prevent dirt from showing on top of the

and have him take some three-eighth

each plank, and will take as many
teeth, which should he driven in SO as
to project four inches below the bottom
of the plank. Make the holes in the
second plank so that they will break
joints with the other row, that is, so
they will not track after the others.
These will cut and comb the ground in
a remarkable manner, and the small
Jumps that pass between will be ground
to powder by the sharp edges of the
planks that follow. The driver stands
on the crusher while working, or seat
may be firmly attached to it. Should
there be much rubbish, this will bother
very often, but this can be obviated
somewhat by driving staple near the
back edge of the rear plank; into this
tie one end of small rope two or three
feet long, aud the other end into ring
to be held in the right hand. To dump
rubbish, step with the left foot upon
the slanting board at the front and at
the same time lift up with the rope,
which is all easily and quickly done,
and the obstruction will be drawn from
the tooth as the crusher moves forward.
In using the tool after the corn planter,
the teeth should be driven back so as
not to run so deep as to disturb the
seed.-American Agriculturist.

Why CATS ARE THIN.
1t IL Because They Are Always Lying IL
Wat for Prey.

1t IL Because They Are Always Lying in
Wat for Prey.
Have you ever inquired how it is that
cats can comb ine with their proverbial
idleness such great agility? Muscular
inaction leads just as much in other
kinds of animals as in the human spe-
cies to obesity; the dog which does not
hunt, the horse kept in the stable, be-
comes fat and sluggish. Wild animals,
even, If kept in a cage, where they are
forced into the repose of domestic life,
very rapidly lose their slenderness Of
figure and their ease of movement.
Why does the cat escape tho ordinary
law, and why, in spite of the fact that
it rarely moves, does it seldom become
fat, as does dog or horse under similar
circumstances?
1t is because its inability is not that
of inaction, and its nerves are working
while its muscles seem at rest. Like
the fencer waiting the moment to at
tack, the cat is constantly ready to
spring. 1t is always watching some.
thing-a rat, fly or joint of meat
A drawing-room cat makes only three
or four springs in the course of day,
but each of them has been preceded by
two or three hours of latent work.
When we believe that the animal is
engaged in a happy dream it is medi-
tating a capture. calculating the dis
lance of its spring and holding its mus
cles in readiness for any thing that
may happen.
Hence it is never taken by surprise
If little bird escapes from the cage it
is caught and eaten in three seconds.
The cat has been watching it for a week.
When it seemed asleep it was lying in
wait--Lagrange's Physiology.

TWO OLD FRIENDS.

That rusty pair Of scissors and that dingy pot
fpaste
May not be called a monument OF literary taste,
But they're very u 'eful ornaments, with quiet,
peaceful ways.
And they come in mighty handy on the miscel,
lany days.
don't believe 1 would enjoy the books and
If didn't have this pair of friends to catch the
in betweenS;
The little scraps Of dainty verse, and stories
worth the reading,
That go to make paper bright after judicious
wedding.
Suppose I find some melody like Whitcomb
Riey's lines,
Where you hear the boys awhistling among the
summer pines,
don't allow the fugitive chance to get away
But cut it out and paste it, and use it the next
day.
Perhaps it's something funny that chance to
come upon,
Or little bit Of wisdom, how this or that Is
done;
Or scrap of well told pathos that 1 think will
bring the tears;
Then, Just from force OF habit grab the old
brown shears.
Yes, they're public educators, and they always
seem to cut
A little better when they lift some gem from out
the rut
or suicides aud murders, and long yarns from
other shores,
Or stories about breadstuffs, or low Benny does
his chores.
And in the years I've used them they have had
a bit to do
With nearly al the folks who write, big ones
and little, too.
And 1 thil., they've given pleasures and per-
haps have lightened care
Because they've caught tome sunshine In the
journalistic air
And have helped to shape it for you, 'mongst
the other things you read
For the brains a curious creature and requires
lots of feed
And you can laugh at paste pots and at scissors,
too, trow,
And say that pen and paper and grand Web
sterian brow
Are quite enough material to build paper up.
But the man who knows his bust less and wants
to fill the cup
To quench the public thirstiness and suit the
public taste
Will do as Dana does sometimes-let poor news
run to waste
And use some one elSe's good things, with help
of shears and paste.

A CITY OF ARCHES.
The Quaint italian Town Of Do1og
and Its Arcadei Streets.

The Quaint italian Town Of Bologna
and Its Arcadei Streets.
Bologna of Northern Italy is spoken
of frequently as "a city of arches" The
street walks are almost without excep-
ton arcaded, presenting interminable
rows Of arch and column. The in
Vulnerable court-yards are story upon

curves; while stretching three miles
into the country, up the Pilgrim Church,
winds like huge serpent the arched

of them dark and narrow; but there is
generally plenty of sunshine in the
courtyard or 'cortile," that great Cos.
siping ground of the inhabitants Of the
building and forum of public opinion in
the "palazzo" (for in this favored place
living in palace is within the reach Of
most). 1t seems admirably adapted for
this purpose from its semi-p1olic char
acter, which the tenants sake advantage
of to the fullest extent.
Tho streets are great contrast to
many of the other Italian cities. Not
grass-grown and deserted like Ferrara,
nor squalid and malarlal like sone in
Ravenna. In the principal ones the
arcades are filled with life, crowded at
times, and lined with gay shops like
the Palais Royal. There the similarity
ends, for the throng Of people is like no
other out of Italy. where color is always
dominant Here are the ever-present
soldiers in bright uniforms, with tight
est of trousers, putting their inevitable
"Virginia" cigars of enormous length;
priests in their long, black gowns and
three-cornered hats, gliding by with
books in their hands; or sturdy peasant
women from the country, with their
wide brimmed, straw hats, and in con-
trast women in tho latest Partisan
fashion, dandies, too, dressed in the
EXTREMIST style, in way only an
Italian dandy can, and peasants attired
like stage bandits, with earrings,
and faces the color of an old meer-
schaum, lounge by. Mysterious cara

Prince Bismarck Could Be a Very Small
Potato on Occasion.
The following story of Bismarck is
told in recent number of the London
Speaker: "A German gentleman OF
famous name, of ample fortune, member
of Parliament, connected with the best
people of his country by social as we'll
as family ties, conspicuous by reason of
his philanthropy, hospitality and charm
Of his family gatherings, lived not many
miles from Berlin when the Kingdom Of
Prussia became the Empire of Germany.
No man at this time was more welcome
as that of his sovereign than this Mr..
X. In those days Bismarck stood for
national greatness as represented by
the defeat of France and the unification
of Germany, and in his task no stancher
ally of the Government could be wished
than the Liberal party, of which Mr..
X. was an honored leader. Little by
little, however, men like Mr.. X. began
to feel that Germany even without

fered from him not merely as enemies
of their country but Of himself as we'll.
Mr.. X. had chosen to vote against
Government measure intended to raise
the duty on corn. Bismarck remonstrat-
ed with him on the subject, and by vari-
Gus means sought to win his support,
but without success. Mr. x. recognized
perfectly that his course made social
intercourse with his )ate friend prob
lematical, and was therefore somewhat
surprised to receive an invitation to dine
at the palace of the Prime Minister
shortly after these unsuccessful ap-
proaches. The guests assembled, and
the Prince moved from one to the other,
greeting each with CHEEKY, bluff
heartiness, until he reached Mr.. x,
whom he purposely left until the very
last Here he paused deliberately,
looked at his late ally from head to foot,
then turned on his heel. and without
saying one word walked into the dining
room. His guest, who had been accus-
toned only to the best society, was at
first so taken aback that he scarcely re-
allied that an insult could have been in
tended. The truth, however, gradually
dawned upon him; he mechanically
moved toward the door of the hall,
picked up his hat and crossed the
threshold of that house for the last

Migratory Instinct Of tho Jews.

From the time of Abraham to the
present, the migratory instinct has beef,
strong among Jews. Mesopotamia,
Canaan, Egypt Canaan once more,
Assyria, Babylonia, Persia, Canaan q
third time, and then the whole world, is
the route of migration, the itinerary, as
it we're. of the Hebrew race. The Jews
are indeed the tribe of the wandering
foot" The existence of Jews in out-of-
the-way corners of the earth-the Fela-
shas and Beni-Israel and the Cochin
Jews is only accounted for by their
wandering instincts: No doubt that in
stinct has been strengthened by perse-
cntion, but now when peace prevails,
the Jew still retains his fondness for
traveling.-N. 7. Ledger.
