Being well nc- quantcd and a practical joker , the ngcut drew up from his pocket a glittering panla button , passed it over with the ticket , and Bcoopcd up the quarter. "Is that n legal tender ? " asked the lady quietly. "Oh , yes , " ho answered with mock jravlty , " they nro Iho mainstay of the re public. " She pocketed it and got aboard , leaving the agent's face coruscating with smiles. A few days after ho told it to a brigade of runners buying tickets for H , nnd while ho was enjoying the encore , the lady appeared with * ' 'Tirket for B , please. " "Twenty-four cents,1' with a sly wink at the runners. Ho laid down the ticket. She scooped it and laid down twenty-four dazzling pants buttons , exactly like the first. "You said they were legal tender.

Every boy , nnd girl too , knows that Eas ter JH the Sunday of eggs fancy eggs. \fo presume that few of them know anything of the origin or cnuso * of this rgg feast , it bclug simply a tradition or custom which has como down from generation on to generation , without uuy explanation whatever. The most characteristic Easter rite , nnd the ono most widely diffused , is the use of 2'asch ( Easter ) Eggs. They nro usually stained of various colors with dye-woods nnd herbs , nnd people mutually make pres ents of them ; sometimes they nro kept ns amulets , sometimes eaten ; games nro also played by atrlkiug them agmnst ono augth- cr. lu Bomo moorland parts of Scotland it used to bo the custom for young pcoplo to go out early on 'Tasch Sunday" mid search for wild fowls'eggs for breakfast , nnd it was thought lucky to find them. There : an ho little doubt that the use of eggs nt this season was originally symbolical of the revivification of nature the springing forth of lify in the Spring. The practice la not confined to Christians ; the Jews used eggs in the feast of the Passover , mid wo nro told that the Persians , when they keep the festival of the solar uow year ( in March ) , mutually present each other with colored eggs. From the Christian point of view this "Feast of Eggs" has been usually consider ed ns emblematic of the resurrection mul of < v future life. The Testimony nt'n I'lijBlciau.

The great drawback to their use is the difficulty of reducing them to sufficient fineness bo that plants may immediately appropriate them , If hone mills were more common nnd the ndultcratlou of the ground bone were less frequent , this excellent fer tilizer would bo more commonly used. Even without bone mills thcro is no use in wasting the bones , if ono lias n garden. AVe have applied them with great profit in several ways. In tree planting they nro utmost Indispensable. They can bo had of Village boys generally for about twcuty- flvo or fifth cents a barrel. They pick them up about the streets , garden ? , daugh ter houses , the remnants of butcher's meat sold to families. This kind of bone is line enough to bo put into borders for grape vines , without nny preparation. A bushel of these bones to a newly planted tree is none too much , nnd ono may safely plant five bushels under n bearing npplo or pear tree , or grape vine. So laigo results will not follow immediately from thcso coursoi pieces ns from the ground article , or from' superphosphates. But thcro will } \o \ in the soil n supply of food for many ; years to come , and the roots will appropriate it ns they have neod. Wo have frequently taken up grape vines planted in this way , and found thb whole mass of bone , once solid , penetrated with line roots. Wo doubt if nny investment in fertilizers pays 'better than in these bones from outchcrs * mint , which nro quito plentiful in all our villages. Another method of using them i ? with the preparation ot the hammer or stone sledge. This requires some expenditure of muscle or of money. The common bones nro tough , nnd require heavy , blows to crush them. Parts will bo crushed quito finonml some will remain in inch pieces. They may by applied to the soil for nil ordinary Drops , especially for turnips , in this partly broken state , with profit. It is still better however , to reduce them to a finer state , by fermentation , in a compost heap , or by treating with wood ashes. If they nro put Into n cask nnd mixed with nltcrnato lay- era of wood ashes , mid kept moist , they will soon go to pieces , and the line mixture will have n large accession of potash nnd bo nindo more valuable and better adapted lo crops that want n good deal of potash. If wood ashes nro not convenient the bones uay bo fermented in n compcst heap with . ; ooct garden soil. Put them into any fer menting mass of vegetable or animal matter and the bones will ndd to the heat and be come very fine. After the fermentation Is over , the whole nmss should bo shovelled > ver , nnd intimately mixed , nnd it may 1)0 ) spread broadest or put in the hilLns n con centrated manure. This way is good enough , though it requires more tlrno than the reduction of bone by sulphuric acid , which costs nfoncy , and requiresmoro care ful handling Wo have used bones in all these methods , with great profit , for thirty years , nnd expect to use them while wo cat the fruit of thogardcu.

Ho went on : "I Invited them to eat some oysters with mo after the trial , nml while wo were nt the table John Whitney consented , hi reply tooururgcncy tomakoaclcnn breast of it about the murder of Morgan. Ho de clared the terrible secret had been n bur den on him day nnd night , nnd tlven ho told who the men were who left the lodge one dark night to put Morgan out of the way , lest ho might reveal the secrets of the order. Ho said ho wns ono of the men. The others were Col. Win. King , Gnrsido , 1 toward nnd Chubboek. They went to the lort , bound the prisoner hand nnd foot , laid him In n boat , cnri led him to about the middle part of the Niagara rher , whcro it was two miles to cither shore , nnd there , tying weights to his head nnd .feet , they flung him overboard. When ho lind told the story Whitney said ho felt relieved. The other witness turned to him nml said : 'John , Weed can hang 3-011 now.1 'Yes,1 said Whitney , 'but ho won't. ' I thought much about my duty to Iho public , but it was obviously impossible to convict him unless ho would say solemuljrju court .what ho had said tojuc. . 3t was ncnily tbiity years nltorwnrd rrbon I met John Whitney in Chicago when I was thereat theComention in l&OO.

This instrument was invented in the year 1302 , by Flavio Giota , n citizen of Amalll in the kingdom of Naples. Al though its use might enable Italians to perfbrin with greater bccurity nnd expedi tion the short voyages to which they were icemtomed , yet- its influence was neither to rapid nor extensive ns to excite a spirit of discovery by rendering navigators more adventurous in exploring the deep. Seamen - men unaccustomed to quit the sight of land dared not launch out ut once , nnd commit themselves to unknown seas. Accordingly , It took nearly half n century nftcr Giota's invention , to secure for it MI eh confidence ns enabled navigators toventure upon strange seas , or beyond such limits as they had besm accustomed to frequent.
