LADY MAJENDIE
CHAPTER VII.-Continued,

And this was q week agO-nay, more
ten or eleven days ago. Master Mai
colin seized on his hat and rushad down
stairs, calling loudly for cab
He drove off to Whittle Court, bribng
The cabman to drive with speed.
1t was long ride and the street that
they drove down at last was marrow and
dirty. Damp clothes hung out of the
windows to dry, and dirty children were
making mudpies in the road.
No. 60 turned out to be sort of carpet
shop, where rugs and brushes were hung
Ill over the outside; ana the Minister
lad to pick his way through piles of
chairs and iron bedsteads. The atmos-
phere was chOlled with dust.
The shop-owner, fussy little man, in
d black apron, directed him up stairs
and to the topmost story he went, where
he was received by a clean-looking wo-
man, who at his first inquiry burst into
lears.
$50 you have come after her, poor
lady, and might have helped her." she
sobbed; land she so ill.,"
''Can | see her at once?"
Claw bless you, sir see her? She has
been gone this week"
"GOne? whereof
''Where them must go who has none

she has gone TO the workhouse."
Assunta, the proud Assunta, come to
this. Master Malcolm felt stunned as he
heard the news; he hurried down stairs,
the woman gave him the direction, and
he was once more on the road.
Poor Assunta poor child" he muir
INJURED to himself; what piteous fate"
Now the CAP ratified up to the door,
and stopped, and Master Malcolm got
sut. He asked for the matron, and was
received by her in her business room.
She was a kind-hcarted woman and
most anxious to do all in her power to
help those under her charge.
LET me see" said she rapidly wetting
her thumb, and turning over the pages
Of her thick book of cases. A young wo-
man taken in on Thursday the eleventh.

1t him.

''Too late?'

The Minister covered his face with his
hands. ''Can | see her?' he said, after
Il moments pause.
The matron nodded and led the way.
Ablebodied inmates were sweeping the
stairs, and she spoke sharply to one or
two as she passed. A strong smell of
ironing from the laundry below filled the
air. She opened the door of little
room apart and ushered him in.
Under a coarse, white sheet lay a
rigid, still form. The matron raised it's
folds, and he looked for the last time
on the calm, dead face of Assunta.

asked leave to stay and pray, and the
matron left him alone.

Young Editors Who Murder Statesmen

Speaking to prominent newspaper
editor, he said: The changes, not to
say the diseases, of our times, produce
effects we are yet to deal with. For
instance, the newspaper press is rather
element at the present time. The de-
struction of public men is going on
faster than the destruction of the Ameri-
con forests. Not enough attention is
paid to the encouragement of statesmen.
In old times, as under Thurlow Weed,
editors taught their young men to go
into the company of the Senators, Con-
cressmen, Judges. etc, and exchange
views, and consequently the press in
public life had reciprocal influence.
But now young fellows come into the
papers with no acquaintance at all with
the men who conduct the country, or
with their difficulties, and every one of
those young chaps regards himself as
Of no account till he has killed off at
least two or three public men. The
consequence is that we have dearth of
confident, useful, trusted statesmen. !
do not think the change is for the bet
ter. You must give public man sup
port and encouragement enough to
make his business palatable to him,
and when he finds himself fred on from
ambush from twenty directions he
grows timid, never develops mole than
half, and the result is seen in the cheap
ness of the men who now do come
to the front Those who are without
sensibility get the foremost positions.

CHAPTER VIII.

In Edgar street, Soho, was q we'll
known book-Shop kept by Fairdon
Brothers One of the two brothers An
drew Fairdon, attended TO the business;
the other had gone out to Australia
many years ago, and having sent home
money to put into the business, honest
Andrew had added "Brothers' in large
letters to the Inscription over the door
Lowell Fairdon had almost faded from
The remem brance of the English rela-
lives. The two brothers in former days
had been close companions and friends,
both intelligent, both ambitious. Lovers
ambition took y practical, money-mak-
ing turn; Andrews was Quenched by his
falling in love, which caused him con-
centedly to take up his fathers trade,
and sell books in Edgar street, Soho
The girl whom he married had little
DOVER of two hundred pounds, very
profitable to the business. She was
somewhat beneath him in position, far
below him in education, the only child
of q small tenant-farmer. She had lived
gH her life among poultry and cows, and
was easily attracted by the clever young
Londoner, who came down frequently
for country Sunday; and her shy,
gentle manner, and the fresh sweetness
3f ner beauty, proved 10 nun an IRE
sistibIe attraction.
The shrewder Lowell tried to talk away
ms brothers fancy, but Andrews hear
had always been better than his head,
and he triumphantly brought home his
young wife from the green open country
to gloomy Soho.
Mamie pinned at first, as was but nat
aral. Andrew was too clever for her:
he was always talking OF things OF which
she knew nothing; always writing scraps
IF poetry that she could admire. though
she could not understand. Sometimes
he would be angry with her want of
power of criticism; discriminating ad-
miration he called it-not blind incense.
But with all his absurdities he was a
good and amiable man. and few couples
loved each other with a more harmoni-
GUS love than Andrew Fairdon and Nan
uie his wife.
Mamie had but one real trouble in the
wide world now that she had outliyed
ner transportation into the busy hum
CT the London streets, and that trouble
was that the onlv little child God had

A HOMEMADE WHEELBARROW.

one-half feet long of 2x2 stuff, made
the handles. The legs are 4!x2
inches, and about ten inches long.
The braces are 1Ix2 inches, and
twenty-five inches long. Two cross
pieces of one-inch stuff, one nineteen
inches long the other a little shorter,
and each about five inches wide, COM
pie the material used in construction.
To the handles the legs are simply
enabled with wire nails, and with
the same size nails the braces are
nailed securely to legs and handles.
The back cross piece is then nailed to
the legs, a place being beveled on the
legs to receive it. The wheel is then
inserted in holes, bored slanting
through the handles. The box is
then nailed fast to the frame and the
under cross pieces nailed to the braces
and handles. No mortises and tenons
are used, the whole being simply
nailed together. The braces, being
extended beneath the legs, keep them
from being knocked off. While the
barrow is much lighter than those
usually sold in the stores, it has been
much used in wheeling rocks and
gravel in grading my grounds and all
general purposes in the garden. The
wheel and all parts, as shown in the
engraving, can be easily made by any
farmer, who has suitable tire and
square bolt, with round ends, for the
axle of the wheel and some skill with
tools.

An Improvement on Corn Ensilage.

Oats and peas sown together make
a fodder rich in heterogeneous matter
or protein that is just the thing to
supplement- the deficiency of corn en-
silage in this element. J. H. Dyer,
a large milk producer in Middlesex
County, Mass, had two acres of peas

Is any general migration | am not
prepared to say. The generally rec
commended plan Of destroying the
root form is to lay bare the upper
most roots and pour boiling hot water
upon them. Another plan is to use
bisulphide Of carbon, pouring two
ounces into hole made near the
trunk Of the tree. The hole can be
made with sharp stick to the depth
Of foot or more, the fluid poured in
and the hole packed with earth at
the opening. The trunk or branches
can be sprayed with kerosene emul-
sion, or the emulsion used by scrub
bling the tree with sponge, rags, or
old broom, so as to thoroughly dis
lodge the lice and bring them in con-
tact with the fluid, their WOolly
bodies tending to shed the first ap-
plication. Subject trees that are be-
ing transplanted to a dip if suspected
of harboring lice, to kill them or the

ally destroy all lice and eggs. I'M

The corn silage has twice as much
water as the pea-and-oat silage. With
only 20 lbs. Of dry matter to the
hundred weight, the amount of the
different nutrimentS is Of course
much less in the corn than in the
pea-and -oat silage, the latter being
62 per cent. dry matter This matter
contains nearly IA per cent. of pro-
TEN against only s per cent. in the
dry matter of corn silage, so that
with three times as much dry matter
in the pea-and-oat silage, the table
shows that 100 lbs. of it contains
nearly four times as much portein as
does the corn silage. Hence the
former makes up what the corn lacks,
and the two different kinds of silage
together make a pretty complete
feed. Mr.. Dyer still further balanced
up or enriched the pasture by feeding
damaged wheat, which contained a
still larger proportion of protein.
The milk part showed the benefit OF
this ration. Farmers should try peas
and oats, either as dry fodder or as
ensilage. Farm and Home.

"A Cheap and Durable Nheelbarrow.

Last spring, the hardware stores
were out Of wheel barrows, when went
to purchase one, and each CT my neigh
bors had his barrow in use. writes J.
L. Townsend in the American Agri-
culturist. Rather than wait for the
new stock expected at the stores, |
spent about three hours in designing
and making one that has proved to be
so strong, light, and cheap, that it
should be more widely known. An
old barrow wheel fifteen inches in di-
ameter, a dry-goods box of seven
Fights stuff 22x3O inches, cut down to
depth of eight inches, furnished the
beginning of the implement. Two
pieces of red pine, or spruce four and

Farm Notes.

IT is of no advantage to have feed
before animals all the time. Whether
it be grain or rOughness. the better
and more economical plan Is to give
them what they will eat up clean.
For lice on cattle the best remedy
is to pour a quart of boiling water on
four ounces Of fresh Dalmatian in
sect powder, allow it to stand for two
or or three hours, and, after first
washing the animal with whale Oil
soapsuds, swab Che skin with the So
luton Of insect powder.
A HALF acre devoted to garden
will convince the farmer that he can
make at least good living on small
farm. The value Of garden crop
should not be estimated by the prices
which the articles will bring if sold,
but by what they would cost the
farmer if he did not have them and
had to buy them.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Country
Gentleman, with forty-two years eX-
perience, says: ''Do your pruning
little every year about one week be-
fore the trees blossom. This gives
them surplus Of sap just as the fruit
is setting. Your fruit is sure to set
and stick to the tree, and will stand
more cold and blasting winds"
IT is claimed that the short horns
have improved the cattle of America
more than all other improved cattle
that were ever brought here. They
have raised the average weight of
thousands Of our beef cattle from 200
to 500 pounds head and reduced
the selling age a whole year, besides
greatly increasing the selling price.
SCIENTIFIC authority now acknowl-
edges what practical farmers said
long ago, that corn-cobs have a feed
ing value when ground with the corn.
At first they denied this, because
analysis did not show it; then they
thought it might be Of benefit by
mixing with the meal and preventing
it from packing SO closely Now, Sir
Lyon Playfair Of England, says that
when ground along with the grain
the cobs ''are of great value on ac-
count Of their percentage Of potash,
and the potash is neces airy as a
chemical agent to change the blood
milk, and the albumen to caseine in
cheese"
