Little Girl Who Makes l'laymates ri
Many Things.
Away off in Breckenridge. Colorado.
there lives little girl who is called
Ton, and who possesses in remarkable
degree the power Of tanning birds and
animals
She goes into the yard with her bands
full of bread-crumbs. calls, and is soon
surrounded by flock of black-birds that
perch on her head. shoulders and arms
to eat from her hand.
Her little terrier dog she has taught
a great many tricks. She dresses him
in q red coat and cap like monkey,
and while she plays on an organette, he
dances on his hind-legs. Then there
are her cats, and there is small army
OF them. They follow her around like
dogs, and do almost every thing she
tells them.
But the most remarkable thing is the
tanning Of pair of brown owls that live
in a wood near by. Whenever they are
hungry they fly to the yard, perch
themselves on a revolving clothes-line
in the yard, and call Ton with . sound
like q cat yowling.
When she comes out they fy down to
meet her with as much glee Us is posi-
| bio for pair Of dignitied owls to show,
perch on her wrists and crack their jaws
togethe like nut-crackers, to show her
they are hungry.
She can call them any time by whia'
Ting. and they have grown so tame no a
that they occasionally allow the othe,
members Of the family to hold then,
hut they are much fonder OF Ton tina,
/ Of any one else. Il. L. Chittenden, il

How Milk should lse Set.

The fact that cream rises more quickly
and perfectly ina falling temperature
settles the question ~ to how milk
should be set. says = writer. Everybody
can test 1t for themselves very easily.
Take two vessels with tho same depth
of milk in each, and OF the same quality,
leaving one At animal heat, about ninety.
eight degrees, and cool the other down
to forty-fye degrees before setting. the
room in which it il set being at an even
temperature OF forty-fvs degrees Tho
milk which is cooled to the same tenn
perature as the room before setting will
throw up very little cream. and that
very slowly; because it will receive no
beEefit from an increased difference be-
tween the specific gravities OF the milk
and cream, by reason of falling tenn
perature. The warm milk set will throw
up the cream rapidly and more perfectly.
for the temperature Of the milk will be
steadily falling to that Of the room.

Singing through the flowers and trees,
TIL each mortal fain would seek
The merry. hearted rover.
How about her eyes and ears.

Like the clear, unclouded skies,
Not too eager nor too wise.
So that all she sees and hears
May be worth tile knowing.
