LIFE PATHS.

It's q wonderful world were In. my dear,
A wonderful world, they say,
And blest they be who may wander free
Wherever a wish might stray,
who spread their sails to the arctic gales,
Or bask In the tropics bowers,
While we must keep to the footpath steep
In this workaday life of ours.
For smooth is the road for the few, my dear,
And wide are the ways they roam;
Our feet are led where the million tread,
In the worn, old lanes of home.
And the years may flow for veal or woe,
And the frost may follow the flowers.
Our steps are bound to the selfsame round
In this workaday life of ours.
But narrow our path may be, my dear,
And simple the scenes we view,
A heart like thine and love like mine
VIII carry us bravely through.
With a happy song We'll trudge along.
And smile in the shine or showers,
And wen ease the pack on a brothers back
By this workaday life of ours.

CROPS IN ORCHARDS.
Don't Plant Any That Mature TheiI
Seeds During the Growing
Season of the Trees.

What crop can we grow in a young
orchard without injury to the trees?
was asked in an exchange and was an
swered thus by A. B. Wood: If you
have plenty of other ground on which
to grow cultivated crops, don't grow
anything but your trees and care for
them just the same as though they
were u corn crop instead. Many are
not so situa ted that they can devote
the entire land to trees, but must grow
something to pay for the use of the
ground till the trees yield fruit. Then
comes the question again: What can
l grow, then, which will not be in
furious to growth of my trees? In
one-half of my first peach orchard
set Strawberries the first year, and on
the other half | grew beans and sweet
corn. The trees on the first half near
ly died, though | cultivated and fer
tilted thoroughly, using unleached
ashes and rotted stable manure lib
orally; the other half grew nearly
double the size of the former in the
first two years, besides the trees were
much healthier.
IhIS tduBhI he hoI " gro" any
crop which matured it's seed during
the growing season of the trees. See
ing my mistake, though too late, i'm
mediately plowed under the berry
vines and devoted the ground entirely
to the trees. The result was surprising,
for the trees seemed to take new life
and made more growth the next sea-
son than in both the former ones
though they have never been able to
catch up with those where the beans
and corn grew.

PRESERVING EGGS.
The sulphur Process Here Described
Has Been Practiced with Com
siderable Success.

Take a common starch box with a
sliding lid. Put the eggs in the box
and upon an oyster shell or other suit
able substance place teaspoonful of
sulphur. Set fire to the sulphur aud
when the fumes begin to rise briskly
shut up the lid, make the box tight,
and do not disturb it for half an hour.
Now take out the eggs, pack in oats,
and the job is done. If the oats or pack
ing material be treated to the same
process it will be all the better. If a
barrelful is to be preserved, place the
eggs in a tight barrel two-thirds full,
with no packing whatever. Fire
pound of sulphur upon a suitable sub
stance on top of the eggs in the vacant
space over them, shut up tightly, let
stand an hour and then take out the
eggs. AS the gas is much heavier than
air it will sink to the bottom, or rather
fill up the barrel with the fumes. In
another barrel or box place some oats,
and treat in the same way. Now pack
the eggs in the oats, head up the barrel,
and turn the barrel every day to pre-
vent falling of the yolks, using each
end alternately, and they will keep
year, or, according to the efficiency of
the operation, a shorter or longer
time.
1t will be seen by the above that the
process is dry and neat one, and very
inexpensive, sulphur being a very
cheap article. The process was sold
several years ago by certain parties as
Ozone" but is an old one, and the par
ties were exposed. not that the process
was a fraud, but because they sold
pound of sulphur as ozone for two dol
lars.-Poultry Keeper.

"Dead-ay, sure enough he's dead,

but he died bad, did Flint!"
"Ay, and that he did," observed an
other; now he ragged, and now he hol-

We started, certainly; but in spite Of

the pirates no longer ran separate

kept side by side, and spoke with bated

HIS FRENCH MAID.
Albert Gets Her Into Serious Row
with the HousegirI.

A youngster who is the only son of in
dulgent parents living in Avondale has
a French maid, whose business it is to
talk to him in French at all times. In
fact, she has to, as her knowledge is linn
tied when it comes to speaking English.
The boy, though only seven, is as full
of mischief as young calf and he
knows enough to know that he can fool
the maid in more ways than one. He is
something of a practical joker, too.
At lunchtime one day the maid was
up a stump in regard to asking for salt.
She needed it in her soup, and to the
housegirl she couldn't make her wants
known. Turning to Albert. sbs said:
lie sci, Albair, lie sell"
Turning to the housemafd Albert
said in English: "Oh, the old parley
VOC wants some sugar Give it to her"
Sh- got the sugar in one Of the silver
boxes or dredges used for that condi-
ment and dredged her soup in the APP
proved French way and with decided
disregard for the quantity she was
using. Then when she tasted the
mawky mess she broke out in a French
TRADE and wanted to whip the house
girl. That is, it sounded like that, with
her "Sacres" and mon Deus"
"Oh, but she's cussing you," said AL
bert to the housegirl. 'I'd tell mamma.
L wouldn't let any old foreigner talk
that way to me-"
whats she saying?"
"Oh, dam and other cuss words that
are a heap worse"
Then the housegirl got back good
and strong and told her she'd slap her
in the mouth, and Albert had to do the
interpreting. Of course he got things
little worse than they really were and
poured oil on the flames. Both went to
his mother, but when Albert explained
his part in the row he was the one who
got the scolding.-Cincinnati CONNER

ow-and struggled, one after another
to the beach, where the two gigs await
ed us. Even these bore trace of the
drunken folly of the pirates, one in a
broken thwart, and both in their mud
died, unbailed condition. Both were to
be carried along with us, for the sake OF
safety; and so, with our numbers di-
vided between them, we set forth upon
the bosom of the anchorage.
AS we pulled over there was some
discussion on the chart. The red cross
was, of course, far too large to be a
guide; and the terms of the note on the
back, as you will hear, admitted of
some ambiguity. They ran, the reader
may remember, thus:
Tall tree, Spy-glass shoulder, bearing
point to the N. of N. N. f.
Skeleton Island, f. S. f. and by e.
Ten feet"
A tall tree was thus the principal
mark. Now, right before us, the an
chorage was bounded by plateau from
two to three hundred feet high, ad dioin-
ing on the north the sloping southern
shoulder of the Spy-glass, and rising
again toward the south into the rough,
cliffy eminence called the Mizzen-mast
Hill. The top of the plateau was dotted
thickly with pine trees of varying
height. Every here and there, one of a
different species rose forty or fifty feet
clear above its neighbors, and which OF
these was the particular tall tree" of
Capt. Flint could only be decided on the
spot, and by readings of the compass.
Yet, although that was the case,
every man on board the boats had
picked a favorite of his own ere we
were halfway over, Long John alone
struggling his shoulders and bidding
them wait till they were there.
We pulled easily by Silvers direc-
lions, not to weary the hands prema-
turely; and, after quite long passage,
landed at the mouth of the second
river-that which runs down a woody
cleft of the Spy-glass. Thence, bend
ing to our left, we began to ascend the
slope toward the plateau.
At the first outset, heavy, miry
ground and matted, marsh vegeta-
ton greatly delayed our progress;
but by little and little the hill began to
steepen and become stony undsrfoot,
and the wood to change it's character
and to grow in more open order. 1t
was, il iced, most pleasant portion of
the island that we were now approach
ing. A heavy-scented bloom and many
Towering shrubs had almost taken the
place of grass. Thickets of green nut
meg trees were dotted here and there
with the red columns and the broad
shadow of the pines; and the first min
gled their spice with the aroma of the
others. The air, besides, was fresh and
stirring, and this, under the sheer sun
beams, was a wonderful refreshment
to our senses.
The party spread itself abroad, in a
fan shape, shouting and leaping to and

fro. About the center, and good
way behind the rest, Silver and fol-
lowed-I tethered by my rope, he plow-
ing, with deep pants, among the slid
ing gravel. From time to time, in
deed, | had to lend him hand, or he
must have missed his footing and fallen
backward down the hill
We had thus proceeded for about
half mile, and were approaching the
brow of the plateau, when the man
upon the furthest left began to cry
aloud, as if in terror. Shout after
shout came from him, and the others
began to run in his direction.
HE can't have found the treasure"
said old Morgan, huErying past us
from the right, "for that's clean atop"
Indeed, as we found when we also
reached the spot, it was something
very different. At the foot of pretty
big pine, and involved in green
creeper, which had even partly lifted
some of the smaller bones, a human
skeleton lay, with few shreds of cloth
ing, on the ground. l believe a chill
struck for a moment to every heart.
He was seaman" said George
Merry, who, bolder than the rest, had
gone up close, and was examining the
rags of clothing. 'Leastways, this is
good sea-cloth."
GAY, ay," said Silver, like enough;
you wouldn't look to find bishop here,
| reckon. But what sort of way is
that for bones to lie? 'Tain't in
natur'
Indeed, on second glance, it seemed
impossible to fancy that the body was
in a natural position. But for some
disarray (the work, perhaps of the
birds that had fed upon him, or of the
slowgrowing creeper that had grad
ually enveloped his remains) the man
lay perfectly straight-his feet point
ing in one direction, his hands, raised
above his head like divers, pointing
directly in the opposite.
''I've taken a notion into my old
numskull," observed Silver. Here's
the compass; there's the tip-top pint
of Skeleton island, stickin' out like n
tooth. just take a bearing, will you,
along the line of them bones.'
1t was done. THE body pointed
straight in the direction of the island,
and the compass read duly L. S. E. by E.

wren's Vim dicatIon,

When Sir Christopher Wren was
building the town hall of Windsor, q
fidgety member of the corporation-so
the story goes-insisted that the roof
required further support, and desired
the architect to add more pillars. In
vain did Sir Christopher assure him
that the danger was imaginary-he
knew better. The alarm spread, and
the great architect was worried into
adding the desired columns. Years
passed, and in later times, when archi-
tect and patron were dead, cleaning
operations in the roof revealed the fact
that the supposed additional supports
did not touch the roof by two inches,
though this was not perceptible to any
one below. By this ingenious expedient
die Sir Christopher pacify his critics,
while vindicating his own architectural
skill to future generations.-Leisu

A statement was made in Rutland last
week of much interest to citizens of Ver-
mont. 1t is that the Rutland railroad is
contemplating and seriously considering
the advisabihty of extending its line
northward from Burlington.to connect
with the Canada Atlantic and possibly
with the Ogdensburgh and Lake Cham
plain railroad. The statement was made
upon good authority that steps in this
direction have already been taken. This
extension would be an action of much
significance in railroad circles. A
through connection would be established
between Boston and points along the
Canada Atlantic and If this connection
was made with the OgdeDsburg road the
connecting points in that direction would
be sources of large revenue. In this
time of railroad excitement the story Is
an interesting One.-Free Press.
