, the more he was puzzled.
How should he ever get home again?
Should he have to stay all night in the
woods, without any candle but the
stars? without any bed but the messy
cushions? without any covering but
the green branches?
He called aloud, hoping somebody
might be Telling trees there. Only
the echoes answered him, and the lit
tie brook seemed to laugh out at
him.
He remembered that once old Brihdle
had strayed away into the wood-lot.
His father was gone in search of her
for hours. He wished he might hear
the tinkle of her bell now and see her
white horns pushing the bushes
aside.
A little bird flew down and took a
drink from the brook. She knew her
way through the thick woods; but
what was a little boy to do?
He felt as if he should starve if he
didn't find his way soon. lie wished
he had brought one of his mothers
doughnuts along with him. While he
was wondering what to do, he heard
a familiar sound close by. 1t was a
little low song he had often heard at
home. 1t seemed to come from
bunch of flowers growing among the
moses. Were flowers ever known to
sing?
Paul remembered that nobody in
that region kept bees but his father.
The bee knew the way home. When
he had filed his h ney-bags and flew
up out Of the flowers, almost brushing
Paul's cheek, it seemed as if he said,
"lt's time to be going to the hive; fol.
low me- child" And he watched the
bee mount up into the air little way
He then made a bee-line for home, and
Paul followed.
The bee was Just flying into the hive,
all yellow with pollen, when Paul's
mother cried out, "Where have you
been, dear? l was afraid you had run
away to the village to see the circus
come in
81 was lost in the wood-lot," said
Paul; 81 met one of our bees down
there making honey When he got
ready to come home, he showed me the

Apropos of children's department, a
story is recalled of the lately deal
John Brown, the Queen of Engla.d's
faithful henchman. When he first en-
tered the service of Prince Albert the
little princesses, hearing their father
address him as Brown" used the
same form in speaking to him. The
Queen corrected them, and they all
addressed him as "Mr. Brown except
ing the Princess Louise, who, imperi-
Gus even in childhood, persisted in
her right to use the name as her father
did. One morning the Queen heard
her and informed her that if she again
addressed Mr. Brown, without u ham
die to his name, she would be sent to
bed. The next morning, when he pre-
sented himself in the royal apartments,
where the family assembled, the little
miss said aippantly:
Good morning, Brown!
Then, as she saw the eyes of her
quaon-mother fixed upon her, she rose,
and, with a curtcsy, continued:
"And good night, Brown, for l am
going to bed"
And she walked resolutely away to
her punishment. Free Press.

China is about one-third larger than

and has eight times the population OF
this country-say, in round numbers,
over 400,000000. Records there date
back from beyond the time of the No
achian food, and printing was known,
of a Chinese sort, 2000 years ago. The
Chinese wall which encircles the en-
pire on the Tartar side is 1900 miles
long, thirty feet high, and twenty feet
across the top.
The life of a child was saved in a
curious manner at Louisville. 1t got

evident the child would strange be-
fore his arrival, the mother thrust her
finger into its throat, hoping to force
the obstruction into the stomach, when
by great good luck, her finger became
firmly incased in the thimOle and it
was thus drawn out.
1t was not till this century (1Sl9)
that strangers in France were placed
by other than treaty law on an equali-
ty with native FrenchmCn, and allow
ed to receive bequests and own real
estate. In 1882 a still further i'm
provement was made in their condition
by their being delivered from imprlson-
ment for small debts.

A correspondent writing from
Wayne County, New York, to the
Department of Agriculture at Wash
ington gives an account of the pro-
duction of peppermint oil in that re-
gion. There are about 5000 acres of
land annually devoted to the produc-
tion of this useful and essential oil in
Wayne and adjoining counties, which
is considered the finest quality grown
in the United States. The annual
production is 10000 pounds of oil.
1t is planted very early in the Spring,
and the harvest begins in August.
After cutting the mint it is allowed
to wither for eight or ten hours, and
it is then raked and placed in cocks,
where it can be left but short time
before being taken to the still. The
still consists of wooden tubs, and
the wilted mint is packed in the tubs
by treading with the feet; when full
cover is fitted tightly over the top of
the tub, and the mint is then steamed
by means of a pipe which connects
the lower part of the tub with steam
boiler. Peppermint is sometimes
carelessly cultivated, and various
weeds allowed TO grow among it
which if stilled with it will give i'm
pure oil. The strictly pure oil pro-
duced IN Wayne and adjoining coun-
ties is refined at Lyons, N. Y, and
sent out in bottles made for the pur-
pose, duly branded and labelled. The
actual cost of producing and refining
it is from 81 to So a pound.
