A ROYAL QUARTETTE.
Ar Irishman happened to lu; in Paris
a short time ago, while throe crowned
beads of Europe were there on a unfit to
his Imperial-Majesty, Napoleon. These
distinguished persons were the Emperors
of Russia and Austria and the Ring of
Prtisi i. One day having the avn aside
all state ceremony th y determined to
NUC th(‘ ‘iU'M.u nfi fi (' l'v ,111 til'nl vuity on
the Seine lor their own delectation and
tor that purpose they determined to go
incog., so us not to lu> recognized by the
people. However in their str II thr. ugh
Paris they went astray and meeting a
g'cutcely loek pg person w.lm liappi ned
to lie an Irishman tiny politely asked
him if he would kindly direct them to the I
Palais Royal.
‘Faith and that I will, mv hoys,’ says
Pat at the same time taking a mental
pholognph of the three ‘boys.’ This
way my hearties,’ and so they were eon-1
ducted to the gates of the Royal palace
and the Irishman was about bidding:
t.iem farewell when the Emperor of Ru»-
8"i inten sti and and pleased as much by I
the gin . e pnlitoncss of Pat as by his 1
naueteaiil witty temarks asktti him j
who I e was.

After some further p r Eying one said,

‘And mix' u In, ike bold enough to ask

‘Most, happy to make y uir ncquuhi

who thinking lie v.ms lion vd, and ill Ills
de.-pairing etj'oits to got.jtlio truth, na he
chiu uivefi out of iiny oflliem, turned to
the third one and said, ‘W-lio are yon ?
‘They call me Frederick Willi..in, ami
i am King’ of Prussia.’
They then reminded him that lie had
promised to tell them who lie was and
after some hesitation with a mysterious
air of confidence, Pat, putting Ids hand
to his month wlin.perod: '! am tho Einpe

In looking around among my brother
lannci s I notice many things wherein
there tnig t be greater economy in my
opinion. *
In turning cattle out late in the fall
when the ground is soft to ho trampled

In letting catt'e stand in an nnshelter
led yard in cold stormy weather when
I there ieoi no in the stable for them.
la throwing their fodder iti the yard
to be trampled under foot instead of feed
ing it in racks.
In not having water in the yard, for

Slioiv and all kinds of weather to ih&

ring a year than the interest of vvbat it
would cost to bring water in the , ard to

Jn not. having a house for poultry to
roost in, and save their droppings ; the
value el the latter from a hundred lowls

building not counting the advantage it

In leaving potato vines, weeds, etc,
j go to waste instead of,hauling them to

I in riding about and leaving the man
agement of the work too much to hired

Ami last but not least, in sending their
children to school a day or two in each
week, arid allowing them to play and
