A Wicked BOy,

They say that the chief astronomer
at the Washington observatory was
dreaifully sold short time since. A
wicked boy, whose Sunday school
experience seems to only have made
him more depraved, caught a fire fly
and stuck it, with the aid of some
mucilage, in the centre of the largest
lens of the telescope.
That night when the astronomer
went to work he perceived blaze Of
light apparently in the heavens, and
what amazed him the more, was that
it would. give a couple Of spurts and
then die out, only to burst forth again
in a second or two. He ex-
amined it carefully for a few min
utes and then began to do sums to
find where in the heavens that extra
ordinary star was placed. He thought
he found the locality and next morn
ing he telegraphed all over the uni
verse that he had discovered a new
and remarkable star of the third
magnitude in Orion. In day or two
all the astronomers of Europe and
America were studying Orion; they
gaZed at 1t for hours until they were
mad, and then they began to telegraph
to the lnan in Washington to know
what he meant. The discoverer took
another look and found that the new
star had moved eighteen billion miles
in twenty-four hours, and upon exam
lining it closely he was alarmed to per-
ceive that it had legs! When he went
on the dome next morning to polish
up the glass he found the lightning
bug. And they say he went into it
with a whole-souled sincerity and
vigorous energy. The hill for tele-
dispatches amounted to
So GEO, and now the astronomer wants
to find that boy. He wishes to con-
suit with him about something.-[ Ex-

PnnlErY Notes.

Sitting hens need nothing but corn
and water; change of food while
incubating is liable to derang the
bowels, causing foul nest, and some
times even loss of eggs.
Over feeding means poor laying of
small eggs, and sterility of the fowls.
The Asiatics are lazy and lay on fat
easily; to keep them in good health
and enjoy the return of the highest
class eggs and very good flesh, don't
feed the fowls too much.
Is there any choice of fowls among
the leading sorts? Out of any five
articles written upon the" best sort"
each one will differ. The best are
among the Asiatics,i plymouth Rocks
and Leghorn fowls; choose your
fancy; study their wants and char
acter; stick to the breed chosen and
you will have the best.
Give the poultry the run of the orc
hard they will hunt up bugs, butter
flies and,worms and keep d N weeds;
this is Just what your tree. want. and
your poultry require. Nj. Hawkins,
of Lancaster, Massachusetts, says the
carculis does not bother his plum
trees, and many other plum ochards
where large numbers of fowls are kept
are benefclally affected.

Texas-Pacific Figures.

He had a dozen rat-traps slung
over his shoulders as he promenaded
up New Street in search of CUSTOM

piled:
"Down-way down. Rat-traps
have followed Wabash, and you can
have your pick for fifty cents"
"But that's too high"
swell being as Western Union has
shrunk, you can take one at forty
FIVE"
"Too high"
"What! Well, must follow New
York Central. Well say forty"
"Come down."
"Ssy Mister, do you want a rat-trap
at Texas-Pacific figures?" asked
the old man.
"What are theyI"
"Why, you take a trap for moth
ing and I'll give you quarter to
buy cheese with"

Baking Powder Tramns.

The danger to the public health
from the indiscriminate use of the
many lime and alum baking powders
of commerce has been so fully exposed
that everybody desires to avoid them.
AS "forewarned is forearmed," house.
keepers will thank us for apprising
them of the special efforts at present
being made to dispose of such powders
in this vicinity.
The proprieJorS of some of the worst
OF these powders are now going from
house to house, trying by means of a
trick, or so-called test, with heat and
water, to show that their articles is as
good as the Royal Baking Powder,
making the comparison with this
brand because everybody recognizes
it to be absolutely pure and whole
some, the object, of course, being to
supply their own goods in place OF the
Royal, which housekeepers have for
SO many years relied upon to puff up
the morning biscuit, and to make the
light, palatable, and wholesome roll
cake and pastry for which it is ia
nous.
The housekeeper will do well to be
on her guard against these baking
powder tramps. Every intelligent
person knows that any goods peddled
from house to house in this manner,
or that are given away In samples, or
sought to be introduced by secretly
traducing the character of other
goods well.known to be pure and re-
liable, have no merits of their own,
and have failed to find purchasers
through legitimate means.
We are informed, as a matter of |
fact, that one of these tramps is try
ing to introduce a powder that has |
been found by the Government chem
list to be 11.S5 per cent.lime, while the
other pedles a powder that is 20 per
cent. alum-one powerful caustic,
the other corrosive poison.
No such trick or jugglery will be
apt to deceive any intelligent person.
The housekeeper who has used her
Royal Baking Powder ever since she
discarded cream of tartar and soda,
Knows more about its qualities than
Ill the tramp5 in the country can
each her. The crucial test to which
'he has put the Royal Baking Powder
the test of actual and successful
work IN the preparation of pure and
food, under which 1t has
never failed-is entirely satisfactory to
Ter. She has always had good luck"
with it in making light, sweet and de-
icious bread, biscuit and cake, and has
placed it, to stay, at the head of her
housekeeping favorites. She knows
hat it has been officially approved by |
,he Government chemists as the best,
and we imagine that baking powder
5ramps who attempt to supplant its
place in her confidence will find this a |
bad year for his business.

"Jay Gould presented w. G. Whit
ney with a chequs for one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars" said
prominent Third street operator the
other day, when it became known that
Mr.. Whitney was TO be Secretary of
the Navy in President Cleveland's
Cabinet. cat that time Whitney was
quite young man, and not rich one
either, though his father was reason
ably well off. He had just graduated
from the Harvard Law School. In
looking over the charter of a certain
railroad company he had discovered
flaw in it which made it absolutely
of non-effect, ana he carried that in
formation to Jay Gould, giving it to
him voluntarily without any request
for compensation. Gould Immediately
drew the cheque for the amount ]
have named, and Whitney was q rich
man at a bound. Gould, believe
sold the stock of the railroad company
very heavily, and made several times
that sum by the operation, for the
publication of the fact of the faulty
charter broke the price down tC
almost nothing and enabled him tt
cover his contracts at very low
| figures"
