Mr. and Mrs. Nicholls were out at the time and Katie was alone. Just after dusk she heard the dog barking fiercely in the yard and no ticed a preat commotion in the hen houae. She went out to find out what the noise was about. The 'door ol the poultry house was open and through it the girl could just discern some large dark animal crouching in a corner, its eyes shin ing like balls of fire. Katie slammed the door, seized her father's gun and, returning to the poultry yard opened tne door and taking hasty aim at the glowing eyes discharged 'the two barrels in rapid succession. For a few mo ments there was a tremendous floundering, snarling and tumbling inside the fowl house. Finally all was still, and after procuring a Ian tern the gill opened the door and looked in. A dozen of the pet hens lay on the floor dead, and in the corner, with ita fin-ce looking clawa turned upward, waa stretched an ugly look ing wildcat. Juat then Henry Skelton, Katie's sweetheart, came up. She proudly pointed to the animal she had van quished. Gossip has it that as soon as Henry saw the furry mass he made a hasty exit from tre yard, and only returned when the girl assured him the cat was dead. The animal weighed forty-six pounds.

The verdict was not in accordance with the judge's belief and opinion, accord ing to evidence, whtreupon he dis missed eleven of the jurymen from the court, declaring them inenmpe tent.

It was in mind to say, in my 'Animadversions on the Claims of Science," that, if all the books and magazine ariicles which raye been published in tbe name or science were tested according to tiie canon quoted, and all "exagg; ra'ions," "mie8tatements,"and passages reveal ing the mental bias of the authors were stricken out, many of them would appeal- very much ciu;ilated. Another suggestion that the pen was ready to throw off (it ye editor had not limited us to one column) was that, if all our would-be teach, era ot science would restrain tbe quill until they were sure that only the naked infallible truth would flow down, the bulk of the literature that boasts a acientific spirit would be materially diminished, and that which would remain would perhaps be worthy of study. And there waa still another thought a little f urtner up in my pen which, because tbe space was wanting, could not find expression. That little instrument, which is always faithful to ita mas ter, wanted to dash off, with a kind of independent air, something like this : Let all who choose to do so straighten up and promptly swallow down the puddings dished up by the scientific cooks, but as for "Aonota tor" he will wait awhile until he knows what is in the pudding, It may purport to ba made up of tbe choicest and richest fruits of the human intellect but it may turn out to be nothing more than crude speculations eyolved from the brain of the forty-second cousin of some old anthropoid ape. And cow my thought-recorder starts out upon a new paragraph. Watch its movements and obserye what it wr'tes ; for it recorda only what. Annotator dictates. Ready ! What a marvellous change would effected in every sphere of life truth were made the pole-star every heart and the touch-stone of every utterance ! What an immense benefit to public morals, and what an advantage to the cause of good government would it be if those who enter the arena of political combat were always moie concerned to tell the truth than to gain the yictory. And how much better for the cause of true religion if those who wield the lance of theological argument would always do so in perfect fair ness to one another. How much would it contribute to peace and good-will in every community if all were scientific enough, when they speak, to speak only the truth with out "exaggeration" or "misstate ment." AmroTATOB."
