Th Final Prank on Hollldos Hill
Was In a Fair Way of Ending In a
Tragedy When the Danger Was, by a
Bit of Good Luck, Narrowly Averted.
; Writing on "Mark Twain" In Har
per's Magazine. Albert Bigelow Paine
reeotinttf . some of tilt? scrapes of the
youthful Sum Clemens. Sam was n
recognized. ringleader among bis piny
mates, and one of the ''pranks 'they
played nearly had a fatal termination.
"One of their Sunday pnstlnics wns
to . climb Holllday's hill and roll do.wn
big; stones to frighten tlie people who
were. driving to church. Holllday's
hill pbpve the road was steep. A stone,
once started, would go plunging and
leaping down and. bound across the
road with the deadly, swiftness of .n
twelve lncb shell. , The boys would get
a stone poised,. the,n wait until, they
saw a .team approaching and, calcu
lating the distance, would give it ' a
start. Dropping down behind the bush'
es, they' would watch" the dramatic ef
feet upon tlie churchgoers ns the great
missile shot across, the,, road, a -few
yards befpre them,, , , ; -. ..
. VThls was Homeric sport, but they
carried it too far. Stones that had a
habit of getting loose so numerously
on Sundays and so rarely on other
days Invited suspicion, and the 'pat
terollera' river patrol, a kind of police
of those days were put on the watch.
So the boys found other diversions un
til the patterollers did not watch any
more. " Then they planned it grand
coup that should eclipse anything be

FRESH
BONE FOR HENS.

For Poultry..
Hens reimlre lime to make eccshells.
and, while there is a small' amount of
lime In the composition of all grain, it
Is not there in' sufficient quantity to
make the shells needed to cover the
eggs. Something., therefore, must be
given the hens to make eggshells. This
Is frequently, furnished in the shape of
lime or old ' plaster' or oyster shells,
put even with these accessories betis
frequently lay- egg's with soft shells;
This Is because there is still something
lacking in - order to make the .shells
hard. Green bono fed to hens supplies
this Inck. The mineral mutter fed to
chickens In bones is also yalunole in
