Down Aftor More Hay.

Many years ago Nathaniel Wilbur, of Dur
ham, was popularity supposed to be the man
in town who could build a load of hay in the
least time and in the best manner.
One day he made a wager with his three
sons that he could take care of the hay as fast
as they all could pitch it into the rack
He succeeded in this very well until the load
began to rise above and overhang the sides OF
the rack.
In his eagerness to Guido the old gentleman,
one of the boys, with his forkful of hay,
forced his father over the opposite side upon
the ground
fastening around to render assistance, II
necessary, the boys found their father on his
feet with his arms full of the hay be had
dragged off with him, good naturedly wait
ing for them.
"Why, father, what are you doing hereF'
asked one Of the young men.
"Doingl am down after some more hay;
there is nothing up there for me to do."-

THE LADY LoBsTERAND THE SHARP

The Lady Lobster loved the Shark
That swan in the dark blue sea,
But she had TO keep It 30 dreadfully dark
That her lover was haRkering, cankering Carl
For the Shark didn't care for she.
The Lady Lobster Ianguid lay
In the rockweed's deepest gloom,
And she wept, for she felt herself pining away
In her fresh young chickenish glad heydsy,
And the flush Of her early bloom.
Her shell was bright and beautiful blue,
And her eyes were beautiful pink,
And her claws were an exquisite lavender hue
And of antenn@ she'd thrty-two-
No commonplace charms, think.
The Eels and the Doghsh sued in vain,
And the Jellyfish worshiped afar,
And the Sturgeon woed her again and again
And the Bass and the Tomcod swelled her train,
And she was the dream OF a Gar.
But the Lady Lobster in her lagoon
She sighed for her darling Shark
By light of sun, and GgGt Of moon,
And from morn till eve, and from night till noon
And from daylight until dark
One day a venturesome skipper came
A-sailing along the sea,
And he thirsted for great piscatorial fame,
So he baited a hook for very big game,
And he heaved it merrilee.
The Shark was taking a lazy swim
That thriced accused day
When the Lady Lobster remarked to him,
AS she wagged her lavender claw so slim
In her own ladylobsterlike way;
"A constitutional, suppose
Do you keep your old relish for food?
trust you are free from dyspeptic woes
IF n thing ryafS down do vo1 find fhat enraaag
Is your appetite always goody"
The Shark he Topped his dorsal fin
And he smiled expansivelee,
$50 long as my mouth can take it IN,
From a chair to bathers reluctant shin,
It's sure to be good" said he
Just then the shippers alluring line
Came dangling down by his chin,
And the Shark proceeded to turn Supine
although twas little too early to dine)
In order to gather it in.
But the watehful, quick, pink eye OF love
In the Lady Lobster saw,
AS the slender line swung down from above,
That the shippers bait would dangerous prove
To her darling's dear old nav,
In the fash of q fin she had made up her mind
How to meet the emergencee,
Anu ilSi piAh eyes CiOSSN AIOI lONc - UnHuJI
And all her antenne she swiftly entwined
Lest they should tickle he
One glance Of love she ventured TO cast
And she blushed a deeper blue;
And then as swift as the winters blast
She sprang down that mouth SO vast
And upward the bubbles flew
Those jaws closed up with cruel crunch,
And the hook swept harmless by;
And the Shark gave gentle MUNICH
And he felt himself comforted by his lunch
For Love had dared to diet
She had won the right to be with him
At morn and noon and night;
And since she had made so free with him,
She did her best to agree with him,
And.to keep his digestion right.
The Lady Lobster quiet lies,
The Shark he swims the bay.
Ye maids, cease your wailing cries
Ye mermaids dry your streaming eyesl
Love will find out a way.
Sweet heartl
Love will get there some day.

THE SUN AND FIRE woRsHIPERs.

The ancient Persians, though they believed
in a sun god or spirit, Mithras, worshiped the
sun as the mighty creation and brilliant en-
blam Of the Great Spirit, who had neither
temples nor images. When the Arabs con-
Quered Persia in the middle of the Seventh
century, they called the people Guebres, or
tire worshipers, on account of the generation
in which fire was held amongst them, and
from their preserving certain fires as sacred
and all those who would not acknowledge
Mohammed as their prophet were driven
from the country, or into the most remote
mountain Businesses, where some of their de-
reendants still linger. Great numbers Of
those Persians who chung to the faith of their
fathers migrated to India, where they formed
settlements at Bombay and at other places on
Jhe western coast; and they have since be-
come fiourishing communities, and are known
as Rarsees, from their ancient name.

The peanut is useful product-much more
so, indeed, than people imagine We all know
how extensively it is eaten in its roasted
state, but therein, by no means, lies the ex-
tent of its value. The nuts contain from AZ
to 0per cent. of nearly colorless, bland,
fixed OIL, resembling olive oil, and used for
similar purposes. The best is obtained by
cold expression, but > large quantity of in
ferior oil is procured by heating the seeds be-
fore pressing. 1t is non-drying oil, chang
ing but slowly by exposure to the atmos-
phere, and remaining fluid in a cold several
degrees below 50 dogs. Fair It contains,
beside oleic and palmitic acids, two other oily
acids, which have been called the arabic and
hypogeic, though it is doubtful if they are
really distinct. The principal consumption
of the oil is in soap making. In 1888 Vir-
ginia began the manufacture of peanut flour,
the result being peculiarly paIatable bis
cult, while Georgia has long made pastry of
pounded peanuts.
The kernels roasted are largely used in the
manufacture Of chocolate, while the amanda
de terre, as has been shown, is used by the
confectionerS. 1t is also eaten as fruit and
roasted for coffee. The poor mans fruit, the
peanut, is capable Of sustaining life for a long
time, owing to its peculiarly nutritive quail
ties, the negroes using it alike in porridge,
custard or as beverage Nor does its use
fulness end here, for the vines form SPLEEN
did fodder, as good as clover hay, while hogs
will fatten on what they find in the fields
after the crop has been gathered. 1t is an
easy crop to raise, the demand for nuts has
trebled within the past few years, and the
supply has never yet equaled the demand.
The quantity used in this country may be set
down at 3,OOO, 900 bushels.
