A “gentleman’s gentleman” had been trying his hand at the gun upon a Forfarshire moor, unsuccessfully, it would appear, for his efiorts were thus reported on by the gamekeeperâ€"~“Yon valet maun be a grand barber, gin he’s as gude at the shaving as at the shoot- ing. Seeven days has he covered the grund, and he’s drawn nae blude yet.” THE HEAD SURGEON A Highland clergyman near Inver- ness was one Sunday preaching from the New Testament, Where the Apostle Peter saidâ€"~“Lo, we have left all and followed the.” “Ay, ay,” remarked the divine, “this is like you Peter, aye pouncin’ an’ poastin’. What had you to be leavin’?” continued the parson, “Naethin’ put an’ auld fisher’s poat an’ a puckle nets.” A single old lady, who never married herself, imagined matrimony was the surest way to attain happiness. She had a characteristic expression, which she invariably used on hearing of a wedding. A blooming young friend was about to espouse an old man, both lame and blind. When she was told the news she exclaimed, as was her wont, “Oh, the luck 0’ some talk ! ” An old Cameronirâ€"m once said he had known his minister leave the pulpit during this psalm-singing and retire to his manse for the purpose of recruiting his energies before he resumed his dis- course. “And what did the congrega- tion do for refreshments? ” was the natural query. “Hoots! they jist bided in their seats. The Wird was sufficient refreshment for them!” The smell of paraffin may be removed from the hands by rubbing them with dry sawdust, then washing with soap and water. For a. scaly and itchy scalp, well brush on~e a, day with a soltion of salt and tartar and waterâ€"a teaspoonful of the tartar to a pint of water. The country is preferable to town; yeta country house too closely sur- rounded by trecs, or in the neighbor- hood of stagnant water or undrained marsh, may have a. sickly and melan- choly nursery history. For stewed rhubarb take a. jar that will hold three pints of water, fill it with rhubard and sufficient sugar; flavor with the juice of a. lemon. Put on a. lid or buttered paper, and place the jar in a pot of boiling water, and it will be ready in an hour. This is a valuable addition to milk puddings of all kinds. It is important to keep Children’s teeth cared for from the very first. WIT AND WISDOM. DOMESTIC HINTS. The mouths of young infants should be washed out and wiped round with an ear sponge after feeding. From about eighteen months a soft badger hair tootbrush should be used night and morning, and after two years precipi- tated chalk may be used as a tooth- powder. Mr. Wm. Sanders, in a report to the Department of Agriculture at Wash- ington, says “One of the principal ob- chtions urged against the employment of live fences or hedges is the cost of deeming them in efficient repair, for it admits of no qualification that unless they receiVe proper attention they will prove to be of but little value as a fence against live stock. When the cows get old begin .while they are fresh in milk and give them more grain than they can convert into milk. If properly fed the surplus must go to make flesh or fan. and while the milk pays for the ordinarv feed the gain in weight should pay for the extra grain, and beef fattened in that way is as good .s that of a younger animal. or better than the younger animal fat- itened slowly. “When (118 the first train start for Stirlin’!" exclaimed an old woman with a. red face, and excited manners, and several parcels, to the ticket clerk at‘ Queen Street Station, Glasgow, the other day. “There is not a train tor Stirling now for two hours and forty minutes,” was the reply. “Hech me,” was the relieved answer of the old woman, “I’m awfu’ gled I’m no late,” and she sat down contentedly on a bench. In preparing Swiss pudding peel,slice l and stew 1 1b. of apples with a table! spoonful of sugar and a little water, Mix in a bowl a breakfastcupful of grated bread, 2 oz. of chopped suet, é lb. of sugar, and a little nutmeg. Grease a pie dish and put in the bottom the half of the mixture in the bowl 5 then pour in the stewed apples, put on the too the remainder of the mixture, mak- ing it smooth. Put the pudding in the oven and bake for about half an hour. In hanging paper, haying prepared the walls take a roll and go round the room to ascertain the number of lengths required. Then measure from cornice to baseboard. Cut the first strip. 1 Match the next strip to top of previous one,and so on till you have cut sufficient ’ stripsoto go round the room. You are now ready to hang the paper. Start from the light, and be very careful to see that the fist piece is hanging plumb, for if the first piece is hung plump the: 1 rest will come right. Brush the paperl 'from the centre outwards. If there be tany wrinkles, pull the paper off tol where they are, then brush outwardl from the centre again. Run the shears along the paper at the top of the baseboard, and cut off the sur- plus paper nice and even. When you come to a corner, never overlap the . paper around it unless the space is very narrow. Fold up the strips at both ends, measure the distance with your rule, and mark just a little beyond the corner. If cut in this manner you will always have corners that will be square and stay in position.

Detroit last Satur. day evening,” said S. V. Vail, of Elmira, N.Y., “I met Mason Long of Fort Wayne, Ind., in the depot, and the sight of his well-remembered face recalled many inter- esting recollections to my mind. Long has been for a number of years one of tlve best known evangelists in the country, is a. thor- ough Christian and active leader in all good movements, but there was a time when he was as hard a citizen as you could meet in a month‘s journey. He was a gambler and three-card monte man, and travelled for quite a time with the notoric ous ‘Canada Bill,’ who was undoubtedly the cleverest monte man that ever operated in the United States. Sixteen or eighteen ‘years ago, when ‘Canada. Bill’ was at his best, I saw considerable of him, and de- spite the fellow’s roguery and crookednesa there was something about him that I couldn’t help but admire. He was a large- formed man, with a. cleanly shaven face, a square jaw, deep-set eyes and the expres- sion of a sphinx. His favorite disguise was the make-up of a cattle drover, andas there were more members of that class on the road in the days referred to than now, Can- ada' Bill had no difficulty in passing himself off as one oi them. He always carried two or three confederates or ‘cappers’ with him, I and the money that he Won with his three I little cards during half a dozen years, chief- ly on the Lake Shore Railroad, would buy a bank and pay officers salaries for twenty years. Whenever arrested Bill would plead » guilty when arraigned, and no matter how _ large a fine might be imposed on him he would flash up a bundle of greenbacks, . count out the amount of the fine, thank the E court for doing its duty and bow himself L into the street. As an example of his E l audacity I may cite the instance of his ofl'er- ’ ing the Union Pacific Railroad Company' a $10,000 a year for the exclusive right of 1 operating his game on their road, and fur- ? ’ thermore, he said he would agree not to ,- fleece any one but ministers of the Gospel. 8 Needless to say, his generous offer was not accepted by the railroad company. 7 I,_ "CON F IDENGE ” KING. to go out Without a guardian.’ Then giv- ing her $20 more, he continued : ‘Here‘s a present for the babies. Now run back to them and stop your crying.’ So you see, swindler and scoundrel that; he was, the 0 vv Luunv- Fr. ., king of monte men had some redeeming qualities, and maybe they will be remem- bered when his final account is made up. ‘Canada. Bill’s’ full name was \Villiam Jones, he came originally from down Mon- treal way, and has been dead ten years or more.”â€"-Detroit Free Press. Ya‘lue of Early Lambs. , Every season there are periods when early lambs bring from 10 to 15 cents per pound, weighing about 50 pounds each. This means from $5 and more for a. lamb, a sum greater than can be obtained from the wool of two ordinary sheep, and greater than the price of a. common adult sheep. While every farmer may not suc- ‘ eeed in getting early lambS, yet he can in a. month’s time in growth by judicious 3nd careful feeding, in addition to the milk supply from the ewes. sgrgaks About Himâ€"A Character- A Brine Test.
