"Old Speckle talked to me the other day," said grandmother, "1 Mean she made me understand what she wanted." '.1111iy, grandma 1 How clid she do it?" Ancl Alice's oyes grew big and round, 'It was when Mr' Gray was mak- eg the new fence,. 1 heard a noise at the ltitelldn"door, and when I opened it there was'Spoeklo, brist- ling her feathers and cackling away ap a great rate. Slie turned at once and went around the house as though she knew I would. follow," r "0 grandma!" interrupted Alice. Dict- you V. "Of course," said ]Ter grandmo- ther, "She went as fast as her hen legs could carry her down to the fence, and when I got there I found two of her little chickens had fallen into a post -hole while --Mr. Gray had gone to his dinner:" "Wasn't it nice that you found them?" said Alice, with a sigh of satisfaction, "I do b'lievo- hens can talk, if they can make people understand them so well." "There's the rooster coming M- k the yard,"..said • grandmother. "Let's watch him and se if he says how-dy-do." It certainly looked like it. The old fellow stalked up to the hens, who stood very still and seemed to be listening with great attention. In a minute he turned round and went out into the lane, both hens following him. `O, grandma," said Alice, "he diel say something, I know he did! I'm going to see if 1 can find out what he told them." "I'll go; too,'.' said grandmo- ther, as she put down the peas. Alice ran ahead. "Come quick! Come quick!" she called, as she looked into the field on the other' side of the lame! 'They're having a party !" Sure enough, they were having a feast of worms. It was plainly to be seen that the rooster had found a quantity of them .where the emend ,.led been freshly plowed, and had told the hens about it. "P'r'aps they think it is a candy - shop," said .Alice, "and p'r'aps the rooster is treating them, just as Uncle Dick did :me yesterday." "I shouldn't wonder," said grandmother. WHAT THEY FOUND. "Why l" exclaimed Uncle Jack, as he looked from the window one morning. Hal and Kathie ran to see in a hurry. "I do believe it's an owl l" said Uncle jack. "Whore's his heads" inquired Hal. TJnole jack tapped en the window, and sure enough, up came a little head, two bright eyes blinked and winketl at the phildren, and they saw a real live owl ! "Couldn't we catch him?" asked Hai, in a whis- per. "I'd so like to have an owl, Uncle Jaek." The owl rustled his feathers and put his head on one side, stretched out -his leg and "Oh, he's down the fireplace !" shouted Hal, and in a second he was running down the stairs, thump 1 thump ! thump 1 Uncle Jack and. Kathie ran, too. There he sat, a very,sooty, black little owl, indeed, right in the mid- dle`of the fireplace. He blinked and winked more than ever, and rustled his feathers all over his fate little body. "Let's put a basket over him, and Uncle Jack can take him out," sug- gested Hal. Uncle Jack's eyes twinkled as he answered, "Well, run and' get the basket." Hal did run, and was back again in a minute. "Now get him, quick, Uncle Jack 1" exclaimed Hal, ander his breath. "Hoot 1 Hoot 1" Both children rushed from the library, and never stopped til]Jhey' reached their mother's room. "Have you got him 1" called Kathie, as Uncle Jack calve up. the Stairs. "He's flown up the chimney, said Uncle Jack, laughing. "He was% too wise an owl to let Uncle Jack catch him, even with fur gloves en." "I'm most glad,". said Kathie "for he scared me—awful!" "Girls are always scared 1" an- nl+erod Hal, in a lofty tone. And he wondered why Uncle Jack laugh- ed so load and long. -Youth's Com. panion, AN END IN VIEW.

Which of all domestic virtues is most essential to a happy married life? The ability to keep one's tem- per, beyond all question. There is nothing which lends more to -mis- ery, not only ,for its possessor, but also for those about him, than an ungovernable and unreasonable temper. No one is worse to live with than an ill-tempered man, except, perhaps, an ill-tempered woman. Bad-tempered people completely spoil the lives of those who associ- ate with them. The feeling of strain is ever present; 0110 never knows just when the storm will break, al- though apparently, the;weather, metaphorically, is ` 'set .fair." Life in these circumstances becomes a burden almost beyond bearing. There's no. : use saying "Get thee behind me, Satan," when you put him in your hip pocket. Mrs. Robert E.

Pleasant Point, Ont., Nov, 10— (Special).—That most of the ills that the aufferiug women of. Canada have to boar are due to clisoedered Kidneys, and that the natural cure for them is Dodd's Kidney Pills, is once more shown in the case of Mrs. Merril C. Clarke, a well-known re- sident of this place and a promin- ent member of the Salvation Army, Mrs, Clarke is always readyto give her experience for the benefit of her suffering sisters.• "My sickness commenced twenty years ago with the change of lffe, says Mrs. Clarke. "My health was in a bad state. Water would run from: my head which would make me faint. ' When I came out of the fainting spells • I took fits. I was bloated till I' was clumsy. The pain I suffered was awful. It would: go in my feet and then to my head. Many doctors attended me, and I tried many medicines, but nothing gave me relief till I used Dodd's Kidney Pills. The first box strap- ped the fits and seven boxes cured me completely." Every suffering woman should use Dodd's Kidney Pills. '!hey make strong, healthy Kidneys, and the woman who has good Kidneys is safe -guarded against those terrible pains that make miserable the lives of so ,many women. rT�� A CENTURY OF MARRIAGE. A ceremony which very probably has never had its equal in the his- tory of anyone tip to this time was celebrated lately in the little vil- Iage. of Isonbalgi; in Hungary. It took place to commemorate the mar- riage of the couple Szetnmari, unit- ed for exactly 100 years. The hus- band is 120 years of age and the wife 116. Their descendants count together more than 250 persons. The two old people, who inhabit a quite modest little cottage, are very much loved by their neighbors, who surround them with every possible care. They are, however, almost quite blind and deaf. They pass their time away mostly in sleeping. Still, occasionally the old man smokes a litle pipe with evident satisfaction, and enjoys a glass of wine. The queerest thing about their whole life is that this old cou- ple have never quitted their vil- lage—they were both born there. Their life has been passed there quietly and peacefully, and never has a wish arisen in their minds to know anything of the vast world which lies beyond their narrow ho- rizon. A Wide Sphere of Usefulnesry.— The consumption of Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Oil has grown to great proportions. Notwithstanding the fact that it has now been on the market for over thirty-one years, its prosperity is as great as ever, and the demand for it in that period has very greatly increased. It is beneficial in all countries, and wher- ever introduced fresh supplies are constantly asked for.

Pills of Attested Value. --Parma. lee's Vegetable Pills are the result of careful study of the properties of certain roots and herbs, and the action of such as sedatives and lax- atives on the digestiv_ apparatus. The success the compounders have met with attests the value of their work. These pillshave been recog- nized for many years as the best cleansers of the system that can be got. Their excellency was recogniz- ed from the first and they grow more popular daily. WOMANISH. The average woman is not satis- fied to do as she pleases unless she can make other people do as she pleases. Holloway's Corn Cure destroys all kinds of corns and warts, root and branch. Who, then would en- dure them with such a cheap and effectual remedy within reach? THERE ARE REASONS. The average woman can put up convincing arguments wily a man's overcoat should last four winters and why her bonnet is only good for four weeks. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pilis owe their singular effectiveness in oaring Rheumatism, Lumbago and 8datiee to their power of stimulating and strengthening the kidneys. They enablethese organs- to thoroughly filter frim the blood the brie acid ,the: product of waste matter). which gets into the .;Dints and muscle's and onuses thoea painful diseases.
