SITOR
THE HAUNTED 0 v.EN.
It was in the days of our gra
mothers when there were brick ov
in the land, that. Mr. Hubbard bou
his house and bought it very m
against his wife's will. It was a lon
house and reported to be haunted.
,was next to a grave -yard, which, tho
unused, was not cheerful, and whi
likewise, had. the reputation of a gh
However, Mr. Hubbard did not beli
in ghosts, and was too cheerful to be
pressed by warnings, and never irate
ed to be Ibriely.
"Mrs. Hubbard," he said, when
wife shook her head over _the purehs,
"I got it cheap, and it is a good
. _ You will like it when you get there;
you don't, then talk."
So the house was bought, and into
the Hubbard family went. There w
scarcely a chance for a'ghost to sh
his face in such a family of boys a
girls. Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard count
ten of them, all noisy ones.
Having once expostulated and spok
out her mind as to the house, M
Hubbard gaveaip the point. She srcu
bed and scoured, and tacked down c
pets, and put up curtains, and own
the place was pretty.
As not a ghost appeared for a wee
she made up her mind that there we
no.such iuhabitants. She even beg
not to mind the tombstones. So t
house got to rights at last, and 'baki
day came about. In the press of bu

bread, and they were now tired of

'Urea in her new house.
"For I cannot get up an appetite f
stuff that nobody knows who had th
naaliing of," said Mrs. Hubbard, "an
all puffy and thinly besides."
So into the oven went the bread, an

bounded in.
Tommy was four, and when at tha
age we are prone to believe that an}
.thing will bear our weight. Tommy
therefore, anxious to inspect the news
made, swung himself off his feet b
clutching the edge of the bread -tray
and over it came, loaves and Tomm
and all.
Mrs. Hubbard flew to the rescue an
picked up the loaves. All were duste
and put in the tray again bet one. Tha
lay, bottom upward, under the table.
"A botheringchild to giveme so rano

under the table to get it. "Ah—oh--

And. there on the floor sat Mrs. Hub
bard, screa,ming, wringing her hands
and shaking. her head. The children
screamed in concert. Mr. Hubbard
rushed in trona where he was at work
"What's the matter, mother ?" he
graaped..
Mrs. Hubbard pointed to the bottom
of the loaf lying on her lap.
"Look there and see ?" she said,. "I

taken away from th.era all."
And. he looked and he saw a death's
head and cross -bones, as plainly engrav-
ed as they possibly could be.
"It is an accident," said.Mr. Hubbard.
"Some queer cranks do come, yon
know."

But Mrs. Hubbard was in a troubled
state of mind, as was but natural.
"The stories about the haunted
house were true," she said, and the
spirits have marked: the loaf. I am
afraid it is a Warning."
And, the loaf was put aside, for even
Mr. Hubbard did not dare to eat any of
it. -
Mrs. Hubbard got over her fright at
last, but the news of the awfully mark-
ed loaf spread through R like
wildfire and the people came to HrifY-
bard's ail the week to look at it. It was
a death's head and cress -bones, certain -a
13-T—everyone save that at a glance; but
as to it's meaning people differed,.
Some believed that it was a warning of.
approaching death; ' others thought
that the spirits wanted to frighten the
Hubbards away, and to get posses-
sion of the house again all to them-
.. -
selves.
This latter supposition inspired Mrs.
Hubbard with courage. Finally, being
a have womaa, she adopted the belief,
and when another baking day arrived,
put her loaves into the oven once more,
prepared for cross -bones and not to be
frightened by them.
The loaves baked, as before. They
came out brown and crusty an:das Mrs.
Hubbard turned each in her hand, there
were no cross -bones visible, but on the
last were sundry characters or letters.
What, no one could tell, till there drop-
ped in for a chat a 'certain printer of
• the neighborhood, accustomed to read-
ing things backward.
"Berdeorge !" said he, "that is cur-
ious—r-e-s-u-r-g-a-m—resurgani ; that
is -what is on the loaf—resurgain."
"It is what they put on tombs, isn't
it ?" asked poor Mrs. Hubbard, faintly.
"Well, yes," said Mr. Hubbard, being
obliged to admit it. "But it is not so
batt as cross bones and skulls."
Mrs. Hubbard shook her head.
"It is even solemner," said the little
woman, who was not so good a linguist
as breadraaker.
"I feel confident, William, that I
sh,all soon be resnrgamed, and what will
the dear children do then.
And now that the second loaf was be-
fore her eyes, marked even more awful-
ly than the first, Mrs. Hubbard grew
really pale and thin, and lost her cheer-
fulness.
"1 have a presentiment," she said,
over and over again, "that the third
baking will decide who the warning
belongs to. I believe it is meant fOr me,
and time will show. Dou't you see how
thin I'm growing ?"
And, though Mr. Hubbard laughed, he
also began to be troubled.
The third baking day was one of
&mu, Solemnly as a funeral, the fam-
ily assembled to assist in the drawing.
Five leaves came out markless ; but
one remained.
Mrs. Hubbard's hand trembled, but
she drew it forth. She laid it on a tray.
She turned it softly about. At last she
exposed the lower surface. On it
_were letters printed backward, plain
enough to read this time, and arranged
thus:

"It is me !" cried Mrs. Hubbard. "I
am to go to-morrow—this is the 1st. I
do feel faint—yes, I do. ,It is 1,wful,,

And Mrs. Hubbard fainted way i

If we would have the right kind of a

In the year 1867 I lived in the ro-
mantic town of in Pennsyl-
vania. A stone's tIhrow from my study
window stoocl a splendid tree, its boughs
bent to the ground 'by the weight of
golden apples --My neighbor, Mr. Y.,
and his family were away from home.
Three thieving boys knew this and
k.new also of the ripe fruit. These
boys made frequent raids upon the old
tree, Sundays not excepted. One even-
ing I helloed to them most lustily just
as one was ready to mount the tree and
fill his pockets. How they sneaked
away, trying to get beyond ray sight.
They forgot that "the eyes of the Lord
are in every place." I set myself to
thiuking how many sins were bound up
in that one little thing of taking apples
without the consent of the owner.
1. They broke the commandment
which says, "Thou shalt not steal.",
2. They broke that commandment
which says, "Thou shalt not covet."
3. They broke that oue which says,
"Thou shalt honor thy father and thy
mother."
4. Also that one in regard to "Re-
ember-ing the Sa,bbath day to keep it
holy."
5. I think they violated also th fir t
