Game eggs and small birds alike are
the objects of the foes. furred and
feathered, who come behind man.
The feathered ones naturally have
the widest scope; for eggs, whether

equally within the range of sight and
swoop. The furred ones have to con-
tent themselves with the ground
eggs, which are, of courset the best3

variety. And among them we rank
facile princeps the stealthy, sinuous,
ubiquitous weasel Stoat and pole
like eggs, but they are rarer and more
sparsely distributed than the smaller
but much more effective weasel This
willy creature is an egg-suelrer Of
immense enthusiasm and persever-
ance. Winding its way through the
purple heather, or the scrub and
bracken, toward the nursery of the
red black grouse, creeping amid

out of disused drain In the farm
yard, accommodating the hen houses,
gliding through the long grass at the
edges of the rides, and amid the hszels

the pheasant's costly eggs, the weasel
is equally indefatigable. 1t will ban

The Aaseleeneter.

The "angleometer" is a newly patent
ed instrument for determining AMI

observers line Of sight, and thus mak-
lily 1t possible for navigators to obtain
reliable attitudes of celestial objects at
sea without a horizon Of any kind; fur.
thermore. 1t 10 quite independent Of the
height Of the observers eye above the
sea level. The device consists of a
simple attachment for the scxtant Of
quadrant. It is secured to the telescope
holder by a thumb-screw. The great
importance OF this useful instrument TO
masters who have valuable lives and
property under their care cannot be
tverestlmated. It win be found e..
.pecially serviceable In such trades an
the North Atlantic and st. Lawrence,
wher dense fogs are prevalent during
the summer months, while the sun,
moon and stars are often plainly visi-
bic overhead, but hitherto practically
useless to the navigator, except for
aximuthS. Under such conditions this
instrument will be the means Of rellev.
ing captains from doubt and anxiety,
as It secures the safety Of the ship
when the sea horizon b unreliable or

The Hen .nd Family R.t,on,.

Too many farmers depend too much
on the village grocer for their table
supplies, which exhausts the profits Of
the farm. This is a great mistake.
A good vegetable garden, q variety Of
small fruits and IN orchard with plenty
of fruit for the table and some to sell,
are much more satisfactory than what
you are able to buy at the store. A
well-kept poultry-yard with eggs the
year round and fowl for the roast or
stew US often as desired afford a family
an independence not found elsewhere.
Every farmer who knows what he Is
about keeps n few hens, as there is no
other product on the farm that pays
flock Of hens well attended, especially
in the winter season. We do not mean
to say that there is more profit in win
ter but they need more care. as IN sum.
mer they will, with freedom, mostly
look after themselves. Some will say,
my hens do not pay for their keeping"
This Is true In many cases, but 1t Is al
ways the fault of the man and not the
hens.
,rhose Of you who are blaming your
hens because they do not lay should
consider the reason. Have they warm
quarters? They cannot lay in winter
unless they have green food. such as
cabbage and tho like. and plenty Of
shells, ground or powdered bones, and
gravel. Give them warm water for
drink. Give them warm mash in the
morning, made Of wheat bran and corn
meal, or corn meal and ground oats.
II you do this, and your hens do not lay
then you may blame your hens.

or situations, shown in a photograph
have not necessarily occurred at the
same time. Thus, in the photograph
Of Mr.. Gladstone. the part where the
head and body are to appear is COW
cred up at tho first exposure and the
rest Of the photograph is taken.
Then all except the space which was
covered up before Is covered up and
on the reserved space the head and

making the joining Of the two parts
Of the photograph 80 neatly that the

Of the ghost is due to the fact that
the lady who assumes that character

HADA MousE,N BED WITH HER
The Blood-Curdling Experience Of
Girl Li.iag in q Boston suburb.

The Blood-Curdling Experience Of y
Girl Li~aag in . Boston suburb.
Not long ago a young lady was lying
half awake in bed in an old house in
one Of Boston's suburbs. Suddenly she
became wholly awake with the con-
sciousness that q mouse was running
over her chest. She had presence Of
mind enough not to move, reasoning
that the mause would presently run
away without harming her. But in
stead Of running away the little crea-
ture crept into her neck, and there
nestled comfortably down. his back
curled against the lower part of her
cheek, which lay ON the pillow. The
lady's blood was simply frozen with
horror, but she did not dare to move,
fearing that the mouse would bite her
IL she did. Collecting her wits, she I'm
ally resolved that she would by q
mighty and sudden effort, jump side
wise in the bed away from the mouse,
leaving him high and dry on the pill
low, and then get quickly up and out
Of bed on the other side. She would
count three, and then jump. She count
ed one, two, three-and then she did
not jump. The mouse nestled comfort.
ably closer to her neck. 1t was now or
never. She began agin and counted
one, two, three! This time she jumped
sidewise downward, upward and every
way, and screamed besides at the top
OF her voice. Whatever became of the
mouse could not be learned by the
Transcript, for when all the family
came, with lamps and pokers and 9TH
er weapons, to her aid, no trace of the
poor little creature could be found.
Perhaps he was frightened entirely but
Of existence by the young lady'a
scream.
