An up-the-State family had two dogs, a bulldog aud a black-and-tan. between which there existed every evidence of deep friendship. The family went into j the country some sixteen miles from i home. They took the black-and-tan ■ with them, but left his companion at j home. They had not been established ' lu their summer quarters more than a ; few days before the small dog bad ; managed to pick a quarrel with a neighbor's bulldog, in which the black and-tau got much the worst of the ar gument—so much so that when he dis- j appeared after the battle his owners j were much worried. They searched high and low, but no trace of that small dog could be found. The next morning there were seen ! coming up the road, side by side, the j black-and-tan aud bis faithful com- I panlon, the bulldog from home. The two marched straight past the hotel where the family were staying and halted in front of the home of the black-and-tan's enemy.

Among the first "Instruments" to bs nsed toward the education of the little son of the Duke and Duchess of Y'ork Is a crawling-rug, designed by Miss Emma Windsor, who is famous for her Intelligent Interpretation of the Froe bel idea of education. Froebel, she says, constantly urged upon mothers the necessity of the In fants' education beginning at their mothers' knee, and thinking of this has led me to the invention of the ba bies' crawling rug. It is a large floor picture of animals, birds and domestic figures, made of real skin, swansdown, and other materials sewn on to flannel, and is quite In harmony with Froebel's Idea. For as soon as baby is put on the rug the first thing that the mite does is to begin to kick and stretch out Its limbs; then It begius to roll over and look about, and tries to clutch at the pretty auiiaals on the rug. Then baby finds it beyond its reacb, and the first attempt to crawl is after puss, or some othei equally familiar form which It sees on the rug. The kicking, the stretching out ths hand, the observation, the crawling, and so on, are all what Froebel calls education. As baby grows older It learns, with the help of mother and nurse, to imi tnte the different sounds which the ani mals make, to nick out one from the other, and to learn their names. Then baby should be taught to stroke each animal gently, and to speak Its name In tender tones. Then the Infant will early learn that love of animals calls forth the love of mankind. It is a good plan to teach the baby to notice pictures of animals in children's books, and to call its attention to liv ing animals and their actions. As ths child grows older its delight in Its zoo logical carpet increases; and children of seven years of age are known to greatly appreciate them. The place for the rug Is the nursery, the drawing-room, the bath-room, tha seaside, and on shipboard. A BOY'S OWN RAILROAD. Built the Locomotive, Laid the Track, aud Operate* It Hlmeelf. Robert M. Tyler, the son of William M. Tyler, lias built a perfectly equip ped railroad, with rolling stock and 10. lomotive, on the farm of his father at Buck's Hill, a suburb of Waterbury, Conn. He built the locomotive himself. He surveyed the line, decided upon the grades and curves, and, aided by ordi nary labor, made the roadbed, laid the rails, and now runs the engine. It is a real railroad and not a toy—a railroad over which the engine, by the boy, runs dally, hauls stones, lumber and other materials and farm products, and has an existence with a definite and profitable purpose. Hunters found afield with their dogs take Tyler's rood lo get a lift toward thehuntinggrounde, and lots of people have been delighted with an excursion trip over the line. It was manifest that profit as well its fun awaited the success of a miniature railroad running over Buck's Hill. Ty ler, who went to work at It In a very crude, small-boyish way nt first, eoon compelled his elders to havs faith in him as a civil and mechanical engineer and road constructor. Then the neces sary cash capital was forthcoming I fast as It became necessary for Tylei to Invest In material. The boy engine-builder very sensibly refrained from attempting to follow the lines of drive-wheel loeomotlve. Tyler was Indifferent to appearances, but bent on practical results. The boy's sensible aim was to save and make money, and not to ekpend It extrava gantly. The engine and boiler and tho car on which theso are mounted cost not less thau SSOO. The further equip ment of Buck's Hill line consists of two cars, eacli four-wheeled and each hav ing a capacity of 1,500 pounds. In rqnntpg the line the boy surveyor humored the topography of the region with which he had to deal, and did not contract for any steep cuts or for any rock work. The stony, gravelly sur face was easily converted Into a solid bed. The rails used were of steel, and the cross tics were of chestnut. Tho gauge Is twenty-six Inches. The grade In Its steepest part is 370 feet to the mile. The whole cost of constructing the railway was at the rate of SBOO per mile.

"Your father prob'ly won't be back till late." Fred and Polly drew up their chairs, and Grandmother Melton brought a steaming bowl of mush from the stove and dished it into two smaller bowls. "I'm as hungry as a bear," observed Fred, between uiouthfnls. "1 think it's a shame we have to go so far to school. There isn't a single boy or girl in Springville that has to go half so far as we do." "I don't see why father doesn't move down there," complained Polly, pouring more of the rich yellow milk over her mush; "he could get to his work just as well, and it would be ever so much pleasauter thau this lonesome place." "You must remember that your father isn't a rich man," answered Grandmother Melton, gently. "He owns this cottage, and if he moved he would have to rent another home, and perhaps he couldn't sell this one." The Meltons had only been in their new home since the summer before. Both Fred aud Polly had enjoyed it very much iudeed during the pleasant warm weather of August and Septem ber. Then the wide, swift Mississippi had gleamed through the willows, aud there had been unlimited boating and swinuniug and iishing. But with the coming of winter the roads choked full of snow nml ice, and the winds swept up the river sharp and cold, aud it was a dreary, lonesome walk of four miles to school at Springville. As the win ter progressed they had complained more and more, and now for a week, owing to the spring freshets, Polly had been unable to go at all, aud Fred was compelled to make a loug detour over the bluffs to avoid the lagoons in the l'iver bottoms. "They'll all get ahead of me," Polly had sobbed; "and I can't pass my ex aminations." That morning Father Melton had gone up the river to help watch the levees. Reports had been coming from St. Paul, St. Louis, Cairo and other points farther up the great river that the water was rising vapidly. The levees must be watched night and day to prevent breaks. On leaving his home that morning Mr. Melton had told Fred that he would be back before dark, and that there was no danger to fear from tho water. All his neighbors had told him that his cottage was high enough to be safe, even in the greatest floods. "It's after 9 o'clock now," said Polly, as she arose from the table; "I won der where father is?" "I'd go out aud watch for him if it wasn't raining so hard," said Fred, and then he looked around toward the doorway, anxiously. He caught his breath suddenly. Then he half rose from the table and pointed at the floor. Grandmother Melton dropped her fork noisily on her plate and her eyes followed the direc tion indicated by Fred's finger. Polly sat still aud gazed nt tho other two, wondering what it all meant. There on the floor, crawling from the crack under the door, was a dark wriggling object, At first Fred had taken it to be one of the swamp rattlers so common to the Mississippi bottoms, and his first impulse was to spring for his father's rille which stood iu the corner. "It's the flood," said Grandmother Melton when alie could get her breath. By this; tiute the black ribbon of water was spreading, slipping into tlie eraeks and creeping out over the floor toward the table. Polly broke into a cry of terror. Even Grandmother Melton seemed uncertain what to do. Fred suddenly roused himself. lie remembered that he was the man of the house, and that he must watch over and protect it in his father's ab sence. So he sprung from his seat and threw open the door, not without a throb of fear. It was dark outside, and the rain came down in torrents. Curling up over the step they could see the muddy water, and they could hear the sound of it slapping agaihkt the house. It stretched away into the; darkness in all directions as far as Fred could see. He knew that already it must he a foot or more high around the house. "The levee's broken," said Polly, in a scared, awed voice. "Do you think we'll be washed awnV?" At that moment something bumped against the side of the-lierase with' so much force that the dishes rattled. Fred ran to the side of the window, peered out, and found that rt big log had washed' down against the build-' in'g.

Shall 1111 each heart, while the song-birds loud trying circumstauc.es, was wringing lier bauds iu terror. "Run up stairs," shouted Fred, "and Polly and I'll bring all the stuff we can with us." Grandmother Melton waited no longer. She crept up the narrow stair way to the little attic. Fred ran to the cupboard ami began tilling his arms with dishes of food, while Polly in her excitement seized the first thing that came to hand—grandmother's rocking chair—and struggled up the stairs with it. "We'll need clothing more'n any thing else," called Grandmother Mel- 1 ton. "Fred ran back. The floor of the 1 cottage was now entirely covered with , water. He splashed through it and seized all the clothing, coats and jack ets lie could carry. Polly bravely wiped away her and when Fred brought the loads to the .stairway she ran with them to the bedroom where Grandmother Melton was sitting. By this time the building had be- I gun to shake and quiver as the water beat against it. "She's going soon," shouted Fred. "I'm afraid the water will reach us up here," suggested Grandmother Melton. Fred looked up. The ceiling was | low, and just above him there had been ' a 1 old trap-door, now uailed up. In- 1 stautly Fred seized the ax and burst j ii open. Above they could see the j dark sky and the rain coming down iu j steady torrents. Fred piled a trunk ! on top of the [able uud climbed out on i the roof. He couldn't see far, but he could hear the roaring of the water from ' every direction. His heart sunk; he felt sure that they would all be drowned. Suddenly something thumped heavily against the side of the building, and the next instant the front end of the room went up and grandmother and Polly slipped down toward the rear end. Fred narrowly escaped being hurled off the roof. "We're going! We're going!" screamed Polly. "We're just off the foundation," an swered Fred, as bravely as he could. Then he swung back down into the bedroom and helped Grandmother Meltou and Polly up through the trap door to the roof. He covered them up as well as he could and told them to cling to the ridgepole whatever might happen. Then lie ran down for a coil of clothesline. This he tied firmly to the window at one end of the bedroom, carried the other end up through the trap-door, along the roof and dropped it over the eaves. Down he went again and fastened it to the other window frame. It would do to hold to. Hardly had lie finished his work when the building gave another great lurch. "Hold ou!" shouted Fred. The words were hardly out of his mouth when he found himself thrown violently from his feet. He caught a glimpse of the water pouring up the stairway, and thou the lamp was cap sized and went out. Kext he found himself pounding about in the water. "Fred! Fred!" came the agonized vqice of Polly. "Here I am!" spluttered Fred. In falling he had caught the edge of the trap-door and Polly helped him to the roof. "We liad all wo could do to hold 011," gasped Grandmother Melton. "We're moving," shouted Polly. They rocked and scraped and humped along, with the water swirling and crashing around them. "It's our first voyage," said Fred, with an effort to Inngh; "p'raps we'll wind up in the Gulf of Mexico." But Polly didn't laugh, neither did Grandmother Melton. A few minutes later they heard some one shouting far out on tlie stream ami they saw the glimmer of a lantern. They shouted in return, but there was no answer, and presently the lantern was swallowed up in the darkness and the three castaways were even more lonesome and terrified than before, They were compelled to cling firmly to the rope and the ridgepole all the time, for the house was continually humping against obstructions in the stream and careening and jolting like a boat in a rough sea. Besides this, they were wet to the skin an(l shiver ing witli cold and fright. - Occasionally huge forms would loom up near theni, and they would see the.outline of .trees or buildings floating down, the river. They were momentarily afraid lest their boat should bump into something and be broken up. If this happened they knew they would have small hope of escape. Quite suddenly they felt the build 'iug grind oil something, and then, with a jolt, it came to a standstill. They could hear the timbers strain and creak alpl the current of the stream splashing about it, but it did not move. . "Well, we'fe anchored," said Fred. "I suppose we're out somewhere ou a sandbar in the Mississippi. " ••Do you think we have leached Memphis?" asked Tolly, anxiously. To Polly it seemed as if they had been dn'ting for hours. For a long time they remained al most still. Occasionally they joined their voices in a great shout, but there was no answer. Fred said the water roared so loud that no one could hear it, anyway, but it eased their spirits to be doing something. At last they started again with a jerk and a shiver, as if some of the timbers of the building had given away. They bumped on for what seemed an endless time, and then, after scraping along for some minutes, they again stopped. By this time the rain had ceased and the moon shone out faintly through the clouds. "There's lights," cried Polly, joy fully. Sure enough, on the hill, not such a great distance away, they could see many lights gleaming out. over the water. Nearer, there were other lights moving about, as if in boats. "It's Memphis," said Polly, aud then they all shouted at the top of their voices. But no one heard tliem. The water roared too loudly. Bo they sat for hours and hours—it seemed to them— until the gray light of morning began to break in the east. They strained their eyes as it grew brighter and looked off across the gray Hood of water with its scattering heaps of wreckage to the town on the hill. "I thought Memphis was a bigger city than that," said Polly. "it isn't Memphis," said Fred, with a little joyful ring in his voice that made Polly and her grandmother look around quickly; "it's Springville." "Springville!" And Springville it was. They could see the little weatherbeaten oliurch on the bill, aud the red brick schoolhonse, aud Judge Carson's home, and a great many other familiar places, although some of the buildings that had stood near the river had disappeared. "But haven't we come only four i miles?" said Grandmother Melton, I looking greatly surprised. Half an hour later two boats came i alongside and the castaways were car ried ashore. On the bank Polly found herself in the arms of her father cry ing and laughing all at once. Father Melton looked old and worn and wor ried. He had given up his family for lost, and he was bravely helping the other people in the work of rescue. After the Hood was subsided the Meltons went down to look over their home. Father Melton hardly knew what to do, but Polly spoke up quite promptly. "1 tell you, father, let's leave it right here and live in it; Fred and I won't have so far to go to school." And what do you think? That is just what Father Melton did. He straightened the house around, built a new foundation under it, and the Mel tons are living there to-day, quite hap py and contented. Bo you see the Hood helped two persons at least- Polly and Fred.—Chicago Record, How Flower. Fnrchmlß Insects. - Professor F. Plateau, of tlie Univer sity of Ghent, has for many years car ried on a series of observations on the mode on which inseots are attraoted to flowers, the results of which are pub lished in the bulletin of the Royal Academy of Sciences of Belgium. His conclusions are not in accord with those of Darwin, that the bright color of the corolla acts as a beacon to at tract insects. He believes that they are attracted chiefly by some other sense thau that of sight, probably that of smell. In the ease of the dahlia (single) and other species of Compo sitrn, the removal of the conspicuous ray florets have but little effect ou the visits of insects; nor had the removal of the conspicuous part of the corolla in othor flowers, as long as the nec tary remained. On the other hand, says Nature, the artificial placing of honey on otherwise scentless flowers resulted in their being immediately visited by numbers of insects. Where the same species varies in the color of the flower, as between blue and white, OP red aud white, insects visit quite indifferently flowers of different colors belonging to the same species. The Compngs Plant. What is known us the Compass plant, Pilot weed, and Polas plant in differ ent localities, is quite curious, and in former days, when there were no rail roads, was of grent value in guiding travelers. The leaves invariably point north and south. Mungo Park has immortalized it as he says he was guided by it, when otherwise his way would have been lost and he would have perished on the dry plains. The peculiar faculty of thus pointing to the north and south attempted to be ex plained by the fact that both surfaces of the leaves display equal suscepti bility to light whereas the upper sur face of the leaves of plants, in general, is more sensitive to light than the lower; hence the vertical position of the Compass plant, as unerring as the mariner's compass. Professor Asa says of it "on the wide open prairies the leaves are said to present their faces uniformly with the north or south American Gardening. Viotorla'fl Double, .ay-v.
