ritius, Doing Great Damage.
LONDON, May 20.-Adyices from
Mauritius state that hurricane of
great violence passed over the is-
land April 10Th, causing enormous
damage to shipping and on the
land. The western half of Port
Louis, the capital, was devastated
houses blown down, trees uprooted,
and the loss of life appalling. The
roar Of the gale was 'deafening, and
people rushed to and fro in panic
stricken confusion. Rain fell in tor.
rents, thunder crashed, and the
flashes Of lightning were binding
The exact number of the dead is not
known. The authorities are maxi
ing every effort to alleviate the suf-
feripg, and military tents are beirg
distributed among the homeless, as
is fond. Half of the crops Of sugar,
rice, coffee, and pepper, is utterly
ruined, and the loss is very heavy.
Although Maritius is noted for vio-
lent and destructive hurricanes, this
one exceeds any hitherto known.

of youth have left.
He has an ignoble soul who is unwill-

One man finds history an epic river of

A little depression is more favorable
to improvement than much complacency.
Better pass through life dropping with
self-distrust than trip along elated with

our ignorant error and wilful desire with
what should be kept clean and free for
the truth.
Disagreeable duties are better done
with quick resolve by generous impulse

one has to take an emetic it is great
economy to swallow it at one heroic gulp

Rectitude is the regulation of personal

A Cure for Biting the Nails.

Do you bite your nails2 Now I'm sure
good many of you do, and still you
would love to know a cure for it; and in
time it will ruin your pretty fingers and
you will have square nails instead of
tilbert-shaped ones. Here is a good
thing to try, and very likely it will stop
the ugly habit. You have seen mother
put bitter aloes on the baby's little pink
thumb to make him stop putting it into
his mouth, haven't you9 Well, that's
the very thing you must do and when
you go to bite those nails of yours the
bitter taste will soon remind you of your
bad habit, and if you are III earnest of
course you will stop. But here is a
better mixture than aIoes. Make thick
paste of gum arabic, mixing in liberal
supply of powdered quinine. If you
paint your finger tips with this you will
soon be cured and have long, respect
able-looking nails before school opens
again.-New York Advertiser.

CUTTING OFF THE BLOOMS.

The old fancy that cutting off the
blooms of potatoes will increase tie
weight and quality of the tubers seems
to have broken out afresh, but careful
experiments made in England and Swift
zerland dispro7e this. The theory was
given to the world by German ex-
perimenter, who published the results of
series of experiments which showed
that considerable gain il the weight
and quality of the tubers resulted in
cutting off the blooms.
An account of series Of experiments
made, by an intelligent Englishman see
to be so thorough that il is worth while
to give his results. His experiments ex-
tended over period of three seasons,
with but one variety, Paterson's Vic
toria potaso, profuse bloomer, and at
that time in general cultivation in Eng
land. In no single year was there any
difference in the quality and weight of
the potato, and the average results
showed that there was no gain derivable
from this operation.
Thorough experiments were made in
Switzerland to test the truth of this
theory. The many varieties of potatoes
grown in that country were subjected to
the experiment. The test was carried
through several seasons in order to make
the result more accurate At the close
of the experiments the conclusion
reached did not corroborate the theory
advanced by the German experimenter
The Englishman, after reviewing the
experiments made in Switzerland and
those by himself, draws this conclusion:
"This system, therefore, is of no use to
us while we have our present varieties of
potatoes, no matter what it may be else
where, and if properly tested it will in
all probabilities be found to be of little
value anywhere. "-American Farmer.

he did not know her address, nor even
her family name. Still she would be
sure to visit the little park, and he
would haunt it until she came. The
haunting would give additional point to
his story of consuming love. Anyhow,
| nothing could be done that night.
In the morning he was overjoved to
receive a letter from Yevette, and he
was more than pleased when he read its
contents. It asked for one more meet

McLane was overjoyed at his good
luck. He felt that he hardly merited
1t. He was early at the spot and sal
down on the last bench of the row fac
ing the fountain. Yevette had not yet
arrived, but it was still half an hour be-
fore the time. McLane read the morn

all around him chimed the hour of -.
She did not come. This was unusual,
but always possible. She might not have
succeeded in getting away. The quarter
and then the half hour passed before
McLane began to suspect that he had
been made the victim of practical joke.
He dismissed the thought. Such thing
was so unlike her. He walked around
the little park, hoping he had mistaken
the row of benches. she was not there.
He read the letter again. 1t was plain
enough-the sixth bench. He counted the
benches, beginning at the church. One
wo-three-four-fve. There were only
five benches in the row.
AS he glazed stupidity at the fifth
bench man beside him said:
'That is the bench, sir"
"What do you mean2" cried McLane,
turning toward him, astonished at the
remark.
''It was there that the young girl was
found dead this morning--poisoned they
say"
McLane stared at him-and then he
said huskily:
"Who-who was sheF
'tNobody knows that-yet. We will
soon know, for everybody, as you see, IS
going into the morgue. She's the only
one on the bench to-day. Better go be-
fore the crowd gets greater. I have been
twice."
McLane sank on the seat and drew
MS hand across his forehead.
He knew she was waiting for him on

SOWING Rye.

Rye is crop easily raised and is SUBJ
Ject to fewer casualties than wheat and
grows freely on soils tina. will not
produce remuneratiVe crops of other
grains. 1t may often be protitably sown
in the fall on light soils as a kind OF
supplementary crop which may be used
for winter pasture when the ground is
frozen, and also be cut for soIling in
early spring, when the green stubble
can be turned under as a fertilizer for Il
coming crop. On ground we'll adapted
to the culture of the sweet potato rye is
an excellent crop to precede it, and,
whether pastured or cut for soiling, the
remains of the rye when plowed under
will be of considerable benefit to the
root crop. Then, if equal care is taken
to turn under the sweet potato vines
after the harvesting, successive crops
may be raised with but little fertilizing
material other than what is furnished by
the rye and the potato vines. The
latter contain much fertiliZing matter,
which, if all saved, will go good ways
toward making up for what is carried off
in the tubers. The trouble in such cases
often is that the rye is so promising in
its appearance in the spring that the in
ducement to keep it few weeks longer
for the grain and straw is too strong to
permit of its being plowed under for
green manure. While the amount of
fertility derived from the green rye
would not be large, the cost of the seed
would be small, and the seeding would
be done at time when farm work. is
not pressing. 1t would therefore seem
that such use of land at season when
it would otherwise be unemployed might
often be advisable. New York World.

GALLOWAY AND ANGUS CATTLE.

There is considerable difference be-
tween Galloway and Angus cattle,
although both are black and hornless.
The former belong to the west coast OF
Scotland, the latter TO the east coast and
the neighborhood of the city of Aber-
deem, whence they are called sometimes
Aberdeen or Aberdeen Angus cattle.
These are finer in form and hair than
the Galloways, which have long, silky
hair and a stouter build. Both are good

mixers and give exceedingly rich milk.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Plant deep in dry weather; shallow in
wet.
Ascertain the merits and dement's of
cow before buying her.
Drive d horse with a rein that both
you and the horse can feel.
If you want your berry bushes to te
productive keep them cut back.
There is generally lime enough in the
soil, but its presence is indispensable.
There are few breeds but what will
for.
Buckwheat hulls produce piles in pigs.
Therefore, it is not very we'll to use them
as food for the pigs.
1t is thought that pigs grown from old
dams exhibit greater vitality than others,
and are less liable to disease.
Set the first laying of both turkey and
duck eggs under hens; more eggs aud
better fowls will be secured.
The cholera symptoms in poultry in
nutshell are: Intense thirst, debility,
prostration, greenish droppings.
Young chickens will eat wheat or
sorghum seed when two weeks old and
they will be better than soft feeds.
In very hot weather see that the chick
ems have some chance to get into the
shade. Too hot sun is not good.
A wide wagon tire is road maker,
not rut cutter. One secret of the good
roads of France is the wide tires ia use
there.
Lice always attack the poorly kept, i'll
fed chickens first. Coal oil is said 10 be
destructive to them, bu. must be used
with caution.
Having a system will save time; have
time for feeding the fowls, for gather
ing the eggs, for cleaning out the poul-
try house aud for cleaning the roo'ts.
While liberal feeding is necessary to
secure a good growth, poultry should
never be so we'll fed that they will not
willingly forage for something to eat.
An old gobbler or pea fowl will often
get very troublesome in fighting the
other poultry; when this is the case the
quicker they are got rid of the better.
The cost of feeding thoroughbred
flock is no greater than for scrubs, while
such birds give their owner far more
pleasure and he can occasionally sell
fowls or eggs at a good price.
The farmer who raises hogs the flesh
of which is fine will be able to get more
than the ma ket price if he once secures
a reputation for SUCH. The big, coarse,
and over-fat pork will not bring much
money, for the simple reason that it does
not sell very good when placed on the
market.
All farmers do not use coal. but those
who do can make good use Of the ashes.
1t is we'll known that excellent walks can
be made of them; but they are valuable
for another purpose. The hogs will be
benefited greatly if tEs ashes are fed to
them. They correct the acidity of the
pigs stomach, snd do vast amount Of
good.
The T}erkshires are one of the oldest
breeds in existence, and one OF their
drawing cards IS a disposition to take on
from the stact a great amount OF flesh
and fat. Another point in their favor is
the Immunity which they nave from dis
ease. This Is not saying that they are
disease proof, but on account Of their
strong constitutions they are more able,
to keep disease at bay. !
