' According to modern Jewish law it is
necessary that a weddirg ring should
be of a certe'n value, and it is therefore

ring is returned, to him, and lie places
it on the bride's finger, calling atten
lion to the fact that she is by these

Tne excrements of domestic poultry
are the most highly contentrated of any
on the larm, anu are computed as oe-
ing half the worth of guano. The in
gredients are nearly the same as the
urate, or the dried urine of animals,
since the urine oi lowis is voided in a
solid form with the other matters eject
ed from the bowels. The - value, as a
manure, depends upon the food that is
consumed. If fed on meat, blood and
Gsh, the dung might be equal to guano
as a fertilizer; if on vegetable food, the
manure is less valuable.
A queer case came before a French
court not long ago. A peasant had
agreed to pay live hundred francs for a
cow, and had placed on a bench twenty
20-franc coins, and a 100-franc bill,
when the cow made a snatch a the lat
ter and swallowed it. The question
arose, who was the rightful loser, and
the jndge decided that the buyer, who
had held the cow by the halter when it
devoured the bill, had not taken proper
precautions and must pay over again.
Many Instances are given of cattle
disease being carried from farm to
farm by rats. After devouring any
possible remains of the diseased cattle
after slaughter, they are known to de
sert the stricken farm in a body for
another, where there is at the time an
abundance of food. Is it not reasona
ble to suppose they would carry the
contagion with them, and thus mtro
duce them into perfectly healthy sheds.
Oood clean food, and clean surround

nothing better than to give poultry free
range in the open air.

Typographical Crime. ,
If one book must be singled out and
doomed never to receive decent typo
graphical treatment, says Rossiter
Johnson, it should have been any other,
rather than the Bible. I should like to
see what would be the effect of giving
it a fair chance. I believe It would be
read if it were made readable. We
ought to have one edition of it without
marginal references aud without foot
notesunless in the rare cases where
these are absolutely necessary. Where
the italicised words are necessary to a
complete and idiomatic rendering they
should be printed in plain Roman:
where not thus necessary, they should
be dropped. - Instead of verses we
should have paragraph, and all figures
or other indications of the verses abol
ished. Conversation should be printed
in broken paragraphs, with quotation
marks, just as in a novel. Poetry
should be printed as poetry. Instead
of being crowded into one volume, the
book shouid be in four or five moderate
duodecimo volumes, with large type
and good paper, so that it could be at
once held without tiring the arm and
read without straining the eyes. Fi
nally, this book should have a good ana
lytical index. A cumbrous concordance
is not an index, and does not serve the
purpose of one. If presented in such a
form, the Bible might be enjoyed as lit
erature and perhaps better understood
as a divine authority.
Pine Apple Leaves.
At Singapore, in the East Indies
there Is quite a thrifty branch of busi
ness in preparing the fibres of pine ap
ple leaves for exportation to China,
where they are manufactured Into cloth.
The process of extracting and bleaching
the fibres is exceedingly simple. The
first step is to remove the fleshy or suc
culent side of the leaf. A Chinese,
astride on a narrow stool, extends on it
in front of him a pine apple leaf, one
end of which is kept firm, being packed
beneath a small bundle of cloth on
which he sits. He then, with a kind of
two-haudled plane of bamboo, removes
the succulent matter. Another man re
ceives the leaves as they are planed, and
with his thumb nail loosens and gath
ers the fibres about the middle of the
leaf, which enables him by one effort to
detach the whole of them from the
outer skin. The fibres are next steeped
in water for some time, after which
they are washed in order to free them
from the matter that still adheres and
binds them together. Ihey are now
laid out to dry and bleach on rude
frames of split bamboc. The process
of steeping, waslung and exposing to
the sun is repeated for some days until
the fibres are considered to bo properly
bleached. .Without further preparation
they are rent into town for exportation
to China. Nearly all tho islands near
Singapore are more or less planted with
pine apples, which, at a rough estimate,
cover au extent of two lhous:uid acres
A Bird Combat.
That trim, gentle-looking, drab-colored
bird, erroneously called turtle
dove by dwellers in the United States,
und generally deemed so utterly inno
eent and pure that to kill it for the ta
ble or any other use is branded as hein
ous In the extreme, is not so innocent
after all. Its moaaing, sad-sounding,
voice is a mockery and a cheat. Its
soft dark eyes aire a sham; its sober
Quaker garb is calculated to deceive;
its timid movements are not to be trust
ed. When it has once been insulted or
injured by one of its kind, the dove be
comes as cruel and outrageously heart
less as any murderer can be. Some
years ago I witnessed a fight between
two female moaning doves which for
utter barbarousness could not be ex
ceeded. I was angling iu a brook for
sun-perch, half-prone on a glassy bank
lost in a brown study, with a cigar be
tween my lips, wheu I happened to see
a dove alight on a gnarled bough of a
plane tree a few yard distant. Imme
diately it began to coo in that dolefully
plaintive strain so well known to every
lorer of Nature, aud was soon joined
by a male, who perched himself within
a foot or two of her. 1 espied their
nest, not yet finished, iu tho fork of an
Iron-wood near by. The birds made
very expressive signs to each other with
their heads by a series of bows, and
sidewise motions, of which I under
stood enough to know that some intru
der was near perhaps they meant me.
Tho fish were not biting any too well, !
but the shade was pleasant and the
grass fragrant, the sound of the water
very soothing, and the flow of the wind
steady and cooling, so I did not care to
move just to humor the whim of a pair
of billing doves. It proved, however,
after all, that I was not the cause of
alarm. Another female dove present
ly dropped like a hawk from a dark,
dense mass of leaves above the pair,
and struck the first on the back with
beak and wings. A fight ensued, wit
nessed with calm interest by myself and
the male dove. . ' '
At first the combatants struggled
desperately together on the bough,
fiercely beating each other with their
wings, and plucking out the feathers
from breast and neck, all the time ut
tering low, querulous notes ITering
fr m anything I had ever befoi jeard.
Pretty soon they fell off Ihe bough, and
came whirling down upon the ground,
where they continued tho battle with
c nstanliy increasing lury, tiuir eyes
fairly flashing fire, and cutting and
thrusting with their beaks like swords
men. Blood began to show itself about
their heads, and in p'aces their necks
were quite bare of feathers. When at
last one of them became so exhausted
that further struggle was impossible,
the other proc!eled to take its stand
upon its help"kss opponent, and would
have quickly made an end of it had I
not interfered. The vanquished bird
wts minus an eye, and was unable lo
fly for some minutes. The secret of
the battle w:is jealousy. The male sat
by ami wa'ched in a nonchalant way
until it was all over, when Le very lov
ingly strutted upt the victorious dove
and began cooing iu a low soothing
lone. From that day to this I have re
pudiated the figure "inuoceiit

How to Learn to Swim.
Every boy and girl should learn to
swim. A writer in the American Agri
culturist offors tho following sugges
tions, by obedience to which the art of
swimming may be readily acquired:
When I was a boy, I learned to swim
by means of a swimming-board. This
is the safest method possible. If corks
are used, they may slip from around the
breast down beneath the body, throw
ing the head below the surface, and
putting the wearer in danger of drown
ing. Some country boys get two bladders
and then tie them together with a short
cord, and use these as supports. They
are the most dangerous things possible
for a boy to have.
The board is perfectly safe, and one
may learn to swim in a very short time
by using one. It should be over four
feet long, over a foot wide, and two
inches thick, made of soft white pine or
cedar. , '
To use it, a boy wades into the water
up to his shoulders, then, taking hold
of the end of the board, he pushes it
before him towards the bank, and not
Into deeper water springs forward with
his feet, and throws himself flat upon
the water.
This movement carries him along a
few feet. lie then draws up both his
legs at the same time, keeping the kneis
as far apart as possible, and then strikes
out with both feet, not straight back
ward, but sideways, just as a frog does.
me strode is maae slowly, and is re
peated again, drawing up the legs slow
ly and steadily. The board keeps the
head above water. W'hen the leg stroke
has been learned, one hand is taken
from the board and the stroke learned,
or the chin may be rested on the board.
while the stroke is taken with both
hauds.
This is a very good plan, as it com
pels the swimmer to keep his liauds
under the water, which he should al
ways do. By-and by, the board may be
pushed ahead, and the young swimmer
may swim after it, always keeping it
within reach. When a number of boys
go to swim, they should always have
two or three of these boards with thera
for use in case of any accident.
The Oldest Meat iu the World.
An account in a Russian paper of re
cent explorations in Siberia relates that
one or the travelers, while proceeding
along an e6tuary of the river Lena,
found a pack of wolves devouring the
frozen flesh of a mammoth which had
been exposed by the breaking away of
a cliff, and was apparently in a perfect
state of preservation. This is probably
