made of cork. Next, take the skinner
and plate in one hand and lay the edge
of the plate on the edge of the decanter,
and then with the other hand connect
the ladle with the skinner and hold
them until you find the exact position in
which they will balance each other. The
first time you try to do this trick it is
quite probable that you will fail, and in
that case your audience will be much
amused at seeing skinner, ladle and
plate come down with a rush on the in
nocent decanter. After a few trials,
however, you will become an adept at
the trick and it will then be your turn to
laugh at those who doubted your abili-
ty to perform tn. Y. Herald.

cat Has Strange Family.

Mrs Lee Kaufman, who lives near
Lyndon, Kan, has cat that is rearing
a rather strange family. Some time ago,
while Mrs. Kaufman was in the yard,
she heard a squealing and commotioD
coming from large hole in the ground
which was close by. She was afraid tc
put her hand in the hole and investigate
the cause of the sounds, and, when the
men came from the fields at noon, she
called their attention to the occurrence.
They procured spades and dug into the
hole, unearthing mother coon in her
nest with three tiny ones about day
old. The old coon escaped, and the little
ones, after being admired for some time,
were given to the cat to deyour, which
was licking its chops near by, as if hun
cry for the little fellows. The cat
smelled them, and then began licking
their little bodies, afterward hunting
bed for herself, to which she took the
little coons and adopted them. One of
them died. but the other two are living
and will soon be larger than their foster
mother.

A prisoner in Siberia lately sent t.
czar a gift in the shape of large hazel
nut, inside of which is a miniature
chessboard, with all the pieces complete,
carved out of ivory. The prisoner had
worked at this little gem in his leisure
hours for more than year. The czar
was so pleased that he desired to know
for what the man had been sent to ST.
IBERIA, and it is expected that Ieprievs
will be granted to him.

frogs in the sandstone eighty feet be-

the frogs were found is a mixture of

WASHING TREES.

Every tree in an orchard should be
washed at least twice a year with
strong scapsuds, but there will be no
necessity for scraplng them. The cater
pillars should be destroyed as soon as
the nests are seen, which will end large
numbers of insects at once. As the
insects multiply with amazing rapidity,
the escape of a single pair means thou
sands next season. One of the best rs.
sistants to the orchard Is the little
wren. If farmers will give him proper
protection by constructing boxes with
entrances so small that no bird but a
wren can enter, the sparrow will be
unable to drive it away. AS the wren
Is an active and busy creature, It de-
stroys a large number of insects in
very short time, and as it increases
rapidly under favorable circumstances,
may be secured and induced to remain
In the orchard If proper facilities are
afforded for their protection and &c.
commodation.
