The afternoon wore away—Very- went on calmly. "This is a great deal worse than a fuss," said Joe, rest - Early the next morning Deacon Spring harnessed Jerry into the beet wagon and drove off. Ile was away all day. Just at sundown, as the boys were hanging over the gate and watching the wad, they caught sight of an approach- ingteam. They eyed it listlessly at first; then Frank suddenly exclaimed: "Why, that's pa 1" "No, it isn't !,' declared Joe. "Can't, you see that's a white horse with a regu- lar huckleberry trot ?" "It's pa, anyway," persisted Frank, taking a long look. What can have happened to Jerry ?" "Ah, Prank ! said Joe, suddenly clatching his brother by the arm, "you don't believe he coald, have—" "Could have what?" asked Frank, hastily, as Joe stopped and groaned. "Swapped Jerry for that old plug ?" There was a howl of anguish from Frank as the horrible certainty began to creep over him. They were miserably silent for a moment. Then Fra.nk burst out : "If there's anything I hate, it's a white horse 1 "Knee -sprung too !" said Joe. As the Deacon drove into the yard, he drew up beside them an said: Come round to the barn, boys; I want you to take Jerry out." As he alighted from the wagon he turned -to the boys, who had followed slowly and said, with a look which made them wish they were under the hay again : " Yea% find this a very steady ani- mal, boys. Then he walked into the house. The bays unhitched the. traces with- out looking at each other; then, as Frank led out the meek, mild eyed beast from between the shafts, he muttered - through his teeth: ' "I'll never call that old rack -a -bones Jerry. I'll be hanged if I will." "Nor I," said Joe. Then, the same thought striking them both at the same moment, with one voice they exclaimed: "Oh, why didn't we come home from Perryville the other way 1" • The Poor Man's Sheaf. BY E. E. REXFORD. He saw the wheat fields waiting All golden in the sun, And strong and stalwart reapers Went by hint one by one. "Oh, could I reap in ha/jest !" His heart made bitter cry. "-I can do nothing, nothing, So, alas, am I." Al eve a fainting traveler Sank down beside his door; A cup of cool, sweet water To quench his thirst he bore. And when, refreshed and strengthened, The traveler went his way, Upon the poor man's threshold A golden wheat sheaf lay. When came the Lord of harvest, He cried: "Oh, Master kind, One sheaf I have to offer, But that I did iwt bind. I gave a cup of water To one athirst, and he Left at my door, in going, This sheaf I offer thee." Then said the Master softly "Well pleased with this am L One of my angels left it With thee as he was passing by. Thou mayst not join the reapers Upon the harvest plain, But he who helps a brother Binds sheaves of richest grain." crOwded one. %Yhen, at the conclusion, the people catisemouring down the stairs into the vestibule, a blockade was formed, and ward was passed along to those in the rear—to the consternation of the unwise villains who had failed to provide them- selves with umbrellas—that it was "raining." One gentleman, being concerned about the bonneta of his wife and daughters, was talking to the' accommodating sex- ton about the church being kept open while he hurried home for umbrellas and waterproofs. "But let us see if the rain is very mach," said the wife. Making their way, with great diffi- cUlty, through the crowded vestibele into the street, they saw a group of large boys standing on the outer edge of the sidewalk under shelter of two huge um- brellas, while overhead a few stars and a pale new moon were peeping through the flying clouds. "Why, it doesn't rain at all!" said one of the daughters; whereat the large boys indulged in a chuckle which swelled into a ohorus of laughter as an ancient couple emerged from the church door under an umbrella, which the old gentleman held carefully over the head of the old lady until they were lost sight of in the dark- ness. The people slowly and carefully came out of the building; those who had umbrellas generally opening a and then shutting them as soon as they realized the state of affairs. But, to the un- disguised satisfaction of the boys, it proved a most tedious dispersion.—The Fortfolio. editor of he Church Journal and Councillor, Judge and Colonel in the new city militia. Taylor ministered to the brothers Joseph and Hiram Smith in Carthage jail, and was shot in four places by the mob which assassinated the prisoners. Next he went to Eng- land as a missionory and returning in 1847 organized his expedition with Brig- ham Young which resulted in the foetid- ing of the 1%1ormon colony at Salt Lake City. He was also prominent in the formation of the Mormon battallion of 500 men enlisted to serve in the Mexican war. Subsequent to his arrival in Salt Lake City Taylor was sent on many foreign missions, notably to Great Britain, France and Germany, and in later years published a Mormon paper in New York city. Ile was elected to many territorial offices in 'Utah. He was formally elected president of the Mormon church in 1881. President Taylor was a handsome man in his time; with dark complexion, six feet in height, and 9f commanding carriage. He was an eloquent speaker and a prolific writer on Mormon subjects. Only a year ago he concluded, an elaborate An Exam- ination into the Doctrine of the Atone- ment of Jesus Christ."

At the seaside resorts. bathing , is the chief amusement, but it is a far_ different thing from bathing in America. The Frenchman attires himself in sumptuous rObes, with Turkish slippers, a cigarette and eyeglasses. Then he promenades along the beach with the air of a Roman emperor. Occasionally he allows the water to dash about his ankles, and even to his knees, but never above that point. After an hour or two of such elegant attitudinizing he retires with the air of a, conqueror. The French lady who !bathes invariably wears high -heeled Owes lacedf almost to her knees. Her bathing -dress is made with long -trained 'skirts, which she holds above the reach of the waves with one hand, while -with the other she holds a fan and smelling - bottle. - She is always accompanied by a maid who holds a parasol over her head. She allows the water to dash about her ankles, and wet her shoes. But as she wears oiled -silk stockings, her feet do not become wet. Old -Time Literary ,Men.

CHURCH—FORMERLY WELL -X NOWN IN TORONTO. The annouticement of the death .of Elder John Taylor, President of the Mormon church, will make, the follow- ing biographical sketch interesting :— When Brigham Young died in 1877,, Elder John Taylor succeeded . him as head of the Mormon charch, or as thy called it -the "Church of Jesus Christiof Latter Day Saints." John Taylor was born at Milnthrop, Westmoreland County, England, in 1808, and was in his eightieth year at the time of his re- ported death. In his boyhood he re- ceived a good education and early in life became a Methodist preacher. When 24 years of age he came to Canada, where his father was settled two years before. Shortly. after his arrival he married Miss Leonora Cannon, Manx lady, who was visiting as companion to the wife of the governor. 'CONSPICUOUS IN TOROSTo. Mr. Taylor soon became conspicuous as a religious teacher and reformer in Toronto, and wae associated with a num- ber of thoughtful men and women who, dissatisfield with the existing forms of religion, were: seeking Bible truths sby all legitimate means. While this was going on, Parley P. Pratt, one 'of the Twelve Apostle -s of the Latter Day Saints, visited Toronto, eonverted" sev- eral to his belief, among them Mr. and Mrs. Taylor who were baptised in the new faith. Mr. Taylor was very short- ly after ordained an elder, and given charge of the -churches in the Canadian, and adjacent districts. In a short time - he visited the main body of the church to which he allied himself in K Ohio. .TOE SMITI(S ERsONA Here he becatne Conspicuous for his zeal and courage in defending the tenets of Mormonism and his personal friend- ship for Prophet Joe Smith. Ile 'went with the church to Missouri whenehe was ordained one of the Ts.velee Apostles and suffered expulsion with the rest of the Mormons from that state in 183S. Then he went with the fugitive Smith to Illinois, assisted in the buildiag- of the city of Nauvoo, where he became 11 i glda nder , who had commi tfed a furiaus assault on H. fellow -country- man, was apprehended and taken before the magistrate.
