s An Innocent Drummer. lie bade bis wife a tearful good-bye. "Mr love, my only one! The time will soon be bere when I shall be In a position to snap my finger at fate and set up as my own boss. Then we shall have no more of these cruel part ings.'' "And you will be true to me?" "As I always am," be responded. You did not forget to put that . photo you had especially taken for me in my 'grip-sack,' did you?" t)h, dear, no. Are you sure you will look at it sometimes, love?" You wicked doubter! You know that I should be wretched without at least such a semblance of my pet to look at daily and nightly." Draw the veil of charity oyer bis grief and the treachery of one in whom ' be bad such unbounded contlience. In brief, she, his only love, his pet, bis wife, had secretly planned to make him "wietclwd." Sne had taken that photograph from his grip-sack, and was gloating over his misery when he should discover that only memory re mained to him. for the time being, of bis darling's looks. 'The dear fellow, how he will scold me for the trick," she thought; bat I will send him the photograph in the Bret letter I write to him." Thus appeasing her conscience she waited for his first letter. It came from Chicago. "My heart's delight," it began. "Got here O. K. this a. m. Have been wrestling with the trade all day, and a tough time I've bad of it. Weary and fagged I have retired to my roam, shut out the gilded atmosphere of sin that envelopes this terrible city, and taken from my satchel your sweet picture. It is before me as I write. 1 shall kiss it when I have said my evening prayers. It will rest under my pillow. It is my one solace until I bold you, my sweet wife, in these faithful arms again." Thus far had she read, then she top pled over on the lloor. What comfort she found there it is hard to say, but a great determination rose with the stricken wife, who went out an hour later and sought a telegraph office. Her husband had been saying his prayers abroad that evening, and when he got to his hotel about midnight his spiritual emotions received a rude shock by a telegram from bis "only love." I It was elaborate for a dispatch, bur under the circumstances one could not expect an outraged wife to transmit her feelings by the slow mail. The dis patch read: "You are no longer me oniy uruni' mer who is not a tsar, as you have al wavs claimed. Let the fraternity make you their chief in the art. Had you taken the pains even to look for the photograph you say your prayers to you would nave aiscoverea mat i nau to tea.se vou removed it. My faith in you is dead!" The husband clutched his hair. "Why, what did I write to her, any way?" he muttered. After awhile his face cleared. 'By Jove! I must have been piling on the taffy. That's what a man gets for trying his best to make a woman feel good! Toor little dear, what a fume she must be in! Lucky for me she gave her grievance away. What geese women are! Bless her little nod dle; her faith shall be resurrected. " Forthwith he telegraphed to a know ing friend: Send me, first mail, photograph of my wile. Beg, borrow, steal it, get it somehow. Mum's the word. Will write all particulars soon." About a week later a drummer, in dignified martyrdom, stood face to face with stern but very wept-out wife. She expected to see him meek and humble, but be gazed upon her with much scorn, and then he passed on to his room in crushing silence. She was amazed. With quick im pulse she followed, thanking heaven he bad not locked her out. "Well," she began, with wavering courtesy, "what have you got to say for yourself now?" Coldly, cruelly he looked at her. 'I?" he queried. "Woman, if it were not for the overmastering love I bear for you, I should never look upon you again!" Ills face convulsed with tragic suf fering that was balm to her heart to witness, but she on'.y sneered: "Can you explain the deception you tried to practice uion me?" "Can you obliterate the insult put upon your husband in that unwomanly dispatch? A woman with so little confidence in her husbaud would be better off to live alone. For my part, I am not only disgusted, but disen chanted." lie turned sorrowfully away and bowed bis face in his bauds. She ap proached him and laid the letter which bad caused her such grief under bis eyes. "Jlead that. Knowing you had no picture of mine, what was 1 to think?" "What any intelligent, right-minded wife would have thought; you would have said to yourself: 'lie is incapable of deceif.be has my picture, somehow." "But you did not have it" lie looked at her with sad, resigned sorrow. His Hps quivered as he sadly murmured: "Oh. woman! without an atom of faith!" Then he put his baud in bis pocket and produced Ler photograph. "Oh, darling, forgive me! This old thing, taken long before we were en gaged! W hy. I didn't know you ever had one of these!" Tbe restored confidence made ber pretty b!ue eyes swim m tearful joy febe put her arms around him, asking bis pardon, caressing even his coat collar. "My dear," said he, looking into her face with grave, but loving reproach. "let this be a warning. 'ever doubt me again, no matter what appearances may 1. I can always look you square ly In the eye, and say, I am innocent.' " And sue believed mm. A Princa in HiH Feather. Frince Carl, of Sweden, is six feet h'2i aad twenty-three years old, the favorite of the royal family, with broad shoulders, and a face of the classical tyie.

That a stove may, under certain con ditions, prove as dangerous to life as a leaking gas pipe has been lately dem onstrated In a number of instances lately, remarks tbe Sanitary Plumber. The possibility of danger which attach es to the negligent use of a coal stove is scarcely as well understood as might be expected. It might tend to increase carefulness in this direction if the fact trere more generally known that the gas from coal does not simply suffocate by the exclusion of air, but is a direct and active poison by reason of tbe car bonic oxide which it contains. The users of coal stoves In which fire is kept all night cannot be too careful to see that uninterrupted communication is preserved between the stove and the chimney. The miniature gas factory may by a trifling accident prove as fa tal as an open gas burner. HOUSEHOLD Val Salad. Mix one-half tea.

Ik framing a picture covered with glass, be it a water-color, a photograph, or an engraving,there is one precaution which should always be adopted, but is too often neglected the glass should fit the frame exactly, and should be ce mented to the wood inside by a slip of thick paper. This should be glued all rouid the frame, and if done properly, will exclude all dust, dirt and undesir able vapors. Tbe backboards, too, should be well papered, so that the pic ture may rest in a dust proof and air tight receptacle. ConroTE of Fecit. Flace in a stewpan two pounds sugar with half a pint of water; let it dissolve, and boll for ten minutes, taking off the scum as It rises; then throw in about twenty- four gooseberries, twenty-four straw berries, twenty-four raspberries and several bunches of red and white cur rants; when all are in allow the com pote to get cold; cut one dozen small sponge-cakes into slices, overlap them in a circular manner on the dish, then with a spoon place the fruit in the cen tre of the dish; add tbe sirup and one glass of noyeau over the sponge-cakes.

A FrencJi geologist, Mons de LaoDa- rent called the attention of the Paris Geological Society to the effect gravita tion has in heaping up sea waters upon the land. The continents are thus ail situated at the tops of hills of water; and in crossing tbe Atlantic the shiD has first to go down hill, then to cross a valley, and finally to climb another bill. Tbe calculation has been made that in mid-ocean the surface may be more than half a mile (1,000 metres) below the level it would have if the continents exerted no attraction. "Youe father is entirely bald, isn't ce?" said a man to a son of a million aire, "Yes," replied the youth, sadly: 'I'm the only heir be has left," 1 jjvftniig I j during territory of Spain. Beyond these boundaries the muscatel grape. from which the raisin is produced, may grow and thrive abundantly, but the fruit must go to the market or the wine press. When the grape begins to ripen in August the farmer carefully in spects the fruit as it lies on the warm dry soil, and one by one clips the clus ters as they reach perfection. Inal- j mostllvineyards slants of masonry are wun prepared, looking liae ungtazeo. uoi of a I beds, and covered with fine pebbles, on I . . - a . t a. which the rruit is exposed 10 ary. jous the small proprietor prefers not to carry his fruit so far.

One by one tne buncbos are carefully inspected, those of the first quality being trimmed of all irregular ities and Imperfect berries and deposit ed in piles by themselves. So in turn are treated those of the second quality, while the clippings and inferior fruit are received into baskets at the feet of the trimmers and reserved for borne consumption. A quantity of small wooden trays are now brought forward just the size of a common ralsm box and about an inch deep. In these papers I am npatlv laid nnutn Ian over and cov r the raisins evenly deposited in the trays, which are then subjected to heavy pressure in a rude press. After pressing the raisins are dropped into boxes for market. Killixo Weeps with Kerosene. After trying all ways to exterminate Canada thistle and that next worst en emy of the farmer, plaintain, I discov ereu that kerosene oil Is a certain rem edy. Some may think my method ted' lous, but at best when yon wish to get rid of a patch of either pest, diligent work is iudisiiensaule. Early or late in summer, when ground is dry and weath er settled it is time to make theapplica tion. Take an old fruit can. solder on one side a handle, then whittle a pine stick round about two feet long, -now dip the stick into the oil and touch the plant allowing a few drops to run down tbe stalk; it will follow on down and cover every root if enough is used, and the result will reward any person who has pride In keepiag from lawn or field two of our worst weeds. If the this tles are very thick, a few may escape, which you will have to ki.l another year, but at worst two seasons work will whip them all. Tiie Quality of Grain. An eral nent authority insists that the quality of grain is best when the plants stand sparsely. In root crops, also, the lar ger tubers are, within certain limit, tbe larger the space allotted to theu growth; and In general the production of plants increase with tbe size of the space, because abundance of room im plies enough of light, beat and moist ure, and such a healthy condition of the plant that It is capable of resisting parasites. SroxGE the Horses. Dumb beasts 6ufler frightfully when the mercury is in tne nineties, street car horses and the animals compelled to drag trucks and heavy vehicles through the streets under the scorching rays of the sun, en dure unheard of torture while their drivers are lgnorantly urging them for ward, it would be wisdom ou tbe part of the men to sponge their horses' mouth as often as possible, and to bon net and sponge their heads whenever they can. Men who are supported by their horses should be kind to them. Experiments at the Canadian Mod el Farm Dhows that a cow previous to calving should be confined to a straw and bay diet and completely dried off; mat tne milking periods should be only once a day for awhile, then once In two days, and prolonging tbe iutt rva'.s as long as it is safe to do so. Hawks have a partiality for a tall pole, from whence they can survey the field before seizing their prey. The knowledge of this propensity of the hawk by tbe farmers sometimes induce the latter to erect poles at certain loca tion, at the top of which arj fastened stvel spring traps, which close when the hawks alight on them. A great many fields, especially those long and narrow, aie always plowed the same way. Simply chang ing the direction of working will often nuke a great increase iu productiveness The furrow cut across the old lines of furrows is not stopped by the same stones; while new soli is opened to the growth of plant roots. Croi'S of 200 bushels, and occasion ally over that amount of strawberries are rerortei to an acre, 100 bushels being only a fair crop, states Dr. Hos kins of Vermont, and at 10 cents a quart such a crop will return $470 per acre, more than ba'.f of which is clear prcfit. As a remedy for bee stings, a corres pondent sys; "When a person is stung by a bee or wasp let them take a little common whiting, .mix it with cold water into a paste, and apply it to tbe part affected. In a few minutes the pain will cease " The anxiety about frosted corn may be partially relieved by the fact that when untimely frost comes the grain robs the stalk to perfect Itself. Hence there will be more and better grain than is now expected but the fodder will possess less feeding value." Small fruit culture will always be most successful on the intensive plan. Fiant only a small area at a time, and give that the best culture possible. Bet ter raise 300 bushels on one acre than that amount on five or six. Irregularity in the amount of food given tbe cow will cause her some times to gradually dry up. So will worrying, fast driving, or excitement of any kind. An animal giving milk is very sensitive to bad treatment or sur rounding Influences. "What a goose you are! You couldn't hand in your heart as evidence in a breach of promise suit." S'iroeiler, in Germany, has been in vestigating the influence upon vegeta tion of the acid fumes which are pres ent in a smoke-laden atmosphere. He finds that one part of sulphurous acid on 51,000 parts of air Is capable of oc casioning serious damage to plants in a short time. They are less sensitive to hydrochloric acid. Coniferous trees are most sensitive to sulphurous acid, than deciduous trees, while ordinary field plants resist longer. Oaks, palms, elms, poplars and mountain ashes resist better than birches and beeches. Fruit trees are very sensitive; plums and cherries more so than pears and apples.

The ex periments relative to this lulLunmabllity of coal dust were devised as nearly as nearly as possible In accordance with the conditions prevailing in practice, and more than 290 testa were made, explosions occurring in every case when an electric spark was proaucea m dust cloud. John Marshall t It. S. says that if a person, especially a girl or woman, whose clothing is on Gre will lie down iu a horizontal position tbe flames will become for the time being nearly harm' less, and time will thus be gained for further action. The reason for this needs no explanation. He further rec ommends that there bo at every school an example of this fact at least once every term by means of two upright models, prepared alike and set'on fire simultaneously, tbe one being tlirown over after two seconds and the other after thirty seconds. The suggestion is a good one. An interesting experiment, showing the Influence of electricity on the growth of roots, has been made in Ger many by Professor Hodefieiss. - Plates of copper were thrust upright into the earth and connected by wires with aim' ilarly placed zinc plates, about 100 feet distant, an electric battery being thus formed, with the earth between the copper and zinc in the circuit. Both potatoes and beets planted between such plates gave an Increased yield beets 15 per cent., potatoes 25 per cent as compared with othr parts in the same field. Clouds Denenrtmt T'non Dust. In vestlgations by II. Von Ueltnholtz, de scribed to the Berlin lioyal Society, confirm the statements that the forma tion of cloud in saturated air is induced solely by particles of dust, and that the finer and sparser are the dust particles the more slowly is the cloud formed These results are also confirmatory of Prof. Tyndall's explanation that the blue color of the sky is due to floating oust. In Algeria there is a small stream which the chemistry of nature has turned into true ink It is formed by the union of two rivulets, one of which is very strongly Intrvegnated Ob iron while the other, meandering through peat marsh, imbibes gallic acid. Let ters have been written with this com' pound of iron and gallic acid which unite to form the little river. Animal tissues In undergoing putre factive decomposition give rise to very complex products, which are very soiu ble in water, and are extremely injun- ous. Unless thi water filters thro2? such a quantity of soil and soil of suce quality as will completely remove these products of decomposition, such water is unsafe, however far it vas.y have passed under ground. The attention of medical men in France has been directed to a new sleep-producing drug called hypnone, a distilled mixtuie of acetate of lime with benzoate of lime. It is claimed that the new drug produces none of the unpleasant arter-symptans of opium. The housew es of Norway make their common fiat-bread largely of tbe powdn d branches of the young pine, not so much to save flour as to secure a light loaf. Tbe bark proves to be not only iunulritious but actually injurious, and is now being denounced by medical men. 7Vo German physiologists have calcu lated the relative liability of injury to the eye, finding that, it all parts of tbe body were equally exposed to injury, wounds of the eye would bear to wounds of other parts the proportion of about 1 in GOO. As a matter of lact. the actual proportion is more than 20 times as great, or 30 iu 10U0. Native AVooing in New Zealand. When the Maoris ruled their own lind, the most usual way for obtaining a wife was for tbe gentleman to sum mon bis friends, and make a regular (ana or fight to carry off the lady by force, and oftentimes with great vio lence. - Even when a girl was bestowed lu marriage by ber parents, frequently some distant relatives would feel that they were aggrieved, and fancy thev bad a better right to her, as a wife for one of their, own' tribe, or, if the girl bad eloped with some one on whom she hid placed her affections,"theu ter father and brothers would refuse their consent, and in either case would carry tuna against the husband and bis friends, to regain possession of . the girL If confined in a bouse they would puu aown, ana li tuey gain access, then a fearful contest would ensue. The unfortunate female, thus placed between two contending parties, would soon ne aive&tea or every rag or cloth ing, and seized by the head, bair and umos; anj as inose wno contended f r her became tired of the struggle, fresh combatants would supply their plac- from the rear, climbing over tbe shoul ders of their friends, and so edge them selves into the mass immediately round the woman, whose cries and shriek were unheeded; thus the poor creature was often nearly torn to pieces. These savage contests sometimes ended in the strongest party bearing off the bride in triumph. In some cases after long suf fering, she recovered, to be given to a person for whom she had no affection; in oiners to die of tbe injuries she Lad received. But it was not uncommon for tbe weaker party, when they found they could not prevad. to put an end to the contest by plunging a spear Into the woman's bosom, to hinder her from becoming the property ot another.
