He lived . with his father and mother, just across the flats at the foot of West Hill, in the edge of the big woods. You know, all this region was pioneered late, and although nearly everything was cleared up on this side of th valley and the pine timber had long been etit off the fiats, there was a heavy growth of mixed hard- wood and hemlock to the west that stretch- ed away hack I don't know how many miles. Here and there in the little i” openings" on the side of the West Hill log houses were still to be seen, and the 'elite living in them were sometimes pretty primitive. The Dunnings were probably the most account of of the lot. They lived in a little shanty old Rufe had knocked together out of *dabs given him by the saw mill boss. They had only a little pstoh of ground, and they lived on what they raised, the fish they caught, and what they trapped and shot. They didn't steal, as I knowof, but the were all mortal shiftless, and young Rufe was worse than either 11. father or his mother. In fact, he was so -all -fired lay, if I must put it that way, that even the old Man felt discouraged about him. Young Rufe was 22 before anybody sus pected that he could possib y have any am hition at all. But one day he saw Kitty Sylvester, who was the daughter of the first manager of the big ,Barkley estate. Old man Barkley -the grandfather of the present Barkley, who never comes near the estate -had just put the place in a mana- ger's hands, and moved. away with his fam- ily. Now; Kitty was a real sensible, go- ahead girl. She knew the Sylvesters were as good an anybody around the Corners, if not a le-etle better, and she tried to live up to the family reputation in all ways. When a girl, her mother had beeu fawns for the work she could do,and Kitty wasnotet bit be- hind. Every morning in the winter she was up early and got breakfast by candlelight. All day long she wove carpet, or quilted comforters, or spim stockhtg yarn, or did something else that counted. Every morn- ing in the summer she was up with the sun, and every day when it went down she had churned and worked more butter or made more cheese, or in some other way did more work than any woman anywhera round could do. And she was th� savingest. girl in the county. Everybody Haid she was the smartest young woman going, and, natur- ally, she was oorusidered a bighly desirable catch. But she held heraelf mighty shy of them all for awhile, and, it was. regularly given out that no young man need ever think of keeping company with Kitty Syl- vester who .wasn't fully her match, Both at working and savin . So when it was noised about that young Rufe,of all the world, had got him a pair of fine bootie; a ruffled shirt, doeskin pantaloons,and a broadcloth coat, and 'had begun to aine up ta Kitty, there was a general uproar. Folks couldn't be- lieve it at first, but it Wasn't anywhere near as hard to swallow as that came after- ward. You see, the outgiving ;that had been made about the kind of chap Kitty's hus- band would have to be had shifted the young fellows out a who' e lot. Most of them were willing to workt and willing to eave, and they all admired ;Kitty, for she was as good looking as she was industrious and frugal, but her standard was so high it scared the boys, and beaux got to be mighty seldom on the estate. Now, as it turned out; Shiftless - Rufe thought more of Kitty than any of the others, and at the very beginning she gave him a little encouragement. Not much, to be sure, but enough to reform hini com- pletely. He was naturally mighty bashful when he called at the big house, all fixed,up in elothes he wasn't used to, and Kitty at first pretended she didn'b lunderstand that he had come to see her. , "I'll call my father," she said, "Per- haps you mat to talk about cutting some cordwood.'} " No," said Rufe, dirietly, " I want to know if I can't keep company with you ?" The girl was startled by his failure . to beat about the bush, but she answered quite as directly : "Certainly not. You're , too lezy, to be allowed to keep company with any one." Then an idea flashed thiough her mind. ".Bat if you'll out cordwood a Whole year every day but Sunday and holidays you may come and see me -.'just once. Here comes father, and you'd better make arrangements to cuefor him on shares." To Kitty's eurprise Shiftless Rufe ▪ stood his ground, and when her father came in started at (glee to discuss the proposed ar- rangement. ft, 4 Wal, Mist' Sylvester," said Rufe, grasping the old man's hand "1 ain't never been no great hand for work, but I must i have a chance to keep tom any with Kitty, and she says I may come tied see her after rVIS chopped cordwood a year. It won't be no fun, but I must have Kitty, and if I got to work to git her, 0 w er, lien I have, and th,11. that'sall there is abo t it.', Sylvester was at . first I inclined to be angry at Kitty for %riffling , with Rufe, but concluded to humor the situation and, bid - 'ding Kitty leave the room, toldtheyoung man that he was ready to make a bargain with him. "You can cut cordwood off the estate on shares, Rufe of course, if you want to, and I'll set aside some trees ;right near your father's shanty on the other side of the fiats. But you want to take off them fine boots and them doeskin pants, and that there broadcloth coat, and you don't want to put them on again till you've worked hard a whole year. You're too shiftless to be al- lowed to think a single minute about Kitty, now,. and I suppose you always feared her, " You needn't say no more, Mist' Syl- vester," put in Shiftless Rufe. "But can't I see Kitty again just long enough to say good -night?" " Yes," said the old man, "and I'll tell her we've made the bargain she sug- gested." Then he called Kitty into the room. As she entered she noticed for the first time that Rufe, dressed up, wasn't at all bad looking, and that he seemed twice the man he had been before. She kept perfect silence till her father had fini hed. Then she reached out and took Rufe's big soft paw in her own small hand -a hand that was cal - PROSTRATED, EillAUSTED, No SLEEP—No REST.

Dunning before, and the title scared him far more than the notion of working (wary day for twelve long months. From the time he left the big house that night he wee fit to drop the title " shiftless." Next morning, as soon as it was light, the sharp ring of his axe was heard across the 'valley, bitting out the chips as he chopped down the first tree of his year long Writ. Long before noon that day his big -pulpy hands were blistered and swollen, and by sundown they were a sight to behold. That night his mother cried over them, and urged him to atop thinking about the proud, stuck-up girl on the other side of the valley. "The idear !" muttered the old woman between whiffs at her clay pipe, while she dressed Shiftless Rufe's hand. "Do you think Kitty Sylvester will look at you Just because you've been fool enough to work a whole year? Why, it's puffiekly ridiklis. I allusknew you was a Mae light in the head, Rufe, but I didn't think you'd make a fool of yeurself for no conceited Sylvester girl." To this and much more of tbe same sort, both from his father and mother, Shiftless Rufe made no reply, but while yell the next morning was gray, the sound of the busy axe was again wafted dorms the valley, and thia continued to the going down of the sun. And so it went on, day after day, all the fall and tfirough the winter, No matter how deep 1 the snow, or how stormy the weather, Rife toiled on unceasingly. When the days ese e shortest, in the middle of the winter, hel sometimes began before day- break and veorked after dark, splitting the "lengths" he had chopped from the felled trees into "four -foot a ood" by the light of a tallow dip stuck into a tin lantern of the patern so common when the Corners" was new, but now rarely seen. Before spring folks got to going by Rufe's axe and lantern in beginning and leaving off work mornings and nights the same as they go by the big tannery whistle down the val- ley now, and nobody who began work as early as Rufe did and worked till Rufe's lantern was out at night was counted lazy. And Rafe did more than chop cordwood that winter. He learned to read, and this both his mother and father coneided a far more "ridiklis" proceeding. Yet more; he went to meeting every Sunday as regularly as the most pious and thrifty of the whole neighborhood. Not that he became speci- ally religious, no far as I know, but by go- ing to meeting he could get a- glimpse or two every Sunday of Kitty Sylvester, and it was a little thing, indeed, for the man who was chopping cordwood the whole year that he might rnake one mill on her, to listen to a semen once a week so that he could sit for a Whole hour under the same roof with her.. 'Nobody knew then how this devotion of her once shiftless, no -account lover affected Kitty Sylvester, but we learned afterward that the sound of his axe from morning to night echoing across the valley became as music in her ears, and that the light ,of his candle shining through the trees in the mornings and the evenings was delight to her eyes. At last the long winter, with its cold, its storms, and its darness wore away, the spring passed, and the summer with its heat came on. "Now Rufell weaken," said the loafers about the store. "It's all right to work hard when its cold and the air is bracing, but he'll let up in the hot weather, sure.' But they were wrong. All through the heated term Rufe's axe gave noisy notice that he was still working, and when fall be- gan it was still biting out chips and split- ting up lengths. At last the year was near- ly up, and old Sylvester had begun to ask himself whether he had not made an ex- ceedingly bad bargain after all. For Kitty was -plainly much interested in the patient lover who had toiled so long and scosteadily for the privilege of . calling on her "just once," and lit might be, the old man ren - sone, that the would allow him to call the second time; and perhaps a third, and per- haps -but the thought was too awful to en- tertain, and the old man strove to dismiss it. Failing in that he questioned the girl, who refused to answer satisfactorily, and the two had a quarrel, in which Mrs.Sylves- ter joined, taking Kitty's part most vigot:4' onsly. On the last day of the stipulated twelve months, Shiftless Rufe went to his -Work early and began with quick, eager strokes to cut a big hickory. He had become an expert axe -man by this time, and the sun was not yet high in the sky when the big tree came down with a crash. - It so hap- pened that I was over in the big woods that day with a neighbor looking at the timber. We heard the tree fall,and at the same tiaie a scream, as if a strong man was in mortal agony. In a hurry I ran in the direction of the sound, guided by low moans that follow - ad the shriek. There, pinned under a branch of the fallen tree, lay. Shiftless Rufe, badly crushed and barely conscious. For the time in the entire year be had mis- calculated in felling his tree. As quickly as CULIEPPCIIEILICALs flu fate simile ft os ot 17.2`474/2s, IttgNef- sigesters we could my neighbor and 1 out awe; the points in the direction of the Highland con. ge which we proposed to carry him home.

Shasaid I might come to- night -and so did her father -and -maybe -if you take me home before I go there, won't be able to see her to -night at all." So we carried him across to the big house on the Barkley estate. Part of the way he was quite unconscious and part of the way he was pathetically delirious, but when we reached the house he was quite rational, though very 'Weak. And so it was that I was present when Rufe Dunning made love to Kitty Sylvester.

Stagg, a well-known butcher, of this city, was the victor in a lifting contest, a few days ago. What Makes this statement one of unusual significance is the fact that for :years Mt.

Knavery is the worst trade. --' Learning makes a man fit company for himself. Modesty is a guard to virtue. Not to hear conscience is the way to sil- ence it.

Scottish Highlanders have always been firmly convinced that Adam and Eve used " ta Gaelic ;" and it is gratifying to find that philologists'as they grow wiser, are coming round to the same opinion. It is true that they have made no express admis- sion to this effect as yet, but there is evid- ence that we are on the eve of an acknow- ledgment that Gaelic was the original lan- guage of the human race. The latest de- liverance on the subject, if it does not alto- gether silence those sceptics and scoffers who derided this article of Highland faith, ought to at least -make them give pause. Dr. Leitner, a distinguished German Orientalist and philologist, has declared Gaelic to be a contemporary or derivative of the Prakit, clasely allied to the spoken language out of which Sanserit became a written language." He even goes so far as to assert that there seems to be in the Caelic "certain survivals of a pre -historic language." Clearly this ONIMPAINIMENINEM.M.Miewm DR. CHASE'S OINTMENT MR. 'pros.

From the Illustrated London News. . A curious incident has been lately narrated by a French physician of the curative powers of tobacco' exceeding anything that its most devotedadvocates have hitherto even imagined. A man dumb, but not deaf, from hie birth, who was much addicted to smoking, found himself in a new social en- vironment, where his daily want was not understood. After frantic endeavors to make his desire known he suddenly ex- claimed "Tobacco !" and from that moment found his speech. The statement is ad- vanced upon apparently sufficient authority, though it is certainly a strange one. Let the scientific explanation be what it may, how overmastering must be the passion that Makes the (Iamb to speak! Surely even the anti -tobacco agitator -must own that the exclamation was at least less dia. creditahe than an impassioned cry for soda - and -brandy, or even for that pot of the smallest ale which Christopher Sly besought his friend to give him for a comfort amid his enchantments. What has seemed to be confirmed deafness has often been cured by a direct appeal to the emotions ("Is this ehilling-yours or mine ?"or even by dropping a coin so as to ring upon the ground behind the patient), but that the word "Tobacco" should be an open, sesame, to the dumb' mouth is rare indeed. • Origin of Nations.

The Visigoths separated from other Gothic families early in the fourth cen- tury and were allowed to settle in Roman territory on condition of serving in the Roman armies. The Visigothic kingdom was founded in southern France and Spain, in 414 A. D. - . The Poles were first called such in the tenth century. Poland was settled by a branch of the Slavonic family and made a duchy in 550. Its history as a nation ceased in 1795, with Stanislas II, the kingdom be- ing divided bebween Russia, Prussia and Austria. -St. Louis Globe -Democrat. . 411 A Famous Dog Killed. The celebrated Newfoundland dog Sultan, which, for his acts of devotion to man and for his courage, was, on the 9th of May, 1894, solemnly rewarded by the Society for athe Protection of Animals with a collar of honor, has just fallen a victim to his fidelity to his master. - Among the feats performed by Sultan are the arrest of a robber, the capture of a murderer, the saving of a child 13 years old who was drowning in the Marne, and the saving of the -life of a man who had thrown himself into the Seine 'rem the Pont Neuf. He first belonged' to the publisher M. Didier, who, however, gave him to Mme. Foucher de Careil. She kept him at her residence near Oorbeil, where Sultan was the terror of tramps and malefac- tors, one of whom, it is probable, killed hip, for he was found lying dead by a hedge, poisoned with a piece of meat.. -Paris corre- spondent London Telegraph. • While You are Yet Growing. Growing gide and boys do not appreciate that it is while they are growing that they are forming their figures for after life. Drooping the shoulders a little more every day, drooping the head as one walks, stand- ing unevenly so that one hip sinks more than, the- other -all these- defects, easily Corrected now, will be five times as hard in five years and twenty-five times as hard in ten years. A graceful easy carriage and an erect straight figure are a pleasure to be- holder and possessor, and are worth striv- ingAnfoaraa. y way to practise walking well is to start out right. Jtiet before you leaore the house walk up to the wall and i3ee that your toes, chest and nose touch it at once ; then in that attitude walk away. Keep your head up and your chest out and. your shoulders and back will take care of themselves. &Southern school teacher used to in- struct her pupils to walk always as if trying to look over the top of an imaginary car- riage just in front of thein. It waa good ad- vice, for it kept the head raised. Don't think these things are of no value. They - add to your health and your attractiveness, two things- to whit* everybody should pay heed. -N. Y.
