• half dozen of us started to go to old Solo-

Solomon - that wee the name he was
known by. for nobody knew his real nine --
was about 60 years old and one of the hard-
est workers in the vicinity. He scraped and
.eared and was as mean en old chap In hu
bsheviur toward his fellows es you oould
wish to see. He lived alone anal had no-
thing to do with anybody : and never went
away from hie farm for he was • sheep end
cattle herder -except when he journeyed to
Sidney to make sales and get his moray.
What he did with his money was a
mystery. Tame and again had his odd
shanty been rummaged by robbers anises—eh
of hidden treasure, mut they never found so
much as ■ penny by way of reward for their
puns : and so was left undisturbed.
Now he was dying.

We buried bun next day on • little knoll

and not unmindful of has whim about the

And Tom and 1 made an opening in the

Some old men coming home from church
pointed me to the village burying g:ouod,
and on a mum -grown .tone l read her name
" Annie Iochbald, died Aug. 5, 18---,
aged 34 years. Blessed are the deed who
die in the Lord."
She had been dead 17 years.
And poor old Solomon had labored hard
and pinched himself of the necessaries of
life for nothing.
Ye: not quite that. Anne's old, mid
mother still lived, rapidly neenog her five -
score years, and the mosey which had been
sent to her daughter had beau all that had
kept her out of the poor -home. So an 01,1
old neighbor told me. And even while we
stood on the village green taking at over
the bell of • neighboring church clanged
out and • passing youth told us that old
granny Inehbald was deed.
So it was all over, and I had no more to
do.
I did one foolish thing, I suppose you will
ay, but I don't exactly think so. I planted
a root of violets on Anne's grave and under
math them I laid the lock of gray hair; for
somehow at seemed to me she would rest
better in her grave with a part of what she
had once loved so near her. She had bees
faithful to the old love, they told me, and in
spite of everything had never believed hie,
gailty of her brother's death.

From the Hamilton Herald.
A good store is told at the expeese ot B.
B. Oder, the eminent Q. C., who has figured
so prominently at Wentworth Aemzea this
week. Mr. Ost..r is president of the
Hamilton and Dundee ltalroad, and he is
also one of the principal stock h..lders in the
concern, so Wednesday evening he thought
he would take • run out to Dundas to see
how the railroad system was working. He
reached the Valley Town in safety and
after looking around the town for • while
with one or two fnends he hoarded the train
to return to the city.
The lawyer settle 1 himself comfortably
down in • corner of the parlor oosch and
immediately_ iet his thoughts go out on legal
matters. e was so engroseed with has
thinking that he dad not see the conductor
of the train until that official shoved the
fare -box under his nose and politely re-
quested him to chip M. The great Q.
wa nonplussed for a moment. " What,"
said be, " don't you know that 1 am Area,
dent of this roed, and that i ride over it
free.'
The conductor was • pew moo or be
might have known this, but is his two
week's experience on the road he had been
given to understand that every 'dummy'
passenger must either pay or produce a pass,
and he did not know B. R. Osier, Q. C
from any other stranger. "Well, you show
me your pass'" he added.
" Oh,- laughed the lawyer, " 1 haven't
• pass, but i amore you, my dear air, 1 am
president of this road" Ha laugh was by
O o means • mirthful one and the conductor
became suspicious
"i'm sorry said the conductor, with the
least shade of irritation in his voice, "but
I gems you'll have to pay Yon see, you
may be what you represent yourself to be
all right, but i don't know you, .d a000rd-
imi to the rales you must whelk up."
The Q. C. "whacked app" without furtler
argument, bat when he dropped his fifteen
orate in the slot the smile faded from nos
face and he Meted tired. He evidently did
not appreciate paying for a rife ea his own

trian Monastery. Scholars will be very
much interested to know that this new
manuscript, which we hope will he pub-
lished before lung, does not contain the
last eight verses of Mark, although the
Nitrian fragments do contain part of
them. We can hardly say what may
not yet be expected. Within the last
new years there have been discovered a
commentary, from which we recover
much of the Uiatesseron of Tatian, the
Teaching of the Apostles, the Apology of
Aristides, portions of fragments a the
Jerusalem Syriac version of the New
Testament. and the Gospel and Revela-
tion of Peter. If we went back a little
further we should have to add the Sini-

Hippolytus. Now what we most want
