Eve's Daughter, Little Agnes had been a regular at- tendant at the Sunday School last win- ter. The other day the school opened again after the vacation, and the teacher decided to have a general review of all the ground covered by the primary de- partment. She started, very properly, at the beginning. “Children,” said she, “after Adam was created, how was Eve brought into the world?" A half-dozen hands went into the air. “Willie Smith may answer,” said the teacher. “Made-ottter-a-bone-frum-Adam.” “Now, children, that is correct. And from what bone was woman created?” There was an awful silence in the classroom. Finally little Agnes’ hand went up like a shot. “You may answer, Agnes. Her decision came quickly. “The jawbone,” said she. »"” 1 4 The Power of Reasoning. A merry young Irishman is employed as a coachmaa by a Liverpool family.

It is an easy way to dispos? of them, especially if the weeds ute green, but if matured and full of seeds weeds over the farm, as it is from the tuanure heap that many farms are so well stocked with weeds, Of course, if manure is allowed to thoroughiy of farms on hundreds which the manure is spread on the fields but there are before it 1s decomposed.

At a recent Canadian institute one of the speakers said that in the spring and fall, when cows are in the stable, it Clean all dust, KEEPING STABLE of whitewash. The health of men and women depend largely on the health of the cow. Her health depends on the cleanliness of the place she is kept in Keep the stable clean, but do not clean it too near milking time. Feed nothing but pure, sweet, clean, wholesome food. If a taint or flavor in the milk is caused by the food, it will be worst when it is drawn from the cow. If caused by some fermentation, it will grow worse as the milk is kept. The remedy for the latter is cleanliness. Use scalding water in all the utensils. Such foods as brewess' grains, distillery slops, Swede turnips and tops, rape, sour, mouldy silage, mus. ty meal, cleanings from the horse stable and hay or grass having bad smelling weeds, are prohibited from being used, Allow cows access to plenty of good pure water and salt at all times. In every 100 pounds of normal milk there the milk depends largely upon the kind of water the animal gets to drink. HUSKING CORN BY MACHINERY.

WOMEN STAGE DRIVERS. The regular stage and mail wagon be. by a woman yet in her teens, and the to Howell—twenty miles—is also driven by a woman. The reason for this is that the contractors agree to do the work for the government at such low wages that it hardly pays an able-bodied man to do the driving, so girls“are hired when possible during the greater part of the year. The star routes in the section are over thinly settled districs, and in many places several miles are travelled without a house or a sign of life in sight, except perhaps the cattle or horses that may be grazing on the prairie. But po harm has yet come to the plucky girls who make these long and lonesome rides They carry revolvers, and being expert shots, would no doubt do some nice noteworthy feature of the work of two women is that they are always first to leave town on their trips in morning and the first to arrive in evening. —~Mimacapolis Journal, the CHASERS.
