Willow Legs.

The demand for willow wood for arti-
fetal legs has grown immensely in re-
cent years. The funny men on the
stage talk ylibly of cork legs, but light
willow limbs are more popular, says the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat English
makers claim that the best willow in
the world is to be found along the
banks of small streams in the southern
: juntries, and there seems some ground
fJr their contention, although an i'm
raonse quantity of good willow wood is
cat every year in this country. Statis-
ticians say that over one million Eng
disappearing men wear or walk on
wooden legs, and this accounts for the
enormous trade in limbs of this kind. The
old-fashioned stump with an iron tip on
l. is seldom seen now. It was great
success in it's day, and with reasonable
care and luck lasted close on q lifetime;
blt it was too awkward and conspicu-
uus, not to say noisy, to be popular.
The modern wooden leg is more costly,
bat it is much more comfortable, and
many IL man who is compelled to walk
with the aid of one can give pointers in
experiment and grace to others more
blessed by fortune.

POOR eR'ER BEAR.

LudlcrouS Results OF His First Meeting
with = Mackerel CAsk.
A party of hunters on the Florida
coast came suddenly upon bear prowl-
ing about beach and gravely inspect
ing such articles as we've brought up by
the waves, which were richer than usual
in plumber from tie fact that there had
recently been a severe storm. The all
thor of "Wild Sports in the South" thus
describes bruins treatment of such
wreckage:
He would first look at an article, then
smell it, touch it with his paw, and
finally, after deliberately seating him
self with his hind legs projecting in
front, turn his head on one side and try
to crack his new acquisition with his
teeth. The burlesque gravity of his
manner was indescribahle.
He threw away a cocoanut as being
too hard to chew, ate an orange with
great satisfaction, and presently dls-
covered a small caslS, which he en-
teavored to open. BY dint of much
biting he enlarged the bunghole so that
he could insert paw, then he held the
cask on one arm and kept the other
paw busy in rapid Journeys thence to
his mouth.
But this method of getting at the con-
tents did not satisfy him, and presently.
standing erect on his, hind feet, he in
serted his nose in the barrel and then
his head, Now, bears nose is so sharp
that it goes through small place very
easily, but owing to the heavy folds of
skin about the neck, and the fact that
the hair and ears are set backward, it
does not possess the same facility for
coming out.
Bruin was fast, He began to pull
back, but as he pulled the barrel came
with him, and as he rolled ON his back,
paving Intellectually at it's convex sides,
it merely revolved about his head rs if
it were on a pivot. Then, alarmed by
the sound of our laughter, he took
fright and ran, wearing the casl1 on his
head like n helmet.
Up the hill he rushed, lost all sense
of direction and rolled head over heels
among us. Picking himself up, he reared
and began growing and waving his
paws, but was speedily released by one
Ct the negroes, who broke the barrel by
blow from his club and scattered the
rnaclzerel with which it had been filled.
The bear rewarded him for this serv-
lie with blow of the paw which laid
him on the sands, and in another sec
ond was himself stretched there by the
discharge of two rifles.

Circumstantial Evidence,

In reading the charge of Recorder
Smyth to the jury in the Harris case in
your paper, says a correspondent of the
New York World, / was much struck by
that quotation from Greenleaf on Evil
dence in which circumstantial evidence
is described as follows: ''If you see
human footprints in the snow, that is
evidence that a human being has passed
that way" wish to quote an incident
that came under my personal observation
in Norway the last summer, which per-
haps will show how dangerous circum-
s~tantial evidence according to Greenleaf
can be.
Three Laplanders were accused, 10
victed aud sentenced for robbery, and
the main evidence at the trial was foot.
prints in the snow leading to the huts of
the three convicted Laplanders. After
convection it turned out by the confes-
sion of one that the other footprints
which had caused the conviction of the
two additional Laplanders were made by
reindeer, the Laplander having taken
two pairs of moccasins and put them on
the feet of the reindeer, with the heels
towards the head, he changing his own
in the same way, so what really appeared
on circumstantial evidence as three men
walking in one direction turned out TO
be one man leading a reindeer that he
had stolen in an opposite direction.
Perhaps Greenleaf had better take a more
infallible illustration for circumstantis
evidence.

FRIED NUsH.

Ten years ago, writes Octave Thanet,
fried mush was QUE of the specialties on
the Mississippi River steamboats,. And
this rs far as l can judge from the eye
and the palate, and the conversation of
our river cook who became a butler
afterward and later a priest and was
probably one of the most trustful colored
men that ever lived in this c~ountry-this
is the Mississippi way to fry mush: Make
a mush of fine white meal. Pour it into
square rectangular pans to the depth of
one or two inches. Cut it into small
squares. Fry these squares in deep fat
lard is best-just as you would fry
doughnuts. That is all there is to it.
The crust is crisp and golden brown, the
interior is snowy white. Eaten with
maple sirup there are few more satisfy
ing breakfast cakes.
All cornmeal breads take kindly to
butter. It is best to grease the pans al
ways with butter, ,snd cornmeal grlddle.
cakes, unlike white flour griddle cakes,
are best fried on a griddle creased mainly
with butter instead of with lard. I sup
pose the reason is that cornmeal does not
brown nearly SC readily as -four. One
must always consider this fact. Chicago

Testing a Government Clerk.

"Farmer" Edmunds is an lndefatigable
worker in behalf Of his onstituents.
Last Saturday he called upon Secretary
Rusk, of the Agricultural Department,
and asked as a special favor that the Sec
rotary make an appointment for him.
Mr.. Edmunds had "a worthy constituent
whom he vas DESTROYS of placing in the
Government service. Secretary Rusk
said, Gan right" that he would find a
place for a constituent, particularly if he
were as good looking as "Farmer" Ed
munds himself. The farmer telegraphed
TO Halifax County, requesting Mr.. James
Warrington to HE himself to the National
Capital without loss of time. Mr.. Wat
llngton arrived in due time, and this
morning Mr.. Edmunds accompanied MIN
to the Agricultural Department. Ad-
mitted to the Secretary's presence, Mr..
Edmunds said "Mr. Secretary, per-
NIT me to introduce Mr.. James Waiting
ton, the constituent of mine for whom I
asked a place. He is capable and hon
est, and you may see for yourself that he
is good looking"
Secretary Rusk scanned Mr.. Waiting
ton from head to foot, and addressing
him as if very serious, said Young man
if 1 should tell you to catch a mule by
the ears and pull his hide off, would you
do it2"
The Joung Virginian, just as seri-
ously "WelI, Mr.. Secretary, l can't
nromise that 7 would null his hide off.
but either the ears would give way or
something else would snap"
"YoulI do, laughed the Secretary,
and tinkling his little bell he directed
the messenger who reported TO show Mr..
Warrington to the chief clerk, with
orders to put him on the roll at once.
"That young man will make his way"
remarked the Secretary to Farmer Ed
munds.-Richmond (Va.) Times.

GRASS FOR A PERMANENT PASTURE.

The one best grass tor a pasture Is or
chard grass, as it remains in the soil
many years, and makes an early and late
growth. The seed may be sown in the
spring at the rate of two and a half
bushel to the acre, and it is desirable to
sow common red clover with it, as the
clover affords plenty of feeding while
the grass is spreading over the ground.
But it is vain to expect really good
pasture OF any grass unless the land has
been well prepared by thorough blowing
and manuring. In general it is best to
mix two or more kinds of grass, and to
choose some kinds that will make a later
growth that will furnish feeding while
the others are renewing the heritage.
Thus it is desirable to add to the or
chard grass six pounds each of timothy,
tall oat grass, and meadow fescue. All
these kinds may be procured of seeds
men. Alfalfa is not a grass, and is a
plant of the clover family and resembles
clover in many respects, except that on
suitable land and in the right climate it
remains in the ground many years. But
where clover will succeed alfalfa IS a poor
substitute for it, as it requires hot dry
climate to grow to perfection. It is a ma
tive of countries where it is necessary to
irrlgate the crop.-New York Times.
