A HAWKS REASONING.
How He Carried His Prey Against tl
 Wind with Comparative Ease.

How He Carried His Prey Against tho
 Wind with Comparative Ease.
 Birds of prey generally possess instinct enough for all ordinary emergencies. There are, however, special occasions on which call is made for unusual sagacity, aLd 1t Is then that we see how near these creatures come to reasoning in the same way as our selves. The author of "'Twixt Ben Nevis and Glencoe" gives, bearing upon this point, a story which he had from the keeper on an estate in that neighborhood.
 One day in July the keeper in question, happening to be out after vermin with his gun, saw coming in his direction a bird which he knew to be some kind of hawk, but whose manner of flight puzzled him ex- tremely. It was beating up the wind to- ward him as if with a sorely wounded wing, manifestly impeded in some way that caused it to zigzag anu struggle strangely in Its fight.
 Seelng that If 1t kept it's course it was likely to pass within easy shot, the keeper quietly retired into a clump of ferns on one knee, with his gun ready for action. He had, however, to wait longer than he had expected, for the hawk meanwhile alighted on the top of large gray powder hun dred yards away, and seemed very busy about something, though what it was the keeper at that distance could not make out.
 In about ive minutes, however, the hawk took wing again, this time with much more steady and even flight. He was soon overhead, and near enough to drop to the keepers gun. On going up to his prize the keeper found that it was indeed a hawk, and beside it was lying plump partridge, well grown, but to the keepers surprise al- most altogether stripped of it's feathers.
 On going to the powder on which the kestrel had rested for awhile, all the miss ing feathers of the partridge were found scattered about, and the keeper instantly took in the state of matters from first to last and explained it thus:
 The kestrel, having struck down the partridge, was carrying the dainty morsel to his greedy f1edglings in their nest. The wind, however, was strong and gusty and ad- verse to the kestrel's line of fiji ght and of the wind, the wings and tail, limp and pendant, of the partridge caught so much that it was only with great difficulty the plucky little captor could make any satisfactory head way.
 Getting tired of the struggle at last he must have reasoned with himself some what after this fashion:
 My partridge burden is more difficult to get along with than it really need be. am heartily ashamed of myself, acting thus like booby. I will take rest on yonder bowl der and pluck away all the wing and tail feathers of my dainty bit of game, an opera tion which, while it leaves my partridge quite as big and good to eat as before, will enable me to bear it up and carry 1t against the wind with cOmnarative eaSe1

HELPS IN THE HOUSEHOLD.

THE best way to mend torn leaves of books is pasting them with white tissue paper. The print will show through it.
 To REMOVE the shiny look from black clothes wash we'll, then dip black cloth in hot tea and coffee, equal parts of each, and sponge clothes.
 PEACH CoBBLER.-Lines dripping pan with paste; fill with fruit, sugar and flour in correct proportion; make fast the cover and bake one hour.
 MUSK MELON SAUcE.-Remove the seeds and skins and cut in small. square pieces. Cover with sweet cream, add little sugar, and serve at once.
 ENTIRE wheat flour is said to require less shortening than ordinary flour. It IS
 wholesome food, makes good nasty pud- ding, gems, bread, cakes and even pie-crust.
 IF soft-wood unpainted floors are mopped
 with a small quantity of very hot water,
 and thoroughly wiped, they will be far winter than if soaked and vigorously scrubbed.
 IF au ordinary glass fruit jar be set on a towel which has been thoroughly wet with
 cold water, hot fruit may be poured into 1t
 without any danger of its breaking. The
 jar needs no further preparation.
 IT is worth while to paste light manila
 paper over the back of every picture frame
 not already so protected, as 1t eheotually
 prevents dust from reaching the pictures.
 Itis always done nowadays by frst-class | framers.
 A KNIFE CLEANER.-Take two boards
 about eighteen inches long by six inches
 wide. Nail belt of leather over these
 boards and fasten them together by hinges.
 Lay the knife between the boards, which have been sprinkled with bath brick, and
 rub the knife rapidly between them. A paste made with emery powder and sweet oil is excellent for fine knives. HARTsuoRN L1N1MENT.-Two parts sweet oil and one part water of ammonia, spirits Of
 hartshorn. Shake it up and you have | thick white mixture, which for spralns, 1 bruises, sore throat, etc., IS unsurpassed. If you want to use it for rheumatism, neu- ralgia, etc., add to half Q pint of the hnl- ment one-half ounce tincture of iodine and one ounce spirits of camphor. WIEN there is @ shrinkage in canned
 fruit jars it is sure test that the fruit has
 been put up properly and will keep. The fruit and glass are both put up hot and consequently expanded; when cold, the glass, and more especially the sirup, con- | tract and leave vacuum, showing 1t IS air. tight. On opening such cans the covers will cling with resistance equal to the vacuum.
 MAPLE SUGAR CAKE.-Take pound Of
 maple sugar, rolled or scraped fine, half
 pound of butter and four or five tablespoon fuls of milk Cook the whole till the butter
 melts. Stir very thoroughly, then add scant tablespoonful of ginger and half a pound of flour. Beat well. Sift heaping | tablespoonful of baking powder in half a l cup of flour and stir into the cake, beating vigorously again. Bake the cake in thin sheetS

IT is probably not true that Roger Q.
 Mills said that the democrats propose to rule the next house just the same as if they were still in the majority. MT Mills and his party associates are firm believers in the principle that the majority should rule. It is only among republicans, as in Connecticut for in- stance, where exception is taken to the beneficent principle of rule by the majority. Mir Mills was misrepresented.

How and When to Drink Water


According to DR.. Leuf, when water
is taken into the iull or partly full
stomach,it does lot mingle with the
food. DIS we are lauaht, but passes
along quickly between the food and
lesser curative toward the pylorus,
through which it passes into the In
testines, The secretion Of mucus by
the lining membrane ls constant, and
during TIE night a considerable
amount aeeumulaes in the stomach !;
some Of IT'S liquid portion is absoi bed,
and that which remains is thick and
tenacious. lffood is taken into the
stomach wher in this condition il
becomes coated With this mucus, and
the secretion Of the gastric juice aid
its action are delayed. These f.cts
show the value Of a goblet of water
before breakfast. This washes out
the tenacious mucus, and stimulates
the gastric glands to secretion. In
old and feeble persons wafer should
not be taken cold. but 1t many be
with great advantage taken warm or
hot. This removal Of the accumula-
ted mucus from the stomach Is pro-
baby one Of the reasons WITTY taking
soup at the beginning Of b meal has
been found so beneficial.

Close of the Teachers Institute

The two weeks of the Teachers Coun-
ty institute came to close this after
nooon. Although in session but a
very short time, it has proved
in the hands of the able instruc-
tors, sufficient for impsrting a great
amount of useful knowledge. The one
hundred and eighty members have made
good use of the time. The morning ses-
sions have been entirely devoted to the
discussion of different methods of pre-
senting the several studies to the schol-
ars in the most beneficial way; in other
words. fitting the members of the insti-
tute for the capacity of thorough teach
ers. The hour spent in the afternoon
has been entirely given up to academic
study. Although the class attending the
afternoon session was not as large as tina
attending the morning session, it has
proven to be very profitable.

A few days ago three men stood talking

any one of the three to be much forty,
while he probably would have put the tallest
and youngest looking at about thirty-five
Yet this man was Joseph Whiting, who was
a promising young actor in the early days Of
the war, and his companions were Stuart
Robson and W. J. Florence. To the many
people who have laughed at and with Robson
as the juvenile and innocent BERTHE of THE

he is about twelve years older than his former
partner, W. H Crane, seems almost incredi-
bic. Mr.. Florence is about fifty-eight, but
his appearance has scarcely changed in the
last fifteen years.-New York Tribune.
