An Anecdote Of Washington Irving
Retol6.

Many years ago-in fact, back in the
thirties-Dr. Grant, of Enfield, whose
reputation as a physician in Connecticut
is still in memory of the first rank after
years of retirement from practice, was
travelling in South Carolina, his native
State, going by stage from Savannah to
Augusta. At a csrtain stopping placeit
was found that there were more passen-
gers than the stage could carry, and an
extra was orderedfor the accommodation
OF five passengers. These passengers
were John Forsyth, Of Georgia; John
Branch, Postmaster General; George
McDfie of South Carolina; DIR. Grant
and an unknown gentleman. The party
soon became tallative, and by degrees
all knew who each II was, with the e1-
ception of the one silent stranger. As
the stage creaked along, the attention
Of DR.. Grant, who was a lad at that
date, was attracted by a little dog fol-
owing the stage, which reminded him OF
one described by Washington Irving in
Astoria, which he had just been read
ing He was laughing quietly to him
self, when n OF the gentlemen insisted
that he should tell them the cause OF
his amusement, that they might join in
the fun. DR.. Grant said: '"That little
dog reminds me of Washington Irving's
dog, whose skin was 80 tight that il.
drew up his hind legs"
This led to o talk about Irving, in
which all joined except the unknown
man. One Of the gentlemen then APP
pealed to him, and asked if he
did not think Irving one of our
wittiest and most delightful writer's.
The person appealed to re-
piled that he could not say that
he did. The gentlemen all expressed
their astonishment, and one Of them
persisted in demanding why he did not
agree with the others in their admira-
ton of the favorite author.
"Have you eyer read any Of his
works?" they asked.

must be Washington Irving himself, for

pathos of his pen."
The unknown colored to the roots
OF his hair, but made no reply, and his
tormentor continued:

fessed that he was, and then followed o

They are very hardy, freezing doing
them no harm. They are propagated'
from seeds which resemble in size. form
and color the seed of cabbage. The seed
is sowna at the same time as the seed OF
cabbage or cauliflower, and in the same
way. Early plants may be started IN a
hot-bed. In t~ransplanting treat the
plants like young cabbages. While, as
we have said, freezing does them no
harm, they are generally harvested in
the fall before the closing up OF the
ground. If reset in the following spring.
they will furnish an abundance OF tend
er sprouts, which, when cooked, some
think are better in flavor than cabbage
In preparing the ground, selecting the
ground and manuring the ground, pro-
coed precisely as with cabbage. It is
subiest to the sane insect enemies %
cabbage, and they are to be treated in
the same way as when they attack the
latter.

The faint Of MN.
n the Hartford Times

From the Hartford Times
"Have you recently looked at the
milk which my milkman is furnishing,
Mr.. Roberts?" a gentleman asked, the
other day, as he entered the s~ealer's
office.
"Yes, sir; I find his milk to be very
good. Why, what's up?"
swell, there's q strong odor about
the milk he delivers to me, and I don't
like it.
An Investigation by Mr.. Roberts re-
vealed the fact, which was, by the way,
acknowledged by the dealer, that in
the field where his cows were pastured
there are quantities of wild onions,
The COWS like this garlic, and the milk
becomes tainted with O disagreeable
smell.
Mr.. Roberts gives an explanation Of
faint of the milk which is often no.
ticed after being taken from the ice.
'sMost people put the milk on top
of the ice. The cold currant descends
and comes up on the other side, after
being more o less heated. On the
second trip the air, loaded with all the
scents of the different articles, goes d.
rectly into the milk and stays there;
because the impurities will attracted by
moisture. Now, place the milk under
the ice and you will see that odors Of
the different foods will be left on the
ices and the milk will be as pure from
bad smell or taste as when put there.
l have placed q glass Of water on ice in
n side of q refrigerator, and box Of
strawberries IN the other. In three
hours the water was colored from the
impurities of the berries. This is clear
" a good illustration Of my point on
milk. Milk is one Of the greatest alb
sorbing liquids, and it should never be
left in the sick room or wherever there
are unhealthy scents. Yon will notice
a,greesy u on water left in yonr
sleeping W night that comes
from the impurities of everything in
the room being attracted by the mois-
ture. I always place q glass Of water
in my room before retiring
