Some judgment is required to know. when to cease using the lawn mower in autumn. The grass should not be cut too close, but enough left to pro tect the roots in cold weathor; nor left too dense to smother the lower leaves.

Luckily my' hat was very thick and I nm blessed with a tolera bly solid skull. So I Boon recovered my self, and I was looking about to ascertain what had hit me, when I was greatly startled by a weird and ghostly fluttering of wings a foot above mo. A great gray gull had narrowly escaped alighting upon my shoulders. ,He Just succeeded in check ing his Impetuous descent as his feet al most touched mo. With a queer kind of halt frightened cry he was again into the air. But what had brought him so close to mef I soon found out. Lying on tho sand was tha thing that had given mo that blow upon the head. It was a large black mussel, and the sea gull had dropped it from a dizzy height upon my unoffend ing scalp. I have studied the habits of these birds pretty carefully, aud I know very well why ho had done it. Ho. was trying to get at his dinner, and as the shell of the mussel was still unbroken, and I wished to see him try again, I walked a couple of hundred yards away and then turned to watch his movements. See ' ing that the coast was clear, he quickly flew back to the place where the mussel had fallen, seized it in his beak and, again rising high into the air.Jie lot it drop. He followed it closely as It fell, keeping almost besido it during tho greater part of tbe descent, and only moderating his downward rush when he was in danger of dashing himself upon the beach.. The mussel struck the sand, but the shell was still unbroken, and, indeed, it was veryt evident to me that the soft ground that received it would never lay it open. Then 1 flung the mussel to a distance, and ths gull, seeming to taxe ims as a mui, ui my head was not a chopping block, seized hfs troublesome delicacy and flew away. J saw him turn a little inland, rise onco more to a gTeat height, dart swiftly down and- then wing his way put to sea. found that many Btones Jay at the place of his last descent; so, doubtless, his per severance was at length rewarded, and hs had gone off to some lonely rock to dine." Ran Francisco '" Power of a Kind Voles. There is no power ot love so hard to get and keep as a kind voice. A kind hand is deaf and dumb. It may be rough in flesh and blood, yet do the work ot a soft heart and do it with A soft touch. But there is no one thing that love so much needs as a sweet voice to tell what it means nd feels; and it is hard to get and keep it in the right tone. One must start In youth and bo on the watch night and day, at Work and play, to get and keep a voice that shall speak at nH times the thoughts of a kind heart. It Is often in youth tha pne gets a voice or a tone that Is sharp, and sticks to him through life, and stirs up ill Will and grief, and falls like a drop of gallon the syveet joys of home. Watch It day by day as a pearl of great price, for it will be worth more to you in days to coma than the best pearl hid in the sea, A fcind voice is to the heart what light is to the eye, It is a light that sings as well as shines.
