The Exeter Times, 1879-5-1, Page 7MMt%1., ,1879 oreeeeere AN INDUSTRIOUS 73EE, The misfortunes of a pian are too of- ten the subjects of ridicule by leis friends. For all iuetathce of this we note the following, Gov, cliucks,of the Milwaukee Netiuual Military Aiiyluin, is anxious to break ut the practice of using bis grounds for picnic purposes.. To do this more offeotuelty, he distri- buted through these ground hives of bees. A party,'oblivi')us of bees, was out there mid enjoying itself. Bat wo will lot the reporter telt the story of his • Own words : Well, Sevoranoe of the bend was sit- ting oil the ground dissecting a eared- wick and wondering what was in the bottle that was looking over the edge of tintbasket, when snddonly he felt somehing creselit.g up the inside of his trewsers. He is not as dezn ,nstretive as sotne,bnt as he looked ,'.t tlio strange woman opposite his mind wandered to his tronseve, and the expression ou Lis face was one of anxiety. ile was cairn, to all outward appearance, but within him there waa a vogue louping to know the nature of the beast. It kept ou crawling. Severance is not wealthy, but he zrould have given his note if he eonld have known the species of bug thwt was going up him with' so deliberate and business Eike a twat, Ile Item it was nut au ant,becanse it watt not small enough, and it was not big enongh for a Ileo, though when it stopped and scratched with its hied feet he thought ie very much resembled a hen. Mr. Severance was benotning nervous' He wouldn't begrudge a poor bug the right cf way along his shin, but when is went too for hie mcunood was arous- ed. Ile thought,, "here I atn allowing tin it t to trifle with my feelings and 8 1 oven as though he heel the luck jaw. He felt as though a be r of rail road iron had been shot through his leg out ore cannon. The woman looked at Mini scared, the strange woman particularly whispering to a cotnpa"ion that he was evidently in the last stages. He was about to excuse himself, to go and see a Man, when the strange woman also jumped up, grabbed .tier skirts and shook there, ran around a tree,•aud said,"Got ont," started across the road ou a run, and went np to one of the houses. It was a suppo;tible case that there were just bees enough for two. When she went away Severance went np behind the cook-lionse and investi- gated the matter, and Torn Williams said he kieked something lute the grotu d with his boot heel and jam! ed on it eight or nine times. During the dance that oconrred in the afternoon there tvaa one viohu player that played with great animation, unci a strange woman dewed as though she was hired to. WHY FLOWERS TURN TO THE SUN. Wiesner has presented to the Vienna Academy a monograph upon heliotrop- ism and gec:tropistn in plauts. After a Nieto ;cal sketch, the author treats of the influence of li ht on heliotropism, and shows that with decreasing inten- sity of light the strength of heliotropic effect increases to a certain point, and beyond this point decreases. The low- er limit of light intensity coincides with the lower lirnit of heliotropic effect for the stoppage of growth in leugth,'while the upper limit does not coincide, , or only cccasionally coincides, with the upper limit of heliotropic effect for growth in length. In the case .of very sensitive heliotropic plants, the upper limit of light intensity for stoppage of growth in' length lies higher, and in Tess sensitive plants•lower, than the up- per limit for growth in length, He next considers the relation between the refrangibility of rays and their helio, tropic effect, and shows that portions of very eeneitive haliotropie plants, as Viola sativa, curve in all lights, oven in the ultra -red and ultra -violet, except the yellow. Experiments.on the joint action of hellotropiem end geotropism are next described, and the author con- cludes that the phenomenon of hello - troilism is due to unequal growth upon unequally lighted sides of the plant. AN AttKA.N.SAS COW, t ,judge Grant was in Little Rook, Ar- kansas, in attendance at the United States Court, One Morning be saw a farmer, with a slouch hat, and a gen. cline butternut snit, • trying to sell a cow iu the Parket there. It was a. large, long.horned animal, and the plauter was informing a roan that the cow would give four quarts of milk a day if fed well, Up stepped the Judge. "What did you ask for ties cow ?" "About $30. She'll give five quarts of milk a day if you feed' her well ;" re- plied the planter, and he proceeded to describe her good qualities. Said the Judge : "I have cows on ley farm, not meth more than half as big ae your caw, which give twenty to twenty-five quarts of milk a dry," The planter eyed the judge sharply for a moment, as if trying to remember whether he had ever eeen him before or not, tout th.ni asked, "Where do you lire, stranger?" "My home is in Iowa," "Yes, stranger, I don't dispute it. There was heaps of sogers from lowa clown hero during the war, and, stran- ger, they Was She till-fhredst fibbers in the whole Yankee 'army. 11I ibbe you most be an officer in some of then] re- giments ?" The judge slid for the court house, THE VALUE OF EDUCATION. Jake was heard calling across the fence to a neighbor's son, a colored youth, who goes to school at the Atlitu- ta Colored University : -'Look hyar, buy, you goes ter school, don't yer ?" "Yes, sir," replied the boy, '•Ge.tin' :dd r '. sun • 'aver 11 There is a good deal of "Nature" in Sam Slick's de.cription of a country chniclh in Ms day. Sam says :—Now that's the case with these country con- gregations, we know where. The wo- men and the old targe folk are inside; the young wild hove and untamed men foils are on the fences, pubiide, a settin' on the top rail, a speculatiu' on times, or marriages, or markets, or whatuot, nr s welkin' round and studyin' .hoss flesh, or a talltln' of Ithe swap to be completed of a Monday, or a leaden' off the two bosses on thesly of the old dea- cou s taliin' a a lick ou a half mile ort a by road, right slap ahead, and ewearin' the hostel had got loose, and they was a fetcbin' of them back. "Whose side-saddle is this ?" "Slim Sal Dowdio's. "Shift it to the deaoun's• beast, and put his unto her'n, and tie the two crit - ors together by the tail. This is old Mother Pitcher's waeou; her buss kicks like a grasshopper. Lengthen the breechin', and when aunty starts, he'll make all fly agiu into shavin's, like a plane. Who is that a corrin' along full split there on horseback ?" "It's old Booby's son, Torn. We'li it's the old man's shaft lines ; call out whoa! and he'll stop shop, and ]titch Tom richt over liis head on the broad of his back, whop." "Tim Fish and Ned Pike, come scale no here with us bnys on the fence." The weight is too great ; itway goes the fence, and away goes the boys, all $yin'; legs, arms, flats, poles, stakes, whiles, and all, with an awful crash and awful shot; and away goes two or three bosses that have broken their bridles, and off home link wink. Out comes Elder Sourerout. "Them as won't come in had better stay to home," said he, And when he hears that them as are in bad better stay in when they be there, he takes the hint and goes buck agin. "Corrie buys, let's go to Block Stump Swamp and search for honey. We shall be back in time to walk ]loose with the gals from night tueo'iu', by airly caudle -light. Let's go." .mw. trlcroltt.
