A Vacillitting Hfear. My negro gardener cate to me one evening i great alarm, and stated that hia twinl sois, Slango and Citingo, had taken out his gun thati moring, arnd had been missing eyer since. I at once loaded my rifle, loosed iny Cuban bloodhound, and followed theI man to his hut. There I pult. the dog upon tle boy's scent, following oni horseback imyself. It turned out that the young scanp had gone on the trail of a large bear, though they were only thirteen years old, and th; father had often warned them not to iled die with wild beasts. They began their adventtuire y titiing the ear, but vilded, as often happens, lin being iuited by the bear ; for Bruin had turned npon them,atid chased them so hard that they were fatin to drop their gur:s and take to a tree. It' Was a sVCa1More of peCuiliar shalpi)e, sending forth from its stem many small, but. only two large, branches. These two were someithirty feet from the ground,and stretched almost horizontally In opposite directions. They were as the twin broth ers themselves. Chango took refuge on one of those, Mango on tile other. The bear hugged the tree till he had climbed as far as the fork. here ie! hesi tated ti Instant, and then began to creep along tie branch which supported chango. The beast advanced slowly and gingerly, sinking his claws into the bark at every step, anild not dependilig too 1much0 uponl his balancing powers. Clango's position was n6w far from pleasant. . It was useless to pla the trick -wel knbwn to bear-hiunter4-5f enticing the ailnial out to a point where the branch would y1eld beneath its great weight, for thele wats noldhier branch within Changor'S reach, by catching which lie oild save lihnself from at deadly fall,--thirty feet sheer. Three more steps, and the hear would be upon hin,or hie would be upon the ground. Brave as the boy was, his teeth chat.tered. At this moment, alngo, nerved to hero. lam by his brother's peril, moved rapidly from the opposite limb of tie tree. Step ping behind the hear, ie graspeI witI oW hand a small higher bough, which extended to whre ie Rlood, butII not to where his brother laY ; wit It the other hanid, lie seized the animal firmly by its stumpy tail. h'le bear tiurnedI to punish his rash assailant ; but, angry as lie was, he I inict Cauitioiusly, It was no eay task to right-abotit-face. on a bratich which already had begm to tremt ble and sway beieith his weigilt. Chango was saved, for the hear evidently had transferred his aninosity to Maigo, Wh1om1 he pursued stel) by step, toward the extremity of the other lhmb. ut. Chango was not the boy to leave his brother and rescuer in the lurch. Waiting until tihe eurazed bruto was wcl elllarked upon Mango's branch, lie pulled its tail, as he hand seen his brother do beforr. Again .liin turned awkwardly, and resimed the interrupted chase of Chango. The twins continued their tacties with sutccess. Whenever the bear was well ad vianced onl one limub, and dangerousqly close to one twinl, the otlier twinl would sally front the other limb and Itull his tall. The silly an11iimal a0 ways would yield to his latest l1#0se of wrath, and suffer himisel' to be diverted from the cieeIy who was almmost in his clutches. After two hours of (itappointlent, lie learned his mistake. lie was now for tile tenth time, on .11han1go's branch, and very near him. In vail Mango dr-agge(d his hinder extremity; he kept grimly oni till Ilango, forced to ethoose h tweel let IlIlg go the brute's til or the higher bllihIl whticlh enII'ed lint" to keel) his feet, let go the former. Chango could nrPw retrent n rmat her, and was ham il a yard bmeyontd the hear's rIech. Th'le branchl was swayhlig mlore than111ever, and lie bieast scentued quito atware thait he mlight, tax its strenmgthi tooi far. After a pauilse, lie adivaniced one of his fore foet a quarter of a yardl. To increalse the hear's ditliulty in iteizinig hiim, the terrified boy let hlimlself dIown' andiu swunmg n~ itht his hlands fromt tihe bou,gih. i1 ewasR hattiginig iln suspense beCtween t,wo f'right fu ldeat his. li s heairt wvas sinik lng, is ftingers were r'elaxinig.

Some plant in hills, but for general cultivation drill planting Is generally practiced. The plant,iug may be done with adrill, or by hand, in rows three and a half to four lect apat t, and running north and iouth. ii hand-dropping, shallow fur rows are marked out. with at small plOw, iud the seeds dropped In a contitanuous row two Inches apart, or at intervals, five or six seeds every fifteen inches.

One is the arrangement D )t the pendulum,lf one may so style the 0 art of the niechanisrn wich responds o the footfall, and then acts upon the -egistering apparatus. Tis, wilie ar anged so as to quickly respond to the - Irn tread of one wearer, will also be ictuated by the much lighter tread 00 vhich some other person may have, and a both cases will respond only once to ine step. 'Tis is an essential pollit; - vithout it the intrumeut would be ralueless. The French Instrument is 'aulty in this respect, and the fault is me which seemus Insoparable from its ')terior construction, and witich was ound, though to a less extent, in the 4nglish pedoneter. Tile American lstruinent his here a decided advan age. Another polut where the inven or of the American instrument has limpiled his ani made It supei lor to he pelolieters of foreign make, Is in lie fatellity of regulating it to the foot if any wearer. It Is an almost endless ask to regulate accurately a pedoineter ' foreign inako to one's use. IlavIng ound tie length of your footstep, the iew pedomneter can be adjuited thereto a easily as you can move the minute land of your watch. Those who use lie now, without having used tihe old tyle of instrument, will never realize lie new advantage gained in this re pect and those who have used the old vill appreciate the improvements oferred to.
