Useful Booksh elves.

A pretty arrangement for house that
has no library is set of mantel book
shelves. These should be almost as wide
as the shelf, and just long enough to
leave room on each end of the shelf for
one piece of brc-a-brac, The book
shelves should not be too high to reach,
and the top shelf can be re served for
orna ments, classic head Of Dante or
some other poet, jar of roses, and
Jug or vase will complete the picture Of
something better, more inviting and So
ciable than the finest mantel cabinet
ever gildad or ebOniZed.

of the finest in the orchard. selected
with a view to its apple bearing abilities
and its beauty.
In one little village many of the or
chards have trees Of this description, and
the older inhabitants can refresh their
memories as to the number of children
in the families which have occupied
farms at different times. provided the
period of occupancy was long enough to
make the setting up of a family tree
worth while.
On n farm there ia d large old tree
which bears seven different varieties of
apples: Baldwins, Jeremiahs, summer
sweetings, winter pippins, Astrakhans.

Well Disciplined Ducks.

During our stay at Hankow we visited
a duck farm. The process Of keeping
the ducks is very simple. A large
wooden shed stands near the edge Of the
river, where the owner Of the farm Or
an employee spends the night with his
feathered friends. There must have
been several Thousands of ducks in the
farm we visited. Before sunrise the
door of the shed was opened, and out
run the ducks. scrambling n over the
other into the river, where they spend
the day feeding.
AS soon as sunset approaches. from all
parts Of the river they cOnle for they
wander far among the rushes and islands
during the day, and there is still more
hurry and scurry to get into the shed
than there was to get out at dawn. The
reason is simple. Immovable by the
door sits the Chinaman, a long ane II
his hand, and woe betide the last duck
to enter, for down on it's back ON the
long bamboo with a pain infiicting thud.
In this way punctuality is insured among
the ducks.
Children could hardly have learned
their lesson better than the ducks

When the earth was young. says DR..
Ball. astronomer royal for Ireland, il
spun around at such a rate that the day
was only three hours long. The earth
was liquid then. and as it revolved at
that fearful speed the sun caused ever
increasing tides upon its surface until
at last it burst in two. The smaller
part became the MOON. which has been
going around the earth ever since at an
increasing distance. The influence Of
the moon now raises tides on the earth,
and while there was any liquid to
operate on in the moon the earth
heaped up much greater lunar tides

er. The BOWery was the southern ter
mination of the old Boston post road,
and down it came the bulk of the
produce of the countryside which was
eaten in and shipped from New York.
Among other things all the cattle ane
into town on that road on the hoof TO be
sold to the butchers. Henry knew that
and SO did all the other butchers, bat
Henry put his knowledge to practical
use. He drove out Of town twice a
week on market days ana met the cattle
on the road up III the country. There
he bought the best Of ali the steers aud
~cornered the market. It WAS ne who
thereafter set the prices and sold to the
other butchers. His young brother,
John Jacob, was just as instinct with the
speculative spirit. but he had no money
to buy with and SO he used to borrow Of
Henry.
Henry did not like that. Re distrusted
his brothers s~hrewdness, or else he was
close with his money. At any rate he
loaned it to John Jacob unwillinglv, ard
finally he met II request for a loan with
a bluff No" He said he would not be
bothered any more, but this is what he
would do. He would give John Jacob
the sum of 500 outright as a gift If John
Jacob would sign a paper promising
never to ask for the loan Of another
penny from that date forever. John
Jacob jumped at the offer. He took the
$500, and perhaps that had more to do
with the foundation of the great Aston
fortune than any other sum he got in all
his Life.
