An Amusing Egg Trick.

Here is trick that will amuse you.
Puncture the shell of raw egg with
a pin, and through the hole thus
made extract the contents. When the
shell has become dry, pour fine sand
through the pinhole until the egg is
about one-fourth filed. Then seal up
the hole with wax, and your imita-
tion egg will be as natural in appear
ance as real one. Then tell your
companions that you can make the
egg obey your slightest wish, stand
ing on the edge Of knife, the rim of
q glass, or whatever you will. OF
course, no one will believe you, but
you can. prove that you are right.
The only secret is to tap the egg
gently every time you change its posi-
tion, so that the sand will settle at
the bottom, and keep the egg upright
in just the position you wish.

Renewing Old Orchards.

There are many old orchards that
have not borne crop in may years,
which, with some care and manurinp
and pruning, might be made again
productive. These old orchards, so
long rs the trees are still sound and
healthy, are well worth caring for. In
most cases only mineral fertilizers will
be ne eeded. But these should be ap-
piled abundantly. The pruning re-
quired will mostly be on the inside OF
the tree, to let in sunlight and air. DO
not try to cut out the large limbs.
This will either weaken the tree too
much, or it will so divert the sap to
the rest of the tree as to induce too
large wood growth to the neglect Of
fruit.

A lady in Newton was drawing her
little girl on a sled, just after the
great snowstorm, through long, mar
row path to the schoolhouse, the snow
being thrown up very high on each
side Of the path, when she met mid
way large st. Bernard dog, q
stranger. She Immediately addressed
him as she would human being, ex-
planning that the path was narrow and
the snow deep, and that he must turn
around and go back. He listened
carefully to her explanation, then
wheeled about and walked back a con-
siderable distance, until he found
place where the snow had been
shovelled out little at the side. In
to this he backed, and waited quietly
until she passed him with the sled and
child. The lady thanked him for
being so much of a gentleman; and
he then wheeled about, and started
again on the path. Our Dumb Ami
