THE QUEENS ORDER.
She Forbade the Slaughter OF Lambs In
Her Kingdom.

She Forbade the Slaughter OF Lambs In
Her Kingdom.
This story, though laughable, is very
creditable to the queens goodness of
heart. But it does not say much of
her knowledge of farming, which she,
nevertheless, carries on successfully on
her estates.
A succession of wet seasons, accom-
panied by a formidable outbreak Of
disease, had caused great havoc among
the focks of Great Britain, and the
papers were full of rebodings of a
serious falling off in the number of
sheep in the kingdom.
Upon this, to the bewilderment of
everybody, the queen issued an order
that the eating of lamb was forbidden
throughout the royal establishment is,
with view to discouraging the prac-
tice generally, until the focks of the
kingdom should have reached their
former numbers.
The panic among the farmers can be
imagined. Every paper was crowded
with their complaints, showing that
the sale of lambs was the most profit
able part of their business, and that
if they could not sell them they would
have to cut their throats in any case,
because there was not pasture enough
as it was for the sheep they had; in
short, it was made abuudantly clear
that the eating of lamb had nothing to
do with the diminution of the focks,
and that what the queen meant for a
kindness vas really the most ruinous
injury she could infict on the farmers.
The royal edict was instantly re-
scinded, but it was long time before
the ridicule it caused died away. For
this act the queen was indebted to the
advice OF lady at court. Yankee

society are the following: TO secure a
clear understanding of the position and
rights in literary property. To furnish
information to authors as to copyright
laws, methods of publishing and forms
of contract. TO assist authors in gain
ing accurate information as to the true
value of their productions, and, when
necessary, to secure that value. To en-

kinds OF animals for experimental uses,
saw the chemist quell with glance n

ferocity had been muzzled and chained.
Pasteur had the brute brought before
him, and looking the animal straight
in the eye, fearlessly took off his muz-

upon Pasteur, licked his hand, and
finally lay submissively before him.

MOTHS" retorted Bess. 'I'll pack
them into a bag, and Oh! Charley,
what is this?"
A piece of the old gray goose's epi-
dermis had come off with the first
handful of feathers. Underneath it
was something like dull-green paper
packed in layers.
"Hello!" said Charley. ''Why-
they're bills! They're money! Look
here! Am dreaming?"
1t was true. The old gray goose was
stuffed full of new, crisp greenbacks.

Nothing was hidden there. Appar-

savings bank idea to the old gray
goose.

New England is in proportion to it's
population the richest part of the
United States. From Maine to Con-
necticut the country is dotted with saw
ings banks, and the bulk of the vast
insurance wealth of the union is owned
there. Tom Reed tells story of a
Nebraska farmer who, travelling
through Maine, happened to stop at a
little house hanging from the side of a
rocky hill, which constituted the farm.
During his stay he made many cutting
criticisms upon.the character of the soil
and asked the farmer why he did no t go
west where the land was so rich that
you could thrust your arm into it up to
your shoulders and pull from the bot
tom dirt as rich as guano.

"and where might such lands be?"

reply, (which is in Blank township,

And climbed the Jungfrau's side;
Had journeyed from the Golden Gate
To storied eastern lands,
And pitched his tent where Africs streams
Roll down their golden sands;'
Had glided through the Grand Canal
Meath soft Venetian skies,
And in strange northern lands had see,
The sun at midnight rise
Through many cities grand and great,
In wonder he had trod,
And on historic battle-felds,
His feet had pressed the sod
He roamed through galleries of art,
And palaces of kings,
And filled his memory with store

And then he came to that small vale,
Content no more to roam,
