Auguet, she shivered as she tottered
along the audios way, under the weight
of a heavy, sleeping child. She was
miserably lad, and her blistered feet
were hardly protected, from the pitiless
stoma by the wretched, shoes site wore.
She strained the little one to her with
a fierce, hard clasp that had little of
love in, it, though it was her only one,
hushing ita fearful wails with vindie-
tive little shako. A forlorn and wretch-
ed couple' as any on whom that warm
August night shut down.
"Whimpering again" the man said,
with a horrible with; "you want me

"But, Joe," with a wild, tortured cry',

The man's answer WAS a brutal blow.
He turned round upon the frail ereeteiee
beside him, with a volley of blood-
curdling oaths and struck her full in
the face.
"I told you I'd do it," he said, with a
wolfish glare in his greenish eyes; "now,
will you stop your whimpering, mistress?
YOU used to be proud of that pretty
fate of yours, Look in the glass to-
morrow, and see if you'll be proud of it
any more. Come on, and hold your in-
fernal clack, or Pli smash every bone
in your body, by--!"
The woman heti staggered blindly
back, the blood spurting from a deep cut
between the eye, but she did not fall.
She put up one haucl and wiped away
the flowing blood, then, without a sin-
gle word, resumed her walk after him.
"Oh, we take it quiet, do we?" ,the

himself heavily, with it groan and a
curse, upon the fragrant bed.

The young offieere had flung their ela-

drawn a knot of Russian violets from

"Oh, my prophetic soul!" growled En-

She broke off,

MUSHROOMS,

•Serne, esteemed eontemporaries have
been publianing infallible rules ter dee.
tinguishing mushrooms and toadstools,
4or1le ot them are incuteine no alight re.
snonsibility in doing so for some of the
rules given are far from safe. To begin
with, the botanist does oot distinguish
between mushroent and toadstools,though
he may distinguish between mushrooms
that are peisioneus and rnushrooins that
are edible, "Toadstool" is a name given
popularly to mushrooms that are ewe-
pcsed to be poisonous. As a matter of
fact many Of the so-called toadstools are
not merely quite harmless but melte
ver Y kOod eating for those who like
them. The number of these fungus
growths known to be surely poisonous
Is. fortunately, very sinall; still It is
foclish to take a chance, A good rule
is to suspect where you do not know.
There is no simple rule for separating
mushrooms from toadstools if the fungus
family any more than there is a simple
rule for distinguishing the sheep from
the goats in the human family.

is stipposed that the word was In use in
London in the latter part of the six.

by the North Gomm. merchants, 'who
managed the trade on the Baltio and. in
Russia. • t
"Dollar" appeared first in an English
dietionary in 1745. It is A borrowed
word, being the German "Mitten" The
colts issued ba the mint in Joachim -
Altai were called "dnitehimstalers."
When other ntints were establishea the
"joachims" was dropped ahd the tolns
were celled simply "thalere,"
The dollar was adopted by congress at
the unit of our currency on August 5th,
1785. It was to eottairt 875,04 grains of
pure silver; but when the mint was es.
tablished in 1702, the requirenient was
