"Mrs. Hunter's little girl?" exclaimed Maud, raising her eyes, full of deep re- verence for the mime. Nig Honoria deigned no reply, stive a haughty bend of the head. And ATftud stepped down iuto the mud and let her go past. But another pair of eyes had WTI this play of insolonee and love, and they were fixed teuderly, lingeringly upon our little girl as elm elimbed back upon the foot- way. And • as Maud regained her foot. Inge she lifted up lice eyes and saw upon the other side of the road the beautiful form of Mrs. Daniel Hunter, holding her lusnas out toward her. Maud hastened. springing from stone to stone toward the lady, with the strange, deep impres- shm that elle bad found what she had set mit that morning to meet. "Carefuly, my child, carefully," said Mrs. Hunter, as the little girl cleared with two bounds the last, intervening dleistienee between them and Fitooel before her. "Why did you go into the mire, my love It" "It was to let your little girl pas, "T wish you were my little OA, sweet child, but bow came you so far from home, love?" "I set off for a walk by myself, and didn't know how far it was till I got here, lady:" "Does Mis. O'Leary consent that you should, take sueb long, lonely walks?" "No, lady, and I must hurry back." "What -having walked five miles, to walk back again -making ten -it would tire ,you nearly to death, my child. Come, we are taking a pleasant ride this fine morning. Won't you go with us? We are ening first to the endmit, and then romid to Silver Ctreek to see, Mrs O'Leary, and we can take you home :goner then you could walk thither. Will you go?" "Do you mean I am to ride with you, lady, and you will take me home?" ask- ed Wild, with sparkling eyes. "Yes, love, I should like to do so." At this moment the carriage came plunging alowe down the &Levy road. Maud was helped in tenderly, and Mrs. Hunter called to Honoria, and together they drove to ,Silver Creek, where they arrived late inithe afternoon. Ellen was sm•prised and pleased to see them, es- pecially with her little truant in their company. The object of Mrs. Hunter in making this visit was to influence Ellen in favor of allowing ber son to be edu- cated by Mr. Hunter. They had a, long private interview, in the epurse of which Mrs. Hunter said: "You know, my dear Ellen, that if tiner one had wantonly injured you, there is nothing left you to do but to forgive - and, Ellen, Mr. Hunter never wantonly wronged one of God's creatures, from the smallest to the greatest. And now he earnestly desires to repair, as Inc as he cap, the injustice you have suffered at the hands of • the law. He knows and we all knoev, that the etmost he could do would be bllt 110thillg to the wrong you have suffered; if he could give you his own life, it woulki not bring back the departed, or eompensiete you for his loss, but he earnestly desires to do what lie 00"14"thienk you, Mrs. Hunter. I certain- ly do thank you. But I cannot yet de- eit.„ I must write to Father Goodrich f They then left the bedroom where this interview had token place, and passed into the parlor, where Miss Honoria, sat waiting in sullen dignity, and Maud stood arranging a little bouquet. "And now I have a favor to ftsk of you, Mrs. O'Leary," said the lady, lifting her beautiful eyes with a look almost of entreaty to the face of Ellen, and taking the hand of the child. "Will you let - this dear Title girl come to see me if I send the carriage for her?" "Certainly; I thank you very much for the interest you take in her, Ales. Hunter." "Then you will let lie reorne?" "Certainly, madam," It was time to take leave -it was high time to be off -yet still the lady lingered, holding the hand of the child. "Ibis almost too much t °ask you for your one vsee lamb, yet if you could let her go home with me this evening and spend a week, I would bring her back at the end of that time." "I should tome no objection, Mrs. Bun- ter, only -look at her! The child. has not got her spring clothing yet." Still the lady held the child's hand, atut looked down lovingly upon .her, thinking, "she' is beautiful in anything - she is as beautiful in this brown, stiff froek as a moss rose in its brown moss."

What Should be Taught. We should try to impress on children that God represents the soul of all true happiness, and that He approves and takes leasure in all innocent joy. We ' awl looks upon their sports and amusements with the same spirit of pride and loving grati- fication which they see in the light of their mothers' eyes and smiles. Nothing is more important than that we should relieve our children of the notion that God. looks askance upon the things which they must enjoy, or that at best He takes no interest in them. Their wholesome enjoyments should be made a part of their religion. It may not be necessary for a robust boy to feel defin- itely that he is playinglsgame of ball in the name of the Lord, but he should feel that so far as he relates it at any time to his religious life it may be Wholly in harmony with it. Children should be encouraged to believe that God is pleased to have them play heart- ily and honestly. and to work heartily and, honestly., They should be brought to incorporate into their religious ideals, the conception that God expects of them that they will be frank, and truthful, and open-hearted, that they shall perfoim their tasks, small or large, cheerfully and thoroughly, that He is displeased with trickery, and deceit, and sham, and unfairness, and every attempt eteeeavoid duty: Thus they should be brouglitetii see that religion covers ev- erything included in the day and the week, not simply saying thier twayers, reading more or less from the Bible, and attending a service or two at Aurelia- Se!.

They feel that they could not do much 'because their ability is so small, and therefore they do not try to do anything. They suppose that they are practicing the mueh-praised virtue of humility, while really they are evading duty and responsibility and thus incurring blame and guilt. The truth is, no one, however small his ability, need live uselessly. God bestows no talents which He means to be wrapped up in napkins of any kind. Of course, we cannot give what we have not. But we should give always what we have. We aro never to say, "There ia no use in my giving, for I have so little. It can do no one any good." We have nothing to do with the matter of larger or smaller. We are responsible only foe what we have. If it is but one little talent, one little talent is all we elan have to answer for.

Digging usually begins in October, and is done by peasants:, who at the cod of each day deliver the root to the various depots and receive payment (according to the quantity they bring. The root is piled up and exposed to the air until about May and June.

Cattle, among country folk, at one time constituted the dollar, while primitive, man generally made use of any article sufficiently abun- dant for the standard payment of all merchandise. Thus, in ancient Greece, says Har - per's Weekly, a large bronze tripod had the value of a dozen oxen. A good hard-working woman, on 'the other hand, was given in exchange for only four such beasts. When metal took the place of money, the dollar clung to its tra- ditions, and coins were still called after live stock. Thus, "pecunia," applied to metal money, derived its origin from "pecus" (cattle.) From the custom of counting heads of cat- tle came the present designation of a sum in cash -capital, or "capita" (heads). In Sanscrit, roupa . (herd, flock) made roupya, or the Indian roupee. While ingots of electrum, or admixture of gold and silver, whe,n first in use as money, bore the im- press of an ox or cow. Not clumsy, but too fragile, were the shells in use as money by the negroes of Africa, and throughout ancient Asia, where the natives, tak- en by its beauty, gave the shell a money value. • • * ENGLISH SPAVIN LINIMENT Removes all hard, soft and calloused lumps and blemishes from horses, blood spavin, curbs, splints, ringbone, sweeney, stifles, sprains, sore and swollen throat, coughs, etc, Save 850 by use of one bottle.

She had not seen him since his boyhood, and 11448 therefore anxious to attend service at his church. At dinner subsequent to the Sunday sermon, she heard delivered by her nephew, it was observed that she was singularly reticent. Suddenly she broke her long silence la _staking her nephew: ."Frank, why did you enter the min- istry?" "Why, aunt," exclaimed the young man, "what a question. I entered the ministry because I was called." Just a suspicion of a smile came to the old lady's face as she responded: "Are you sure, Frank, that it wasn't some other noise you heard?"

Perhaps some of you have thought that 1 have insisted too much, sleek lsz week, on the value ol fruit -good, fresh, wholesome fruit -as an article of daily consumption; but of its health value too much cannot be said. Fruit should -let me say it again -be looked upon: as a necessity-, not a luxury, as 11 18 at pre - Sent, and form a part of every meal, either raw or cooked. Our dootors have been laying this law down for a long time now, but of late an eminent man in the east has shown with muoh success that the aoids of lemons, apples, and some other fruits are capable of de- stroying all kinds and. varieties of the germs which cause disease and. pain In the human body. The adds, citric and malie, contained in the fruits men- tioned have probably the effect of kill- ing these disease germs. Cholera germs are said to be killed in fifteen minutes by lemon juice or apple juice, and even typhoid germs,which have great resist• Ing power, are killed in about thirty nifnutes by either of these acids, even In a diluted form., A tumbler of cold water, saturated with cholera bacilli, to give rather a frightening inetanee, may be gulped down one's thraat with impun- ity providing a lemon has been squeezed into it fifteen or twenty minutes before this. One isn't going to run this risk, of course, but still it slows what value these fruit acids have in serious disease; but their value is great, too, in keeping the body in gooi general health, provid- ing 1ways the truit is in good condition and is eaten in moderation. To eneour- age children to spend their "sweetie pen- nies" in fruit rather than in wefts is a wise proceeding, though a few sweets are good for growing ehildren,-Mar- garet. Dohn Was Huffed. In the olden time a woman in the north of Scotland went to visit her hus- band, who was condemned to be hanged on the following day. The doomed man began to give his last instructions to his wife preparatory to bidding her fare- well, when all at once she broke in upon the conversation, and exclaimed: "By the by, John, evhaur will I plant the tatties this year?" The unfortunate man, as may be imagined, grew exceedingly in- dignant at the indifference of his wife, and exclaimed, angrily: "What need I care whaur ye plant them? I'm no like- ly to need ony o' thene.'"illech," replied the woman, turning to the warder with a wag of the head, "oor John's huffed because he's gaun to be hanged the morn," and marched out of the cell. 4'., Mniard's Liniment Cures Distemper.

O'Connor, a, stockman of Coiled, Tex., imported from India aboad two years ago, hoe done so well that the variety will soon be found upon many of the ranches of (southwest Texas. A. P. Borden, of Pierce, Tex., and other representative cattlemen of the Gulf coast region made a study of the Bur- mese sacred cattle in Incite before the experiment of bringing them over here was tried. It was found in these investi- gations that the Burmese cattle were not subject to the splenetic, or "tick" fever, whielt is the bane of the cattle of south- ern Texas, particularly when introducing stock from "above the line." The claim is made that the Burmese ste beef animals are the equal of any of the breeds of cattle commonly found upon the ranches. They fatten easily and their flesh is of good quality. When crossed with other breeds the result is an improved animal both as to standard of weight and other important qualities, it is claiined.-Kanets City Star. !I Pkiko ORO _ lllHI , k im;:ary "There's Whim, like St. George's Baking Powder "It keeps its strength -the last spoonful is as good as the first."
