GRANDPARENTS.

There is nobody like a comparatively
young and lively %grandsire or grandmother
to fill in the family chinks. Grandfather
roasts bones and compounds savory, hot
messes, we'll peppered for the hens, and
keeps them laying all winter when the
neighbors are stirring a spoonful of snow
into cake in place Of eggs. He keeps the
wood-box we'll filled with the incest of kind
lings and the driest of wood, and never for
gets to wind the clock. He oils the creaking
door hinges and rusty locks, replaces the
tack that has worked out of the carpet, and
soldiers the pinhole that has i%mpudently ap-
peared in the new tin pail. He pares ap-
piles and brings the rihd off in one unbroken
red curl, for the little ones to fling over their
shoulders, to form queer, misshapen capital
letters; nobody can coax corn to pop into
such white flakes as grandpa, and nobody
else can so mend toys, direct the boys about
training the "yellings'o or tunneling through
the deep snow drift at the foot of the hill.
If a cow in the neighborhood is sick or a
sheep refuses to own her lamb, grandfather
is sent for, and he knows a sure remedy.
He has forgotten more than all the neigh
borhood know to-day, and yet remembers
more than all they ever knew.
And what is there that grandmother can
not do? She is always in order to see COM
pany and never at a loss for something to
say. She is ready to take the baby when
nobody else can give him attention; she
binds up bruised fingers with soft rags and
wounded hearts with tender words, kisses
and a stray peppermint from the depths of
her pocket or a mysterious little box which
she takes down from a high shelf in some
cupboard. She keeps the thin places in the
stockings and mittens darned before they
become real holes, and her wise counsel and
soothing words prevent many holes in the
peace of the family and neighborhood.
She has great stores of supplies for every
body far and near. She never forgets where
her sage and summer savory and catnip
are, and her %hoarhound candy and thor
oughWort syrup are so delicious that every
coughing child for miles about considers
himself in luck when he gets a chance to
take them.
Grandmother has weathered the storm
tossed sea of retribution and gotten into the
peaceful harbor of forgiveness. Childhood
is infinitely more tender in her sight than
it is to the father or mother, and what are
deliberate wanderings out of the way in
their eyes arc but involuntary slips of the
untried feet to her. Grandmother knows
that the hasty word or the unrelenting pen
atty of to-day may gnaw forever at the
heart of the speaker and inflictor. All, how
much grandmother knows!
There is never a snowstorm but that
grandfather or grandmother remembers a
worse one away back in the fabulous times
of thirty, forty or sixty years ago. No late
springs or early autumn frosts surprise
them, for they know by long experience
that the promises of seed time and harvest
are sure.-Lewi~ton (lfe.) I.mno1.

Dr.. TALMAGE AND H EvOLUTIoNIsT.
1t was suggested to Mr.. Talmage that he
get up a lecture on "cranks," and relate his
experience with cranky people. Helaughed
and said that while his experience was wide
and varied on the subject of 'cranks," yet
there was one story that always came to his
mind when the conversation turned on
these peculiar people. He was once very
busy writing in his room at a hotel when a
card came up. He gave the bell boy in
~structions that ne could see nobody and dis
missed him. A little while afterward the
card came up a second time and he said to
the bell boy tell that man tocall on the next
day, that he wouldn't see the angel Gabriel
if he called to-day, and the bell boys eyes
stuck out. In a few minutes the card came
up a third time, and then Mr.. Talmage went
down stairs to see who his persistent visitor
was. A man stepped up to him and said:
"You are Mr.. Talmage"
81 am, SIR"
swell, sir, I am an evolutionist, and I
want to discuss that question with you. 1
am also an an%nihilationist. I believe that
when I die that will be the end of me-"
sThank God for that devoutly ejacu-
lated Mr.. Talmage, as he walked off and left
the man perfectly dazed.

WONDERFUL CAVES IN GEORGIA,

We first reached the Blowing az in De-
catur county, Ga, which is situated in a
large plantation on a hill, surrounded by a
broad valley, with the exception of the
east, which is a little higher than the rim
of the cave and ten miles from Pelham,
says a correspondent. The rim Of the cave
is thirty feet east and west and twenty feet
north and south, funnel shaped, about y
feet from surface of rim, and has two open
ings or mouths, though which it breathes.
Its suction is in the forenoon and it blows
out in the afternoon, and the draught is
sufficient in the morning to suck in leaves,
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, or anything of light
weight. In the afternoon it blows out with
equal strength. I placed my head to one
of its mouths and heard a noise like the
roaring of a distant wind. This cave must
have immediate connection with the Gulf
of Mexico, which one would reasonably con-
clude is the cause of its respirations. This
cave is the property of Thomas A. Bar
rows and he says that he often goees to its
mouth of hot evenings in summer and gets
a refreshing breeze, for if the weather
marks ninety-ive degrees, put the Their
mometer to the mouth of the cave and it
will fall to seventy-five degrees, which
shows it has no connection with the dread
ed place, and then the breeze is pure and
healthy.
South of this cave about a mile is a beau
tiful waterfall, the rim of which is about
two hundred and forty feet in circumfer-
ence, funnel shaped, and tits the funnel that
receives a stream of water which approach
es through a narrow channel at a depth OF
twenty feet from the surface of the land
and pours over a rock into a funnel about
forty feet. The bottom of the funnel is
twenty-five feet across, and there have been
seen in it an alligator and rattlesnake. The
water is conveyed from the funnel by a
subterranean passage.
Next I visited the great lime sink about
six miles from Pelham, which belongs to l..
O. Jackson, of cambridge. The sink is the
receptacle of a large creek, and the bottom
is about two hundred feet below the sur
rounding country. There is a grist mill on
it's verge and the natural water power would
run a vast amount of machinery. The fall
of water into the sink is ninety feet, which
presents a grand sight as it falls. One can
easily go down into this sink, which is the
approach to a great cavern one hundred feet
under ground.
On my return to Pelham Mr.. Hand pro-
posed to take me to another cave two miles
from Pelham. This one is on a large plant
alton and is a beautiful funnel shaped cave
about two hundred and twenty-five feet
deep, and has two mouths to breathe
through, and it was blowing ont strong
while we were there. Like the other cave
it sucks the air in the morning and blows it
out in the evening, and the air is cool and
pleasant.-AHanta (Ga.) Nevs.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1886-05-13

of the first two roads examined, it must
necessarily have taken the third road, so
he does not waste time in further investiga-
ton. That this is not mere instinct is
shown by the fact that a dog sometimes
makes q mistake in such a case, and that
when the fact becomes evident he sinks
out of sight of the hunters, looking a pic
ture of shame and humiliation.
Foresight is a quality the possession of
which no one will deny to ants and bees,
and the former certainly have a sense of
compassion. This is displayed in the ten
der care bestowed on the wounded during
the terrible battles fought between differ
ent tribes of ants. The suffering and help
less ones are not left to perish, but are car
ried off the battlefield by a regular "ambu-
lance corps" No one doubts the existence
of memory in animals, and as to ambition,
is it necessary to recount the pitched bat
ties which take place in bee hives between
the different candidates for royalty? How
can one pretend that man only has the gift
of language! He must be blind indeed
who does not see that all animals have some
means of communication with each other.
To give only one example: there is no pos
sible doubt that ants make themselves
understood by their fellows, by means of
the touch of their delicate, sensitive an
tena or ~feelers. Before the war a council
is held, and messengers hurry about.
Scouts or spies are sent out, and the at
tack is fastened or postponed, according to
their reports. All this could not be done
without a very complete method of COM
munication, for the giving and receiving
of orders, etc. Moreover, if animals had
no language, how could they teach their
young? That they do teach them is evil
dent from the fact of young foxes in coun-
tries where the animals are hunted being
infinitely more wary than full grown ones
in other lands How else are we to &C.
count for this than by saying the parent
foxes tell their children of the danger, and
how to avoid it?-Americm AgricuHmia.
