It was something new for Oo,orgP Stanton n ' to carry enmity in his bouton- and Pspccially enmity against one whom ho had loved so well. As such II Mate was not natural to him it herame ne- eossnry to the continuance of the.0nnilty' that It(, should nourish it, and in doing this he robbed him own soul of its joys. Twice he met Caleb Bradford, but h0 would not Spear: to him. In the even- ing he wits careful to avoid every place where Caleb wits in the habit of ending: so that by the, time he reac•Ucd him home, hP began to feel troubled. llt, almost wished that him old friend would come and see him and ash: to mnke up; but he could not take the initiatory step himself -oh, no. On the afternoon of the third day Flinn saw her brother in the parlor. "Well." she said, at the same time lay- ing her hand upon his nrm, "]low do you prosper?" What do you mean, Iaiza?" "Idow do you come on with your hatred of Caleh Bradford?" "ITntred? i do not hate him." "Ah! I thought by this time you would have come to hate him with a perfect hatred." "You needn't try to play with me in this way, Illiza. I know what you mean. Yon are mistaken if you think I am a fool," "Penh, George—why do you speak so ,to me?' And as the sister said this -shc toot her brother's hand and looked tip into his face with a kindly smile. "Come -let ns reason.

Now, tell me, Is It not very unpleasant to be, at enmity with Calt•h Bradford?" George did not hesitate long, for Ice hall eonfidenee in his sister, and he knew, ,Tftoreover. that slip eonid read his feel - And, furthermore, she had been no It mo' Cher to him, in love and care, for Sever - a) years so he yielded much to her on that account.

Eliza looked at her brother a few ino- ment8 and then said, in it tone and with an expression of love and kindness: "My deal- brother, I wish you would listen to ane one moment, for I wuut to give you It lesson in social life which may be of advantage to you. You know I would not tease you, and that I would only speak for your benefit, You cer tainly feel that," "Of course, I &a," responded the youth, "Then you will be free and sincere, and answer me after the dictates of your own instincts?" "Yes." "')'hank you, brother. And now, just tell ate this: flow many deeds of kind- ness and love hits Caleb Bradford doue toward you?" (,eorge wits silent. "Have they not been many?" pursued the sister. \\ by -yes- I suppose they have," the young maul finally answered with some reluctance. "Aye," added Eliza, warmly, "h know they have. I know that for match of your joy you have been indebted to him, and that he has loved you well and truly. Ile has done this for years -for long years lie has been true and faith- ful, has Ile not?" "Yes." "And now -how much evil has he done yon ? IIow ninny deeds hits he done to harm you'!" George did not answer, "I shall have to speak for you," Eliza said, speaking with more Parnestness as she proceeded. ".lust think of it!

"You have a splendid watch which your father gave you, and I know that you value it highly. Suppose it should stop would yo throw it Away?" "Of course not," said George.

"Need I say any more'? I will, how- ever, say this: "Take counsel of your noble instincts, and make yourself as happy as you can in the path of the right." With these words Eliza arome and left the room, and George was left alone. Awhile he sat upon the sofa, with his head hent, and then lie got rep till paced the floor it few minutes. It did not take him long to understand what his sister meant, nor dill it take long for him to discover and appreciate its truth: he did this its he spoke. for it hnd.applalod to the judgment of bis Own sould.

This quantity makes eight loads for one horse and six hours are required for a trip. The time of myself and horse is worth (t0 cents per load. I make 500 crates of vegetables, which require seventy-one trips to get them to the station at a cost of $12.60. On hard roads I could haul my $70 worth of fertilizer 4n four trips of four hours eaA. tit a cost of $1.60. I could haul my 500 orates of vegetables in thirty-five trips of four hotu•s each, at a cost of $14. On the sand roads one horse is requited seventy- one (lays to ship my crop, which Is n longer time than the shipping )season; hence I amt compelled to keep two .horses during the year, or hire from any neigh - ore at a busy time. The cast oaf keep- ing the second horse may be safely esti- mated at $25.So much of my time Is used in my trills to town that during three mionths of the year I am compelled to hire an extra hand, which costs me about $15. The foregoing items will suffice to show that bad roads coat on my tete acre crap $101.80, being a tax of over $10 per acre.
