Didn't Want Him to Live for Her Alone.

The other night, when one of our
prominent society young men callel to
see his girl, he found her mother sting
quietly before the fire. After bidding
him ''good evening" she looked him
full in the face and said: 'Do you ally
love my daughter Emma" "Well,--
ah-my dear madame" stammered the
youth, turning red in he face, Il have
only been coming 10 see your daughter
two months, and really think you are
q lit le premature in propounding such
a question. "Thaps where we differ,
young man. If the seed of your SOW
ing now will bring forth ma rimonial
harvest I'm willing to put up with you
awhile longer, but if you are coming
here three nights out of the week just
to pass away time you had better cease
coming at once" ''Yes. Well, really,
madame" put in the youth, his voice
ell in culver, ''since you press me SO
closely for an answer must admit that
| am very fond of Emma, and that live
for her alone" YES broke in the
anxious mamma; "that's the trouble
with you young men; you waste toe
much time living for girl alone, when
you ought 10 be living with her. Pm
a plain, old-fashioncd woman and al
ways say what think. Now. Pm will

trial, but ii at the end OF that time
don't see spankin' fine new ring on
Emma's finger your visits to this house
will be cut on" And then to the great
relief OF the young man she lett the
room and sent in her daughter, who. OF
course, was utterly unconscious OF the
''good licks" her mother had been put
ting in for her. Chieajo Tibnhe.

Ducks.

These are easier to raise than chick
ems, are healthier and will make more
of their own living on a farm than
chickens
They lay large number of eggs, and
with the exception OF being bad mothers
are better on the farm than any other
poultry, are more easily kept out of the
garden or places where their presence
in not desirable. Being voracious eaters
they destroy and eat large Numbers of
of bugs that are injurious to growing
plants.
1t is mistaken idea that they must
have pond of water for their special
benefit. Although such place may be
very pleasant for the ducks, it can not
in any sense be deemed necessity.
They generally commence laying in
February, and will lay right along.
When they are laying they should lie
confined as they are not particular
where they drop ther eggs. Ii penned
every night until eight O'Clock in the
morning you will have less trouble 10
secure their eggs. For Matching or setting
prefer hens. A duck rather enjoys rum
ming around too much, especially early
in the morning when the dew is on, for
the health and com tort of young ducks.
They must also be protected from spring
rains, and this the duck mother does
not believe in, as duck enjoys a good
shower next to a pond. When young
they must be watched, for if they by any
accident get upon their backs they are
not able to get upon their feet again
without some assistance. They are
hearty eaters, and should be fed early
and often. Do not neglect them till late
in the morning. they should be fed as
early as possible. After they start to
feather they grow very rapidly, and
mature earlier than chickens. They
can be picked two or three times during
the summer, and on this account are
more profitable to raise than chickens,
and are really less trouble to raise.
They should have plenty of water to
drink, placed so that they can have ac-
cess to it whenever they want it, and
II sheltered from tho hard spring rains
and early dews until they fairly beg n
to feather they will require very little
attention.
For the table they are far nicer than
chickens; in fact. brace of well-fat-
tened ducks::roasted nicely an1 prepared
for the table are as good an article to
satisfy the hungry man as anything 1
