a poultry fancier may succeed in
making a fair profit by keeping large
numbers of fowls in close quarters,
where everything needful has to be
supplied from out side. Such success
is attainable merely by an uncommon
skill-science, eXperience-in the man
agement or through the sale of eggs
for Matching and breeding stock at ex-
cessive figures. The farmer, however,
has not at all to deal with the ques-
tion, how to turn a quantity of grain
and other food into eggs and poultry,
but with the question of how many
fowls he can protitably employ as scav-
engers of the farm. The object with
him is principally to utilize all that ma
terial, which would otherwise be dead
loss, for instance, scattered grain, weed
seeds, table scraps, bugs and worms,
grasshoppers, inferior vegetables and
others. Farmers in general do not
make use of the services of near as
many fowls as they should, to accom-
plish that end.

TOBACCO CONGRESS.

Do congressman smoke during a
session? Why, bless you, yes, have
seen ladies grow sick in the galleries
from the vile odors of tobacco which
rose from the two-for-fve-cent cigars
glowing in the mouths of the so-called
gentlemanly Congressman beneath. l
have seen members smoking in their
seats, and have watched the wreaths
of smoke to catch the eye of the men,
bers behind them. They chew, too.
These God-like Congressman do chew!
They spit? and every desk has a spit
toon of pink and gold china beside it
to catch the filth from the statesman's
mouth. 1t costs at least $400 a year to
care for the spittings of the House, and
your average Congressman will disre-
gard the spittoon and spit upon the
floor. They are aneat set! The House
at this moment is Uttered with scraps
of paper like q garret. In front of the
Speakers desk are scraps OF letters,
torn newspapers and other letters, and
under the desks of most of the mem
bers are heaps of the same nature.
There is a spitton beside the chair of
the Speaker, for Mr. Carlisle is an in
veterate chewer of tobacco, and his
heavy jaws caress the cud as joyfully
as they do free-trade statistics Wash

CHAPTER XII.
"WEEL MAY THE KEEL ROW."

WEEL MAY THE KEEL ROW.
Captain Duncan rubbed his eyes and
would have grown pale had his ruddy cheeks
been capable of such sign of emotion,
when Annie and Dick Baxter explained to
him and proved to him how Bob Ross had
been betrayed.
Preserve u.s." he gasped, "and me blam-
ing him wranglY a. this time . but what
for did he ma speak out himself would
hae believed him.
"Oh, father, you would not be patient
even with me, far less with him; and he
was too much stupefied to be able to under
stand things himself until he got home"
'Gang for him, Dick-fetch him here this
minute" cried the captain in passionate
haste.
'That'll ma be ill to dae" said Dick, with
one of his wise grins, "for he's Just out by"
Ross halted in the doorway pale still, but
firm on his feet again. The captain opened
his mouth as if to speak, but for little,
was unable to do so. Then he took out his
big red and white handkerchief, wiped his
face with it, and next began to tug at it and
tie knots on it as if it were rope. He
found his tongue at last, and with much
rough awllWardness-
81 did you wrang, Ross. E. beg your
pardon, and there's my hand and there's
Annie and the Mermaid"
The hands of the two men clasped in
grip that meant eternal friendship.
Then the old captain without another
word passing between them, hurried out of
the room. He sat down on the anchor in
the middle of the green. There he had his
pipe and dram and a crack with old Dick
Baxter, learning all the details of Cargills
treachery and how it was found out. At the
end Dick was richer man that day than he
had ever been at one time in all his life.
AS for Annie and Bob Ross, they were
alone in the room. She was in his arms, and
he could only say in a whisper
GOD bless you-my own lass"

There We're few folk in the town who did
not miss Bell Cargill. When it became
known that she was gone there was as much
of that silent sorrow about the place as if
news had come of the loss of whole fleet
of smacks
to another, and that was Bells epitaph but
the generous hand and the sharp tongue are
still missed in the place.
Outside Anchor Cottage the truth about
the narrow escape of the Mermaid is only
known to Campbell, the sailor who retain
ed his faith in Ross in spite of appearances,
and Dick Baxter. The incident is frequent
ly spoken about amongst the men; but Ross
himself when questioned only laughs and
says "Oh, had dram, that's ALL"
Cargill gave instructions to the lawyers to
sell everything in the place, and has never
been seen there since his mother went away.
The Mermaid still plods Oh its diligent
course; but Ross in now the captain and
owner, although Duncan Murray is always
with him. And at times when there is a
calm sea, in the soft northern cleaning,
Annle's low voice is heard grooming the old
song, "Weel may the keel row."

The following particulars as to the
methods of securing divorces in differ
ent countries are interesting:
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-Wh man desires q
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 NAV do the
same II she be ill-treated she complains
to the magistrate, who, attended by the
principal people, accompanies her to the
house and pronouuces formal divorce.
Chinese-Diyorces are allowed in oil
cases of criminality. mutual dislikes,
jealousy, incompatibility of temper. or
too much loquacity 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-
ton. A son is bound to divorce his wife
If she displeases his parents.
Javans-If the wife be dissatisfied she
can obtain divorce by paying certain
sum.
Thibetans-Divorces are seldom al
lowed unless with the consent of both
parties neither of whom can afterwarJ
re-marry.
Moors-If the wife does not become
the mother of boy, she may be di-
vorced with the consent of the tribe, and
she can marry again.
Abyssinians form of marriage is
necessary. The connection may be dis
solved and renewed as often as the par
ties think proper.
Siberians-If the man be dissatisfied
with the most trifling acts of his wife,
he tears her cap or veil from her head,
and this constitutes q divorce.
Coreans-The husband can divorce his
wife. and leave her the charge of main.
tanning the children; if she proves uD-
faithful he can put her to death.
Druse and Turkoman--Among these
people, If wife asks her husbands per
mission to 90 out, and If he says ego. y
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 pair of chop
sticks or a 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 burntas sign
of divorce. Usually new connections are
formed without the old ones being dis
solved. A man never divorces his wife
