A Horses Joke on an Engineer.
TAlbany Journal


Rather a regular series Of Interruptions oc-
CURED on the train due here on Saturday
morning from the west. When leaving
Syracuse, a car laden with horses Ell route
from the west to Saratoga was connected
with the train. The train had scarcely got
under way when the bell cord was jerked,
and the engineer warned to stop The brakes
were shut down, and inquiry made along the
train as TO what was the matter The train
men all denied pulling the cord, and after an
examination as to the cause, without result,
the train again got under way, Scarcely
500 yards had been gone over, however, be-
fore the bell cord was again pulled, and the
train brought to a stop. Another inquiry
and examination along ihe line failed to re-
veal the cause, and another start was made,
when, for a third time, the mysterious signal
was sounded This time another thorough
investigation was made, which was equally
fruitIess. Once more was the train started
hid. and again was the warning signal sent to
the engine This time, when stop was
made. it was determined to ascertain
whether any other than human agency was
responsible for the signal, and the train was
carefully gone over When the car contain
ing the horses was reached, jerking OF the
bell rope was noticeable, and on further ex-
animation it was found that one of the ami
mails In the car, finding that the bell rops
was in reach, had amused himself by seizing
it with his teeth and jerking it to and fro.
The mystery of the signals thus being salts
fsctorily explained, the bell-rope was hitched
ND out of the animals reach and the train
continued on its way.

ASHES.

lSusan Coolidgel
saw the gardener bring and strew
Gray ashes where blush roses grew.
The fair still roses bent them low.
Their pink cheeks dimpled all with dew.
And seemed to view with pitying air
Ihe dim gray atoms lying there.
An! bonny rose all fragrancies,
And life and hope and quick desires,
What can you need or gain from these
Poor ghosts Of long-forgotten firesl
The rose tree leans, the rose tree sighs.
And watts this answer subtly wise:
"All death, all life are mixed and bent,
Out OF dead lives fresh life is sent:
Sorrow TO these is growth for me,
And who shall question Gods decree!"
All, dreary life, whose gladsome spark
No longer leaps in song and fire,
But lies in ashes gray and stark,
Defeated hopes and dead desire,
Useless and dull and all berefU--
Take courage this one thing is left,
Some happier life may use thee 80,
Some flower bloom fairer ON its tree,
Some sweet or tender thing may grow
To stronger life because of thee.
Content TO play an humble part,
Give OF the ashes of thy heart,
And haply God, whose dear decrees
Taketh from those to give to these,
Who draws the snow drop from the SHOWS,
May from those ashes find a rose

TINE EFFECTS OF SUNSHINE
On the Size, Earliness and Ripening
OF Fruits aud Other Vegetables.
TCanada Times

The observations in regard to the different
amounts Of sunshine in different years, car
ried on by the bureau of industries at various
places throughout the province, possess
value other than the Qualifications Of curiosity
in regard to the comparative sunniness OF
the various districts. 1t is only of recent
years that the bearing of sunshine on the size,
earliness and ripening of fruits, aud other
vegetables, has been brought before the at
tention Of scientific agriculturlsts. The full
significance of sunshine in vegetable growth
is yet far from being understood, but suf=
ficient is known regarding it to justify the
conclusion that direct light received from the
sun has most important bearing ON the
quality and quantity of crops
"Cultiv ated plants" wrote Count de Gas
parin many years ago, "will not ripen
their seed without the direct light
of the sun, and the longer they
they are deprived of it the smaller the guam
tity which they will mature" Average tenn
perature is not the all-important considera-
ton In France in 1875, the grape crop and
the quality of the wine were inferior to those
of either Of the succeeding years, which were
much cooler during the season Of vegetation,
and study Of the whole meteorological phe-
nomena of the three years failed to furnish
any reason for the difference in quality ex-
cept that in 1875, notwithstanding the greater
heat, the number of hours of sunshine was
much less than IN either of the foregoing
seasons.
Last year in Ontario the shortncss Of the
crops was ascribed to GOODNESS and excessive
rainfall, and May and September frosts, but
there are no other years on record when all
these unfavorable phenomena were quite
as marked without very greatly diminish
ing the, yield. The bureau reports show
that in addition to the other unfavorable in
fiuences at work, the number Of hours of sun
shine was nearly one-fifteenth less than in the
previous year Had the sunshine been equal
to the average, it is quite possible that many
plants which we're immature when caught by
the September frost would have teen ripe.
Recent investigations in France show that it
is not merely The Leat rays that are neces-
sary to plants, but also the neutral light rays,
which have a chemical action, the effects Of
which are not yet understood. What is
known regarding the effects Of sunshine on
vegetation goes a long way in explaining the
superior quality and yield of cereals and veg
etables i'm the northwest over the yield in
climates which have no more favorable
weather conditions In other respects. Sunny
as Is the climate OF eastern Canada, it is
much surpassed in this respect by Manitobs
and the northwts, AMI the fact should
not be overlooked i'm tmating the agricul
tural capabilities Of the prairie provinces.

A New Barometer


Science in these days Is not too proud
to investigate the simplest phenomena
Of the most familiar and trivial things.
One OF its latest discoveries is that emp
OF coffee is II useful barometer. A French
savan, who has given the matter much
attention, says II In sweetening your
coffee You allow the sugar to dissolve
without stirring the liquid, the globules
of air contained in the sugar will rise to
the surface OF the liquid. II these glob-
ules form ~ frothy mass remaining in
the center OF tho cup 1t is an indication
OF duration OF fine weather, il, on the
contrary, the froth forms ring round
tho sides OF the cup, 1t is II sign of heavy
rain. Variable weather is implied by
the froth remaining stationary but not
exactly in the center These remarks,
snys the Sacramento Bee, ARE no doubt
applied only to coffee without milk. The
addition OF that substance. as 1t is COM
monty supplied by the milkmen, would
probably disturb the barometer" by
supplying indications of rain.
