The farmers Of this section are almost
done picking cotton, and as a general
thing have sold most of their crop. They
have brought it from far and wide to this

the highest prices.

habits OF the Bird-Spring Shooting.
COPYRIGHTED.

With the melting of the winter SHOWS
the latter part Of this month commences
the spring migration northward OF the
English or jack snipe, as he is some
times called No migratory bird moves
more leisurely, nor by shorter stages OF
fight en- route to its breeding grounds
In the far north. That these are located
in very high ATTITUDES we have the tes-
timony Of Dr. |. |. Hayes, the Arctic eX-
plorer, who, in August-on the occasion
of his furthermoSt journey towards the
pole. in latitude about eighty-two de-
gresS, at a spring hole surrounded by
swamp covered with green moss-saw a
large number of these birds, whose
feeding places had not been far distant.
Though it delights in moist ground, 1t
displays at times a curious prediction
for bushy spots and the outskirts OF
woods. Its favorite hauntS, however,
are on marshes where cattle are past
ured, or in the interior about fresh
water springs environed by a consider
able area Of swamp. II, however, may
more surely be found on pastured
marshes. where its favorite feeding
spots are in the soft oozy tracks made
by the wandering herds. A marsh
which has been abandoned by the cattle
will in single season lose its attractions
for the snipe; but as soon as ii is reoc-
cupied for pasturage that bird Will
promptly reappear.
The plumage Of our English snipe is
darker than that Of the European sort,
the entire upper parts being OF very
deep brown incining TO black, each
feather tipped with light reddish brown
and dirty gray. The neck is of red
dish color. and the under parts are gray
barred with very dark brown or black.
The wings and tail are also brownish
black, the latter tipped with reddish
bar. has one or two light covered feath-
ers on each side. In point of size our
bird differs from It's European cOngener.
The latter measures thirteen inches in
length. while the former attainS only TO
ten and one-half inches. The nest of
our variety is rude and simple, and is
made on the ground without the slightest
attempt at concealment. 1t generally
contains four pale Olive-colored eggs,
rather heightened in form and spotted
with brown more thickly at the obtuse
end. They breed only once year, and
generally on very high ATTITUDES. Al
though their nests have been seen on
the more northern portion of Canada

her posy for the blossom given the young

sign il is understood that the young
woman considers the young man her
friend and admirer and hopes that her

BOUND TO STICK.
MIR. Bow, err Probably Knew Better, but
wouldn't Give In.

A neighbour of ours built a barn and
finished it with a cupola. we were
leaking at it one evening, writes Mrs.
Bowser in the Detroit Free Press, when
Mr.. Bowser observed:
II don't think that cupalo is such
great ornament after ALL"
you mean cupola, my dear"
That's exactly what he meant, and he
got tangled a bit, but having once pro-
nounced the word he was bound TO
stick. He therefore replied:
II think | am old enough to know
what | mean. When | say cupalo |
mean cupalo, and not the ridge pole near
the alley door"
"And you insist it is cupalo?"
There is no insisting about it. 1t Is
simply cupalo. and that is all there is TO
il. If people want to show their igner-
ance by calling it cupolong, or cupaling,
or cupa-something-else, these is no law
to prevent"
Just then the neighbor came out, aid
after few remarks about the weather
he said;
well, Bowser, | saw you looking at
my CHpOld. ultW tHN NNoAc - ~ $500
How do you like it?'
II don't see any," dryly replied Mr..
Bowser.
Whats up there?:''
Its cupalo.'
0-'Where did you come across that
name? Going to run opposition to Web
ster"
tried to get Mr.. Bowser away, know
ing what would be the result, but he re-
fused to bulge an inch, and retorted:
ANY one who hasever been to school
week in his life ought to know what a
cupalo is, and how to pronounce the
word
The word, BowSer, is cupola, the
same as if divided cu-po-la."
Not much! 1t is cu-pa-low."
"You don't mean it,
But | do! l am surprised at your
ignorance"
And l wonder that you do not call a
horse cow"
Oh. well, it is no use wasting time to
argue with a bigot."
"Bigot. Bigot" cried the neighbor.
'Why, you old dunderhead, you don't
even know enough to be bigot.'
| got Mr.. Bowser away and into the
house, and | tried to bring up some
other subject and smooth the matter
over, but he assumed his usual pose and
broke out with
LET this be a great moral lesson to
YOU, Mrs. Bowser! What you don't
know don't pretend to know. Confound
that internal bigot-I wish | had put a
GU pa-low right between his two eyes,
and taken some of the pomposity and
self-concet out of him."

Ones First Dog.
Boston Post.

1t is always amusing to encounter
anybody newly provided with dog, eS-
pecially if 1t be his or her first dog
There is a mixture of pride, of Self-con-
seriousness and Of anxiety in the owner
which is somewhat similar, presume,
TO the emotions ofa woman with baby
and certainly not unlike the futtering
concern of hen with brood of chicks.
II the dog, as often happens, is pup
py, the green owner is apt to feel an
alarm on one point that is quite unnec-
eSSary-grown dogs will not modest
puppy-they respect his tender years and
innocent nature. But this great truth
in natural history is often overlooked.
Only the other day saw in Common
wealth avenue a young lady leading
forth st. Bernard rough-coated pup,
a soft, yielding masSof fluffy brown and
white. To careSS him wonld be a de-
light. to hug him, rapture. The fiereest
bull-terrier would not have harmed
hair of his round, infantile head. But
the young woman whipped out her lash
and stood guard even at the approach
Of an Irish setter.
