AN AID TO MILKING,
The Coiiegian's Advice to His Father which
Resulted DisastrousIy.

The CoIIegian's Advice TO His Father which
Resulted Disastrousiy.
A college student in one of our west
ern states returned home after his course
was finished to find that his father,
clergyman with small salary, was
eking out his living by running small
farm. One of the adjuncts of the farm
was COW, pretty good animal, which
however, had strong aversion to being
milked.
Here was an opportunity for display
of the lately acquired knowledge of the
Juvenile collegian.
Father" said he, Professor q. says
IL ono will place q weight upon cows
back it will make her give down the
milk"
The reverend gentleman, favorably
impressed with this information that
his son had learned from Professor g.,
decided to try the simple remedy. In
stead, however, Of placing weight
upon the cows back, the clergyman
placed himself upon it, But then he
answered the purpose. The COW, how
ever, was still obstinate.
"Tie my legs under the cow" said
tho father to his son.
The son did 80. But the COW, unused
to such unusual and arbitrary proceed
ings, manifested her displeasures by
rearing and plunging, entirely unmind-
full of the dignity Of the parsonage
astride her spinal column. 1t was get
ting altogether too interesting for the
two bipeds concerned in the transac-
tion.
"Cut the rope, cut the ropel" shout
ed Mr.. V. to his dutiful son, meaning
the rope by which he was attached to
tho COW.
But the son, being somewhat excited,
cut the rope by which the COW was fas-
tened to the stanchion. At once avail
ing herself of the liberty thus offered,
the COW took an unceremonious exit
from the stable, and down through the
street she went. The minister accom-
panied the COW, but in n manner not ex-
actly befitting the dignity of his profes-
sion.
As it happened, one Of the sisters Of
the congregation was on the street as
the race was in progress. Surprised at
such sight, the good sister cried out,
"Why, Brother ", where are you 60
ing!"
His sense of the ludicrous coming to
his aid, Brother V. shouted back: "The
Lord and the COW only know. / don'tW
The clergyman was eventually rescued
from his awkward perch and never at
tempted the feat again. Voice.

WelIington,s Greatest Battle.

A hitherto unpublished letter of the
Duke of Wellington written to Colonel
Wilke, one of the garrison Of st. Hell
ena when Napoleon was there, contains
the following interesting reference to
the dukes greatest battle;.
They used to call me the sepoy gen.
eral. 1t is due to my having been Sc
poy general that won the battle of
Waterloo. 1t targht me where to place
men with whom could trust the honor
Of England and where to place men
who were not SO satisfactory. I had
troops with me at Waterloo in whose
hands the safety and honor of king and
country could we'll be placed. had
numbers Of others, some Of whom I
could not trust at all, some could bare.
ly trust, and others who were not prop
erly trained. 1t was owing to the fact
OF my having learned in the sepoy wars
to place the best Of the men in the parts
Of the field where the greatest courage
and bravery were required. and others
where those qualities were not required,
that won the battle of Waterloo.

A Zig Cypress Tree.


We started at $3.50 o'clock, determin-
ing to take on our way the big cypress
of Tula, which is so large that II is
worthy to be ranked above the big trees
of California. We found IL i'm the in
closure of the parish church. There is
no doubt that the latter was built in
that place because of the tree, for which
the Indians feel great veneration 1t is
precisely of the same kind as the trees
of Chapultepec, but the largest there is
only 40 feet I'm circumference, while this
one is, by recent measurement, 152 feet
4 inches There is another difference,
and very marked one, and this is the
tendency to a flattening of the lower
and larger branches and Of the peculiar
buttresses which the trunk throws out
In the latter they are almost as fiat as
boards, and in the branches the flatness
is that of wedge. The contrast be-
tween these and the upper ones, which
are rounded, is very striking. The
trunk is not like an ordinary one, but
resembles a buttressed wall, so that tho
two diameters vary enormously. The
height must be less than 200 feet, MAX
ing the appearance in photograph al
most dwarfish. The spread of the
branches from north to south is gigan-
tic, and the effect of light and shade is
entrancing to the artist. There are col
onies Of lizards and Of various birds in
the different departments of the trunk
and branches, and upon the green dome
of the top We're group Of buzzards that
croaked without intermission during our
whole stay. San Francisco Chronicle.

Is q Frog q Fish?

Is q frog q fish? This is the problem
which the officials Of the Dominion fish
cry department have recently had to
consider. Petitions were forwarded to
the department from the inhabitants of
Northumberland, Ont, praying for a
close season for frogs. A lucrative trade
in the shipment Of frogs legs had been
done In that county, but it was discov-
cred that the very time when the frogs
are spawning is one when the greatest
havoc is wrought among them. Posi-
bly, change will be made in the fishery
laws SO as to embrace frogs. The officers
say that in their embryotio stage frogs
are certainly fishes, but later on they
take an amphibious character. Hall.
