"I expect her in every moment." said the landlady graciously. "See ond floor, sir! I'm afraid the stairs are rather dark." Dark they certainly were, for could see nothing whatever but the curtain of .November fog which en tirely enveloped the dingy landing. I stumbled up stairs, however, thankful that the landlady did not offer to accompany me, and entered Mrs. Dare's apartments. As I wait ed one or two little trifles caught my eye, and as I prided myself oil being a judge of human nature they had for jne 'their full significance, The first was a child s headless horse, evidently thrown down after a ftame of play.

A Isree monkey disturbed ; a - large cobra, which was basking in the snn about a hundred yards from the road. The infuriated reptile gave the monkey chase, bnt he took the matter easy till he got to a roox. While perched therethesnake, which hsd been, in close chase, reared np almost to full length and with open hood darted at the monkey. But the latter dodged and ducked on the defensive and allowed tbe reptile to strike forcibly each time against the stone. This went on lor a consider able time till the snake lay out at full length, bleeding and exhausted. Then the monkey seized the snake and rubbed its head clean, off the trunk and afterward climbed a tree, when the persons who had witnessed tbe interesting encounter . treated the victor to Indian corn and sugar eane-Lahore Tribune. ) ; " Kingslay and the Butterfly. ; Charles Kingsley loved well "both man and bird and beast." This fea ture in his character was curiously displayed one Sunday in church. He was iust about to enter the pulpit to preach his sermon when all of a sad den he disappeared from the view of the : congregation. What , was amiss?, It was soon seen, however. that nothing serious had happened. He had only stooped in search of something on the floor, which, when found, ha had taken to the vestry. land what was this something, do you think?. An .injured butterfly which was nattering about on we ground. Being unable to fly away owing to its iniury, Kingsley was afraid it might be trodden on, and so he had interrupted the service of the church until he had removed the wounded insect out of harm's war.

' To go into erect details the engine, boiler, nampe. governors and all were so exceedingly small as to only occupy , a space seven-sixteenths of an wen in diameter, or about the area of an old fashioned silver three cent piece. It wss only five-eighths of an inch high, yet ft contained 148 distinct parts, nearly all of which were silver snd gold. It was held together by 88 screws, the smallest being but cue-hundredth of an inch in length. The engine had s IT the valves, gear ing, etc., to be found on the ordinary- horizentsl engine.

It looked like a forest of eocklebura. To save tbe crop I bad to build a new fence, joining the river on the upper aide of the Held, so the goats could not keep down tbe weeds along tbe river Inside of the field, but tbey kept all tbe eocklebura eaten up clean as tar as tbey could go. Last winter I hired help to beat down tbe ripe eocklebura from the dead bushes inside tbe Held and built a new fence of eight, wires parallel with tbe river and opened tbe whole bottom to the goats this spring after shearing. At that time the eoc klebura and elder bushes bad entirely covered the entire bottom for tba dis tance of nearly a mile, and It looked like tba goats would get lost In there, but after about two months I bad tbe great pleasure to see tbat tbe bottom was as clean from eocklebura and elder aa pecan gatherers may' wlah for. But tbera la one weed tbat my goats do not like. It la tbe wild ssge, and of tbe wild castor beans along tba river tbey do not eat much. I think tbat sheep will eat wild sage, but do not know If tbey eat tbe wild castor bean.
