Went Barefoot.
Nearly twenty years ago a poor minister
in a village parish tried to persuade a fam-
ily of the neighborhood, so vagrant in their
habits thet they Blount deserved to, be call-
ed a family of tramps, to eettle down, live
decently, and attend church. •
"At least," he said to the mother, "let
the boys come to our Sunday school."
" They have no clothes fit to wear," she
said.
"I will find clothefor them," he ans-
wered.
The clothes were provided with muoh
difficulty and self-denial by the Clergyman.
They shan't go barefoot," said the
mother. ",I won't have my boys laughed at.
The shoes could not be bought. The
minister's- pockets were empty. He thought
3 moment.
My own boys will go barefoot," he
said • then your& will not be laughed at."
"What do you say, Jack,'Tom ? he said
a few hours later at the supper table. "Will
you go *barefoot to bring these lads to
school ?"
Jack and Tom, with somewhat wry face,
laughed and finally consented.
The other boys went to Sunday school for
a few months, and then the entire family
disappeared, and soon passed out of the
minister's mind.
Lset summer -the good ps,stor, now almost
an old mien, preeched in a remote country
village, and after service was over, was
greeted by a young man, the pastor of a
email ehuroh near by. He was one of the
vagabond boys.
" All thet I am I owe to that kindly
thought of yours about the shoes " he said.
"It was the first act of self sacrifioing kind -
nese that ever -had come into my wretehed
life. It turned me to a new path of thought
and action, and the good influence of the
Sunday school did the rest, Your boys
probably thought it was a little thing to go
herefoat for a few Sundays. But it saved a
human soul."
The fingers of the telegraph operator often
send out words which seem to hien unim-
portant and commoriplece. Yet he deals
with a force that could rend the earth in
pieoes, and his mesea.ges may carry joy or
misery to thousand& of hearte.
He nor we are wholly responsible for the
results that follow our acte and worde. Our
only care should be, promPted by motives,
as in the case above noted, that they are
true to the ' best we know.—From the

A writer in Demorest's Magazine gives
an amueing account of a visit to some Col-
orado mines. -The guide, a youth of gaunt
aspect and sharnbling gait, endeavored to
enliven the way with conversation, " Wirer
Wye came from, anyhow ?" was his first
.question, which WaS satisfactorily answered.
" ! Whodger cloin' up yere ?" The
doctor explained, " Whodger wanter see
er mine furl? Blame if I don't think you
folke from the East is all off yer base
Wanter see a mine! Huh ! An' gala too!"
with increasing contempt.
As we turned a corner in the road we
came upon a picturesque little hut made of
rough loge, the interstiees being filled with
stones and clay. It was roofed with dabs,
and lighted by two small windows, and alto•
gether was the quaintest, rudest habitatiop
that I ever saw. Before it sat two men, ar-
rayed in whot our guide termed, " bang-up
ernart etere-clothes," but, evidently, in
their rugged, seamed faces, eteinecl and
knotted hands, in short, everything about
them, miners.
Peeping into the doorway, askew like
everything else about the hut,! I caught
sight of a chair, a slab -table with is tin -coffee
pot upon it, a shelf supporting two or three
pieces of crockery, together With- a few
other primitive household uteneilis. As sve
approaehed, the two men took off their
has with a rough courtesy which seems na-
tive to their class.
" Well, job, yer got a job ?" said one, ad-
dressing our guide,
"-Takin' a raft o' tencl,erfeots ter the
seine," answered 'lob.
"Mighty smart chaps, them 'two fellers,"
oheerved Job, as he passed on. " One o'
them tickles the screamer great! T'other
thumps the skin -tub some, I tell yer 1"
The doctor glared at our pilot in mild
amazement,
"1 really ara at a lose to comprehend the
terms you have, just made tie° of, young
man," he said. '6 Doubtless they are collo-
quialiems, but 1 irthrid-be gratified if you
would explain what 'tickling the ecreamer '
and thumping the skin -tub' may be."
"Hub !" snorted in great. disgust.
"-Them fellers belong to the band down in
the city, and one o' 'em plays the fiddle and
Tether plays the drum. Now d'ver take ?"
" I understand," replied the doctor,
meekly.—From The Youth's Companion.

Not So Bad.
While the author of " Reindeer,. Dogs
and Suowehoes," was sailing down the Amur
River he was overtaken by a thunder -storm,
and finally was compelled to seek a landing.
The boatman told him that there were no
habitations in the neighborhood, and he ex-
pected no better shelter than a rook or tree;
but as the boat, grated upon the beach he
heard the welcome sound of a dog's bark.
In answer to his ehoute a man with a torah
appeared, and led the traveller and his two
companions to a feintierary camp of a party
of Russian soldiers. !Following their led-
er, the benighted wanderers dodged into
a low doorway, where they beheld a egight
which, as the author says, caused their
spirits to " sink to zero."
The small enclosure, ;eight by twelve feet,
was literally crammed with bunks, each oc-
cupied by two soldiers. With characteris-
tic hospitality the soldiers insisted upon
giving np their beds to the newecomers'and
not without some compunctions one bunk
was finally accepted.
"The bunk, says the author, "stood
against the miserable bark wanted the but,
through which the wind howled and the
rain splashed all night. I volunteered,
nevertheless, to sleep next the wall, and
took pains to lie on my side, so as not to
occupy too much space-"
"The captain, a fat Dutchmau, weighing
about one hundred and ninety pounds, oc-
cupied the middle, while Mahood, by brac-
ing one foot against the bunk opposite,
managed to keep on the front of the bed.
"The torch was barely extinguished when
a deep snore like a peal of distant thunder,
issued from the captain's throat, and he roll-
ed heavily upon his back, nearly 'forcing me
through the bark wall by the unexpected '
ohenge of position; to remonstrate Was use-
less; the Furies could not have awakened
him.
" For many long steeple's hours I lay, as.
sailed on one side by the cold wind and
"plashing rain drops, and on the other I sus:
taining the huge corpus of my neighbor. By
degrees, too, the covering vanished, in
spite of importunities to my bedfellows for
a little mercy. -
"When at last, day dawned, it was a 'joy.
oils moment, notwithstanding my raiment
was perfectly saturated and myself speech -
les & from hoarseness. Mehood was but lit-
tle better off, having been obliged to lie
awake all night in order to retain his posi-
tion in bed. Poor fellow ! I could have
pitied hinn, but there was no room in either
of our minds for ansdother feeling than that
of indignation when we discovered the cause
of our discomforts.
"There lay the captain flat upon his
back, completely enveloped from head to
foot in every bit of the covering, as com-
pactly as an Egyptian mummy. To height-
en our disgust, his first ejaculation upon
opening his eyes was, " Well, these accom-
modations are not so had, after alt; I don't
know when I have slept better."

Boarding His Magpie.
Dr. Glynn, a benevolent but eccentric
physician of Cambriclgie, England, was once
consulted by a poor 'Woman about her only
son, too ill to be brought to the doctor's
office. The materitel anxiety PO affected the
doctor that he went several times to see the
boy, though the roads were almost impassi-
ble for a carriage, and supplied him with
bark and port wine at his own expense.
The boy recovered, and one morning the
mother entered the doctor's rooni, bringing
a large wicker basket.
" We can't get no rest, doctor," said she,
"for thinking of the trouble you have had;
and so my boy resolved this morning to -
send you his pet magpie,"
The doctor looked at he bird, retnarked
that he was a fine fellow, and then contin-
ued :
"1 am ' very thankful to your son, and
very proud el his present; but I am a good
deal from home, and my servant is a care
lees fellow, and I am afraid that he might
forget to feed him. I must therefore re-
quest you to -keep him for me, and I will
allow you a shilling a week for his board as
long as he lives."
The old woman acoepted the good man's
thoughtful suggestion, and was paid the
first month's board in advance. --The Youth's

One morning when Benjamin Franklin
was busy in the press room on his newspa-
per' a lounger stepped into the bookstore
andspent an hour or more looking over the
books. Finally he seemed to settle upon
one, and asked the clerk the price.
" One dollar," the clerk replied. ,
"One dollar," echoed the lounger.
"Can't you take less price thaa that ?"
"One dollar is the price," the clerk
answered. The would-be purchaser looked
over the books awhile longer and inquired:
"Is Mr. Franklia in ?"
" Yes, he's busy in the printing office,"
the clerk replied.
"Well, I want to see him," said the
The clerk told Mr. Franklin that a gen-
tleman was in the etore waiting to see him.
,Franklin soon appeared, and the stranger
said :
"What is the lowest, Mr. Franklin, that
you can take for that book ?".
"Ocie dollar and a quarter," was the
prompt and decisive answer,
"One dollar and a quarter Why your
clerk only asked me a dollar just now.'
" True, ' replied Mr. Franklin, " and I
could have better afforded to take a dollar
than leave my work."
The man seemed surprised, and, wishing
to end a parley of his own seeking, said :
"Well, come now, tell your lowest price
for this book."
" One dollar and. a hall."
" A dollar and a half! Why, you offer-
ed it yourself for a dollar and a quarter."
" Yes," said Mr. Franklin, coolty, " and
I had better have taken that price then,
than to take even a dollar and a half now."
This was a way of trade which took this
men quite by surprise. Without a word he
laid the money on the counter, took the
book and left the store. --Exchange.
Heating By Electricity.
In some of the hotels in thewest a system
of heat regulation, .which is certainly novel,
is earried ont. For instance, a guest occu-
pying room 156 asks for heat. The order is
transmitted to a particular person'the type-
writer of the hotel generally. She geeto
a :switch board and connection is given
electrioally with that room-, allowing the
heat to pass into it. The occupant of the
room is, perhaps, particular. A hoablood-
ed person wishes merely to keep from freez-
ing; -another wants a high temperature.
Each can have his wish, for a thermostat
with a pointer is on the wall, and the room
will keep itself automatically as desired.
The regulation is seventy degrees but it
can be departed from as etated—Hard-
ware.
.Unpleasantly Funny.
The New York Tribune relates an advert -
tare which lately befel a young amateur
ventriloquist and magician of that city. lie

Me company is much sought after among
the people of his own set. One day he re-
ceived a note from a friend, a lady, begging
him to come to her house the next evening.
The children were to have a party,sand it
worrld be a great favor if he would come
over and entertain them.
On his way up town the next afternoon,
therefore, he bought a mask of a huge don-
key's head, the big jaw of which was so ar-
ranged that the pulling of a string caused it
to utter a life -like and horrible bray.
That evening,an hour or so after the time
appointed, he went to the house, threw off
his overcoat in the hall ' and ran up -stairs,
putting on his mask as he went. Through
the eye -hole he oould see dimly that a good
many people were assembled in the room at
the head of the stairway.
With a terrible hee-haw he threw him-
self on his hands and knees and burst into
the room. An unexpected hush and a sound
of startled exclamations sent a chill to his
bones. Something was wrong. He pulled
off the mask and scrambled to his feet.
Horror of horrors,! He was sureounded
by entire !strangers, who naturally looked
THF HURON
upon him as if he had taken leave of hie
senses. A titter ran round the room, and
pretty.young woman, evidently the mistreee
of the house, stepped forward to receive the
intruder's apologies.
The explanation was simple. He had
mistaken the house, which was one of a
block all alike. The servant who had let
him in took it for grantedthat he was an he-
vited guest—and there he was?
He made a hasty exit with a sound of supi
'pressed laughter in his ears, and though he
want to the house where he was expected
he hadrno heart to put on again the donkey
mask.—From The Youth's Companion.

Mailing Christmas Packages.
There are a number of regulations gov
erning the sending of parcels by mail. Th
following apply to all places within the
United States, Mexico and Canada. Al
packages must be wrapped so that an ex-
amination is possible by the postal authori-
ties, and it is well to facilitate this b
wrapping with this end in view, althoug
this does -not mean that they must be lef
open. For this reason, unless a package i
sent by registered mail at letter rates, i;
must not be sealed. Use only a good quality
of wrapping paper, as the cheaper varieties
are apt to tear when the package is opene4
for examination. Tie the twine so that the
knots may be opened readily, and leave ituf
.ficient extra length for refastening. Liquid'
are allowed to be sent only when the cases
In which they are packed have been sub-
mitted for examination and approval to the
post -office authorities. Explosive and in-
flammable materials are in the nature of
things forbidden, as is the transportation in
the mails ofdead or live animal, fruit or
vegetables. Candies and cakes 'should be
secured in 'tin boxes. Pocket knives aie
permitted when they are securely bound
with wire to prevent any possibility of the
blades opening. China and glass are tram -
ported when securely packed. Jewelry or
other articles of value should be packed in
cotton in a box, and registered, for greater
safety.

Liquid Fuel.
It is significant in these days i of coal
strikes to find a trade paper like the Bir-
mingham Hardware Journal dealing editor-
ially with tha !water of fuel in this fashion :
"The question of liquid fuel is an important
one, and it is only regaired that the price of
coal a hould be forced tip a little way to
settle it. The convenience of oil fuel is
very great'; it is easily carried, and the
trouble of storing it is yeciuced to a mini-

engines df all kind i being adapted to its use.

limited, and all that 18 required to ensure
its extended use is a slight reduction in
price, which reductioe the merchants may
see their way to making When they have a

TH A.T DOCTOR'S LETTER.
An Important Communication from a
Promiuent Physician that Excites Wide-
spread Interest. Its Contents will be
Good News to Sufferers from Kidney'
Disease.
—,..
Toaosaro,December 4th, 1893.—The letter from Dr.
E. A. Rose, a fae-simile of which appeared lately in
the leading Canadian papers, is well worthy of con-
sideration. The doctor lives- in Portlavd, Ontario.
where he has a large practice. He stated in his letter
that he had been mired of diabetes and blood poison-
ing by Dodd's Kidney Pills. As be is well-known
throughout the province as a reliable man, his state-
ment stamps the remedy as one of remarkable
Value. Kidney diseases are more prevalent to -day
than any other, and Dr. Rose's experience will prove
of use to many other victims of kidney disorder, by
directing them to a reliable remedy.
