A party of nimrods wen: for a shoot-
ing exoursiou the other day, taking a
horse and rig a part of the way with
them. They left their pony tied to a
tree, while they went iu pursuit of their
game. The animal, it seems, got tired
of its lonely position, broke loose and
started hunting on its own account,
leaving our brave hunters to "plod their
way homeward" on foot. They got their
pony next day after having quite a hunt
for him.
The Farmers' Advocate gives the fol-
lowing sensible advice to farmers' eons.
It says: "Go to the Agricultural Col-
lege, young man. but don't be in a hurry
about it; wait at least nutil you are
nineteen or twenty years old. Mean-
time, read, study and think, gain all the
practical experience you can and if yon
are the right stamp, when yon go you
will make the most possible out
of the course, and certainly never regret
the step yon tonic."
Myriads of }Inman lives have been
sacrificed in a vain effort to accomplish
something whielf otifers have failed in
doing. The north pole especially claims
its sacrifices. It is said that more than
4,000 lives, 200 ships and $100,000,000
have been expended at various times in
efforts to reach the North Pole. On this
computation. shonld the goal ever be ac-
hieved, every acre of ground in the
whole Arctic region will have been
bought and paid for at better than mar-
ket rates. - Moncton Transoript.

Seeding has been proceeding briskly
since the middle of August and seems
likely to do so for a couple of weeks
yet.
We are glad to learn that our new

general satisfaction. Already he seems
to be a great favorite with the young
folks.
Sabbath last was the communion in
Calvin church. The pastor was well
assisted on that as well as other days on
which services were held by the Rev. T.
Meir, of Fordwieh The attendance
was very good though not quite what it
would have been had the weather been
more propitious.
Harvesting operations have been pro-
ceediug very slowly for the last two or
three weeks in consequence of the very
unfavorable nature of the weather.
Even the oldest inhabitant cannot re-
member a more backward season. The
crops, spring grain especially, gave very
good promise, but spring wheat, of which
there was considerable breadth in this
locality, was here, as elsewhere, a com•
pieta failure.
The Brockville Recorder, edited by
Hon. G P. Graham, very properly ob-
jects to the tone of the circular recently
issued by Hon. Nelson Monteith. which
announces that it is the iutention of the
provincial government at the next ses-
sion of the L'gislative Assembly to in-
troduce and pass an act to repeal the
county councils act. The announce-
ment is altogether too autocratic, and
treats the Iuotnbers of the Assembly as
being nothing better than so many rub-
ber st unps.-Brantford Expositor,

Egg -Market Requirements. recently met at Ann Arbor, Mich.
Eggs to be palatable should be eaten The Lnoknow Caledonian Society has
in a strictly fresh condition; therefore, decided not to hold the annual games
they should reach the consumer without this year. It will be remembered they
delay. This requires, (1) that the eggs were postponed on account of bad

stored iu a cool room (temperature 40 to
50 degrees F.) until a sufficient number
are on hand to deliver to a dealer; (2)
chat the dealer forward the eggs to the
merchant at least once a week: (3), that
the merchant should protect the eggs
from deterioration while in his posses-
sion.
Some farmers are so situated that they
can establish a city trade in fresh eggs
throughout the year. Strictly fresh
eggs shipped from the farm to the oity
merchant weekly. are usually bought at
a premium of several cents per dozen.
For all farmers a most profitable branch
of the business is in the trade in fresh
winter eggs. Every winter there is a
demand for new -laid eggs; the supply
of new -laid eggs is limited, and high
prices per dozen are paid. Exporting
firms bey greater quautities during the
spriug and summer months.
There is a growing preference on the
home markets for brown•ehelled eggs.
The shells shonld be wiped clean, if
necessary, and the eggs graded in size.
For shipment to the merchant, the eggs
should be peeked into cases holding 12
or 30 dozen each. F. 0, ELroID,

of land and seeded 11 with White Cham-

of Seaforth. He threshed the oats on
Monday and the two measured acres
yielded 160 buehels of weighed grain, or
80 bushels to the acre. This is an ex-

can be beaten in the province.

THE READING HABIT.'
Newspaper reading has become a pro-
nounced national habit in Canada, less
marked in our cities than those of the
United States, but more evenly diffused
throughout the country. A prominent
English visitor, who recently spent a
week among some Ontario farmers liv-
ing in the back townships, testified that
they were remarkably intelligent, far
more so than the average English farmer.
This may be said of all the country
places in Canada. Isolation in geography
begets a desire to keep in touch with
centres by reading. In towns and cities,
owing to excellent educational systems,

AN EXPERT ON LYING.
He Was Allowed to Testify Ia Cam,*
and Won the Case.
A Kansas City lawyer tells of the
use of expert testimony on lying. 110
says:
"I was prosecuting attorney for Fin.
ney county in 1881, and bad a fellorlt
up before Squire N. C. Jones on the
charge of horse stealing. He hired
Mike Sutton to defend lain, and when.
the ease was called I proved beyond
question by a witness who witnessed
the theft that we bad the right man.
After the prosecution bad rested Sut-
ton introduced 'Buffalo' Jones as st
witness and gravely informed the court
that he intended to prove by him that
my witness had lied. 'Buffalo' took
the stand and swore that, while he had
never seen or heard of the witness be-
fore and knew nothing at all about time
crime committed, he had had a great
deal of experience with men and could
tell pretty certain when they were
lying. Then he proceeded to tell horn
men acted when they were lying, and
gave the expert opinion that my wit-
ness bad sworn to lies from the word
go. I protested against such perform+
ances, but Sutton made the judge be-
lieve he had as much right to intro
duce an expert on liars as he would
have to introduce an expert on medl•
cine or any other science, and the re•
cult was the thief was dismissed froma
custody."

A VAST STONY WRECK.
The North Cape, Iso Norway, Is Aleuts*
the World's End.
The North cape, Norway, is not quite
the most northerly land in Europe, but
it is far enough north, a dismal black
point jutting out into the sea nearly
a thousand feet high. Leading to the
top is a rough path not difficult to asp
cend unless it be wet and slippery.
From the top to the edge of the cliff
is a half mile or more of hard walking
over stones or through mire.
At last we come to the edge of tbs.
cliff. The sun, though it is nearly 12
o'clock, has almost reached the lowest
edge of his daily path, but Is still far
above the shimmering sen. You stand
on that lonely point feeling, except for
the presence of those around you, that
you are quite out of the world in which
you have hitherto spent your life. Yeo
stand without on a rock pelted by ev-
ery storm of wind and snow. Attacked
by the Eery summer sun and pitiless
winter front, no wonder that lielthes
tree nor shrub nor scarce a flower cant
exist. Among the most solemn places
on the globe It must be reckoned the
world's end, a vast stony wreck pro•
jetting above the wide waste of wa•

The Tearkerchief.
In some parts of the Tyrol a beauti-
ful though curious custom . prevails.
When a girl is going to be married ani
just before she leaves for the church
her mother gives her a handkerchief,
which is called a tearkerchlef. It is
made of newly spun and unused linen
and with it the girl dries the natural
tears she sheds on leaving horse. The
tearkerchlef is never used after Oa*
marriage day, but Is folded up and
placed In the linen closet, where it re-
mains till its owner's death, when it is
taken from its place and spread eves
her dead face,
Know Tour Own Mind.
The great majority of people need
bracing up all the Cline. They want to
be reassured. They do not know their
own minds. They are not sure of
themselves. The leader, the man who
can rule others, must be master et
Bila art. Encourngement is to many,
mer, what flattery is to some women. -s
Success.
How He Avoided It.
"Dere you ever been hissed off the
singe?" asked the girl who was thrill-
ed at having met n real actor.
"Ob, no," he replied. "When I'm O.
the stege I always try to be among
friends as much as possible.".
