W.ts an Age of Stilted Periods. The epitaphs quoted in the ui?1 <*book have a distinctive tlavor. :?s if they WCI'c some Klinc-lill hrriiwl iiimmi. factured for tho abbey. The old kings in the splendid old tombs need no inscription. and have none, but as the architectural merit of the tombs decreases so docs the verbal decoration increase, and with the monstrous sculpture of the ? ighteenth century comes the florid and overwrought periods of the epitaph writers. You can almost tell the date of any individual specimen by the literary style. History records. 1 believe, that the morals of the eighteenth century were anything but above reproach in Kngland, but if Westminster is to be taken as the test that was an age of heroic saints and saintly heroes. Yet that these quaint old hypocrites were not selfdeceived is suggested by the closing sentence of one of the epl- j taphs of a priod following that of the most stilted specimen. "Header," it says, "if on nerusinu this tribute tn a private individual thou should bo disposed to suspect it as partial or censure It as diffuse, know that It is not panegyric, but history." True Sentiment Not Wanting. I'pon the monument of f J rare Scott, wife of Colonel Scott, a member of the honorable house of commons, ISM, are engraved these words: "lie that will give my (Jrare but what is hers Must say that death has not Made only In r dear Scott, 11nt virtue, worth ami sweetness, widow ers." Punning, indeed, was highly es termed by the ancient eulogists, as instanced in tin' < pitaph to Sir James Fullcrton "lie <iio< 1 fuller of faith than of f?*ar; fuller of consolation than of pains: fuller of honor than of lays" Vet there are not wanting specimens of true and ingenious sentiment, as that In the case of Mrs. Mary Kendall, whose friendship for Ia'kI.v Catherine Jones was such that "she desired that even their ashes , after death might not he divided and therefore ordered herself here to he i interred where she knew that excellent lady designed one day to rest near the grave of her heloved and religious mother," and also the little marble cradle over the grave of the daughter of James 1 . who died at the age of three days, with versos hy Susan Coolldge, which do not wholly lose their pathos in spite of the fact that they are placarded on tho walls j with the "K< ep Order" and other signs !

RAISING GEESE FOR PROFIT Eastern Man Gives Interesting and Miniitu n^tnllc of MIc From Beginning. g I have been raising geese the last 15 years; only one breed, the Einbden, says a writer in Baltimore American. I prefer this because of its hardiness, size, docility and color. The feathers sell here for five cents above the mar. ket price for others. I like to have the goslings hatch in April or earlier. This avoids the hot weather. Hens are used for hatching. Each i? given six eggs, or if she be large, perhans BGVpn. 'l'lip nlrt ennnp mmln f? lay again, but allowed to sit on tho second clutch of eggs. I think geesu better mothers than hens. They are more solicitous, can care for a greater number and the gander will also assist his mate. When time is almost up for hatching I - put the eggs in lukewarm water and all containing live goslings will turn. 1 think the water softens the shell and causes a better hatch. Kggs from the first year's laying aro usually not so fertile as later eggs. l'lioy are also fewer in number, and produce weaker goslings. (Jeese do not fail in egg production like hens, hut may be kept for years. If ganders are kept longer than the third year they usually become so cross they cannot be allowed to run with other fowls. I keep the young in a small inclosure till they can walk without turning on their backs. Then let thorn have the run of a good pasture. They pet plenty of water, but it is not neces* A Profitable Flock. sary that they bathe; bettor not. I never leave them out in heavy rains, for they will open their mouths and drink enough water to drown. As soon as fully feathered, in threo or four months, they are ready to pick, and may be picked every eight weeks. After the fall picking 1 begin to feed grain. When fully feathered they will be ready for market. If they can have free access to a plot of corn they will not allow any of it to go to waste, and will save trouble of feeding.
