BRUSH FOR KINDLING.
1t Makes Excellent Wood for the
Cooking Stove and Should Be
Carefully Saved.

In pruning orchards the branches cut
out are often piled in heaps and when
dried are burned, often injuring the
trees in their vicinity. There is much
better way than this. Apple, pear or
peach wood makes, when dried, a very
hot fire, and should be saved for the
stove when the branches are too large
to cut readily. Even the twigs have
their value. They make the very best
of kindlings when dried, and if they are
somewhat crooked they are all the bet
ter, because they will not pack closely
together as the straight sticks are pref
ty sure to- do. An old story is told of a
farmer who once boosted among his
companions what a good, patient wife
he had. She never complained of any
thing he did. One of them suggested
that the next time he drew up wood
for the house, he should make load of
the crookedest sticks he could find.
He did so, and as he drew up the load
to the house his wife came out smiling
to meet him. ''Mary, how do you like
this load of wood?' was the inquiry,
while the farmers companions stood by
expecting storm of abuse. Instead
the reply was given in the sweetest
tones: "Oh John! that is capital wood.
We always used it at home when was
girl, and mother used to say that the
rounded pieces made the hottest fire
| because they fitted so nicely around the
kettle. "-American Cultivator.

; WANTED PAUL TO TELL.
A Tipsy Wayfarer Who Is Familiar
with the Scriptures Asks
Question.

A man of the North side saw masculine
on the sidewalk the other evening, hopeless
ly intoxicated. Disguised at the sight, he
was about to pass on unheedful Of his neigh
boris misfortune when the story of the good
Samaritan flashed across his mind and he
resolved for once to be charitably helpful.
He accosted the fallen one and assisted him
to his unsteady feet, and after much per-
sistent interviewing succeeded in ascertain
ing the number of his home. Thither he
piloted his swaying companion and was re-
warded on the doorstep by volley of
thanks and most importunate invitation
to enter and take drink.
NO." responded the modern Samaritan,
emphatically. 81 won't go in and take a
drink, and you'd better follow my example
and get to bed as quickly as you can
'All right, guess / will" muttered the
tipsy host, drowsily. "But tell me your
