    A Kevenreful Owl.
A remarkable Instance of intelligence
shown by an owl In conceiving and
curving out a prelect of vengeance on
a farm laborer who bad destroyed
w hole family of young-ones before they
bad gained the requisite strength to
take wing, I related by a French pro
ScW journal, owl bad bunt 1U
lest in an old oat tree which grew
uer a farm In the commune of Beau
vry. Its mate bad laid during the
mouth ol July several eggs, which in
due time developed into a promising
progeny of young birds. A farm labor
er, moved by a sentiment of aversion
for owls, which is common in country
parts, determined a few days ago to
cut short the lives of the young ones,
aud. choosing a favorable opportunity
put bis project into execution. The
iiaatit owl were taken away from the
maternal nest and massacred, but by
w hat followed it will be seen the par
eut birds did not allow their tragical
fate to remain unavenged. On several
evenings succewding that during which
the nest tad been plundered, the vil
lagers returning from the fields re
marked the male owl flying In an
agitated manner round the farm, but
no attention was paid to the circu in
stance, which was put down to a lin-
gtrii g attachment on the part of the
bird to the spot where the nest had
bten. The eyent proved, however,
that it haunted the neighborhood ol
the oak tree from an instinct of re
venge, an d was lying iu wait for the
destroyer of its family. During a
whole week it hovered near the farm,
biding Its time and at length the right
memtnt arrived, The young man who
bad so ruthlessly exterminated the
bicod of owls w as crossing the thres
hold of the farm at dusk when the
bereaved bird swooped down on him
from the tree where it was keeping
watch, and w ith surprising swiftness
tore out his left eye w ith lis claws.
The Intolerable pain caused by this
kudden attack made the victim swoon
away. When he recovered conscious
Let, and bad his wound d rested, he
leiated the circumstances under which
he had received it, and a search was
instituted to discover whether the owl
was still lurking in the vicinity.

The unicorn is generally regarded as
belonging more to the realm of fancy
than that of fact,yet according to M. A.
T. de Rochebrune, of the Freuce Acad
emy of Sciences,a race of arimals exists
in Africa which resemble the fabulous
unicorn more than any other living
Uastdoe?. It is true that the is animal
has two other horns like those of a cow
but since there are "mooly" cows hav
ing no side horns, there may be simi
larly unfinished animals among these
beasts described by il. DeKochebrune,
Iu which case they would present all
the iharat ttrlsius of the distinguish
ed uuicoru who Is popularly supposed

p'jesessiou of the crown. At. lie
iiochebrune says : Naturalists and
travelers, for unknown reason, have
krpt the most absolute silence as to
a race of domestic cattle belonging to

greater part of its African relations, to

thtm Id beast ot burden under the
uuiue of carrier cattle. Au eminently
exceptional characteristic distinguishes
thtm fibui other races; this character
istic consists cf a genuine horn in the

and even in its mode of development
with the frontal horns. Belonging to
the females as well as the males, this
horn, sometimes conical but more fre

luurtided truncated p rauid, reaches
a height ol 21i to xA inches, a width
ol 2 inches, aud a thickness of 1)2

while the jtuiainin' lorty will not
have it, but will have a l.atal hollow

a horny plate, thin and rough. There

ol this animal, but tie chief one la the

Xot long ago a German physician
greatly gratified people who liked to
lie abed late iu the rooming by assur
ing them that, physiologically consid
ered, there is every reason to believe
that early rising is a total mistake, bad
alike lor the body and the mind. Ben
jamin Franklin's maxions in regard to
the subject were held to be entirely
misleading, and the truth was that
early to bed and early to rise made
men anything but healthy and wealthy
and wife. '1 he London Lancet, bow
ever, says that the German doctor's no
tions must have been evolved from his
inner consciousness, since they had no
Justification in facts. Men working with
brains especially many of whom, it
the production of literary work can
lairly be considered peculiarly exhaust
ing to the brain, have always been no
torous lie-abeds should, says the Lan
cet, rise at 6 o'clock or thereabouts in
the morning, eat a slice of bread or
drink a cop of tea, after which they
may "enjoy the priceless luxury of
to or three hours of work when the
brain is clear aud the distractions ot
thn day's ordinary business have not
begun to assail them." Il is a mistake,
however, ior people who are weakly
or over 40 years old. to "tub" imme
diately after rising. The bath should
be delered till the tea or a glass ot milk
and a brief spell of work or a short
walk has stimulated the powers and
render them capable of reacting readily
under the stimulus of the bath. As
both the Lancet which recommends the
latter course and the eminent German
physician who recomends the former,
are excellent authorities, our readers
cannot do better than to follow the one
to which they more naturally incline.

A Sqamw-s SoIcHIe.
iwthalu of November last Old
c-....v, ha I'm chief, accompanied
h . number of Apache squaws and
children, encamped on the ranch of
Thomas O. Boggs, oa the Tramperes
Creek, In New .Mexico. As the small
pox has been killing hundreds or
Indiaus and Mexicans in that region,
Mr. Boggs felt suspicious that there
might be some cases among this band,
but on being questioned the Indians
denied the presence of the disease
among them. In about a week after
the arival of the party, a squaw, the
mother ol two children, was taken with
the disease. This caused the Indians
to leave suddenly for, the hills, leaving
the squaws to take care of themselves.
About nine days afterwards the sick
woman died, and her mother (grand
mother to the remaining child) took
the little one with her and fled to the
hills, leaving the dead squaw, tepee,
robes and blankets and taking up her
abode about half a mile from Mr.
Boggs' house. That gentleman bad
the dead fquaw buried, and the tepee
aud other property remain where
they were left. The old squaw
and the child were provided
with food by Mr. Boggs, and seemed
perfectly happy. On the Wednesday
following persons at Mr. Boggs' house
heard, as they supposed, the child
making a noise. Mr. Charles Boggs
went to search for the squaw and child,
aud alter a long hunt succeeded in
finding a hut in the timber where they
had been living. A horrible sight
met his view on his arrival ; the old
woman lay dead aud cold, covered
with blood. She had taken half a pair
of sheep-shears and driven it into her
heart. The little child was sitting be
side the dead squaw, crying and strik
ing her with a stick, talking to her iu
the Indian language, aud vainly en
deavoring to make her get up. The old
woman, however, was past awakening,
and the little one's grief seemed incon
solable. All of the persons at the
house hastened to the scene and sev
eral ot them endeavored to coax the
child away liom the dead bouy of its
grandmother, but without success.
T he little one couid not understand
that its natural protector was beyond
rendering it any aid, and with brute
instinct w as loath to leave. Mr. Boggs
kindly took the child and it then walked
to his haute. The little unfortunate's
cloihitg wis covered with blood, aud
on stripping it, its new protectors
found a dtep gash directly over the
heart, w here the old squaw had evident
ly plunged the blade of the shears.with
the intention of taking the little one's
life as well as her own. The murderess
had failed to strike the child's heart,
but it was thought to be bleeding in
ternally and it is probably dead by
this time. There was no appearauce
of small-rcx about the dead woman or I
I
child, and it is more than probable
that the tu.uaw, Leart-brokeu at thus
being deserted, and ftariug death by !
fniall-pox or starvation, put an end
to Ltr troubles in this world as above
related.

On the streams in Southern Oregon the
beaver is aiost abundant, and one shal
low which an English traveler recently
came accidently upon was literally
filled with beaver houses. There must
have been many hundred habitations,
as the hike was a mile in width, aud
around it the trees were felled in all
directions, as it the land was being
cleared for farming. (J ute as many
trees are cut by the beaver's sharp
teeth to procure food as to construct
& ams ; the bark of the topmost branches
of the aspen being its favorite diet. A
beaver is a very difficult animal to trap.
The trapper knows at a glance the var
ious marks of the animal, called signs;
these discovered, the next operation is
to find how the beaver gets to his
house, which is generally in shallow
water. Then a steel trap Is sunk In the
water, care being being taken to regu
late the depth, so that it may not be
more than twelve or fourteen inches
below the surface: this is accomplish
ed by their rolling in a log or building
in large stones, immediately over the
trap is the bait, made lrom the castor,
or medicine gland of the beater, sus
pended from a stick, so as just to clear
the water. With a long cord and log
of cedar wood and a buoy to mark the
position of the trap when the beaver
swims away with it the trap is com
plete. The poor little builder, per
haps returning to his home and family,
scents the tempting castor purposely
placed in his road ; he can not reach it
as be swims, so he leels about with his
hind legs for something to stand on ;
this, too; has been craftily placed for
him. Putting his feet to stretch up
for the coveted morsel, be finds them
suddenly clasped in an Iron embrace,
an-1 there is no hope of eseape. The
log, revealing his hidden place, is
seized by the trapper, and the Impris
oned beaver dispatched by a single
blow on the head, and the trap set
again. A trapper will sometimes spend
many weeks camping near & good
beaver village. About sixty thousand
skins are now biou ;ht from the Bud
sou Bay company's territories, but a
great many skins are also procured
from various places in Europe and the
north of Asia. The principal use made
of the fur now Is in, the manufacture
of bonnets in France, and in making
cloaks,
Biinpl Pneumatic Experiment.
A series ot papers have been com

show bow physical truths may be de

first paper treats on pneumatics.
Among the experiments, many oi
which are old. Is one in which some
paper is burnt in a bottle full of air.
After it has burnt afewseconde,a hard
boiled egg with the shell off, la placed
at its mouth. The egg is pressed Inward

AGRICULTURE.
To Gtr i Large Yield of Rich
Mile. If a large yield of rich milk Is
desired, give your cows, every day,
water slightly salted. In which bran
has been stirred at the rate of one qnart
to two gallons of water. You will find
if you have not tried this daily prac
tice, that your cows will give 25 per
cent more milk immediately under the
effects of it, and will become so accus
tomed to the diet as to refuse to drink
clear water, unless very thirsty. Prof.
J. W. Sanborn, Superintendent of the
college farm, Hanover, X. 11., reports
experiments in feeding cows, giving
full details of weights of each kind of
feed, of milk and butter yield, and the
weixhU of the animals at the begin
ning and end of each period. In sum
ming up he says : "ileal will make
more milk than bran, I no longer hes
itate to say. The change In the butter
product is remarkable; in changing
lrom meal to bran there was a loss of
11-7 percent in the butter-producing
capacity of milk; in changiug from
bran to meal there was a gain in the
butter-producing capacity of milk of
21-8 per cent." "The results in weigh
ing (he cows form au exception to pre
vious experiments, bran and middlings
keeping weight better than meal in
this experiment. Is it a chance results
asks the professor, or Is it due to well
defined causes ? I will not discuss it,
he answers, but observe that it was not
at the season of the year when a cow
needs a carbonaceous food to maintain
animal -heat ; also the grass of our pas
ture was browned ,and in dilierent con
dition lrom June grass of properly cut
day."

experienced cider maker says; I have
been engaged in the manufacture of
cider aud cider vinegar for many years,
and have kept cider for two years so
that w heu urawn at that lime it was
bright, sparkling, sweet, and delici
ous. 1 ue process is very simple. All

three quarter incu tap hole in the head

Horn the chime iu a straight liue from
the bung hole. Then plac the cider
in a cooi cry cellar. After it is worked
st-tlicieiuly, which will probably,
be iu a Meek or less, draw It off care
tuily, so as to not disturb the sediment

rel aud place back upon the skids as

drawiug aguiu iu a month or so. then
repeat tlie process, and in a few days
hung up the barrels. Then about the
latter part ol March draw again,wheu,
if properly Uianugtd before, there will
be but a very little sediiueut. Fill the
barrels lull, bung tight, and ciJer can
be kept sweet anu good for two years
if thus treated.

W intlow Blinds.
An entirely novel article in tiie way
of blinds icr windows has been intro
duced. The movable slats consist en
tirely of glass.elther plain, pure white
or colored, any desired tin; and cut.
The slats have no staples or rods to
operate them or interfere with the en
trance of light. Each slat has formed
on it at one end a small pulley, around
which a cord passes which operates all
of the slats simultaneously. For In
side shutters these slats are exceeding
ly well adapted, as they may be of glass
colored to match the carpets and up
holstery. Of course curtains and shades
are wholly unnecessary where this
blind is nsed, and it admits ot having
any desired color of light In the room.
It affords good ventilation and pre
vents the entrance of mosquitoes and
flies. It never needs painting, It Is al
ways fresh and new, and Is ornament
al rather than otherwise. Considering
its durability and elegance this blind
is not expensive. The slats may be
cut and engraved.increasing its beauty
to any desired extent, and It affords an
efficient protection against burglars.
It effectually excludes vision from the
outside, while it offers no Impediment
to the entrance of light, and the light
w hith enters la so softened and diffus
ed as to be incapable of Injuring the
eyes, or of fading delicate colors in
carpets and furniture.
DOMESTIC.
How to Cook Hominy. Every cook
will promise you she can do this, but
It Is qui'e safe to say that not one In
fifty will. Instead, people live to old
age in this our famous corn-growing
region without having ever tasted well
cooked hominy. It Is usually started
well enough, but stirred so often and
vigorously that the grains, Instead of
standing out snowy and well done.yet
round and separate, are mingled In
one gluey mass. Having once seen
and tasted the former you will never
be reconciled to the latter. Try to pre
pare it in this way : A quart of ground
hominy is a sufficient quantity to pre
pare well in any ordinary cocking
utensil; It is better to soak for a while
before cooking; put over the fire and
cover well with water ; do not allow It
to boil rapidly, and if tne fire is a suffi
cient cue for baking it is better to keep
a lid beneath it. It cannot be hurried,
and here is where many fail in its pre
paration. After the grains swell and
begin to soften ou no account stir it.
The water put in at first should be
sufficient to finish it, but if there has
been too little add more, carefully, that
it may be just enough and not too
much, thus making your almost per
fect dish sloppy. Do not salt It until
just before taking from the stove.
Early salting will make II dark. II it
could be cooked in a double vessel, the
outer one containing boiling water, so
much the better for both tiie hominy
and cook. Such vessels save the care
of constant watching. Care and ex
perience must always go together to
ward the making of a perfectly cooked
dish, and nothing gives better satis
faction. Fbesch Wat or Washing Cloths s.
A system of wasuing clothes has
lately been introJuced in some French
towns which is worthy of special men
tion. Its economy is so great as to re
duce the cost. This is the process : Two
pounds of soap are reduced with a lit
tle water to a pulp, w hich having been
slightly heated, is cooled in ten gallons
of water, to which Is added one spoon
ful ot turpentine oil aud two ol am
monia; then the mixture is agitated.
The wa-er is kept at a temperature
which may be borne by the hand. In
this solution the white clothes are left
for two hours before washing them
with soap, taking care in the meantime
to cover the tub. The solution may
be warmed aain and used once uior?,
but It will be necessary to add half a
spoonful of turpentine oil and another
spoonful of ammonia. Once washed
with soap, the clothes are put in hot
water, and the blue is applied. Ibis
process, it is obvious, saves much time
aud fuel, while it gives to the clothes a
whiteness much superior to that ob
tained by any other-process, and the
destructive use ot the w ashboard is not
necessary to clean the clothes from im
purities. The best to make Buttered Toast.
Is to have a small bowl of boding
water on the ran ire. in which nut at
good bit of butter. A? you draw each
piece of toast from the fork dip it in :
the hot water until It Is thoroughly I
moist, then place it In a plate, keeping
it w arm until you have finished toast- I
ing all the slices. Dip each one as it 1
comes smoking hot from the toaster, j
When all are done, if you have any of ;
the hot water and melted butter re-.
maining in the bowl pour it over the I
pile of toast. Toast that is allowed to I
get cold before being buttered is tough '
aud Indigfstib e. When newly but-
tered and kept hot in the oven, it is too
oily, but the bowl of just enough hot i
water and butter keeps it fresh and ;
tender. j
j
Chiceen C'ctmis. Remove the :
breast and leg bones of two ciiii V"ns. I
Skin them and cir. into outlet-, fteKtt
with pepper and salt. Put the bones j
and trimmings into a stew pan witlr a :
pint of water, adding two carrots, an
ulon, aud some strips or lemon peci. j
Stew lor an hour and a half. Strain j
the gravy thicken with batter and
flour A.1.1 two tablespoontuls of .
mushroom ketchup an,l an egg . we ,u ,
beaten. Mir over the fire and siu.mer
without letting it boil. Egg and
bread-crumb the cutlets, aud moisten
them w ith clarified buiter. Fry them
ligbt brown color, and keep turning
them. Dish them neatly and pour the
sauce over them.
Fried Chiceen in ccrrt. Cut up
a chicken into small pieces, melt some
butter in a saucepan, and put into It
an onion shred very fine, fry until
aulte crisp.sprinkle the fowl well with
curry powder, add some salt, and fry j
until tnorougniy cooaeu, turning me
pieces frequently. Serve very, hot,
with the tried onions on the top.
Veal can be cut Into cutlets and used
in the same way, except that atur the
pieces of veal are partially fried, when 1
they begin to brown, put them into a
stew-pan with one pint of stock, sim
mer very slow ly, as veal requires much
cooking; garnish with boiled rice in a
separate dish.
The unique paper lamp-shades so
fashionable just now cau be made very
easily. Fold a sheet of starlet tissue
paper In center forming a half-?quare,
then fold again into a quarter-square,
then into au eighth ; continue folding
in this way as long as possible, always
folding from the center. Holding the
thick part firmly in one hand draw it
through the other till the paper is tho
roughly creased ; then partly unfold
and draw It through the band from
the center to the outer edge. When it
has become well creased cut enough
from the center to allow of its slipping
over the lamp shade.
Everton Tapnt. Put one pound of
powdered loaf sugar and one ttacupful
of water into a brass pac ; beat one
quarter of a pound of butter toa cream,
w hen the sugar is dissolved add the
butter, and keep stirring the mixture
over the fire until it sets when a little
is poured on a buttered disli.- Just be
fore it is done add s x drops of essence
of lemon. Butter a tiu, pour on the
mixture, and when cool it will easily
separate from the dish.
Liver Hash This hash Is delicate
and appetizing, and nice as a change
from the liver and bacon known to ali
cooks. Boll the liver until thoroughly
tender there must net be even a sus
picion of hardness about it. Then
mince it finely with a chopping knife.
Heat the mince very hot in a sauce
or roux of butter and browned flour.
The seasoning is pepper, salt, a dash of
lemon or a little piquant sauce, such
as mushroom catsup.
Naples Bread. One pound ot flour ;
rub into it one ounce of fresh butter,
one egg, two spoonfuls of good yeast, a
little salt, htlt a pint of milk; mix all
well ; let it rise one hour; do not work
it down, but cnt it in pieces the size of
your thumb; bake on tins in a quick
oven.
Homb-Made Soda Water. Squeeze
the juice from a lemon, strain and add
it to a tuuibier of cold water; sweeten
to taste. When well mixed put in half
a small teaspoonful of carbonate of
soda, stir well and drink while the
mixture is in an effervescing state.
Celery Salt. Save the' root of the
celery plant, dry and grate it, mixing
it with one-third as much salt. Kc?p
in a bottle well corked, and it is de
licious for soups, oysters, gravies or
hashes.
Dishcloths. I will tell how to make
dishcloths. Get a pair of wooden need
les and one ball cf caiidle wlcking;set
up a row of twenty stitches, knit back
and forth until you nse cp the ball,
then It will be done nice, soft,
thick dishcloth.
HUMOROUS.
Some facetious loafer in Baltimore
perpetrated a curious sell on the public
during the recent sesqul-centennial
celebration. He attached to a demol
ished window In a ship-chandlery es
tablishment on Thames street, placard
bearing the inscription : "This win
dow was O broken during the bom
bardment of fort Mellenry in 1814."
The O on the placard was a knot taken
from a boafd, but was not particularly
noticed by anybody, though hundreds
gapinly gazed upon the supposed bom
bardment relic, and one man even
broke off a little piece of glass to carry
away.
A okxtlbmax met h's little boy on
the street and asked him how they
were all coming on at home. "First
rate. Mamma has made a whole new
shirt," "Tell mamma when I come
I'll give her a nickel." "Better give
it to me." "You didn't make the
shirt." "If I hadn't kept my eye on
her she would have been leaning over
the fence talking about the fashions in
stead of working. I ought to be en

When the old sailor came borne from
a whaling voyage he saw at once what
ailed the preaching. "The minister's
smart enough, and he says a great
many things, but the sermon don't
have any harpoon in It." The farmer
meant the same thing when he said of
the clergyman : "He's a good man,
but he will rake with the leetlt up."
"Hallo, there, how do you sell
wood?" "By the cord." "Pshaw!
how long has it been cut?" "Four

"No longer than it is now." "See
here, old fellow; you are too all-fired
bright to live long."
Tus principal of Vassar College

Solar Activity. A remarkable solar
protuberance was observed by M.
Thollon, on August 30, at the Paris
Observatory. About 11 . tn. he saw
it rise from the eastern limb, as a ver
tical, thin and very brilliant luminous
jet. The displacement of the line C in
the spectroscope corresponded to a ve
locity of 33 kilometres per second, and
the protuberance rose to a height equal
to half the solar radius, or about S43,
000 kilometres. After rising it enlarg
ed to prodigious dimensions, its
brightness sensibly diminishing, es
pecially near the base. By about 1 p.
m. it had become hardly visible. A
curious tact is, that while the lower
and middle part of this protuberance
gave a deviation of the line C toward
the violet, the top presented a nearly
equal deviation toward the red. Mr.
W. R. Brook', Red House Observa
tory.Phelps, N. Y.,writes to The Scitn
tific American: "One ot the very finest
groups of sun spots it has ever been my
pleasure to witness was observed by
me through the five inch Newtonian
telescope on the morning of September
12, 1SS0. It was Eltuated then about
oildwar from the centre of the sun's
disk and the western limb south of the
equator. Its length was enormous,
occupying a space equal to one-quarter
of '.he sun's diameutr, and therefore
over 200,000 miles In length. The whole
group was remarkable for Its brilliance
and distinctness."
Grateful Womrn.
None receive so much benefit, and
none are so profoundly grateful and
show such an interest in reoomending
Hop Bitters as women. It is the only
remedy peculiarly adapted to the many
ills the sex is almost universally sub
ject to. Chills and fever, Indigestion
or deranged liver, constant or per
iodical sick headaches, weakness In the
back or kidneys, pain in the shoulders
and different parts of the body, a feel
ing of lassitude and despondency, are
all readily removed by these Bitters.

The Xeie ilintr,t Lamp. According
to the London Telegraph, one of the
greatest boons to miners, on the score
of safety, is the new miner's lamp. In
which the light of phosphorescence is
substituted lor that of positive ignition.
In this apparatus the interior ot the
screen U covered with a brightly lu
minous paint, and there is therefore,
nothing In Its construction or character
that can by any menus become a source
of danger. Such a contrivance, if an
swering the capscity claimed for It,
must be of peculiar value, pecuniarily
considered, in preventing the destruc
tion of property by explosion. But the
great advantage of such a lamp over
those now in common use is its insur
ing against a peril from which the
Iuvy lamp cannot protect the work
man. If Hint lamp be carried agaiata
current of air mixed with fire-damp,
the explosive gas penetrates through
the gauze and comes in actual contact
with the flame, a catastrophe being the
natural result of such con;act ; obvious
ly, however, no risk of tils sort could
be involved in the nse of a phosphores
cent light by miners.
The nation that may advance with
hostile intentions against Japan a few
years hence, mut be prepared to count
the cost. Iu 1S72 Japan established au
arsenal at Tokio, Osaka, and Oji on
plans furnished by Freuch artillery
otllcers. Three years later, so well
bad the native workmen learned their
duties, the Tokio arsenal turned out
93,'.l0 caps. 4.").0X'0 ball and blank car
tridges, 101,000 Snyder cartridges, and
20,oijO rouuds of artillery ammunition.
At the Osaka arsenal during the first
year of its completion 2tH) 4-pounder
bronze field-guns were finished, and
100 4-pounder mountain howitzers, be
sides the wood and iron work ot sev
eral field batteries, and 3.0U0 sets of
harness and horse equipments.

From the tnouiriet conducted by Prof.

It appears that sliort-sigmeuness

called, is seldom fou-d among pupil
ot village schools, and its frequency
inc reuses in proportion to tue uemanu
maile upon the eye in higher schools
and in colleges. A better construction
of school desks, and improved typo
graphy of text-books, and a sulucient
lighting of class rooms are the remedies
proposed to abate this malady.

A recently patented fierman process
for making rancid butter sweet is to
knead it with perfectly clear lime wa

ly washed with pure water. The
rancidiiy is caused by the presence
of certain Iree acids, which are neu
tralized by the lime..
