Little Oscars Damp Ride.

This town was much excited one af.
ternoon recently over an encounter
which Master Oscar Wheatley had
with a tarpon. The fish was fully six
feet long. Oscar cast his line from the
wharf. II was not attached TO a pole,
and the great silver monster fastened
on TO it. The wharf is ncarly a mile
long, ~encircling the bayou.
Oscar is quite q frail lad, about 10
years old The fish started seaward,
drawing Oscar like a cork; then back
again at a 2:40 gait; then again be
leaped in the air and tried 10 tear the
hook loose, and in this way the sport
went on for nearly an hour, the boy
refusing assistance and hanging on
like grim death. Finally the great
fish gave up, and a man came with q
spear TO help drag him out; but in
throwing the spear into the fish the
blow struck the line and the weapon
did not stick. So the fsh got away

On MI, Desert Rock,

People who only visit the Maine
lighthouses during a summer holiday,
can have little idea Of what life means
10 the brave men and women those
home is on these lone rocks by tue sea
all the year round. At Mt. Desert
rock, for instance, the waves at times
have washed entirely over the rock,
and the keepers with their families
have had TO take refuge in the tower,
but even here the keepers have sue
eeeded in raising a few flowers and
fresh vegetables in earth brought
from the main land and deposited in
sheltered spots. Sea birds lay their
many eggs on this barren rock and
they are never molested. Lewiston

Birds Eye Maple.

Professor Beal finds that the pecu-
liar markings ia birds eye maple do
occur in young trees up TO about three
inches in diameter, nor very high up
in trees which are very much pitted at
the base. A specimen taken fifty feet
above the ground showed no trace of
birds eye, while another from near
the base vi the same tree was very
strongly marked. II the cause Of
these formations could be discovered
and used TO produce the marks, it
would add greatly to the market value
of the timer, for the wood Of this
maple and Of other trees somewhat
similarly marked is comparatively
scarce aud in great demand for We

Ways to Cook Oysters.

The following methods Of cooking
oysters will be found a pleasant var
iation upon the usual ways Of prepar-
ing them: l. Tripe and oysters is a
favorite English dish. Cut some
ready-prepared tripe into small pieces
and boil for one hour in milk and
water; drain and mix with two-thirds
its bulk of fricasseed oysters, cover
with bread crumbs, dot with butter
and brown quickly. 2. Have some
large, well cleaned oysters in their
shells, lay them in a gridiron over the
brightest of Goals (your fire must be
clear and bright, the round side
down. As fast as they open transfer
them to hot plates and let each guest
remove the upper shell for himself,
dipping the choice morsel within in
to savory condiment composed OF
melted butter, lemon juice, salt and
white and red pepper. Or you may
place them round side down, in a
baking-pan in a baking-pan in a very
hot oven. As soon as they open take
them out of their shells and lay upon
slices OF toast which have been light
ly dipped in boiling cream. Put a
few drops of the above condiment on
each oyster and garnish with cress
and olives.

Pruning Grape Vines.

Where the best results are desire d
in grapes culture pruning must be
practised. 1t is undeniable that grape
vines left to the course of nature will
in many instances produce very sat
isfactory crops and of equally salts
factory quality, but where the per-
lection OF fruit is desired, in the size
and completeness of punches, prun-
ing must be practised. We should
not like to say that grape vine in
its most natural habitat and under
the most favorable conditions of a
natural state would not produce as
great weight of fruit or even greater
than if subjected to the severe prun-
ing that ordinary practice would SUBJ
ject it to, but it is always desirable
to secure the nearest approximation
to perfection in the production ofany
fruit.
As a rule the pruning Of the grape
should be very largely done in the fall,
soon after the foliage has been drop
ped, but not to its full extent. There
are different systems Of pruning and
each has its advocate. On some ac-
counts that system which confines
the vines most nearly to the ground
is very much to be preferred. For
this reason the horizontal arm system
which confines the shoots to within
few feet of the ground, seems to pos
sess decided advantages, first because
it requires less vines per acre it saves
time in lying it prevents anything
from growing underneath the vines,
admits Of free circulation OF air, a
sure preventive Of disease the fruit
ripens more uniformly; it is more
conveniently harvested ; it makes a
symmetrical and properly proper
toned vine. In this system the prun-
ing is severe, and if it is done in the
fall should not be complete, by two
or three buds that is, cut of at a
point and then leave the end until
toward spring, when the process
should be completed by clipping OIL
the remaining buds. If properly
done with care the grape will bear
what appears to be severe treatment,
giving in return punches of large,
we'll developed fruit, delightful to the
eve as we'll as to the taste.

T etter and BoiIs.

For years | was afflicted with an
aggravated case of letter. | tried
lotions, salves, soaps, and other out
ward applications, without any ben
eticial results. In addition to the
letter, Boils commenced breaking
out all over my body, causing me so
much pain that / had to quit work
and go to bed. | then decided that
/ had started wrong, and instead Of
using external treatment ought to
go TO the seat Of the disease and pur-
ify my blood, as it was obviously bad
blood that caused both the letter
and the Boils. took several blood
purifiers without any good effects.
About the time my case was declared
incurable commenced taking s. s. s.
In few weeks the letter was cured,
and one by one the Boils disappeared,
until was entirely and permanently
cured. This was three years ago, and
since then have been free from any
skin eruptions. Ny skin is now, and
has been for three years, as smooth
as any ones S. s. s. not only cured
me of the letter and Boils, but also

Watches In Card Cases.

Among the latest novelties in the
way of card cases is q very dainty littlo
one made of very finely dressed leather.
In one corner OF the case is set O tiny
little watch. Tho effect of this is very
pretty, and, besides this, the combina-
zion is very useful ono. Ladies are often
put to agreat doal of troublei in taking
out thoir watches when on tho street.
Carrying this little timo-picco set in
their card case or pocl1ct-book saves
them all this trouble, and then, too,
when making calls they have littlo
gentle romindor in their hands that
they must not overstay their welcome.
Watches SGT in this way in card cases
and pocket-bools are much moro popular
than tho bracelet watch attachment.
Tho novelty was imported from Paris,
but is now being manufactured very
largely in this country. The cost of
these card cases and pocket-books is
from soven dollars and fifty cents up
