Keep Fowls. Jt is a matter of no little surprise to those who watch the pa»t and present events of poultry history to find that there is still a class of people struggling, plodding and contriving by "up hill work" to mako a living for themselves and families, who, if tliey exercised a little judgment, would find that raising prime poultry for market would materially help them to get along better in Ufa. There is something about fowl raising that makes the poor man independent of depending upon a day's work. In Belgium and France the rural cottager feels himself the equal of the bloated aristocrat. It should be the same in every land, particularly in a country like ours, where class distinctions have w

no root in the soul. Every housekeeper could, if he would, erect a cheap affair for a few dosen hen*. There is generally in every family a "supernumerary young one" who could find time to feed and tend to these fowls. Very smalt purchases aro needed when the scraps of the table and gardon are economically used. The first hatched cockerels in the brood should be fatted for market or the table. — N. J.

Kiggiug, wire— double on the rat line#, and whipped wire on the lower stays and heavier oordage. Belaying pins arc of steel end well driven home. — Length of teftrai), over all, 6 feet 2 in.

The running gear from tho hand ruil to the cordage made of white-wood and holly; works free and cieur, strong enough for the requirements of a musical tornado, tthd gentle enough for tho requiem of a departing clan.

Anyhow, 1 liked the starboard side better than the port, hut the ship-keeper told me the owners had other craft of like tonnage awaiting sale or charter, which were on just even keel."

p i The next total Solar Eclipse . A recent paper by I>. P. Todd gives 1 some valuable hints for the use of the electric telegraph in total solar eclipses. ' Taking as an example the next total ' eclipse of the sun, on May 16th, 1832, it ' is remarked that the path of totality lies 1 almost wholly on the land. 1 Beginning in Western Africa, with a northeasterly direction, it crosses Upper Egypt and the Red Sea, passing a few miles south of Bagdad and Teheran, and > thence traversing Central Asia it leaves that continent near Shanghai. The several widely separated regions, connected by telegraphic cables and land lines, are upon the track of the central eclipse. Mr. Todd remarks that from El-Akhym, on the Nile, a line runs thence to Alexandria, from which place Teheran is directly accessible by telegraph. From Tehcren u land line runs southeast through Beloochistan and Ilindostan to Madras, which is connected by cable lines with Singapore, Hongkong, and Shanghai. He points out that an additional aVlvantage attaches to this eclipse from the circumstance that there is a duplicate line of telegraphic connection between Egypt and Shanghai by way of Constantinople, Vienna and

Moscow, and thence by the Russian line through Siberin, to Wladiwostok, and thence to Shanghai. Supposing then that an intra-Mercu-riol planet were discovered during totality in Egypt, a duplicate message might bo sent, to insure beyond doubt that the discovery should lie known to observers at Shanghai. If a planet were discovered at El-Akhmym, forty-five minutes of absolute time elapsing before the shadow reaches Teheran, the position might be telegraphed to the latter station so as to give thft observer abundant time to verify the discovery, while observations at both, places might be telegruphed to Shanghai, which the shadow will not reach until more than two hours after leaving Teheran. Mr. Todd thinks the telegraph companies, with the courte*y they have shown in scientific undertakings, would render assistance in carrying out such a scheme. — Woodstowv Register. Shavings • Two of the nimblest lamplighters in Indianapolis turn out to bo girls in boys' clothes. Their father had compelled them to disguise their sex in order to obtain the job. St. Louis had in 1879 fifty-throe flourishing kindergartens, with about 4,000 pupils, 130 paid teachers, and 65 volunteer assistants. The entire cost for the year was a little over $20,000, $5.70 for each pupil. Fred [to Tom, who has looked throngh Fred's M?h]t— "You didn't know 1 was • an author, eh 7" Tom (to Fred J: — "No, I did't, and if you take my advice, yon won't let anybody else know if you can help it." One of the rights of which women are deprived is the right to walk the street* 1 in a last year's dress without being insolently stared at by every other woman she meets. A Cincinnati man would rather hear s story about a hog than about a sweet girt of lfl. with a wealth of golden hair, blue eyes, and feet that could get into j Xo.l shoes.
