Two days later ho told her that ho ban met with such success in destroying tobacco that ho would try his hand at other kinds of wood—sho permitting— and with this she let him inside the gate, aud that day the garden was well cared for.

How Frogs IIulp Farmers. [American Agriculturist] Mr. C. M.

[Cor. Norristown Herald.] Those who have read that very en joyable book, “The Story of tho Merv,” will remember tho description Mr. O'Donovan gives of tho Evs or houses of the Turcomans and tho curious charm ho found in most of them. He says. “Within tho roof, and ne.tr its top, hang a couple of lamb or goat skins, turned inside out, and smoko dried. The neck-aperture is kept widely open hy four crossed sticks. These skins * n 'Be air current pro- garden crops. Tho average quant itie. of various insects aud other substances determined by the examinations arc ns follows: Infects, 80 per cent.; spiders, 5 per cent.: sow-bugs, 1 per cent., and tho balance, vegetable mat ter of various kinds. Of the in sects, over half are known to bo injurious, and one-quarter are on the doubtful list. Much of tho vegetubN* matter (loaves, etc.,) was probably swallowed accidentally, along with the insects and spiders. Nearly all tin stomachs contained grasshoppers, and in one they made up 7(1 per cent, of the contents. The Carabid beetles formed a large part of tho fond taken by sotno'w’ the frogs. Tho Strawberry Crown Girdlcr was well represented, as also were several other pests of the garden. Much has been said for and against tlm frogs, the robiu, nnd the crow, hut there is no evalence of usefulness more posi tive than the finding of largo numbers of injurious insects in the stomachs of these creatures. that ambergris issues from a tree, which manages to shoot its roots into the water, seeking the warmth therefrom in order to deposit the fat gum of which it is tho soured “When that fat gum is shot into the sea, it is so tough that it is not easily broken from the root un less by the strength of its own weight. If yon plant such trees where tho stream sets to the shore, then tho stream will cast it up to great advantage.” In course of time it was found that this prec’ous commodity was generated in the whale i.sclf. An American doc- lor residing iu Boston made it public in 1724 that somo Nantucket whalemer, in cutting up a spermaceti whale, had found about twenty pounds of tho val uable substance, which, they said, was contained in a cyst or bag without either outlet or inlet. As n mutter of fact, ambergris, which is nn important drug, is a morbid secretion in tho in- test ines of tlio sperm whale. The I’a- ii lie whalers search keenly for this commodity, and largo finds of it some times bring them a rich reward.

San Francisco Chronicle.] I was surprised to find how ninny ex cellent inventions tho Milanese possess. Those about the house were particularly noticeable. The upjxr panels of the bed room doors were swung on hinges and fastened with thumb-screws—an excel lent device for ventilating the room. The bedstead rollers traveled in n light iron rail, which slid Uj>on tho carpet and thus saved it from being cut by the wheels. The bolts to tho closed doors displayed the word “Libro” when open ana *'Cecil pio” when shut. All this was a revelation to me.
