Mr. Marshall` spoke to me and asked me to play back- gammon. It was the only game of pleasure that I knew, and 1 was de- lighted at the thought; I put down my sewing, and he brought the board and arranged the game. Julia sat in a cor- ner of the=sofa with some embroidery. Just as we were ready to play, I look- ed up and saw the table still stood `spread with its linen cloth, and the crumb cloth had not been taken up, Julia glanced at it the same moment and then turned serenely back to her embroidery.

This much-mooted question is of quite recent origin, says the National Live Stock Weekly. It is "natural to suppose that all animal life needs exer- cise in order to retain all its functions in_healthy activity. But what kind of exercise? 'Not very much loco- motion is needed in secreting milk. Even general health is maintained with quitemcderate exercise. Do not "cows A get considerable exercise in: steppnq around, getting up and down., reaching. for food, and licking themselves, when so conned as to be permitted to do so ! In Holland cows are` conned in a hot stable at the be ginning of winter, and `are not let out` until sett.led_ warm weather. This, at first, seemed incredible; yet.all wit- nesses testify to the healthy condition of the Holland cows. Gradually, dur- ing the last few -years, American dairy-' menhave more _closely conned their_ cows, and kept them warmer than ever before, not only keeping-them in warm stables, but resorting to artificial heat, and giving them warm water to drink.
