LITTLE LION,

voice "tJn.

Tli© dog, a big, fierce-looking mastiff, was tugging at hi* chain and snarling viciounly at a dark, thin little boy, who wtui evidently afraid to venture within his reach, and totally incaj»able of untying him, aa ho was ordered to da

The boy looked timidly at the dog, gythen cast a frightened glance at the door, pHTfo^va# between two fires, and, with a littftf ga*p of terror, solved the problem by fleeing from both. Ills bare, brown foot flew over the ground, and he dieappeared in the tall growth of mustard that lifted bright yellow blossom* above hi» head.

How fragrant and utill it wa» in there! Looking up at the golden tuft# that swayed in the breesse, he »aw hummingbirds flit to and fro, dipping their beak* into one flower aftor another, and the blue sky over all without a cloud to mar ita clear sapphire.

In the meantime Joel Edwards had unfastened the dog, given him his supper by the doorway, and stood with a sullen face watching him eat.

Mr. Edwards was an American, fear* less, hardworking aisd hotusst. Just the man to bear the hardship of a frontier life, and to have no charity for tlioee of weaker physique and

before he had gone to Arizona from an Eastern town, and, after mining a little with no success, had taken up a ranch not far from the Mexican border.

Then he married a pretty Mexican girl, built an adobe house, cleared the land around it, and was now enjoying the reeults of hard work and lonely life, t-..tor the Mexican girl had made him a good wife, and was perfectly content with her humble surroundings,

Ttgwr, the dog. ran ahead, salMng along the grotmd. and Joei kept close behii^, for he knew that Tiger could find Leon quickly*

Although there was no reason to fear immediate danger, yet Josefe felt unusually nervosa about the boy's absence, and she saw that her husband shared Iter fear*. When, in about fifteert minutes, she saw them coming rapidly towards her, ahe seot a prayer of thanfefulnesa to her patron saint When she looked again they had almost reached the hottse. She heard Joel's voice reassuring the lad, who seemed excited and terrified, at the same time pulling the dog along by main strength. tier heart was filled with terror. Had Tig&r gone mad, to resist his master in this manner, or bad he caught sight of lurking Indiana?

Suddenly there came a wild cry repeated by many throats, and answered again and again by the echoing hills—a shot, a heavy fall

Joel by just outside the door motionless. The child, with a white face, tried in vain to raise him, but the strong arms of the wife lifted him into the house, while Leon pulled Tiger in after them, although the creature was bristling with ra£'. and his eyes glowed like coals of Are a.» he heard the Indian war-cries, "Ho, Tiger, come with us we need you lH cried Jatefe, and tlte creature answered with a low whine, reaching up and touching his master** face with his tongue. Now all was quiet. The Indians had vanished, and the night was coming on.

The dooK and windows were barricaded, and Josefe was rapidly loading all the firearms. Site had done all she could for her husband. He had been shot between the ribs. Whether it was a mortal wound she could not tell, but hU face was gray and dra wn, and his breath came in painful gasps.

Tiger, his fo re-paws on tbe bedside, watched his master with almost human sympathy in his eyes.

Josefe knew the Indians would return as sewn as they had perfected some scheme of attack—probably at midnight when the moon had risen. That would give them four hours' respite, four hours of life, for what chance could they have to escape? It would not take long for the Indians to break down their doors, and then death in a most horrible form awaited them all,

For along time Leon crouched by the window, seeming to see or hear nothing, so deeply was he buried in thought. At last he rose and softly touched his mother's shoulder. She was crying and reached out and put her arm about him with her face hidden. "Mother," he whispered, "we shall all be killed by morning, if no help comes, and father will die long before that 1 could not shoot an Indian, but I can run almost as fast as the fox father shot yesterday, and 1 may reach the settlement, and they will come and save you and father," "No! nol" cried the poor mother, "the Indians are all about the house, in the bushes it would be sure death. I can shoot and Tiger is fierce and strong, we may frighten them away." Then clasping him closer in her arms she murmured, "Wo can at least die together," "God will keep you while I am gone. Kiss me and let me go I" answered the child, unclasping her clinging hands. Then he began to undo tho fastening* of the door. But the mother held him fast, while solis broke from her pale lips. *0 Leon, my boy I stay here with me I 1 am afraid to let you go,"

Then Leon turned to his father, whose eyes were open and who seemed eon* scioua for tho awl time since he was shot, "Father, you will 1st me go I am not afraid,H he pleaded,

A joyful light came into the father's dim eyes and he whispered, hoarsely, •Go, little Won, and save your mother."

The mother sank weeping Into a chair Leon, not waiting for another took or word, opened tho door and slipped out into the darknes8uji^i\

It was three miles to the settlement, a wild, rough road at any time, but now the mother's heart was heavy with misery a* she thought of the danger. He was little and so timid I Why had she not gone in his place? But no, ahe could not leave her dying husband, and tlien she could not slip so deftly from hush to hush or be so likely to eecape notice.

Low exclamations of pain came from the bed. Joel grew delirious and. broken sentences came from his fevered lipa.

Untie the dog. I say. He to afraid! A sen of mine! Don't tell Josefe, pooi tittle Josefe, but It's the Spanish Wood, not mine. A coward! my eon!* Again in tone* of loving pride he murmured,

Little Lion, brave and strong, fierce too, a little, hut who cawe? So was I once, hut don't tell Joeefe, pretty Joeefe.* And the weary hours paaeed on.

The clock on the mantel struck twel?*. Josefe, piping out through a crevice In the blind, saw that the moon had rfeen. It hung, calm and radiant, surrounded by thousands of gliiting star*

Almost wild with terror ste ran totht bed, thre her arms around her husband, heeooght him to look up, speak tc her, mve her, and for an instant he seemed conscious, then rambled off intc scenes of his boyhood. Then she buried her face in the pillow and murmured the prayers taught hear in bar childhood, thinking her last hour had cwna.

But at last he thought he was fat enough from home to be comparatively safe. Then he ran like a deer, and twe horns after starting was pounding at the door of a house in the settlement.

Half a dozen fierce dogs were leaping and barking about him, but he nevei thought of fear, and when a gruff voice from the window questioned him be quickly told his story and pushed to th* next house and the next

In a few minutes tlte whole village was astir, horses were toddled, loud, excited voices called back and forth.

Leon was lifted on a saddle in front of Pedro Martinez, who was bristling w-ith pistols and knives. Leon felt afraid tcsitso near such an arsenal, but was ashamed to object, and so clung as closely as possible to the pony's head.

Hie brave Mexicans dashed off as soon as they could vault into their saddles, each trying to outrun his neighbor, and the Indians were taken wholly by surprise. Quick shots were fired, crack! crack I crack! faster than one could count, the blazing fire making it impossible for them to slink away unseen.

Jorefe, startled by the*e new sounds, recognized tlte voices of neighbors and friends. The door, rendered weak by the fire and blows from the Indians" hatchets, now gave way and fell in upon the floor.

Before she could rise to her feet a familiar figure had leaped in and was stamping out the flame* and throwing the burning planks out into the yard. "All's well, Josefe," called Pedro Martinez, "there's been a thinning out of the redskinsii Pick yourself up and get that scared look out of your eyes," and a large, smutty hand gently shook .her by the shoulder and Iteldatin cup to her lips filled with water and cinders, "Look up, mother, we are all safe! some of the Indians are killed and the rest ran away," and Leon's arms were around her neck and his large, dark eyes, misty with tears, met her bewildered gaze.

An old Mexican was bending over Joel, and after working over him some time, nodded wisely to tho circle of rough but kindly lookers-on: "He's badly hurt, but he will come round all right Thanks to tho little fellow, though, for 1 Rot here none too soon." •Joel soon proved the old wiseacre's prophecy correct and got welt and strong.

This terrible night's suffering was a happy thing in the end, for it drew father and son together again, and the mutual love and pride with which each regarded the other removed the only cloud which had ever shadowed Josefe's happy llfe.—iYottth's Companion, -pp

To Avoid Awrideate to Factories. A very useful invention, tending ito lessen the possibility of accidents in factories, is now being extensively adopted in England. The breaking of a glass, which is adjusted against the wall of every room in tlte mill, will at once stop the engine, an electric current being established between the room and the tlirottle valve of the engine, shutting off the steam In an instant By this means tli© engine was stopped at one of the mills recently in a few seconds, and a young girl, whose clothes had become entangled in an upright shaft, was released uninjured.

No garden fe cxMajtfeto witlwat a he^eed, In whidh to raise early tomato, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, cucumber, squash, melon, and egg-plants, together with early lettuce and radishes. It should be made to the latter part of March, or beginning of April, varying, however, a week or two—or even mot^-according to the difference in climate afad latitude. The following figure of a hot-bed, on a fmail scale, may aid those who have had no experience In constructing one:

The first thing to be provided wBI be a quantity of manure sufficient for the bed—one four by eight feet in size would be of very moderate dimensions and tor such a bed, three twohone loads of horse manure would be requisite.

Make the frame-work of your hot-bed with inch boards—or inch and a half pi«nir—pine answers beat, as it does not warp readily and put them together in box form, the size of your contemplated bed—and placed facing the soutli, six or eight inches high in front, and about twice as much in the rear. This slope will carry off the rains from the sashglass the sash should have no crossbars, or if common sash Is used, cut down the cross-bars so as to let the panes lap over like shingles and provide grooves on the upper side of the frame, to allow the sash to slide freely, for opening in warm weather and closing at night, or when the weather is Coat the frame with crude petroleum, using gas tar, if convenient, for the in side where it comes in contact with the earth, or a coat or two of paint, if petroleum can not be had.

It is time to make tbe bed when the steam begins to rise from the manure heap. Some prefer to dig a pit, the size of the designed bed, where there is thorough natural drainage to the subsoil, and fill it with the manure while others prefer to make the natural surface the basis on which to build their beds— placing the manure in even layers over the whole surface, till they reach a height of two and a half or three feet Keep the interior of the bed well beaten down with the manure-fork when spread in each successive layer, and tread the outside with tin feet to render it sufficiently compact—othnrwm the outside will settle most, and the bed will crack open in the middle. When the whole is completed, put the frame in its place, as shown in the figure, and close the sash till the heat begins to rise, which can readily be ascertained by thrusting the finger down into the ma iure. Then fill in about six or eight inches of the best, cleanest, richest mold—that taken from an old rich pasture is better than from the garden, inasmuch as the latter, if along time in use, is apt to contain eggs of destructive insects which are hatch 51 by tlte heat of the bed—and if thii contain a small percentage of c'ay, and be composted with one-third of wellrotted leaf mold from the forest, it will be all the Iwtter.

When tliis bed becomes warm, in a day or two, which the steam condensing on the gloss will indicate, the seed may be sown in rows north and south.

As soon as the young plants are up, care must be taken to give them plenty of air, but not to chill or freeze them. Open the sash more or.less, aocording to the condition of the weather. Be particularly careful not to leave the sash closed when the morning sun comes out upon tbe glass, as the air within Is heated with great rapidity while thus confined, and the plants are easily scalded or killed. If a very cold snap occurs, throw a blanket or mat over the glass. A liberal supply of water of a moderate temperature must.he giv.?n to the plants while growing In the bed—rain water is the hast.

Professor William J. Green, of the Ohio station, having tested the effect of early and late picking for apples, says: "Early picking of apples improves their keeping qualities, but no difference is manifest for nearly sir months after picking. If kept for a longer period than six months the early picked apples show a decided gain over those picked late.

One of the drawbacks to the germination of seeds Is that they are covered with too much earth when planted. The smaller the seed the less covering required. Such seeds as kale cabbage, turnip, lettuce, carrot, and parsnip need only one-eighth of an inch of earth over them.

All fert ilizers for vines should bespread around the base over a wide surface. As a rule the vine that makes rapid growth at the top and spreads over a large surface makes large root growth also. It the fertilizer is spread close to the stem the small rootlets do not have an opportunity to appropriate it. As the roots reach out they will secure all the nutrition that is within their reach.

The Wilson blackberry is the best for market, not on account of quality, but because of the large size of the berry. This variety, however, is more liable to be "stung," which swells the canes and lessens the amount of fruit No remedy Is known

Sprains,

From slipping the heavy draught or fast driving horses are especially liable to sprait oif the tendons or ligaments, causing laynenesfc The parts are feverish, hot, lender, and painful. In all cases of lameness in horses the foot should be carefully examined, as nails, defective shoeing, or injury of the foot are the most common causes of lameness. In cattle or sheep the feet may also be the most frequent eeat of injury. If the heel cannot be put down level on tiie ground, the strain is located in tbe back tendons, and if not of recent injury a high-heeled, shoe will relieve the a train upon the tender tendon. In acute cases hot applications should be used.

XJmoon LMO.

Lime has so little direct value as a fertilizer that if applied alone to land which destitute of the elements of vegetable growth, its effect would scarcely be preceptible. But on soils of moderate fertility lime acts very beneficially. It changes the mechanical condition of both light and heavy soils and liberates latent elements of fertility already in the soil. Nearly all ordinary sells, even those lying on limestone formations, are benefited by applications of lime at intervals oi three to five years.

Away to preserve cut flowers is thus given by the Orange Judd Farmer: Immerse in a solution of gum arabic and water two or three times, waiting a sufficient time between each immersion to allow the gum to dry. This process covers the surface with a thin coat of gum, which is entirely impervious to the air, and thus prevents the withering of the flowers. Roses thus preserved have all the beauty of freshly plucked ones, though they have been plucked several months.

It (is common for those who begin growing peaches to order a large proportion of the very early sorts, with the idea that these are most profitable. This, as peach-growers find by experience, is a delusion. The very early peaches come in competition with the later small fruits. They are more apt to rot on tbe trees just at the time they should ripen. A few for home use are well enough, but the growing of peaches would be more profitable if only the later sorts were grown for market
