On the birthday of Napoleon Charles, son of Louis Napoleon and Hortense, and a child whom the Emperor Napo leon meant to make his heir, he and his mother were seated at a window in the palace which opened upon the grand avenue. A heavy shower had fallen, and the avenue was full of pools of water. A group of barefooted children were out there wading in the water and playing with little chip boats. The young l'rlnce, richly dressed, la a splendid hail and surrounded by his elegant aud costly birthday presents, turned careless'y away from his toys and watched the children with eager Interest. "So then, my son ?" said his mother, you are not graterul Tor your presents." Oh, yes," replied the young Prince, "but I aru so used to toys. Look at those little boys, mamma ?'

How to stop a runaway Horse When you st-o a ruuaway Iwrse com Inj, di not try to cLeck bim by a ru.-h from the o;ioUe .lire ction or tie siJe, tor you will be immediately knockc! Hat by the collifion, tut instead prepare yourself for a short rurr with the horse. JU.vure with your -ye the distance, and start for tLe run whi e he la yet some way off, perhaps ten fet in the cawe of fair to medium runawavs. You may ileimJ uron hia keering a straight line, for a really frightened home is half blind, and would uot eer for a steam engine. He will go straight 1 ahead until he smashes into something- ' do you col eloae to the liseoo which j he la rushing, and. aa he passes you, j grab the reins near the sadd!e. Gather j lao mas Urmly. and tken. ieunmg backward aa you run, give them a pow erful Tack. Yoa may be ab'e to trace yourself somewhat as yen give this yank, half sliding on your feet. The strong jerk oa the bits tells the horse that he again hiu has a roaster, and prepares him for the Gnal strug'e. A step or two forwird after the Cist yauk, do it again. This Is the Cnishlng stroke It never fails when given by a determined mar. The horse is on his hauaches. Keep a firm pull on the reins till yea grasp the horse br the nostrils, and hold him so until kt is pacified. - AN IndviiD e Ink tnat can no erased even with the acids, can be , tained from the following recipe . good gall ink add a strong sol it ton A of l'rusaian blue dissolved in distilled water.

One of the difficulties in chlcnan rais ing is that but few ben houses Lave been built which answer for both winter at,d summer, says a correspondent of the American Itural Home. For fi-ck of twenty fowls I prefer a honsr 12x12 feet, 7 feet high at the rear and 9 ih" at the front, the roof to be of tarred paper, and the floor of close boards. Board floors are prefered as they can be swept off with a broom if kept well dusted with dry earth and as they are always dry, there will be less liability to dampness. The floor shou'd be rais ed about three feet from the ground the front side open to the yard. The object in raising it up three feet is to guard against harboricg rata. It a'so affords an open shelter In winter, as the three closed sides protect the fowls against the winds and affjrd shade in the summer. In other words It is a covered run for the fowls and really gives double space, as the birds can lav and roost above, steps being provided .for them to go np or down to the space above the floor. A. small window on the south ride will give all necessary light, as too much glass causes loss of heat by radiation at night. The roost should be about six Inches above a two-foot wide board, at the rear of the boase and the nests under neath, which saves space. Of course two or three steps will be necessary in crder to enter the door to the upper part, which sbuld be on the west end of the bouse near the front. The floor un der the board floor should be of earth, raistd about the surrounding ground, or if one inch wire mtsn be underlaid the floor to keep the rats out, it may be of boards. The interior may be lined with any kind of cheap building paper. There should be two ventilators at the two highest corners of the house to be kept open during the day onlr. Such a house is excellent for winter. In sum mer the windows may be taken out and a screen wire tetilrg put In place and the opening in the floor where the fowls enter may then be covered with a screen also. This plan will if the ventilators are kept open give plenty of fresh air In summer. Snow Forts in War. A great many young play-warriors have built formidable snow forts but they Duver have imagined, probably, that there could be such a thing as the use of snow forts by actual soldiers, and for purposes of defecce against bullets. Qately. however, the Norwegian officers have b en conducting some interesting experiments in snow fortifications. A colonel in the royal service recent ly constructed entrenchments of packed snow about three yards in thickness. Thtn he placed a firing detachment a distance of thirty-three yards from the ttie entrenchments and caused 300 rifle ehots to be fired into the fort. After the tiring the enow walls were ex amined and it was found that not a sin gle rifle ball bad penetrated more than a yard and a quarter into the snow. The bullets were found flattened out as If they had been fired into some hard substance. .such breastworks would nndoubedly prove very useful against infantry, in a winter campaign. In a bnowy country. But a military force entrenched bvthind them would have occasion to fear a thaw or a heavy raiu quite as much as the bullets of the enemy. Depth to Set Posts. Correspondents In different parts of the country differ widely as to the depth of bole needed for fence posts Some sav tbat two feet ia ample depth while others Insist on three feet. Both may be and probably are right. The depth must vary with the probable freezing cf the soil. The bottom of the post ought to be at least six inches below the probable depth of freezing Tbat amount of soil will remain packK about the foot of the post and hold it down. Something also depends on the material of which the fence is made iioarda offer too much resistance to winds, and at the top of the fence act on the post as on a lever, twisting it out of the ground. Fence rails attach, ed to posts have the additional objVc lion mat their weight sags the post so soon as the wind causes It to lean Careful farmers now make post-arid rail fences with one or two strands of barbed wire at the top. After a little experience with this fence ty hading stock np to it they generally learn to give it a wide berth. Such a fence will not blew down nor easily sag If the pos's are sunk below frost depth. 'Drilled" Wheat. When the farmer sowed his wheat in the old-fashioned way by stalking ovr the fields with a bag hnng aroona his neck and flung his seed to the four winds; hen the implements of the farmer were crude and hia mechanical resources limited, the cold ard frost were the dread foes of the tillers of the "West and Northwest. Great progress baa been made In the art of agrieuK tnre since that period. But la the march of Improvement the weather problem bad to he mastered. An in genious Yankee did It. lie invented the 'drill," with which every farmer in the West now sows bis wheat. It saves time and labor and. In the event of a severe freeze, it saves the plant It self. Every grain of wheat ratsed In the great wheat growing section Is drilled wheat, and the universal testi mony of the fames is that drilled wheat. In its early growth, can't be "frozen out," because the root of the plant is too deep in the ground, whereas the hand-sown wheat of former days took root very near the surface, and neces sarily suffered In severe weather.

AO., FUi SAU litOJf UU., V6 KcadO m., N. Y. DO IT NOW Pa A Maelstrom In a Lake. An Inland lake with a maelstrom is a curiosity not generally supposed to ex lt ; y-t there is such a phenomenon in Florida. Lake Jactson is a lake six miles nortn of Tallabssee. It is eigh teen miles long in high water and twelve durlDg low water, and here is the point and reason of the maelstrom. The legends of dates differ in time somewhat, but the first great maelstrom is placed in Angost, 154a At that lime some negroes were fishing not far from the north end. Suddenly a loud noise was heard, and their little boat began to moTe around in a large circle the center of which deflected m the form of a eooe. Soon their craft be gan to revolve so rapidly that the party got frightened and started for the shore. The negroes had a difficult voy age, as the maelstorm rapidly increased In size and power. They succeeded in time and turned to look at the disturb ance. Soon the roar became terifSc aod attracted not oaly all the slavson the great Jackson estates surrounding the like, bnt the aristocratic white owners as well. It was several days before the waters calmed down, aud then it was discovered that the lake bad lowered f mm aiahti. .n.. i v.gubCTu uiiirs iu length to twelve. Meantime the resi dents alonp; the Oclockine river, five miles away, were terrified by an enor mous tidal wave, as they at first sup. posed it to be. but which proved to be, the departing waters of Jackson lake.' The river duriDg the maelstorm was swollen to more than twice its usual size. After the lake calmed down the inhabitants examined the scene of the maelsirom. A great Lole was found to have been excavated in the bottom of trie lake fn the form of a cave. It Lad ben cioggad with los, fish, alligators and debris of all descriptions, which proved fortunate, as it saved the lake from destruction. During the next seven years the lake gradually filled to its former level ; then for seven years it lowered gradually to the leyel estab lished by the maelstrom. This re markable alternation has continued regularly since, i visited the lake last winter and spent several weeks hunting and Ashing in the vicinity. The lake at that time was at its lowest. I was told by the negroes tbat the time had arrived for it to begin the first of its seven years' pise. Finally It did be gin to come up, and before I fef t it had risen two feel, which, over a surface of thirty t quare miles, must amount to an enormous quantity of water. Cream fur Churning. There happens just now to be trou blsome uncertainly as to the keeping and churning of cream, due to eager desire to make clear what is at presed inexplicable, and to the seeming; strife among certain dairy writers to e sen sational. Hence the term "ripening" of cream and consequent confusion. Cream Is "ripe" when ready for churn ing an.l making the best quality of but ter. This condition is a moderate de gree of acidity or sourness, and the practical batter-maker may be sure tnere Is nothing more than this needed with cream ftee from all uncleanliness to make the best and most butter. Some time ago these "experts" at present loudest on "ripening were equally vociferous In praise of cburnir g sweet cream. But now it is alleged tbat sweet cream will not jiald bo much butter by 20 or 25 per cent, as ripened or sour cream. The latter statement Is an wide of the mark as It was to say the sweet cream makes best-flavored butter. Some persons prefer their butter to be Insipid free from tbat aroma which is its most desirable quality to ordinary consumers. Ripened cream which makes finely flavored butter, has just entered the first stage of decomposition known as acidity. If this decomposi tion goes too far the flavor becomes gradually stronger until it ends in rau cidity. At this season there is danger of the cream, by too long keeping, be coming too soar or overripe, and con sequently making Inferior butter. This is to be avoided with every care, but especially by keeping the milk at a temperature below CO degrees and the cream still cooler when a charting Is only made once a week. A Famous Dish or Long Ago. Another dish which was noted in the olden time went down at the same period. This was the peacock. It was served in two ways. The bird was skinned, the body roasted, and the skiu placed or it again before it wa? sent to the table, or it was made into a pie with the neck and bead and the tail fastened to the crust. In any event a rich gravy was served with it, and it will sound strange to modern cooks to learn tbat mutton stock was always used. Some of the old receipes order three sheep bruised and made into gravy for one paacock. When served it was carried to the table by the most distinguished lady ia the company, aDd it was her place to carve.it. The knights present were accustomed to take fantastic oaths "on the peacock." "When Eleanor, the Queen of Edward III., brought In the peacock, the King swore on the bird that be would take Calais and put Us citizens to the sword. It was tbat same Eleanor that begged the lives of the burgesses from ber fiery "husband. The best grasses are those naturally adapted to the soil. In America about one dozen varieties are specialties, while in England the farmers select from over a hundred. A firm sod of native grass should never be turned un der to make room for soma other kind until the new grass has been tested on the farm. Soila vary, and grass that may thrive on one farm may fail on an other. Nearly all the breeds of fancy poulty are bred in cities, mostly by clerks, book-keepers and those who wiah to devote a proportion of their leisure time to something elee. They do a business of over 11,000,000 annu ally In selling pnre breeds, and under stand the business of poultry raising better than the farmers.
