[N A GARDEN- FAIR.
It was a balmy afternoon in ApIil;
the scene 'was the garden of a small
old-fashioned Kentish farm house.
A girl, gray eyed, russet haired, in
a dainty blue frock, sat with some
needle w01k On a rustic bench in the
sunniest spot. To and fro, between its
misness and the gate that opened on
the green hedged road, scampered a
kitten, madly frolicking with a stolen
reel of cotton.
Suddenly, with arched back and
swollen tail, “Fluffy” stopped short, ,1
changed in an instant from the very
incarnation of grace and innocence to
an embodiment of feline hatred and
malice, and all uncharitableness.
The cause of the transformation—a
big St. Bernard dog—stood at the gate
still blinking in ,lordly good humor at
the little white fury.
Pussy, however, continued to’ spit
and swear in impotent wrath until
she provoked a short warning bark
f1om the intruder, accompanied by a
smart pat from a big paw.
And then, ere Annie Bristowe could
reach them, Fluffy, wild with passion,
literally flew at her foe. There was
an angry growl—a snap—a shrill
squeak—a vision of white fur tossing
to and fro, and then the St. Bernard
was growling sullen defiance to, all
and‘sundry over the lifeless body of
. the kitten.
“You great savage monster!” cried
Annie, tearfully, as she bent over poor
Flufl'y; “if only I weren’t afraid, I’d
beat you within an inch of your life!"
But punishment—swift, sudden, eon-
dign—had already overtaken the cul-
prit atthe hands of a stalwart, fair-
mustached young man, in a to‘urist‘
suit, who had arrived breathless. on
the scene of action.
Then, while the St. Bernard whim-
pered in undignified fashion, the
stranger, advancing, raised his cap
and said penitently: .
“Your kitten, I’m afraid, is quite
dead. I’m more than sorry that Rollo
should have so misbehaved. He has
the reputation of being a well conduc-
ted dog, as a rule, I assure you.”
“Indeed,” retorted Annie, with p’olite
incredulity, and waxing furious as she
detected an amused smile, which the
had been unable wholly to suppress,
hovering about the young man’s
mouth, at sight of her tragic distress.
“Indeed? I should hardly have thought
a well behaved or properly trained dog
would have rushed in that murderous
way at an inoffensive little kitten.”
She paused, half defiant, half asham-
ed of the petulant speech, while the
smile vanished from the other's face.
“Pardon me,” he said distantly; “I
regret the affair as much as you do;
but I think you will admit that Rollo
was not, at all events, the aggressor.
I saw. the beginning of the fray,
though, unfortunately, too late to—”
“I see!” Annie broke in scornfully;
you were near enough to witness _it
all, but too far OK, or unwilling, to
prevent mischief!”
And picking 'up the dead body of her
the house. With truly feminine logic
she grew momentarily more furious
as 'she realized hOW' completely she
had managed to put herself in the
wrong by her childish outbreak.
Rollo’s master took a step forward.
then paused irresolutely. '
“Confound it. all,” he multercd.
“This is evidently the place, too. A
promising introduction, upon my
Word.” -
‘He raised his voice:
please, one moment!”
She turned in grim silence.
“This is Sweetbriar farm, I think?”
léYes.!!
“And I have the pl~honor of ad-
dressing Miss Bristowe, perhaps?”
A stiff inclination of her head was
the only reply vouchsafed by Annie.
“Then I’m afraitul mean, I bcl'eve
-—that is—” he stammered awkward-
ly—“I am John Morton: Mrs. Bristowe
did not expect me so early, but—"
Annie uttered a little c1y of dismay.
It was the “paying guest.” as her
mother delighted to phIase it; fo1
whose reception peor Mrs. Bristowe,
worn out with the unending struggle
to make “both ends meet,” had been
p1eparing so hopefully—and this was
his welcome!
“930,” she answered blankly, "she
didn’t. You wrote us to expect you
by the 6.40 train. three hours from
now! We were going to send the trap
to-mee you at‘the station. However,”
forcin a hospitable smile to her lips,
though her eyes were, if possible, more
resentful than ever, “since you have
found your way here by yourself, pray
come in. You are just in time for
tea, and mother,” w'ith ironic empha-
sis, “will be only too pleased to see
you!” .
Still bearing Flufiy’ s limp little body
she led the way, ceremcniously to the
“But—er—stop,

barrassed'silence, while Rollo pattered
dejectedly behind.
A week latei found their visitor on
the best of‘ terms with all the mem- '
bers of the Bristowe family, from the
kindly faced, shiftless farmer down-
ward—save Annie, who, though she
had forgiven Rollo. the original cause
of the, unpleasantness, had extended
but II superficial forgivenness toward
his master. She couldn’t bring herself
to pardon John Morton for the misbe-
havior of which, in her imnost heart,
she knew herself guilty. 'Unreasona-
ble, certainly, but human nature for
in that. g '1
“I can’t imagine.” Mrs. Bristowe
said, fretfully, in private, “why you
can’t behave with ordinary civility to
Mr. Morton; you can be so agreeable
when you choose. You know, too, how
important it is that he should be made
to feel at home. and yet you persist
in wounding and annoying him by a
thousand small discomtesies. ”
“Don’t be afraid, mother,” Annie an— -
swered; flippantly. “since it’s a busl- -
ness matter, I’ll be as sweet as sugar
to him henceforth—in business hours!
Only, as I can’t honestly pro-fess to
feel the intense delight in his company
which apparently inspires. you and
father and the boys, I shall endeavor ‘
to dispense with his presence occas-
ionally. For instance, I think I’ll give
him a hint that, heavy as the big wa-
tering pot is, I’d rafher'carry it round
the garden every evening myself than
have him marching solemnly about the
beds with _me!”
“Dear, dear,” sighed Mrs. Bristowe,
as Annie left the room with a saucy
laugh, “how contrary things do go in
this world. Such a nice, unaffected
fellow, and the place has been so
cheerful again since he came. If only
we could have made it comfortable for
him, we_might have counted on his
coming regularly for his holidays, and
I do believe that he admires Annie,
and—but, there, it’s no use thinking
about it!”
One morning, a. few days later, An-
nie was busied up stairs With the small
maid-of—all-work in bed-making, dust-
ing and tidying generally—there were
no idlers in this modest household.
Presently Sarah summoned her in a
stage whisper from John -Morton’s
room.

Miss Annie; look at this, now! It has

A Motive for a Musical Education.
No influence can be brought into a
home more elevating and refining
than music, but too often the acquir-
ing of musical skill and knowledge
by a child or y0ung person is giVen a
wrong motive. The knowledge is val-
ued as a means of attracting attention
to self rather than to the making of
life to self and to others more lovely
The power to create
sweet melodies for others to enjoy
should be a. great and unselfish pleas-
ure. '
Too rarely is the musical education
used for the brightening of the home.
Too rarely is it considered “worth
while” to play or sing for the grati-
fication of one or more members of a
family or’the family.
Music not only gratifies the sense of
hearing, but is the most powerful
stimulus to the imagination. It paints

very vexed, no doubt, to find it lying
about.”
“It wouldn’t be a sister of his, Miss
Annie, now?” asked Sarah, as she
slowly restored the photograph to its
hiding place.
“No, ” came the reply in an indiffer-
ent tone. “Their names are Mary and
‘Helen—I have heard him speak of

Nutritious Food for Children.
Children need more nutritious food
than older people do; or at least they
suffer more from the want of it. Po-
tatoes, white bread, pastry and the
many kinds of sweets that make up
the food of grown people do not sup-
ply the necessary nutriment for the
‘growing brain, bone and muscle of
children. Sooner or later a diet con-
taining so.much starch will tell on the
system; it may be in a ruined diges-
tive apparatus, weakened bones, or in
many other forms of Weaknesses al-

plain and simple food was the rule.

She hesitated, then, with a hard lit-

perceptible tremolo, she reached up to
the fragrant blooms.
John Morton watched her in silence,
then said awkwardly: “My younger
sister Dolly—Helen, I should say, but
the old childish name drops out una-
wares, sometimes—is very fond of li-
lacs, and I promised to bring her a
bunch!”

She turned a swift. startled glance
upon him, and John Morton stooped
and took her in his arms.

“But you were going away; we
should never have met again,” said
Annie, a little later, as they stood by
the lilac bush.
“0n the contrary,” answered he,

An Engaged Gill in Denmark.
“In Denmark a girl never knows the
pure, unadulterated joy of receiving a
diamond engagement ring,” remarked
a returned traveller. “She gets a plain
gold band known as a wedding ring in
that country, and it is worn on her left
third finger. On the day of her mar-
riage the bridegroom changes it to her
right third finger, which is the mar-
riage finger in that country of queer
customs When the husband dies his
widow changes her ring again to her
left third finger, and cuerybody knows
that she is a widow. Being engaged
can’t mean a great deal of happtness
In Denmark any way yen take it, for

cos permitted to see her betrothed one '

invariably the children are rugged and

to eat care should be taken that they

How Renuet Is Made.
“It is strange. but not one person in
a hundred can tell you exactlv what
rennet it,” said a wholesale dealer in
the commodity. “Rennet is the glutin-
ous membrane covering the stomach
of t‘he‘calf, and its preparation for the
market requires a high degreg of skill.
It is obtained first by cutting away
carefully the lining and soaking it in
salt and water for several days, the
water being changed every day until

Is then placed in a high clean tub, and
the whole mass is covered with the
very best cherry wine. This is al-
lowed to remain on the rennet till it
becomes a thick jelly- like substance,
which is then dissolved in alcohol and
sheiry wine.
“After being reduced sufficiently for
convenient filteIing it is passed many
—often a score of times—through the
filterer, and the result is the clear and
iimpid preparation of commerce known
as rennet. Physic' Ins recommend ren-
net as being most nutritious and bene-
ficial for persons:of weak digestion
and dyspeptics. llilk thickened by
pure rennet is at once partly digested

Bye for Pasture.
Rye may be sown for pasture eitheI
in the fall or in the early spring.' In
"function as a forage’iplant is to replaCI
or supplement the dry fall pasturI
grass, and to aflord succulent foragt
in the early spring before the grass 11
ready to be pastured. For this pur
pose it is best sown in the fall. 11
sown about September 1 it will effort
good pasture ,in, the late fall whet
most of the other forage plants‘haw
succumbed to frost. To obtain tht
best results with milch cows this pas
ture should be supplemented with oth
er feed. In the spring it affords mori
luxuriant forage and may be pastured
as soon as the land is fit to turn tin
cattle on (T. L. Lyon, Bulletin 53, Ne
braska Experiment Station). It ‘ i1
eaten with relish by stock up to tin
time of blossoming. After that tnI
stalks are too woody to be relished by
stock.
If it is desired to use it for pas
ture later than this, it should be sowi
in the spring. By sowing rye it is possi
ble to use land for early pasture, plov
it up and use for a summer crop, o
for summer pasture with another for
age crop. Seed at the rate of 1%- to :
bushels to the acre, either. with a prcsr
drill or broadcast. After the plant:
are up, keep the surface of the sol
loose with the barrow. Do not pas
ture in the fall until the plants havc
become well established. Many dairy
men object to rye pasture on thI
grounds that it gives an unpleasan'
taste to the milk and butter. It seem:
possible to remove this objection by
taking the cattle off- the rye two 01
three hours before milking and by
feeding something in addition to ӣ111
rye—American Agriculturist.

of the seed that exhausts the vitality
Some varieties of f1uit are 1ecog

turing their enormous crop this yeai
that they have no time to preparc
fruit buds for the next; besides, thei:

and judicious thinning, these samI

Burning Stumps.
The months of August and Septem

farming is more aggravating that

There is no better way than to burr
them out, and this may be done by 5
simple and cheap method.

over the large stumps is used. This
cylinder tapeis into a cone- shaped fig
ure the size of a stovepipe. Severa-
joints of. stovepipe are then added t(
this and the whole apparatus is placed
over the stump. Previous to this the
soil is dug away from around the
stump and a. fire is kindled; then thi
cylinder is added, the smoke evolve:
from the pipe and you have a good
working stove, principle complete. T111

as if it were put in a stove manufac
tured for the purpose. There is morI
profit derived from the destruction oi
stumps than many suppose. More
work can be done in a day in a field
free from stumps, and a larger yield
will also be the result. Spare nothing
