By JOHN WALKER HARRINGTON.

Gray Mouse and White Rabbit lived
under the floor of the barn and were very
happy. The only thing which ever both
cred them was Small Dog. They hated
Small Dog worse than poison.
Poison always stays in one place,
said Gray Mouse, but Small Dog is al
ways jumping and digging. II he stays
around this barn We might as Well 90
away. Why. the other day he chased me
right up 10 my front door, and IL ] had
not been quick with my latchkey ] am
afraid he would have jostled me very
rudelyP'
Then Gray Mouse stopped talking and
nearly jumped out OF his skin. White
Rabbit raised his ears and made his whis
kers tremble. Right over their heads
they heard a noise like thunder. Gray
Mouse and White Rabbit ran up under
the manger and peeped out. There they
saw something which looked ike a big
barrel placed on four piano legs. II had
a long pipe in front OF il, four or five
times bigger than the garden-hose. and
this big pipe was swinging backward and
forward
What's thatT' asked White Rabbit
resting his paw on Gray Mouse's arm.
1T looks TO me-" answered Gray Mouse
"lfke an animal which the man has In
the parIor Of his house. at least his legs
look like those Of that poor beast The
mans daughter boxes the creatures ears

though he cries and cries she viii not

You do not know very much" whis-
persd White Rabbit. Il heard the man
say one morning that his little girl was
pounding the plano in the parior, and this
thing is not piano at al"
Just then the creature winked his little
eyes ard made its big ears so flop. flop.

He caught hold OF Gray Mouse and
pushed him tight through the hole under
the manger. Gray Mouse fell on the
ground in front OF the strange animal.

were armed with knives only. while We
had eutIasses. No firearms were used.
The fellows made good stand for about
FIVE minutes, and then We began driving

there were thirty dead ones on our decks.
OF course, the row was heard In the
cabin. At the first sound Capt. Walters
laid his revolver on the table before him
and said TO Chee-Wing-su:

going on above. but we viii not interfere

pirate.
Your men are all right. and you will
remain right here
They heard the sounds OF battle and
knew that the Cinnamon were being
driven overheard, but the captain talked
, about the voyage and the profits and pre-
tended ignorance Of the real state Of az
fairs. When the fight had ended sas an
ch0P vas lifted and the clipper sailed
away out OF the harbor. chee-Wing-Sa

A Peculiar Iinl,.

Shooting and Fishing is responsible
for the following story:
There was man once who believed
habit governed everything, and so one
day when he caught n fish he thought
ho would make an experiment to prove
his theory. He put the fish In tub Of
water, and every day he would 20
there and put in n spadcful OF dirt
making the fish less and less accus.
toned 10 its native element Finally
the tub was full of dirt, but by that
time the fish was SO accustomed TO dirt
that II was not only still alive, but very
vigorous. by and by the fish had got
so in the habit OF being out Of water
that IL spent its time Topping around
the yard and about the house and slept
in a box on the porch, IL grew very
fond of its master, and when he went
out would follow him, fopping along
the street and attracting cverybody's
attention The fish followed him SO
much that the man began TO get tired
of il. and tied the fish up at the house
to keep IL from Hopping along behind
him. one day he started out from
home and had gone good ways when
he heard the fish Hopping behind him.
At last ne came TO creek over which
was n foot log. and the fish Topped
upon Il and started over. When IL got
middleways IL fopped overheard, ant
was drowned.

Octagon Poultry House.

The oCtagon form has advantages.
1t is strong, compact and affords Il
arger area in proportion TO the amount
Of outside wall than rcctanglc. The
timbcrs, being short. may be light.
Moreover, it can catch more winter
sunshine.
The area Of the poultry house repre-
scntcd by the accompanying ground
plan is BOB square feet This is little
more than that of a rectangular house
ten by thirty feet. The sides being
eight feet each, the total outside Inca!
measurement is siXty.four feet, where
rs that of the rectangular house is
eighty feet. With three windows, as

A Chinese Mode of Revenge.

Frequently person In China
avengcs himself by defaclng pre-
sumed tomb Of his rival, or some tree
connected with the spot. This effect
ually breaks the luck of that person or
family. A man convicted Of attempt
Ing TO break fung-shway Is severely
punished, rs II Is one Of the gravost
crimes of which person can be ac-
cused
Fung shwuy keeps many corpse
from being buried for years. and the
whole family In n perpetual whirlpool.
The place of honor Is on the left side
of the tomb, and Is intended for the
first son, the nearest place on the right
IL for the second son, and so on. Now
the position on the left may not be so
propitous ms the one on the right, and
SO there is perpetual quarrels between
the two sons as to which each shall
occupy. One Is as desirous of secur-
ing n certain place as another is OPP
posed to IL. One person may Insist on
having the burial postponed for GER
tain period because the year of the
Chinese scXngcnary cycle conflicts
with his horoscope. Sometimes the
burial does not take place for the rea.
son that that particular year is one in
which II would not be advisable to
build a tomb fronting in certain di-
rcction. there is no trouble In keep
ing the corpse unburicd for an indef-
mite period, as 1t is safely slowed away
in an hermctically sealed coffin.

A Rich soil Tor CauIIfower

One can hardly make the soil too
rich for caulinowers, and | would adj
wise an application Of fifty To 100 tons
Of stable manure per acre according
to the condition OF the soil. This
should be plOwed in, the land finely
pulverizcd and furrOwcd. ! set the
plants In rows two and One-half feet
apart, and eighteen inches apart in
the row. cultivate frequently until
the plants are about half grown; then
/ place n mulch of manure between
the rows, and irrigate by pouring the
water on the mulch with hose. The
water Is pumped from a brook near
by into n large tank, which is elevated
so as TO carry the water over all parts
Of the garden. The water IS taken
from this tank, and distributed with
iron pipes and hose. When the heads
Of the caulinowers arc forming the
leaves should he tied around them, so
as To- blanch them perfectly white

land who have tested spraying for the
purpose OF destroying charlock or wild
mustard, sum up their opinions as fol-
lows, says the Farmers Advocate.
That charlOck can he destroyed in
growing crops, without injury to the
latter, by spraying with fifty gallons
twO-ppr-Cent solution 1.-TWO pounds In
ten gallons Of water) of pure sulphate
Of copper per acre; that the best time
10 apply this Is when the charlock is
young and from two inches to six
inches In height; that where charlock
Is destroyed the grain crops are Inn
proved. The principal causes OF fail
urc, ii is added, are spraying too late
using insufficient solution, and using
impure sulphatc Of copper. For the eff
fCCtual eradication of charlock q sec
Ond spraying is necessary about fort
night after the first, to catch plants
that come up after the first spraying
and those that somehow ESCAPED the
full dose of copper that was intended
for them. Far better results are oh

I'm crossing them, especially when the
grain gets high, rs each row acts as n
shcltcrinE wall to the charlock stand
ing behind IL. A horse with small
feet and a cart with narrow wheels do
least injury. As the grain that is
crushed is very susceptible TO the
spray, this point should not be over
looked.
