THE FISHERMAN'S HOME.

Where the salt sea-grass is growing
On the marshes by the shore,
Where the wild, wet wind is blowing
And the breakers froth and roar.
Meath the cliff beside the landing.
Nestled snugly In the lee
There's a little cottage standing
That is home, sweet home" to me.
From its hearth the freight, rosy.
Tints the room with rudy hue,
And the little table. cozy,
Cleans and sparkles. spread for two.
Chuckling, chatting. bubbling, prating,
Drones the kettle in its glee.
And a little woman. waiting,
Has a welcome kiss for me.
Fen the ftful freight fingers
On her fair and winsome face,
At the magic OF her fingers
Sweet contentment foods the place.
And her happy laugh is telling
OF a soul from sorrow free,
For it's love that rules the dwelling
Where she works and waits for me.
Though the toll be hard and dreary
And the catch be few and light,
Still the thought OF her shall cheer me
AS / beach my boat at night.
And while yet my heart Is beating,
On the land or on the sea,
Where my darling gives me greeting
Shall be home. sweet home" TO me.

London's woman Auctioneer.

The new woman is making her way
slowly but surely into all the profess
sions and into every field of work. The
latest novelty in London, says the
Sketch, is lady auctioneer. Not that
Miss Ada Hammond is at all a novice
at the work: she has been an auctioneer
for nine years. Born in Cheltenham,
she held sales in provincial towns in
many parts of the country, but her late
sale at MIDDLETON hall was her first
in London. Miss Hammond is full of
enthusiasm for her profession, in which
she has met with great success.

Among the wilder tribes of the eau

dagger almost as soon as he can walk.
The children first learn to stab water

to the chamber, expands and again

Fancy Hog Prices.

There is not the least doubt but hat
all the hogs now in existence which are
actually worth one thousand dollars

one hand. But prices have climbed up

gle G|4luaal. When we consider that
the final end of the porcine species is
simply to furnish a portion of the meat
supply for human consumption, and
that they multiply faster and mature
earlier than any of their competitors,
the absurdity of such prices can be
realized. 1t is nothing but speculation,
pure and simple. Within the past
month we heard one of the noted pro-
fessional fine stock auctioneers, in urg-
ing bidders to raise their bids on a
promising sow, inadvertently give ut
terance 10 the secret of many high
prices. He said: Don't be afraid to
bid. The more you pay for her the
more you can get for her pigs To be
strictly truthful he should have added,
If you can find the dupes.' While it
is true that all the best thoroughbreds
are high priced, it does not follow that
all high priced animals are the best of
their kind, or that their progeny will
have all the good points of the pa
rents."-American Swine Breeder.
