The largest Apple Trees.

The largest apple tree supposed to be
standing in the United States may be
seen in the dooryard of Delos Hotch-
kiss, Cheshire, Conn. Its shape is sym
metrical. the trunk being round and
without a scar or blemish upon it. There
are eight large branches, live of which
bear one year and the other three the
next year. Mr.. Hotchkiss has gathered
in one year from the five branches eigh-
ty-tive bushels of fruit, but his nredeces-
sor harvested a crop of 10 bushels from
the same five branches. The circumfer-
ence one foot from the ground and
above all enlargement of the roots is
thirteen feet and eight inches. The girth
of the largest single limb is six feet
eight inches. The top limbs reach a
height of sixty feet, and the spread of
the limbs is 100 feet. The age Of the
tree can be traced by family tradition to
140 years at least. Eagjaad farmer.

Farms on the Baltic.

A more beautiful farming country does
not exist than that along the southern
shore of the Baltic. No fences mark the
boundaries of the fertile farms which
stretch away over the rolling hills to the
distant horizon, all aglow with yellow
grain. At intervals a clump of trees
often seen intensely dark against the
ripe grain shows where a farmhouse
stands, and giant wiudmils swing their
sails on the highest hill-tops The high
way, finely built chaussee, leads straight
across the country, only curving to pass
through some village. Mountain ash,
birch and cherry trees border the road in
an unbroken rank. In the bitches and
by the roadside grow countless varieties
of wild flowers-a perfect paradise for
the botanist. From the highest hill the
eve meets to the South succession Of
grain fields. To the North, beyond the
soft undulations of the cultivated hills,
the Baltic shimmers in the strong sun
light, narrow line, sharp at the hori
zon. The dimensions of the brick barns
prove the accustomed magnitude of the
harvest; the luxury of the farmers
houses tells of inherited success. .--Har.

WHY Pa ForgaEe Her.

Once, when Carols mamma was very
i'll, the little one hushed her sweet voice
lest she should "'sturb mamma"
A weary time it was for the wee gir-
lie! She missed mamma; and tired of
watchful Mary, she liked to slip away
into papa's study, and play quietly be-
side him while he wrote his sermon.
His presence made the study pleasant
place.
Mr. May often made calls in the after
noon; and one day noticing the shadow
on the little girls face, he said Il shall
be home by four, Carol.
Carol watched and waited, aud still
papa did not come. A thought occurred
to her. With a great effort she climbed
up to the study clock, and, opening the
door, tried to move the hands along,
when, alas snap went one of the hands.
"Where is my little girl2" asked Mr..
Nav, as he entered the house an hour
later. But no little girl appeared. When
he entered the study she pointed mutely
to the clock.
"But Why did my darling touch the
clock2" asked her papa.
And Carol sobbed out: al wanted to
make it time for papa TO come home. 4"
And papa could not find II in his heart
TO chide her. 81. Nicholas,

upon em and scattered 'em right and
left along the rails. Looking back after
the train had passed the spot, we saw
one solitary peccary left alive out of the
drove. told the native at the end of
the run, about the persistent pluck of
the peccaries and about killing them all
but one.
Il don't s'pose we'll see him again,
said l.
ooh, he'll be tharp said the native.
'Ye kin bet bucket o. liquor he'll be
tharl Pec'ries don't know setch thing
as backin' out of a fight. He'll be
thar
"And he was there. We could see
him for a mile ahead of us, when we
went back next day, standing plump in
the middle of the track, or, rather, squat
ting on his launches, waiting for us. It
seemed pity to run him down. He rose
to his feet as we drew near him and
rushed forward to meet u.s. The engine
stEuck him and hurled him fifty feet out
into the woods. We had finished the
drove.
81 found out o good many things
about the peccary before left Texas.
There was time when nothing would
kill peccary but the poisoned arrows
of the Central American Indians, but
that was before the days of Winchester
rifles. A bullet from a Winchester is
just searching enough to find a peccary's
vitals, but the range don't want to be
too long. When man goes out hunt
ing peccaries he doesn't trip lightly
through the forest, and, stealing upon
the unsuspecting game, bring it down
with his unerring rifle. No, not when
he hunts peccaries. If he did, nineteen
seconds after he fired his first shot
he would be proportioned out among the
drove in two-ounce lots, buttons, boots,
and baggage counted in. The daring
peccary hunter shins up tall tree, near
where the charming creature will more
than likely soon come to feed on acorns
or mast. The peccary has but one vir-
tue-he can't climb a tree. Perched
safely on limb, the brave huntsman
waits for the peccary's coming, and
when the drove comes trotting and
grunting along beneath him, he sends a
bullet through peccary's heart. The
wounded peccary lies down at once. He
knows just what's the matter. He turns
his glittering bead of an eye up to the
hunter, and dies without uttering
sound. One peccary killed out of
drove, the hunter must have ammunition
enough to kill all the rest. or provisions
enough to last him year, for the sur
vivors at once take positions around the
foot of the tree, and there they sit on
their halnches, now and then gnawing
furiously at the trunk of the tree, wait
ing for the hunter to come down. If hate
in the fullest sense of the word, can be
expressed by looks and actions, then the
peccary can look and act it toward hu-
man beings. The hunter shoots one
after another of the waiting drove, and
each one as it is wounded, lies down
without murmur and dies, never re.
moving its eyes from its slayer. The
living pay no attention to the dead or
dying, but sit there on their launches
hoping for revenge until the last one
dies. .-Neoo York Sun.

"Alasi how easily things go wrong !"
A sigh too much or a tear too long,
And fathers patience is quite worn out;
There's hurried step and a wrathful shout
And the dream of youthful pair is DER.
A youth escapes through the open door,
With terror imprinted upon his face,
And goes down the street at flying pace
With hat in hand and a dog in chase.
The dog to the flying youth draws nigh
There's savage growl and piercing cry,
"Alas how easily things go wrong !"
Why did the lover stay SO long
A painting youth at his mothers door
Is vowing he'll 60 out to court no more;
A dog is returning with visage grim,
Dragging an listers tails with him.
Alas how easily things go wrong"
When lover foolishly tarries too long;
"And yet how easily things go right"
When he leaves at a decent time of night
He's wise who this in his memory logs:
Fathers are fathers, and dogs are dogs.
