A Modern Novel.

The Lady Alice sits in her boudoir,
enrobed in bright brocade Of a jar
dinire pattern. She was waiting for the
appearance of her lover, Augustus Fitz-
noodle. The bell rings. Lady Alice
starts from her chair, presses her hands
to her heart, and murmurs in the sweet
est and most musical of voices, '"Tis
he. He comes; he comes" She would
have said a good deal more if her false
teeth hadn't dropped downward and
compelled her to close her plush-like
lips, thus drowning the beautiful music
of melodious voice.
A servant enters. He makes bow,
and says: "a gentleman awaits your
pleasure"
Lady Alice, having stuck her teeth
to her upper jaw with her brother Jim's
last end of chewing gum, murmers in
words which sound like the music of
the streamlet when it flows oyer and
down its rocky course, the music Of the
numerous cascades and miniature
waterfalls lending to 1t an unspeakable
charm: "Let him enter"
The door flies open and tall, manly
form appears. 1t rushes forward. Lady
Alice shudders and gasps:
"Tis not Augustus"
The form bows low and the lips
speak:
"Fair lady, the fame of your beauty
resounds throughout the land, and ]
have travelled many miles and from dis
tant countries to gaze upon your face
and to inform your ladyship that am
agent for the best corn extractor, PIN
pie eradicator and freckle eXterminator
ever offered to the public, and at the
low price of ten cents a box, three for a
quarter, or sixteen for a dollar, and a
beautiful chrome thrown in"
1t Is needless to continue this tale.
Augustus appears and saves the Lady
Alice, and in her delight the beautiful
and good Lady Alice is willing to give
herself to Augustus, but Augustus sal
castically replies that so good deed as
he has done does not not need to bt
punished in this manner, and the cur,
tain falls.

FARMERS COLUMN.
Look to Your Live-stoch in Januarv.

LOOK to Your Livestock in January.
January is critical month with all
kinds of live stock. They should be
kept comfortable and Caring. If they
begin TO fall off in condition, they will
be almost sure to lose rapidly, and will
require more food and better care to
keep them up, than If well housed, and
continuously well fed. Be systematic
and regular, then they will not stand
and worry for food or water, and will
take time to feed, to ruminate, and to
rest, Look after sheds and stables, to
keep them clean and warm. Water
ought not to freeze in COW or horse
stables, on the coolest nights, and at the
same time the ventilation should be such,
that the air is always sweet. Pigs suffer
greatly with the cold, and should have
dry, wcll-lttered nests, always. Litter
them with straw or swamp hay, enough
SO that they can cover themselves out
of sight in It,. Sheep should have dry
sheds; they bear a great deal of cold,
but should not have wet nor dirty straw
to lie in. Where much straw is to be
thrown into their sheds, provide IA few
movable platforms, like old barn doors,
for them to stand upon. They will be
great comfort to them, and they are
easily turned over when fresh straw is
thrown in, or they get dirty. Fowls
will lay if they have warm houses, are
well fed, and have a chance to exercise.
The free range of the cattle sheds, sheep
sheds, and the barnyards, gives usually
sufficient exercise. If debarred from
these, they must have sheltered runs
and bare ground. Ducks need to be
well fed, but not allowed to get too fat
if they are to begin laying early. Too
much corn is always bad, except for
fattening poultry,as it produces internal
fat, stops laying, and makes the fowls
lazy. No exercise, no eggs.--dm. Agri-
culturist.

Pruning, When and How.

The jobbing gardeners and Others,
who so about trimming (they often call
it "thrumming") grape vines, and fruit
and ornamental trees, look so wise, and
surround the matter with so much
mystery, that many ordinary people fear
to undertake it. As to the time of
pruning-we refer to the removal of
ripened wood-it may be done at any
time between the fall of the leaf, and
when the swelling of the buds indicates
that new leaves are about to be produced.
1t is not advisable to prune in severe
winter weather, as at that time, the
wood may crack and make a bad
wound, Besides, that is time when
il is uncomfortable to do the work.
The outfit for one who would under
take to do his own pruning is;
sharp pruning-knife, pair of pruning
shears; pruning saw, /, e. saw with
a narrow blade, the teeth of which have
a wide set. For branches not over two
inches in diameter at the base, many
prefer a broad, stout chisel to a saw,
This has a socket into which handles of
various sizes can be inserted. The chisel
is placed al the under side of the branch
to be removed, and the end of the handle
is struck upwards with heavy mallet,
| Al large wounds should be covered with
some material to protect them from the
weather. Shellac yarnish is best for
this purpose, but at the present price of
! alcohol, is too expensive. Melted graft
ing wax is the best substitute, and in
the absence of this, any thick paint may
be used. To prune understandingly,
one must know something of the manner
Of growth of trees, etc. The most inn
portant point is this: the growth next
spring viii proceed from the buds that
were formed last season.-Am. Agricul-
uTist.
