D. C. Bradshaw, Secy.
A Princely Anaeh'onism.
The Priftee of Mohjico, who has just
died, reigned over a trifle less than
eight an I a h ilf sq i ire miles of. terri
tory, with a population of 8,000 per
sons, all titled nobles in their own
right. His principality is defended by
an army numb ring seventy-two offi
cers and men, and his people, besides
enjoying aristocratic titles, are exempt
from taxation, the expenses of the em
pire being p.iid by gambling-house
franchises.
The whole matter is absurd enough
to furnish forth a ''Pinafore opera, but
the comedy has. been played with pro
fonndest seriousness for hundreds of
years, and there isn't a king ora titled
personage in Europe who has ever ren-
i - , '" Mt :.. foi. th-
ttrnt its absurdity is really no greater
than that of every other monarchical
establishment that exist among civil
ised people.
It is all a sham, of course, but so
are all its fellows. It is monarchy re
duced to the lowest terms. It is the
kernel that is hidden in the wrapping
of royalty in Russia, Germany, Italy,
and all the rest. It is an anachronism,
but not an absurder one than is the
German empire or the Russian auto
cratic state,. It is the -embodiment
of the kingly idea, and that idea is it
self a survival of medievalism which
would make angels laugh at its pres
ecne in this matter-of-fact modern
world if it did not so often afford them
occasion for grieving.
These ancient fictions linger as a
bad sttttflL tarries in a room; free air
will expel them after a little while
when class privilege is deprived of its
power and men come clearly to see that
reigning is crime.
Undersold the Owner.
u Your reference to the bantering
style of doing business calls up many
funny reminiscences,." said an old mer
chant. " I must tell you of one oc
currence that took place in a neighbor
ing country store. The proprietor was
poted for being particularly affable and
obliging to his customers and he had a
clear headed and smart young man for
clerk. One day one of the best custo
mers of the concern called to buy a
dress putter p. The. price was Tfcents,
and after a long talk the clerk closed
the bargain at 70 cents. While the
clerk was selecting the trimmings, &e.,
in another part of the store, the genial
proprietor came along rubbing his
hands, inquired after the family of the
I customer, praised her taste in selecting
that particular piece or goods, and as a
special favor to the customer, let her
lwive it for 68 cents per yard. The
clerk returned and the lady told of the
reduction the proprietor had made.
The clerk was furious, but not in the
least disconcerted. He saw that if the
customers thought that he was selling
higher than others in the store they
would avoid him and his discharge
would follow. So he says:
" i just looked at the bill and can
sell you that piece at 05 cents a yard.1
" When the deal was completed the
proprietor was as angry as the clerk.
'Do you know that I made the
price 08 cents? 1 said the proprietor.
" Ye?,' said the clerk, 4 but I want
you to understand J hat no man can
undersell me in this store.'
" He kept his job." Utica Observer.
Stamps from ths Slot.
An ingenious machine was exhibited
to Postmaster General Dickinson short
ly before he retired from ottice, and if
it should strike his successor as favor
ably as it did him, may be in general
use before long, remarked an official
of the Baltimore postoffice. k,It is an
idaptation of put-a-nickel-in-the-slot
machine to the sale of postage stumps.
Ajiheet ot stamps is cut into slips the
width of two stamps, and these alios
are wound around a cvlinder insioV
the machine. A nickel is placed in
the slot, which drops down, starts an
electric current, which causes the stamp
cylinder to revolve, the slip of stamps
glides along and passes under a row of
needles, which drops down and cuts off
two stamps.
The owner of the nickel waits a

Large Cows aad Little Milk.
The Farmers' (Irish) Gaete ays:
The dairyian who bHvs a big eow,
giving a'iittfe mess of . milk, fur the
sake of having heavyweight as a basis
for Iwel at tht WttH nation ot ner use-
fulness, is Tike a manufacturer who
buys a bisf .reara engine for dmng a
little work, for the sake of having n
heavy Weight l)fr?dd iron-to sell when
the engine is done with. The waste of
food for keeping the excessive weight
of the big cow warm, and the waste of
steam in keeping hot the needless iron
in the big engine, are very analogous,-
and there te a '.striking similarity be
tween the old iron in a worn-out en
gine and the beef in a woriiMnitrcow.
The editor also gives the following
reasons why the last milk drawn fr. m
the udder is the richest in cream! Be
cause, he says, it is at the top of the
bag when milking begins, but follows
down .is the milk is drawu out. Prob
ablv the heavier milk sinks to the
bottom of the bag during the twelve
or more hours between milking, and
the heavier milk is the smaller in its
proportion of cream. The first milk is,
however, rich enough for eel ves, if they
have plenty of it; but it is better to
milk it separately than to let the calf
suck. The latter process tends to di
minish the ftow of milk, especially if
the sucking is at irregular intervals.
If a cow were milked clean every six
hours through the twenty-four, both
the yield and tjie richness of the milk
would be increased. While the milk
is in the bag some of its fat is absorb
ed and goes to the cow. And to make
the milk originally, som? fat is taken
from the cow. Hence, if a cow were
milked every one or two hours, she
would lose flesh, no mutter how highly
fed. She would be constantly giving
out fat to make milk, which would be
taken nearlv as soon as made.
Parable
for Fathers.
We are indebted only in part to an
exchange for the following dialogue.
An appropriate ending would be the
words with which the great Teacher
often concluded his parables: kk He
that hath ears to hear let him hear."
Mother. Our boy is out late nights,
and I am afraid he spends his time in
the saloon.
Father.--Well, then, we must tux
the saloon fifty dollars.
Mother. Husband, I believe John is
contracting the habit of drinking.
Father. Well, if that is the case,
we must put up the tax to one hundred
dollars.
Mother. Oh, my Gjd! my boy has
just come home drunk.
Father. Well! well! we must make
the tax on saloons not less than three
hundred dollars.
Mother. 0 husband! just think of
it, our dear bry, William, is in jail for
being drunk.
Father. I'll fix those saloons. They
shall be taxed four hundred dollars.
Mother. Our once noble boy is a
wreck.
Father. Now I'll stop Vm; make
the tax six hundred dollars.
Mather. Alas! we must carry our
poor boy to a drunkard's grave to-day.
Father. Well, I declare! we mast
regulate this traffic; we ought to have
made that tax not les than a thousand
dollars.
New England Farms Deserted.
ALL THE FARMERS. SONS MAKING THEM
HOMES IN THE CITIES.
Mourn over it as we nfay, it is never
theless true that there are many de
serted farms to-day in New England,
and many more that are likely to le
abandoned in the near future, says the
Congregationah'st. It is equally true
that farms remote from large towns or
cities have been steadily decreasing in
vaiue tor several years past. There
may be a difference of opinion as to
the causes which have tended to pro
duce this unfortmiute state of things,
as well as the belwav. if there be one.
to counteract the evil.
No one who goes about the country
towns remote from lame r-pntHr on'n
fail to observe that manv farms es
pecially on the hills which in former
times were co.is.dered valuable, and
on which several generations lived and
prospered, are now left to grow up
again to forest. In many cases all the
young men and women have left for
cities and it is only a question of time
and that not very long when the
old folks, now well advanced in life,
will be gathered to their fathers, and
then in a few years the old farru is no
onger to be cultivated.
To Tell the Age of Cattle?
A heifer has no rings on her horns
until she is two years of age, and one is
added each year thereafter. You can,
therefore, tell the age of a cow with
tolerable accuracy by counting the
rings on her horns and adding 2 to the
number. The bull has no rings, as a
rule, until he is five years .ld. To tell
his age after that period, add five to
the number of rings. The best way
to tell the age is by the teeth, which is,
of course, the only way with pulled
cattle. What are called the milk
teeth gradually disappear in front. At
the end of three years, the second pajr
of : er.nanent teltk are well grown,
at four years the third pair, and at five
the fourth aod last pair have appeared,
and at .this time, the central puir are
full size. At seven years the dark line,
eaused by the wearing of the teeth,
appears on all of them, and on the
central pair a circular mark. At eight
3Tears this circular mark appears on all
of them, and at nine years the central
pair begins to shrink, and the third at
eleven. After this period the age can
only be determined by the degree of
shrinkage generally., At fifteen years
the teeth are nearlv all none. O. JT

CRYING FOft THE MOON.
('me to All of V.
Tber5 is no us;i in denying it it la
folly we must &U plead jrnilty to. and
whieh We eammtt all Ouf lives long
twei-e or les. As chiMreH it was tho
aetual cSooa We wanted the pale,
silver cr-wsejnt, or the rolJea harvest
moon that we e-mki nee shining so far
bove us in the ojear sky Jrom our
auraery window So far above isl
Tea; that is. after all, ths grand se 'iet
of mo -t of our wished in child hoo 1. at
well as ia lat?r years. What' we desire
is so far off, S3 difficult of attainment.
As yoars pass by and we g?oW older,
though Very oftea: not wiser, it is no
longer the mooa itself wa want as a
plaything; we are c jatent by that time
to see it in its proper place, shining
placidly above,, and oar weadering
fancy leads us in a raving search after
will-o'the wisps aid newer lights.
Sofiaetimes oho hears of a man wasting
his whole life in this restless craving
for some object totally out of his reach,
Openings of success are given him,
honors, chances of distinguishing him
self lie before him. He has only to
stretch out his hand and take them,
but ho p.i3J3i the n carelessly by,
perhaps beeauso ttiey are so accessible,
and fixes his eyes and longings on an
impossibility. He tread i ruthlessly
under foot the rol ross of life which
grow about his path as ha hurries by
in his eager search for a blue rose. He
is a mm of one idea, and that a foolish
one, and the wiil-o'-the-wisp that ho
follows leads him over marshy ground
and into many daggers; som3tim3?, it
may be, to his own destruction. Why
is it, I wonder, that this longing for
the unattainable is so strongly im
planted in our nature? And is thero
not, perhaps, greater pleasure really
in the pursuit, than there would be even
in the possession of the desired object
itself? Might it not happan that the
blue roses would v.'ither at a touch,
and the mueh-covetcd golden fruit turn
todustand ashes, like the apples of tho
Dead Sea? How seldom one comes
across a parson who is perfectly con
tented with his lot in life, who has ab
solutely no crumpled rose leaf to dis
tnrb his rest.
Sometimes oar moon is riche3, some
times fame and honor, and there have
been known cases of men eating their
hearts out for a lore that could never
be theirs and wasting their time and
energy in tho mocking light of eyes
whose brilliancy was not for them.
Every one's individual ease is different,
but the fact remains the same. Wo all
want something we ha ve not got; wheth
er wo should appreciate it if it were
ours is another question and, as a rule,
one not often proved. It is man's na
ture to wish most ardently for that
which baffles his pursuit and the more
obstacle.; there are in the way so much
the better, lie will pass by the modesl
wiki flower to seek the raro exotic
whose beauty is perhaps intrinsically
less, but whose kind is rarer.
It m ist bo a sad thought at the end
of a waste 1 life to look back-on all the
long years misspent in a vain craving
for som ithiug unattainable, and to
think of the many tangible blessing
we have le.'t unheeded aa things ol
small account.
It is of iv) uso then to recall the lors
and the might have been, and in that
eica:-or light which wiil come to us all
then, we shall seibut plainly the insig
nificance and folly ot our dreams. It
will seem so foolish then to have spent
our lives in pursuit of a shadow wh'c'i
always eluded our grasp, ard thos:
wasted years will never, never return
to us. From the summit of the steen
hill we have climbed we can see, ero
we feebly totter down the other side.
6ur children in the golden haze of the
valley below setting oft wilh buoyant
hearts on the same journey, only tc
meet with the same disappointment as
we have. And yet, if we try to im
press this on them, does it make them
any the wiser in their turn? It may b
folly, and no doubt it is so; but it is a
folly mankind will continue to cling to.
in spite of precepts and counsels, and
happy indeed are those few rare ex
ceptions who obtain their heart's desire.

of Norwegian.
1 like the Norwegian.?. All traveler
here declare them perfectly honest. I
certainly have not seen the slightest
disposition on the part of any one of
them to deceive or cheat, and if trust
fulness is an evidence of honesty these
people are wondcrrully so. They have
huge keys to their storehouses and
granaries keys big enough to brain a
man with! They are nearly always in
the keyhole or hanging somevhero
within reach of one feloniously inclined.
At wayside stations curiosities some
times of small silverware are exposed
in the public room, where any one can
easily carry them off. The cigars are
in open boxes for the traveler to help
himself from, with the expectation that
he will honestly account for any he has
taken. Farm-houses are left open when
the whole family goes off to the ?.noun
tain to cut hay, and in some unfre
quented localities the waarer goes
tu, builds a fire and cooks a meal; goes
to the store-room, helps himself to milk
and "fiat broed," and leaves on the ta
ble money enough to pay for what he
has used. Frequently a post-boy (he is
sometimes a man and not infrequently
a girl or woman) haslaken what I have
paid for his dues, putting it into his
pocket without counting. He slways,
however, sees what you give him as a
gratuity, and shakes you by the hand
when de says "tak"' (thanks). Iguve
a servant-girl too much for our dinner.
She was much amused, when she fol
lowed me, that I should have made
such a blunder. At wayside stations
they charge ridiculously lowprices,
and as far as I ean learn make no dis
tinction in making eharges to foreigr
ers and home people. Curler H. Har

a dark night last month. He was rid
