An Elephants Good Memory.

An English paper just at hand tells
of an amusing incident that happened
at Hythe. Between three and four
o'clock in the morning one of the ele-
plants belonging to travelling men,
agerie broke out of the tent and dis
appeared. He marched straight down
Market street to little corner shop,
where such things as potatoes. apples,
cakes and candies are sold. He found
that the shop was closed, but. nothing
daunted, he lifted the door from its
hinges, thrust his trunk into the room,
and helped himself to apples. pota-
toes, and even to the candies in
jars on the shelves What
a burglar! The shop-keeper was not
aroused, so silently did the huge crea-
ture 90 about his work of robbery; but
upon the elephants return toward the
tent, the keeper came up to him. In
the morning it got all over town that
there had been a robbery, but later it
was learned that the robber was foul
footed creature-big enough to have
carried off the whole shop, if he had
wished. As for the shop-keeper. he re-
called the fact that twelve years pre-
vious he had given passing elephant a
good meal of apples and potatoes. Pos
sibly it was the same elephant. He
went to the tent, and there recognized
his acquaintance of twelve years be-

FIRE. FIRE. FIRE.

Where Is 1t: Why. 1t is In the Water!
Isn't That Funny:
But you see it isn't real fire. but
only frc-fish. Sweet creature, isn't
he? Suppose you were little. innocent
mermaid, swimming alone for the first
time; how would you feel if you were to
meet this fellow darting toward you
with his great red mouth open? Why,
You would scream with fright, and swim
to your mother as fast as you could, and
catch hold of her tail for protection. At
least. that is what l should do if l were
mermaid. But Mrs. Mermaid would
tell you that the fire-iish will not hurt
you unless you hurt him first, in which
case he will prick you dreadfuliy with
his long. sharp spines.
Nobody knows why this fish has such
enormous. wing-like fms. Wise men
used to think that he could raise himself
out of the water with them,
like the tiying-f fish; but it is
now proved that he can not, and
there seems to be no reason why set
of plain, small fins would not serve him
Just as well for swimming. He prefers
warm water TO cold; SO he lives in the
tropical seas, swimming about the
coasts of India, Africa and Australia.
The natives of Ceylon call him Gini-
maha, and they think he is very good to
eat. They take great care in catching
him, for they are very much afraid of
him. thinking that his sharp spines are
poisoned. and can inflict a deadly
wound But in this they are too hard
upon the fellow. He can prick them
deeply and painfully. and he will if
they NEEDLE with him; but he is per-
fectly respectable fish. and would not
think of such cowardly thing as pos
oning anybody.-Laura E. Richards, IN

HORSE STABLING.

Something About the Proper Care Of
Stock. and Especially Working Horses.
Stable accommodations are very i'm
perfect on many farms. The only rule
by which the length of the stable can
be regulated. is by the number of stalls
required, and these should not be less
than five feet six inches. or SIX feet in
width. 1t is desirable that the length
of stalls for farm horses be at least
eight feet, to afford ample room be-
hind them. and the floor should be ON
a level. or nearly SO, a slope of, say
two inches, or enough to keep the
urine from wetting the bedding. 1t
has been, for some time, a desideratum
among horse breeders (and why not
among farmers, as their horses repre-
sent their wealth to them as well as to
the breeders). to have the walls built
high, it may be higher than any other
out-buildng, with the apex of the roof
open; ii. e.) the peak left open and

inches from the roof, but not high enough

and the odor makes them sneezc, but
they never think of preventing it. Men
carefully protect their carriages from

but never think how much more sem
sitive are the eyes, nostrils and lungs
of the horse, and when the animals
have the pink-eye," disease of all
these organs. and often caused by the
foul smell of the stable, they think they
are badly used by fate.
The farmer should require his help
to clean the stable regularly every
morning, as well as the horses, and see
that it is done. 1t may take up little
time in the morning, but this is moth
ing beside the health of the horses. and

NOVEL SCRAP.BOOK.

An Easy and Pleasant Way of Entertain
ing Young Children.
How to amuse the children is often a
perplexing question. They tire of the
costliest toys, and plead for stories,
when mother and aunties are up to their
ears in work. A maiden aunt, with a
troop of little nephews and nieces, de-
vised a scrap-book that proved an I'M
limited so URGE of amusement and pleas
ure. She procured blank book. and
in it wrote short accounts of the various
adventures the children had met w til
while spending a month in the country
the summer before. These simple
stories were illustrated by appropriate
pictures cut from newspapers and
magazines. The children's own names
were given. and simple language. of
course. was used. One need not be es-
pecially ''literary' in order to compile
such book, and the time spent in its
preparation will be by no means thrown
away. Write large. plain hand. and
before you know it the children will b:
reading the stories themselves. Such
simple things amusc children that
it is just as we'll to begin with a sketch
of Mamie's white kitten, or Johnny's
BIRD. or Wiliie's new sled. Such n book
need not cost but few cents, and may
be made a means of instruction and in
finite pleasure. Christian Union.

Hsw to Prevent Frost ftuaa CetslnR q
the Roots Of Trees and shrubs.
The practice Of annually protecting
trees and plants from the rigor Of VIM

climates. especially; and, furthermore,
it is necessity 50 far as plants set in
fall are concerned. This is plain COM

tected by a mound of earth built up at
least two feet about the base of each.
and packed down solid: this will pre-
vent the frost from getting at the roots
of the trees. 1t is not advisable to
place straw manure or clear straw
around the base of trees and plants,
as mice are sure to find their way into
it, and gnaw the bark of the tree.
Currants. gooseberries and black
berries are best protected by the same
process. though we have found it an
additional! advantage to tie the canes
of each plant close together with soft
bandages or rope; this method pre-
vents the snow from falling into the
middle of The plant and breaking of
the canes.
Raspberries may be thoroughly pro-
tectcd by bending over the canes to the
ground and holding them in position
by shoveiful or more of earth: this
plan is especially desirable with all
varieties that are disposed to be tender.
The same plan is applicable to young
grape-vines; when the canes can not
be bent without danger of breaking. 4

the base as directed for trees.
These plans of winter protection arc

question is whether it is not only more
trouble, but additional expense. to re-
new trees and plants which have been
