FIGHTING THE GYpsy MoTH.-The Mas sachusetts Agricultural Society employs one hundred men in fighting the gypsy moth. Each man has charge of district about a mile square. Whenever moth clusters and rests are found, they are collected by the wagon load andrburned. Paris green in large quantities has been used in spraying the infected trees and grass. The work of extermination has been going on for the last five years, and until this year the results were far from encouraging. The pests had spread over 200 square miles in the northeastern part of the state, causing desolation equal to that by fire or flood, and $275, ,000 had been appropriated by the state legislature for their destruction. The moths are said to have been introduced in this way f M. Trouvellor camo to this country from France about twenty years ago, and, set tling at Medford, studied the cultivation of the silkworm. One day he placed half a dozen eggs on the window ledge of his home. During brief absence the eggs were blown off and scattered through the yard, so that their recovery was impossi- ble. From these eggs were produced the army of moths that have done much to depopulate a large rart of Massachusetts. Professor Lintner has suggested the dis covery and introduction of a parasite that would feed upon and so destroy the moth.

Butler Took tho Case.

s.I had an important law case on, " said Wakefield gentleman the other day. II knew no one could win that case for me but Ben Butler. He was in Washing ton at the time. I went to Washington, and after hard scrabbling for two days got an audience with him. He said he wouldn't take my case for G1 ,0O0 day. He had more work on his hands now than he could attend to, and he went about his work right then.
 General said, I was born in the same town with you.'
 'He grunted, but wasn't otherwise af- fected that could see.

"'And I am the boy who sent them, said the general. He held out his hand. T guess I'll take your case after all, he said and he did and won it."-Boston Globe.

 But Mike was above the sphere of the commonplace, and drawing himself up proudly replied: My name is Norval. On the Grampian hills my father feeds his focks, frugal swain"'

Though you and I have not met for years, Tonight wake in that mist of tears One thought of old had the force to start The thought that never has left my heart. Fer love like mine, deny it who can, Comes once but once, in the life of man, And if he triumphs the skies may fall, And if he loses he loses all.
 wonder if you regret perchance Some word of the past, some circumstance, Has proved the worth of that force unseen And niade you long for what might have been. Or in the future this written word May plead W. tn notes in my voice unheard To make you pause at the broken line And sigh and say, "All his life was mineP' An. then perchance shall hear the grass Pressed softly back as your footsteps pass To bring wl.ere my sghtless eyes may see The tear for my grave, denied to me. Nay, do not come, for think my love Would burst the cerements, the weight above, And my fierce arms strive through turf and
 mold
 For you, with that force you feared of oldl No, no; would not that all the pain
 feel by you should be felt again.

Beauty and Goodness.

There are thoughtless people who say that beauty of soul signifies invariably beauty of body; that the spiritual and in tellectual must of necessity shine through the corporeal vestiturc as Q lamp through transparency.
 Granting that certain dignity and nobility do inhere in the personality, and that education refnes the features and informs the countenance with expres- sion, the admission must be made that beautiful souls are not invariably resi- dent in beautiful bodies. A very plain face, a rough skin, unsightly lineaments, have often been the outward accompa- niments of rarely pure and exquisite be- ings, whose angelhood was compelled to await its wings on the other side of this sphere. -Earper's Bazaar.

Queer Southern Names.

"Most southerners know the negro's propensity for odd names," said Charles Waters at the Lindell, land in my time I have run across some that were most remarkable. For instance, I know an old negro down in middle Tennessee who rejoices in the sobriquet of Niagara Falls, though his companions have shortened this to Nigger Falls, but he was really christened after the great cataract. also know an old colored woman who delights in telling that her name is Vir, ginia Alabama Georgia South, and an other who enjoys the cognomen of Aman da June Day. This last is school teacher and signs her name A. June Day St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

There was no profusion
 Of jewels or lace, No yards of illusion Her figure to grace, But the bride was most simply And tastefully drest, In the style and the color
 That suited her best. And Fred in a whisper-he stood at my side Said, "I never beheld more beautiful bride." hardly need mention
 The fact, presume, But all my attention
 Was fixed on the groom, Whose face so reflected
 The joy of his heart
 That in the sweet service
 My own took a part. And oh, twas ascene we remember with pride For Fred was the bridegroom, and I was thu

N. Y. Ledger: To make an aqurium is good occupation for afternoons and eve- nings, when it is too bad to venture out, and there are several long hours to be- guile. Here are directions for making a very handsome and serviceable one for goldfish and plants: Get four panes of glass. Two of them should be 12x16 inches, and two of them 16x28 inches. Get carpenter to make wooden frame furnished with small grooves for the glass, or make one for yourself if you are an amateur carpenter. Slip the glass in the grooves and cement with preparation made of one part of finely powdered res in, one part plaster of Paris, one part ot litharge, and one part of fine beach sand mixed into putty with boiled linseed oil
 It will stand water nicely. Remember that you must supply your aquarium with growing plants or your fish will not live long. ' ...

DOWN THE RAPIDS.

We were merry party strolllng among the woods and waters of the Adirondacks magical word to summon up visions of nature in her sublime grandeur-lake upon lake sparkling i'll the summer sun like liquid d1amonds forest blending into forest until they melted in the misty shadows of the blue horizon; mountains rising beyond mountains ill the distance until their pinnacles lowered above us like giant fingers pointing upward; deep abysses where the torrents roared and thundered and the feeting shadows turk ed like phantoms.
 We had cast life's cares and responsi- Utilities behind us and yielded ourselves up to the grateful rest of the communion with nature Strolling in the forests, just tinted with the first hues of autumn, hunting on the lakes or fishing in the teeming brooks-it was all one long dream of happy luxury.
 Yet we did not wander aimlessly. We had guide who chose our camps, coun- seled and led us on our expeditions, and, concerning him, one word. He was an Indian-one of the few survivors of the once powerful nation of the Iroquois-a tall, angular, keen eyed man past the middle age, the sinews of whose lean 1 body seemed nodded of iron. Quiet, re- served. speaking but seldom and then I briefly and to the purpose, he had yet worked his way deep into our regard, for as Colonel Hood afterward remarked, stHe was brave man and fine shot, and what more could you ask?'' l Brave he was certainly, as this narra- l tive will go to show, and fine shot, as his prowess among the game had time ! and again proved. We called him John, hut his name was Wahneema, and he had the proud blood of chiefs coursing in l his veins.
 Word came to us one morning that the 1 track of deer had been discovered on the hanks of stream mile or more up the mountain.
 It happened to be Sunday, 8 beautiful day, and the majority of the party, wea- ried by week of such active life, pre- ferred to remain in our cozy little camp on the borders of the lake. But Colonel Hood and myself, the two most ardent and experienced hunters present, shoul- dered our rifles and announced our de- I termination to bag one or more of those
 deer ere we returned. John quietly picked
 up his gun and took the lead as,we set off. l A tiresome climb over rocks and fallen
 trees finally brought us to our destina- tion-a little mountain lake, from which } the stream dashed in a foaming torrent,
 fierce and irresistible. Here we paused
 to recover breath and enjoy the prospect
 A beautiful scene it was too!

JERSEYS AT CHICAGO.

Hon. B. s. Henry, of Rockville, has been informed by the superintendent of the Jersey herd at the exposition that his Baroness of Argyle leads the. herd in the quality of butter produced in the 1st test month, ending June 30, being 6S. 95 lbs. though closely followed by five others. The test referred to is a three months competitive butter test to determine the relative capacity of different breeds, Jer- seys, Guernseys, Shorthorns, etc, con- ducted under the supervision of an impar- tial committee appointed by the directors of the Columbian exposition. Twenty five cows, the best to be found, have been selected from each breed contesting. These COWS are carefully fed, charged with feed consumed, and credited with butter produced. Cows are milked regu- larly three times daily, the milk being separately weighed and tested. The re- suit cannot be forecast as yet, but it can be said that, at the end of the first month, the Jerseys are largely ahead.
 
 cey B. Ripley, of Westfield, N. J., who has been appointed advisory counselor in the department of agriculture of the Co lumbian. exposition, is the owner of 8 large herd of Jersey cattle. He is about to place on exhibition at the Chicago ex hibition number of his choicest rnimals
 The head of DEg Ripley's herd is Pc dro's Royal Majoram, whose sire was Pc dro and whose dam was Majoram II o the Stoke Dogis, or St. Lambert strain Pedro is one of the most famous sires o this country. He is owned by T. Cooper, of Coopersburg, Penn, who pail BIO, ,OOO for him.
 Pedro's Royal Majoram, +accompanie by several other illustrious members 0 Dr. Ripley's herd, including Lorne's Prim rose II and the Infanta Pedro Majoram were placed in a special train July 1st and are now on their way over the Phils de1phia and Reading road to Coopersburg Penn. There they will be joined by a equally select number of bulls and COW from the herd of MT. Cooper. They wi then proceed directly to the Chicago e1 position. In Chicago they will meet flu ly thousand other Jerseys from a lands, and will compete with them for tt large prizes offered. ..-. *-.
 Since New Jersey is the leading stat of the best known breeding of Jersey ca tie, it is probable that her exhibit at Oh cago will compare favorably with al other exhibit, either from home or abroa. The breeders of fancy strains of cattle
 New Jersey are for the most part wealtf men. many of whom. are from New Yor They often expep1Saar more than the herds yield. ~
 A few years ago a fine Jersey often so for $4 ,OOO or $5, ,O0O, but at present on tenth of these sums is considered a got price. The rate, however, at which Il Jerseys are bought and sold is of min importance to the wealthy men who nal the business pleasant vocation. It their hobby to own COWS that can bret tho milk and butter record, and if tn can do this they are happy.
 Dr. Ripley's cattle which fairly repr sent the herds of New Jersey, will rena on exhibition until the close of the fair.

ROn-BOns,

s.What is woman to think about when she is ironing, sweeping, washing dishes, mending stockings, making beds Upon something her mind must act and feed ! upon the pure spirit of knowledge or upon foul dregs!"
 This was the question Mrs. Smith put to herself and she determined that her mind should have something good and nutritious to feed upon, that she would accomplish something besides mere house. work. She could not set apart certain portion of the twenty -four hours for read ing and thinking, but some uncertain part of it she resolved she would appropriate One good book that she selected to read she kept in the foot of the cradle or under the pillow, and when she took up the ba- by her book was near at hand, and she read few pages while rocking the baby. Another book she kept in the. mending basket, and after one piece of work was done she read 0 little before beginning on another.
 On one of the kitchen shelves along with the cook-books were several vol= umes, any one of which she could open while waiting flor some dish to cook that needed constant attention. This was a very scrappy way of gaining information and improving her mind," but in Mrs.
 Smiths circumstances it was the only way available for her. It was that or nothing.
 These bon-bons thus snatched in hours of
 toll kept alive Mrs. Smiths interest in the world of books, and whetted her ap-
 petite for larger supplies After awhile
 her children grew up and away from her knees, and she had time for continuous
 reading.
 Sometimes it is as well to keep cob
 webs out of ones mind as out of one's
 parlor Often it is better to embroidei
 the intellectual fabric of ones own nature
 than to embroider one's garments, or ruff
 fle and tuck the children's clothes. Int
 absolute needs of the body are easily sup
 piled; the conventional needs often bank
 rupt ones resources and leave him beg gar. The life is more than meat. Shall ou
 chief concern be to feed the perishins body with needful food, when the soul ii
 left to starve in ignorance? Between th pairs of stockings we darn for our boys let us put page of some profitable bool } into our brains, that we may better lea } their feet in noble paths. The time vii , come when the question will be, no whether they have sound stockings, bu l whether they have sound understandings When they come to stretch their facultie g against the tug of this exacting world = they will be grateful for having had wis . and intelligent mothers.
