GREATEST BABE LIVING.
Unique Daily Life OF the Infant Heir
to Great Britain's Throne.

TIE greatest baby in the world is
row about one year old. The name
Of this baby is Edward. He IS His
ROYAL Highness the Primo Edward OF
York, heir to the throne Of an empire
on which the sun never sets, AMI ne IS
now cutting his teeth.
His Royal Highness lives either at
York House, St. James, London, or at
White Lodge, seat of the Tecks. A
description of his personal appearance
is now on file in the royal archives OF
the Tower of London, and he has been
photographed 100 times. These de-
tails are not trifeE. They are a part
OF the history of the British Empire.
The Prince has blue eyes. His halr
is not scanty by any means, and he Is
rather fat, as will be seen from the &C.
companyin.y picture Of him: which IS
the one hundred and ninth OF His
Royal Hlghness, and the very --latest.
He has nursery OF the most severely
plain character, and, although ms
little life is one long uninterrupted
ceremony, etiquette requires that toe
plainest of baby accessories shall sur
round him. He is under the trtelago
Of one Nine. Buika. whom all England
knows az the confidential companion
OF the Princess May before her mar.
rage. This Mile. Buika has naturally
an enormous responsibility,
His Royal Highness is already e
General. Colonel, a High Snerlf and
patron. He is Keeper of the Seals
and an Imperial Usher. He is already
entitled to put u. G. N. j., G. &. l. S,
I. and ever so many other letters after
his name, and he is memoer OF the
House OF Lords
When the baby avakes in the morn
ing he holds levee. Toe royal code
says SO. His aignness will be attend
ed By the lady n waiting, who takes
his commands. This means that she
will wash and dress him. 1!e must
never have anything On lin that IS
rcd-anythin4, that IS, il tue shape OF
clothing. His attire must be lnvarla'
bly, white. This is BECAUSE he is
Prince Of York, and there IS royal
rnle connected with the Wars OF the
Rose, that forbids his assumption OF
the red until be is five years old. ne
may not wear black shoes until be is
three, and in public sash must IN
rariably be around his waist. Under
no circumstances IS he to be addressed,
even playfully, by anyone except his
parents. Queen Victor: a herself Is not
at liberty to say styou" to him. 1t
must always be "His Highness seems
WE'LL" or s'Gis Highness sleeps" In
fact, it is His Highness this and His
Hiehuess that all the time. : 1865,
Only blood relative may hold him
in her arms, with the exception OF
Mile. Buika, who has received royal
patent Tor the purpose. Even the
physician who attends him must re-
celve royal patent before beginning
to physic this babe. Every article Of.
attire he wears must bear the royal
arms worked by hand in silk, ana ne
may not wear the same article twice
in succession. It must be washed be-
fore it goes on again.

COWS WITH AN EAR FOB MUSIC.

An English writer has published
some curious observations on the effects
of musical sounds on ANIMALS. \ fe"
or those relating ~ Oxen and cows
will be Of interest.
"Opposite to our house was large
field in which twelve COWS were put
during the summer months. One day
German blnd began to. play on the
road which divided the house from
the field.
"The COWS were quietly grazing at
the other end of the field, but no
sooner did they hear the music than
they at once advanced toward it and
stood with their heads over the wall
attentively listening.
"This might have passed uuno:iced.
but, upon the musicians going away,
tie animals followed them as we'll as
they could on the other side Of the
wall, and, when they could get no fur
thcr, stood lowing riteonsly.
50 excited did the COWS becom,
that some Of theln ran round the field
to try and get out; but finding no
outlet, returned to the same corner
where they had lost sight of the band,
aid it was some time before they
seemed satisfied that the sweet sounds
were really gone.
"I have often noticed tbs power
music has over oxen. The other day
We had brass band playing in our
garden. In field adjoinging were
four oxen.
"Wlen the band struck up they
were at the far end Of O nine-acrs
field, quite out Of sight, the field
being very uneven. They set of full
trot to the garden wall, put their
necks over anu remained So till the
tune was flushed, when they went
back TO Craze; but, as soon as the
mrsic struck up again they came aud
put their beads u1r2 more over the
wall This we:lt ou till the band left,
after which they ate little ali day and
were continually lowing.
''Thers are many anecdotes that SHOW
that tie OK or COW has musical ear.

AGRICULTURAL PLANTS.

Some ants keep slaves, we are told,
and others keep COWS, or substitute
Tor COWS. Others still make busl-
ness, of raising mushrooms. These last
are the leaf-cutting ants, so-called.
They live in tropical America, and are
very destructive. They have been
known to ruin whole plantations OF
orange and lemon trees.
They cut circular pieces out OF the
leaves and carry them of to their
mounds. What they do with then,
was long question. but Miller, who
studied these ants in Brazil, and Belt.
who studied them in Nicaragua. haVs
ascartainel that the leaves are not
used for food, but as manure on. which
to grow minute species Of fungus.
in other word;, these leaf-cuttlng ante
cultivate mushrooms.
They arc described as taking the ut
most paius to keep the mounds neither
too dry nor TOO damp. Sometimes
the inexperienced bring in grass and
unsuitable leaves, but these are in
variably carried out and throw away.
When th- cham ,ers get flied with
leaves that have been. cxhaus.e,l as

fresh leaves are gathered.
