Fortunately no children were IN.
volved in the UNHAPPY complication
A month passed, and the talk
about the Traifords was dying out,
when. 10 and behold, their house was
again opened and occupied. Mrs
Trafiord had returned, and all who
met her observed her radiant cheer
fulness and Joy.
Reconciliation had certainly taken
place, xor Mr.. Trafford was coming
and going as usual. kissing his wife
at the door when he left her, right
before any chance witness or the
amatorial deIac nstration.
How had iii this come about? Mrs
Shandy, the first 10 tell OF the part
ing was miserable not 10 he able 10
explain the present situation. She
tried all plans OF interrogation and
discovery along with Mrs Allears,
but succeeded in none. and the re-
union did not yield her half the
pleasure the parting did.
Horace Tratford was a good fellow,
and his friends were relieved and de-
lighted to hear that he had taken
his wife back T. his heart and home.
They could not refrain from going TO
his Office to congratulate him.
He was dumbfounded as one after
another approached him. all with the
same expressions AT fist, thinking
some joke was being practiced
on him. he laughed. shook
hands. pretending that he knew
TO what they referred. Finally
the thing assumed mysterious and
serious look. especially when his
wire's name was mentioned, and to
his old friend, Tom Wright, who
came along with cordial expressions
Of sympathy and JOY. he exclaimed:
II don't understand you, Tom!
What is all this talk about? BY Jove!
what are the fellows up TO to-day?
They've evidently got some joke on
me which l don't understand. What
does IL all mean?"
Tom was now the astonished one.
Don't you really, know, Horace?"
he asked.
IL don't indeed, Tom! Something's
up What is it,"
Then Tom Wright explained.
"Ha, ha, ha." Tratford laughed.
"By Jove. Tom. That beats all!
Whoever started such lie? Why,
upon my soul, it's the very first I've
heard Of it,"
Hasn't Mrs Trafford been with
her mother whole month";" Tom
asked.
''Yes, she has, and went at my ur-
gent solicitation, just TO get little
rest from housekeeping.
Tom now touched on the subject
OF the quarrel overhead by Mrs.
Shandy and quickly reported, with
the usual establishment which gos-
sip adds TO every spreading report
Again TratIord laughed, this time
uproariously
"By Jove! Tom, that's the richest
thing of the season. Why, that was
the cook that morning at the side
door, girl we had imported from
the rural districts expecting much
comfort from securing her services.
We had done great deal for her,
but she had so mistreated and an

morning and had a good cry. Now
she is home feeling rested and happy,

Mrs. Shandy was the only one who
never forgave the Traifolds for not
having quarreled and parted, but she
established reputation. She was al

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Ripening cream well before churn.

ing easier.
Embden, White China, and Tou.
louise are among the best breeds OF
geese to raise.
No ventilation is as luxurious TO
poultry as draughts; pure air is es-
sential TO health.
In case of fire in stables, put a sad
die on your horse and you can lead him
out without difficulty.
Bones placed in fresh horse manure
soon soften and crumble, and soon be-
come ready for plant food.
When poultry diarrh@a is caused by
cold or damp quarters no internal
treatment will cause a cure.
Eggs for Matching should be gath
cred daily, handled carefully, and
stored in a cool, dry place.
With Brahmas, especially, better re-
suits are secured by limiting the num-
Der of hens 70 the roosters
AS young chickens have very small
crops they need feeding every two or
three hours during the day.
Morphine given to mares when in
milk poisons the latter and may cause
the death Of the sucking fosl.
Give the poultry . good range when
poss BILE; the coop and surroundings
get tiresome when confined too closely.
Ia molding butter scald the mold
6rst and then dip the print into cold
water. The butter then comes out in
nice firm cakes.
Grade the dressed poultry before
sending to market; a strictly choice
article brings the top prices, bat an
inferior article never does.
Good feed and care will improve COM
mon stock, but the surer and quicker
way is to introduce new and better
blood. Try a combination OF the two
methods.
As soon as the colts in pasture be-
gin 10 fall of in flesh from fighting
flies, place them in dsrkened stables
during the day and allow them to run
out at night.
Some one has said "The shepherds
who raise free wool on one side OF the
fence and dogs on the other are
bound to make q fuss, and who can
blame them"
Geese do not arrive At maturity I'M
til their third year, but are long
lived. When full-grown, geese will
weigh from twelve to eighteen pounds
when dressed.

gloves, lightly stitched with black

worn at afternoon receptions, day

ORIGIN OF THE MOTHER HUBBARD.

ORIGIN OF THE MOTHER HUBBARD.
The Mother Hubbard wrapper was
designed by woman in little
country village in New York State.
She made three or four Of these gar
ments and sold them TO the people
in the village. A buyer for II cloth
ing shop was passing through the
village and saw the garments. He
gave an order for some to be shipped
TO his firm. The woman who in
vented them now employs 200 or 300
women. For the name Mother Hub
bard she receives certain sum, and
has literally laid by enough money
TO keep her from want even though
the demand for these articles OF
feminine attire may cease any day.

DESTRUCTION OF INSECTS AND WEEDS.

DESTRUCTION OF INSECTS AND WEEDS
A writer in the Agricultural Gazette
of New South Wales says the crickets
were very numerous in his orchard o
few years ago, but he turned in about
l5O pigs, mostly young ones, ths
quickly attacked the crickets and their
Larvae, and completely exterminated
them, and rapidly grew fat by feeding
upon them. Those who have fields
infested by these or by the cut worm
will do well to bear this in mind. II,
tried to kill il out by hoeing. but bis
efforts proved failure, tending rather
to increase its growth. Then he en-
closed part of it and put on about
200 fowl, feeding them on corn nigh,
and morning for few days, then re
moving them to new location. III,
says, Nothing but the humble, lowly
but cheerful grass could withstand th,
continual henpecking." Many othei
weeds might be destroyedin this way.

A tourist might travel by rail from New
York to London if certain stretches in the
following imaginary route were covered by
railroads, such stretches amounting to a
total of some thousands of miles: New
York to San Francisco, by any one of the
Pacific" routes to Seattle, WASH, and
beyond, by railroads in operation; to Sitka,
by contemplated lines; to Cape Prince of
Wales, by roads remaining to be even con-
templated in this century; across Behring
strait, by railway transportation; to Ir-
koutsk, Siberia, partly by roads that must
wait some decades for building, and partly
by eastern projections from Irkoutsk, al
ready built; by the Siberian system to
Nizhnee Novgorod; to Moscow, Warsaw and
Berlin; to Strasburg, Paris and Calais;
across the strait of Dover to Dover; to Lon

He who, believing, strongly lays his hand
Unto the work that waits for him TO do
Though men should cavil, measures prove un
true,
Friends write their trusted promises on sand.
And failure mock him with its threatening
brand.
Still in the end he, fearless, shall pursue,
Till crack of doom, will find power which few
Or none with cause less righteous may COM
mand.
For conquest is not built on the defeat
OF any man whose aim is human good;
Who fights for justice hath already won,
Before no show of loss shall he retreat;
However crossed, maligned, misunderstood,
He knows but triumph in the work well done.

My darling, with eyes like October,
And heart that Is young as the May,
What shall wish thee, this day of daysf
Bethink thee, sweetheart, and say.
| would that time could stand still for awhile,
And leave thee as now thou art,
As fresh as the early dawn is fresh,
As white as the snowdrop's heart.
Let the rest of the world grow old and cold,
But, obi let me still keep thee
The same forever my girl of girls,
Forever girl for me.
Till my life is old, and my heart is cold,
Let me wear thee upon my breast,
And then let me find thee and claim thee
again
When wake from the grave'slong rest.

Mind is master that, ruthless, Stays its no
blest slaves;
Heart a loving savior, ador'd by ev'ry one ii
saves.
Mind is icy cold calculating, harsh and severe;
Heart tender and gentle, throbs but with hope
and fear.
Mind, on Fancy's wings, flies high as fame can
carry name;
Heart signs for love, abashd, blushing red
with modest shame.
Mind, In rich mental finds, knows a strange,
triumphant bliss;
Heart, ecstatic, trembics but beneath the low
er's kiss.
Mind strives in brilliance to outshine bright
ness of a star;
Hearts are all contentment when they deeply
loving are.
Mind seeks only knowledge wherever 1t may
be sought;
Heart learns not a lesson save by little Cupid
taught.
Mind boldly contemplates cen the very throne
of God:
Heart, submissive, bows subdued by womans
slightest nod.
Mind argues, that which is unknown, cannot
be, forsooth;
Heart, though unable to expound, rightly feels
the truth
Mind is ever worried with the politics of states;
Hearts are never anxious save for happiness OF
mates.
| Minds lust is eternal as the palpitating air;
Heart Oft is satisfied with a tress OF silken
hair.
| Mind doubts and scorns the happiness of weak,
/ joyous heart;
Heart laughs at and is bored by Minds sci
ence, lore and art
| Wind, sulen, reasons woe, darkness, hate come
from above;
| Heart's sweet heart beats thankful that God
gives light, JOY and love.
Mind, safe, traverses fathomless distances OF
space;
Heart, fatally entangled, trips in gauzy bits of
lace.
Mind goes castle building wherever 1t Can
roam;
neart, in hut, cottage or mansion, simply
Graves home.
Mind is brave and able, dashing, selfish and
conceited;
Heart is noble, loyal, gen'rous-my contrast il
completed!

were seen by "A sentinel, who gave the
alarm, and the work was stopped.
Soon after that the National guard q
Paris arose in instruction and threatened
to mob the Temple and release the prison
ers. The jailer was panic stricken, but
armed himself for the defense of his life
fully expecting that the mob would sacri-
fee him as n state official. The admiral
seized a pistol and declared that he was
ready to fight in defense of the prison.
The insurrectionists demanded admittance
to the Temple, but that being stoutly re

was allowed his freedom periodically by

rule, when a great prisoner went forth
from the Temple, except on a pardon, the
guillotine or worse awaited him. Two
friends disguised as officers of the republic
presented the bogus order and demanded
the person Of the admiral. Smith rallied
against the act as a fresh persecution of
his enemies. At the last moment an acct
dent nearly upset the plot, 1t happened
that a prison registrar was in the hall
when the party was about to leave the
Temple and he insisted that at least six
men of the prison guard must accompany

The Graves Equality.
One was king, and wide domain
He ruled, his sires had done;
A wooden howell, bed of pain,
Belonged TO the other one.
The king was ill, and the world was sad
But the monarch languished, the monarch
died,
The beggar was sick unto death, but he had
No one to watch at his low bedside.
Then under the minister the king was laid,
While DER him the marbles were piled;
But a shallow grave in the fields was made
BY careless hands for Poverty's child.
But now there are those who profanely declare,
II you opened the tomb and the grave,
You could not distinguish, whatever your care,
The dust OF the king und the slave.
