TRAPPING CROWS.

Gaicn Wilson Describes His Trap and
Tells Some Good stories.
II is an easy task to prevent crows
deprednting apon the corn field. An
outfit for the purpose is four short
pieces OF board, three eggs and a steel
trap. The boards are nailed together

in the corn field after planting, put one
egg on top, one on the ground in 'front.'
make nest in the back end of the box
as a hen would, and put the third egg
in Il IN such manner as a crow may
see il when he takes the one ON the
ground, then set the trap in the open
ing, which should be SO narrow that a
crow cannot pass without stepping into
the trap. The jaws of the trap should
be wound with rags so it will not break
the birds leg. The trap and chain are
TO be nicely covered with dry grass. 1t
would be just us well TO place the box
against a fence or stump, and put an
egg on top Of this instead Of on the box
Crows are proverbially cunning, but
their appetite for eggs is SO keen that in
this case they seem 10 lose all dis

and all will give that field wide berth
for that season. know this to be
feasible and effectual, for have caught
three in this manner in as many differ
ent seasons.
1t may please boy readers to be told
the story of these three captured crows,
"as black as any crows can be-" tied
the first one to tree on the corn field
with cord knotted around his leg
many times, and then watched him.
He picked at the knot almost contin-
uously, and finally united it and re-
leased himself on the second day. The
next one caught, and after his numer-
Gus friends had made sufficient "circus"

days later, paper printed thirty
miles away reported that crow with
a red rag tied to him had been seen in
that vicinity, and that he created great
commotion among all local crowdom. ]
did not consider my transaction wicked,
for, unlike some human beings, crows
never forsake fellow crow when in
trouble, but all 'lend hand" to re-
licve him, and which they, without
doubt, finally accomplished in this in

In the third case, had gone long
distance to collect note of an Irish
farmer. Calling upon him, he had to
drive three or four hours journey to
borrow the necessary sum, and l re-

me that the crows were pulling their
corn badly. / called for a trap and
three eggs. Taking these to the field,

trap and returned to the house. In an
hour or two there was a great crow
uproar in the corn field. The son
brought the crow to the house and ex-
hibited to the father on his return.
Presently the old gentleman called
daughter into an adjoining room to
count the money, for she could read and
he could not. The door was carelessly

LIGHTING THE GAS.
A Little Carelessness In This Regard MAJ
Cause Serious Results.

Cause Serious Results.
Pure air is much talked about nova
days All sorts of ventilating contriv-
ances are in the market, and the "fresh-
air fiend" is to be encountered evory-
where.
1t is undoubtedly good thing that
public attention has been awakening
on this point because the days of self
yentilating houses ars past, and as
houses are more solidly and thoroughly
built special precautions need to be
adopted in order to protect people from
the resul Its of breathing impure air.
In their efforts, however, 10 secure
good ventilation housekeepers frequent
ly overlook the fact that It may bo
easier and cheaper tn keep some kinds
Of Impurities out Of the house thnn to
get them out after they are once in. II
is very well known, for instance, that
Illuminating gas is made up of a mix
ture Of different gases, ono of them
being exceedingly poisonous in its
nature and giving rise 70 a peculiar
feeling of heaviness and headache II
present in the air in even very minute
quantities.
Should the process Of lighting the gas
in house be watched 1t would be dis
covered that not infrequently the
housemaid or indoor man turns on tho
gas at the different burners Of chan
ielier before lighting any of them.
Now, in an incredibly short space of
time considerable quantity of un-
burned gas makes its way into the
room, and it vitiates the air in manner
ami measure which can be thoroughly
appreciated only by those who know
how easily and quickly air may lose its
life-giving strength
Ignorance and carelessness are not
always confined TO servants; and it is
well to explain TO the different members
Of the household the reason why the
gas sh ould be lighted as soon as It is
turned on, and not allowed to escape
even for second. Health in the home
means constant vigilance; but this is
surely one of the details which it Is as
easy to have rightly as wrongly done

Its Vigorous Growth sinoe the Days o

Its Vigorous Growth slnoe the Days Of
the Fox Family.
What IL known as modern Spiritualsm
began with demonstrations" In the
Fox family In Hydesvillo n T., in
March, ls4s, The same phenomena had
been common In Shaker communities
before that date, and, indeed, IN almost
all ages and among many different peo-
pies, but II was then that these demon
strations generally In the form Of rap
pings, began " be interpreted as com
munications from the disembodied
spirits OF mon aud women who had, In
tho ordinary course of nature, passed
away. but whose spirits were still In a
living aud active stata From this
time individuals began 10 investigate
these spirit manifestations, circles be-
gan 20 be formed, mediums were dis
covered, lecturers recognized, and a
literature established.
Spiritualists claim that the miracles
Of Christ are explained by the central
doctrine OF their belief. and they regard
the demonstrations of Spiritualism aa
establishing by evidence the fact Of Il
future life They do not hold that God
IS personal being, but that he exists
in all things. Eternal progression is
the law Of the spirit world, and every
individual win attain supreme wisdom
and unalloyed happiness.
A few spiritual societies employ per-
manent speakers, but usually they up
point lecturers for limited terms, vary
L.. l. a. h9
large proportion of the lecturers are
mediums who are believed TO speak
under the influence or direction of the
spirit who guides or controls them.
They follow the seriptural injunction;
"Take no thought how or what ye shall
speak, for 1t shall be given you in that
same hour what ye shall speak" When
a lecturer appears before an audience,
therefore, he asks that a subject be
given him, and when he receives it
begins TO speak upon it without hesita-
tion. Summergatherings, orcamp meet
ings, VIII ich continue from one to ten
weeks, have become prominent among
the spiritualists. In 1890 twenty-five
such meetings were held.
The spiritualists report S34 organiza-
tons, with thirty regular church
ediaces, not including halls. pavilions,
and other places owned or occupied by
them There are As, 03o members, and
the value of the property reported,
which includes camp grounds as well
us church editices, pavilions, etc, is
$685. Not many of the halls are
owned by them. There are members In
thirty-six states, besides the District of
Columbia and the territories Of okla
homa and Utah. Among the states
Massachusetts has the greater number,
T,si5; New York stands second with
6,S5l and Pennsylvania third with 4, ,569.
Tho five spirltualiStic societies Of Mis-
souri, have s53 members. Illinois has
1,3l4 members. 1t is rather notable that
the spiritualists arc stronger In New
England than in any other part OF the
country. Iowa is their best western
state. There they have membership

Soda water is only useful so far as it
is water, for as a matter Of fact, water
is the only fluid which will relieve
thirst. The flavoring syrups and gases
with which soda water is usually inn
pregnatcd, only increase thirst. For
this. reason, when person drinks one
glass Of soda water, he soon wants an
other. For those Of you who are so un-
fortunate as to consider plain water in
sipid, add to it little lemon juice or
lime juice or the juice of some other
fruit The luscious fruits which the
summer lavishes upon us are intended
to assist in assuaging thirst, and the ia
vorings which are produced in natures
