-With her father upon her arm, she
enters a meseum or any public place
and begins a conversation in a low,
running voice, giving in a few words
a general idea of the rootlet and of ehe

they go on. The king enters like

Well, the piano was bought, and
Podgers brougbt it home in his wagon
and went puffing around like a porpoise
until hegot sixteen men to carry it in
tol the parlor, and they tramped dowe
all the pinks, and the lilies, and the
rose slips, and the beautiful flowering
alenthus that Mrs. Podgers brought
from Tonipkinsville, until the frent
yard looked. more like a Communipaw
than a flo mar trardeu,butPodgera didn't
care for all so be got the piano
; he etst thought of the Simpkins,
and that gave him fresh courage, as he
set his foot down on the camomile bed
and gave a lunge that knocked three
men awn and stove in the railing of
the porch, and the next moment he
was sitting down on the catnip bed
with the cud of the piano box. resting
en the waistband of his pants.
While this was all going on, news
had got out in town that Psdgers had
just brought Limn the remains of his
old mother-in-law, who had suddenly
died while off on a visit, and that Pod-
gers was smashing things, trying to
get ber into the house, and as it is the
custom in Poclgers' town to toll tbebell
when anyone dies, all the bells set up a,
solemn singing, and seven undertakers
came up, and ,three storekeepers with
samples of lace and mourning goods.
it was warm work at best for Podgers,
but this excitement seemed to act on
hie capillary organization until they
had to bring him out table -cloths to
wipe off the streaming perspiration.
At last the piano was put on its legs
and all ready, and as Podgers leaned
back in a rocking chair exhausted but
proud, he said :
" Now, Mary Ann, give us some mu-
sic."
It had never occurred to Podgers
that Mary Ann had never run her fin-
gers over a keyboard in her life, for al-
though she could flax him out on a
checker -board, she could not bring any
more music out of a piano than a eat
walking over the keys could.
" 011, she'll have to take music les-
sons,' said one of the Men. " The
French music teacher, Prof. La Fevre
will igve her lessons at fifty dollars
a quarter/
Podgers gave a long sigh • he bad

posed all that was necessary waito set

Professor could only give Mary Ann

hop out of bed and walk the ,,floor and
grit his teeth, unconsoled until he'd
go to bed and snore with his head un-
der the cover ard dream of the peace
jubilee.
Perigees got another gene 4110ek to
his nerves. Prof. La Fevre told him
that Mary Ann must study French to
probably understend music ; „that he
could explain more satisfactorily to her
in French, and she could speak the
musical term so much more fashionably
with a French accent. Podgora got
mad and said he'd be 'Arrested if she
shoula ; English was good enough for
Mary Ann ; but Mrs. Podgers used
little feminine diplonntey that won.
She told him the Simpkins' girls Were
studying French, and then Peters
went and took out a load of cabbagea

on hina two days after, and while tel-
ling us the circumstance of the fall he
mentioned this coneidence: He had a
letter in his hand whiell he had just
received from his sort Henry living at
Kansas City. His son wrote : Are
you well ; for last night I had a dream
that troubles me. I heard a crash, aud
standing up saidto ray wife, Did you

father had a fall and was dead. I got
up and looked lit my watch, and it was

vivid was the aream." And it made
him anxious to.hear from home. The
Bishop said he was not superstitious,
but he thought it remarkable that
Henry should haese had a aream ee the
very hour 61 the safne night' that the
accident occurred. The difference in
the time there and here hind fifteen
minutes, and it was 2:15 by his watch,
making it the same moment. It is as if
be had actually heard the fall. And the
fall finally caused the Bishop's death.
His hand becarne intensely painfal, and
gangrene set in, which after two weeks
of suffering; tetminated his life."

Trvirfarmers living on adjoining

suit in chancery, having run on from
year to year, both mon i>pending their
money in lawyer's fees without any le-
gal conclusion.
About a. year ago the two farmers
awoke one Monday morning to find
that each had lost a child, one his
youngest son, and the other his only

a terrible blow, and. he went out into

ramie All that passed through the old
gentleman's need is not keowii, but
there seemed to be a desperate etruggle
within which resulted in his returnee;
to the lawyer's oftleo and postponing
the bluenose. Then he drove directly
to his farm and had a long privete in-
terview with his tvife ; then he did What
