The Crops in Manitoba.
- A despatch front 'Winnipeg Oated Aurtet
12th, says : The latest crop rePorts received
by grainmen from every part of the Province
speak very favorably of the prospects.
Crops generally whieh were a week or two
ago thought to be light, are going to turn
out much heavier than earlier advices would
indicate. One great advantage this year,
too, over others, is the early harvest. Al-
though it is now only the llta of August,
harvest may be said to have fairly started
in every locality, and unless the weather
takes a very sudden, change, , froat is not
likely to have the slightest effect- on this
year's wheat. Samples of wisest have been
received from Brandon, Carberry;Oak Lake,
Hartney, Lauder Gretna and Emerson, and
it is plump and heavy, and saperior to lasts
year's in most cases. Wherelfarmers have
failed to bluestene the wheat there is lots ef
smut; but otherwise there. does not seem to
be a fault, and with anything like favorable
conditions the sample should. be excellent
all round. An average of 25 bushels of
wheat to -the acre is not thought to be an
extra.vagant estimate by those best posted.

A Strange PO.
" Sciesice" tells us of a beetle trained by
a young lady until it would pome when she
called it. When first given to her, she
kept it in a box and fed it coa leaves, grass
and fruit. Each day she would put tbe
beetle on her finger and straise it, calling it
softly, " Buggie, Buggie " end then put it
back in the box and fasten down the lid.
One day she forgot to do this, and when
she returned to her room she found the box
empty. She called softly, t Buggie, Bug-
gie !' and the beetle crawled out from his
hiding -place toward her. After this the
beetle was given great freedom. It would
fly or crawl towards its mistress at any
time. As cold. weather approached, the
beetle became less lively, less responsive,
and, being placed on top of a, boiler in the
kitchen for warmth, fell ope day, and was
so badly injured that in died a week Aater.
Many boys and girls love the beautiful in-
sects and bugs that abound in summer in
our latitude, and catch an4 imprison them ;
but comparatively few ever study their
habits, or seek to train ehem. Catching
them and shutting them up in boxes hardly
expresses love either of the creature or of
study, yet often that is the justification
offered for the capture. Jt is like robbing
nests to get the eggs- for a collection, and:
then neither labelling the eggs nor studying
the habits of the birds.
The young lady who trained this beetle
could not do so withoet gaining some
knowledge of its habits, and this increased
her own general knowledge—went just so
far toward making her a better -educated -
woman.

A "King's, Daughter."
A little h street arab" got aboard. a street
car, and finding room 01/ a. seat, leaned over
and fell asleep. His clothes were ragged
and scant. His little bare feet were brown
and toughened, and. his face was dirty. His
hat fell off, and showed an uncombed tangle
of hair. As he lay there asleep with his
little heed on the hard seat, a sweet-faced
well-dressed _young girl who sat opposite
leaned over, and softly slipped her muff un-
der the little fellow's head. A Man near
her nodded approval, and putting his hand
in his pocket, handed. her a piece of money,
beckoning toward the boy as he did so. The
next man did the same, and alittost before
she knew it, with her face aflame, sae had
collected something from every one in the
car. She pat it in his hanand laid it under
his hand. Then softly removing her muff
again, she had the car stoppea and went her
way. e .
Bow They Turned Out.
Twenty-five years age I knew eeery man,
woman and child in Peekskill. And it has
been a etudy with me to mark boys who
startedin every grade of life with myself,
to fiee what has become of them. I was up
last fall and began to count them over, and
it was an instructive exhibit. Some of them
became' clerks, merchants, rosamfacturers,
lawyers, doctors. It Is remarkable that
every one of those that drank is dead; not
one living of my age. Barring a few who
were taken off by sickness every one who
proved. a wreck and wrecked kis family did
it frona ram and no other cause. Of those
who were church -going people, who were
frugal end thrifty, every single one of them,
without an exception, owns the house in
which be lives and has something laid by,
the interest on which, with his house,wouk
carry him through many a rainy day,. When
a man. becomes debased with gambling, rum
or drink he doesn't care; all his finer feel-
ings tixe crowded out." ---Chauncey M.
