A QUARREL ENDED.

She looked at him with quick surprise,
She looked at him with tear brimmed eyes,
Her tight closed hand no motion shaped,
No word her curling lips escaped.
His eyes were bright, his voice was clear;
"He only said, ~ love you, dearl"
Her eyes were deep with anger's hue,
They softened into tender blue.
The naughty curve her lip forsook.
Her hand lay open on her book.
Then as he spoke he drew more near
And said again, 81 love you, dearl'
Where sweet love dwells wrath cannot stay;
Her smiles chased all the tears away.
She looked at him: "Ah, do not fear.
], too can say, Il love you, dear!'"
His smile replied, "Our hearts are near"
His words were still, 81 love you, dear!"
All, when the fire of anger burns
And all lifes sweet to bitter turns,
When eyes are flashing, lips close set,
Prepared to storm and to regret,
Then happy we if Greatheart near
Have strength to say, 81 love you. dear!"

Moistening and Soaking Feed.

Three experiment stations have re.
ported comparisons of dry with wet or
soaked food for pigs. The food consisted
of shelled coin in one case, of mixture
of cornmeal and shorts in another and
of a mixture of cornmeal, shorts and
linseed meal in third. In every case
the pigs ate more Of the wet food and
made larger gains Oh it. The additional
gain was usually due to the larger
amount of food eaten when moistened or
soaked.
The Kansas station has reported an
experiment in soaking corn for steers.
The shelled corn for one lot Give steers)
was soaked until it began to soften, and
that for the other lot Give steers) was
fed dry. From Nov. to April the lot
on soaked corn ate 282 bushels of corn
and gained 1862 pounds, while the
other lot ute 900 bushels of corn and
gained only 1,468 pounds-a difference
of 164 pounds. Owing to their better
condition the steers fed soaked corn
brought higher price, giving balance
of $25. so i'll favor of soaking. The con-
clusion is that it will pay to soak corn
for steers if it can be done for cents
bushel. Soaking wheat for pigs is quite
generally recommended.

THE STORY OF 10.

One day shepherd wandered through
the forest till he came to stream that
cut of his footsteps from farther travel.
The trees were in full leaf, and the
banks Of the stream were soft with fresh,
green grass, on which the sun shone
with warmth and brilliancy so great
that flowers had sprung up, decking the
green with many colored patterns.
So inviting did the spot appear that
after glance around the shepherd threw
himself down, and leaning against a
tree he began softly to sing a sweet
melody.
He was not an ordinary looking man.
More indeed was he like god than
mortal. His massive head was heavy
with thick, lionlike locks, which over
hung broad, wonderful brow. His eyes
were bright and piercing, but of no dis
tinctive color, and his form and stature
were glorious to look upon, for he had
the strength of Hercules combined
with the beauty Of an Apollo.
And indeed he was not mortal, for it
was the great Jupiter himself, who had
disguised himself as a simple shepherd,
and who now lay beside the water.
While he sang suddenly slight COM
motion Of the waters was visible. Bub-
BILE after bubble rose, till fountain
seemed springing from the middle of the
stream. And while Jupiter looked the
water took on human form, and a fair
maiden stepped lightly to the shore and
saluted the monarch of heaven and
earth.
It was the nymph To, daughter of the
river god Inachus. She was very beauti-
full, and her garments of woven sea
weeds. dashed with spray and inter
twined with colored shells, shone and
glistened as the sunlight played over
them. Her long hair fell about her like
golden shower, and she was so very
lovely to look upon that it is no wonder
Jupiter was pleased.
Now, it happened that while Jupiter
was sitting on the bank of the stream
that day Juno, his queen, was looking
down upon the earth from Olympus, and
seeing him there she made up her mind
to join him. They did not get along
with each other very we'll, and juno
was in constant fear that she might lose
her power and her place be filed by an
other queen.
So she mounted her chariot, drawn
by eight brilliant peacocks, and was
soon beside her lord. To her surprise she
saw standing near him beautiful heif-
or, to which he spoke gentle words
now and then. Suspecting some mis-
chief, she asked Jupiter to what herd
the heifer belonged, and he answered
that it belonged to no herd, but was a
fresh creation from the earth.
CITIZEN give it to me" said Juno.
Jupiter would have refused, but he
did not care to provoke the queens an
ger by denying so simple request, and
he give her the heifer.
Now, this heifer was 10, Jupiter hav-
ing turned her into that form as he saw
Juno approach, hoping thus to quiet the
fears that his queen was subject to. In

form was changed. Pan found that his
arms encircled tuft Of reeds by the
stream, and as he sighed. soft and sweet
music breathed through the hollow
stalks. With a Cry of joy he then said:
"'Thus at least you shall be mine,
beautiful Syrinx. And cutting the reeds
he followed and dried them, and fasten-
ing them together of different lengths
produced this instrument which he
named in honor of the lost nymph.
While Mercury was still talking he
saw Argus bow his head. All Of his
hundred eyes were sleeping. With one
stroke Mercury cut off his head, which
rolled down the rocks with tremendous
crash. Then 10 was set free.
But Juno was not content with tcat
revenge She first honored the faithful
Argus by placing his watchful eyes in
the tails of her peacocks, where to this
day they may be seen. Then she sent
gadhy to torment 10, who, to escape it,
fed over the whole world. The Ionian
sea, through which she passed, was
named for her.
At last, worn out and exhausted, she
reached the banks Of the Nile, and Ju
piter in pity begged Juno to give her
back her form. This the goddess did,
and 10 was restored to Inachus and her
sisters, young and beautiful to look up

Natures Kitchens.
In Iceland to cook food in the geysers
is a regular portion of the tourist pro-
gramme. Tea is infused with water
from the Great geyser, and trout are
boiled in the Blesi, Or hot water pond,
which suddenly ceased to erupt after
the Skaptar- Jokull CONFUSION Of 1884.
They require to be immersed for about
90 minutes to be cooked to a turn.
In the Yellowstone story is told Of
a fisherman, who, having caught fine
trout, merely turned on his heel, and,
without taking his captive off the line,
plunged it into a pool of hot water,
from which in a short time he drew it
ready for his meal, reminding US of
Lord Lovat, the Jacobite rebel, who,
when luncheon time approached. betook
himself to fall on his estate famous
for it's leaping salmon, and placed a
caldron of boiling water in such po'
sition that a fish missing it's spring
would tumble into the pot, -Exchange.
Diversified Duties.
There was an old colored man who
was general factotum at certain sum-
mer hotel. Whoever rose early in the
morning was certain to find him among
the flowers, and his cheerful "Good
mawnin, sah," was by no means the
least pleasant thing about very pleas
ant establishment. However, people are
very seldom hired for the simple task of
saying GOOD morning." and the old
mans duties as gardener did not appear
to be particularly onerous, Moved by
curiosity as to what else he might have
to do, one of the guests paused in his
morning walk to question him.
"Well, uncle,' said he after some
general skirmishing, "and what do you
do besides taking care of the fowers?'
"Waal," responded the old man
thoughtfully, " sides takin keer of the
flowers I cleans out the furnaces and
blacks the gemman' s boots and makes
the ice cream. sab. "-Boston Budget.
