Some fifteen years ago, on the green
hills, in sight of the beautiful Pennesee-
wassee, browsed an old horse which had
been through the war with its owner, a
quarterlnaster. 1t would lake a long
time to tell all that this intelligent ami
NAL knewa and could do; but it was this
which especially excited the admiration
of the village mammals.
The school house was three miles from
the barn from which old Betsy drew a
pung full Of little ones everyday. After
arriving at the school the Oldest would
secure the reins, turn Betsy's head
homeward, and the old horse would jog
along, making the right turns in the
road, steering out for teams and ar
irving home just as safely a. if it had
a driver. Lewiston Journal.

Artificial Ice.

Artificial Ice. :
The scientific fact Oh which the max
ing of artificial ice depends is that when
a liquid evaporates it uses up a great
deal of heat, which it draws from any
thing that happens to be around it. II
a can of water is at hand its tempera-
ture is reduced, and if the action goes
far enough the water will be frozen.
This cooling action can be felt by pour
ing a little ether or alcohol upon the
hand. The liquid evaporates rapidly,
and the loss of the heat which it takes
up cools the hand very perceptibly. II
a bottle containing water is kept wet
on the outside with ether, the evapora-
ton will chill the water and eventually
freeze it.
This is essentially the process by
which the carafcs frappees of French
restaurants are produced. The ocean
tiers filed with fresh water are set in
shallow tanks containing brine, which
remains liquid balow the temperature
at which fresh water freezes. In con
tact with these tanks are receivers,
which can be kept charged with newly
formed ether vapor. The chilling va.
por cools the brine, and this in turn
takes heat from the water in the de.
canters, which soon freezes.
In making ice on the large scale
either ammonia or sulphurous oxide is
used instead of ether, because these
substances are cheaper and are not in
fammable. F. A. Fernald in Popula,
Science Monthly.

Speaking of parrots, Mr.. Il. A. Hous.
ton tells a story how a tame parrot OF
his routed II hawk. The parrot was
hopping about in the yard, when the
hawk, probably installing it for a new
breed of chicken, pounced down upon
it. Polly gave a sQuawk that rather
startled the bird of prey, and then
turned on the fierce intruder with such
vigor, beak and talon that the stronger
bird was driven from the field in great
shape. The parrot is no meek barn.

TIE OLD BOAT.

A worn out boat upon the shore,
The chiilren's playground is 1t new,
The troubled deep it tempts no more,
titles at rest like rusty pillow.
And yc' il basks in bright noon:ide,
1t echoes gladly childish %voiccs;
A sailors wife leans here, and wide
Her outlook till her heart rejOices.
Here lovers meet when dusk draws near.
Their voyages have scarce begun;
All! may they keep vows true and dear.
Until their resting days are won.
For Tis not every craft that lies
So calmly on q kindly shore;
And tits not every heart is wise
To cherish love when youth is DER.

been tried by the mayor Of Lenoir fol
violation of a town ordinance and had
pleaded guilty. The mayor fined him
than he wanted to pay, and he
appealed, and in the superior court the

the conclusion that it was some mis-
chievous boys trick to catch an unsus

near it for several minutes, hoping tc
share in the enjoyment Of the joke.
Several persons saw it, but passed by
without paying any attention to it.
At length one mar came along, saw
it and stopped to pick it up, but re
Numbering himself suddenly, gave the
pocketbook a kick which sent it flying
into the gutter. Then it was, though
I can't say why, that was seized witt
a great desire to pick up the old waller
and open it, even if l should be the
victim Of the joke; So, walking up tt
where it lay, l picked it up and put i
