carried so far and worshipped so de-
votedly by the connisseurs OF Europe
! and America The one popularity that
we notice about the vines is that in
! most cases they do not grow on the
level ground, in ordinary fields where
cultivation is easy, and the soil appar-
emily rich. But on the bare sides of
the hills where the sun strikes most
readily, but where the soil to all APP
appearances is unfertile. The vineyards
on these hillsideS are arranged IN ter
races: we see them rising tier above
tier to almost inaccessible heights where
no other farm product could be grown.
A successful vintage means q great
deal to the vine dreSserS of the district,
indeed in some cases it may mean ev-
erything in the way of prosperity Thus
great care is taken to ensure the pro-
lection of the vines and the proper in
gathering of the grapes. Before the
vintage, the vineyards are closed. by
order of the authorities. There are
really two 'tclosings' of the vineyards
"a "small" one which forbids children
and strangers to enter the vineyards
and demands that the vine dresser put
the finishing touches to his work, and
then there is the ''large closing, which
begins usually between the middle and
end of August, according to the adj
vancement of the grapes. Then, en-
trance is stringently forbidden to all,
except the possessors at law of the
vineyard. All paths leading to the
vineyards are closed until the vintage,
with the exception of any very impor-
tant lines of communication, and
watchers guard uninterruptedly the
precious fields. At last the exact time
for the commencement of the vintage
is fixed for each separate district, by a
meeting of the council of the village or
town and the officers of the landward
court, and made known by bell.
One smiles. at the thought of the re-
ception any Prohibitionist propaganda
would meet with in these parts, and the
vastly more interesting reception that
would be accorded any propaganda
bearing that name or preaching that
doctrine.

The PRAYER That Hurt.

A MEMBER of certain Massachu-
sets parish prominent for his thrift
and personal consequence was also
notorious for his overbearing assump-
tons and pompous airs. Under the
distress and fright Of dangerous ILL
ness he ''put up notes. on several sue
cessive Sundays, and after his recovery,
according to usage, he offered a note
to be read by the minister expressive
of his thanks The minister was some
what large in this part of his pray
er. recalling the danger and the pre-
vious petitions of the squire and re-
turning his grateful Acknowledgements
with the prayer that the experience
might be blessed to the spiritual well
fare OF the restored man. He closed
with these words:
And we pray. 0 Lord, that thy
servant may be cured of that ungodly
strut, SO offensive in the sanctuary"

Masculine Music.

The musical doctor stepped into the
shop.
His hair stuck out like stiff straws,
and his joy Of life was under his arm;
also two buttons on his waistcoat were
undone. So there was no doubt about
his being a genius.
"Aha. ahem, ahumr purred the
musical doctor ''E string for violin,
please"
The man behind the counter looked
fustered. He went to the shelf, took
off small packet. examined it care
fully, examined it again and then hes
itatingly returned to the customer.
81 beg your pardon sir" he began
efficiently. but this 'appens to be my

"Pins and Needles"

After being for long time in a con
strained attitude peculiar numbness
and pricking are often felt in the arm,
leg or foot. This is caused by some
interruption to the circulation and can
usually be removed by rubbing or ex-
ercise The reason of the sensation,
which is decidedly uncomfortable
while it lasts. is that pressure for a
certain length of time deadens the
sensibility of nerve. When this
pressure is suddenly removed. as
Strengthening out the leg after sitting

sensibility gradually returns to the
nerve. and as each nerve fiber COM
posing the trunk regains its normal
condition of sensibility pricking SEN
sation is felt. and these successive
prickings from the successive awaken
ings of the numerous hbers have not
inaptly been called ''pins and needles"

Law and Geography.


From the half timers papers written
at recent term examination: Some
Of the chief inventions Of the last $50
years are having an act SO that no per-
son under fourteen years must go into
the public house. Another act was so
that no person under the age Of six
teen years must smoke cigars, pipes
and cigarettes, and no person under
that age can be served with any. My
brother Bill is now all right for this
invention. He was sixteen last week"

they shoot the rapids, and unless you
are red Indian this is very trouble

Bread and Butter.

There is no place in which bread
and butter can be SO beneficial or
poisonous as in the nursery. The
worst thing you can give young
baby, under year old, is bread, says
a writer. But later on bread De-
comes useful. 1t should never be
given new to a child at any age. but
stale bread or toast, or bread baked
crisp in the oven, is excellent for
children. They really want more
crisp foods nowadays, and if this fact
was taken to heart the next genera
ton would suffer less from decayed
teeth and weak digestion.
