An Animal Apple.Gatherer.

St. Nicholas.
Gathering fruit is a frequent prac-
tico of animals, and yet there is a
stratagcm attributed to that walking
bunch of toothpicks" called the hedge
hog which is curious enough to deserve
special mention. 1t seems that fruit
is frequently found in the hodgehog's s
leeping-apartments, and its presence
there is explained in this remarkable
way: 1t Is known that hedgehogs
often climb walls, and run of upon
low boughs, and instead of scrambling
down in the same manner they boldly
make leap from the top to the ground,
sometimes ten or twelve feet. They
coil into ball in the air, strike upon
their armor of spines, and bound away
unharmed. In taking this jump they
have been seen to strike upon fallen
fruit which, thus impalled upon their
spines, was carried away by them; and
this has given rise to the opinion
that in some such way they may have
stored their winter homes.

Contagion and Inoculation.

An article by pr. R. NJ. Smith in the American Veterinary Reoieoo, review ing the experiments of Pasteur in inoculating sheep to lessen loss by contagion, states that the same plan tried in India on all kinds of animals has met with uniform success in pre- venting the spread of contagious dis ease. In relation to the adoption of this system in the United States in the case of pleuro-pneumonia, Dr. Smith says:
 Contagious pleuro-pneumonia in cattle is a disease with which we in America are unfortunately but too familiar; and yet in 1850 the question as to it's contagiousness was still un- decided. At the suggestion of Dumas a commission was then appointed to investigate the subject, and the result of these experiments was to prove that the disease was communicable, not only by cohabitation in 50 per cent of the exposed cases, and of these 70 per cent proved fatal, but that it was also transmissible without con- tact through the atmosphere. The experiments of this commission fur ther showed that when once affected with thls disease the animals which recovered had acquired immunity to subsequent attacks. Experiments as to the preventive power of inoculation were also made by tho commission,

A Good Creed.

About forty-two years ago, the Rev Henry Ward Beecher was editor of the I1ldtapG Farmer and Gardener, a monthly magazine published in Indi- annapolis. His first work was to esta- blish creed, which was as follows:
 "We believe in small farms and thorough cultivation.
 "We believe that soil loves to eat, as well as its owner, and ought, therefore to be manured.
 "We believe in large crops which leave the land better than they found lt-making both the farmer and the farm rich at once.
 eve believe in going to the bottom of things, and, therefore, in deep ploughing, and enough of it. All the better if with subsoil blow.
 eve believs that every farm should own good farmer.
 "We believe that the best fertilizer of any soil is spirit of industry, en- terprise, and intelligence-without this, lime and gypsum, bones and green manure, mari and guano, will be of little use.
 "We believe in good fences, good barns, good farmhouse, good stock. good orchards, and children enough to gather the fruit"

DfYOrces of the World.

The following particulars as to the methods OF securing divorces in differ, ent countries are intere sting:
 Siamese-The first wife may be di- vorced, not sold, as the others may be. She then may claim the first, third and fifth child, and the alternate children are yielded to the husband.
 Arctic region-When a man desires a divorce he leaves the house in anger and does not return for several days. The wife understands the hint, packs her clothes and leaves.
 Tartar-The husband may put away his partner and seek another when it pIeases him, and the wife may do the same. If she be ill-treated she complains to the magistrate, who, attended by the principal people, accompanies her to the house and prononnces formal divorce.
 Chinese-Divorces are allowed in all cases of criminality, mutual dislikes, jealousy, incompatibility of temper, or too much loquscity on the part of the wife. The husband cannot sell his wife until she leaves him and becomes a slave to him by action of the law for deser- tion. A son is bound to divorce his wife if she displeases his parents.
 Javaus-If the wife be dissatisfied she can obtain a divorce by paying certain sum.
 Thibetans-Divorces are seldom al- lowed unless with the consent of both parties-neither of whom can afterward re-marry.
 Moors-If the wife does not become the mother of boy, she may be d. vorced with the consent of the tribe, and she can marry again.
 Abyssinians-No form of marriage is necessary. The connection may be dis solved and renewed as often as the par ties think proper.
 Siberians-1f the man be dissatisfied with the most trifling acts of his wife, he tears her cap or veil from her head, and this constitutes divorce.
 Coreaus-The husband can divorce his wife. and leave her the charge of main faithful he can put her to death.
 Druse and Turkoman-Among these people, if & wife asks her husbands per. mission to go out, and if he says Ego, without adding "but come back again, !" she is divorced. Though both parties desire it, they cannot live together with out being remarked.
 Cochin ChiDese-If the parties choose to separate, they break a pair of chop sticks or copper coin in the presence of witnesses, by which action the union is dissolved. The husband must restore to the wife the property belonging to her prior to her marriage.
 American Indians-Among some tribes the pieces of sticks given to the wit nesses of the marriage are burnt as sign of divorce. Usually new connections are formed without the old ones being dis solved. A man never divorces bis wife if she has borne him sons. Leeds Mer- curU
