Bottle& Oue day late in the fall, when the cold weather was beginning to come, the sitting. room door flew open In a way that made mamma wonder if somehow a lively little breeze hadn't got into the house. Sure enough 1 But the breeze had blue eyes and rosy cheeks and ily.away curls, and. it answered to the mune of Ave. "What is wanted now, dear ?" asked mamma, with a smile. "0 mamma 1" the little girl panted forth, breathlessly, "Mr. Fellows will buy bot- tles, little one and big ones, mamma, and give a cent apiece, and weft I pick up all I can, and you get me some out of the med. 'cine closet, you know, 'cause there's such a many there? and I'll WA$11 'OM Out aud sell 'em, and get e whole lot of money,— and--and—end give some to Verxiie Dyer to get a new pair of shoes, if you will, mamma, 'cause hers are so old, you know. Please, please, mamma !" Mamma laughed, and thought a minute. I don't believe she could say no to the wee maid, with the bright, eager face and little fluttering hands. At any rate, she diclaft. "1 don't care," she said. "Find all the empty vials yon have a mind to, deer. Only, if you break one, don't out your fingers with the glass." "Oh yes'm, I won't,." cried AVM. .yvvill you look in the med'etne,closet, mamma ?" "There are no empty bottles there, I think," said mamma. 'Ava, gave a little sigh. She wasn't gait° satisfied. "But there are lots with only a teeny- tonty. mite in," said she. "Couldn't you And then mamma langhed in earnest, at the idea of mixing the liniment e and cough - balsams. "1 don'tbelieve I could," said she. "Run away, dear. I guess you'll find plenty of And so she did. Her bright eyes went spying into every nook and corneti Up iu the shed -chamber she found a whole salt- box full ! Then what a jubilee there was ! "1 counted 'em, and there's thirty-three !" Ave cried, skipping in to tell mamma about it. "And maybe, if I wash 'em oleaner than any, Mr. Fellows will give me more than a cent apiece, and Pll give Vernie Dyer half to buy her shoes, and then I'll buy a locket like auntie's, only littler, and a book for you, mamma, and some candy, and—can I go this afternoon to sell 'em, mamma?' ru see," said mamma, and that was as good as yes any time. But Ave didn't go to sell her little stock of bottles that afternoon, for right away after dinner Milly Dixon came to play with her. "I can stay two hours," said Milly. Two hours seemed a ince long time, and the little friends paid visits and had tea- parties till they were tired of such fun. Thbn they put on their hoods and went out- doors and Milly found an old oil -can. " out- doors, let's fill this with water and play 'twas kerosene oil," said she, "and play fill lamps." " Oh, so we will I" cried Ave.; "and have my bottles for lamps! Won't that be fun ?" So they worked away, filling the bottles with water and putting them on a shingle- , shelf, until it came time for Milly to go home. And, because the little folks teased so hard, mamma said Ave. might go with her and stay "just a little while." That was how it happened that the bot- tles were forgotten. Ava's ideas of a little while were very large ideas indeed; and it was beginning to grow dark when she got home, and tea, was almost ready, and Mary was filling cranberry tarts, and needed a good deal of watching. And after tea it was quite dark and Ave.'s bedtime, besides. But next morning—Oh dear! Can't you guess what happened when Ave. ran out with her little basket to empty her bottles and pack them. Don't you know, without my telling it, that all of those poor little lamps --every single one—had cracked and shivered and broken, and that when AVO, took them in her warm little hands they fell in pieces, leaving only bottlea;haped bits of ice' In a moment of time a curly, golden head was buried in menune's lap. "0 mainma I mamma, 1" sobbed Ave, "Jack Frost has broken all my bottles, don't you blieve ! all my b.bottlee, mamma, every one 1" And marnina, When she hearci all about it, didn't tell Ava she ought to have known better, or that her little while at Milly' house should have been suoh a long one. She said,— "Never mind, dear; I think we can find more. And then then she took the drooping, tearful little maid on her lap, and gave her her very first lesson in natural philosophy. Religion of Gypsies. Of religion, sad to say, the gypsies have little or none, as we know it. They have not learned and they cannot learn. Some notable exceptions there are who teach their children the Lord's Prayer, which is translated into their language, and allow them to attend Sunday -school when they are sometime in the neighborhood, of one. But they have a rooted objection to churches, and some of them lay a curee on their children if they break the promise they extort from them on their death -beds that they will flea bury them in a church- yard. In common with all savage, uncivil- ized nations, they speak of and know a Great Spirit, to whom they look up and whom they try to propitiate, but the idea of him is so overlaid with superstition, with a belief in lesser powers, fairies, brownies, kelpies, omens, that even this vague wor- ship is inccenplete. They resent intrusion, but at the same time have mot the advance of Christian teachers with a gracious and dignified, if somewhat condescending, man- ner. They have no ambition, for they have never striven to rise; and, strange to say, any special talent or cleverness among them has been found on the female side. AS a rule, the women are Inc quicker in intellect than the men.

AN OPINION WANTED. The Secretary announced the following communication from Birmingham, Ala.: "I do not remember that Brother Gard- ner hat; yet expressed himself on the question of the tariff. Is he for free trade or protec- tion ? Before we 'make application for a branch lodge at this place this question must be settled. Let him give ushis candid opin- ion." "In reply to dat,,, said the old man as he caressed his right ear in a reflective way, "1 nebber had but one policy. If I had a mule to sell I toted him around till I got all he was wuth anda leetle mo'. If Iwant- ed to buy a mule, I waited till mule-mcat was cheap, and got one fur a ketle less dan he was wuth.

Penstock, to whom was reterred the question: "Has the emancipation of the blacks resulted in a marked increase of colored Christians ?" begged leave to re- port that he had investigated to the 'best of his ability, and was compelled to conclude that it had not. There was a larger attend- ance at the church but no apparent enthus- iasm.

He was Afraid that the young colored, man was growing up without fear of the hereafter, and that pride and vanity were the ruling spirits even among the middle.a,ged church- goers.

On the thirteenth of October, however, a statue of whiteanarble was raised in memory of a WO - man i0 the market -place of Waleall, York- thire, in the very heart of the Black country. The money for it erection was ,contributed in penniee, siapennies, and shillings by the poor miners and iron -workers. Every elan woman., and child for many miles around calve something. Large contributions were declined for the reason that all the poor wanted their little offerings accepted. The statue is of Sicilian marble, the height of the figure is in a sittina posture being itbout eight feet and that Ori the granite pedes- tal being nine feet, A wows or BRACTIFUL FORM and features is represented in the garb of a hospital nurse, the hands holding a bandage as if preparing to dress the wound of a pm - tient. - The woman whose form, features and calling are preserved in marble was familar- ly known as "Sister Dora." Her full name WAS Miss Dorothy Wyndlow Pattison. She was horn at Hauxwell, Yerkshire, a which parish her father was pastor, ou January 16, 1832, being next to the youngest of twelve children, one of whom Was the Rev. Mark Pattison. In her childhood and youth she showed strong points of character. She devoted much of her time to the poor and sick of the perish and gave instructions to these who could not attend School. On the breaking out of THE WAR AGAINST liana& she desired to accompany Florence Night- ingale to the Crimea, but she could not gain the consent of her father and brother. Hav- ing some means of her own she established, in 1865, a cottage hospital at Walsall, which contained accommodationa for four- teen patients. The hospital was a success from the start. To it were brought the victims of most of the mining disasters thereabouts. She attended to all the cases personally, and with the aid of a porter did al the work in the hospital. "A bell -cord led from each bed to her room, and it had never to be pulled but once to bring the nurse to the sufferer. She soon mastered the skill of the surgeons, and was taken into their confidence in censultation, to de- cide whether aanputations were necessary. SIIE SATED SEVERAI, LIMBS and secured the lasting gratitude of those to whom they belonged. Her courage, hope, and cheerfulness inspired all who were under her charge. She became a superior cook and invented several dishes for in- valids. As her little hospital, was not large enough to aecommodate all the sick and wounded in the neighborhood, she had the oversight of thot3e that were sheltered else- where. Although she devoted. most of her time to nursing men, she was not neglect- ful of women and children. She carried flowers to their poor homes, prepared ap- petizing dishes for them, and recited prayers and read stories at their bedsides. In the course of her ministrations she contracted the small -pox, and thereafter nursed all who were afflicted with THAT TERRIBLE DISEASE. In the winter of 1876 she discovered that she was suffering from cancer, but she kept the secret from every one but her confiden- tial physician, and bravely continued her work six months longer. On the following Christmas eve she quietly died. It was not necessary for " Sister Dora" to wait till the close of life to be honored. Early isi her career the workingmen of Wal- sall presented her with a beautiful pony and carriage, and when she passed along the streets on her way to visit the sick 'every man and boy uncovered his head. One young man, whose arm she had saved, walked eleven miles to give her a bouquet. A little girl, in dying, said to her: "When you come to heaven, dear sister, I will meet you at the gates with abunch of flowers." All the inhabitants of the town where she worked and ministered revered and almost WORSHIPED THE GENTLE AND HEROIC WOMAN. The poor and ignorant believed. that she possessed superhuman attributeri, and de- clared that she possessed the power toper - form miracles. The highly intelligent thoia- ored her no less, but in s, different way. Women who are pining for fame in this and other countries, may learn from the history of this noble woman how to acquire it. There are thousands of people ready to be grateful to those who will merit their gratitude. The supply of excellent statu- ary marble hats not given out, and several skilful artists are at any time ready to shape it into the likeness of some noble and self-sacrificing woman.

Perhaps the most thrilling quarter of an hour of John Howard Payne's life was that when Jenny Lind sang "Home, Sweet Home," to him. The occasion was the Jen- ny Lind concert in Washington, the uight of Dec. 17, 1850. The assembly, was, per- haps, the most distinguished ever seen in a concert -room in the States The immense National hall, hastily constructed for the occasion on the ruins of the burned National theatre, was filled to overflowing. Among the notables present and occupying front ! seats were President Fillmore, Daniel Web- ster, Henry Clay, Gen. Scott, and John Howard Payne. Jenny Lind opened with the "Caste Diva," a,nd fellowed with the Flute Song" (in which her voice contested rivalry for purity and sweetness with a flute in the duet), then the famous "Bird Song," and next on her programme the "Greeting to Ameri.a." All the pieces were applaud- ed apparently to the full capacity of an en- thusiastic audience, and Mr. Webster, who was in his most genial after-dinner mood, emphasized the plaudit by rising from his seat and making Jenny a profound bow, as if responding for the country to her ".Greet - Mg.' But when the "Swedish Nightin- gale" answered the encore by turning in the direction of John Howard Payne and giving "Home, Sweet Hoine," with all the wonder- ful tenderness, purity, and siinplicity fitting both the words and air of the immortal song, the difference was at once seen between the mechanical applause called out by a display of fine voealization and that elieted by the "touch of nature that makes the whole world" kin, Before the first line of the song was completed the audience was fairly "off its feet," and could scarcely wait for a pause to give expression to its enthusiasm. Peo- ple ordinarily of the undemonstrative sort clapped, stamped, and ehouted as if they were mad, and it seemed as if there would be no end to the uproar. Meantime, all eyes were turned upon Payne, it small -sized, elegantly -moulded, gray-haired- ggntlen who blushed 'violently at finding himself thc centre of so many glances.
