THE RIGHT SORT OF WIFE.
BY MRS. GEORGE AROHIBAL3p,
n
Do come and see us," wrote y friend
Maggie,t, we are beautifully situated. Our
house is old-fashioned, and I.know you will
like that. And•there is a cemetery- with
over a thousand graves just across the
road."
I read the above queer postscript several
,times, with 'varying emotions. 1 anew it
was written in simplicity as a real induce-
ment to the visit I had so often been urged
to make. Yet I objected to the opinion
evidently held that my love for graveyards
would make me eager to tarry next' door to
one.
I objected so much that my intended trip
to Maggie's came near being, at least, post-
poned. Yes, I seriously thought of writing
to say I would have come had she bought a
house in a more cheerful neighborhood, But
I didn't. For my trunk -was partly packed
before the letter carne.
The house was really beautifully situated
in the village of Brookton, and, strange as
it may seem, the cemetery added to its ad-
vantages. It was an old square cemetery
which no longer was used for interments ex-
cept that once in a long time some former
inhabitant, dying away from the scenes of
his youth, was brought back to lie among
his fathers. The later citizens of Brookton
buried two miles away in a 'larger, grander
spot.
The old cemetery was full of shade from
the beautiful, great trees within it, and on
the bright spring morning after my arrival
in Brookton there was -such a chorus of song
from the branches as would delight any
true lover of Music. Looking out, I deter-
mined that my first walk should .be in the
cemetery.
"Ii+.knew you would want to go to the grave-
yard the first thing," said Maggie, tying on
her slat sun -bonnet. How natural it looked.
She had worn that sun -bonnet en all sun-
bonnet occasions ever since I could remem-
ber, and the gingham parasol which she
next proceeded to raise, had accompanied
the sun -bonnet whenever gingham parasols
were proper.
To get into the cemetery we had to go up
a flight of steps outside the fence, and clown
a - flight inside. This brought us into a
grass -grown road. through which the mourn.
ful funeral trains used to pass. Now, only -
foot passengers travelled this way.
But, though disused, the burial place was
well kept, as village cemeteries go. The
thick grass was not over -long, and the cree -
in -g Charlie and myrtle on the old mounds
was not over -riotous. Here and there in
'discarded crockery from many pantries were
bouquets. They were fresh enough to make
the passerby sure the dead were not forgot-
ten.
From childhood I have never neglected t?
look at old headstones whenever they were
accessible, and many a quaint tale have
heard of the long dead. Perhaps. nontj
quainter than the tale told that morning by
Maggie', She told it while we sat on a
rough seat near two brown stones erected
in memory of Nathan Bruce and Jemima"
his wife.
The stones were precisely alike. They
bore urns, against which leaned,presurnably,
lachrymose mourners, whose countenances
were draped with roomy handkerchiefs held
to place by Iong and genteel hands.
The stories told by the inscriptions were
fuller than modern tombstones give, and in-
formed the reader that Nathan was born be-
fore •and died after Jemima, though he sur-
vived her but one day. I do not remember
the date of her death, but Jemima was born
in 1793.
Here is the story of the pair, told to ins

States Supreme Court.
ested in a Criminal Investigation.
A school boy in his fourteenth year was
an. important witness in a recent murder
ease. It was an election crime committed
iinder _conditions of political excitement.
The , boy stepped. forward briskly and
turned toward the jury a face at once intel-
ligent and ingenuous. The counsel for the
accused murderer sought to disconcert him
at the outset by asking,him if he understood
the nature of an oath.
The boy without an instant's hesitation
replied "It means to tell just what you
know and nothing else."
If the lad had been trained in a law -
school, he could not have given a better
reply, Tlae jury exchanged significant
glances, and everybody in the courterooth
was impressed with the lad's sincerity.
The details of the murder need not be re-
peated here. Neither is it necessary to ex-
plain the hearing of the boy's testimony.
What was remarkable was the effect pro-
duced by the little fellow's quiet narrative
of an exciting scene, following as it did
many contradictory versions given by parti-
zans of both sides. _
He was self-possessed, and told with sim-
plicity what he had seen. Every one in the
court -room was impressed with the fact
that after much irreconcilable testimony,
here at last was the truth from the lips of a
child.
In the cross-examination, the counsel for
thea,ce use d murderer sought to confuse theboy
in a harassing way, but met with no suc-
cess. The lad never swerved from his story.
The only effect of cross-examination was to
increase the value of the testimony, by re-
vealing the witness' straightforward charac-
ter and regard for the truth.
There was a round of applause when the
bright boy was excused froth the witness'
"The best witness that ever I saw !" ex-
claimed an old lawyer. "He did his work
like a man, and an honest one, too !"
The verdict was not Withheld, and the
boy had done much to secure it. -
This boy was neither precocious in intelli-
gence, nor conscious of the importance of
his story. He was simply a truthful little
fellow whose instincts were right. That
was the secret of the manliness which ina
pressed the jury and court-room.—Youth's

A good story is told of a purse -proud old
nobleman who was travelling through the
rural districts 9f Sweden. In that country
the people do not have quite as much respect
for the titled aristocracy as in some other
localities on the continent.
One day the nobleman came rolling up to
a country tavern, and as he stopped his car-
riage he called out in an imperious tone:
"Horses. landlord --horses at once !"
"I am very much pained to inform you
that you will have to wa4 over an hour be-
fore fresh horses can be 'brought up," replied
the landlord, calmly.
"How !" violently exelahned the noble-
man. "This to me ! My man, I demand
horses immediately !"
Then, observing the fresh, sleek -looking
ones which were being led up to another
carriage, he continued :
"For whom are those horses?"
"They were ordered for this gentleman,"
replied the landlord pointing to a tall, slim
individual, a few paces distant.
"I say, my man," called out the nobleman,
"will you let me have those horses if I pay
you a liberal bonus ?"
"No," answered the slim man, "I intend
to use them myself." -
"Perhaps you are not aware who I am,"
roared the now thoroughly agitated and
irritated nobleman. -"I am, sir, Field Mar- .
shall Baron George Spaare, the last and only
one of my race."
"I am. very glad to hear that," said the
slim man, stepping into his carriage, "It
would be a, terrible thing to think that there
might be more of you coming, I am inclined
to think that your race will be a foot race."
