She Was of Full Age.

The zeal which some women display
in attempting to hide their age is
often worthy Of better cause, for is
not a woman just as old as she looks
And it is useless being twenty If she
looks thirty, as 1t is ridiculous TO re-
fuse to acknowledge she is thirty if she
looks only twenty
Only the other day an intimate friend
Of the writer was married She was
grown up when the writer was little
girl so that she had reached that age
when woman Is said to be taken
down from the shelf and busted before
her husband saw her. The mortal
fear OF that woman at the idea of his
discovering exactly how old she was
would have been ludicrous If it had
not been so pathetic.
Even when it came TO the signing Of
tile certificate she would not put down
the actual figures, and she went to n
lawyer relative to ask whether If, in
signing the certificate, she put full
age" it would not be sufficient. His
decision that it would be all right
seemed to give her q great deal Of
relief, and that was the way in which
she filed up the blank.-New York

The Goldfish.

There is scarcely fish in the whole
hnny kingdom that is more useful to
man than the cod AS an article OF
diet, whether fresh or salted and dried,
il is a most important addition to our
food supplies, and is made use OF in
various ways for the support of man
and beast over a widely extended area
The tongue is regarded as delicacy
the swimming bladder furnishes isin-
glass almost equal to that OF the stur-
geon, and the liver gives us the oil
which is so much recommended as a
tonic and food in all wasting com
plants.
The Norwegians give Gods head

landers give the bones to their cattle,

them, and in icy wastes they are fre-
quently dried and used as fuel
The cod is prolific enough to admit
OF this extensive use, for one fish will
produce nine million eggs.

LlIacs I'm Autumn.

To produce lilac blossoms in autumn
is a wonderful achievement, considering
how peculiarly they are associated with
the spring time, and the way in which
it is accomplished is most curious and
interesting. In state OF nature the
lilac plant requires a period OF rest be.
fore producing its flowers. That period
is the winter. when the cold enforces
repose. But it is found that the plant
can be cheated into blossoming in au-
tumn by exposing it to the fumes OF
ether which put it to sleep for little
while after which it proceeds to bios
som luxuriantly. Florists grow the
plants in pots, and in the fall place
Them, pots and all, in large box which
contains an uncorked bottle OF ether.
In this manner they are exposed to the
ether vapor for forty eigh; hours, the
box being air-tight; and sometimes the
operation is repeated a few days later.
When they come out they are ready tc
start right in at blossoming and the
glass gardener obtains a fine crop oil
Iiacs for the early winter trade. The
process sometimes weakens the colors
OF the flowers. but this does not matter
in the case OF lilacs, because the kind
preferred by florists is the white,

IN THE FARM HOUSE.

Indoors the city man misses all that
made the farm house museum of
treasures The sewing machine has
usurped the place of the erstwhile
spinning wheel. the brick oven has
given place to the portable range, and
the old blue churn has made way for
the patent device which lacks every
element Of romance or Of interest. If
he goes to the milking not even the
hired girl goes with him. He finds
farm hand performing the operation
by artlficially induced vacuum and
pouring the warm milk in a whirligig
spiraster, where that is removed from
it which gives him an uneasy sensation
in the region OF the abdominal dia.

infancy, he was wont TO drink the

vacation visits to the homestead of his

GATHERING THE CROPS.

When the crop is ready for gathering
mechanism is seen at its best. The
perfection of the modern reaper and

which occurred this year in Illinois.
A farmer had driven his reaper into

and dismounted from his seat to get
drink.
While thus occupied the horses took
fright at something and ran away
They tore round and round the field

twine and tossing the bundles to one
side. Before the team was caught it

gone over. This was accomplished in
