Just where they were and whatever they
were doing, at that very minute 1
The minister's Bon had coma Into the
study, with Ills hit in his hand, and xaid :
"Shall, Cnnclius and I, fir, take our
scythes, sir, aud go out nud mow n little
wblle,tr?"
And then Mr. Tadyon's fool caught hold
of the bell'Mpc.
Mr. Fadyon'a fool knew some thi'igi ;i
well a auybody j and he knew how to ring
the bell exactly when the sun-dial and the
noon-mark and his grandmother's eight
day clock said it was noon.
So "ding, dong !" went tho bell, and It
ta only a Maltese kitten that bad hold of
the ropel
Just al that hour, Aunt Patty was out in
Jier garden hoeing weed, and an old hat of
Uncle Rodney's tied on her head j and she
began to turn, first her nose and then her
chin. They were very long and sharp when
oho was Aunt Patty, and they grew short
nnd stubby, and whiskers began to start,
and her ears pricked up as though she
beard something, and then, quicker than
you could ay "scatl" alio was a spotted cat
erasing Deacon Davis's hens, that wore try
ing tn sneak through the garden fenco with
tho old rooster's pur on. After scaring
them half out of their leathers, she kept on
through Airs. Deacon Davis's cat-hole, and
up In the back ckainber, where she plowed
about aud sniffed In all the dark corners
and behind tho old tea-chests and bar
rets. When she was Aunt Patty she always had
mistrusted whether or no' Mrs. Deacon Da
vis hadn't some cobwebs and poke-holes
out of.sight, for all that she kept everything
lookiug neat as wax on tho outside.
Aud then the minister's sou jumped with
one spring on the minister's shoulder, and
began to bite the minister's hair aud claw
off his glasses, for lie liked rough ways aud
mischief as well as any boy .only ho had to be
proper because he was the minister s son.
The minister looked around solemn and
dignified, n good deal astonished ; and then
his glasses grew rounder and rounder, and
bis arms grew slenderer and slenderer ; and
then he seemed to wink all over ; aud then
Ihere was a great black cat, with a white
spot on bis throat and a white face and four
white feet, sitting in the study chair, snapping-at
the flies', with' "one paw on a volume
of Jonathau Edwards sermons,
It was a great change tor the minister.
But as for Mrs. Deacon Davis, she didn't
seem to need to alter hardly a bit. Her
eyes were the mildest skim-milk before,
much' more faded than an old cat's eyen ;
and her hair was pale buff and sort of fur
ry. And she bad a way of rubbing herself
against the side of her chair as she talked
alone in a kind 01 purr-purring tone, en
stopped work for the first time in her life,
though, and taking ber yellow paws out of
the wash-tub, went to chasing dandelion'
down.
But as soon as teu clocks anywhere in
town struck one at the same second, all the
cats turned back to people again ; and you
ought to have seen how surprised they were
to catch themselves doing such odd things.

much good time right out ofthe heart of

Cows Coming Fresh. Some dairymen
insist 'that the cow, soon after calving, should
be allowed to go to the trough and take all
tho cold water thut tho appetite craves. Wo
do not approve of this course, preferring to
give her a pail of tepid water in which a lit
tle bran is mingled making a thin gruei. Our
practice lias been to give freely tepid water,or
sufficient to satufy thirst, and not allow cold
water from tha trough until the third day,
and not then if the cow seems to bo weak -or
ailing. It is important that thn milk from
tho udder be completely drawn soon after the
cow has calved, and if tho bag is swollen or
inflamed it will require attention in this re
spect, frequently three or four times during
the day. So soou as the feverish condition of
tho cow incident to calvisg, shall have sub
sided, generous feed should be given, bran
mashes at first which may be increased gradu
ally with additions of oaten meal and rations
of roots, of wcich mangolds and carrots are
best, as they give no unpleasant flavor to the
milk.

Driving Nails. Every farmer who has
had occasion to drive a flail into seasoned oak
posts knows its liability to bend and break.
If the. point bo moistened in the mouth it will
drive more kindly. Oil is still better,' but
then it is inconvenient to dip each nail sepa
rately into it. Another point observed is
that boards become loose eventually from the
ruitiugof the nails, which communicating to
the wood, causes not only an enlargement
of tho hole but the destruction of tho
nail itself, rendering the fences or the build
ing shaky and insecure. This may bo pre
vented by heating any rough grease until it
smokes and then pouring it over tho nails to
bo used. The grease will penetrate the pores
of tho iron, and cause tho nails to last, with
out rusting, an indefinite period. Itesides
this, no tioublo will be experienced in driving
them into the hardost wood. The reason is
that tbe coating of greao prevents contact of I
air, and consequently oxidation.
