Ticks In Winter.

One remedy has been recommended
by practical shepherds for the eradica-
tion of ticks in the winter, as follows:
Mix insect powder and yellow snuff in
equal parts. One-half pound of each
will kill the ticks on one hundred sheep.
To make the application requires two
men. The wool is parted from the
back in two or three places we'll down
on each side-the fore shoulder, the
hook and the back of the neck. The
powder can be sprinkled in the open
ing by a large pepper-box or by hand.
In each case it should be we'll rubbed
down to the hide of the sheep. 1t is
said that if the work is properly done it
will prove the death of the ticks.

Famous Boys.

A Swedish boy fell out of a window
and was severely hurt, but with clenched
lips he kept back cry of pain. The
king, Gustavus Adolphus, who saw him
fall, prophesied that that boy would
make a man for an emergency; and so
he did, for he became the famous Gen.
eral Bauer.
A woman fell off the dock in Italy.
She was fat aud frightened. No one of
the crowd of men dared to jump in af-
ter her; but boy struck the water al
most as soon as she, and managed to
keep her up until stronger arms got
hold of her. Everybody said the boy
was very daring, very quick, but also
very reckless, for he might have been
drowned. The boy was Garibaldi, and
if you will read his life you will find
these were just his traits all through
that he was 80 alert that nobody could
tell when he would make an attack
with his red.shirted soldiers; 80 indis-
Greet sometimes as to make his fellow
patriots wish he was in Guinea, but
also so brave and magnanimous that all
the world. except tyrants, liked to hear
the talk about him.
A boy used to crush the flowers to
get their color, and painted the white
side of his fathers cottage in Tyrol
with all sorts of pictures, which the
mountaineers gazed at as wonderful.
He was the great Titan. An old
painter watched a little fellow who
amused himself making drawings of
his pot and brushes, easel and stool, and
said, That boy will beat me one day"
So he did. for he was Michael Angelo.
A German boy was reading blood
and-thunder novel. Right in the midst
of it he said to himself, Now, this will
never do. get too much excited over
it; can't study 30 well after it. So here
goes!" and he flung the book out into
the river. He was Fichte, the great
German philosopher.
There was New England boy who
built himself booth down at the rear of
his fathers farm, in swamp, where
neither the boys nor the COWS would dis
turb him. There he read books like
Locke on "Human Understanding"
wrote compositions, watched the bal
ancing of the clouds, reverted in the
flash and crash of the storm, and tried
to feel the nearness of God who made
all things. His name was Jonathan
Edwards. Sunday school Times.

The Wonderful Naval Cipher.

The naval departments cipher cost
$4,000, and is one of the most intricate
and secure in the world. 1t took the
exper.s at Washington three hours to
decipher dispatch that made about
two stickfuls of plain English, and they
were not quite sure then whether AID
miral Brown, the sender, meant that
the San Francisco was at Iquique and
the Baltimore had come up from Val
paraiso, or that the Baltimore was al
Valparaiso and the San Francisco was
going down there from Iquique. AID
miral Brown fortunately signed his
name in English, so they were dead
sure it was from him. There is a sus.
picion that the plan of the cipher was
plagiarized from Ignatius Donnelly's
Great Cryptogram. "-Chicago Netos

Were collected and inspected,
They would make a wondrous throng.

Oh, the flutter and the fussl

And of all of them, not any
But was once baby small;
While Of children, oh, how many

Some have never laughed nor spoken,
Never used their rosy feet;
Some have even flown to heaven
Ere they knew that earth was sweet;
And indeed, wonder whether,
If we reckon every birth,
And bring such a flock together,
There is room for them on earth
Who will wash their smiling faces?
Who their saucy ears will box?
Who will dress them and caress them?
Who will darn their little socks?
Where are arms enough to hold them?
Hands to pat each shining head1
Who will praise them? Who will scold

Who will pack them off to bed?

Little savage children, too,
In all stages, of all ages
That our planet ever knew
Little princes and princesses,
Little beggars wan and faint;
Some in very handsome dresses,
Naked some, bedaubed with paint.
Only think OF the confusion
Such motley crowd would make
And the clatter of their chatter,
And the things that they would break!

Oh, the flutter and the fuss!

BASE BALL AT oCALA.
The Brooklvns Shut Out the Tam,
Club in a Good Game.

OcALA, FLA, March 9.-The base ball
game to-day, though one-side1, was very in
teresting and was witnessed by 900 people.
The day was just right for ball playing.
The boys were all full of ginger. For a
while it looked as though the Tampa, would
go to the front, as they had three men on
bases In the fifth inning, with no
one out, and every one expected at,Jeast
to see the score tied, but the next man
proved an easy one and Mack was caught
between third aud home in a very foolish
play for an old timer. For Tampa York
and Hill did the hest work, the latter max
ing pretty throw to the plate and cutting
Off run. Brouthers and Carr did the best
batting for the Brooklyns, though Daily's
hit was the most timely. The score will
show the result:
