1t was a pitchers battle between
Everson aud Willis with honors

two runs on two hits and two err

London,s Sewer Hunters.

The London sewer hunter before
commencing operations provides him
self with a bullseye lantern, canvas
apron and pole some seven or eight
feet in length, having an iron attach
ment at one end somewhat in the
shape of a hoe. For greater conven-
ience the lantern is invariably fixed to
the right shoulder, so that when walk
ing the light is thrown ahead and
when STOPPING its rays shine directly
to their feet. Thus accOutered they
walk slowly along through the mud,
feeling with their naked feet for any
thing unusual at the same time rak-
ing the accumulation from the walls
and picking from the crevices any ar
ticle they see.
Nothing is allowed to escape them.

The Chinese Way.

In its war with England and France
in 1S59-G0 China was easily conquered
and forced to a humiliating peace.
The Peking Gazette, the official organ
OF the government, however, reported
the following concerning that treaty of
peace:
"As the western barbarians have ad-
mitted their wrongs and humbly so
licited for peace the emperor in his
infinite goodness has granted their
prayer and. moreover, has made them
a present Of a large sum of money Gn-
demnity of war; to enable them to be-
gin an honest life, so that they may
not again be driven to murder and
rapine."

An Old welsh Custom.

The kindling of bonfres on hills is
the simplest of celebrations at any
time. The Druids made four great
fires at their festivals in February,
May, August and November. Wales
seems to have been a country espe-
cially tenacious of this custom. Each
family used to make its own fire, and
as it was dying out each member
would throw a white stone into it, the
stones being marked for future iden-
tificatiOn. Then all said their pray
ers and went to bed, and in the morn
ing they tried to find all the stones
again. If any stone was missing, it
betokened that the owner of it would
die within a year.
Some superstitions are pretty and
picturesque and attractive; this was
one of the many which were cruel as
well as picturesque 1t would take but
a slight accident to cause n fright that
might be actually dangerous to a SUI
perstitiOus person, and it would not
be hard for an enemy of such per
son to cause that fright by stealing
his stone from the fire.

POULTRY POINTERS.

Pure water is more essential than
clean grass.
Even though turkeys are good for
ayers it viii not pay TO let them go
without proper feeding.
Everything in the rearing of young
poultry depends upon their care and
management at least until well feath-
cred.
Fowls inclined to fatten too easily
are not good layers The flesh they
carry makes them lazy, and this never
promotes laying.
AIiddlings make good food for poul-
try. but if wet up alone it is too sticky.
The better plan is TO mix with bran
or corn and wet with milk or scalding
water.
Whitewash is better than paint on
the poultry houses for the reason that
it costs less and has a purifying inhu-
ence- 1t may be applied as often as
once a month to advantage.
The properties Of sunhower seed are
peculiar, and a small quantity fed at
the proper time will essentially aid In
imparting to the plumage Of adult
fowls a gloss that no other grain viii
produce.
