YOUNG PORKERS PROFITABLT.

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
MILFORD BEL, Feb. 25.-Joshua
r. Cain, antive of Milford Neck.
but now resident of Michigan, is
credited with being the champion hog
raiser of that Western State In a
letter which was received by John
Cain. OF near Milford, his brother.
this week, the Wcsternor stated that
of eleven pigs born to one mother
he had succeeded in raising them all
to be record producers. When eight
months OF age the eleven porkers
were butchered, the combined weight
being 3.OS0 pounds. or an average Of
2S0 pounds for each pig. The weights
do not seem TO be remarkable, but
when the age of the porkers is con-
sidered the age is more than re-
markable. For the porkers a total of
S215.60 was received.

GAME is MOST INTERESTING
my Lady Wants Her Whole Toilette"
Causes Players to Make Wild
Scramble for Seats.

In this game the players are all
seated in ring, and each takes for
a name some article of toilette, such
as brush, glove, or something of the
kind. One of their number stands
in the center of the room and twists
a small tray or bread-board quickly
round, at the same time calling out
the name of one of the articles. She
must run forward quickly and catch
the tray before it falls. If she fails
to do this she goes back to her seat,
but if she catches it she takes the
place of the turner.
Sometimes the cry is "My lady
wants her whole toilette" and at these
words everyone jumps up and makes
rush for the chairs, including the
turner, and the one left without seat
must take her place in the center, and
the game then goes on as before.

ers, and he crowed and screamed as
the carriage glided over the smooth
ice. sF>7
By and by he fell asleep, and Bella
wheeled the carriage off the pond and
placed it by fence by some bushes.
HE will be all right there" she
said, "and now l can have some fun
skating"
So the baby slept and Bella skated,
and after awhile it was time to go
home, and no one thought of the
baby.
Bella took off her skates and ran
with the others across the lots to the
road that led to the village.
Just as she entered the yard she
thought of the baby; her mother saw
her and ran to the door; but Bella
did not stop; she ran down the street
to the road that led to the pond. She
ran on and on across the lot to the
fence where she had left the carriage,
but the baby and carriage had disap-
peared.
Bella looked all around, but there
was no carriage to be seen, then she
thought of the gypsies that were
camped at the other side of the viii
lage and began to cry; what if they
had stolen her baby brother and she
would never see him again.
There was nothing to do but go
home and tell her mother, and Bella
went with a sad heart and hurrying
feet, crying as though her heart would
break.
She ran into the house, and there
sat her mother with the baby held
tight in her arms.
Bella ran up to him, but her mother
pushed her away. mo, you do not
love him!" she said. II shall never
let you take him out again, and as you
do not love him, do not want you to
hold him or kiss him until you do"
Bella sobbed, and begged to be al
lowed to kiss the baby, but her moth
er said no; she did not love her little
brother enough to take good care of
him, and she could not touch him.
Besides that, you deceived me-" said
her mother. II did not tell you you
could not take your skates, but you
knew wanted you to take care Of the
baby, and you deceived me, besides
rislSing the life of your brother.

ing the lot and heard the baby crying
no knowing what would have hap
pened, for he was hanging over the
side of his carriage. and Mr.. Bennett
saw him Just in time to save him from
falling"
Bella was very much ashamed, as
we'll as frightened, but it was a long
time before her mother would trust
the baby with her again.
Bella never forgot her fright and
her love for her brother could never
be doubted, when her mother, after 9
while, let Bella kiss him, and she
never had to be asked to take care Of
the baby.
