Far fifty years Caleb Binkley and Maria Sutton had lived neighbors in a double house on a pleasant street of a little old New England village. They had grown up to- gether there, and they had eeen ail the members of their families carried to the graveyard on the hill, leaving them alone in their houses. For twenty years they had lived thus, and their days went by peacefully and happily. One morning in May, Caleb was in the garden back of his house, prodding away with his hoe, and Maria was in her's fixing a flower bed. a fine morning, Maris," called Caleb across the fence. "Beautiful," slid Maria. "Seems ez ef the still was shining jest for our benefit, don't it ?" remarked Caleb, drag- ging a tangled weed from his hoe handle. "Yes, Caleb, I guest it shines down on my side about like it does on yours." Caleb looked up at the blue sky for a mo- ment and then walked over to the fence. "1 say, Maria," he said, I've been think - in' about takin' down this fence. Your pa and mine put it up here forty years ago, but twan't never much use. What do you say to takin' it down?" " Might ez well ez not, I guess, Caleb," assented Maria, without changing her posi- tion. A minute or so later, Caleb, with an axe in his hand, was back again. "Maria," he said, "1 guess ef a thing hez got to be done it might ez well be done right off, hadn't it ?" " I gum it might, Caleb." Maria went on with her digging while Ca- leb hewed and chopped at the wooden fence, and at last the work was done. "It'll make good fire woed, Maria," he said, as he surveyed the wreck, "and if you'll tell me where you want your half put pile it up for you bandy." "it looks summat strange not to see a di- vidin' line between us, don't it, Caleb ?" she remarked, as she stood up and looked across both gardens. I was noticin' that myself, Maria," he said quietly. " rwant no use, was it ?" she inquired, doubtfully gazing at the fence prone on the earth. "Never was," he answered, then he came nearer, " Ain't much more use in two people Iivin' in two houses, either, is there, Maria ?" he said. None that I can see, Caleb," she respond- ed, with a feint glow of color in her cheeks and neck. Caleb_ seemed to be trying to walleye something that would not go down. He at- tempted to speak and failed, and then he tried to go to her, and that was an ignomini- ous failure also. At lest he made a success- ful effort at speech. "Maria-," he said, pulling himself up etreight, "where do you want your half of the old fence piled ?" " Celeb," she almost whispered as she came and laid her hand on his arm, "pile it ttp with yours r." And that was their courtship. puts a twenty-five cent whisk in your hand, und stands you up here.

Excellence is after all a matterof compari- son. A boy of six years, who attends a pri- vate school where prizes are given on all sorts of provocation, but who, as yet, never earned a prize, came home one afternoon and exhibited proudly one of these rewards of merit. "Good !" said his mother; "but how did you get it ?" "I was first in natural history V" said the boy. "Natural history, at your age How did it happen ?" "Oh, they asked me how many legs a horse had." "And what did you say ?" "1 said five," "But a horse hasn't five legs, child !" "1 know it, but all the other fellows 'said six !" Nipped in the Bud. A woman wbo appeared to be an excur- sionist was walking up and down Woodward avenue with a man's hat in one band and a large calfskin wallet in the other, and an of- ficer finally approeched her and asked: " Madam, are you lcesking for anyone ?" " Ob, no," she replied, 'I know right where he is." "Are you in any trouble ?" "No, sir. I never allow anything to trouble me." "But you—you—" "It's just this way sir.

The minister of a Western church not long ago preached a sermon on card-playiog, and at its 31020 he remarked: "Will the brethren now in the house who know how to play poker please hold up their bands ?" He waited a went up. "1 am very much obliged, he said, "But I did not think se many of you bow." There was a sensation in the church but the preacher concluded the services quietly, and afterwarde a committee waited on him. "We came to ask what you meant by say-- ing that we know how to play poker, when in response to your enquiry not one ot us re- sponded," maid the spokesman, hotly. The preacher laughed eoothiiigly. "Don't let your tempers get the better of you, brethren," he replied; "anyone who knows how to play poker isn't going to show his hand until he is forced to, and you know it as well as I do." The committee apologized and reported to the other members and the preacher's salary was raised. minute and not a hand then, knew • Literary Labourers. "Bob" Burdette is a rich man tc-day.

The Philosophy of Tips. A tall, solemn -looking man, wearing a frieze overcoat, came into the lavatory in the Astor House this morning. He had a brand new silk hat, which was set off to advantage by the dilapidated, wet day tiles around him. The sprece,brass-button- ed attendant sprang forward obsequiously, and fell to brushing the frieze coat with deftness and solicitude, The solemn msn let him brash. Then he lighted a cigar, while the gentleman with the brush dodged anxiously around him, " Well, what do you want?" asked the solemn mare The gentle -man with the brush grinned suggest- ively.

The District meeting of the Goderich District was held in the town of Clinton. on the 19th and 20th of May. The ministers of tbe district were all present. Rev. W. Ayers, Id Holmesville, was elected secretary, and Rev. E. A. Fear and Rev. H. Irvine as assistants. The first day's business was especially the examination of ministerial character. Iwo young men were recom- mended as probationers for the ministry, Mr. Albert Tiffin, ol Nile, and Mr. Wm. Lewis Parish. of Chiselhurst, the latter for work in the Northwest. In the evening a very interesting Sunday School meeting was held, when stirring addreeses were given by Revs. 11.J. Fair, H. Irvine and A. Potter; the choir contributed much to the interest of the meeting. On the second day the lay- men were present, and the business of the day was mostly financial, being the reports from the different circuits. In the reading of schedules a marked increase was notice- able on most of the circuits, particularly Nile and Dungannon, which,besides being in advance in the connexienal funds, were able to report an increase of a hundred dollars each in ministerial support. Rattenbury Street Church, of Clinton, headed the list for financial returns. IMPORTANT NOTICES. DICYOLE FOR SALE.—Almost as good as ever, cost 8112. Selling price 840.

More than two hundred years ago a little girl was born at Amsterdam, in Holland, who was named Joanne Koerten. She was a peculiar child in that she cared nothing whatever for play and sport, bat found her greatest delight in making copies of things about her, imitating in wax every kind of fruit, and making on silk, with colored floss, exact copies of paintings which were thought wonderful. But , But after she had become very accomplish- ed in music, spinning and embroidery, she abandoned all these for a still more extra- ordinary art—that of cutting. One is seized with astonishment in looking at her work, llor all that the engraver accomplishes with the graver, she effected with her scissors. kShe executed landscapes, marine views, f ewers. animals, and portraits of people ofi s ch etriking resemblance, that she was for a' time quite the wonder of Europe. She used white papers for her cuttings, placing them over a- black surface, so that the minute epeninge made by her scissors formed the "light and shade. The Czar, Peter the Great, and others of high rank paid her honor. One man high in office vainly offered her a thousand florins for three small cuttings. The Empress of Germany paid her four thousandflorins for a trophy she had cut, bearing the arms of Emperor Leopold, crowned with eagles and surrounded with es garland of flowers. She also cut the Emperor's portrait, which can now be seen in the Royal Art Gallery in Vienna. A great many people went to see her, and she kept a book in which princes anti princesses wrote their names. After she 1ied, which was after she had lived 65 year, her husband, Adrian Block, erected a mon ment to her memory, and had designed upori it the portraits of all these titled visi- tors. Her cuttings were so correct in effect and Ip tasteful, as to give both dignity and value to her work, and constitute her an art- ist Whose exquisite skill with scissors has never before nor since been equaled. So both, her art and her monument were unique, and have kept her "memory green" for now nearly two hundred and fitty years.—Mary Wagner Fisher in Wide Awake. After the fourth ballot Rev.
