Dosing Trees with Sulphur.

There is prevailing and popular idea that
insects may be driven from trees by boring
holes through the bark into the wood, placing
sulphur therein and plugging the hole There
are some persons who profess to have tried
the experiment with success, to have cleared
trees, such as elms, of the destroying worm,
etc. Prof. c. V. Riley, entomologist of the
department of agriculture, pronounces these
remedies as fallaciouS.
The belief in their efficacy" he says, sis
founded on the supposition that the poison
passes with the sap into general circulation
and with it into the foliage, and is destruct-
i've to leaf eating insects. 1t is an entirely
untounded idea, and is based upon ignorance
Of the fact that the substance remains in
tact and is not taken up in the circulation.
Instances where it has seemed tosucceed have
been recorded, and in such cases its apparent
efficacy was due to a coincident disappear.

The Fox and the Peasant.

One day reynard approached a peasant
who was working in his field and said:
For some reason or other there appears
to be want of perfect confidence between
the peasants and the foxes"
Eyes" replied the peasant as he rested for
a moment
"This makes it unpleasant for both of us,
and have been delegated to see if we could
not come to some mutual understanding"
81 am willing"
Very we'll" continued the fox as he
looked at the sky to hide the twinkle of salts
faction in his eye. ITO prove your full con-
tidence in us leave the door of your hen
house open tonight That will be proof
that you no longer regard US as thieves and
marauders.
The peasant agreed to this, but while he
left the door open he set a trap just inside,
and when he arose next morning, 10! the del
egate was fast in the jaws
us this keeping your agreement with meg''
clustered Reynard as the peasant approached.
Was not the door opens"
yes, but you set this trap inside! Release
me at once, and in future my dealings shall
be with more honest mem"
"Genty, Sir ReynaTd, " said the peasant as
he tapped him on the head with a club; had
you kept to the outside you would never have
known Of my trap The fact that you were
inside proves that you wanted my poultry at
the expense Of my confidence"

LOST TREASURES.

Hitch on the limb of an old cherry tree
Sang ground robin, at morns early peep,
While just beneath her, as snug as could be-
Nestled four dear little birdlings asleep
Tall DER their heads the red timothy rose
Just like a forest the long grasses stood,
Safe from all danger the nest to inclose
While the fond mother went searching for food
Oh, how each Clamored and stretched up it's beak,
Soon as she flew painting hOmeward once more
Down mid the grasses her darlings to seek.
Laden with tidOitS-a plentiful store!
Sometimes on tiptoe | veutured TO look
Down At my pets in their snug, messy nest
Praisng the gold of each sweet open throat
Stroking the down of each fair glossy breast
But, as one morning the meadow crossed,
To- mother bird rent the air with her cries;
What could it mean? Had her darlings been lost
Trying to plume their young wings for the skies?
Searching, | read her wild notes Of distress
Just DER the heads of her innocent brood,
Some cruel vagrant a reed trap had placed,
Frightening the old bird away with her food
Quickly caught up the treacherouS snare
All, my heart bleeds as tell you the rest
Mother bird came, but she found only there
Four little skeletons starved in the nest!

On account OF the cObras timidity and the
great ease with which it can be tanned it is
the only snake with which the snake charmers
will have anything to do. By attracting its
attention With one hand it may easily be
seized round the body with the other, and so
long as the hand or any other object is kept
moving before its eyes it will never turn to
bite the hand that holds it, This is the simple
fact, the knowledge of which the charmers
turn to such advantage in their well known
performances.
The snake is taken from its basket, and
slight stroke across the back brings it at once
INTO defensive attitude. The constant mo-
ton of the musical instrument before the
snake keeps it watchful and erect, and not
the music produced. As n rGatter of fact,
snakes have no external ears, and it is ex-
tremely doubtful whether the cobra hears the
music at all.-Philadelphia Times

Eagles Fish for Trout.

A curious story comes from Clarified
county, Pa Mosquito creek flows through a
wooded part of that county, and the stream
is as full of trout as the dense forest is alive
with various kinds of birds. The eagles find
a peaceful home there, and they are plenty,
too. Some time ago party of lumbermen
bethought themselves that it would be good
scheme to catch the trout that inhabit Mos
quito creek. They could not spare the time
to fish with rod and line, and Franklin Hav-
erstraw, the inventive genius of the camp,
suggested the idea of tying lines to bot
ties. The next day the creek was full of bot
ties with lines on them. They had good luck
for awhile until the bottles began to disap-
pear. To solve the mystery a watch was put
upon the fishing tackle, and Haverstraw and
Chris Moore went on guard. A day passed,
but the bottles were undisturbed, and good
mess of fish was caught. However, the two
men saw several eagles perched high i'll the
tree tops looking suspiciously into the water
below. Then they would soar around and
fly close to the creek, quickly going to the
highest limb of the tallest tree when they saw
the men.
This singular action of the birds set Haver-
straw to thinking and when he told his part
ner that it was his belief that the bottles were
carried off by the eagles Moore secuted the
idea Haverstraw was firm in his conviction
and the next day the two men hid themselves
among the leaves. At o'clock in the morn
ing three large birds came in sight. They
sat on tree for an hour. Then, feeling sure
that they were unobserved, they made a de-
scent, and each caught bottle in its claws
and carried it TO the bank. Each line had
fine trout on it, which the eagles proceeded
to devoHr. The men were dumfounded. For
the first time in their lives they saw an eagle
eating a fish. Haverstraw and Moore re-
manned il their hiding place To their sur
prise the birds made another trip to the river.
Only one line had fish on it, but the other
two birds carried the bottles and lines to the
shore Before they could devour the one fish
Haverstraw and Moore appeared on the
scene and the birds flew off The grounds
were then searched, and many of the missing
bottles and lines were found. To shoot the
eagles was the next measure adopted, and on
the fourth day two of the birds were killed.
The third few away and was not seen again.
