carrying a veal and.ham pie; Baker fol-
lowed her with a pot of marmalade;
the Week boy joined the party; the
"At003"—& lad of fifteen, some inches
teller than Alexander—sat beside the
Oriental conqueror ; and the two shows
had supper together and in the apirit of
harraony discueeed their past, their
plans, the resulce of the. day and the
probable fiaancial hervest at Glasgow.
All day the wordy tempest raged and
billows of diatribes bro e against the
_rival tents, but at night Ihe storms sunk
to rest; a cup of tea and a plate of muf-
fins were as oil on the troubled waters,
and all was peace.
On the second day, Quentin, in gala -
array, his mandoliu hanging over his
breast stood outside the tent as pert of
the advertisement of Nicolas ----when
three people different from the ordinary
attendants at tae show came near, a
handsome lady (Quentin at ; once felt
sure a far grander lady than any he had
ever seen), a little blond girl of eight
and a very self-important young gentle-
man of about sixteen. Evidently, they
were wealthy and refined people. Quen-
tin was sure the little giri was far pret-
tier than the wax princess -royal.
"I would like to see a show," cried
the little girl.
I think they are horribly vulgar,"
seid the youth.—"Aunt, why do you
come here ?"
"I -confess, like Janet, I sometimes
fancy a show."
Boy,7? cried Janet, leaning forward
as she held her auat's hand, "are the
wax -works nice ?"
"Beeutiful l" cried Quentin. "Like
live kings and queens."
"As fine as Madame Tussaud's ?"
never saw. them ;.I cannot tell,"
said Quentin.
"And are you the Troubadour? Do
you sing?"
" Janet 1" cried the youth.—" Aunt,
why do you let her speak to such peo-
ple ?"
• " What harm is there in it ?" whis-
pered the lady.
"They're only strolling -folk," , said
the youth, with scorn.
Quentin'aeyes blazed; his high spirit
WaS roused. " Only strolling__ folie_"
He wished he could fly out of eight.
"flash !"-said the lady. "1 shell go
into this show and hear this boy sing; I
am sure he sings well. Will you come
in?"
"No, thank you," said the youthful
aristocrat :. "it is too vulgar."
The lady coolly laughed in his
face :
The world will take some of the
nonsense out of you, young man. By
the time you have been four years at the
University moat of these little- vanities
of yours will have resigned in favor of
sound common sense."
The lad tossed his head, withdrew a
little and began to pace up and. down,
looking scornfully at the plebeian.
crewel.
The lady handed Quentin a shilling:
" Will, you let us sere the show now,
alone ?"
Quentin took them in, and Nicolas be-
gan explaining the wax exhibits. The
little girl accompanied him from figure
to figuie ; the lady seemed more imer-
eeted in Quentin, whose heart was burn-
ing with indignation againat the young
man's scorn, and with bitter envy of
him, for he had divined from the lady's
words that the youth was bound foe
that acme of his own deeires, a Univers-
ity. He was ready to enter a Univere-
ity 1 What years muet pass before
Quentin could reach such heights, if,
indeed, Fate should ever be , so kind !
And this supercilious youth Lwith the
dapper boats, the shining troadcloth
clothes, kid gloves, cambric handker-
chief, gleaming -watch-eh:ilia—all these
glories and opportunities came to him
by inheritance ! What a strange strong
thing is inheritance !
Quentin looked down, but over his
face passed the sombre shadows of these
bitter thoughts. The lady said to her-
self that he was a very handsome boy,
also sensitive, as elle read in those mo-
bile changing lines of his face. She
spoke sottly :
"I am sorry my nephew talked so
rude,' but he is not bad -hearted; time
will cure him of these little vanities.
Are these your people here? Do
you belong to the show? Will you fol-
low it?"
No, lady," said Quentin ; "1 am
only working ray way to Glasgow, where
is a learned man that will teach me. I
shall not be a shownsan, but a man of
science."
"That is well," said the lady, with a
private smile, as she saw that Quentin
too had his little vanities. " Do you
like Eider= better than music ?"
"It is a higher life to live for, my
master aa-ya."
"1 should like to hear you sing," said

his experience: he himaelf felt an apti-
tude tor this busy, iutense world into
which he had fallen.
Going on an errand to buy groceries
for Margery, Quentin saw on a corner
the disdainful young gentleman who had
been at Dunblane. He would gladly
have ignored him, but it was his duty to
tell him that he had the lady's kerchief.
Quite ignorant that, as he himself was
in an old flannel shirt and grey corduroys
and carried a basket on his arm, he was
unfit to speak to the dainty young gen-
tleman, Quentin marched boldly and
familiarly toward him • the young man
turned away haughtily. Quentin, in
despair, polled off his blue bonnet and
waved it at him • full of disgust, the
young prig vanished through an arcade.
The fact wee, if Quentin had given no
sign, the nephew would have accosted
him, haviag been.lsent out to seek him ;
but when Quentin shovted himself so
free and easy, the aristocrat said his
aunt's predilections for common people
must be restrained, BO he went to the
hotel and said there "was no sign of
that boy at the fair." He did not say
he had seen him in the street. The
little Janet being sick and her aunt ap-
prehending some fever, neither of these
two appeared on the street for two
weeks; then Quentin was safe in Glas-
gow, end they, merely passing through
that city, went' on to London. So
Quentin etill kept the kerchief. -
Stirling fair was like other fairs, only
the shows were more , numerous, and
they remained a week. Then the
"Baker's Sow" and the "Rogers
Show" and the "Penny Theatre" and
the "Pantomime Theatre" and the
"Prince of Wales Shooting -Gallery"
made a long procession of vans dotting
the road to Glasgow.

Celebrating New Year's.
A year awl last New Year's, writes a
correspondent, a very amusing' event
occurred in my poultry -yard, where I
had a flock of seven geese, which I was
planning to keep through the winter.
fhat morning I fed thetn, as usual, giv-
ing them two quirts of corn taken from
a barrel in the shed. During the fore --
noon I had occasion to pass through the
farmyard, and to my dismay found the
old gander stretched on -the snow, ap-
parently dead. The geese, too, appear-
ed unusually dumpish, as if other
deaths might be expected in a short
time.
-Annoyed at the loss of the gander, I
resolved to make tbe damages as light
as possible, and so picked him up, carri-
ed him to the house, and proceeded to
pick off his feathers. This done, I left
his body at the back door to be carried
off by one of the men.
In the middle of the afternoon I
heard a most unusual honking and
squawking in .the barnyard, and ran
out to see what was the matter.
Matter - enough, surely! There was
the old gander whom I had stripped and
left for dead, strutting about among the
geese, who had recovered from their
morning's stupidity,and evidently didn't
like the novel appearance of their for-
mer leader and master." They were
chasing the poor, shivering, naked crea-
ture about the yard, giving him spite-
ful pecks at every opportunity. .
I laughed till the tears came at the
comical sight. Then I caught the poor
creature, carried him to the house, mild
clothed him, in red flannel, which I
sewed on. He Was a funny -looking gan-
der.
The geese liked him little better than
befOre,and pecked and chased hiin so bad-
ly that I kept the unfortunate biped by
himself fora few days, till he had be-
come a little accustomed to his red flan-
nel plumage. After that he had little
difficulty in recovering his fernier dig-
nity and prestige.
What had caused the seeming death
of the poor gander was soon apparent.
The mischief was in the corn barrel.
One of the farm laborers, an 'eellent
fellow, save that once in three or four
months hewould have' a little bitof &good
time," as he expressed it, had bidden
his bottle of whisky, with which he in-
tended to celebrate New Year's, in the
corn barrel over night. The cork came
out, the contents escaped and saturated
the corn, and my unfortunate geese had
the " little bit of a good time.
It was an amusing yet pertinent
temperance lesson to the man, and it was
six months before he again indulged his
appetite. I wish I could write that he
completely reformed, but hereditary
taint and habit -were too strong to be
thus overcome. The gander wore his
flannel suit all winter, and was spoken
of ever after as the "red flannel gan;
der."—Youth's Companion.
When Dancing is Wrong.
If you are wise, if you hope that the
future holds much for you, you will
learn to be particular as to your partner
in dancing. Dance with no man with
whom you have only a ball -room ac-
-Ruaintance, and if you really are
janxious to gain the respect of the peo-
/pleein your own set, you will nutnber
among partners only your own brothers,
or some very intimate friends.
It's all very well to say there is no
harm in dancing. 1 There isn't. But
there is hartn in heving about you, a
sweet pure girl, kept as much aspossi-
ble from the wickedness of the world,
the arm of a man who may be a profli-
gate, and not possessthe first instinct
of a gentleman. He may, as you say,
dance divinely, but even for a partner
in a round dance, more than that is

"Bury Me In Kirkbride."
Dr, John Ker, in one of the letters
included in,the volume just issued by
Mr. David Douglas, writes :--" To make
amends for this bare list, 1 subjoin
some verses from a local poet, whom I
discovered at Sanquhar, last autumn,
Robert Wanlock (Reid). There is in
that neighborhood, in a lonely little
glen on a steep hillside, the ruin of 4
small church called Kirkbride, within
and itround which are buried a cpumber
of the old Covenanters, among them
the "black Macmichael,", a famed
swordsman, who crossed weapons suc-
cessfully with the " bluidy Cle,verse'
The spot is Sacred to the people. The
soughing of the wind on a summer Sab-
bath seems the Bound of psalms. An
old man, when he was dying, said,
"Bury me in Kirkbride, for there's
much of God's redeemed dust lies there,"
and on this saying theare
verses
founded:
the lady.
Quentin stepped back a little, touched
a note or two and sang "The Land o'
the Leal." As he sang the lady turned
away her face; then Quentin observed
that, though she had not seemed to be
in mourning -weeds, she wee vested all
in black. When he finished, she sud-
denly laid her hand on his head with a
caressing motion, then passed from the
tent, the -blonde child by her side. Look-
ing down, Quentin saw that she had
dropped a handkerchief. He picked it
up; he had never touched eo delicate a
fabric, and a faint aroma stOle from it.
Re went out.to look for the lady ; he
turned her and there, but she had van-
ished in the crowd. And it was time
for the "Rogers Show to open. He
looked for the strangers that day, and
the next ; he did not see them again,
and he put the kerchief with his two
etaer treasures, the psalm -book and the
housewife, in a little silk bag which
Margery had made for him,
On Saturday night Nicolas packed up
his show. On Sunday, Alexander the
Great had menaged, by filching a shil-
ling from Thornati) pocket and suborning

ful girt, and was found lying under the
bed, a deplorable little effigy of intexi-
cation. Quentin es ent to church and
looked for the lady, but he did not find
her. fie read in the Pilgrim's Progrees,

solable over her microscopic drunkard,

pathy with Margery.
On Monday morning the chief ot
police in Dunblane received a telegram:
"Will you tell a lad who sings as Trou-
badour in one of the shows to go to the
Prince's Hotel, Stirling, and ask for
Mrs. Douglass?" But when Quentin
was sought for, he was gone; for the
Rogers show rolled out of Dunblane at
one o'clock in the morning, and was by

Going Back Home. -
An officer of the army who has long
been intimately acquainted with the
Indian tribes on our Western border
said lately, "The red man's conception
of religious truths is usually singularly
fine and profound. 1 met,a few months
ago, for example, an Omaha chief, who
had ruled his tribe with wisdom and
justice for many years, and who now,
blind, and the victim of an incurable
disease, was quietly awaiting death."
"Why are you so content ?" asked
the officer. "Pain and old age are not
good things."
The aged chief was silent a while be-
fore answering, according to the Indian
habit when it grave question is discuss-
ed, and then said:
"The bird that builds its nest on the
tree neeemy. wigwam in summer leaves
it when winter is coining, and travels
thousands of miles to the southward;
but in the spring it will come beck
across mountains and rivers to that very
same nest.
"The dsh that is spawned here in this
little creek will go down to the Missis-
sippi to the greatigult• but in the spring
it will find its way back—back to its na-
tive waters.
"How do such creatures know the
way? They have no map, 110 guide.
The Great Spirit puts something in
their hearts' to draw them back to their
homes.' .And He has not forgotten to
put something in each man's heart that
draws him, all his life tong up to his
home. I am coming near to Mine."Shall
I not be glad ?"
If this poor Indian had found such
comfort in his faith in hia God, and
Heaven, does it not become us who are
Christians to remember that life at the
worst is but a journey homeward
through a beautiful world, in ivhich
there is noble work for us to do, and in
which all geed and brave souls, the
angels and God Himself, are our friends
and bear us company?

Management of, Animals.
The vices of horses and cattle are
often the result of bad management.
would suggest the following rules for
farmers and ‘feeders.
1. Keep cattle in warm clean, well
ventilated stables and warm,
them
plenty of pure water.
2. Keep cattle quiet. Allow no bark-
ing dogs, or noisy, boisterous persons
around the stables. Excited animals
diminish in flesh and weight.
3. Feed three times a day, nutritious
food sprinkled with flaxseed meal and a
little salt.
4. Keep mangers and troughs clean.
Cattle dislike food which has been
breathed upon.
5. Stimulate their appetite by occas-
ionally changing their food.
6. Handle wild cattle gently. Milch
cows should never be beaten with club
or stool.
7. Save both urine and Tenure from
stables; and you will secure double price
for the feed.—Ohio Fernier.
