"Oh it's all very well for you, old Blazes, to ehange the subjectin that way, but I'm nettled et your implied objection to my getting mar- ried if I choose. However, we won't quarrel over it, so here goes for the point. There aro two points which trouble me just now, Frank, and I wain your opinion in regard to theta. Thefirstis, laiss Tippet. She is a small point, no doubt, Wh01.1101` NVO regard her physically or mentally, but she is by no means a mean point if we •regard her Fenian ly„ for the good that that little woman does in a quiet unobetrusive way is almost incredible. Well, Miss Tippet has been much out of sorts of late, mentally; and Mr. Tippet, who is the kindest man alive, has been very anxious about her, and has begged of roe to try to counsel and comfort her. Now, it is not an easy matter to comply with this re- quest, • because, in the first place, Miss Tippet does not want inc to counsel or comfort her, so far as I know; and, in the second place, my rootives for attempting to do so might be misunderstood." "How so ?" exclaimed Frank quick- ly. • "Well, you know, Miss Ward lives with her„ said Willie, with a modest look. There was again something' pecu- liar about Frank's expression and manner, as he said, "Well, it would not signify much I dare say, if peo- ple were to make rentarks about you and Miss Ward, for you know it would net be misconstruction atter "What meaa you 7" asked Willie in etesprise. "You remember what you once said to me about e our bosom being on fire," pursued Frank, "I suppose.: the fire has not been got under yet, has it ?" Willie burst bine a loud laugh. "Why Binges, do you not know—? But no matter; we came here to talk of business; after that is done we can diverge to love. You moist know Frank„ that the cane of Miss Tip- pet's disturbance jast now is 'the strange conduct of her landlord, David Boone, who has been going 031 of late in a way that would justify hie friends punning him 111 an 11Sy- I111O, Ills business agairs UM, I fear, in 0 boll wee., and he not only comes with exceseive punctuality foe mien Tippet's rent, but he ti.Sks her for loane: of money in a wild inco- herent fashion, and favors her with cautions and warnings of a kind that are utterly ieenmprehensible.

I confess myself utterly none] u seed." "I don't know whatto think," said 'Ermineafter a pause. "Either the matt must be mad, or he wishes to rob Miss Tippet's house in ber ebsence." Willie 'admitted' that the first sop - position might be true, but he held stoutly that the second was impos- sibly, for Boone was too honest for that. Willie, moreover, said he would go and consult Ins friend Barret. about it. "You know Barret, Prank ?" "No; bute nave beard of him." "An, hen: a firsI, rate fellow—in one Of the insurance offices,' forget which. came to know hint when nest went to Mr. Tippet's. - He and I became graat friends when lie lived under our workshop.

It would only be requited for a time, because I mean to—ah, well, no matter—but how and where is it to be got? Good lir. Tippet is of no use, be- cause he is mad." "fad,, WiJlie ?" "Ay, mad as a March hare. For years back I have suspected it, but now 1 am sure of it; in fact, I feel that I 3ia.V0 gradually come to be his keeper—but more of that anon.

"Perhaps," replied Willie, "but doubt it, for he's a blunt old fellow in his feelings, however sharp he may be in his business; besides, Loo is so weak now that very few are allowed to see her except Ziza, and Miss Tippet, and Emma Ward. The brothers remained silent after this for some time, for neither of them could see his way out of their difficulties; at last Frank euggested that Willie should go home and con- sult his mother. "She is wise, Willie, end has never given us bad advico yet." "I know what her first advice will be," said Willie. "What ?" asked Frank. "To go and pray about it," an- swered Willie. "Well, she might give worse ad- vice than that," mid Frank with much earnestness. 'lln fact, doubt if sive could give better." "True," assented Willie, "caid now, old fellow, I'm off.

A simple method to prevent the growth of horns on calves, which is n practiced to seine extent by stock. y keepers 111 this country, is also being d followed. abroad, The English board of agriculture gives the following directions. for the use of caustic po- tash ; Clip the hair from the top of the horn when the calf is from two to five days old. Slightly moisten le the end of a stick of caustic potash $ with water, or moisten the top of o the horn bud, , and rub tbe tip al e each horn firmlywith the potash for la about a quarter of a minute, or un- Itil a slight impression has been made s I on the centre of the horn, The horns a shoul4 be treated in this wey from y two to four thugs at intervals of s five minutes. If, during the intee- ✓ val of fine minutes after one or more e applications, a little blood appears o in the centre of the horn, it will e then only be necessary to give an - 1) other very slight eubbiug with the potash. 3. Tonowing directions should be 1 carefully observed : Tho operation is y best performed when the c.alf is 110 - der five days old and should not be e attempted after the ninth day. Cans- o tici potash can be obtained from any - druggist in the form of a white o stick. When not in use, it should s be kept in a stoppered glass bottle t in a dry place, as it rapidly 'deter- iorates when exposed to the air. One man ehould hold the calf while an assistant uses the caustic. Roll a piece of tinfoil or brown paper around the end of the stick of potash which is held by the fingers, so as not to injure the hand of the operator. Do not moisten the stick too much, or the caustic may spread to the ekin around the horn and de- stroy the flesh. For the same reas- on, Seep the calf from gotta* wet for some days after the operation. one to 1, quarts at a feed. Don't overfeed; it is not a big quantity of milk that makes a calf grow, but a small quantity, at tbe proper tem- perature, fed regularly in a clean pail. I like to continue with whole mine for two weeks, then begin to taper off to sidiu. At the end o four weeks I am feeding twice a day four quarts skin -mak at a feed, with two small handfuls of old process linseed meal thrown in dry ad mix- ed with the rnilk at each feeding. I begin to use the meal and the skim milk together, a little of each at first, and gradually increase the quantity of both until I have arriv- ed at the above amounts ;sometime between the third and fourth week, depending upon the vigor of the calf. I never give more than eight quarts milk a day at any age. A box of bran is placed where the calf can get at it from tbe start. As soon as she begins to eat the bran I feed the tnilk but twice a day. Clover or fine timothy hay is Be leveed to rub on the venter of the horn, and not around the side of it. Caustic potash is poisonous, and must therefore be kept in a safe piece.
