KING AND THE BOZ.
Edward Broke Cake with u Little
CurIy-Headed Child.

CurIy-Headed Child.
King Edward, when az Marienbad,
taking the cure, was one day having
tea in the Cafe Bellevue Gardens with
a party of friends, says the Youths
Companion. a small boy, with bare
brown legs and head covered with
curls, was playing about in charge of
his nurse. He was attracted by the
kings smile, which comes readily for
children. and drew near the royal Ia
BILE
His majesty smiling offered him q
piece of cake, whereupon, becoming sud
denly shy, the little boy took to his
heels and scampered away.
The king laughed softly But as he
knows good deal about child nature
he placed the plate with the cake on
it invitingly near the edge of the la
bic. and presently Curly Head came
haltingly back. His majesty again ex-
tended the plate. This time the boy
took ii.
"Thanll you" said he.
The, king bowed with tie utmost
gravity.
Then. resting the plate on the kings
knees, The boy ate the cake with appe-
tite, even STOPPING scrupulously to pick
up and eat rather large crumb which
had fallen at his majesty's feet.
When the last crumb had disappear
ed he placed the plate on the table.
THANK your he said again.
Most welcome" returned the king,
holding out his hand.
The boy took it, quite unconscious
that he was shaking hands with Eng.
lands sovereign. and ran off to his en-
berrassed and Mortified nurse without
backward glance. But when the king
was leaving the gardens the boy spied
him. and remembered that he had brok-
en- bread with him. With all his lit
tie might he chased his majesty's re-
treating figure.
"Good-by - he painted. THE cake was
ine."
His majesty's hand rested for an In
'tant on the curly head.
''Good-by!" he said And those who
witnessed the little scene say that it
Was fathers and not a kings smile
that accompanied the words.

The ROsebush.

The ROscbush.
A Child sleeps under rose5ush fair,
The buds swell out in the soft May air
Sweetly it rests and on dream-wings flies
To play with the angels in Paradise.
And the years glide by.
\ Maiden stands by the rosebush fair,
The dewy blossoms perfume the air:
She presses her hand to her throbbine
breast,
With Loves first wonderful rapture blest
and the years glide by.
A Mother kneels by the rosebush fair.
Soft sigh the leaves in the evening air
Sorrowing thoughts of the past arise,
And tears of anguish bediIn her eyes,.
And the years glide by.
Naked and lone stands the rose5ush fair
Whirled are the leaves in the autumn air
Withered and dead they fall to the
ground,
And silently cover new-made mound.
And the years glide by.

Cuttings and Young Plants.

Cuttings can be started in pots of
sandy compost, with glass tumbler
over to confine the moisture, and kept
from the sun for two or three days.
Then place the pots in the warmest
window, exposed TO the southeast. Wet
sand is also excellent for growing cut
tlngs, and they will start quicker thar
in compost. A shallow pan is prefer
able; fill it up with sand (not sea
sand), sopping wet, then press in the
cuttings tightly and keep them wet.
When the leaves show themselves. in
two or three days, transplant into pots
filled with light, sandy loan. After
shading a day or two they may have
ample sunshine and sufficient water to
keep them moist. Cuttings taken from

Paints I'm Milking.

The well-known phenomenon Of mot
giving down" the milk is claimed 20 be
the result of lack of nervous tone In
the glands. brought about by some KIND
of excitement The udder is not 4
container in which the milk Is readily
stored up at milking time. but an organ
in which the greater part of the milk
Is elaborated while milking or sucking
is IN progress, by virtue of the agiti,-
ton produced. Unless the cow is in
perfect repose this secretion Will not
take place normally. The lesson To
he derived from this is that the COW
should he treated with the greatest gem
tleness, and otherwise kept free from
excitement, specially during the tiEe
of milking or sucking.

No crop should go into the ground
until the soil is warm enough TO GER
inmate the seed. Corn that begins to
grow. and is checked by cold rain on
cold soil, will be thrown back In
growth a week or two or perhaps more.
and it is therefore better to wait a few
days for the soil to become warm than
to lose more valuable time i'm growth
laser.- The warmth will depend upon
the depth and fineness of the soil and
its dryness. A well-plowed field that is
properly drained will become warm sew
eral days sooner than one which has
been nlowed in a careless manner. The
ali enters a porous soil and the heat
goes wherever the air can enter. III
the soil is fine the surplus water can
he more easily carried off. as it passes
down to the subsoil and reaches the
underdrain sooner, but il the moisture
remains near the surface, by reason Of
shallow blowing. the land will be cold
urtil the season opens very warm. at
which season corn should then be well
under way. The rule should be to plow
as early as the soil will permit and
keep the top soil loose with the har-
row. 1t is an old remark that no
farmer can harrow field too often.
1T may add to the expense or labor,
but the crop will be better enabled to
derive plant foods, moisture and
warmth. as the fine soil stores water
that would be lost in summer on hard
soils. and gives it to the plants when
1t Is most required.
