Slowly and sadly she turned away
from the home of her happy wifehood.
Her unconscious hnsbalad and chil-
dren, ignorant ofher f}ig,it, lay F1eep-
iug the sleep of innocence, while she
was severing their heart String:at every
stet,. Tho catty birds of morning twit-
tered on the eaves. The early sen
gleamed upon the cool waters of the
lake. The old well and the old bucket
put on a sorrowful smile as she passed
them by. The garden gate gave quite
a litade groan as she pushed it open fcr
the last time. Then she flung back
her bonnet from her flushed forehead
anti stepped out. Sa adenly a lark
whirs ea up from the poppiecl wheat
field and gave his matin song to azure
above. She stopped, and a strange
hungering look came into her eyes. 'I
will go back again,' she murmured. A.
favorite dove hopped on her shoulder
And said, 'Coo.' 'I must go back again
she said At the end of the lane,
Tommy the blind pony, ran up and
rubbed his nose against hers, 'I will
go back again,' sho cried. She turned
her face once again towards her home.
There was a look of determination in
her eyes, and with bold brave steps he
opened the wicket door and wont up
the gravel path. On the threshold of
the door she halted. Batt the souk of
the lark burst out -again, awl nature
triumphed. 'I will go in again,' she
whispered, I know there's another dol-
lar in his pocket, and he ain't awako

we have seen is told by a New Yorker
who took up his residenee daring the
'heated term' in a watea ing place,
where the shop keepers evidently do
not have the fear of the Lord before
their eyes. He had some time since
purchased a quantity of sugar and
found it sadly adulterated with sand.
'Next day he inserted the following par-
agraph in the local paper :—Notice, It
bought of a grocer in this town seven
pounds of sugar from which I extract

who cheated me will send to my ad-
dress seven pounds, of sugar, (the
Scriptural measure of restitution), I
shall be satisfied. If not, I will ex-
pose 1 im.' The next 3ay- nine seven
pound packages were left at the adver-
iser's house, there being nine grocer's,
in the town, and each supposing him-
self to have been de►acted. •
