Frog Egg CnrioaItiea.

Frogs eggs are laid before they really
become eggs in the true sense Of that
word. They are always laid under wa
ter, and when first deposited are covered
with a sort Of envelope in the shape of a
thin membrane. In this shape they are
very small, but as soon as they come in
contact with the water they rapidly alb
sorb that element, and in so doing go
through a queer transformation. The
thin membrane containing the little
seedlike eggs is quickly changed into
great Jumps of clear jellylike sub
stance, each section joined to the other,
the whole forming string from few
inches to several feet in length. On the
inside of each of these Jumps Of jelly
the eggs come to perfection, and in due
course of time add their quota to the
frog population of the world. st. Louis

Forage For Swine.

Next to alfalfa, sorghum is probably
the best green forage plant for hogs.
Wherever alfalfa grows, it is advised to
plant alfalfa along with sorghum for
hog pasture, As good authority as @. @.
Georgeson Of the Kansas station advises
having few acres in alfalfa for hog
pasture the greater part of the summer,
and in addition grow piece of cane,
cpltivating it as when growing for
sugar, and feed this in the fall to fat
tening hogs.

DIsposItion of the CornstaIks,

Whether stalks are to be cut and plow-
ed under or raked and burned is a
question every farmer must decide for
himself. If the land is "heavy" and
compact, and the corn crop was free
from insect pests, it will be wise to turn
under the stalks, as the mechanical con-
dition Of the soil will be improved, But
on the other hand, if the soil is already
light and mellow, and if chinch bugs
were abundant the previous summer, by
all means rake and burn the stalks.

Cabbare In ssedIInx Row..

A writer in Meehan's Monthly has
learned that cabbage sown in drills two
feet apart, without transplanting, and
afterward thinned out, stands heat and
dryness best. The cause is very simple.
The main root remains undisturbed and
gets its food from deeper regions than
those that were disturbed in transplant
ing. The heads Of those not moved are
as solid as the others.

Degenerate Tendencies of a Hat.

did you know that derby hat left
on the shelves two or three years would
assume a funnier shape than a fake
baseball player?" said Lisbon street
halter few days ago. well, it's so.
Here is hat. 1t has been on the shelf
three years. Look at it. Do you sup.
pose ever bought such bean-pot as
that? No man ever designed 1t. Look
at the brim, 1t isn't wider than the
back of your jack-knlfe. The fact is
that the hats are made under pres
sure and heat. Left to themselves they
distort along the lines Of pressure.
Sometimes the brim crawls up into the
crowns and sometimes the crowns
evaporate into the brims. I've seen an
old-fashioned flat-crowned, wide
trimmed hat so emphasize its peculiar
ity that in one year 1t became flatter
than an Aunt Jemima pancake and so
funny that it would break up a revival

Framed IN the Wall of a DOWntowE
ReEtauranE

Framed IN the Wall of a downtown
Restaurant
Two men entered a restaurant in the
vicinity Of Printing House square yes
terday and walked leisurely about, sur
veying the walls and the ceiling, says
the New York Recorder.
Seats here" said one of the walters
politely, at the same time indicating
two chairs which were in quiet part
Of the place, removed from the general
throng.
I'VE amt in any hurry" said one OF
the men, I'VE are just looking around" "
well" said the superintendent, who
happened to come along, there isn't
much time for anybody here to look
around; I am afraid you will have to
be served, or else make way for other
people,"
"But we want to look around" said
the first.
well, you can't look around" said
he, testify; this isn't picture gal
lery."
"Ah, jim" said one of the men, turn
ing to his companion, II knew it was
so-they don't want us to see it."
"Of course it's so" responded the
other, "and it's the funniest combina-
tion I ever saw. I've heard of the man
in Aesop's Fables blowing on his fin
gers to make them hot and blowing
on his soup to make it cold, but this
beats everything that ever heard. Oh,
for cathode rays to see what the artist
was thinking Of when he desig4ed these
curious things" and they both looked
at the walls and sighed and laughed
alternately.
Come" said the superintendent, nov
thoroughly aroused, you will have tt
get out of here; this isn't a variety

That's So" they answered in chorus;
1--WE took it for a restaurant but If
those aren't the funniest notices side
by side I ever did see I don't know
what to say"
What do you mean," said the super
intendent.
why, look there" said one, and he
pointed to two nicely framed notices
in conspicuous place on the wall. One
read: "Sin shall not have dominion
over you, for ye are not under the law
but under grace"
The other, which was Immediately
underneath, warned each customer to
Watch your hat and coat. The pro-
prietor will not be responsible for any
article stolen"
Come on, Jim," said he, "lets get
somewhere to be under the law am
as hungry as hawk but I can't read
the scriptures, eat square meal and
watch my hat and coat at the same
time. Pears to me they ought to take
down some one of those notices"
They marched out and the superin-
tendent, turning to one of his assistants,
said: "I declare, these men were right.
never saw the humor of the thing be-
FORE"
"Will take them down, sir?" said
the assistant.
Not at ALL" he answered. II think
it's the best joke of the season and a

Sand Is HealthfuI.

Some time ago when an item went
the rounds of the press about the large
number of bow-legged children in Gin
cinnati it was suggested that sand piles
should be provided for children to play
in. The sand-pile idea has been
adopted, not only for the bow-legged
children but for all the little tots, and
promises to be carried to a novel eX-
tent. Many of the school yards have
now in one corner large piles Of sand
in which the little tots roll and play
to their hearts content. Care Is taken
to provide clean sand secured from one
of the bars in the Ohio river, and 1t iS
charged often enough to make it per-
fectly healthful. 1t is declared to be
the best thing possible for children to
play in, and some doctors have ad.
vised the making Of mud pies
as a regular prescription for puny
youngsters. They say that there Is
nothing like contact with Mother
Earth, and that if the children do moi
get healthful sand or dirt to play in
they will wallow in the gutter or yards
and be contaminated with all sorts Of
disease germs. City Legislator John
Regan has gone further and has in
troduced an ordinance in the city coun.
Gil to shut the worthless element ouI
Of Sth street or Garfield park and give
1t over to the children. He proposes ia
have sand piled in the corners of the
parks and let the children play all they
want. Mr.. Regan, who is well known
in New York, says that this should
certainly be done.-New York Journal
