Wisdom in Remembering Anniversa.
ries of the Family.
The happiest households are those
that do not let die out the sentiment
connected with various anniversaries.
Although gift giving or recognition OF
such events in a suitable way may be
out of the question owing to the
strained circumstances Of those with
in the gates" there can yet be a little
air of festivity when mothers or IA
theirs birthday m round or some
wedding anniversary is to be celebra-
ted, says the Brooklyn Times. An *
ira dish. a little bunch of flowers or
no.He special music prepared for the
occasion will show the kindly spirit
and the loving remembrance that
count far more than the money value
Of any gift. AS the children grow up
if these festivities are encouraged
they will have much to look forward
to and much more to remember in the
years to come when they go out to do
battle with the world AID find that
sentiment is crushed under foot and
affection is regarded only as a side

The Crows In Winter.

Crows are not nearly so numerous
In the winter, in northern New York
and in places equally cold, as they are
in summer, says st. Nicholas. Yet
many of them gain a living by picking
up the grains of corn that have fallen
from the freight cars and been, scat
tered along the track. And since they
cannot long exist without water, they
also find much food on the river banks
and along the spring runs when the
snow is deep. No other bird will bet
ter reward close observation, the
study of his language alone being an
endless source of amusement and in
struction. Crows are among the earli-
est birds to build. They lay their
dark green eggs before the last snow
has fallen.

Distinguished Actors Swung Their,
Swords to Good Effect.
David Higgins recalls an amusing
story of Lawrence Barrett and John
Mccullough when they were starring
together in the west. The manager of
some out of the way place in Colorado
got them to play an engagement with
him for lone night only" The stage
of the theater was so small that there
was hardly standing room for the COM
pany, the flies being about two feet
above the actors heads. The bill was
Richard Ill.," and by the time they
came to the last scene the patience Of
both Mccullough and Barrett was *
hausted. But they had their revenge.
Just before they rushed on for the
"wind-up' between Richard and Rich
mond, Mccullough, who was playing
Richard, turned to Barrett.
"How in thunder are we going to
swing our swords in that space?" he
asked.
Never mind" replied Barrett, "cut
the scenery down." And they did.
They went at each other with a ven
geance, and with every blow made a
cash in the flies or cut a piece out of
one of the wings. When the fight was
finished and the victorious Richmond
stood over his PROSTATE foe, the flies
above him hung in ribbons and the
wings were total wrecks.

White Rainbows.

A fine rain and a strong sun are
necessary for the formation of white
rainbows. The phenomenon is due to
the optical principle known as inter-
ference. If the drops of water be
very small, the interference of the
rays causes such a complete overlap
ping of the colors that the bow ap-
pears white. The various prismatic
colors, instead of being thrown out
separately, as in the ordinary prism,
are thrown one on top of the other,
and the light is cast by the sun on
4 sheet of rain. This result is still
more noticeable where a fog takes
the place of the rain.

the fact that MI. Crawford was the

much to remind you in 'Pendennis' of
old talks and faces-of William John
O'Connell, Jack Sheehan and Andrew

PRJUNE TREES.

New York Nal: 1t is common de-
lusion that "the time to prune trees"
is the budding and blossomingf spring.
time But it is a murderous dclusion.
This. is, exactly the time when trees
should not be pruned. The sap is rush
ing up from the ground through the
trunks and branches and to prune them
is to bleed the trees numerically. Not
only does it deplete their energies but
it leaves the trees in the worst pos
sble condition to recover from the
wound which the saw or ak inflicts.
The time TO prune trees is in late
autumn or In the frozen winter, when
the wood is, driest and the condition Of
the trees most nearly dormant. If
5uperAuous branches are then sawed
off as closely as possible to. the trunk
and the stump painted with coal tar or
grating wax no harm but rather good,
is likely to, result to the tree. ....
