Bishop Paddock, Episcopal) Of Wash

sionary diocese at the close Of this
month. He has been occupied during
the winter in raissng money for a second
schools at Tacoma. Mr.. Wright, of Phil
aoeiphia, offered two years ago 20 give
the land and an endowment fund of
$50, 900 for each OF two church schools,
one for girls and the other for
boys, provided the Bishop would fur
nish o building fund Of $25 900 in
each instance. The cornerstone for
one Of the schools was laid last
year, the building fund having been Sc
cured. The Bishop has succeeded in
raising SIS 900 for the second school,
and is confident that the remainder will
be in hand in time to secnre the second
endowment of $4,000. He has also
opened q hospital on the coast, and
placed i third school at Walla Walla on
a self-supporting basis. These four in
stitutions sill give thesreligious body
which he represents greet influence in
the rapidly growing Territory, soon to
become a State. The Bishops daughter,

At a station in Montana the other

The Montreal (Can.) Witness says:
Among other worthy deeds, the late
Joseph Mackay left $4,000 for q Pro-
fessorship in Montreal Presbyterian
College. His surviving bryther, Ed
ward, supplemented this by a gift of
$40, 900 and called the professorship af-
ter his brother. At his death the late
Edward Mackay left so 900 to found a
chair in the college. Now his three
nephews have added $40, 900, and call
the professorship after their uncle.
The Indian girl of Eureka, New"
saws the San Francisco Chronicle, who
had been given all the benefits of civil
~ization, including dresses of the latest
style, and who recently cast them aside
and went to live in a wickiup with a
Piute buck, has repented of her passion
for savage life. Recently, after drink
ing bad whiskey all night, he arose in
the morning and began to beat and kick
her. She escaped to town and has once
more donned the garb of civilization.
Perhaps it would be a good thing to
send her east as a lecturer on the beau

The present wife of the emperor Of
Germany was not his first choice. The
lady whom he wanted to marry was the
Princess Elizabeth Radziwill. The lat
ter returned his love 20 the highest de-
gree, but she was much too noble
minded to accept the sacrifice of his
hand, and, in a last interview with the
prince, she besought him to release her.
She went into a nunnery, and Wilhelm
Welded Augusta, but their married life
was not for many years a very happy
one. Ii is only since the different at
tempts on the emperor's life that their
relations have become warmer, and ON
those occasions the empress always
spent many hours daily near the bed
side of her husband.

D. S., Ionia County, Mich, writes
"For Is years there has not been a sea-
son SO bad for ripening corn as that Of
1888. tits estimated that $50, 900 bush
els of seed-corn will be needed ia the
State of Wisconsin alone, owing to the
failure of the corn to ripen. Similar
conditions prevail in all c~orn-growing
states, and probably not n farmer in
fifty has saved corn that is fit for seed.

How can we best manage onrGpresent
crop of hogs during spring and early
summer, and how can we get the earliest
green feed for them, as corn is scarce
and dear?
ANs.-Hogs which have been winter
ed, will not only live, but thrive on
grass or clover pasture. They can ke
kept along on such pasture without
other food until spring grain Is ripe.
Peas are the best feed FOR hogs, and
these will be ready in about 81 months
after sowing. Barley is next bestof the
spring grains, and will mature sooner
than the peas. Early sweet corn can be
utilized to good advantage to befoAoWed
by later varieties, and fed stalks and
all, and the hogs will eat it with great
relish. There are more fattening prop
critics in sweet corn-stalks than most
people suppose. With the above aux
iliaries hogs may be kept growing
through the summer, and be fattened
without any corn. Young pigs, how
ever, will require something more
than pasture. Wheat middlings, or.
ground oats with the hulls sifted out,
and slightly fermented, wall make the
best kind of food for pigs. The hulis
Of the oats are excellent for the calves
or COWS. If sows are su ckling pigs.
they will require additional food until
the peas or barley are ready for them.
The hogs may be turned into the peas,
and thus harvesting and grinding will
be unnecessary. Wheat might take the
place Of corn, and il ground entire N
small quantities il will be ecxellentfe
for swine.-Rural New Yorker.

What is it best to SOW for an early
pasture for pigs, the coming summer,
on d prairie soil newly broken?
Ans.-It is not advisable to pasture
some grasses at all, or to pasture very
early, the same season the seeds sown;
but the best You can do is to SOW four
pounds Of Orchard Grass, six pounds
White Glover, four pounds Kentucky
Blue Grass and IL pounds Red clover
seed to the acre. To this you might
aaa three pounds OF Northern Red Top.
The White Glover is very early and is
closely followed by Kentucky Blue
Grass and Orchard Grass. Harrow
the ground well and brush in the seeds.
If you can do this Just before d rain all
the better. All the seeds mentioned
may be sown togetherin the early spring.
You might SOW q patch of rye for pas
ture to ease the grass, bnt the success
Of this you Gun best determine for your
seE.Rural New Yorker.

He has no affinity for the simplicity and
n~aturaIness representative of the itera-

Among the numerous plans for the COM

flower lovers all over the broad land, i
hope many have included one, two or
more window boxes. 1t can be said in
their favor that they offer n OF the
easiest methods of gardening, and one
Of the prettiest forms Of outdoor decor
ation; and TO the large class, who,
through i'll health or many cares, are
debarred from the ordinary flower gar
den, they are especially suitable. They
give also rare chances for richness of
tone and harmony of color, and an

The Short Rows,

A Vermont daiEyman says a young
calf should be fed three times a day.
Overlooking at long intervals, and es-
pecially with cold food, kills a good

A writer in Hygiene Pratique states
that boots and shoes may be rendered
waterproof by soaking them for some
hours in thick soap water. The com

poultry. This is made by mailing to-

to use when needed. There is nothing
equal to a good dust bath to keep the
hens free from lice. If they are very
lousy a bushel of wood ashes may be

In windy localities, says J.. j. Thorn

A MASSACHUSETTS ROMANCE.

4 DisOwned Child Proven to be the
Daughter of a Wealthy Lynn Manufac-
turer.
BOSTON, Oct. A story of a wealthy
manufacturer of Lynn is told to-day
which not only astonIshes his friends, but
which is the talk of all the Boston club
rooms this evening. The man referred to,
while poor bookkeeper ten years ago,
married his present wife. While on their
wedding tour daughter was born. The
fact was kept from the knowledge of
friends and relatives, and the infant was
by an agent placed in the care of a thrifty
Irishman. For a year or two the child's
expenses were paid by its parents. After
that no more money was received, and the
woman having charge of the child was
unable to get any trace of its parents or
relatives. The only clue she had was q
handkerchief among the child's clothes
bearing some initials. She brought up the
girl at her own expense, and she is now
ii very prepOssessing young lady. Not
long ago she became afflicted with an
affection of the eye resembling a cataract.
Her guardian took ner to an oculist, who
became much Interested in the case, and
said that the only one he had ever seen
like it was that of Mrs. Blank of
Lynn. The Irish woman instantly noticed
that the initials were the same as
those on the treasured handkerchief. An
investigation was begun, and it was as
certained that the poor bOOkkeeper had
become the Lynn manufacturer, worth al
most million. When the facts were pre-
sented to him privately, he admitted them,
and paid 1000 for his daughters bringing
up and agreed to allow her 81, 800 annually
hereafter The pOuDIa have other chill
dren, who do not know that they have an
elder sister. In the belief that this whole
story could be kept quiet, the disowned
child is still unacknOwledged. The facts
as above outlined are becoming so widely
known in private circles that it is prob
able that the names of all concerned will
soon be published.
