In the city of Newton, beside an old-fashioned country house, stands a ( large willow tree. vLong years ago - it drooped ' over the barnyard bars, and. cast its shadow on the -quiet cattle as th-ey waited , patiently for the milkmaid. 5 : " One evening a young girl sat In ' that barnyard milkin?. ' The sun was setting, and its last r .ys touched her dimpled arms, - the gold of her hair, and the stream that fell with a musi cal tinkle into her tin pail. She was singing a merry tune in time with the dropping of the milk, and her white haBds looked as graceful as those of any girl who plays th6 piano nowa days. . . ; t ;. ... So at least thought the young man who had stolen up to the bars and stood regarling the unconscious f- singer admirinly. ... "Are you charming the birds and beasts with your music?" he said at length. ; was rendered speechless by it myself. " ! Molly start .d, and the color flashed over her fa"e.-- "In which division do you class yourself?" she asked, saucily. N , ; ; ; He laughed: 'I cerUinly am not a bird," he said, "and I hope I am ; not a beast" . " John paused by the bars, and stooping, plaotd a willow wand he held in his hand in the ground. "J.M8 win maice a shale lor you some day, Molly, and I will love you as long as it lives." 7 "It will be dead by to-morrow night," Molly replied, teasingly. "Nay, you can keep it alive if you Will." , . -. -V; r v She remembered the words and their double significance long after A few days afer tM. b r lover told ber that he Lad enlisted in the army, :. and that in one more week he would go away. Molly bore .the news brave ly, but her heart seemed like lead in her bosom. And when the day came ' that took him from her, sue flung .. herself down, by the willow ' and sobbed out txtv grief alone. Letters were not plenty in those days, so the lovers seldom hoard from each other. ; Molly spoke in f every letter of Cousin Harry and how kind be was to her. Indeed, it seemed to John that the two spent most of the time together. So after , a little John began to i her let ters with a frown and to brood over them in secret. After a few months a furlough was fronted John, and he 'started joy fully homeward. - Molly, Molly? Molly! Ihe name kept ringing in his cars.' lie would see her soon. How long the way socned! When he reached the neighboring town he fell in with an acquaintance who was very glad to see him, and the two men set out fr n the inn where John had stopped to rest. As they , walked along his companion told John all the hoo' news, and just before they ' parted he said "You did well to 'come home and look after your sweetheart. Her handsome cousin is consoling her . only too we in your absence." Ihe words were spoken merely to tease John, but to his jealous soul they were "confirmation sure." He muttered an unintelligible reply and strode away. What if her cousin had stolen her heart away. She was all he had in ine wona to love: bis "one ewe lamb." Walking slowly along, buried in thought, he became aware of voices and the sound of laughter. Twj persons were coung towards him but they did not yet see him. It was Molly and a very handsome man whom John at , once surmised was "Cousin Harry.'' ; Molly was laughing gaily, her cheeks wore flushed and her eyes sparkling with Iun. John was not more selfish than other men, but it would have been gratifying to him to hha her looking a little pale and thin f jf , his sake. But to see her m hap;- and enjoy ing life so well madu 'i him. lie stood still, ! ins at her. Presently she saw hu 0 .1 sprang forward with a glad e ?. Vlh hands outstretched. There wa no answer ing smile on his face, nor did he move one step towards her. She paused, chilled and frightened. "Why, John!" she cried: "what is the matter?" Hor cousin, in the meantime, see ing that the newcomer was hor lover, had strolled discreetly away. Tou have borne' my absence well!" John said with a sneer. 'Tou look quite contented I" "What do you mean?" asked Molly in perplexity. - "I mean this!" replied her lover, all his fierce anger blazing forth: If you don't promise me never to speak again to that whiskered baboon who was with you, I'm done with you. forever!" Molly's face had grown very white and set "I admire your choice of language," she said quietly. "Your speech is not only elegant but so witty." v - , "Never mind my language" he re plied roughly. "It suits your con duct very well!" "Will you promise me?" Certainly not," replied Molly in a low voice. "My cousin was my play mate and has been a kind friend to me always. I would not be so unjust to him. ' "If you do not promise," he said, "I will never look on your face again!" "As you please," she replied care lessly. After a moment's silence, she drew his ring from her finger and held it out to him, saying, "I do not care for this any longer." He snatched the pretty circlet from her and ground it savagely under his heel, then without a word turned : and st'ode rapidly away Molly watched him with anguished heart All her anger was gone. Ob, why had she been so cruel? Why did she not try to soothe his wrath instead of letting her foolish pride separate them forever? Surely he would not leave her thus! She watched for his coming every day until sne learned that be was gone again without one word for her. And so the days went by, till the war was ended. . The troops cause march ing home with flying colors, but the one whom Molly sought was not there. No one could tell anything about him. His comrades only knew that the.e had been a hard battle and the last they saw of him he was fighting gallantly. Poor Molly made the willow which he had set a monument to weep over as she would have wept over his grave. She had a fence set around it to keep away wandering cattle, and she tended it carefully. She made no parade of her grief, but often in the midnight hours she woke with the sick, despairing feeuing of loss and pain. Woman like, she forgave her lover for his part of the quarrel and blamed only herself. All his goodness, every generous act, - every tender word, was remembered, She never thought that he might have been more patient with her girlish pride and folly: "He loved me and I wounded him! He had no mother or sister; only me, and I sent him away with bitterness in his heart" Over and over she said these words to herself amid her sobs. , i',.'..-' :.-.'.,a. ";"' K'i , So five long years went by. Molly was outwardly but little, changed, save that her laugh was not so merry nor her step so light as of yore. But her hand was gentler and her heart kinder for the trouble she had known. " Her cousin had married and lived near her. He and his wife were go ing to Euro" and they urged Molly to go with them. "It will do you good," her cousin said. "You will have something to think of all the rest of your life." , At length she yielded, and the three set sail one morning for foreign shores. She took a bit of the willow with her and kept it in water all the voyage. : One day the party stopped at a house In a little German hamlet. They were to remain there a few days and to visit some noted places. When dinner was over the hostess said to Molly: "There is an American gentle man in the next house quite 111." Molly was interested at once. ' Do you think I might visit him," she asked. ..."' - - " I am sure Frau Gottlieb will be glad if you will, for the poor man seems to have no friends," replied her hostess. Molly readily gained consent to see the stranger and stepped softly into his room. He was asleep with one arm thrown above his head. 1 - Molly's heart gaze a great bound as she saw him, for pale and wasted as he was she recognized her lover. She hurried out of the room, faint with contending emotions. How would he receive her? Was he still angry with her, or would the shock of her presence be too much for his strength? How should she make herself Known? Ah! she knew how she could send him a message. She ran up to her , room and took the bit of willow in her hand. Trembling with excite- native huts. The only fuel on tne lsi ment, she gave it to Frau Gottlieb. and ,B ft Bcant uPPly of driftwood. "Put it on the gentleman's pillow,"! she said, "right where he will see it when he wakes!" , v t " The sick man awoke and turned wearily on his pillow. His eye caught sv?ht of the willow. He seized it w nderingly. ' "Oh, can Molly have put it there?" 4 Ihe next moment he chided him self for the foolish thought . Yet he asked Frau Gottlieb eagerly if she put it there. . "Yes," she replied. "Thank you," he, said, turning languidly away. "The American lady told me to do so," said the woman. John started up. "Where is she?" he said. Next door. Do you wish to see her?" "Oh, yes! at once." -Molly obeyed the summons immedi ately and found herself in the pres ence of her lover. "John," she called softly, and going forward she knelt by his bedside. He laid his hand on her hair, sav ing: "Molly, docs the bit of willow mean that you are true after all!" "Yes, John, she whispered. The next day mutual explanations were made, and John told Molly how after the battle that day he had been found severely wounded and had been nursed through a long illness by strangers who did not even know his name. Then, heartsick and dis couraged, the war being over, he had gone to Lurope and had wandered about till he fell ill. Happy days followed when Molly nursed her lover back to health. When he was strong enough, thoy went home together. The next day after their arrival they visited the willow, now grown to a large tree. "iou see. John, I did not let the twig die," said Mollys "God bless the willow!" he replied reverently. He stooped and kissed her just as the last rays of the setting sun shone over the earth, glorifying it even as their lives were glorified by the en chanter love American Cultivator.

Two Men Await Their Victim In Har- . row Lane The Murderers Immediately , IFlee Physicians Give It as Their Opinion that Labori Will Die of His Wonnd. RENNES, Aug. 14. T'o men am bushed Maltre Labori, counsel for Dreyfus, and one shot was fired, hit ting Labori in the back. M. Labori tell in the roadway. He is still alive. Maltre Labori left his house alone tor the court about 6 o'clock yesterday morning. His residence is situated In the suburbs of the town, about a quar ter of an hour s walk from the Lycee the route being along a solitary road beside the river Vilslne. He had reached a point half way on his Journey when two men who had evidently been lying in wait for him rushed out of a narrow lane and one of them fired a single shot from a re volver. The murderers were only couple of yards behind the Victim and the bullet struck Maltre Labori in the back. The wounded man uttered an agonized cry and fell flat on his face The . murderers immediately fled through the lane from where they had emerged and both escaped. It was announced that the bullet had entered the stomach. There was no outward bleeding and the physi clans believe that M. Labori will die from the wound. ' A later story has it that M. Labori was shot in the temple by a man who fired a revolver at him outside the court, and that the miscreant was ar rested. THE EIRST NEBRASKA. Trooos Celebrate the Fall of Manila .

At the banquet the Argentine minister, Senor Porela, toasted "The Eternal Union of Argentina and Brazil." HOT! The Striped Cncumber Beetle. F. H. Hall of the Geneva, N. Y., Ex perlment Station say:r rotsons can be used with success against these beetles for only a short time in the spring, when they begin to feed; and again, in the fall, against beetles of the new.i)rood.. This fall poisoning will succeed only where mere is not an abundance of wild fall flowers; for the beetles will desert any poisoned crop for the unpolsoned flow ers and will feed upon the flowers to a considerable extent, any how, if they are to be found. Many poisons were tested upon the cucumber fields of Long Island, during 1897 and 1898, in cluding1 Paris green, laurel green, green arsenlte (arsenite of copper) and lead arsenlte. These were applied dry, in water, in Bordeaux mixture, , and in resin-lime mixture, alone; and In vari ous combinations. Green arsenite, dry, gave best results. It was found a waste of the poisons to apply them In Bordeaux mixture, as the mixture so repelled the Insects that they would not eat the sprayed vines to secure the poison. These poisons, applied , in water, are liable to burn or stunt the plants. It Is necessary, then, if we wish to poison the beetles, to use a trap crop to attract the Insects and to apply the poi3on to this crop instead of to the plants we design to protect. On small areas it may be advisable to shut In the small plants of the growing crop by the well-known cloth topped boxes; by the tent-like cloth covers spread over arched hoops or wires; by boxes made from a rectangu lar piece of cloth and two -short G-lnc'i boards with cleats attached to 'insert In the soil and hold the boards up right; or even 6-lnch wire plate- covers. Covers, however, are too ex pensive on large areas and they have the disadvantage of frequently mak ing the plants weak so that winds will snap them off or twist and ruin them when the covers have to be removed. If covers are used alone their removal leaves the .unprotected vines not only for feeding places but for breeding places for the beetles. . Bordeaux mixture, If thoroughly and frequently applied makes as efficient protection as the covers, is much cheaper and at the same time protects the plants from diseases. This mix ture (1-to-ll formula) should be spray ed upon the cucumbers when they are just, well up, again when they show the third leaf and the third time just before the plants commence to form runners. The early application can probably best be made with a knap sack sprayer and later ones by any good pump sprayer. The three appli cations should not cost $2 per acre. The Bordeaux mixture is a much better repellant, according to station tests, than kerosene, turpentine, to bacco dust, cow-manure, burdock in fusion, Blug shot, bug death or any other known compound. Indeed, all materials of this class, supposed to drive away the beetles by their dls- j tasteful odor, proved failures when used alone. Air slaked lime, dusted over the vines, will make them un palatable to the beetles, but the lime is liable to stunt the plantsf It may ne used, with care, by those whose crop is not large enough to warrant purchase of spraying outfit , All of these appliances or aonllca- uou, covers, Bordeaux mixture or lime, merely protecf the young plants until they are strong enough to stand the injury from the beetles; they do not kill the Insects. To do this, trap crops are needed. As the squash is the beetle's favorite food plant, this vegetable should be planted in single rows along the margins - of small patches, in several rows around large ueias about four days before the cu cumbers or melon seeds are sown When these trap plants are up and the beetles appear about them duet about half the plants with green arsenlte. re serving the other half for "use If fain or heavy dew makes the poison soluble and kills the vines first treated, The beetles, attracted by their favorite tid bit will feed upon the squash vines and be poisoned by the arsenlte. ' When the cucumbers or melons are up, un less they are protected by covers, spray wua Bordeaux, ana poison more of the squash vines. When the beetles com mence to pair the squashes may be cultivated up, leaving only a few vines for the beetles to feed upon at flower ing time, as the Insects prefer the squash flowers and will not molest the others. Beans may be used with some suc cess as a fall catch crop, where wild flowers are not too plentiful. They should be planted on the cucumber or melon fields; and when the beetles leave the old vines to feed upon the fresh bean plants, they should be treat ed to liberal doses of poison as well. F. II.

Before the factory system of butter- making became general in New South Wales, it was usual to arrange matters so that the calves were dropped late In winter, In order that the cows might obtain the full benefit of the early spring grass, says the Australasian. Tht general calving period has not b- 1 departed from to any great ex- t even under the altered conditions ol alrylng. As a rule the majority of the cows are still timed to "come In" during the months of August and Sep tember, some 01 our dairymen, how ever, where the factory system Is es tablished,! are arranging to have t greater number of calves arrive in the autumn, about April and May. At that period a large proportion of the cows are nearly dry, and, as a consequence, many of the factories are worked at a loss, or closed altogether, for lack of milk supply. Butter . then becomes scarce and dear, and none being avail able for export tho London trade is disorganized, greatly to the dlsadvan tage of the producers. It seems clearly evident that by regulating the calving season, having half of the cows fresh in autumn, and the other half fresh in spring, farmers would make , more money In the aggregate, and the worl at the farms and factories would also be steadier, Instead of there being, as at present, a rush at one season and stagnation at another. ' It is perhaps true that the spring Is the best season for exporting butter, but against that advantage there is the fact that, late In summer and all through winter, butter usually brings a higher price in Sydney than : in London. There la something radically wrong In the sys tem of management pursued, when, during one-halt of the year, we export largely, while at another we Import butter and pay higher prices for it Regulating the calving season, and providing the cows with extra food when grass is scarce would remove that anomaly, and yield more profit to producers In the long run. The ex port of butter must In fact be, main tained steadily all the year round, if the industry is to be permanently pros perous. Erratic shipments are greatly complained about In London, but the dairymen of New South Wales, par ticularly on the Clarence and Rich mond Rivers, are gradually altering their management In the direction in dicated, and they hope soon to be able to regulate their butter output to a nicety every week in the year. , The Canso of Bopjf Milk. Bacteriologists now tell us, says the London Farmer, that the ropy condi tion sometimes assumed by milk or cream when "set" for ripening Is due to the development therein of a certain form of bacterium a near relative of the organism (Bacterium lactls) which Is known to cause the souring or ripen ing of creamv Under ordinary condi tions the bacterium which causes the souring of cream so rapidly develops, and so pronouncedly asserts itself that none of the many other ; organisms which are known to be ' capable of thriving in milk are given the oppor tunity of making their Influence felt;' but when, from any cause such as the presence of dirt, etc. the other or ganisms are afforded the necessary fa cilities for development, they also soon begin to assert themselves, and In this way produce one or other of the many conditions which are known to affect injuriously the churnabillty of milk and cream. Heretofore the explana tion usually given for the ropiness of milk was that it was due to the ill health of the cows., May It not be, that, after all. this, was quite a correct explanation, for Is It not pos sible that the fact that the milk Is ob tained from cows which are constitu tionally unsound may render such milk all the more susceptible to the attack and more favorable to the de velopment of the organisms which are 'tie immediate cause of the ropiness?
