Aiexanders Homer.

Alexander the Great was so fond of Homer's poems. the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey." that he carried with him on his military campaigns an edition of them in which Aristotle had made notes and corrections After the battle of Ar bela q golden casket studded with costly Jewels was found in the tent of Darius the Persian commander. When Alex. ander was asked what should be done with it he answered. There is but one production in the world worthy of so rich q depository" and he placed i'll it his edition of Homer. That edition has ever since been called the Casket Ho- mer.

Portable Hog Houses.

The advantage of q number of small portable houses. each accommodating a few hogs. rather than one large pig cry for the entire herd, has been real ized by all breeders In districts where cholera is prevalent these are undoubt. edly the best shelters They make il more difficult to carry eontagion te all animals in the herd. and the destrue. tion of one of them in ease of an out break does not entail Il great expense An added advantage is that they may be moved from place 10 place as need ed While more work k necessary in feeding. the convenience and safety from their use more than offset this disadvantage

How Animals Work.

Man makes the tools with which he works, but God has made animals. birds and insects with natural tools. with which they do all sorts of won derful things.
 The woodpeeker has drill that he works in much the same way that q man drills hole in rock With his bill he drills into dead trees to get worms and insects for his supper.

 The elephant uses his long. strong tusks to dig up roots which he eats
 The hen uses her feet as man uses q spade. Philadelphia Ledger.

And let him feed my puppy too, And show him all the tricks We do. But when I told him so one day And asked him if we couldn't play Together right along If he Had only been boy like me He laughed and laughed and said he
 guessed
 Perhaps we'd like the old way best. For he could take me up to bed Or hold me on his krees he said I never thought of that somehow. And so I'm quite oontented now. For. though we'd have a splendid play. I want my grandpa anyway But that was most year ago, When l was small and didn't know He couldn't be boy like me And stay my grandpa, too. you see.
