"Look, Col, what I liuu," she cried
hupplly, holding up her basket. "Theio

and all sorts of nice tilings, Wo may
take it to Mis. (Jrcy's cottage, down by

Colin ran Imloois for bis gloves, and
then tho pair started acrohH the snowy

Madgo walked along sedately, with
her bauds tucked Into bet' iiiutr ami her
basket on her aim, while Colin kept
running otr to chase the birds or follow
the tracks made by rabbits In the snow.
"Col, I wish you'd come bote a min

Mrs. (ircy Is out; there Isn't any smoke
coming from the chimney. Can we got

"Yes, she never locks the door," an
swered Colin, lie lifted the bitch and
they went In.
"Oh, how untidy It Is!" cried Madge.
"Look what that naughty Kittle has
been doing the stocking pulled out,
and the buttons all over tho Hour."
".She's left tho window open, too!"
mid Colin, "and tho tiro's gone out."
"It's tho leaves that have made such
n mess," he said, "I tell you what,
Madge; let's pretend we're fairies, and
get It all ready befoto Mrs. (J ley comes
back."
"The ery thing," said Madge, as shu
put the workbox away. "I'll lay tho
tea while you sweep up ntid light the
the."
Colin was teady, and soon tho tire
was crackling merrily, and the kettle
Madge put on began to slug,
.lust as they lupl llulshed there were
footsteps outside. Madge sprang to Iter
feed
"Let's hide and mh what she says!"
she cried.
They had only Just time to scramble
Into the epphoard, when Mis, Oroy
came In, and nh hhe was surprised!
"Why, deary me. whoever did this!"
she said. "Nobody's been here that I
know of. Il must be the two little fair
ies from the big house!"
"I'm so gl.id yon'io pleased," said
Colin.
"Hut bow did you know who it wasV"
asked Madge,
Mis. tiroy pointed to the basket
which Madge had left behind, and they
all laughed.
Then Mis, tltey kUed them, ami
said:

(let a bead of wild oats and Iny It on
tho table over night, first moistening
the oats. Next morning you will dis
cover that tho head of outs has crawled
off the table nnd likely enough bus
made tracks for 'the outside door. This
peculiar gift of traveling lies In the
spikes that extend from the coverings
of tho grains. As tho moisture soaks
Into (lie head Of oats it swells and the
spikes change position In such u way
as to set the head to tumbling over and
over sldewlse. The larger nnd coarser
varieties of wild oats havo this power
of locomotion devekp to a rem likable
degree, an- even domestic oats will de
velop It If allowed by neglect to de
generate. An Kxiicrlincnt In I'nrlnr Mng'c,
Soak u piece of thread In strong salt
wnt or, dry It, nnd repeat two or threo
limes. When thoroughly dry tie one
end to u chandelier, mid on tho other,
or lower, end tie a ring or some small
but not too heavy article.
It is now teady for the experiment.
.Set lire to the thread, and behold the
ring docs not fnll to the Door nor does
the tircud break.
The explanation Is: The thread hns
In reality been burned, but tho salt with
which the thread was saturated forms
n solid column, mid that 'supports the
ring. Varied experiments can bo made,
using several threads for one article,
ami, In fact, many others which may
suggest themselves to tho readers.

With tho return of normal coudltlous

tho quick transportation of butter from

export of butter from tho same port
rose from l!7n tons In 18US to 7tK) tons

from Northern nnd Kustern Husshi hns

to caitlo raising. Tho passenger nnd
freight rates nro kept by tho govern

the purpose of stimulating trafllc.
Hitherto the export trndo In train

are being produced by the use of fur and

of course, but the idea Is taken from
