THE CANARY'S NEST.

Perhaps you would be interested
to hear about a pair of canary birds
l have. About a month ago l bought
a little canary to go with another
one I have. The lady from whom |
purchased it said it would lay in
about a week, and told me how to
make a nest for it. | put wad OF
cotton in one corner Of the cage,
made a nest for it and waited to see
what the bird would do. The first
thing she did was to take the cotton
bit by bit and put it in the nest. Then
one morning after the nest was COM
pleted l found a small green egg, the
next morning another, and so on until
there were four little eggs. But the
day after the four were laid the nest
fell down when the bird was sitting
on it and cracked the four eggs. I
felt very much discouraged, but
mother said that she would very
likely lay again, as the eggs did not
hatch. The other day l noticed that
she wanted to build a nest again, so
I gave her cotton as before, and yes
terday she laid little egg and to-
cay another, which made me very
happy. l have been very careful this
time to make the nest secure. l hope
| shall have better luck now.-Doro

Tribune.

TIGER MEDICINE.

The Maharaja OF Jammu had at
one time the distinction of possessing
the finest male tiger kept in captivity
anywhere in the world Mr.. Percival
Landon, in "Under the Sum-" describes
this beast, and tells a strangely inter
esting story, which he declares, is
strictly true, in regard to it.
The tiger, a glorious brute of white
and orange and black, with steel sin
eWS and teeth like Sikh daggers, lay
sulkily in his cage and growled. Ma
daun, the attendant, spoke to the til
ger, and as he did so the beast flung
himself furiously against the f1imsy
bars. The keeper put his slender
hand under his clothing and pulled
out little white bag.
Some years ago thetiger had found
that the little back door of his den
was open. The assistant of the little
menagerie returned to find him loose
in the garden and fed.
In half an hour Jammu's streets
were as those of dead city. No man
hindered the tiger, and he glided ST
lently down the main street of the
town, a beautiful vision of orange and
black striped death. He reached the
Jungle and vanished

CRUEJ, MISS SMITH.

There is a very common plant in
Australia known as the "black-boy, y
and here is funny story about it.
Two young American army officers
were visiting in a small Australian
town, and both happened to meet the
same young lady. They were talk
ing about her one evening and one
said to the other:
Il think Miss Smith is very sweet
girl"
"Oh, do you?" replied his brother.
SIT seems to me that she is terribly
cruel. Why, what do you suppose
she told me? She said she was riding
yesterday morning, and that she was
so much interested watching par
ade that she rode right over a little
black-boy and killed it! And when
I asked her if she didn't feel dread
fully about it she laughed and said:
oh, no; she didn't think it made any
difference; there were plenty more y

THE STAR FLOWER.

With very little attention the anna.
teur can rival the professional in
growing the aster. Like the poppy.
the aster is cosmopolite and grows
as we'll in frozen Siberia as in torrid
Morocco. The native asters of New
England were transpla nted into the
gardens of the Puritan housewives,
just as the settlers in Western Kan
sas transplanted the wild geraniums,
and well did both pay for the trouble
The aster is a real American. Of the
257 varieties grown in Europe, 176
are from America.
AS commonly grown, the aster of
the garden is shrubby plant, eight
cen inches high, branching in all di-
rections, and with fifteen to thirty
flowers, from the size of a dime to
that of half-dollar. The amateur
regards the huge asters of the florist
as quite beyond his skill. 1t is as
easy, however, to raise them large as
small, if the principle is borne in
mind that the fewer the flowers to the
plant, the larger and the better their
quality. By pinching Off the side buds
and branches, and leaving two, or at
most three buds at the top, flowers
from three to four inches in diam
eter are easily produced. There is an
aster from the Himalayas that grows
six to nine feet high, with flowers five
inches in diameter, and another from
Australia, which attains ten feet and
bears flowers with musky perfume

4 REAL NEST EGG.

would like to tell you how I
started with an egg as the only thing
in the world that l possessed and
made enough from it to buy myself
a beautiful Shetland pony and saddle.
| went to the country one day for
setting hen and a dozen eggs for my
mother to set. While there | went
on All errand for the farmer, and lie
gave me an egg of one OF his prize
hens. This I brought home and set
with the other eggs, and in three
weeks out came a chicken. [ washed
it every day and kept it in good con-
dition. When the poultry show
came around the man who gave me
the egg took n,:' chicken to the show
and it won a prize. Then man at
the show bought my chicken for $40.
with this money 1 bought four more

INSECT OGRES.
LADY LACE-WING.

I've fifty sons and daughters;
They're ogres every one;
They hunt and slay and eat and eat
From dawn till set Of sun.
Did you ever see lovelier creature
than 1, as 1 sail from bush to bush,
and gracefully alight to rest my
gauzy wings? Have Whit from my
scent bottle? Disagreeable? Why,
it's the best perfume in the world.
1t is as good as coat of mail, for no
bird or other insect will touch me so
long as it hangs about me.
See that collection of tiny pearl
headed pins sticking into those
leaves? You may not believe it, but
those are a few of my eggs. l find it
best to place each on a stem in order
that the children may not gobble each
other up the moment their egg shells
burst. With this wise arrangement
each child as ne emerges slides down
his pole to the leaf and goes off in
search of some aphides (plant lice)
which are his favorite article of food.

sire for food after I have donned my

An hour later Nadaun came back
to his work and heard the news. A
few minutes afterward another soli-
tary figure made it's way down the
still empty street. He had no wea-
pom. He had little white bag in his
hand, and was soon lost to sight in
the jungle.
An hour later he returned, bare
headed, in the sun. At his heels,
fawning and kittenish, slouched the
tiger, and round its neck was loosely
tied one end of Nadaun's white pu-
gree. 1t was the little white bag that
had done it.
would your honors like to see the
effect of this medicine?" Nadaun put
his hand into the bag and scattered
few whitish grains inside the bars.
In a moment the tiger was upon
them, searching out the tiniest bit Of
whatever it was. In fifteen seconds
he was on his back, beating the air
with his huge paws, like kitten at
play.
Nadaun very naturally refused to
allow us to look closely at the pow
der. 1t was his livelihood, he said,
and his secret, if our honors would
pardon him, must be kept.

MILDEW ON GRAPES.

Some seasons grapes are seriously
affected by mildew. The vines may
suffer severely one season and be en-
tirely exempt the next, owing to
difference in the weather. 1t has
been ascertained that mildew of the
most severe form and frequent oc-
currence on native grapes is caused
by an excess of moisture on the fol-
iage, chiefly because of heavy, con-,
tinual dew. Localities where heavy
dews are of less frequent occurrence
are most favorable for successful
grape culture.-Farmers Home Jour-

CHICKADEE

CHICKADEE.
Leaves are piling up the cutters,
Empty nests are swinging bare.
Song birds all have fled to southwark
From the nipping autumn air;
But | see, on the tree
Where some seeds are apt to be,
A merry little breal,faster
A-chirping "Chickadee!
He's jolly little fellow
In his sober black and gray;
And he halls the passing squirrels
With a call that seems to say,
"How-d'ye-do? w-dye-dee?
Oh, I'm very glad to see
All my friends so well and happy,
Very happy-Chickadee!"
He chuckles at the empty nest
A-swinging up so high,
He quirks his saucy, tufted head,
And gives merry cry:
"O-ho! The seasons over.
Summer guests have gone away
I'm not afraid of frosty nights.
I'm here and here to stay,
Chickadee! Chickadee-day--day.day!

THE DEADLY CROQUET.

1t seems strange that in q country
so cold as Northern Russia the spirit
of sport should not be more devel-
oped The tropics, even, adopt foot
ball, baseball and other athletic
games, but the land of the white bear
seems to hibernate under it's cover
ing of ice and snow. An article in
Chambers Journal speaks of this fact
and tells of the suspicion aroused, a
duction of an innocent form of diver
sion.
Unfortunately, the Russian school
boy has not the faintest knowledge
of the practice, even of the existence,
of football, cricket, fours, golf,
time is loafed away. He skates a
little in the winter if he lives near
the ice, but he will not go far for it.
In summer he walks up and down the
village street, plays cup and ball in
the garden, fishes a little, and lazies
tennis is slightly attempted, but not
really liked.
Many years ago, when I was a
schoolboy, l arrived from England to
spend a summer in Russia. I brought
with me box of croquet, game at
the time unknown by the Russians.
When the box was opened at the
custom house the authorities retreat
ed in horror at it's awe inspiring con-
tents. Bombs, mysterious weapons!
1t was an awful box.
l drew forth one of the bombs and
placed it on the floor, to the accom-
paniment of cries of CONSERVATION
and terror. I took one of the mallets
and to the inexpressible alarm of all
l began a little exhibition of the
game. As 1 could not use the hoops
on the floor. the custom house Off
cials grimly suspected them to be
boomerangs of novel description.
The box was seized and examined
got the croquet set after a. while,
but it bore marks of severe testing.

LINING.

Lime is just as essential in market
gardening and small fruit culture as
in general farming. Wherever a
legume enters into the system of
cropping it Is desirable to use lime.
The physical character of the heavier
types of soil may be greatly improved
by the use of lime, and it is espe-
cially important wherever clover is
used in the system of cropping. The
Importance of it's use is becoming
very generally recognized in the At
lantic coast trucking sections. 1t
has been shown recently that some of
the soils which have been cropped in
vegetables for many years are becom-
ing unproductive, and this is due not
only to lack of vegetable matter,
but to an increase of acidity, which
Is destructive to nearly all kinds of
vegetables. D. w. Hull, Waymart,
Pa, who is a successful grower of
celery, applies lime frequently to
muck soil in which this vegetable is
grown. He claims that with the lib
eral application of fertilizers, lime is
highly essential and that yields are
invariably diminished when lining is

A GOOD CATCH.

1t was a pleasant afternoon in
village in Western Nevada. A group
of young men were playing rough
game of ball in the middle of the
wide, sandy street, but the sidewalks
were almost deserted. This rendered
every passer-by conspicuous to the
motley crowds of Indians, Cinnamon,
cowboys, miners and other adventur-
ers that lounged in front of the shops
and barrooms of the main thorough
fare.
A tall young man and a dainty,
sweet-faced girl came out of the hotel
and took their way along the side
proclaiming them to be Fasteners
and "tenderfoots," for the young fell
low wore a silk hat and a long
"Prince Albert" coat with all the in
nocence imaginable, and his very
small mustache was distinctly curled
up at the ends.
The pair walked unconcernedly
along the street, the target of ev-
cry eye, but all unconscious of Great
ing a sensation, for the crowd, on &C
count of the sweet-faced girl, en-
deavored to suppress something of its
deep and heartfelt disapproval of her
companions dress and appearance.
Suddenly one of the players in the
street, husky young cowboy, gave
the ball tremendous swing; it acci-
dentally slipped from his grasp and
went straight for the pretty girls
face.
The player gave cry of horror,
the crowd gasped and caught its
breath. In all instant all would be
over with the pretty girl. But quick
as thought her escort sprang forward,
threw out his left hand, deftly caught
the "red-hot" ball not foot from her
face, and lightly tossed it back to the
player.
There was moment of daZed 81
lence; then from every motley group
all up and down the street came a
burst of hearty, spontaneous ap-
plause. Loud and long it continued.
The young man lifted his hat, the
pretty girl, the color rushing back to
her cheeks, smiled and waved her
handkerchief, and as they disap-
peared from view down the dusty
roadway, the tall hat and the long
tailed coat were freely forgiven.
