Collar of Honor for Noble Dogs.

In France there exists an order OF
merit foundered by the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, of
which the members are dogs who have
distinguished themselves by deeds of
bravery. A tastefully designed collar
of honor" is awarded to the nominee
of the order. Among the animals al
ready decorated in this way one of the
most celebrated is Bacchus, a large
bulldog, whose specially tits to stop
runaway horses by jumping up and
Selling them by the bride. Bacchus's
master resides in the Rhu Biscornet,
1t is calculated that the intelligent
beast has already saved the lives of
eight persons, ifnot more, in this way.
Pataud, another bulldog, received n
collar in 1887 for saving his mistress
from the attack of a footpad, and Turk,
q splendid Newfoundland, has had n
similar honor for saving three young
children from drowning on different
occasions. - Westminster Gazette.

Weather Bracelets,

The well known effect in lessening
or in increasing the temperature Of
the body by cooling or warming the
wrists has been applied by a Philadel-
phla woman in an ornamental way. In
winter she wears an ineh-wide strip of
asbestos, noted nonconductor of
heat, folded in gold embossed velvet
and buckled with jeweled loop. For
summer use her pulse coolers are
spheroids of rose quartz about an inch
in diameter, linked together with fill
gree silver, these possessing to Il mark
ed degree the quality of absorbing
cold. The woman claims proof against
suffering from weather variations while
thus braceleted.

Mary MagdaIene's Grave.

Fifteen thousand pilgrims annually
visit st. Baume, in Provence, not far
from Marseilles, where Mary Magda-
lene is said to have spent the last thirty
years of her life.
The legend, according to the Nouvelle
Revue, runs that Mary Magdalene came
from Judaa in small boat with Laza-
rus, Martha, the two Marys and Salome,
bringing with them the body of st. Anne,
the head of st. James the Less and O
few wee bones of the innocents massa-
cred by King Herod. But from early
ages this story has been disputed, and
the Able Duchesne, one of the most
erudite writer's on the early Christian
saints and martyrs, considers that the
relics of Mary Magdalene were proba-
bly, sent from Constantinople about the
seventh century. A Greek breviary,
however, speaks of the saint as having
died at Ephesus,-Ne,O York Recorder.

Developing Worn Out Soil.

If q man understands the methods
necessary to accomplish it, and has the
time and the capital to devote to that
purpose, there is n profit in buying
worn out lands Mt low price and
bringing them up to q state of pro
ductiveness at which they can be
cropped. One way Of helping run
down lands so that profitable crops can
be raised is by applying commercial
fertilizers. These, if properly used,
will very often materially increase the
growth and yield of crops, but it is
questionable if they add any appre-
ciable permanent fertility to the soil.
There is one way, however, by which
the use of this class of fertilizers can
be made an advantage, and that is by
increasing the yield of the crop for
which it is specially applied. A larger
amount of feed may thus be procured,
and this affords an opportunity for ma
king more manure, and the more animal
manure that can be procured the better
is the chance for the up-building of the
soil. Glover is one of the best materials
that can be used to improve the land,
and where this can be grown the soil
is not past redemption, but some soils
will not grow clover, 1t has become
so devoid of vegetable matter that the
clover plant will starve out, and in
this case either of two plans can be
followed-One is to use commercial
fertilizers, and the other is to seed to
rye and as soon as reasonably good
growthisprocured pillow under and SOW
to buckwheat 1t is not to be expected
that lands so poor that it will not
grow clover will have sufficient avail
able plant food to grow even a fair
crop Of rye, but the blowing in of
evan light growth will supply some
vegetable matter, and generally sufii-
cient to make crop of buckwheat
procure a fair growth Western

The ATVal Dinner.

The arval dinner appears to be al
ancient custom. This was properly q
solemn festival on the day Of interment
and when the corpse was exposed to
view. The relatives and friends were
invited to attend, so that having in
spected the body they might vouch
that the death was a natural one, and
thus exculpate the heir and all others
entitled to the deceNsed's possessions
from accusations Of having used VIC
lence. - Westminster Gazette.
