Curious Show Or Bovine Intelligence.

Frank Wilkeson writes as follows in the Providence Sunday Sur: owned sixty-fve acres of bottom land where the coarse, blue-joint grass grew in cane brake like rankness. My Texas COWS chose this dense cover in which to bring forth their young. One spring 1 knew that there were over twenty calves con- tinually hidden in the grass on this bot tom. Every morning COW after COW would slip out of the herd and disappear in the tall grass. After an absence of an hour or two, they would return to the herd. In the late afternoon they would again disappear, to rejoin the herd just about corralling time. When the calves were three or four days old, their moth CTS would bring them out into the herd, and their places in the grass would bs occupied by younger calves. Once de- sired to see the young calves, and rode into the grass to hunt for them. After an assiduous search I found one calf lying prone on the earth, with its head and neck extended and pressed into the thick mat of old grass that lay on ;he ground The little creature lay perfectly quiet watching my horse. It did not so much as wink its dark eyes when I dismounted and extended my hand toward it. 1 leaned over 1t. It watched me intently, but did not stir. dropped my hand on it's head. Instantly it was on its feet aud calling loudly for protection, calling that the wolf, its mother had told of. had come. I heard twenty mother cows below in answer to the calf's call that they were coming. The dry grass snapped and cracked in ali directions as the maddened cows rushed wildly to their young. Imounted my horse and quickly rode away from that spot. Each COW ran in direct line to the place where its calf was hidden. The entire herd rushed into the cover to do battle for the calf. What an uproar there wasl Cows, steers, bulls, all call ing loudly to one another in angry, ex- cited tones. had fool .sh setter dog with me, and be had to mix himself into the trouble. The first COW that saw him believed to the others that she saw the wolf. They all pursued him, and he, doglike, fled to me for protection, and my own COWS gave me brisk chase ss l galloped over the prairie. The herd were excited and angry for hours. do not believe that a young calf has par ticle of scent, and also believe that the cows know this to be so. At any rate, they are willing to leave their offspring out of the corrals over night in 8 wolf infested country, once they have hidden them and bade them be still.

Household Hints.

To remove tarnish from silver, use a solution of borax or soda.
 To brighten zinc bath-tub, throw in handful of salt, wet with vinegar, and SCOUT with flannel cloth.
 The grease that runs from a goose when roasting should always be kept, as it is particularly good to dress spin ach with.
 To set colors in blue cambric, dip it into solution of saltpetre, using two or three cents worth to a pailful of water. Salt will injure the fabric.
 Never place fresh eggs linear lard, fruit, cheese, fish, or other articles from which any odor arises. The eggs are extremely active in absorbing power, and in a very short time they are con- taminated by the particles of objects in their neighborhood, by which the peculiar and exquisite taste of a new laid egg is destroyed. -"

 "No," answered the funny man, 'I don't remember ever having had the experience"

LONDON, July 15-The Times has received D dispatch from Jagdorabaten via Meshed, July II, which says that the Russians have ad- vanced in force to Zulfkar Pass, and that they are treating Persian territory as though it were Russian. The dispatch also says that the British Frnntier Commission is moving nearer 10 Herat. Endorsements are arriving at Askabad.
 The advance of the Russians has made the Afghans anxious. but they arc determined resolutely to resist any attempt to seize their territory. They aye puzzled as to these war Ike preparations of the Russians under cover of pacifc assurances. It Is believed that Gen eral Alikhanoff, the commander of the Rus sian advance, is determined to forco on . war, Snd that he is deceiying the Czar in regard to his real intention.
 The news received of further RIaUian movements toward Zulfkar Pass has caused . fall in the price of consols.

Nature as a ProhibitionIst

For eight months in a year whisky drinking is too ruinous to be indulged in by the Southerner. It is not possi- ble for a man to drink as much whisky at the South as at the North. If he attempts it he will go under. In point of fact, there was never as much drunkenness in this section as in the northern states. Even in the days when the use of liquor was gen. eral intemperance was the exception. Down this way all the forces of nature are arrayed on the side of temperance. -->AtIGHt1 Consultation

Fnahiora Notes.

Brocatelle is fashionable revival.
 Double skirts, guiltless of drapery, arc the rage in Paris.
 Jackets for walking costumes are made like dress coats.
 Belts for wash dresses arc of morocco, alligator leather and sealskin.
 The carved handles and tops of coach ing parasols are things of fine art.
 Beads of lead and wood are in much favor for trimming waists, fronts of skirts and mantles. @ -"s "rr@
 The latest wrinkle in handkerchiefs is to have the border exactly match the color of the dress.
 The sleeve "cap" that is seen in DOT traits that were painted fifty years ago are the present fashion. .. .. .-.-...
 Tailor-made bodices, of cloth or vel vet, are what the women in Paris wear with their lace double skirts.
 Puffs of lace are worn out the throat inside he high collar and at the wrists, and are very soft and becoming.
 Short sleeveless jackets, with deep scallop in the centre of the back, are worn with high or low bodices.
 Vests for cutaway basques are still popular, and odd bits of velvet and bro- cade of quaint design are utilized in this way.
 White mohairs figured with small de- signs in color are among the pretty, in- expensive dress fabrics that male up tastefully with trimmings and combina- tions of velyetcen of the color of the patterns.
 Some new dresses are of colored faille covered with overskirts of embroidered net work. This net work is gathered full at the bolt and falls perfectly straight. In the back are wide loops of colored rilbon of the same hue as the faille.
 Both large and small girls wear pretty nainsook and lawn dresses, with a guimpe, round waist and tucked skirt, with feather stitching in colored cotton or linen be- tween the tucks. A sash of the material Ornamented in tho same way is worr with the dress.
 Young ladies wear pelerines of muslin | or etamine for out of doors in ho weather. These pelerines arc trimmed with some pretty fancy lace, with bowl of ribbon matching the dresses, or black velvet bows, making suitable accompa niment for any dress.
 The fashion of braces or bretelles fol bodices is again revived. It is a very becoming one to the figure whether the latter be stout or tlight. The braces being wide on the shoulder and narrow ing toward the waist, give look O. delicate shaneliness to the form.
