A Pig Tale.

This story was recently told in Golden
Days; Among certain litter of New Jer.
sey pigs there was one black runt to which
the owners children took a great fancy
and taught number of tricks One was
to hide an apple and send the pig in search
Of it. At this the animal became very ex-
pert, until it seemed that an apple could
not be hidden anywhere that the pig could
not find it. But the hired man thought
otherwise; so one day he tied IL weight TO
an apple and threw it into the duck pond,
where the water was about two feet deep.
The pig went nosing around until he
reached the pond, hesitated moment, then
jumped in, dived to the bottom and re-
appeared with the apple in his mouth.
The very next day, while the children were
in great glee over this performances, the
pig disappeared, presumably stolen by
some jealous neighbor.
Two years later, while the farmer was in
town on business, he purchased n black
hog that pleased him and brought it home.
The hog was driven into the yard, where he
stopped, looked critically around the prem
ises and then, with n grunt OF satisfaction,
trotted to one corner of the yard, where he
rooted for a few seconds. Then he trotted
to the duck pond and dived beneath the
water. When he reappeared and swan
ashore he looked disappointed; but the
farmer and his family were delighted, be-
cause they had recovered their pet.

One morning lately friend took me 30
see German gentleman who has Travelled
several times across Africa, Just in the same
way rs Mr. Stanley went on his exploring
tours, except that he had only very few
men with him. His name is Dr. Peters, and
you bigger ones who are fond of reading
books about African travel may have seen
his name.
At first we talked for a long time OF
things which don't think would interest
you, but then DR.. Peters went on to tell us
of how he used to watch Emin Pasha pre-
pare African birds for museums. Emin
did it rs an amusement in his leisure time,
and he did it wonderfully neatly and care
fully. Sometimes the corpses OF the little
dead birds, with their gay plumage, would
be hung all about his tent, and then he
would write down all he had found out
about them. believe the other day, at a
meeting of n German ornitholOgical society
(the big word means esncerning the na6a-
raj history of birdsl it was stated that DIR.
Emin had just sent 800 birds, represent
ing 1856 different species, to Germany He
had caught and prepared them all in three
months time, while on a tour from the
African coast to Tsbora, which place YOU
should look up on your map. Wouldn't
it be delightful to roam about OH such an
expedition for few months?

FOR THE TABLE.
Floral Decoration That Lends Poetry and
Grace TO the Setting of u Feast.

Floral Decoration That Lends Poetry and
Grace to the Setting of Feast.
The fashion Of table decoration grows
every day more varied The tasteful fancy
OF one hostess Is to adorn her feasts with
garlands Of flowers, knutted with ribbons
of delicate color. Sometimes festoons Of
violets hang about the silver canhlesticks
sometimes the dishes are wrcathed with
roses, or sprays of white lilac blossoms are
strewn amid the wax candles. Always
satin ribbons Of pale tiuts bind the clusters
of blossoms.
Another giver Of dinner parties and a
collector Of porcelains rs well brings out
her dainty cupids, shepherdesses and court
ladies and flings flowers ut their feet--here
two carnations, there n moss or blush rose,
n spray Of lilac, an orchid. The table Is a
poetic confusion Of porcelain figures and
flowers. At the ends and in the center
stand magnificent vases, filled with exotic
blooms.
The latest Partisan fashion is to sur.
round the fruit dishes with thick wreaths
of roses or violets; traceries Of flowers are
scattered over the tabecloth. Heraldic de.
vices, coats of arms, ships, baskets, wagons
wrought in flowers, are also seen at fash.
ionable dinner tables The menus, sur.
rounded with ribbons, are pinned on sprays
of flowers. This abundant use of blossoms
gives an Incompatible poetry and grace tc
the setting of the feast. Wax candles are
the most refined and soft illuminants; but
at some houses lamps arc placed on thC
table amid flowers

The Asparagus Bea.

A correspondent in The Farm Jour
nal says: While the cutting and market
ing of asparagus continues every shoot,
no matter how small, should be cut off.
For the good Of the succeeding crop, cut.
ting should not be continued very late
in tho season. Time must be given to
secure vigorous growth of top before
the growing season ceases, for on this
depends largely the earliness and vigor
Of the succeeding crop.
The clean cutting destroys millions oi
eggs, and lessons the numbers Of the sec
ond and third broods Of asparagus beetles
quite materially. II the small shoots he
permitted to grow during this early
season, they afford breeding ground for
the beetles, and when the cutting ceases
they are so numerous as to devour the
crop as it grows up, giving the patch the
appearance Of having been burnt over by
fire. In regard TO disposing of the old
tops the practices of successful growers
differ. Some run the mower along the
row in the fall, gather up and burn;
others do this early in the spring, think
ing that they afford valuable protection
to the roets during the winter season.

Dressing Pasture. with Lime.


An English agricultural exchange tells
very truly how there occurs a gradual
elimination of limo in pasture lands,
even in limestone districts. Want of
lime is indicated by coarsenees Of herb
age, sourness and want of clovers The
grass grows rank, and the finer species
are ousted by inferior descriptions. 1t
is not so much q deficiency of quantity
as of quality which is discernible. Marl
is suitable dressing for such land, but
in districts where this substance is not
available burnt lime may be used with
equal If not superior results. The effect
of dressing of 150 to 200 bushels OF
quicklime is seen in an increased growth
of white clover and leguminous herbage,
and in a general improvement of quality
in the grasses.
The authority quoted inclines to the
system of making one large heap of lime
conveniently near the field and applying
it after slaking. The small heap sys-
tenn, which is admirable in the case OF
arabic land, is unsuitable for grass, be-
cause the grass is burnt on the site OF
every heap. This we should avoid by
making a large heap, as recommended.
The best periods are midsummer, after
the fields have been spring and summer
grazed, and before the period of autumn
growth commences; or the work may be
delayed until late in the autumn. After
spreading the surface should be thor
oughly chain narrowed, SO as to brush
in the lime to the roots, and the effect
will show itself in the following summer
and continue for from seven to twelve
yaara ..I.

FIRST STORY.

Porches such rs the one used in connee-
ton with this plan are desirable for south
ern homes particularly, and they are com
ing to be more popular in the north. A
porch is something more than n room out

From the hall and nesr the door which
communicates with the rear part Of the
house is stairway going to the second
floor. It may be objected 70 by some that
il Is necessary for the servant to pass
through the front part OF the house to go
to the second floor. This is true. How
ever, this is not dreadful matter. It will
not hurt the servant if she is careful, or
any one else unless they are unduly sensi-
tive. However, those who are particularly
disturbed by an arrangement of this kind
should get more money together and build
q larger house with two stairweys. Not
having the money we should accept the
dictates OF fate. ..
Not long since made plans for house
In northern city in which the servants
quarters were provided for in very lib.
eral way on tho third floor. However, on
their being hnished, the boys of the family
noticed their liberal character and laid
claim to them. After this it was necessary
to build n small house of two rooms IN the
rear end OF tine lot for the servants. To

He Spelled Il Another Way.

In a certain Sunday school in this city
there is a very bright little boy of about
six years. His sharp and witty replies
have been the frequent cause of merri-
ment to the other members of his class
Last Sunday the teacher explained in
simple language the salvation of the
soul TO the members of the class, ending
with the injunction that at the close of
the lesson she would ask for some one to
repeat what she had said. The lesson
was soon finished, and then the teacher,
addressing little girl, said: .
Mamie, what must you do to save
your soul2"
Mamie was confounded. She hung
her head, abashed, and did not answer.
At this moment the infantile wit raised
his hand.
"Well, Jimmie, what must Mamie do
to save her soulf" queried the teacher.
"Walk on her heel" was the response.

Tho critical Season for Bees.

The spring is the most critical season
Of the year for bees. More colonies of
bees are lost from the LIST of March to
tho 1st of juno than during any other
period OF the year. Starvation and
dwindling and dysentcry, caused from
impure Food, slay their thousands. Be
as sure that your bees have sufficiency
of food as you are that your cattle, horses,
sheep and hogs have something TO eat
and you will come out all right. The
old policy of putting bees in box and
setting II on stand, and virtually say
ing to them, '"Live if you can, and die il
you must is no longer practiced by sen.
sible apiarists, says an Ohio apiarian in
The Farm Journal, who claims that the
preservation of the life Of single healthy
bee in March is worth score of the same
kind in June.

Tiedman, the famous Saxon dentist,
had very valuable tortoise shell cat
that for days did nothing but moan.
Guessing the cause, he looked into his
mouth, and seeing decayed tooth soon
relieved it of its pain. The following
day there were at least ten cats at his
door, the day after twenty, and they
went on increasing at such rate that
he was obliged to keep bulldog to drive
them away. But nothing would help
them.
A cat that had the toothache would
come any number of miles to him. 1t
would come down the chimney even,
and not leave the room until he had
taken its tooth out. 1t grew such nui-
sance at last that he was never free from
one Of these feline patients.
However, being one morning very
nervous, he accidentally broke the jaw
