Cunning.


Even a barn-ysrd fowl learns from expert
ence and by observation. Every country
boy knows that hens will follow q horse or a
COW about the meadow to catch the insects
disturbed by the animals grazing. But Mr..
Kenneday tells. in his Wonders of the Rail.
way" singular story of illustrative OF
hawks sagacity.
The reader has doubtless often admired the
beauty of the smoke rolling in thousand
involved curves of beauty from the funnel
Of Q locomotive. A cunning old hawk, in
France, has also admired for long time this
black cloud of smoke, but not for its ses-
tbetie beauty.
For fifteen years, the iesthered pirate has
accompanied the train from MesgivnY TO
Romilly, hiding in the smoke and steam
pouring forth from the engine. The old ras-
cal knows that the small birds, whish fly up
from the grass and shrubs on the approach
of the train, can not see him in the smoke.
He therefore flies in this hiding-place. going
slowly or fast with the train, that he may
more easily pounce upon his prey.

The girls who have pored over the pages
of the little book called Don't" are now in
vited by an exchange TO accept advice in re-
gard to things they should do.
Do be natural; q poor diamond is better
than good imitation.
Do try to be accurate, not only for your
own sake, but for the sake of your sex; the
incapacity Of the female mind for accuracy
Is standard argument against the equality
Of the sexes
Do be exact In money matters; every debt
you incur means loss to some one, probably
to some one less able than you to bear it.
Do answer your letters soon after they are
received, and do try to reply to them with
relation to their contents; rambling, i'll

cation.
Do observe; the faculty OF observation.

DO attach as much Importance to your
mind as to your body.
Do recollect that your health is OF more
importance than your amusement; you can
live without one, but you'll die early with
out the other.
Do try to be sensible; it Is not particular
sign of superiority to talk like fool.
Do be ready in time for church; if you do
net respect yourself sufficiently to be
punctual, respect the feelings of other pso-
pie.
do get up In time Tor breakfast.
Do avoid causes or irritation in your
family circle; do reflect that home is the
place in " bich to be agreeable.
Do be reticent; the world at large has
no interest in your private affairs.
Do cultivate the habit of listening to
others; il will make you an invaluable

'you want q know why Almira Sophia
and ! havn't been to meetin' I can tell
you it's because we don t care to %
where we've been slandered as we
have by our own church members.
. ''Slandered!' says I, what hev they
been a-sayin'?'
6 i shouldn't think you'd need to
ask, says she; we couldn't 90 on the
street without bein' stared at so, that
we've had our mail sent to Hone

But what hev they saidP I've been
to hum pretty stiddy lately, an I
haven't heard anythin gan that was
gospel truth.
. 1 don know as care to repeat
it,, says she, but if people don't stop
talkin' about US they may get into
trouble
"And she shut her mouth as much as
to say that's all you II find out by me:'
but land alive, I've known Mis- Hatch
ever since she was Hester Miggs, an
her an me sat on the front seat in the
old red deestrict school-house; and she
can't scare me by puckerin her lips an
''But what is it that's been said?'' I

to live as respectable wimmen should.

saw any unbecoming conduct on her
part.
''An' she wiped her eyes an look
ed out the winder where Almira Sophia
was picking some posey seeds in the
garden.
Il liked to have laughed right out
at the idee. for Almira Sophia was an
old maid before she was out of baby
clothes. almost as stiff and prim as she
is now, an don't believe would know
how to act improper if she wanted to.
But struck to the pint, an finally she
told me; an what do You 'spose it Isl?
and Aunt Paruel paused to heighten
the dramatic effort of her narrative.

her listeners as they bent forward with
eager interest. DO tell u.s.
"Well, slowly aud impressively--

Concerning MOustaches.

''Moustaches are different" said the
barber; ''some are plant and silky,
while others are as stiff as bristles. A
man who wishes good moustache
should never allow a razor TO touch it.
Then he will always be proud of it,
providing he has good hair-growing
powers. Young men have a foolish
idea that shaving frequently will
hasten the growth of the moustache,
but it's only effect is to make it like a
brush.
"Bald-headed men have, as rule,
the best growth of hair on their faces.
1t seems to be the way nature has OF
compromising them for what they
want above. Some men can never
grow a decent moustache; it looks
Ike two rat tails. Such men should
fall back on side whiskcrs.'
