lie Got the Eggs.

A certain Baron Munchausen is
hunting in Florida, and his stories of
the chase are finding their way into
the letters of admiring correspondents
of northern papers. The baron's name
inevitably calls to mind the immortal
Munchausen whose phenomenal lying
has made his name famous for all
time. This gifted mortal's cce in
the hunting Of birds can never be sur
passed by the modern Munchausen.
On one occasion the liar Of a century
ago came across a circle Of quail feed.
ing around a grain stack. The latter
was completely environed by the
birds, and the mighty hunter de.
cided TO have them all. So he
took careful aim, pulled the trig-
ger, and at the same time sent
the barrel of his shot gun so as to
send the charge quite around the
grain stack. Unfortunately, his aim
was too low, and, instead of forty OF
fifty quails, Munchausen bagged
eighty or a hundred quails' legs. Jus,
how he did this his book does not ex,
plain. Probably, if the Florida MIN.
rod is a descendant of the Munchau-
sen, the mystery of the circular shot can
be explained. The name is an unfortu.
nate one TO be associated with hunting
episodes in this skeptical age.-Pitts.

Tho sacrpd White Elephants.

Siam is known as the land Of the
white elephant The elephant is the
imperial animal Of the country, and
you see his picture upon all Of the
hags. The old coins Of the realm have
an elephant on ore side of them. and
the white elephant is here sacred. He
is supposed TO be the embodied spirit
Of some king or hero, and the people
formerly worshiped him, and they do
so TO some extent now. Before going
TO see the palace | had read a glowing
description of the white elephant OF
Siam. expected TO see his tusbss
bound with gold, to find golden chains
about his neck and a superb vel
vet coat of purple, fringed with
scarlet and gold, over his snow
white body. What l did find was
four wild eyed, scraggy looking ele.
plants with long tusks and with
skins not much whittier than those you
see in the American circus. The only
white part about them was their long
tapping ears, which seemed to be af.
ficted with the leprosy. The remain
der Of their skins had the whiteness
only of disease, and | was told, as a
rule, the white elephants of Siam are
mad elephants.
These beasts were in dirty stables
and they were chained by the feet TO
great wooden posts. They had dirty
keepers and there was no sign Of roy.
atty about them. Their keepers fed
them some grass while we were pres
ent and they performed some ordinary
circus tricks for us. The glory Of the
white elephant has in all probability
departed. and the elephants of the in
terror of Siam are made to work quite
as hard as their brothers all over the
world. One of the punishments of
Siam is making convicts cut the grass
for these royal elephants. One Of
them killed his keeper the other day,
and this same holy beast made a snap
at me with his trunk when ! entered

power the weak.
Growing chicks are continually moult-

fact Of their increase in size, is good

Editor Matthew'S Prayer-B0Ok.

When the late Rev. DR.. Ingersoll
died in 1888, the present writer was
called on to report the funeral services.
In writing up the account afterward oc-
casion arose to make direct quotation
from the Book of Common PRAYER, and,
not finding the volume on the book
shelves of the editorial room, the quest
was pursued in Mr. Matthews private
office. Haven't you a prayer-book of
your own?" he asked. Here, wait p
Taking morocco bound copy from his
desk he wrote on its fly leaf line of
presentation, and "in memory of DR..
Ingersoll's funeral" added the date
and his own name, and, handing it to
the reporter, said "There's present

Effects OF an EciinSe.

Exclusion from the suns rays during
even the few brief moments of a total
eclipse has perceptible influence upon
the earth's atmosphere. Elaborate pre-
parations were made for observing the
total solar eclipse of August 10, 1887,
so that P1of. Hesehus has been en-
abled to study the meteorological effect
from the reports of twenty-five stations
in Russia and Siberia. The barometric
pressure was lowered about one-tenth
of an inch, the minimum being from
five to ten minutes after the full
eclipse. This was probably due to
condensation of atmospheric vapor.
The temperature was lowered about
three degrees F. in the shade and ff-
teen degrees in the suns rays, the
minima being reached ten and three
minutes respectively after the full
eclipse. The force of the wind was re-
duced. Evidence concerning influence
upon the compass was contradictory.
Day-plants folded their leaves, night
plants opened their flowers, the higher
animals manifested the usual symp-
toms of uneasiness and fear, and mos
quitoes appeared in the Siberian
marshes as id eyening.-Arkdnsa1U

THE POULTRY-YARD.
Ailments Of Chicks.

Leg weakness and diarrhHa are the
most troublesome ailments prevalent
among young chicks, and may arise from
various causes. Leg weakness usually
attacks the roosters of flock first, and
generally when they are between two and
three weeks old. When recovering from
an attack of it they look as if they were
walking on: stills, especially if it is
caused by too rapid growth. At the first
appearance of it, those afflicted should
be removed to pen by themselves, par
ticular attention being given to the
warmth of the brooder, dryness of the
scratching pen, and an additional guam
THY of bone meal given in their soft feed.
A few drops of tincture of iron should
be given in their drinking water. Should
1t take the form of rheumatism, which is
apparent from swollen hook joints, q
daily amounting of these joints with coal
oil is affective. This treatment would,
of course, not be,practicable with flock
two weeks old, but it has been tried with
chickens six weeks old with marked
benefit. An excess Of heat will only in
crease the trouble. If they preserve a
healthy appearance otherwise, no anxiety
need be felt.
Diarrha,a may arise from two causes,
chill and injudicious feeding. If from
the former they usually die within
twenty four hours. The greatest care
should be observed in feeding, for the
amount of food which must be given, in
order to produce rapid growing chicks,
would naturally give them indigestion,
hence diarrh9a or constipation. Con-
stipation is quite as dangerous as
diarrh@a, as itfrequently causes rupture
Of the intestines. We have seen them

THE DAIRY.
How Much Shall We Feed?

In feeding cows there is sometimes q
loss made by not feeding all the COW
can proftably eat. For instance, if the
COW is getting what rdight be called a
fair ration, enough to supply the food
of support and allow her to give good
yield of rich milk, it might be profitable
to increase the feed and see if all the
additional feed would not go to the pro-
duction of an extra quantity of milk.
There is great difference in the ca
pacity. of COWS to utilize feed profitably;
some will turn all extra feed into milk,
while others will put it into beet. Here
is where breed comes in. Some say it is
all in the feed, but if breed counts for
nothing, then those men who establish
our breeds and thought themselves wise,
worked in vain.
There are few who deny the advantage
of having q good breed to start with,
and those few will become fewer as time
and experience convince them of their
error. Given the right bBeed, then all
depends upon the feed, and. as said
