A MODEL. GAKDKXEK.
Bill lletlfjer was a pBnlener
Who earned liisdaily meat
By toiling zealously all day
11 is teal was hard to beat.
He va a man of tender parts,
And thoughtful for liis years
K'en when he out bis onions down
His eyes would fill with tears.
He was so pitiful and kind
He'd drvad to cut Lib lawn ;
l!ut though he'd iieverfchock his friends.
He'd often shock his corn.
A score of carrots oft he'd give
To feed a widow's kine ;
Sucli gems of churity are rare
Full twenty carats fine,
1'is wretcheil horse could hardly creep,
Kill iroined him while he grazed;
He aid he'd have a better steed
When his celery was rated.
He'd sometimes cauliflower to him
When he had done his work
H? loved it stewed in buttermilk,
Or boiled with greens and pork.
Hut death at last mow'd William down-.
And they planted him in lnani.
And f;ave him for his epitph
" He found sweet pease at home!"

Well, I am really very sorrv P
sished Mrs. Evans, looking ruefully
of t-n ctt-.Mi1 r,iiiA nf l.nnt nntPH in
her lap. ami then at her fair daugh
ters, Hell and Augusta, wlio were
standing near her, examining a
wreath of flowers.
"I'm sorry, too, mamuia," said
Bell.
'To be sure, Elsie ought to be pro
vided for her visit, out you know she
is the youngest, and we '
'Why, we can't go out without de
cent dresses!' chimed in Miss Augus
ta. 'I won't for one, I know.'
'Never mind my London visit
said little Klsie. the plain sister of
these petted girls, as she quietly en
tered the room and overheard the
conversation. 'I would a9 soon go
ami spend a week with Aunt Laura,
and that won't take very much prep
aration.' 'Would you really?' asked Mrs.
Evans, hesitating between a selfish
wish to please her beauties, and
what was only justice to the young
girl beside her.
'I really would, ma. I dare say I
would not be at home among those
city jeople. Just let me go to Aunt
Laura's, and give Gus and Bell all
the finery.'
'Well, that relieves my mind won
derfully !' said Mrs. Evans, with a
very long sigh. 'I didn't know how
to arrange for you all. Three girls
are so expensive. You can have my
la.t winter's cloak, Elsie, for one
thing.'
'No, she can have minf, mamma,
eagerly cried Bell. It s a little out
of style for me, but it will do very
well "for Elsie, and thenJI'll get a new
one."
"Well, yours, then,' agreed Mrs.
Evans, 'and I'll try to save enough
out of the girl's shopping, Elsie, to
get you a black cashmere.
lhen 1 shall be grand I said easi
ly contented Elsie. "May I go next
week ?'
'Yes.'
'Go to work and get ready. Come,
girls. If we want to do any shop
ping to-dav, we must go immedi
ataly.' 'And I'll get dinner while you are
gone,' Elsie consoled them by ad
ding. So, while the mother, Gus and
Bell tossed over the glittering silks
on Fnowy counters, patient Elsie
heated herself in the kitchen where
her beautiful sister3 would never go
if they could help it to .have din
ner all ready for them.
It was waiting when they returned,
tired, and with good appetites, from
their shopping. After it was eaten,
Elsie followed them all into the sit
ting room, to see the new purchases
commented on and very nicely dis
played. 'Well, where's my black cash
mere?' 6he asked, after the last bun
dle was unrolled, and not as much
as a neck ribbon given her.
'Oh! I am so sorry, but really
there wasn't a shilling left after the
girls' shopping was done, and so '
'And so I got none, like Mother
Hubbard's dog,' suggested Elsie, try
ing to laugh, but feeling inclined to
cry.
bhe had very much wished to go
to Ixindon, and now she had given
that up, she did think that she had
a right to one new tiress.
'Well, it does seem too bad,' con
fessed Augusta, 'but you can be pret
ty well dressed out of our things.
Let's see, ma. 'She might travel in
her black ulster, and have ray gray
poplin for best.'
'No, I'll travel in the gray poplin,
and spoil it as quickly as I can !'
flashed Elsie, roused for once.
'Why, Elsie?' mildly reproved
Mrs. Evans.
'Well, mamma, you know I look
horrid in gray. My waterproof will
cover it up when I travel, and my
black ulster will do for best, but 1
wish 'she only finished her sen
tence with t sigh. She would not
say, "I wish you would have got me
the cashmere," it would seem too
much like blaming her mother.
Mrs. Evans thought it best not to
notice the abruptly ended sentence,
but proposi d to the girls that they
let her dress their hair at once.
There was a party on the cards
for the evening, and their mother,
having a gift in that line, often acted
as hairdresser to her lovely maid
ens. They were read', in their dain
ty robes and snowy gloves (four but
tons, too,) when their cavaliers ar
rived, and away they went so gaily,
while Elsie, at home, mended her
old gloves, and made her simple
preparations for her journey. She
was asleep long before they came
home. But at breakfast the next
morning, they went into raptures
over 'such a delightful party 1' And
especially over Mr. Loveli, the broth
er of their hostess, 'such a splendid
fellow 1 So very handsome, and
worth thousands, think of that !'
, 'Of course he would look hand
some then, if he were really hideous,'
observed Elsie, coolly.
'He's going away for a few days,
but he promised to call when he
comes back. You just ought to see

him, Elsie,' declared Miss Bell, with'
out neticing Elsie's caustic remark,'
he's so handsome !'
'It makes very little difference to
niA whether he's handsome or home
ly. 'I'm poing to be an old maid,'
returned Elsie, buttering a roll.
'Well, I am not, if 1 can catch
Archie Lovell,' averred Miss Bell,
sipping her chocolate.
Mr. Lovell was dropped just then,
but Elsie, two or three times that
day, wondered if he were really so
very handsome, or so rich, or if 9he
would ever see him.,
Elsie, herself, was a pleasant thing
to see, if she was not a beauty, as
she stood upon the platform at the
station, ready for her journey. Her
face whs so bright aud sweet, and
her manner so winsome that no one
would fail to to turn for a second
look.
The carriages were well filled, and
the only vacant seat was very near
i the hot stove. Here Elsie bestowed
l IierIi ilUU Uri uciuuiugn. aiiu
gun to glance nrounu ai ner neign-
bors. A fine looking fellow, and a
j poorly dressed little girl just in front
of her, attracted her most,
j The gift of a golden orange from
? her lunch basket won the little one's
I favor and Elsie was soon chatting
i merrily with her, and had learned
that she was on her way to live with
her erandpa, because her
mamma
was too poor to keep them all in the
citv.
After a while the heat grew over
powering, and Elsie tried to raise
her window, but it was fast. She
tugged hard with her soft fingers
soft and white in spite of her kitchen
work all in vain, until a black
sleeved arm was reached over hers,
and a pleasant voice said :
"Allow me, please. My hands are
stronger than yours."
Elsie looked up, and met the gaze
of a fine pair of dark eyes, belonging
to her neighbor.
The window was quickly raised,
and Elsie thanked him, as the wel
come air rushed in. They chatted a
little now, politely, as traveleis may
do, and Elsie decided that he was
very pleasant for a passing acquaint
ance. :
Before long the girl in the next
seat fell asleep, her little curly head
bumping about uneasily. In an in
stant Elsie had unstrapped her
shawl, and, rising, slipped it under
the small brown head.
'Is she traveling under your care?'
asked the stranger.
'Oh, no ! I never saw the little girl
before.'
'But she is so little to be all alone,
and her head did bump so !' said the
stranger.
'She can rest easier now.'
The stranger said no more, and as
Elsie was busily - folding , up her
shawl straps, she did not see the
glance of earnest admiration which
he gave her nor knew that the out
spoken thought of his heart would
have been :
'You good, kind hearted little
girl.'
W hen they stopped for refresh
ment, the stranger helped Elsie out
and escorted her to the room. As
they were leaving their seats, he said
to her :
'Suppose we take your little friend
here, too ?'
0h, yes !' assented Elsie, flashing
him abright glance of approval.
So they took the little thing, and
brought her back warmed and fed,
to resume her journey. And it was
a pity some good angel could not
have whispered to the anxious moth
er, who, in the distant city, teareu
for her child's lonely journey, what
kind of hands the little one. had fal
len into.
On rattled the train, until about
the middle of the afternoon, there
was a heavy jar, a hissing, crashing
noise, and the train, a perfect wreck,
lay over an embankment, with its
living freight.
At first Elsie was so stunned and
startled that she was conscious of
nothing, heard nothing except moans
and cries mingled with the jingle of
shattered glass and the sound of es
caping steam. Then her senses
seemed to return, and she was try
ing to raise herself to her feet, when
6trong arms lifted her, and the voice
of the stranger friend said :
'Steady, now I I think I can get
you out safely. Areyou hurt?'
'No ; I think not. I don't feel
any injury.'
'Are? oh ! you are!' as, looking
up, she saw that bis forehead was
bleeding.
'Oh, that is nothing! A mere
scratch with a piece of broken glass,'
said the stranger, smiling at her hor
rified tone.
'I hope it wili prove so,' answered
little Elsie.
'Oh! our poor little girl! Where is
she?'
'I don't know.'
'Thank you for remembering her.
We will find her.'
Tut me down, please, I can walk
now.'
'Let me help you,' pleaded Miss
Elsie.
He obeyed her, and they found
the little creature lying upon a brok
en seat, moaning with pain. The
stranger carried her out, and laid her
upon a spot of dry grass, and after a
slight examination, told Elsie that
her arm was broken, and one side
bruised.
There chanced to be two or three
physicians in the ill-fated train, and
they gave their best skill to the
wounded, our little girl among the
rest. Elsie held her in her lap
while the little arm was set and
bandaged, and then laid her on the
hastily prepared bed in the station,
near which the accident had happen
ed, and watched over her, assisted
by the strange gentleman, who seem
ed now like an old acquaintance.
When the train which was to carry
them on arrived, Elsie taid :
'I shall not leave this little thing
until she is with her grandfather.
She has told me where she was go
ing. It is a little off my route, but I
am going with her.'
'So am I,' added the stranger, with
his pleasant smile. Humanity al
lows me to do as much as I can, in
srjite of conventional rules. 'I ap
point myself to take care of both of
you, and you need not tear to trust
me.'
'I do not ; and I thank you,' re
sponded Elsie, with simple dignity. '
eo they both waited tor the tram
on the other line, and cared tenderly
for the little one, until, late at night,
they left her in the care of her grand
father, who gave them his warmest
thanks and blessings.
'Would you prefer to stop here for
the night, there's a hotel, I suppose,
or go on ?' asked Elsie's friend.
'Oh, go on, if possible. My aunt
will be much alarmed because I did
not come to-day. Is there a train ?'
Yes.
'I am told one passes in twenty
minutes. . .
'It shall be just as you wish.'
'Let us go on, then.'
'Very well. And now I am going
to let you know whom you are trav
eling with.'
' 'No name,' ' is inconvenient, and
I am willing you should know
mine.'
I hope you will be as frank with
me.
He gave Elsie a card bearing the
name 'Archie Lovell.'
For an instant Elsie was puzzled,
then a licht broke over her face. She
produced her own card, saying,
smilingly :
'I have heard the name quite often
before. And I think you know
mine. At least you know my sister.'
Mr. Lovell glanced at her card
'Is it possible ? Are you a sister of
the Misses Evans who visit my sis
ter?' Yes. I am the youngest sister.'
'Then, I declare myself well ac
quainted with you. And I consider
this a most lucky meeting, Miss El
sie.' Elsie's one week at Aunt Laura's
proved to be three months. And
when she came home, Gus ami Bell
were still talking about Mr. Lovell.
'He's been away on business,' ex
plained Bell, 'but he returned on
Monday, and he is going to-night.'
'Yes, he told me he would,' con
fessed Elsie, demurely. i
'Told you ? Why, you never saw j
him in your life !' cried the girls.
And then the whole story came
out, and Elsie had to explain that
already, on three month's acquaint
ance, she had promised Mr. Lovell
to marrv him, if her mother consent
ed, and he was coming to ask for her
that verv night
'Well, I never!' panted Bell. 'I
never did !'
'I'm sorry, Bell,' said Elsie, de
murely still. 'But you know that
you would make me go to
Aunt Laura's instead of the city, and
so I met him, and I can t help it
now.'
'Well, we shall have him in the
family, anyhow, and that's some
comfort,' was Miss Bell's sole conso
lation. Mow to Draw Congregation.

heard warbling their cheerful lays
the first warm days in February
Soon they make and seek places in
which to build their nesU a hollow
apple tree, a vacated woodpecker's
hole, a martin box, or even a gourd
with a hole in it and placed a few
feet above the ground is good enough
for them.
At first they are very timid, but
as nothing molests them they be
come more bold. However, they
do not like to have near neighbors,
and the males often engage in fear
ful combats even when their re
spective places of abode are several
rods apart. They begin the attack
in the air, and falling to the ground
continue the struggle until entirely
exhausted. I have often approach
ed within a few feet of them and
watched tliem seyeral minutes.
Sometimes they will lie by each
other panting lor some time, and
j then renew the engagement. But
the martin does not put in an ap
pearance till late in March ; first the
males, and some days later the
females.
At first the martin is very timid,
especially the female, and where the
bluebirds have possession of a box
it is very easy generally to hold the
martins at bay, but no bluebird
would dare to make himself at home
in a box occupied by martins. But
sometimes the martins grow very
bold. In the spring the bluebirds
took possesson of the box which
stands in front ofthe door where I
am writing. We placed another box
about three rods distant from the
first box. which was soon occupied
by martins; at first there was some
sparring between the birds, but final
ly they settled down and I expected
everything to go on nicely, but one
evening just before sundowu another
male martin arrived, and at once
made an attack on the bluebirds,
which were then incubating. Sever
al times the birds fell to the ground,
but the martin is too high minded
to wallow in the dirt, so he was im
mediately on the wing. At nightfall
the bluebirds were in peaceful pos
session of their fort. The next morn
ing I was up early to see if the
martins would renew the attack. In
a few moments the martin swooped
dawu to the box and were promptly
met by the bluebird. They flew
forcibly against each other and fell,
but the martin was up again and at
the box, followed by the bluebird.
Several time3 they came ti the
ground, but each time the martin
sought the box. Soon the bluebird
paused a moment on the ground.
It was a fat?l pause. The martin
got into the box, and sat in one of
tne doors. The bluebird renewed
the fight, and got the martin by the
foot and drew him out, but like an
arrow he was in again. This time
he kpt his feet out of the way and
presented his widespread jaws. Both
bluebirds flew at him, but he would
catch and hold them until they were
glad to get away. All day the fight
was kept up, but that evening the
bluebirds retreated. In't wo or three
days the martin found a female
which took the precaution to throw
out the eggs of the bluebirds. Now,
all day the bluebirds sat on a peach
tree near by. uttering a plaintiff cry,
so I made another box and placed it
scarcely higher than my head. In
an hour the bluebirds were cheerful
and soon began to build. The young
bluebirds have been out several
days,' and there are young martins
in the other box.

Where to go for Wild Ducks.
A young man from Louisville got
! wild on the question of ducks at Oc
'said.
" It ain't, eh ? Well, I saw more'n
a million of them to-day up in the
marshes."
The conversation was continued
for some time, the upshot being that
the youth who had seen the ducks
finally converted a Chicago man,
and the two made preparations to go
after them in the morning.
Long before daylight tiie pair were
up, and just as the gray began to
appear in the east, they rolled out of
town in a spring wagon.
Arriving at the swamp they took a
boat and paddled about for some
time, leaving their driver, a product
of this stony soil, to look out for the
horses and the lunch. The driver, a
gentleman who knows ducks when
he sees them, tells the rest of the
story :
"The boys got separated after
awhile," he says, ' the Louisville
chap keeping the boat, and swearing
that he would uncover the birds,
and the Chicago man wading around
with rubber boots cn. cussin' his
luck, and saying he knew there
wa'n't no ducks all the time. Pretty
soon we heard a dreadful fusilade
over where Louisville wan supposed
to be. It sounded like the roll of
musketry in battle, and you would
have been willing to bet that no one
man with a single breech-loader
could make such a racket. Well, we
crept along as carefully as we could
until we came to a little opening
where we could see Mr. Louisville.
He was standing in the water and
mud waist deep, and was laying
about him right and left with his
gun. The slaughter was terrific.
hen he spied us he looked kinder
wild-eyed, and made a motion to us
to keep down, as if we would skeer
the game. He had the boat hall
sunk with dead game, and hinls
were lying around in the water eve
rywhere. We saw right away that
the fellow was having too much fun
and I called to him to let up until
we could get there. As we approach
ed he says, ' Come e-e-easy, boys, or
you'll skeer the ducks.' ' Ducks !'
I says; 'you condemned lunatic,
them ain't ducks, them's mud hens!'
Well, his jaw fell a couple of inches
right away, but he has a kind of an
idea to this day that they were
ducks, after all. There's this about
it that fellow had the best hunting
for an heur or two anybody will get
in Wisconsin this fall. He had kill
ed more'n sixty mud hens, and if
we'd let him alone he'd have sunk

How Much Wheat Seed Per Ai re.
Where wheat is not at all crowded
in a rich, mellow soil, and the tiller
ing is not impeded, the average num
ber of stems for each plant is about
sixteen. Each one produces a head
or ear, containing on an average, un
der reasonably favorably conditions
fifty grains. Thus one grain yields
eight hundred grains. At this rate
the man who sows two bushels to
the acre, would harvest sixteen hun
dred buhels per acre or else much
of the seed it lost. Theaverage yield
of the country, however is less than
fifteen bushels per acre. A bushel
of wheat contains, ordinarily, 7o0,( 00
grains ; two bushels, one mirlion five
hundred thousand gTains. An acre
of land contains slightly aboye six
million square inches. Sothateach
plant has four square inches from
which to derive sustenance. Measure
that on the ground and see how
small it is. Can you expect the

it to tillerand produce sixteen stems

those that do, tiller imperfectly.
The same is true of earing. Full

Buckwheat Culture.
This is a grain well known to
most Northern farmers. It is said
to have leen formerly called Beech
wheat owing to its "resemblance to
the common beechnut of the for
est. It grows quickly, even on light,
poor soils, but attaing perfection,
giving remunerative crops, only on
land quite rich in fertilizing proper
ties. Sandy soil with a dry subsoil
is best adapted to its culture, espe
cially if it be an old pasture field re
cently plowed.
At the North it is usually sown
about the first of July, and should
not vary ten days from the date
named. If sown" earlier, the dry,
hot days of August and September
often blast the kernel when forming,
while if the seeding be neglected un
til about the first of August, it is ex
tremely liable to be injured by frosts
before reaching maturity.
Buckwheat is a crop for the care

enterprising one. The labor of pre
paring the land comes when the
hurry and bustle of " spring work "
are past, only the growing corn de

respect often letting their cheapest

extent, brought the cultivation of
this crop into disrepute. Yet it is &
grain that will respond generously

From two to four pecks is the
quantity of seed sown per acre. Two
varieties are grown, the black and

sidered the best to yield, but will
not stand the hot weather quite as
well as the former. By means ofthe
new patent process buckwheat flour
is produced as white as that made

When the great traveler. Baron

that was followed by a fearful con

safety of the earth were destroyed in
