He had gulped down'liis sup- per, stored away the unsold vegetables, washed down as far as the ring round his neck, sneaked into the bedroom, and was lost in round-eyed contempla- tion of the five-weeks—old pink atom in there, when that queer sort of whisper . came through the doorway. “Bill!” She edged in farther. “Don’t - . yer love me? Ain’t you got the loveliest boy ever a man longed for? Or are you going to think more 0’ the child than me now?” . . “You’ll wake him! What d’yer mean, gal?" gasped Bill, taking .the cutty‘ “What do Imean? Ah! you know well enough. But- we don’t want no words about it.

Blowed if I hadn’t—-" “Bill, you know you’d forget your head, you would. But that don’t mat- ter; there’s the child, and you know now.” She folded her arms, and looked up- at the crack in the ceiling. “As I said, we don’t want no words, we’ve been so nice together; but I s‘pose I may speak in my own house. I only' ask what’s the dear mite’s name to be? —his name, wot’ll mean one thing or It’other for him through life." “Him? Why, Bill, of course—Bill Simmons,” said he—or rather, falter-ed it. “Didn’t I settle that long ago— so’s we needn't change the name on the barrows.” “Oh! you did? Well, then, there never ain’t no telling, is there?” and Mrs. Simmons tittered a little hyster- ically, as she fumbled behind the pic- ture of Garibaldi. “There, I think it’s his mother’s place to settlethat. So “when you go to the registrar, you’ll take this bit 0’ paper, and see he puts it down prop’ly. Here it is—and no words; er—Ermyntruda Marmaduke.” “Erming—what?” Bill swayed up, his eyes goggling. “That boy?" “That boy. Why shOuldn’t he have a duke’s name as well as anyone? You ton found that name in a paper, and we ain’t going back on it.” “You—give it here!” said Bill, hus- kily, making a snatch. “Blimy, it’s a plant! You’ve left it till now so as— Mrs. Pippleton? Who’s she? I’ll break her blooming neck. I’ll—” “That’s it! Send the baby into a fit, along of your beastly temper. I knew how it would be. As sure as you stand r kid that’s going to sell carrots on the kerb along 0’ me! north 0’ tunnip-tops, Mister Ermyntru- I’ll see about that. and Bill he sticks.” “So you say! Mr. Simmons. that child’s not going in the carrot line, nor any other; he’s go- ing in the civil scrvidge, or not at all, where they go up and take their money and walk out again; either that or a bcei‘house, so 110w! And as for Mrs. got, if you go down those stairs and make words between them, , shan’t have no name at all! And I’ll let him know every day as his own blessed father sat down and conspir- ated to ruin him. Now!” Shc swung out. Bill stood staring at the paper—a morsel torn from “The Bandit of Blue Gulch.” Ermyntruda Marmaduke—he sweated even now at ‘the very thought of being asked the nippcr’s name. Ermyn—Stewed eels and gin! It was past bearing. He caught up his cap and went down the stairs-quickly enough to catch Mrs.» Pippleton edging off. She had been listening, then. He clenched his fist as she snorted and cluttered her fireirons. “Yus; for two brass pins I’d down yer,” he said, in a whisper. “I know you would; but there‘s only one. in the house, as it happens. Hark, who’ll do the downing! P'rhaps you’ll get off my oilcloth.” Bill strode down the street, his neck red and puffed, to the pub at the cor— ner; Pippleton was calling for a pen- north of shag when he felt his car pulled. “What ho, Bill! what’s yours 2‘“ “Yus, I know all about that; I’ll bu my own. Now, what game’s this—you and your missus? D’yer see that there? —my kid’s name. That’s what you’ve bunged into her head between you; but it'won’t come off—see?" ' “Ermyn—” Pippleton stared. “Not me, Bill. nothink about it. Lumme! They’ve been and ’cocted it between ’em. Why, it’s a gal’s. name, ain’t it?" “No, yer fool, it’s a duke’s name; and I’m to go to the registrar's and spit that out. Me! Swop .my bob, Pip, I don’t_want no row. but I’ve got to have it out with your missus or someone be- fore I’ve done. It’s all her; my Harriet can't even read back’ards; you know that.

Now look here, Bill; I’ve got no kids, so i ain’t never had no bother; but they’ve got this idea into their heads. Well and good; you was a fool to kick.

The rest died in a dramatic whisper: but enough that they nudged each oth- er, and that Bill rubbed his hands, stood drinks all round the bar and went home singing " ‘What’s in a name?’ says Shakespeare.“ Sharp as one o'clock struck that- next day, Bill left hisstall to itself and ran to meet Pippleton at the corner. Five minutes later they were pausing nerv- ously outside the registrar’s office. ' “It‘s all right," Pippleton whispered.‘ “I-Iow’ll they know? You met the reg- istrar tearing along with a summons for not doing it sooner, and he wouldn’t have that Ermingtrooda at no price— stuck out it was a duke’s patent fam- ’ly name; and jest at the very last min— nit you thought of ‘Bill.’ Who's he? Come on.” ' Bill spot on both hands;.they took off their caps, and walked into the pres- ence 9f the great man, where he sat among his awesome volumes. They nudged and pushed each other for- ward; and then at last Billlgot rid of his “ ’Appy New Year t’ yer, sir!” (“I’m sure,” echoed Pippleton.) . “Er—we’ve just called in to put down" the buth of a newborn male child—not his, mine.

Outline of a-Syslem I‘Vhich \Vould Give Direct and Indirect Ben- efits Io Agriculture. If we admit that forestry is profitable it is desirable to develop the best plan of forest reservation, a system which would at the same time insure the per- sonal interest in the forests themselves by the people of the district and all the direct and indirect benefits to agricul- _,ture which the forest could give. Were it desirable to reserve One-half of the good tillable land in forests, then with homes/tends of a quarter section each the reservation of alternate 40 acres would enable the forests to most completely protect the farming lands and at the same time place the wooded Al wings-u- legend‘s nus-slu- lugs-sis age-nus .

Should it be practicable to reserve only one-quarter of the tillable land in forest areas, then with quarter section homesteads the reservation which would secure the most equitable dis- tribution of forest influence and leave the woods themselves at least danger from fire would be to reserve the north- east quarter of the northwest quarter and the sdutheast quarter of the north- east quarter in the north half of every section, and the southwest quarter of "the soutlieasrt quarter of the south half of the same section, as shown in Fig. 1. Then if systematic forestry is at all worthy of encouragement by the state, one simple method of doing so would be to make certain requirements of the owners of the land, and as a. compensa- tion for these requirements exempt the forested areas from taxation for a. peri- od of 20 or 40 years as-seemed- most do- sirable, on condition that the require- ments are fulfilled. Such a system would decrease the cost of the forest crop, which is necessarily large on ac- count of the-great length of time re- quired to bring it to maturity—Ameri- . can Agriculturist. , ORNAMENTAL HEBGES. hill-kill- nun-Inl- lulu-Inn % I Some Hardy Ever-greens Which Nir- ture Seems to Have Produced for This Purpose. There is nothing that adds greater beauty. to the home surroundings than a well-kept hedge‘of either evergreen or deciduous shrubs, adapted for hedg- ing purposes, says Wallace’s Farmer. There are several evergreens that can be used and are admirably adapted for hedging, if one has a. moist, retentive soil; and the American arbor vitae is the best free to plant, planting the plants about( two feet apart in the row. If the land is dry, the red cedar is the best evergreen for. planting. They should have the best of cultivation for a couple of years from planting; at which time, they should be cut to a uniform height of two and a half to three feet. After this, the only pruning that hedge will need will be ashorten- ing back of the long growth, so as to in- duce a thickening up of the branches. In pruning a hedge after it has got some age, it is best to use some pruning shear adapted to that use. The ever- green hedge should be trimmed atleast once a year, and this during the ,firs’t week in July. It is necessary in prun— ing the hedge, that you do not cut back to where you did the previous year, as there must be a little of the last year’s growth left so as to stimulate and give health to the hedge. The best decidu- ous shrub that we have is the Berbcrry. By planting a hedge of this, you will have two varieties: The purple leaf and the green leaf. hedge, by planting them alternately of each variety; and at two or three years old, they will make a hedge that is'three feet high and eight feet through. It is easily kept in shape by pruning, and is adapted to either low orhigh exposures, as it is very hard y, and we would recom- mend _ifs planting. as we know of no plant that will make as great an ef—. feet as the above two sorts, planted as we suggest. - \ NUTRITION IN FRUITS. .
