A BOXING KANGAROO.
He Can "Put Up His Dukes" With Som

no Gan "Put Up HIS Dukes" With Some
OF tho Best Of EN-.
A marked characteristic of many Of
the animals at the Philadelphia ZOO is
their love of play. In fact, most of
them seem to have forgotten that they
ever had savage instincts. The largest
kangaroo in captivity is the big one at
the zoo, which the keepers have nick
named John L." The reason they call
him by that name is because he can box
almost as well as the famous pugilist
himself.
This really clever trick was taught
him by his keeper to whom he is very
much attached. One day while going
in to clean the cage the keeper noticed
that John L." hitherto morose, show
ed decided inclination to play. He
reared himself on his hind legs and put
up his props" just like fighter. The
keeper put his dukes up, too, and
advanced on "John L." The result was
a rather clumsy exhibition of the manly
art.
But this first attempt was enough for
starter, and the big kangaroo proved
willing pupil, so that in short time
he could do almost everything but de-
liver the knockout blow.
Headkeeper Byrne had round or two
with 'John L." recently, and he had
to hustle around the cage pretty lively
to keep the nimble animal from getting
in one or two hard punches. When Mr..
Byrne entered the cage John L."
cooked his head to one side and COM
ically surveyed the visitor.
AS soon as Mr.. Byrne put himself in
a fighting attitude the willy kangaroo
did likewise, and began to fiddle his
paws up and down much after the
fashion of an old-style pugilistic ex-
ponent. He slowly advanced toward
the keeper, and every move he made
had a suggestion about it of business.
When Mr.: Byrne finally left the cage
"John L." fairly seemed to smile de-
risively at the easy manner in which he
had vanuuiShed his foe N v Journal

RiDDLING THE SOIL.
An Easy Job When You Know just ii

An Easy Job When You Know Just How
to Do 1t.
The method referred to is the one
shown in our engraving. 1t consists in
having handbarrow or other recepta-
Gle to receive the prepared soil. On
this a sieve that is an inch or so wider
than the barrow should be placed to
slide upon it. After the sieve is about
two-thirds filled with unsifted soil. it
is worked quickly back and forth by a
person at one end of the barrow, until
its contents are properly riddled.
The task is quick and easy one. If
two persons engage in it, one to vibrate
the sieve, the other to shovel in the

compost from the heap and to assist in
emptying the barrow when full on the
potting bench or elsewhere, it takes
but short time to riddle a large
amount of soil, provided it is in a suita-
BILE condition for the operation. To
sift well, soil should be moderately dry:
the presence of some sand in it will
help much.-Popular Gardening.

An Excellent Plan for the PasturInv of

I Reg to suggest plan which l have
used for pasturing both sheep and pigs.
If the pigs have been used to control,
or are well ringed, as they should be
when pastured, hurdle light enough
for sheep will answer equally well for
them. The hurdle may be made of by
4 chestnut uprights and l by 8 bars.
They may be 10 feet long and made in
this shape:
The three lower boards are inches
apart, and barbed wire is stretched
between the lowest two. No pig over

Dancing enters into great many of
the religious ceremonies in Thibet,
where the inhabitants spend a great
part of their time in worship and it's at
tendant festivals. Prince Henry of
Orleans, eldest son of the duke of
Chartres, recently returned from a jour-
ney of exploration in Central Thibet.
With M. Bouvalot, the noted explorer,
and a company of guides and servants,
he crossed the desolate country between
lakes Lob Nor and Tengri Nor, mar
rowly escaping loss among the glaciers.
In Lhasa, the sequestered capital of
Thibet, which they reached after many
hardships, they saw many religious
dances. The most str liking of these
was dance by masked priests, deco
rated with the ropes with which they
are accustomed to fagellate themselves.
Despite the fact that Prince Henry was
announced as person of high degree,
he got an occasional cut with the rope
when his curiosity led him to crowd too
near the dancers.-N. Y. journal.

Shortly after Dolly wished to go back
and visit the cottage, and we locked
our house and returned to Nashville.
The Sunday after we arrived there we
three visited the cemetery. Aunt Dolly
sunk on her knees by the side of her

on the green sod that covered it.
