The Dogs Tail.

A prominent citizen was on trial
charged with harboring vicious dog.
The attorney for the defense had
been consulting a dog expert and had
learned that if dog holds his tail up
over his back when he barks he is not
angry, while if he holds it straight out
behind him he is in belligerent, blood
thirsty frame Of mind. Anxious to air
his newly acquired information, the
lawyer began cross questioning the
prosecuting witness thus:
'''Now, did you notice the position in
which this dogs tail was held when he
came at your

The Democracy of Death.

In the democracy of the dead all men
at last are equal. There is neither
rank nor station nor prerogative in the
republic of the grave. At this fatal
threshold the philosopher ceases to be
wise and the song of the poet is silent
Dives relinquishes his millions, LaZa-
rus his rags. The poor man is as rich
as the richest, and the rich man is as
poor as the pauper. The creditor loses
his usury, and the debtor is acquitted
Of his obligation. There the proud
man surrenders his dignities, the poll
tician his honors, the wording his
pleasures; the invalid needs no physi-
clan, and the laborer rests from unre-
Quilted toll.
Here at last is natures final decree
in equity The wrongs of time are re-
dressed, injustice is expiated, the irony
of fate is refuted, the unequal distribu-
ton Of wealth, honor, capacity, pleas
ure and opportunity, which make life
so cruel and inexplicable, ceases in the
realm of death. The strongest there
has no supremacy, and the weakest
needs no defense. The mightiest cap
tain succumbs to that invincible adj
Versary, who disarms alike victor and
the vanquished.-John J. ingalls,.

A Predicament Reversed.

''The late Bishop Fowler" said a
Buffalo Methodist, was a broad mind
ed man. Bigotry he abhorred. Creed,
he claimed, should never hedge one
good Christian from another. Sincere
creeds. no matter how diverse, should
on the contrary. bind Christians to-
gether
Bishop Fowler used to tell about
young Detroit couple, John Smith and
Hannah Jones'
''!ohn Smith was Presbyterian.
Hannah Jones was a Baptist. They
hesitated about marrying because they
feared that in later life, when the lit
tie ones came. religious disputes might
arise Thus the years passed. Neither
vo;1IJ renounce his or her church. John
Smith grew bald and Hannah Jones
developed lines about her mouth and
eyes. 1t was complete deadlock, the
world said.
"Then John was sent abroad for a
year by his firm to buy fancy goods.
He and Hannah correspondent regular
ly. Toward the years end by re-
markable coincidence each received
from the other a letter, the two let
tiers crossing in the mail. They said:
Friend John-The obstacles that stood
in the way of our marriage have at last
been removed. This day I was received
in full membership in the Presbyterian
church. HANNAH.
Dearest Hannah-We have no longer
any ground for delaying our union fur
Their. I united myself this day with the
Baptist church. JOHN.

DEAR HANDS.

Roughened and worn with ceaseless toll
and care,
No perfumed grace, no dainty skill had
these.
They earned for whittier hands a jeweled
ease
And kept the scars unlovely for their
share.
Patient and slow, they had the will to
bear
The whole worlds burdens, but no power
to seize
The flying joys of life. the gifts that
please,
The gold and gems that others find SO
fair.
Dear hands,. where bridal jewel never
shone,
Wherein no lovers kiss was ever pressed,
Crossed in unwonted quiet on the breast
I see through tears your glory newly
won
The golden circlet Of life's work well
done,
Set with the shining pearl Of perfect rest.

FINE WHITE TURKEYS.

hens are kept in an inclosure during
the egg producing season. Barrels laid
on the side with straw placed in them
make good nests.
"After gathering them it is not best
to keep the eggs very long, but if there
is no suitable place to put them with
hen they should be turned at least
twice a week.
81 give seventeen eggs to turkey
hen. 1t is best if they can come off
while sitting to eat and dust as they
like They may also be busted with
good powder just before the young
turkeys come out. | take them from
the nest as soon as possible, all but
one, to be left with the mother, SO she
will not be uneasy. / keep them in
box in the house until they learn to
eat and walk. They soon learn to eat
bread moistened with sweet milk.
"The coops are then ready. These are
made of boards eight feet long, about
three feet high at the front and two
and a half inches in the rear, being
fitted with good cover; also boards
partly covering the bottom, with
door in each end. This, divided in the
which will turn the rain. l keep them
in the coop with the hen one day, then
turn them in a pen made of boards a
foot high The pen is about twenty
feet square Around this two feet OF
poultry wire is placed to keep the
mother in; also to keep the outside
chickens from getting to scalp the lit
tie ones.
"The coop opening in this pen makes
it easy to change them around. In this
way they get plenty of exercise and
will flourish if given cornmeal and
cheese made of sour milk four times
day with plenty of fresh water. Small
oyster shell is necessary. small bit
Of cayenne pepper mixed with the
cheese is a good stimulant.
"After keeping them in the pen about
two weeks they are getting anxious to
find larger fields. The White Hollands
will wander and hunt, but nearly al
ways come home in the evening. They
soon learn to go in the coop. This must
be kept very clean. After feeding they
are shut in and kept till the grass is
dry in the morning. Always keep them
in when it rains. They cannot run in
the wet until larger.
"When getting them ready for mar
ket a mixed feed of oats and corn is
good. Old corn is much better than
new"
yvav of controlling turkeys TO make
them stay in a field is very simple

BILE to turn the pigs out and let them
have an opportunity to take proper ex-
ercise and enjoy natural conditions as
nearly as possible. 1t is the plank
floor that causes soreness and lame
ness. If the pigs have access to good
pasture they may be fed on corn
alone, but if confined in small lot
they should be supplied with food
that contains more bone making con-
stituents than is supplied by corn, such
as wheat bran, oats, middlings, col

illustrate the lesson on the board. The
superintendent drew the path to heav-

man became larger and larger, and
finally when he arrived at the gate of
heaven he could not get In.
