WILLAMETTE FARMER; SALEM, OREGON, JANUARY 2, 184.

THE FIRST SNOW.
Ony bloom the flowers In Springtimo ot,
And streaky apples linger yet
'Twm autumn but a week ago,
Why, thon, tlicao flakes of enow ?
Hummer's last rose thoy disarrayed,
Tlio whilo alio droamed in pcaco to fade,
Ono swallow was inclined to stay ;
The wlilto flecks frightened him away.
Winter's cold shock who first endurn
Think him unkind mid premature;
Complain tho Summer wis too brief,
And morallzo o'er each dead leaf.
Autni ho ((rips with firmer hold
Wn grow tnoro careless of tho cold,
Joy in tho sparklo of Ids snow,
And ncatlo by his flrcaido glow.
Dismayed, wo noto tho first gray hair,
tioon others come wo eeaso to euro ;
Then gray outnumbering tho brown,
And sobii whito winter sottloi down,
An when from youth wo'vo patted to ago
Wo'vo learned our lesson page by page,
To take what cotnoi for weal or woo
And novcr fret about tho snow.
The Llitte Cask-
Mnitro Chicot, tlio innkeeper of Ksnri
villu, pulled iii lim tilbury lioforo tho
Kiito ol ! Mcro MiiKloro'ti farm, lie wns u
grout liulking fellow about forty, red
faced mill iitout, who luul it tolerably
liicun rontilntion.
Ho fastened liis reins to u fcuco post,
and entered tho yard. Ho possessed
soino real ostiile iiiljoiniii,' tho old wo
muti'd land, which ho had long coveted.
Twenty dillbrent limes ho had tried to
buy it from lior; hut IMero Mnglorio
obstinately rcfiiHed.
"I whs born hero, and I'm going to
die hero, too," wan what slionhvnyH mild.
IIo found hor peeling potatoes in front
of lier door. With lier seventy-two
yearn of age, oho was dry, wrinkled,
stooped s but indefatigable lis a young
girl. Chicot patted lior on the back in a
friendly way, and then vat down beside
lier oniiHtool.
"Well, old mother, how is tho health,
always hearty, oh?"
"So-N), and you .Mnitro Chicot?"
"Khl eh I just, u littlo twingo onco in
awhilo ; othcrwito I'm all right enough."
"Aliens! so much tho better."
And hIiu Hiiid nothing more. Chicot
watched her working, lior crooked
lingers, knobby and hard iih tho leg of
a crab, caught up tho gray potatoes
from tho big basket; and she turned
them round and round (prickly, taking
oil' long bauds of iieelings under tho
edge of an old knife which she held in
tho other hand. And us noon as each
potato was all yellow, the threw it into
n bucket of water. Throo impudent
chicken would come ono after tho other
to pick up tho poolings even from tho
folds of her skirt, and thou would run
away as fat as their legs could carry
them, with their booty in their beaks.
Chicot Hcumcd to bo worried, hesitat
ed and iwixious, with something that
clung to tho tip of his touguo and would
not venture to leave it. At hut he mado
a decided elloit.
"Say! Mcro Magloire."
"What can 1 do for you t"
'Well, this farm of yours; you si ill
don't want to fell it?"
"If that's what .sou want no! Never
coino for that here. What I gay, lsay
no use talking about it any more."
'You see, 1'vo thought of an arrange
ment that would bo just tho thing for
both ot us."
"What's that?"
"Seo here you'll roll it to mo, and
thou you'll keep it just as you do now.
Don't, vim Mit whnt I iiu'im? I.inhin.
anil I'll bhow you."
Tho old woman stopped peeling her
potatoes, and tixed on the innkeeper's
face two keen eyes, still very bright
under their crumpled eyelids.
Ho proceeded.
"I want to explain tho thing to you.
I'vory month I'll give you lf0 francs.
You hear mo! every month I'll conio
hero in my tilbury and pay yon down
thirty ecus or 100 sons. And etill there
won't ho any chango in tho world. You'll
just stay iu your nouso ; you'll not huvo
to bother about mo ; you'll not owo mo
anything. All you'll have to do will bo
to take my money. Now, how does that
suit you?"
Then ho looked into her face joyously,
with tho most oodnnttuvd and self
sutisnYd air imaginable.
The old woman gazed at him with
suspicion smelling a snare. She ask
ed: "That is all-very well forme; but how
alwut you? That won't give you the
farm."
Ho went on again to explain :
Don't yon bother your head about
that. You'll stay hero just us long as
the good Hod allows you to live. You'll
always remain hero at homo in your
own lumso. Only you'll sign a littlo
paper at tho notary's, so that it'll come
to mo after you. ou'vo got no children
nobody belonging to you except those
nephews that you don't care anything
aliout. Now, how does that nleaso you?
You'll keep your property (luring your
Avholo life, and I'll pay you down lot)
francs every month. It's all clear profit
for you and no loss."
Tho old woman remained dumb, sur
prised, uneasy, but novertliolcsa visibly
tempted. Fiuollly bIio said :
"I'll not say no. Only I want to rea
son with myself about tho affair. You
como back and we'll talk it over again,
seme timo next week. Then I'll toll you
gust what I think about it."
And Maitro Chicot went ofTns happy
as a king who had just conquered an
emnire.
Mcro Mugloiro remained thoughtful.
Sho did not sloop tho next night. For
four whole days sho was in a fovcr of
hesitation. Sho felt suro there was
something unlucky for horsclf in such
an arrangement, something to her dis
advantage, but tho thought of thirty
ecus a month, of that fine ready cash
that would ho poured into her apron,
that would como to her llko a windfall,
without her making tho least effort to
got it, tortured her with desire.
Then sho wont to tho ' notary, and
told him nil about tho situation. I To
advised her to accept Chicot's proposi
tion, but told hor to ask fify ecus In
stead of thirty, as her farm was worth,
at tho least calculation, 00,000 francs.
"At thin rato ovon," said .tho notnry,
"supposo you live fifteen years more,
ho would still only havo mid you If),
000 francs."
The old woman actually troubled
with oxcitcment at tho prospect of fifty
oous every month; but sho was still very
suspicion, fearful of a thousand things
uuforcccn, of n thousand possible
schemes to ucirnml her; ami sue re
mained for a whole evening asking
questions, unable to decide what to do.
Finally sho told tho notary to prepare
tho deed, and returned homo as excited
an if sho had drunk four whole pots of
cider.
When Chicot eiuno to ask for his
answer, sho made him first coax her for
a long timedeclaring that sho would
not do it, but really tortured by the
fear that ho might refuse to give the
price. Finally, iih ho persisted very
eagerly in his demand, she announced
her tonus.
Chicot jumped with difsupointiiicnt
and refused.
Then iu order to convince him, sho
began to argue about tho probable
duration of her life:
"I'vo got only livo or six yeara moro
to live that's sure. Jloro I am in my
Hovcuty-third year, and not stout at all
for that. 1 thought something waa
tearing my very nisldo out, and they
had to carry mo to bed."
Chicot diden't allow himself to bo
caught.
"1 hat 11 do, you old humbug! you'ro
solid as the 011111011 tower yonro going
to livo tefbo at least 110 years old. I'm
certain you'll livo to bury mo anyhow."
Tho whole day was spent iu discus
sion. Hut as the old woman would not
yield an inch, tho inu-kecper at last
agreed to pay the fifty ecuti a mouth.
They signed tho act next day. And
.Mcro Mnglorio further exacted fifty
francs' worth of wino.
Three yearn went by. The good wo
man remained miriuiilously well. .Sho
did not seem to have become one day
older, and Chicot waa iu despair. It
seemed to him that ho had been paying
her petition for at least half a century
that ho had boon tricked, swindled,
mined. From timo to timo ho paid tho
old woman a visit, just as iu July ono
goes to look at tho ileitis to seo if tho
grass is ready for tho scythe. Sho always
received him with a malicious twinkle
iu her eye. It looked as if sho was de
lighted with tho lino trick sho had play
ed him ; and ho would climb back into
his tilbury muttering to himself:
"Not dead yet, eh, old carcass?"
He did not know what to do. Kvory
time ho looked at her ho wanted to
stmnglo her. He hated her with a fer
ocious, cunning hatred with tho ha
tred of the peasant who is robbed.
o he began to scheme.
So he mine to her at Inst ono day rub
bing his bauds together, just as ho had
done tho first timo he proposed the bar
gain. And, after a few minutes' chat, ho
said:
"j?ny, Mere Maglorie, why don't you
ever como to dinner at my house when
you pass through Ksnrovillo? Folks aro
gossiping about us ; thoy say wo are not
friends, ami that's worryinc me. I don't
want you to pay anything at my house,
you know ; 1 don't euro about the cost of
a dinner. So just xino as often as you
feel like it como and niuko yourself feel
at home. It'll bo quite a favor to me."
Mere Magloiro did not wait to bo ask
ed twice, and two days after, on her way
to market in her old cart, driven by her
groom Colestin, sho quietly ordered her
horse to bo unhitched and taken to
Maitro Chicot's stables, and went into
tho house and demanded tho promised
dinner.
Tho innkeeper, radiant with delight,
served hero with chicken, pudding,
ehatterlings, mutton with caper sauce.
Hut she ate scarcely anything temper
ate as fho had been from her childhood
accustomed to no richer faro than a
crust of buttered broad and a littlo soup.
Chicot, much disappointed, coaxal
her in vain. Neither would sho drink, sho
refused to take any collee.
He asked:
"Well, I'm suro you'll take a littlo
glass of lino liquor, anyhow?"
"Ah, that! yes. I'll not say no to that."
And ho roared with all tho forco of his
limp through the inn :
"llosalie, bring mo tho fine, tho supor
tluc, the lil en dix."
Tlio servant appeared with a long
necked bottlo ornamented with a paper
vino leaf pasted thereon.
Ho filled two tiny glasses.
Try that, old mother, and too if it
isn't just famous!" ,
And tho good woman began to sip it
very slowly, very fastidiously, making
tho pleasure onduro as long as possible.
When she got to tho bottom, sho turned
tho glass up to pour tho very last drop
down her throat, and said :
"That is lino!"
Sho had no sooner said it than Chicot
poured out another glassful for her.
She wanted to refuse, but it was too late.
and sho sipped it nil up, vofy slowly, ns
sue had dono tho lirst time.
Then ho tried to got hor to swallow a
third, hut sho resisted. Ho persisted:
"Why, Hint's milk, I tell you! that's
cream. I tako ten and twclvo glasses
without fooling any tho worse That
goes down just liko sugnr; novor hurts
tho stomach, never goes to tho head;
why, it just evaporates off tho tonguo.
Nothing bo tlno for tho health!"
And as sho liked it very much, sho
yielded j but bIio ojily swallowed half a
glassful.
Then Chicot, iu a burst of generosity,
cried out:
"Seo herei I tell you what I'll do with
you. Sinco you liko it, I'm going to give
you a littlo cask of it make you a
present of one just to show folks thnt
wo arc good 'friends."
Tho old woman did not say no; and
went homo slightly tipsy.
Next day, early, tho inn-keeper drove.
into Mer. Magloire's yard, and took out
of the bottom of tho vehicle a littlo cask
bound with iron hoops. Then ho made
her tasto the contents, to show her it was
tho very sumo ho had promised ; and
when they had both taken three moro
glnsses together, ho observed as ho pro
pared to go :
"And 1 want to tell you ono thing, you
know ; when it's all gone, thoro'a plenty
more for you. Don't bo backward in
telling inc. I don't caro nbout (ho cost
of it. The sooner it's finished the better
pleased I'll be."
And ho got into his tilbuty.
Four days later ho returned. Tho old
woman was sitting at the door, busy cut
ting up broad for her soup.
Ho sat down besido her, bid her good
day bout his face down very closo to
hers whilo talking, for tho purpose of
smelling her breath. And ho smelted a
strong smell of alcohol. Then his faco
brightened.
"Say, mother, I'm suro you'll ofTor mo
a littlo glass, eh?"
And they took two or thrco drinks
together.
Hut very soon thoro was a rumor
through tho country that old Mcro
Mnglorio was drinking, and getting
hopelessly drunk, all by herself. Some
times sho was nicked lit) from tho lloor
ot her Kitchon, or bho luul to he carried
in from the yard, or was found lying in
toxicated iu tho middlo of somo country
road, and had to bo brought homo,
senseless as any corpse.
CJiicot novcr went to seo her any
moro; and whonover anybody would
siieak of tho old woman ho would ex
claim :
"Isn't it awful o seo a person of her
ago form such n habit? And, you sec,
when ouo's us old as that, there's no
hopo for one. Somo day or other it'll bo
tho cud other!"
It was tho end of her, in fact. Sho
died tho winter after, hut about Christ
inas time, having lain down, very drunk
in the snow.
And Maitro Chicot found himself in
possession of tho farm. Ho declared:
"If that old fool hadn't got to drink
ing she'd havo lived ten years longer
anyhow." (iuy do Maupassant.
Frossn Pipes.
"Who is this man?"
"Tho ono who is rushing along with
his hat on the back ot his head, and his
oyes hanging out?"
"Yes."
"That is tho man who warned tho
servant girl the othor night to shut oil'
water to tlio pipes wouldn t freeze.
"And tho good girl obeyed?"
"Not exactly. Sho meant to, but her
beau camo up and die forgot all about
it ; consequently thoro was a freoze-up.
Poor girl! Sho is very torrv! If tears
would thaw tho pijtes sho would shed 'cm
by the hundred."
"And why does tho man rush?"
"Ho is on his way to tho plumber for
consolation."
"And what will tho plumber dot"
"IIo will show tho man 11,078 calls
which wero booked beforo ho camo in,
and which must 1k attended to in rotation-"
Crossing Snep.
English authorities give interesting
results of cross breeding between tho
merino nnd tho heavy English sheop,
has long been a hobby with many Now
Zoaland Hock owners. For this pur
pose tho Leicester and Lincoln seem to
havo been tho earlier favorites, thoiiKh
tho Cotswold is now held iu tho highest
esteem. It is claimed that cross-bred
animals leave littlo to bo desired by tho
advocate of wool and mutton on tho
same animal, tho first being long, lino
and lustrous, tho second well lined, juicy
and abundant.
Lejhorns for Front,
Thoso who wish an abundance of eggs
from puro bred fowls cannot do bettor
than to try tho famous Leghorns, which
aro justly noted for thoir laying quali
tiis. Thoro is very littlo difference in
tho merits of tho whito or tho brown va
riety; if thero is n difference it is in
favor of tho former. In joint of size
tho Leghorns aro small bodied and be
low average, but thoy aro "full of busi
ness" when it comes to filling tho egg
basket.
