On WRITING TO NEWSPAPERS.
"Aunt Roxana" Has a Few Words OF Gem
miseration on the Authors.


Aunt RoxaHA Sheldon laid down the
monthly periodical which she had been
pcrusing and looked over her spectacles at
her niece, who set crocheting in the other
window. "Vandeely," she said, "where
do you suppose the folks that send these
questions to the housekeeper column in
this paper was brought up9'
81 don't know, I'm sure, Aunt Roxy, !"
replied the niece, with slight blush.
"Vandeely, said Miss Sheldon after an
other keen glance over her spectacles, "hev
you ever sent any scch eejot questions to
one O. them papers?"
"Oncc I dill, admitted Vandclia meek
"; "whcn / was first married an mother
had died But the answers didn't do me
much good couldn't get things was
told to where we lived"
81 presume to say not" said Miss Shell
don somewhat Modified. You'd ought
to have writ to me, but you wa MT well ac-
quaintcd with your husbands folks then,
an l s'posc you didn't feel to. Cyrus orter
have told you to send right on to me-
Why, there's q woman here wants to know
whatll kill ants, an keep 'em out of her
sugar bucket, an so on, an they've give
her II receipt that'd take me good long
spell to study out what with lie of one
thing an 'sperits' of another, an I mis-
trust 'twould be q useless mess when twas
put together. I've u notion to write to
that poor creatur myself, only don't know
who she is, exceptin that she's signed her
name Glover X I amt ever met with
many names begin with X outside of tho
dictionary, but it seems she's got of 'en.
An don't know how to get rid of antsr
II had considerable trouble with ants
myself, said Vandclia as Miss Sheldon
once more turned her searching gaze upon
her. "That was what wrote about"
"An you didn't know that q little piece
o. yallcr sulphur stick-or powder either
for the matter of that-would send every
one O them little plaques out into the sand
ascin?" calculated Miss Sheldon. IAN like
as not you didn't know that dough would
lictch rats that wouldn't pay no attention
to cheese nor meat. An presume to say
you never hecrd that a tcaspoonful O. corn
starch in a box o. salt would keep it from
cakin up in Jumps. An more'n likely you-
But there" Miss Sheldon broke off abrupt
ly, "you're a real well meanin girl, an
l shall feel to be easier ON the folks that
ask them questions after this, seeing rs
my own niece by marriage has been one of
'em. But l don't see what Cyrus was
thinkin of-not but what you're good
girl-but l don't see what he was think
in of when he offered himself. But then,"
concluded Miss Sheldon, "men's minds are
made up In sech queer way that the real
important things, like ants an rats an so
on, don't seem to weigh with 'em hardly n
mite when they come to gettin married, an
Cyrus was jest like all the rest, presume
to say. youths Companion.

Scientific Amusement.

The new ball fire nozzle, which is Great
ing a sensation because the ball apparently
defies the laws of nature by remaining I'M
moved when powerful stream of water is
directed against it, recalls the old and
amusing experiment of "the obstinate
cork"
Take wine bottle and cork OF size
considerably smaller than its mouth (say
the cork of medicine viaD. Place the cork
inst within the neck of the bottle, held
horizontally, and invite any one to drive
it into the bottle by blowing it in. The
thing seems simple enough. The expert
mentalist blows with all the power of his
lungs, but the cork, instead of being driv-
en- into the bottle flies out in his face, and
the more smartly he blows the more Wig
orous will be its exit.
The explanation Of this unlocked for
phenomenon is given as follows by a
French scientist: When the experimenter
blows upon the cork, certain quantity OF
air is at the same time forced into the bot
tie and is compressed\with so much ener-
CIV that it forms an elastic cushion behind
the cork, which, pressing against such

Accounts, Gile, Purinton, Springfield !;

Concerning Birthdays.

The memory of man goeth not back t.
the time when there were not some believ
ers in the old rhyme:
Mondays child is fair in the face,
Tuesdays child is full Of grace,
Wednesdays child is merry and glad,
Thursdays child is sorry and sad,
Fridays child is free and giving,
Saturdays child must work for living,
Sundays child will never want.
Equally old are the lines:
First a daughter, then a son,
And the world Is well begun;
First a son and then a daughter,
And trouble follows ever after.

What the Birds Say.

The negro is close observer Of nature
as rule. Every animal he endows with
human attributes. The rabbit, fox and
squirrel and all the finny tribe arc made
to play part in story and song, and the
birds are not sighted.
Here are some sentiments which, tho
New Orleans Timcs-Democrat says, are
put into the mouths, or rather the beaks,
of our feather friends by their sable inter
prefers.
Sometimes the owls boot from tree to
tree across the swamp roads:
In the new house,
Who-who-who's
In the old?
They call to each other from their perches
in the mighty oaks and tupelo gums,
where yellow jasmine and rattan vines
twinc so thickly as to make almost a
jungle, and they say:
! cook
For my folks,
And who-who-who
Cooks for y all?
The partridge whistles shrilly through
the summer grasses:
Bob
Bobwhitei
Corn ripef
Not quite.
Dog bite?
Yes, at night.
The dove mourns, say the old black peo-
pie, for passing soul. They claim, too,
that the dove flies faster than does any
other bird.
The jay is said to carry souls downward
Why the pert little fellow has such an I'M
enviablc reputation is not known. This is
the song he is said to sing:
Away, away!
Done carried q soul
Down today.
Carry another
Tomorrow.

Things have been Oh the hustle at the
car barns of the Watcrville and Fairfield
Electric Railroad for the past few weeks,
getting the cars in shape for the summer
travel. With the coming of summer, all
the cars have to be changed over, the
motors being taken from under the closed
cars and put under the open ones Where
the cars are fitted, this is not a great task,
but this year there was new set of
motors to be adjusted, the set which was
purchased last fall and run on box car
No. during tho winter. The work of
fitting over the trucks of this set for car
No. has been very successfully performed

Reynolds has practically rebuilt the truck
frames, displaying a great deal of in
genuity in the work. These gentlemen
