A farmer's son had the misfortune to fall in love with two young ladies at onee. The one was a large and bouncing girl of generous proportions, the other was small and slim.

'tontine, Towns Without Taxes, It was recently reported from Ger- many that there was a little town within the empire in which there were no taxes. The town possessed bene- factions, the revenue from which en- abled it to pay its way without the intervention of the tax gatherer. France never likes to be outdone by anything (Merman, so a Parrs contem- porary has set itself the task of find- ing a parallel. Something more than a parallel has been discovered, for not only are there no taxes but the tim- bers on the communal lands are sufficient to grant each person a small annuity. This happy land is 3lont- marion, in Midi. There are seven electors in the hamlet, so to avoid anything like rivalry the seven return themselves to the local council, Cutting down the trees and selling them is sufficient to provide a liveli- hood for these simple folks, whose t..stes are so modest that they may be termed by some uncivilized.—From the London Globe. Locomotor Ataxia. "My nerves were very bad, and I could not sleep at night, nor could I control my arms or legs," writes Mrs. Robt Bustard, Maxwell, N. B. "Dr. Chase's Nerve Food cured me of what I believe was the early stage of loco- motor ataxia or paraiysis. I cannot describe what I suffered, but now I am entirely cured," Six persons were drowned in Lae le Grand, near Chenneville, Que., by the upsetting of a boat. If all the printed patents stored in the Patent Office Building in Washing- ton were laid end to end they would reach almost three times around the world. Placed .d i n a pile 10 feet square they would norm a mass as high as the Washington nIonument.

Yet even the diligent use of the implements design- ed for the wholesale destruction of these pests often allows many a thistle and weed to escape. It would be good practice, therefore to spend as much time as possible in the fields with the spud. Not only will many a weed be • put otit of harm's way by taking; this precaution, but far more will be done by way of prevention. It is especially important that the flekls intended for geed should be carefully spudded.

A VERSE FOB THE BEGGAR,. Victor Hugo's Response to the Old Blind Soldier's Appeal. A Frenchman, writing recently upon 'The Ilteutlicants of Paris," recalls a pretty anecdote of Victor Hugo and a blind beggar. The beggar was an old soldier, very feeble and quite sight- less, who was led every- day by his little granddaughter to a certain street corner, where he waited patiently for such scanty arms as the hurryipg pub- lic might drop luta a small box that hung from his neck. One day a group of gentlemen halted near him, chatting, and he heard the name by which they called the one who lingered longest. Reaching for- ward as he, too, was about to go, he caught him by the cont. "What do you want, my good man?" asked the gentleman. "I have already given you 2 sous." "Yes, monsieur, and I have thanked you," replied the veteran. "It is some- thing else that I want," 'What IS it?" "Verses." "You shall have them;" said the gen- tleman, and he kept his word. The next day the blind soldier bore on his breast a placard with a stanza to which was appended the name of Vic- tot` Hugo, and the alms in tbe boat were quintupled. The lines may be thus translated: Like Ilelisarius and like Homer blind, Led by a young child on his pathway dim, The hand that aids his need, pitying and ]rind, Ire will not see, but God will see for him. How One Word Was Born. The two friends had been dining on divers and sundry strange dishes at the Cedars of Lebanon cafe, in the Syrian quarter of New York. Theg were drinking tLeir coffee, thick with coal black grounds, and wondering whether they really enjoyed it, When Smithers suddenly cried out: "Pataugl Pataugl„ The waiter hurried away and Caine back presently bringing an ordinary corkscrew. "I was just testing," said Smithers to his companion, "the truth of the story that the first corkscrew seen in Beirut was brought there by a Yankee. It was a patented American contrap- tion, and the Syrians were amazed at its convenience. They spelled out on it the mystic words, 'Pat. Aug. '70,' and took that to be the name of the imple- ment. Now, I believe the story that pataug is its name all over the Levant" —New York Sun. The First Quarantine. From alt aceounts tate eustom of quarantine originated in Venice some- where about the beginning of the twelfth t•entury. Ali merchants and others coaling frmn the eastern coun- tries were obliged to remain in the house of St. I.E:znrus for a period of forty darts before they were admitted into the city. 'Taking the idea from Venice, other European cities, espe- civilly port towns, instituted quaran- tine during -seasons of plague, and well merit into modern tines most nations adopted the system, applying it when it was deemed uetcssary, Youthful Wisdom.

Fury of the Belligerent Birds In Their. Must In the Air. An old time observer its Maryland sass that the I4;asternn Shore eagles can ily faster, remain in their lofty bight fain er and descend from it to the earth with tit more velocity than any other cre- nted thing with wings. Ile also says that the fierceness of the eagles and the tenacity and power of clutch they tun put into their immense salonS are beyond belief, and he cites as an ia- stanee of it a fight between two of the big birds that be once saw. Just what incited the two eagles to the combat this spectator of the fight slid not know, but they came together high in tbe air. A long time the two fierce birds fought with beak and talon and wing, rushing upon one an- other, delivering their blows and re- treating for advantage in a new at- tack. Tilen at last they clinched and fought at close,.quarters. IDs that position they came plunging to the earth, but neither made any ef- fort to stay the fall, so desperately in- tent was each on the savage battle. They struck together in the freshly turned furrow of a plowed field, and the impact failed to separate them or to cause an instant's delay in the fight, and the coming ou the seeue of a man with a Club, with which he at once toelr part in the battle, did not distract their attention from one another, and the Ivan killed them both. Their tal- ons were buried so deeply in each oth- ers flesh that to separate the two belligerent eagles it was necessary to cut off their legs.—New York Sun. Married Young to heat Smallpox. When 1 was a lad the number of people whose faces were pitted with •l:nalipox was legion. "Blind from smallpox" was on the card worn by most of the unfortunate street beg- gars who had lost their sight. The anxiety of parents to have their daughters married at an age which would now be considered almost scan- dalously immature was one by -result of the frequency and severity of small. pox. If a girl's fare were marred her prospects of matrimony were, of : nurse, impaired, and the ambition of mothers—so common was smallpox— was to see their- daughters safely mar- ried before they caught the disease.— From Walter Gilbey's "Recollections of Seventy Years" in Nineteeuth Cen- tury. - What Life is.

A London publisher once determined to publish at least one book which should be faultless in the matter of errata. Ile had the proofs corrected by his own proof-readers with the greatest rare until they had exhausted 1 their skill and patience, and assured him that there were no longer any er- rors to be eliminated. Taking dupli- cate proofs of the hist revise, he sent them to the universities and other large publishing houses, offering large mon- ey prizes for each error discovered, A few errors only were found, and after leveryone had a chance to detect any additional errors the plates were made, the book printed, expensively bound and sold as an absolutely perfect book, and unique in all literature. For a long time this was conceded, but six or eightht months after itspublication a letter Called the publisher's attention to an error in a certain line and page. Later a second was announced, and be- fore the first year had elapsed some four or five errors had been reported.

Fit rubbers in place, put the tops on loose- ly, and set the Jars on a perforated board in a boiler. Pour cold water around them towithin two or three inches of the top. Bring the water to a boil and cook the peas forean hour. Take the jars out and use the contents of one jar to fill the others, if they have cooked away. Put them back in the boiler, and after they have cooked fifteen minutes tighten the tops and boil them four or five hours. Take out and invert on the table. If a drop of water oozes out they must be returned to the boiler and heated again after better rubbers are put on. POPULAR STALLIONS.
