The Harrison and Gourlay comedy
organization opened last night at the
Grand in their indescribable medley of
wit aud nonsense called "Skipped by the
Light of the Moon" To say the house
was full only half expresses the truth.
It was packed upstairs and down st 'irs,
in parquet, dress circle and balcony,
from footlights to entrance, in every
nook and corner. All the boxes were
occupied. To say the piece is funny
does not begin to express it. Up
roariously, convulsingly funny only
wrestles with the fact and leaves it
half said As the gags, songs,
ridiculous situations, persifage, puns
and witticisms flew fast and furious,
and through every portion of every
scene peal after peal of laughter shook
the entire audience. There sat behind
the HERALD critic tenderfoot who evil

or The Needles, who laughed long, loud
and unrestrainedly from the time the
play opened until IT closed, excepting
spare moments he improved by inform
ing his fair companion that he did not
enjoy shows. and that this was the
worst pack Of nonsense he ever saw in
his life. That is said to be the way

1t is hard to discriminate by saying one
actor in this excellent company is better

How Stone Wall Should be Built.

Stone is by no means an unmiXed
evil on a farm Being indestructible.
il is an excellent material for fences and
when properly laid up, stone walls are
not disturbed by a frost which will
throw over post and rail, or board
fences. or draws out the posts so as TO
seriously weaken them. To build a
stone wall, some skill will be required.
The foundation should be dug out a
foot deep. and the earth thrown upon
each side. which serves to turn water
from the wall. Large stones are bed
ded in the trench, and long stones
placed cross-wise upon them. As many
whole stones as possible should be used
in this place, and if such stones are
scarce, some pieces of four inch oak
plank may be used occasionally. The
stones are then arranged, breaking
Joints. and distributing the weight
equally, Any small spaces should be
filed with chips broken off in dressing
the larger stones. SO as to make them
fit snugly, As it is work that viii

The Front Yard.

Those whose grounds are limited to
the front yard of a village lot, have
even in this restricted area. room for
the display of taste and skill in its
treatment. The walk from the street
TO the house should be so placed as to
leave as large grass plot, or lawn. as
possible, and bed in the centre of this
should form the main feature of the
decoration. In Europe much care is
often given to single bed of this kind.
The bed is edged with ornamental tiles
made for this purpose. The plants
used in the bed are all in pots, and the
tiles are high enough to hide these A
small greenhouse in the back yard
keeps up reserve supply ofplants, and
hen those in the bed are no longer at
leir best, they are replaced by fresh
ones from the rear Those who wish
to make the most of their front yards,
can take hint from this European
method. and prepare to decorate them
for winter as well as summer.-Ameri-
