THEY EAT oRAssHoPpERs.

Turkeys Grow Fat in Kidding tho Farm
OF the Pests.
There is small reptile out west
known as the fence lizard, which
catches and eats a great many grass
hoppers. The species is very common
in the infested regions.
Skunks are most active enemies OF
the insect and have been known to as
cend trees for the purpose Of catching
them. For obvious reasons it will hard
ly be practicable to encourage these
particular mammals, but no such OBJ
jections would apply to toads, which
are apt to swarm wherever the "hop-
pers" are, gobbling the latter greedily.
Many planters in California employ
hocks of turkeys for the purpose Of
freeing their orchards and vineyards Of
grasshoppers. One turkey will destroy
an almost incredible number in single
day. Incidentally the birds are fat
tened at the cheapest possible rate.
They are so fond Of such food that
sometimes they devour too many and
die Of indigestion.
Common barnyard fowls are likewise
very efficient destroyers Of grasshop-
pers. In one case referred to by spe-
cial agent of the department of agricul-
ture, an almond orchard containing
three hundred and sixty acres was at
tackled by migrating swarms last year.
The house and barn were situated In
the middle of the orchard, and the
chickens browsed around them over an
area of six or eight acres, which, by
August, looked like a green oasis in
the desert, the trees everywhere else
having been stripped of their leaves
by the voracious insects.

AN IRISH CUP OF TEA.

& Must BE Overlooking Into the Saucer,
Coming in tired from a long walk, I
went to my room to lie down, and on
my way left message for Mary: ''Tell
Mary to make me cup of tea-strong
and bring it up stairs"
In the course of time there appeared
at my door Mary's round smiling face,
surrounded by its curly kinks of hair,
that, in turn, was surmounted by the
green and gold metal butterfly which
was its daily adornment.
cts an Irish cup of tea I'm bringin'
you, ma am" she said
"An Irish cup of tea, Mary And
what is that?"
'It's cup fowin into the saucer,
ma am"
laughed as took the "Irish cup of
tea" 'Wait and take down the cup,
Mary" And Mary stood beamingly
beside me while drank the tea. "so
that's the kind of cup you get at home,
Mary, is it--tne tea running into the
saucer?s
''Oh yes, ma'am," she said. "When
ye give a cup of tea to a friend, ye're not
givin' plenty unless it's fowin' into the
saucer. We'd not be insultin' friend
wild cup that wasn't full. At home
it's name we are if ye don't fill the cup
runnin' over"
1t is the fashion to-day to prefer Ger
man, Swede, or Danish servants to
Irish. The Irish have, indeed, many
faults, and those of us who daily bear
with some of the most obvious of them
are only too apt to be blind to the
actual virtues of these Irish peasant
girls. They have many virtue. The
Irish cup of tea is not bad exponent
of the national character as we see il
displayed in our kitchens. Generous tc
lavishment, careless to sloppiness
quick-tempered, but kind-hearted, and
warm as an Irish cup of tea is warm
and just about as much to be depended
upon if something of more substantial
nature does not go with it.
But an Irish cup of tea is a gooc
greeting to one who is tired or cold,
and as we drain it, we find in the bot
tom of the cup the pretty bit of Irisf
poetry:
"a cup howin' over for friend"

three sprays of lily of the valley. One
white orchid, if this be very small, and
several sprays of lily of the valley are
very effective. Gardenias are much
sought after and have been the favorite
flower in London for wedding bouton-
nieres for a number of years. Six
sprays of lily of the valley also make a
very pretty bouquet.
The best man should wear a larger
bouquet than that worn by the groom,
made of the same kind of flowers as the
maid of honor carries. The ushers
should wear very large, white bouquets
-four carnations is none too large
often as many as six are used. Either
twelve sprays of lily of the valley or six
sprays of Roman hyacinth, arranged
compactly, make pretty bouquet.

be little smaller than the bouquets

SPELLING REFORM.
The Necessity for n Better system OF
Orthography.

The Necessity for n Better system OF
0rthography.
In France the academy was con.
stituted chiefly 60 be guardian of the
lahghagc ahd the academy, properly
conservative as its needs must be; is en-
gagged in Il slow reform of photography,
yielding TO the popular demand deco
rously and judieiously. liy official ac-
tioi, alsd the orthography OF Gefmatt
has been simplifed and made more
logical and brought into closer relation
with modern pronunciation. Even
more thorough reforms have been car
ried through in Italy, in Spain and in
Holland. Yet neither French nor Ger
man, not Italian, Spanish or Dutch,
stood half as much in need of the broom
of reform as English, for in no one of
these languages were there so many dark
corners which needed cleaning out; in
no one of them the difference between
orthography and pronunciation hs
wide, and in no one of them was the ac-
cepted spelling debased by numberless
false etymologies. Sometimes 1t seems
as though our photography is altogether
vile; that it is intollerable and not to
be endured; that it calls not for the
broom of reform, but rather for the be.
som of destruction.
For any elaborate and far-reaching
scheme of spelling reform, seemingly,
the time has not yet come, although,
fer all we know, we may be approach
ing it all unwittingly, as few
of us in 1860 foresaw the emun.
cipation proclamation of 1868. In
the meanwhile, what is needed on
both sides of the Atlantic, In the United
States as well as In Great Britain, is
conviction that the existing orthog.
raphy of English is not high treason.
What is needed is the consciousness
that neither Samuel johnson and Noah
Webster compiled his dictionary under
direct inspiration. What is needed is
an awakening to the fact that our
spelling, so far from being immaculate
at its best, is, ut its best, hardly less
absurd than the hap-hazard rule-of
thumb, funnily phonetic spelling Of
Artemus Ward and of Josh Billing
What is needed is anything which will
break up the lethargy of satisfaction
with the accepted photography, and
help to open the eyes of readers and
writers to the stupidity of the present
and tend to make them discontented
with it.
So the few and slight divergences be-
tween the orthograpby obtaining in
Great Britain and the orthography OBJ
tanning in the United States are not to
be deplored. The cyder on the door of
the London bar-room and the catalog
in the pages of the New York Library
Journal both subserve the useful pur-
pose of making people alive to the pos
sibilities of an amended photography.
Thus the so-called american spelling
helps along a good cause-and so, also,
do the British assaults upon it.-Bran.
der Matthews, in Harper's Magazine.
