first by getting out and lighting our

six birds, and pick them nicely, draw

Then we will season each bird, and,
taking six sheets of paper, grease them
well with some of the butter, wrap each
bird in sheet, and twist the ends of
the paper; then going to our brush fire,
scrape away the Goals and ashes down
to the ground. Now we will lay the
birds side by side in the cleared place,
and rake the hot earth lightly over
them, Just sufficient to cover them, and
then scrape the hot ashes and Goals

not regard that bureau of sufficient i'm

desires and what his bill calls for is De-
partment of Industries. 1t would include
the Agricultural Bureau, the Bureau of

When with characteristic cynicism

famous lines on the Countess Of Penn

Could the memory of Shakespeare de-

above with the quaintness and sim
plicity of the lines:
-Blest be the man who spares these stones.
And curst be he who moves my bones"
Inscribed on the tomb of the Bard OF
Avon.
Strict adherence TO mere matter of
fact has scarcely been considered the
special attribute of an epitaph-though
the three following are well-authenti-

And in the same connection may be in
stanced the inscription ON the tomb OF
the inn-keeper, buried in the church
yard opposite his hostelry:
"Here lies Tommy Day.
Removed from over the way"
Latin was long considered the only
appropriate language for an epitaph.
1t is we'll known that DIR. Johnson re-

cats and mice. Not only is he useful
for this, but he is a rare bird, the doc

rare tricks. For instance, he will take
the owl and whirl him around and
about his hands, and will then put him
upon the floor or table upon his back,
side, or any other position he may see
proper, telling the owl 10 sleep, and he
will remain perfectly quiet. The Doc

bill, and showing other signs of alarm.
