 Though the natives rejoice when
 ever a lion Is killed, intelligent Afr
 can farmers do not take the same view
 of the matter, protesting that the lion
 is really a great help, killing other
 animals which prey on the planted
 crops. In one season, it is asserted
 $50 lions were slain, and this number, it is estimated, would have been re- sponsibIe for probably 30000 zebras
 and antelopes, which destroy valuable crops as fast as the farmer can plant and grow them The agriculturists
 declare that if the lions are left un- slaughtered for few years, they will so reduce the crop destroyers that . farming will yield large profits.

Altar of Roses.

A trade journal announces that. 0vg- ing to the war, the price of altar of roses has gone up to an unprecedented figure, and is likely to remain so for long time to come. The war is not the only cause of the upheaval; some part of 1t is due to the failure of the rose crop owing to last years incIernent summer. White and red roses are grown in Bulgaria. and the white, though much easier to cultivate, give only half as much oil of an inferior quality. Twenty five to th1rty-ffve pounds of rose leaves are distilled with above five times their weight of water. till some twenty-five pounds weight of distillate are obtained. About eight CT nine such lots are mixed and redist11- led into fasks with long nec4zs, in which the oil collects standing. One pound of oil is obtained from about a million and a quarter of roses, or 5000 pound weight. The pure oil varies in odor and physical properties according to the district in which it is grown, and is sIzillfulIy blended by the dis tributing houses before it's sale. It is usually adulterated by the peasants, who mix with it ginger grass oil, pal ma rosa oil, and geranium oil-Lon- don Morning Post.

CHIPS TRICK.

Tn a snug bit of a home. under gray old stump that stood at the foot of a thickly wooded hill lived with his father and mother frisk little Chip.
 Chip and the other young squirrels sn the neighborhood were fond of having a race over the stumps and rocks, up the trees, from limb to limb and branch to branch, until they were tired and far from Sauirreltown. Then they would stop to rest, eat nuts and chatter about their frolic.
 One afternoon, when Chip reached home after one of these f1y-away trips, he found his mother in great gone out in the morning for short time, had not returned.
 Don't worry 'chfrped Chip. I'll find him." and off he went
 He meant what he said, too, for the thought that his father was really gone made no impression in his funny little head. At dusk he came back subdued and alone but half expecting to find his father there. One glance at his mother showed Chip that he must provide for her. so the next day he began.
 Long before he had enough food gathered. the nuts near by were gone; then he had to take longer journeys from home. He ran far beyond the top of the hill one day and discovered g great white house and across the road from if a smaller one filled with corn
 Chip sat up just where he was when he caught sight of the coveted treas ure. and then with chirp he skipped to the orn-crib. He was busily slowing the grain in his side pockets when he was bounced on by a great fury lifted off of his feet and carried to the big white house.
 There he was dropped at the feet of smaller fury that seized him in 8 twinkling and ran with him into 8 large yard Taking a nasty glance at his surroundings, Chip discovered that he could readily make his escape by way of a tree that stood near if he could manage to get out of that @%eature's mouth. He wiggled to twist Himself out of the Kittens grasp, whereupon puss dropped him and cuff ed his ears. Chip sprang for the tree. but the kitten sprang for him and caught him, too. The foolish puss did not see what he was trying to do, however, and so do not think 1t worth
