a Maori Essay on the ostrich.

The following copy of q composition
of a New Zealand boy on the subject of
"What Do You Know About an Os-
trichi' was received by a lady in this
city from a friend in England who takes
an active part in missionary work.:
.'The ostrich is an African animal that
lives on sand and generally hunts on
horseback. The female makes a nest in
the sand, which is simply a deep hole,
and tlien the male lays in it ten or
twelve eggs, which he matches, for max
ing ornaments and for food for his fam
lily. These eggs chase their parent all
over the desert till he is quite tired, poor
fellowi
"The three tail feathers of this ostrich
form the motto 'Iserve,' and they belong
TO the Prince of Wales, who is also fond
of these tail feathers. This ostrich is
often used for drinking cups and other
various amusements, but it is chiefly
valued for the beautiful feathers, which
are found on his legs-and those that
grow on the egg shell. "-Pittsburg Dis

Glover Knoe1ed silly.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb, aT.s~Frank GLOW
er was badly whipped in the California
club by Joe Choynski, a prominent local
amateur. Though ten pounds heavier,
Glover was never really in the fight.
Choynski outsparred him, outfought
him atllong and short range, and hit
three times as hard. Glover was
knocked out in the fourteenth round
and had to be carried from
the ring. He lost half his teeth
and his face was beaten to q jelly. He
will probably be confined to his bed for
II week. Choynski escaped without q
scratch. barring a slight confusion over
the left eye. He is only 90 years old,
and this was his first professional battle.
Glover was in great condition, end
Choynski's victory over him VIII give
him backing for any amount over al
most any ITO pound man inthe country,
The fight created great interest here.

A woman,s Tribute.

A woman has q more excellent way Of
~bestowing a favor than a man. One day
in 1865 Rosa Bonheur was surprised
while working in her studio to receive a
visit from the Empress Eugene, who en-
tered unannounced.
The empress kissed the artist as she
rose to receive her royal visitor, and,
after a few minutes conversation, de-
parted as unceremoniously as she had
entered.
The woman artist discovered that the
woman sovereign had pinned upon her
working blouse the cross of the Legion
of Honor.
The emperor, who had hesitated to
confer the decoration on the artist be-
cause she was a woman, had left the en-
press regent during his absence from
France. One of her first acts was to
drive over from Fontainebleau, heal the
studio, and decorate Rosa Bonheur with
her own hlnd.-Youth's Companion.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.--Mrs. Cleve-
lands last reception atthe White House,
Tuesday afternoon, was attended by up
wards of four hundred visitors. 1t par
took somewhat of the nature of a melan-
choly parting with tile majority of the
callers. Mrs. Cleveland stood in her
usual place, the entrance of the blue
room, TO greet the guests. She wore a
brown costume of broadcloth. made
with a simple plated skirt and cutaway
jacket. At the expiration Of an hour,
when those who had fingered late to say
farewell, felt it compulsory upon them
to make the move, there were few dry
eyes in the room. and most of those who
had so long enjoyed the friendship of
the presidents wife, wept quietly in the
background.

TIE DARK.



FOR supplying cheese factories, and
Tor the regular run of milk for retailing,
we consider the Ayrshire at the head.
TIE dairy COW ought to be kept as a
milk and butter machine, and she
should be studied with the greatest
care.
EVERY COW in the butter dairy should
yield ten pounds Of butter a week for
the first twelve weeks of her milking to
be considered a good COW.
WASHING butter while in the gran
ular state is dairy wisdom; sailing with
brine is certainly the most thorough
way. Washing and sailing while in
grains is the only way to get ria of the
buttermilk flavor.
THE greater the producing power OF
your COWS, and the more thoroughly you
have them surrounded BY oircumstanc es
favOring the highest production, the
more marked viii be the result of any
evil influences to which they may sud
denly be subjected.
In summer the milk should be set as
soon after milking as possible, and as
near normal tenn erature as possible.
If you can set the milk at temperature
of IS degree to SO deFgees, and cool it
down to IS or 48 degree, you Will get all
the cream inside of ten hours.
A SUCCESSFUL dairyman says: ANY
COW that Will not pay in the extra yield
of butter for four quarts of corn meal
daily, given in two meals, should be dis
carded from the herd. There are some
good COWS, however, that will probably
repay the cost Of half this quantity Of
food, and are unable to digest more
than that, that might be excepted from
the general rule.
IF you use ice IN your dairy, don't for
get that if you are to get the best results
you must use the ice within five minutes
of the time the milk comes from the
COW. Don't forget, either, that the cold
of the ice should not be applied until
the milk is strained and set. To cool
the milk and start the process of separa-
ton and then strain, is to throw away
both ice and cream,

THE APIARY.
Alters war1ning.

Giving the old swarm a young fertile
queen as soon as the first swarm has left
Will usually prevent all second swarm
ing, at least for the time being, is the
verdict of A. B. c., of Bee CGJttUre, for
tha laying queen viii soon destroy all
queen cells, or induce the bees to do so.
A simpler method. and one that we be-
levy succeeds almost Invariably IS to
remove the old colony as soon as the
first swarm is out, and set the new one
on the same stand. This has the effect
of getting all the flying bees into the
new swarm and leaving the old one so
destitute that the queen which matches
first is allowed to destroy all the rest OF
the cells. By this plan We are spared
the trouble of opening the hive, but are
obliged to carry each hive to a new
stand as soon as IL has swarmed. If the
queens wing is clipped, and we are at
hand, we can manage EWarm1ng by tins
method very expeditiOuslY. As soon as
the bees commence sWarming, pick up
the queen and carry away the hive they
are coming out of; place the new one in
its stead; and as soon as the bees com
mence coming back to look for her, put
the queen among them, and your hive is
swarmed without their clustering at all.
This plan works excellentIy and the
bees 60 right 70 work, apparently as
perfectly satisfied as if they had clus-
tered In the usual way. The only OBJ
lection Is that an ineZp erlenced person
might not find the queen readily. and
she might be lost; also We are Obliged
to be on hand or risk losing our queens
1tshoUld be borne In mind that swarm
which issues month or more after the
first sWarning. is not TO be considered
al after-sWarm; for in this case 1t VIII
