loop. The third diagram shows the tangle
thus formed. and it IS such a thorough
tangle that to pull the two ends of the
string would make hard aud complicat-
ed knot. But the end ::'A'' of the cord is
now brought up over the outside of the
first loop, and is carried down through the
second loop, coming out in the same ,lirec-
ton with the end "B." Now, by taking
hold of the two ends of the cord and pull
ing them, the cord may he drawn out
perfectly straight, the knots disappearing.
The performance may be made more mys-
tifying by asking spectator to hold both
ends of the cord, while the operator, con-
cea'ing the knotted portion IN his hands,
rubs the knots out. leaving the spectator
in possession of a smooth and unbroken
string. Possibly the spectator may follow
the whole operation so closely as to be
able to perform it himself on the first
trial, but he will be apt to make a mis-
take i'll forming the second loop and re-
verse the twist shown in the second dia-
gram. In that case he will succeed only
in tying a knot that will be difficult to
unite after the attempt is made to pull
the cord straight,-NeW York Recorder

Hired Farm HELM.

There is as much difference in en-
ployers as there is in hired men, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. One kind hires any
thing i'll the shape of a man that he can
get; he does not care what nationality 50
long as he can hire him cheap. Then he
goes around telling everyone that there
is no money III farming because he can
not get help that he can trust. If you go
to that mans farm land you will not have
any trouble to tell which it isl, you will
md that he tries to work his men from
early till late. gives them anything to
cat that comes handy. does not care where
they sleep so long us they are on hand in
the morning, does not give them any time
for themselves for reading or improving
themselves: in fact, he is one of the kind
that thinks anything is good enough for
the hired men," Well, as soon as his
back is turned they take Il recess, or try
t." do as little as possible and keep their
job.
Un the other hand. we have the farmer
who thinks his men arc human beings
He is particular what kind of men he
hires, pays good, fair wages, has his reg,l-
lar hours for work, gives them plenty of
good, wholesome food, comfortable place
to sleep; treats them rs men, at the same
time giving them to understand that he is
boss. 90 not mean to say that all
men who draw good pay or have had
lifelong experience OH the farm are good
nelp, Tor there are poor sticks in this
heap as we'll rs in any other. You could
give some men lifetime on farm, and
II they do not have a liking to it and
nave natural tact for the business, they
would be very Improbable help.
The Best Cow.
II. 2. Powell. at recent PENNSYLVANIA
Institute. said that to find the best COW
one must put pair of scales in the stable
and weigh every cows milk for at least
year and weed out the poor cows; enter
each cows name on a big sheet Of PAPER
ruled into columns, and enter each day
each cows weight of milk. You will find
many surprises cow you thought the
best may prove to be among the DOort ST.
One COW i'll his stable he thought his best,
the scales told him cost him 30 cents for
each pound of butter while a poorer COW.
rs he supposed. made him butter ut cost

different cows, showing most astonishing
differences III the product of diffcrt s,t
cows
The scales are simple and sure test
and worth everything to Il man who real
ly wants his dairy to pay. Don't let Il

twenty not paying.
A COW should give at least 5000 to TO-
600 pounds Of milk Il year, and 800 to 400
pounds Of butter
There is splendid opportunity to ruiz
in debt for farm and make money by
1aising good cows, for there will always
be a gre..t demand at big prices, say 500
for big producers.
Select cows of the dairy tyne and

Drunkenness in the Navv.

National pride tells us that drunken
ness in the navy must not be tolerated.
An officer in his cups on or off duty is
inexcusable. Commander Croker has
been lenicntly dealt with. The most fla
grant case of drunkenness in an officer
that l ever saw occurred at Annapolis
several years ago. Half the population
of the city were at the wharf to witness
the sailing of a United States vessel.
The hour for departure was 4 o'clock,
but the gong in the engine room was
not rung till 4:3O. Nobody ashore could
understand the delay till young man in
the uniform of lieutenant was seen to
emerge from the throng with unsteady
gait. The lines had been cast off, the
gangway hauled aboard and the ships
side was now about ten feet from shore.
The officer of the deck ordered a plank
out, but the lieutenant was positively
unable to walk it. He attempted it sew
eral times, only to%fail Gradually the
vessel swung around till the plank no
longer reached, then it was hauled in
and the ship steamed away. l never
saw a man feel his disgrace more keen
ly. He sank down IN state of utter
collapse, turning his flushed face from his
brother officers, who looked sorrowfully
and stolidly upon him from the quarter
deck. He caught the ship at Fortress
Monroe. went on board sober and has
not touched u drop of liquor since.-New

The Boy Professor.

A special to the Detroit News from
Albion says that Latin students were
placed in very humiliating position
the other day." Prof. Evaun fell and
broke a rib and was unable to attend
classes. The professor has son of II
summers who is taking work in the
preparatory school. When the Ovid
class met there was considerable curl
osity rs to who would take charge of it.
Great was the surprise when, at the
stroke of the last bell, this rosy checked
lad, who is small for his age, stepped
upon the rostrum, took the professors
chair and proceeded to call the roll, with
the deliberate composure of veteran.
When he had" finished he quietly re-
marked that his father was unable to he
present and had requested h;g to take
charge. He asked full explaha lions of
the knotty constructions, which one or
two upper classmen were unable to give,
and much to their embarrassment were
set right by the 13-year-old professor.
It is said the boy converses freely in the
tongue of the Caesars with his father.
