A STORY OF MILLAIs.

The story Of the late John NIL

correspondent of the London

words: II found myself seated one
evening at rather grand dinner
next to a very pretty gushing girl,
to whom / had not been introduc-
ed. She fred into conversation
directly she had finished her soup,
and as it was May, began with the
inevitable question: 81 suppose

I replied that [ had. "And did
YOU notice the Millais Didn't you
think they were awful danbs? l

Nv in the same strain, while | sat
silent, whom suddenly the amused
smile of those around her and the
significant hush brought her to a
Sudden stop. She colored rather
painfully and whispered to NE in a
frightened voice, "For heavens
sake, what have 1 done ? Have |

me- Not now,' I replied; 'eat your
dinner in peace and | will tell you

miserably, vainly try ing-to extract
from me at intervals what the

FROGS TO BE FARMED.

| The United States fish eammis7
sion Just fsaw is investigating tht
suhi-ov Of frog faeming. It is be
lieved that III re ought to be money
in the business. considering the
large demand for the hind lsss a.
high prices, says the New York
Journal The principal aaArk he. for
them is in New York pi'y where
they ape gathered from MI parts of
the country, Fulton market alone
selling from 10000 to 100000 lbs
annually. The frog crop at present
is wholly wild and the bulk OF. it
is marketed in New York. Mis-
souri, is the greatest frog pro lucing
state, the town of Kennett alone
ships 10000 pounds of dressed frog
legs annually and New Madrid i,
second with $4,000 pounds. The
experts of the fish commission say
that the plant required for a frog
farm is exceedingly simple and
cheap. Shallow ponds Lay be
found almoat anywhere, and they
need no preparation, unless the
planting of bushes around te edges.
Frogs feed mainly on insects; the
reason why they bite at bit CT
red flannel is that they mistake it
for gaudy bug. It is a good idea
to build a low board fence around
the ponl in order to keep out the
snakes and small mammals that
are fond of frogs. The fence close
to the water so that birds cannot
stand on the inside OF it and pick
up the pollywoss. Naturally the
first thing to do is to secure some
frogs for breeding. Any old frogs
will moi do. Some people imagine
that a frog is frog and that is all
there is to be said. But there are
IN fact, a good many species of
frogs and the real bullfrog is the
kind whose large and muscular
hind legs are SO esteemod'as a DEL
