...THE CAMEO RINGS.,
By Priscilla Campbell.
' Murnel sat in the twilight, with a
tmall box In her hand, unmindful of
the shadows which were beginning
to steal into her room. It one could
have peeped inside the box one would
have seen a cameo ring ot a peculiar
style. She was thinking of the one
.who had given It to her eleven years
ago, and her thoughts were tinged
iwith sadness, for she had never been
able to forget the donor in all these
years.
Just then a light tap at her door
aroused her from her reverie, and she
sprang to her feet. The box tell from
her hand and rolled under the table.
"Oh, it's you, Miss Fuller!" she
exclaimed, opening the door.
"Yes, it's I," laughed a young voice,
and a girl of about twenty came into
the room. "And why are you sitting
In the dark?"
"I didn't realize it was so late," ex
plained Muriel, as she turned on the
light. She stooped to pick up the
box, but it had opened and the ring
had fallen out, so she was obliged to
Jook for it. The girl gave her a
Btrange glance as she caught sight of
the cameo.
"That's a peculiar ring," she said,
"and a beautiful one."
Muriel's face crimsoned. "Yes, it
has a strange setting," she replied.
"I've had it a long timo. A very dear
triend gave it to me."
"Would you mind telling me about
It?" said the girl, softly; and she
slipped her arm about the other's
neck.
Lois Fuller was a niece ot Muriel's
landlady, and during the last year
had .frequently visited her aunt.
Muriel had seen quite a lot ot the
girl, for nearly every evening during
her stay she had come up to Muriel's
room. ThuB a pleasant friendship
had formed between them, and they
flrere very fond of each other.
' Lois was expectant, and at last the
other broke the silence. "I've never
told anyone before," she said, "but
perhaps it may do me good to confide
In you. I was very young when I first
met Philip Browning." Here Lois
gave a little start, but Muriel did not
notice it. "He was an artist and
came to our village the summer I was
seventeen. He was a constant visitor
at our home during his stay in town,
and as he was far superior to any
young man I had ever seen, it was
not long before I grew to admire
him. Before he returned to the ctty
In the autumn he told me that he
loved me. There was not a happier
girl in the world than I when he put
this ring on my finger. He said that
it was an heirloom, and showed me
another ring which was exactly like
It, only a little smaller. This he wore
on his watch chain. His parents had
died when he was a child, and the
rings had been left for him. This one
was his mother's betrothal ring, and
his father used to wear the other
ring, as he himself was doing, on his
watch chain.
"The days after this were very
bright until Philip was obliged to re
turn home. At first I was lonely, but
I tried to console myself with the
thought that we would not be sep
arated very long, for the following
June we were to be married. I grew
quite happy again as I made my plans
lor our new home; but in a few weeks
my happiness turned into sorrow.
My father was suddenly taken ill with
pneumonia, and in less than a fort
night I was left alone. This was a
severe blow to me, for I loved my
father very dearly. Now I only had
Philip left. Up to" this time he had
written me long, loving letters; and
It was a cruel shock to me the month
following my lather's death to pick
up a paper, and read of his marriage.
I do not know how I ever lived
through my sorrow; but I did not
stay in my old home long. Just be
fore I went away I received a letter
from Philip, but I returned it to him,
unopened, scorning the idea that he
should write to me when he was mar
ried. I went to my aunt in the West
and stayed with her three years.
Then I came here-nd have been here
ever since. In my sorrow I forgot
to return the cameo ring, and when
I remembered it was too late, for I
heard that Philip had gone abroad.
I cannot help looking at It sometimes
I have never forgotten him, althougl
I do not allow myself to think of him
only as a triend of my girlhood.
Somehow I do not blame him. 1
suppose I was too young to keep hie
love."
When Muriel had finished LoIb was
looking very thoughtful. "Are you
sure that there wasn't some mis
take?" she said.
"Oh, no," answered Muriel, "there
wasn't any mistake. I only hope be
is happy without doubt he is, and
he probably never gives a thought to
the girl he used to know so long ago."
Lois murmured a few words ot
sympathy, and then after a little
while she left Muriel alone.
"What a very lovable girl Lois Is,
she thought, "and how much sunshine
she brings into my life. I don't know
what I should do without her."
One evening about two weeks after
ward, a feeling which Muriel could
not define compelled her to again
look at the cameo ring. After a little
while she slipped it on her finger. At
this Juncture Lois came up to her
room, her eyes sparkling, and her
cheeks flushed with excitement:
"Auntie has gone out," she said,
and I have a caller downstairs, a
cousin of mine. I want you to meet
him. You'll come down, won't you?"
Muriel wanted to refuse, but Lois
looked at her so pleadingly that she
finally said that she would go down
for a little while.
As they entered the living room,
made bright and cosey by a glowing
open fire, Muriel started as a tall,
familiar figure stepped toward them.
Philip Browning! Could it be pos
sible? Yes, it was he and no other
who took her trembling hands in his;
and as he looked down and saw the
cameo ring , on her finger, there was
the tender light of old in his eyes.
Muriel noted that he wore the other
ring on his chain.
It took her only a few minutes to
find out that there had been a mis
take after all. It was Philip's brother
who had married,' and it was through
an error of the paper that Philip's
name was used.
He told her how pained he was
when he received the letter, un
opened, and how he had written after
that several times, only to have every
letter returned to him In the same
way. At last he had been forced to
believe that she cared for him no
longer. It was then .that he had gone
abroad, and he had returned home
only two months ago.
'I owe my good fortune In finding
you to Lois," he said, and he looked
around gratefully, but his cousin had
slipped from the room.
Among the Brownings' possessions
there is nothing they prize more than
the cameo rings. Boston Post.
The Pedigree of the Shirt.
By FRAXK CRAXE.
Why does this being we call a
"gentleman" wear around his neck a
band of spotless whiteness and un
bearable stiffness, at his wrists sim
ilar instruments of torture, and be
fore his chest a rigidly starched linen
plate? No one outside of a madhouse
would call these articles of apparel
agreeable. There is for the custom
no reason at all drawn from comfort,
hygiene or usefulness. There Is, how
ever, the ghost of a dead reason.
Once upon a time a "gentleman" was
presumed to do no work, and he
dressed to show this, by putting on
these visible signs that he never
soiled his hands, sweated his neck or
bent his noble back. It matters not
that we no longer believe in this defi
nition of a gentleman; we did believe
it once; its ghost rules on. No man
is bold enough to appear in society
without this impossible harness.
Only a professional humorist, like
Mark Twain, or some one who wishes
to pose as a mild lunatic, dares rebel.

Southern Hospitality.
Among the Southern writers who
are firm believers in the hosnltalltv
of the South is Thomas Nelson Page.
According to Mr. Page, however, this
nospitaiity is not always appreciated.
By way of illustration he tells the fol
lowing story about the . good old
times before the war:
"A guest in a Southern home re
quested the use of a horse to carry
him to the next town, where he in
tended to stay for a few days. The
host, with that true Southern hospi
tality, let him have the horse, and
even sent along a negro boy to bring
the animal back. The days went by,
and neither boy nor horse showed up.
The host at last sent a messenger
to see what had become of them. The
boy was found on a plantation near
the neighboring town. He was asked
why he had not come back with the
horse.
'The reply was: ' 'Cause dat
gent'man don sold the horse.'-
"Well, how did that keen you
from coming back?'
"He don sold me. too!' renlled
the boy."

"Do you mean to say," began the
tourist to the villager with whom the
London Dally News says he had
struck up conversation, "that the old
man in front of that house is really
one hundred years old?"
"One hundred and four," corrected
the native.
'No wonder you're proud of him!"
congratulated the tourist.
"I don't know about bein' proud
o him." replied the villager, calmly.
Far's I know, he ain't done any
thing in this place except grow old.

FARM AND
FARM NOTES.
A cow will drink often if water is
accessible at all times.
Do you know, reader, that one
cause of tuberculosis is breathing Im
pure air of close filthy, ill-ventilated
stables.
Oiling the separator occasionally
with kerosene will cut the gum and
facilitate the easy running of the ma
chine. ;
To the farmer who has been down
to the mud hole to break the Ice so
the cows can drink, I will say most
earnestly, pure water Is an Impor
tant factor In keeping the cows in
good condition and yielding whole
some milk.
It Is sometimes inconvenient to bed
the cows well when other duties are
pressing but It Is cruel to let a cow
He on a floor that is bare or nearly
so.
Shredded corn fodder makes an ex
cellent roughage, we find to feed the
cows at any time and especially be-
fore calving if one doesn't happen!
to have silage.
The men that have succeeded In
making dairying pay care for their
cows so as to make them produce -
the greatest amount of human food
at the least cost and yet keep the
cows In the best possible condition.
1 am sure we farmers who keep a few
cows might learn much from these
men who make a business of dairy
ing. The trouble Is we are not will
lngmany of us, to get out of the
rut, to be learners.
The sunny side of a building Is the
best place for the cow stalls. No pro
visions for admitting sunlight is a
mistake. Ever notice the pleasure
with which the cow greets sunshine?
Grooming does much to quiet the
cow and gain her confidence but It
won't do to curry her with the pitch
fork. Whenever the attendant feels
like raising caln he is poor company
for the dairy cow and he should leave
the cow stable until he Is In a better
humor.
I used to know a farmer who had
very poor fences. His cows would
find a place where they could step
over In a neighbor's corn field. The
shiftless fellow would go after them
and lay another rail on the fence.
The performance was repeated each
time the old fence was made a little
higher and finally he had them edu
cated so they could get over a high
fence very ensily; and as long as
that man lived In the neighborhood
there was trouhle for himself and his I
neighbors about his cows trouble I
that might have been avoided in the stock was selling at inflated prices

SAVING HEN MANURE.
Prof Morse, of the New Hampshire,
experiment station, after referring to
the loss of fertilizer value, and an
swering the question how best to
retain it, says the best materials for
this purpose are gypsumt or land plas
ter, acid phosphate and kalnlt, a cheap
potash salt. Each of these chemicals
has the power to form new 'com
pounds with the ammonia as fast as
it is Bet free from the original com
bination. Wood ashes and slaked
lime should never be used because
they cannot combine with ammonia,
while they do force It out of its com
pounds and take its place. Plaster
Is apt to produce a dry, lunrpy mix
ture when used In large enough quan
tities to arrest the ammonia, while
kalnlt and acid phosphate produce
the opposite effect of a moist sticky
mass.
Bulletin 98 of the Maine experi
ment Btation says that, using their
results as a basis of calculation, the
weekly droppings of a flock of twenty
five hens, when scraped from the
roosting platform, should be mixed
with about eight pounds of kalnlt or
acid phosphate and a half peck of
sawdust. If one desires a balanced
fertilizer for corn and other hoed
crops a mixture of nqual parts of
kalnlt and acid phosphate could be
used Instead of either alone. The
same authority tells us that "good
dry meadow muck or peat would be
equally as good as sawdust, If not
better, to use as an absorbent."
Fresh poultry manure, at the pres-
ent
it values of fertilizers would bo -
worth sixty cents per hundred pounds.
Figures from different experiment stn
tlons would give the product of twenty-five
hens for the winter season of
six months at 375 pounds for the
roost droppings only.
Poultry manure is especially adapt
ed as a topdresslng for grass because
of Its high content of nitrogen in the
form of ammonia compounds,
which are nearly as quick In their ef
fect as nitrate of soda. A ton of
the manure preserved with sawdust
and chemicals would be sufficient for
an acre when compared with a chem
ical formula for top dressing.
' On the same basis of comparison,
one hundred fowls roaming at largo
on an acre should In a summer sea
son of six months have added to its
fertility the equivalent of at least
two hundred pounds of sulphate of
ammonia and sixty pounds of kalnlt.
PICKING OUT THE LAYERS.
Dairymen, to make the greatest
profit, build up their herds through
careful breeding, careful buying and
GARDEN
unmerciful culling. They do not ask
the good ones to average up a record
for the poor ones.
This some "common-sense" plan
can be profitably applied to the poul
try business.
Hens that lay 200 eggs In a year
should not be averaged at 150 eggs
with hens that lay 100 eggs.
A dairyman uses care In breeding,
If he buys, there are certain marks
that govern the price, the shade from
the end of the nose to the end of the
tall is taken Into account, the small
feminine neck and head have a value
and clear down a line of points ho
makes his estimate, the very same
rules and the very same principles
apply to the highest point in poultry
raising,
Any experienced, close-observing
poultry raiser knows, at a glance, the
laying hen. The small feminine neck
and head count again, the bright, alert
eye tells a tale, the drooping tall
tells another tale and when she picks
ner feet up an(1 ,plumpg them down
we have another pointer,
A very few club-beaded, thick-necked
steer-horned cows are any good. Even
wlth tne oow tne teilg a tale,

a slim tall Is one of the characteris

HOW TO MAKE A HOTBED.

Select a well-drained location and
shake out manure on It in a broad flat
and thoroughly compact heap. After
the manure Is properly packed and
leveled, the frames to support the

should be 4 to 6 Inches lower than
the back.
Three to five Inches of good soil
Is spread evenly over the area in

TELLING THE BIRD'S HEALTH.
iDr. Salmon, of the New York Bu
reau of Animal Industry lays down
this rule for telling the health of
the bird by its droppings: "The con
dition of the droppings furnish a
good Indication of the hen's health.
They should 'be of sufficient consis
tency to hold their shape, but b'jouM
not be too solid. In color they should
be dark, tapering oft nto grayish
white. If the drooplngs-are soft or
pasty and of a yellowish or brown
ish color, It Indicates too much car
bohydrates or a lack of meat. If on
the other hand, the drooplngs are
watery and dark with red splashes
of mucus In them, It Indicates too
much meat. A greeniBh watery
diarrhea usually Indicates unsanitary
conditions, either In the surroundings,
the feed or the water."

Official "Lazy List."
The town of Great Barrington late
ly came Into possession, by purchase
from the estate of the late Henry
C. Warner, of a bound volume of town
reports for the years 1866 to 1888 in
clusive. The annual school reports
for the years 1872-73 to 1877-78 In
clusive contain much information that
is omitted from the school commit
tees' reports of more recent years.
One of the chief things In this line
was called. "The Lazy List."
The reports usually embodied roll!
of honor, lists of star pupils and the
lazy list. The 'latter embraces th
names of scholars who were ofte-n
tardy, but not necessarily the names
of those who lacked diligence aftor
reaching the schoolroom. The re
port for 1872-73 contains twelve
names. The lazy list went out of
existence In 1S78.
LETTUCE AND RADISHES.
A few beds of lettuce, radishes,
onions and beets don't require very
much care, and it the women look
after this, the men can have more
time to attend to the truck patches,
where planting and cultivation with
a horse is practicable. We never
believed much in waiting for the men
to do it all, noticing that where this
was the rule a bountiful supply of
early vegetables, or of any vegetables,
was usually the exception. The

A GARDEN WINDBREAK.
It is' a good plan to have an ever
green windbreak on the north and
partially down the west side ot the
garden. An objection raised is that
nothing will grow near the trees.
This 1b more due to the roots spread
ing out into the garden ground than
to the tree shade. To overcome this
open up a deep furrow each spring
eight or ten feet away from the trees
and force them to sustain themselves
from the other side. This will not
injure the trees and will allow com
paratively close planting. Indiana
Farmer.
LIME AND SULPHUR.
An unexpected result ot the lime
and sulphur wash on trees has been
Its effectiveness in preventing attacks
ot rabbits and similar pests. It has
been found that a single application
ot this wash will protect the trees all
winter, keeping oft both rabbits and
field mice. Such a plan is much less
costly than the use of wire screens,
which at present is the approved rem
edy. The screens are more durable
than the wash, but the expense is a
serious item in a large orchard.

REPOTTING PLANTS.
When repotting a plant that is
root-bound, do not give it too large
a pot. A rule that may be given as
invariable Is to change to a pot one
size larger than the old one. Put the
bits of broken crockery in the bottom,
All one-tblrd full of soil, turn the
plant from its old home, and, disturb
ing the roots as little as possible,
place it in the larger pot and fill In
around it, pressing the earth down
firmly. Give water and set the plant
out of the sun for a day or .two before
restoring it to its place in the win
dow. Treated in this way it will go
right on growing. Farmers' Home
Journal.
A COLD FRAME.
This illustration shows a cold
frame, made by a woman whose only
tools were a saw and a hammer, and
who happened to have a 'left-over"
window sash. The frame measured
eighteen inches at the back, and
sloped down (o ten inches in front.
An excavation was dug, and the frame
placed therein; the front two or three
inches above the soil and the back
about ten inches. At each corner,
inside, was driven a stout stake,
which materially served to keep the
frame from sagging in any way. A
well drained spot was chosen on the
south side of a high fence and the
earth banked up around the frame,
making a ditch to carry off the sur
face water. Later, when cold nights
came, an old door was put on the
glass sash, aTid a piece of carpet
thrown over all. In this frame
thrived sixteen California violets,
that almost bloomed themselves to
death, Violets are easy to winter in
such a frame, if a little care is given
to watering when necessary, airing in

sunny weather and covering up sung-
ly when it is cold. Beside violets,
any half hardy flower will do nicely,
and many of them bloom. The ever
popular geranium, stock, petunia,
primrose, pansy, forget-me-not, mig
nonette, sweet scented snap dragon,
daisy, etc. Do not forget a pot of
parsley and one of chives. Avoid all
extremes; the warm sunshine on the
glass will scorch the leaves, and fre
quently do more damage than the
cold night which caught the sash
raised. See that the cold frame is
put near the house, where It will be
easy to get at, and not "out of sight
and out of mind."
A pit may be dug several feet
deep, boarded or bricked up, covered
with sashes, and will be a permanent
winter garden. In the pit half hardy
shrubs, which grow too tall for the
cold frame, such as azaleas, orange
and lemon trees, oleanders, hibiscus,
roses, fushlas, heliotrope and kindred
plants may be wintered. The same
precaution in regard to sun, air, wat
er, etc., as the frame requires, Is
necessary for the pit. The plants
are usually bedded out in the frames,
but grow in pots in the pit. Modern

occupies unassailable ground. It was
no business of bis to allow or disal

to say what the corporation might

when the committee goes further and
undertakes to decide that the laws
of congress have been violated by
the big corporation, the question ar
ises whether it Is not also assuming
a position as untenable as that of the

Why Women Have Last Word.
Man still carries the original num
ber of ribs, but he Is short of a
lung lobe. Where did he lose It?
Eve got It. Man's right lung today
consists of three lobes; man's left
lung today consists of two lobes. Let
us consider the missing lobe on the
left. The lungs, mind you, are the
life. Eve was made out of Adam's
third lung lobe on the left, the lobe ,
nearest the heart. She was con
structed out of wind, mostly. That
Is she took part of Adam's breath
away. Adam's posterity of the male
persuasion in these later days can
count on only five lobes to both
lungs; while Eve's daughters can
count on seven; which accounts for
