FOR OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
THE ROGUISH PUCK.

"Do believe in fairies? Yes, Master Hazel
eyes"
And the roguish face grew scornful and grave
with great surprise.
"Well, 1 don't" said he firmly. "I'n tell you
I've never seen single one, not even Santa
Claus"
Said I to this small skeptic, aged seven:
"Then you know
Much more than Master Shakespeare did, who
lived SO long ago.
"For he believed in fairies-Peas blossom,
Mustard seed,
Oberon and Queen Ttania-and so do 1, in
deed
"In Nab, who sets poor mortals dreaming of
wOndrous luck;
In airy, dainty Ariel, but most of all in PUCK.
"In Puck, the rogue, the rascal the naughty,
tricksy sprite
To torment every living thing is his supreme
delight.
Hes always lurking near US, some naughty
trick to play;
I come across the traces of his mischief every
day
"What, here? You're joking with me-" cried
Master HaZeleyeS.
You just are talking nonsense" And he
looked severe and wise.
''Who else would throw my scissors" asked,
down in the well?
And who would thrust poor pussy's feet each
in a walnut shell?
'Or dance upon the shed-top dressed like a

at night?
"Who ate the floating island from off the
CuStard sea,
When all the aunts and uncles were coming
here to tea?
''Who was it pulled the needles out with a
single jerk,
And left all those dropped stitches in grand
mas knitting work.
By this time Master Hazel-eyes had very
sober grown,
As wished that Puck, the rascal, would let
us all alone;
And said that he was cruel, and-wretched,
heartless sprite-
Delighted to set all things wrong, but never
made them right

To frighten US, and bother us, and vex US
everywhere.
"Please stop!" And Master Hazel-eyes
turned red as red could be.
And then: forgetting grammar, said: sit isn't
Puck; it's me
You're talking of. I know it is Do stop 1
wish you would.
I'm sorry that l acted so-rm going to be
good.
81 didn't mean to be so bad, and trouble
every one;
But forgot, and everything, and then it was
such fun!
"And you pretended it was Puck. But that's
just what l say
There isn't any Puck at all, nor fairies any
way"
So answered Master Hazel-eyes whom could
not convince;
And as for Puck, the rascal, l haven't seen
him since.
But in his stead brownie comes, who, to my
great surprise,
Is always kind and helpful, and he looks like
HaZeleyes.

.COURTING BY FIRELIGHT.
How the Young People Conducted Their
Love Making in Ancient Times.

How the Young People Conducted Their
Love Making in Ancient Times.
Uncle Davy was giving the boys
some advice in their love-making affairs,
and one of them asked him how the
young people did when he was spark
ing. Them was great times, boys"
he said, in reply, great times. We
didn't have no gas, no kerosene, nor no
new-fangled notions, and we done our
fparkin' by a plain tallow dip, but most
frequently just by the freight. Fire
sight is warmin', boys, and flickers just
enough to make girls eyes shine and
the peach blossom glow on her cheeks.
It's mighty soft and purity, too, and
kinder reaches out and melts two hearts
together in a way none of your gas
lights knows anything about. Some
times the fire shined up a little too
powerful in places, and the young
man would get up without sayin'
anything and put a shovelful of
ashes on it, Then he would cuddle up
to the girl in the shadow and she would
cuddle some, too. and it really didn't
seem like there was anything else in the
whole big round earth to be wished for.
Purity soon the fire would get obstreper-
Gus again, and the little flames would
twinkle in and out, as if they wanted to
see what was goin' on, or had seen and
was laughin' and winkin' about it and
havin some fun, too, and the young
fellow would reach for the shovel and
the ashes and cover the bright blazes
all up. And sometimes-rememb
now, only sometimes-the girl would
get up and put ashes on, and then
well, boys, when the blue birds come in
the spring, and the fshin' worms
crawled out of the ground. aud the boys
set on the green banks of the little creek
waitin for bite, and the johnny-jump-
ups nestled in the sunny places, there
was a weddin' in the old house. and the
purity bride wore apple blossoms in her
hair, and the awkward young fellow
blushed in his store clothes and tight
boots; and when the winter came they
sot by their own fire, and the shovel and
the ashes was out of a job. r. Merchant

STABLE MANURE
A Fertilizer That Contains All the E1e-
ments of Plant Nutriment.

A Fertilizer That Contains All the E1e-
ments of Plant Nutriment.
1t is important that the farmer should
understand thoroughly the effect that
fertilizers have upon the soil, and the
advantages Gf any that one kind pos
sesses over another. First, it must be
understood that plants must contain
phosphoric acid, nitrogen, potash, lime,
magnesia, sesquioxide of iron, and sui
phuric acid, and therefore these must
be present in order to secure the healthy
nutrition of the plant. 1t is rather rare
that soil is found that is deficient in
lime, magnesia, sulphuric acid or iron,
but as stable manure is formed from the
growth of plants upon the farm, and
contains all the substances mentioned,
it appears that stable manure contains
all the nutrtments for plants by which
they are nourished, and hence is
perfect fertilizer of itself.
Further than that, stable manure con-
tains that organic substance which, by
its decomposition, creates in the soil
what is known as humus, which assists
largely in loosening the same, keeping
it moist and warm; stable manure is
also chemically active, and tends to
produce favorable outward conditions.
BY the use of coarse, strawy manure
upon compact clayey soil, or compact
loan, if well ploughed in and mixed
with the soil, the result, in breaking up
and loosening the soil, will be very
marked. This formation of humus and
change of texture of soils by the use of
stable manure is of the greatest inn
portance. Now the question arises,
How is it with artificial manures? What
is their effect? Or have they any two
fold effect? Do they furnish supply
of plant food on the one hand. and on
the other do they exert a favorable in
fiuence upon the soil as regards its con-
dition?
To these questions the answer may
he given that, inasmuch as they contain
formulated quantity of phosphoric
acid, nitrogen and potash, they furnish
abundant nutriment if applied in suffi-
Gent quantity. But they do not exert
any direct influence upon the nature of
the soil, as they can not add any to the
humus of the soil; nor can they change
of themselves the mechanical texture OF
the same. By all experiments that
have been made, it is pretty well de-
termined that the greater the supply of
humus in the soil, and the more favor
able its external condition, the greater
the effect produced by the application
of special fertilizers; therefore, even by
the use of green manures, or upon sod
with thorough working of the soil,
rendering the external conditions as
favorable as possible, artificial manures
will prove efficient. Although it is
possible to produce crops upon a poor
soil by the use of special manures. the
results bear no comparison with those
where there is a liberal use of stable
manure used in connection with the
special. The more lasting effects of
stable manures is a good reason why
their use should be made as full as pos
sible PROF. Teomaps, in Boston GIoba.

them for breakfast: Butter a pie plate
and cover the bottom with fine bread

crumbs; sprinkle pepper and salt over
this and put some little Jumps of butter
over it. Bake in quick oven for five

Hens eggs were in great venera-
ton with the ancients. The Romans
exhibited them with great reverence in
their festivals of Ceres. The Greeks
equally honored them. The Japanese
are very fond of eggs. They eat them
at dessert like fruit, and very often with
oranges. The. rich Japanese are very
particular concerning them. They will
not eat those of fowls which have full
liberty and feed on what they pick up.
They must be fed on rice, and they must
lay their eggs in rooms prepared for
that purpose.
