CHER NAME"

Then father took the Bible down
And in his clear, old-fashioned hand
Upon its Record pages brown
He wrote the name as 1t should stand.
But protest came from all the rest
At giving such little fairy,
The dearest, sweetest, and the best,
That Anticipated name to carry.
And aunts and second-cousins cry
"a name so worn and ordinary
Could not be found If one should try,
As that same appelation Mary"
And DER and DER again they laud
Her yellow curls, herbaby grace;
"Oh. call her 'Eihelind,' or Maud
Or Christine, for her angel-face."
"But time will change this golden fleece
To match the ewes In dusKy splendor;
Far better name her Beatrice
Or 'lmogen,' serene and tender"
'Ob, name the child for Aunt Louisa,
For she, good soul, is well-to-do,'
The compliment is sure to please her,
And we can call the darling Lou"
Most prudent counsel, all too late
'Twlxt Maachi's and Matthew's pages
Appears, Interchangeable as fate,
The name beloved OF all the ages.
The ancient gem, its purity
Unspoiled shall grace our latest beauty
Sometime on dearer lips to be
The synonym Of love and duty
And gracious womanhood adorn,
However fortunes gifts may vary,
Till on day like Easter Morn
She hears the Master call her "Mary"

A Neglected Industry.

The chief reason why grape-growing
and wine-making have received so lit
tie attention in this country may be
found in the circumstance that the
first settlers were chiefly English.
They were wine-drinkers, but were I'M
acquainted with the production of
grapes and the manufacture of wine.
The French. in several of the eastern
states, and the Spaniards, in Califor-
MIA. planted vines and succeeded in
their cultivation. No territory in the
world possessed so many varieties of
excellent grapes as that embraced
within the boundaries of the United
States. They attracted the attention
of the early explorers, who predicted
that this would become the greatest
Hine-producing country in the world.

Tea-Drlnkiug in Russia.

The Russians, in their anxiety to
diminish the consumption of spirits,
are proposing 20 reduce the duty on
beer, and ara vehemently opposing
the recent proposal of the Russian
minister of finance to raise the import
duty on tea. The MoScow Gazette ridi-
cules the idea that tea should be re-
garded as an article de luxe in Russia,
where even among the poorest classes
tea is the only beverage that both
saves the people from the evil effects
of drinking impure water and greatly
reduces the consumption of alcoholic
drinks. 1t is pointed out that if the
duty is raised smuggling will be car
ried on to much greater extent, and
public health will suffer by adultera.

tea is the chief drink among all classes
in Russia. the MoscolO Gazette pub
fishes statistics furnished by experts
engaged in the tea trade with China,
according to which Russia consumes
80 per cent more tea than England

Talking about Maine," contin.

man, "that reminds me of some
thing that happened down our way
when l lived there when T was a
boy. 1t was in a country town.
A young fellow (very bashful) }
was out riding with his gill one
afternoon, when he saw an old
farmer coming down the road in
his hay rigging. On the seat be-
side him was little cur.
"I'm going to have some fun,
SAL" said the young swain, haul
ing up beside the old farmer. The
farmer drew up, the young fellow
bawled out, nudging Sally
"Say, stranger, I'm powerfully
struck with that there dog of
yourn, and I'd like to buy him."
"'Well,' responded the farmer,
L think an ALFRED heap of that
dorg myself, and I amt particu-
lar about sellin' of him.
"Well, 1 allow I want him pow-
erful bad, and 1 don't mind giyin'
SIS for him.
"The farmer saw he was being
'guyed,' SO he said:-
You pear to be a likely young
cuss and you've got a gol darned
handsome gal in, there with you.
I'll tell you what I'll do; you throw
your arms around that ere gal and
give her a good smack, and I don t
mind givin' yer the dorg.'
THAT was enough for the bash
tul young man; he whipped up
his horse and went on. They rode
along in silence for an hour or
more, Sal in her corner and Bill
in his. Then Sal sort of edged up
to Bills side, turned scarlet and,
looking coyly up into his eyes,
said
''Say, Bill, it pears to me you
didn't want that dog powerful bad,
did you?"

ice, and one Of their grandchil-
dren is going to school down here

Salt Lake Tribune.

Salt Lake Tribune.
Salt Lake has one of the most
intelligent dogs in creation, as the
following story shows. The own
er of the dog is also the proprie-
tor of a COW. Every morning the
dog is started off to drive the COW
to pasture down near the Jordan.
4 lunch for the dog is tied up in
paper and fastened to his collar.
He will drive the COW to where
there is good pasture, and on hot
days will then lie down in the
shadow she casts, moving along as
the COW moves, and thus keeping
constantly in the shade. He does
not touch his lunch until noon,
when he slips the collar from his
head, tears off the paper and de-
YOURS his repast. lie will then,
with his paws, push the collar
back over his head, and toward
evening starts the COW for home,
This story is YOU ushed for by sew,

some of the people of the vicinity
are in the habit of watching him
every day.
