Where Earrings Go.

People often wonder where all the
earrings 60 or have gone to. A few
years ago the fashion of wearing these
relics of barbarism was quite general,
but now it is the exception, and not the
rule, to see well-dressed lady with q
pair. Indeed, the ornaments have been
left off so long that scores of ladies
who used to wear them could hardly
do so now without inconvenience and
pain. But the pretty toys or gems
have not been thrown away or wasted;
thousands have been worked up into
other and more fashionable ornaments.
Many very handsome brooches have
been made out of earrings which have
outlived the fashion, and there has been
quite large amount of ingenuity dis
played in the work so as to do away
with any suspicion of nd-hand in
the reconstructed adornments. More
than one pair has been made up into
sleeve buttons and presented to mem
ber of the sterner sex, and others have
been fitted with pins and used by their
fair owners as hat or hair pins. The
best judges in these matters doubt
whether earrings, as such, will ever be-
come popular again, and it is very un-
usual for young ladies nowadays to have
their ears pierced at all.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.

Selecting a Title.

From first to last Dickens did his
work conscientiously, and the selection
of titles was grave anxiety to him,
many being rejected before one was
chosen. The familiar name of Chuzzle-
wit, Howard Paul tells us, went through
curious process of evolution. First
it was Sweezleden, then Sweezlebuck,
then Sweezleway. None of these would
do The Sweezle then became Chuzzle,
and there was new series of Chuzzle-
toe, Chuzzleboy, Chuzzlewig. and,
finally, Chuzzlewit For Hard Times"
nineteen or twenty titles were rejected.
Here are some of them: Heads and
Tails, Two and Two are Four" Our
Hard Hearted Friend '"Rust and Dust, )"
a Mere Question of Figures" Mr..
Gradgrind's Facts, BLACK and White. .
David Copperfield'' was especially
troublesome. Even after he had fixed
upon the hero's name it took him some
time to arrange the exact form of the
title. During sojourn in Genoa
Dickens was puzzling his brain to find
title for cne of his Christmas tales,
when the city bells rang out peel of
chimes. He was in a nervous, excited
state, and the noise of the bells agitated
him. But they gave him the title he
was seeking. and he called the book
The Chimes. Another novel for
which he found it difficult to decide
upon name was Bleak House. We
might have known it under any of the
following titles: ''The Solitary House
that was Always Shut Up The East
Wind, The Ruined Mill that Got Into
Chancery and Never Got Out, The
Solitary House where the Grasses
Grew No doubt Dickens invented
some of the names of his characters,
but many of the most remarkable were
borrowed from signs that met his view
in his journeys. Imagined that Chad
band was made name--it fits the
character to whom the author applied
it so exactly; but it was the name of
either draper or grocer on the out
skirts of the town of Warwick. JUL
was the name of confectioner; Pick
wick that of job master at Bath. In
later life the novelist collected and
stored up names for future use, making
use of such sources as directories and
the small towns in railway guides.

English Meadows.

How and when men first learned to
make hay will probably never be known.
For hay making is a process, d" and the
product is not simply sun-dried grass,
but grass which has been partly fer
mented, and is as much the work Of
mems hands as flour or cider. Probably
its discovery was due to accident, but
possibly man learned it from the pikas,
the calling hares' of the steppes, which
cut and stack hay for the winter. That
idea would fit in nicely, with the theory
that Central Asia was the "home of the
Aryan race, if we were still allowed to
believe it, and hay-making is certainly
an art mainly practised in cold coun-
tries for winter forage.
Probably there are no meadows in
the world so good as those in England,
or so old. Yet from the early Anglo
Saxon times old meadow has been dis
tinguished from pastures and has
always been scarce. Two thirds of
what is now established meadow land
still shows the marks of ridge and fur
row; and from the great time required
to make meadow-ten years at least
on the best land, hundred on the
worst-men have always been reluctant
to break up old pasture. The ancient
meadows, with their great trees and
close, rich turf, are the sole portion of
the earth's surface which modern agri-
culture respects and leaves in peace.

THE EARLY OWL

-
An owl once lived in hollow tres,
And he was as wise as wise could I've.
The branch of learning he didn't know
Could scarce on the tree of knowledge grow
He knew the tree from branch to root,
And All owl like that car afford to hoot.
And he hooted-until. alas! one day
He chauced to hear, in casual way,
An insignificant little bird
Make use of term he had never heard.
He was flying to bed in the dawning light
When he heard her singing with all her might.
"Hurray Murray. for the early worm"
Dear me, said the owl, what a singular
term!
would look it up if it weren't so late.
] must rise at dusk to investigate.
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes an owl healthy and stealthy and wise!r
So he slept like an honest owl all day.
And rose i'm the early twilight gray,
And went to work in the dusky light
To look for the early worm at night.
He searched the country for miles around,
But the early worm was not to be found;
So he went to bed in the dawning light.
And looked for the worm" again next night,
And again and again. and again and again
He sought and he sought, but all in vain.
Till he must have looked for year and a day
For the early worm in the twilight gray.
At last in despair he gave up the search,
And was heard to remark as he sat on his
perch
By the side of his nest in the hollow tree:
1.-The thing is as plain as night to me
Nothing can shake my conviction firm.
There's no such thing as the early worm"

The Children's Pleasure Ground.

The Milk Garden of Frankfort, re-
served for the children of that aristo-
cratic city, is in itself one of the most
democratic of places Here rich peo-
pie who wish to be relieved for time
of the presence of their children, send
them, accompanied by their nurses !;
and here poor people, who can neither
afford to devote their own time to their
children nor hire separate nurses for
them, may bring their little ones, cer-
tain that from the garden nurses they
will receive all the care and attention
necessary to safety, health and amuse-
ment. Private nurses of the rich peo-
pie, and public nurses of the working
people are subject to supervision suf-
ticient to protect the children of all
classes from cruelty and neglect. The
only food furnished in the garden is
milk, whose freshness and purity are
assured, inasmuch as it is drank warm
from the mild d-eyed COWS which occupy
dainty stalls on one edge of the field.
Children may be left in care of the gar
den for the entire day, or for any por-
tion of the day, just as the parents may
desire. The patronage of the garden
includes children whose parents hire its
benefits by the year, as they might rent
box in the theater for season others,
who come on certain days in each week
when their mothers work away from
home, and still others whose mothers
gain a little respite by leaving them
there while they go to market or take
an excursion with the house father.
The fees are very moderate, and so
classified that they are lightest for the
poor. The garden is SO administered
that it is self-supporting business en-
terprise and still is the means of much
charity certain number of children
always enjoy its benefits without price,
but these pensioners of it's bounty are
not identified and therefore the demo
cratic equality of the institution is not
impaired. The milk garden is not a
summer luxury, but is arranged to suit
the needs of the varying seasons, and
maintained throughout the year.

NAPOLEON THE GREAT,
description by One Who Saw Him as
ROrOfiinO.

Borodino.
MaIor-General Yakovitch of the Rms
eian Army is one OF the few men now
living who saw the great Napoleon on a
battle field The old gentleman saw
the French Emperor at Borodino. At
that battle Yakovitch, then mere boy,
served with battery in the grand re-
doubt, which was the center of the
Russian line. He gives vivid descrip-
tion of the battle. When morning
broke sea of gray mist shut out the
field from view. The voices of the
enemy were heard, the neighing of their
horses, and the rumbling of artillery
| wheels. Then came the thunder of
cannon, making the very earth tremble.
Three times all the Russian gunners
were killed and three times new men
took their places. Bullets flew thick
as hail and men dropped dead or man
gled cry moment.
At last strange sound was heard in
the distance like rain pattering on
withered leaves. 1t grew loud and
louder, until it filled the air like the
roar of a stormy sea. All at once a
great wave of bright swords and he'll
NETS and horses heads came surging
over the breastworks. It was the I'M
perial Guard. Before the shock Of the
| mighty wave the Russian center crum-
bled away, shattered wrecks. W en-
Yakoyitch came to his senses and
opened his eyes he saw a ound him the
corpses of his father and comra les.
Suddenly the trampling of hoofs called
| his attention to a group of gayiy
dressed off ers, and Napoleon's staff
came riding over the field. The young
Russian peered anxiously into their
faces. In his graphic language
''There were the hard faces Of Rapp
and Darn and broad-chested Sebastian
| and Nansouty, with the saber scars
across his cheek, and the low, broad
forehead and bulldog jaw of grim old
Ney, the bravest of them all. There,
too, was Murat, with his white plumes
and his braided jacket, his riding whip
in his hand, just like a circus rider.
And then the group parted suddenly,
and there was the man himself in the
midst of them, with his face hard and
immovable as marble anil all the blood
and agony and far away look in those
cold gray eyes of his as if he saw Mos
COW somewhere up in the sky, but coul ,
see nothing between. "A glorious vic
| tory 7 cried Murat, waving his hand.
What stir there'll be among the good
folks in Paris when the bulletin a.
rives We've lost half our army in
doing it, though growled Ney. Hadn't
We better fall back little and wait
there for endorsements 2 Then Ma
poleon turned his head slowly, just as
the statue might do, and looked him i'll
the face. Thou advising retreat,
Michael? That is something new, in
deed Mono falling back now. I
must date my bulletin from Moscow.
As for the army, you cau't make an
omelette without breaking few eggs. "
Yakovitch says when he heard that he
knew God had forsaken Napoleon, fol-
no man save one doomed to destruction
could have spoken so lightly of the
slaughter of thousands of brave men.
In three months from that day the
French Emperor was flying for his life
across the border with the Cossacks al
his heels like hungry wolves.

STRAW FOR STOCK.
Not n Complete Food, But Very VAL
uable Auxiliary.

Not Complete Food, But Very VAL
uable Auxiliary.
When oats and wheat have not been
allowed to get too ripe before harvest
ing and the straw has been properly
stacked at threshing so that it will
keep in good condition it makes a good
rough feed to use during the winter.
1t is not a complete food, however, and
therefore needs to be used in connec-
ton with other materials in order to
give the best results. AS it does not
supply all the elements of nutrition in
the right proportion to maintain a
thrifty growth an animal must eat
more than it can properly digest in
order to grow on straw alone. But by
combining it with other materials q
wholesome, economical ration can be
made up that will not only use the
straw to good advantage, but also
lessen the cost of wintering the stock.
For cattle and sheep one of the best
ways of feeding is to take the same
quantity of clover hay as of straw and
add one-eighth the weight of wheat
bran. Better results can be obtained
if the straw and hay are first run
through q cutting box and the bran is
added afterwards; there will be less
waste and more perfect ration will
be made A little oil meal may be
added, which, while increasing the cost
but little, will greatly improve it's
nutritive value.
If run through a cutting box and
bran and oil meal added a very good
ration can be made up that will keep
growing cattle or sheep thrifty.
If hay or corn fodder with little
grain is given at night, give all of the
straw the stock will eat in the morn
ing AS long as the weather will per-
NIT a good plan of management is to
provide good racks in the feed lots and
| fill with straw and turn the stock to
them in the morning, giving them all
that they will eat. This will be found
much more economical than to allow
them to run up to the stack
Later on, or, rather, when the weather
will not permit of turning the stock
out, the managers can be filled and what
is not eaten can be used for bedding.
and in this way material that in many
cases is largely wasted can be used to
a good advantage, while at the same
time the stock can be kept in a much
better condition than if they must de-
pend upon straw alone-St. Louis Re
| p,,hlic
