War (siea, meant originally to keen the fighting men aware of the place of their own clan in battle, or when sct tered In woods and bills, eame down to the baronial period, and were need by the Anglo-Norman nobles out of con sideration for their Gaelic retainers. The commonest shout was some name of famous place or famous man with the addition aboo. a word weU fitted for the clamor of a band of fighters, being at once more musical and less wearying to the voice than our "hur rah." The Kildare retainers cried "Crom aboo I" in honor of Crom castle, a citadel in Limerick county, originally a stronghold of the O'Donovans, which one of the intrusive Geraldine families. named after the town of Kildare, occu pied while turning Irish. The O'Neills cried out, "Lawv dareg aboo 1" because the Lawv dareg or Bed Hand was the badge of the family and clan. The O'Briens cried, "Lawv Laid er !" or "Laudir aboo!" or "Strong Hand aboo V The translator of Geoff rey K eating's "History of Ireland" sug gests as the meaning of aboo the Irish word booa, victory; but analogy would point rather to boa (beotha), lively, awake, spirited ; when aboo would be an exclamation like the French alerte I and vivel A parallel in Irish is the weU known Erin go bra! "Erin tiU Judgment day !" where go bra, forever, implies the same idea of living wtiich the word beotha actually contains, since the latter is the Keltic equivalent of Greek bios. "Tabu 1" is the exclamation of Tartar horsemen when urging their steeds for ward. While on this topic it may be interesting to note that this Irish word, or its Welsh equivalent yu byw, cor rupted to boo and boh, is found in our coUoquial expression, "He doesn't dare say boo to a goose ;" or in other words, he is too cowardly to sound his war cry in the presence of the most peaceful of creatures.

BILL NYE A3 A FARMER. tie Relates Some of Ills Experiences as a Tiller of he Soil. The secretary of the Ash field Farmers' club of Ashflcld, Mass., Mr. E. D. Church, Informs rue by United States mail that upon receipt of my favorable reply I will become an honorary member of that club, along with George William Curtis, Professor Norton, Professor Stanley Hall, of Harvard, and other wet browed toilers in tta catnip in fested domain of agriculture. I take this method of thanking the Ash fleld Farmers' clnb, through its secretary, for the honor thus all so unworthily bestowed, and joyfully accept the honorary member ship, with the understanding, however, that during the county fair the solemn duty of delivering the annual address from the Judges' stand, in tones that will not only ring along down the corridors 01 time, but go thundering three times around a half mile track and be heard above the rhythmlo plunk of tba hired man who is trying to as certain, by means of a large mall and a thumping machine, how hard he can strike, shall fall upou Mr. Curtis or other honorary members of the club. I have m voice that does very well to express endearment or tber subdued emotions, but it is not effective nt a county fair. Spectators see the wonder ful play of my features, but they only hear the low refrain of the haughty Clydesdale steed, who has a neighsal voice and wears bis tail in a Grecian coiL I received flW once for addressing a race track one mile in length on "The Use and Abuse of Ensilage as a Narcotic." I made tho gestures, but the sentiments were those of the four ton Per. cheron charger, Little Medicine, dam Elo quent. I spoke vnder a low shed and rather ad verse circumstances. In talking with the committdtt afterwarl, as I wrapped up my gestures and put t'-iem back in the shawl strap, I said that I felt almost ashamed to receive such a price for the sentiments of others, but they said that was all right. No one expected to hear an agricultural address. They claimed that it was most generally purely spectacular, and so they regarded my speech as a great success. I used the same gestures afterward in speaking of "The Great Falling Off Among Bare Back Riders in the Circuses of the Present Day." Mr. Church writes that the club has taken up, discussed and settled all points of impor tance bearing upon agriculture, from the tariff up to the question of whether or not turpentine poured in a cows ear ameliorates the pangs of hollow horn. He desires sug gestions and questions for discussion. That shows the club to be thoroughly active. It will soon be spring, and we cannot then dis cuss these matters. New responsibilities will be added day by day in the way of stock, and we will have to think of names for them. Would it not be well before the time comes for active farm work to think out a long list of names before the tittle strangers arrive I Nothing set ves to lower us in the estimation 01 our fellow farmers or the world mora than the frequent altercations between own ers and their hired help over what name they shall give to a weary, wobbly calf who has just entered the great arena of life, full of hopes and aspirations perhaps, but otherwise absolutely empty. Let us consider this be fore spring fairly opens, so that we may be prepared for anything of this kind. One more point may properly come before the club at its next meeting, and I mention it here because I may be so busy at VV ashing- ton looking after our other interests that I cannot get to the dub meeting. I refer to the evident change in climate here from year to year, and its effect upon seeds purchased Of florists and seedsmen generally. Twenty years ago you could plant a seed according to directions and it would produce a plant which seemed to resemble in a general way the picture on the outside of the pack age. Now, under the fluctuating influences of irresponsible isotherms, phlegmatic springs, rare June weather and overdone weather In August, I find it almost impossi ble to produce a plant or vegetable which in any way resembles its portrait. Is it my fault or the fault of the climate! I wish the club would take hold of this at its next regu lar meeting. I first noticed the change in the summer of 73, 1 think. I purchased a small package of early Scotch plaid curled kale with a beauti ful picture on the outside. It was as good a picture of Scotch kale as I ever saw. I could imagine how gay and lighthearted it was too day it went up to the studio and had its picture taken for this purpose. A short editorial paragraph under the picture stated that I should plant in quick, rich soil, in rows four inches apart, to a depth of one inch, cover lightly and then roll. I did so. No farmer of my years enjoys rolling any better than I da In a few weeks the kale came npbut turned out to be a canard. I then waited two weeks more and other forms of vegetation made their appearance. None of them were kale. A small delegation of bugs which deal mostly with kale came into the garden one day, looked at the picture on the discarded paper. then examined what bad crawled out through the ground and went away. I be gan to fear thea that climatic influences had been at work ou theaeeds, but I had not fully given up all hope. At first the plants seemed to waver and hesitate over whether they had better be wild parsnips or Lima beans. Then I concluded that they had decided to be foliage plants or rhubarb. But they did not try to live up to their portrait Pretty soon I discovered that they had no bugs which seemed to go with them, and then 1 knew they were weeds. Things that are good to eat always have bugs and worms on them, whiie tansy and castor oil go through life unmolested. I have had other similar experiences, and I think we ought to do something about it if we can. I have planted the seed of the morning glory .and the moon flower and dreamed at night that my home looked like a florists advertisement, but when leafy June came a bunch of Norway oats and : bill of corn were trying to climb the strings nailed up for the use of my non-resident vines. I have planted, with song and laugh ter, the seeds of the ostensible pansy and car nation, only in tears to reap the bachelor's button and the glistening foliage of the sorghum plant. I have planted in faith and a deep, warm soil, with pleasing hope in my heart and a dark red picture on the outside of the package, only to harvest the low, vul gar jimson Vi and the night blooming bull thistle. - Does the mean temperature or the average rainfall have anything to do with itf If sta tistics are working these changes they ought to be stopped. For my own part, however, I lim led to believe that our seedsmen put so much money into their catalogues that they k not have anything left to use in the pur- base of seeds. Good religion and very fair cookies may be produced without the aid of ccuraway seed, but you cannot gather nice, f resh train figs of thistles or expect much of a seedsman whose plants make no effort what ever to resemble their pictures. Hopinz that you wilt examine into ibis matter, and that the club will always here after look carefully in this column for its farm information, I remain, in a Bitting posture, yours truly. Bill Nye in New York World. Down Agriculture. The basest fraud on earth is agri- eulture. The deadliest ignis fatuus that ever glittered to beguile and dazzle to betray Is agriculture.

Garments Cat. Pitted and Donned la a Bar prUlngly Short Time. The style of a woman's gown bai be come a matter of such importance that not only is the country flooded with fashion magazines, but the staid news and literary journals succumb to the ruling demand, and publish every week one or two columns of fashion articles. Ladies read them with anxious interest and spend hours and days of precious time in constructing garments in accord ance with them. I wish to draw a con trasting picture. Last spring I received an invitation from a friend, the wife of an army offi cer, to spend the summer with her at a post in New Mexico. Of course I ao eepted, and rich visions filled my mind, making a kaleidoscope of noble red men, owboys, bronchos, brass buttons and military bands as only a young girl like myself can imagine. I was going on the war path and must put on my war pa nt, L e., pretty clothes. I hadn't a great deal of money and that went for material; the making was to be done at home. Fort fled with fashion plates innumerable, mother, sisters, friends and myself, began a month's siege of cutting, basting, trying on, etc., till when the day came for my departure, with my well filled Saratoga, I was worn to a shadow of my former self. But there was consolation in the contents of the trunk, which were to array me with splendor that neither Solomon In all his glory, nor the lilies of the field, could approach. The long ride over the plains was notbing, so filled were my thoughts with pictures of my new life, picknick- ing in the canyons by day, with a gal lant Lieutenant by my side, and danc ing or flirting to my heart's content with the same or another Lieutenant at night, with a medley of Ind:ans and cowboys thrown In. I confess my most anxious consideration was which of the many pretty gowns should I don first to make the deepest impression. Two of equal beauty lay conveniently near the top of the trunk to be decided on at a moment's notice. Well, I arrived and saw the Indians. the cowboys, the canyons, the brass buttons and other wonders, and was duly amused and awed by them. But It remained for an Indian squaw to give me my greatest surprise. One day as I was wandering about the grounds I saw a squaw, wearing an ex ceedingly ragged and dirty calico dress. go into the post-trader's store. In a few minutes she emerged from the store carrying a roll of gaudy calico in ber band. Seating herself upon the steps. she produced from some region about her person, a needle, thread and a pair of rusty scissors. With these she pro ceeded to manufacture a dress, and in an amazingly short time it was finished. Then with a dexterous flirt, in full view of the disregarded spectators, she lipped it over her head, and after some mysterious sleight of hand inside of it, be arose, dropping and leaving the old garment on the ground as a snake dis cards last year's skin. , Fully equipped with clothes for at least six months wear, she walked away unconcernedly back to ber quarters. Detroit Free Press. THE ART OF MENDING. Ever Ctrl fh jo:d Aeqnlre It as Early as 1-oaalbte. There is nothing more important in the instruction of the children of the household than systematic lessons in mending. As soon as a little girl Is able to handle a needle she should be taught to darn her stockings and sew on shoe buttons. As soon as she has mastered these arts, she should be taught how to lay patches; not in a hap hazard fashion, but neatly and flatly, matching the pattern of the goods and laying the patch the proper way of the cloth. A patch, put on properly and pressed after it is put on, can hardly be recognized as a patch. .The darning of cloth is an art by itself which even ex pert seamstresses do not always under itand. The edges of the rent should be brought together, and the needle run through the cloth between the inside and the outside in such a way as to con eeal the stitches. When the darn is dampened and pressed, it becomes al most inv.sible, and can only be found after the closest inspection. It will be a long time before a little girl can do such neat work as this, but she should be encouraged in every way to try. Lessons In mending should be g ven as a stimulus to economy as well as good needle-work. A girl who has been prop erly brought up, and is compelled to do her own mending, wl:l be more careful of her clothes than one who is at no pains to mend rents. For this reason if It is considerable more trouble to over see mending than to do it yourself the child should do it, not only for the sake of the instruction, but in order that she may suffer from her carelessness if the rent Is the result of carelessness. An important part of all mending is the ripping and preparing the work for mending. If tbe garment needs re- lining it is often desirable to make it over entirely, in which case it should be ripped thoroughly. Tbe thread should be brushed off and the garment cleaned. There are many ways of cleaning ma terials that can not be washed. Deli cate silk ribbons and other silk may be sponged with a little alcohol diluted with water. Stains caused by taids may usually be taken out by a weak solution of ammonia and water. oolen goods. that are too much faded t be made over, may often be dyed and combined w.th a little new silk and may give as much wear as they did before. There Is always special sat sfactlon in making over a new dress that had seemed to be past its usefulness and in finding it able to serve again and perhaps look better than it did when it was new. The se cret of the proverbially economical and well-dressed French-woman s success lies not only in her taste, but in her Ingenuity in making over and repairing her clothes. However old her dress it Is mended so neatly that it never ap pears shabby. The most careful and economical women are usually tbe best dressed, because they know how to take care of their clothes, while women who spend money lavishly on their attire are often slovenly to the end. N. x. Tribune. A Glimpse of Walter Damrosch. Mr.- Walter Damrosch undoubtedly stands near the head of American con ductors; if not in experience, at nil events in musical culture.
