A Passing Acquaintance. In a mountain hotel a gay group of boarders were seated about in hall and par- lor, engaged in fancy work, reading, .or light games, while a cheery fire burned brightly on the hearth, for it was late in the season. " We are just a nice party now," said one young lady, looking up from her lapful of shaded silks "1 hope nobody else will come !" " Except to fill vacancies as we drop off,' said a gentleman, as he laid aside his letters. " You will see two yacaist chairs to- morrow." "Very well, was the reply. "If you must go, we will spread ourselves and - keep the table full. If we can't have Ales. Bruce atid you, we don't want anyone." The next morning the home-botuid trav- elers left on the early stage, and at the last moment another guest deeicied to accom- pany them. The pcbrty, remaining went out, some to rambling in the pine woods, some to the concert in tie casino. Returning towards dinner time,, they found that a telegram had been received from Miss Milicent Paul, be- speaking aroom. There was a shout of delight on reading the telegram. Milicent Paul was known to some of the party,. and two of theta had been her schoolinates at -a fashionable seminary three years before. "Milicent will be the roseleaf on our cup. of happiness," said one; "and how fortun- ate that there is room for her at our table." The dinner bell rang, and the merry group betook themselves to, the dining -room. Two chairs were turned down at the table. "Who has come ?" the guests inquired of one another. As they took their seats, a man and his wife eatered, in a hesitating manner, and were given the two chairs. Swift glances were directed at them, and side looks ex- changed. They were evid.ently plain, hard- working people, entirely unaccustomed to traveling and to betel life. In an instant the original party became a clique. They hard- ly concealed their dislike of the new comers, who had brought among them a personality that jarred on all their sense of what was stylish, conventional, and agreeable. The twe strangers ate heartily, helped them- selves to what they wanted, finished their meal and left the table, before the rest of the company had reached their nuts and raisins. - "Did you ever ?" "I call it an outrage, forcing such people on us." "The plowman had better stay at home and plow." "Rio ha ds took away my appetite." "I hope th y are not going to etay over night." 'he offending couple spent the afternoon walking about to see the views, and then sat out in the piazza till supper time. After supper the criticism recommenced. They're going to stay. Their trunk has gone up to No. 14. What Will Milicent Paul say? She will have to sit next to them. "She'll freeze them with one glance when she sees that hand reaching in front of i.er for butter." "Oh, cotrie now," said thebrother of the last speaker; "you knew they needed the butter, and you should have passed it, see- ing the waiter was not on hand." "Hush ! I'm too provoked for anything. We were such a nice party till those folks pushed in. And when Millicent is wining too ! It just spoils the table." Next day, while the newcomers were out, Milicent Paul arrived, amid the welcoming exclamations of her friends. She was a tall, slender girl, with an animated coun- tenance, fashionably dressed, carrying gold eye glasses, and holding her head aloft in a way peculiarly her own. She had plenty to say, said it well, and was at once the centre of everything. At dinner time she took the vacant seat, and was just receiving her plate of soup, when the much criticised couple came in. The guests were all consciously watchful, but Miss Peal seemed to notice nothing. She was giving a vivid description of her jour- ney. Suddenly she paused an instant. "1 beg your pardon !" she said pleasantly as her embarrassed neighbor attempted, rather awkwardly, to reach the salt, and, placing it ebnveniently near, she resumed her descriptioo. " May- 1 trouble you for the pepper ?" she asked him a little later ; " not black, I pre- fetaavhite. Thank you." She spoke in ex- actly the Same tone as when she "asked handsome. Young Mr. Waring across the table if he knew when the mail as-ent out. He admired her none the less for it. "She had a broader outlook than the rest of us," he thought to himself. A trip to the Notch was planned for the neat day, to gosin the morning and return at night. There were enough to fill two mountain wagons. No, not quite enough Those who counted found there would be oom for two more. "Don't meation it, or Mr. Wilbur and his wife may offer to go.," aaid-oneladar,W a touch of irritation in her Voice. "Ol1 We Cala- hales them," said on the girls who had been Miss Paul's sch mate "Can we; Milieent 7" "Why not?" leaked Miss Paul.• "Oh -! why, because -you knoW doubt they are eXcellent, people, but h they would look along with. us !" " My -de- tar Hetty,' said INfisa Paul, "I be narrow? Why voluntarily live itt groove? 1 have found, the most interest people in the most unexpected places.. D . turn your back upon yeurfelloas creatur Mr. Waring stepped into the , wh the Wilburs stood .diffidently examinin last year's register, "Would you like to take a trip to Notch to -morrow with the .reat of the p ty ?" he asked cordially. "We would like it very much," said man. "Very much indeed -a" echoed his wife. "The expense is three . dollars for e 8-e"That's all eight," said the man. " And now which of us will have to next to them?" murmured the girls in parlor. Bat when the teams were ready the n morning, it was Miss Paul who gracefully a unconcernedly -climbed over the wheel a sat by the Wilburs. • It was not that preferred the seat, except as she felt stinctively that they -Were at a -little clis vantage with others, and it was, perha one secret of her perfect bearing in soc circles that her private rule of politen .was the little old-fashioned couplet: " Politeness is to- do and eay The kindest thing in the kindest way." The party was a merry one; they sa songs and waved the hotel -colors as th drove along, each wagon drawn by fo splendid. white horses. - They stopped the lake to enjoy boating and to hear t echo. While they floated. on the water, M Paul sang two or three Venetian boat son to the great delight of the party. - "I -learned those of our dark -eyed go dollen" she said. The Notch was etas grandestthat da and the mountain ra." nges stood high a clear against the cloudless sky. There we other parties out, a tally -ho eoachful, a several teams coming from different dir tions; but noontide found them all eifh dining at the nearest hotel or lunching the woods close by. A party of Southerners, driving up in surrey, espied Milicent Paul, and hailed h enthusiastically. She brought them to b own party under the trees, and said as s preeeuted them : " These travelers are from Georgia. W met in Washingtonlast winter and becan Mende' Mr. Wilbur experienced a slight meat shock. His father had lost both legs int war, and he himself had never thought of Southerner except as a foe at heart. Y here were these people bowing to him wi the rest, in cordial pleasant fashion. Language had not been given to Mr. WI bur for the purpose of concealing h thought. He looked earneStly at ti stranger nearest him. "1 never expected to meet a Southe main" he said, itt. blunt tones; " my_fath was made a cripple in the war." - "Aid mine lost his life," replied ti Southern man gently. "But it is all ov now. You and I -have one country." "So We have -so we have !" said Mr.Wi bur, and the -two shook hands silently. Th cene escaped thenntice of the rest of th ompaaiy, who had .at once engaged in liv y conversation: but to both men it wa ne of those little strokes that help to chis haracter.

"Are you going to correspond with them Iilicent ?" asked her old school -mate ea.singly. "Hetty, clear'," said Milicent, " yot eally must open your eyes wider and se he world you live in ; you will find it re ay you. The Wilburs are only passin equaintances, like many others; we may ever meet them again. But in conversing found out one or two little things which ay interest you. • When Mr. and Mrs Tilbur were married, ten years' ago, hi other had just died, and there wer rot -hers mod sisters besides the crippled thee to be cared for. Mrs. Wilbur am er husband put their shoulders cheerfully the wheel and worked together. It was ma life and farm work. The father died a ear ago, and the brothers and sisters now -ke care of themselves. So this year,when tying and canning were over, the Wilburs ecided to take a little holiday and see e mountains. Neither of -them ever sea mountain before.It has, been the great rent of their lives: I cannott tell you hots ad I am that they Wept with as yesterday. • "So am I," said Hetty. "Another little thing peri: out, too.

Why, girls y I always look at that use and garden when I travel by that ad, and have often wondered who lived ere. Now I know !"

It was be - by Martha Washington and completed Mrs. Harrison, who'decorated with her n hands enough pieces to finish out the ssing numbers. The largest addition to set was made by President Arthur, and paid for out of his private purse t and s. Cleveland, during her first term as at Lady in the Land, presented to the lite House a few very large pieces, which 1 been given to her as wedding gifts, evi- itly with the. idea that they would re- in in the President's house, as they were too large to be used upon an ordinary vate table. Mrs. Wm.. Astor has the and famous set. It was given to her by husband about twelve years ago,and she es for it and cherishes it more tenderly n any other of. her private possessions. e even employs a man to. look after it. s famous set of dishes is of pure • -oold. d the gold is so unusually free of all er substances that it scratches if a knife lrawn across it. Therefore the set is ely used in courses that have game or at 'served .with them, There are 30 ces in the set, and the price paid by Mr. or .in England was 860,000, or about ,000. It is probable that the gold set 1 descend to the sou and heir of the ily and his handsome young wife, al - ugh Mrs. John Jacob Astor has nearly a plete gold set of her own in different es which were presented to her at her ding.

The collection began when she came to the White House to live -as the bride of Frederick Grant during her father-in-law's lut term there. Her father, thez the wealthy Mr. Honore, of Chica-gtegave he a very valuable dinner and tea see for her iininediate use if she should go to housekeeping, and General G -rant con- tinually added to the possessions of his fa- vorite and dev ted daughter-in-law. Dar- ing her four ye trs abroad, as the wife of the Austrian rliaister, she reeived many odd pieces as gi ts. An importer of expen- we china says that American housewives like fine china, better, and pay more for it, than any other housewives in the world,a,nd that they are goad judges of it. • AN IMPORTANT INCIDENT AT A. COUNTRY AUCTION SALE. I Quite recently a country store stock meta soli off by auction in lots to suit purphasers. The sale, wh.cli had been well adirertised by circulars tlistributed " througheat the country, drew a large crowd of-' sturdy farmers and their good wives; the bidding wastfast and spirited, and good prices were realize.d for all Juseful and staple goods., Amongst the vast variety of articles put up for sale were two lots of package dyes for household Idyeing. The auctioneer ah- nounced thatelie would first dispose of the " Diamond Dyes," goods that every farmer and farmer's wife knew well and favorably. The women, being most interested in these goods, did the j bidding, and in ten minutes' time, some six gross of the "Diamond Dyes" Were sold to anxious buyers. The other dyes were then brought for- ward, and iatroduced by some oriental name. Said the auctioneer: "I give you the name of t lese dyes, but I know little about their m nufacture or qualities; come, give me a bid any price." There was io response -not a bid to en- courage the auctioneer's heart. Seeing that time was bei g lost, and anxious to get rid of these dye at any price, the auctioneer, in a joking stay, said : "Von surely want, your garden fences and borne painted • if these dyes aae not good enough to color your dresses. shawls, jac-kete, coats, silks and ribbone, they will surely do for common is ix. wood paint' g." The idea was a novel one ---it Was a reve- lation -and eemed to meet with the favor of a few, and for a small price, the entire stock of Worthless dyes designated by a high sounding mane, was sold to one farm- er, ,who was heartily laughed at. There is a more important moral to be de- duced from the results Of the auction sale just referred to. The moral taught is that poor and werthless dyes, wherever sold, are dear at anyiptice-yeven when used for com- mon fence painting. / The ".Diamond Dyes" are well known, popular and always reliable; they sell ev- erywhere and under all circumstances, and give wonderful results in restoring to beauty and usefulness old and- faded articles of !wearing apparel. "Diamond Dyes" save many dollars each year -in every farmer's home. The Spelling Match. , Ten little ehil ren standing in a line, " F -u -l -y, full then there were nine.

I am se often asked to tell the first thought I had of the Sisterhood that re- sulted in the Order of the King's Daugh- ters, write a Mrs. Bottome, the President of the Order, in the Ladies' Home Journal. . I was crossing the Atlantic Ocean. I had met on deck some young fellows that had been trampiug through Switzerland, and learned they were from some theological seminary. One morning I was Startled at hearina°of the death of one of these young men. He had been flintily a few days, and I learned that through his sickness, while delirious, be had constantly called for his mother. AS I paced the deck in the days that followed, and looked up at the boat that swung day after day with his body in it, if I had only been in a Sisterhood wear- ing a badge that would have donated ser- vice to humanity, they . might have asked me if I would not like to, see the young man who called for his mother, for I learned that no wonlan had seen the youth during his illness, .and I pictured to myself how glad the mother would have been if I could have written to her and told her I had seen her boy. At that hour I wished for a Sis- terhood that should not be known by any distinct dress, but by some kind of a badge. I did not speak of this thought to any one. A • few months passed and Dr. Edward Everett Hale called to see me on business. As he was passing out he said: "Mrs. Bottome, I wonder you do not found a Sis- terhood.," And the word Sisterhood took my thought S back to the steamer. Not many days after I invited four friends -of mine who had been associated -with me, and evv Shortening If you have a sewing machine, a clothes wringer or a carpet sweeper (all new inventions of modern times), WS proof that you can see the usefulness of new things, 9lene Is A NEW SHORTENING, and -every housekeeper who is interested in the health and comfort of her family should give it a trial.

FAIRBANK COMPANY, Wallington and Ann Ste., MONTREAL. they came to my home, and we decided each to invite a friend,a coneecrated woman, and to meet the week fo:lowing and there would then be ten of us, and I felt sure Dr. Hale would lend us his idea of "ten times one is tee." When later I wrote to him, he answered, "You are welconie, Mrs. Bottom -ea to any idea of nine that you can use." The lovely woman, Mrs. Theodore Ir- ving, who suggested the name for the new Sisterhood of service, "The King's Daugh- ters," has passed into the beautiful beyond. I was made President of that first ten, not because I was better fitted to be presi- dent than some of the others present, but simply because the forming of such a ten was my suggestion, and later, as you know, the word " tens " was dropped and the word "circles" substituted. In all the circles there is a president, a secretary and a treasurer. Gaieties. "Mamma says the cat is full of lectricity." Dick : " Of course.

Dean Stanley 4ice said to a little boy,. "If I tell you I wits born in the second half of 1815, can you 011 me why I am called Arthur ?" The name of the hero of Water- loo was then 011 01ll men's lips.. When nine years of .age Arthur was sent to a preparatory s hool. He was bright and clever'bat he cou d not learn arithmetic. Dr. BoYcl write in Longman's Magazine that the Master o the school, Mr. Rawson, declared that Art, ur was the stupidest boy at -figures who eveir came under his care save only one, wh.o was yet more hopeless, and was unable tc grasp simple addition and multiplication. Stanley retnain d unchanged to the end. At Rugby he rosef to every kind of emin- ence, except that of doing "sumo." In due time he took la first-class at Oxford, where the classic, and Aristotle's Ethics were the books in which a student for hon- ors :must be proficient. He would not haVe done as well at Cambridge, whose senior wrangler must be an accomplished mathe- matician. On the contrara , that other stupid boy, "more hopeless "than Stanley, developed a phenomenal mas-Oery of arkluneties. He became the great,finance minister of after years, William E. Gladstone, who could make a budget speech of three hours' length, and fuJi c4 figures, which so inter- ested the member of the House -of Commons that they filled tI4e hall, standing and sit - tin till midnight he story has taro morals. One is that a, boy may be stupid in one study, and bright i all the remaining studies. The other moral is, that a boy may ove come by hard study his natural repugnan :e to a certain .study, and even become an eminent master of it. - Youth s Compani n. - 73 ALL. THE YEAR ROUND, just as thoroughly and as certainly at one time as an- other, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery purifies the blood. You don't need it at any special season. But when any eruption appears, or you feel weari- ness and depres- sion that's a sign of impure blood, then you need this medicine, and nothing else. The ordinary "Spring medicines" and blood - purifiers can't compare with it. The "Discovery" promotes every bodily function, puts on sound,healthY flesh, and cleanses, repairs and invigorates your whole system. In the most stubborn Skin Diseases, in every form of Scrofula -even in Con- sumption (or Lung -scrofula) in its earlier stages -and in every blood -taint and dis- order, it is the only guaranteed remedy.

CARD OF THANKS While thankinebthe people of the town and surrounding country for the encouragement they have given" ne the way of very liberal patronage, ve. desire to call their attention to a foe facts concerning our business metho‘ not generally -Olown. It has been and is our constant endeavor to turn out the very best class of work, and Vila we succeed in doing by using nothing but the choicest materials and emyloy- ine°none but skilled workmen. While doing this, however, we wish it distinctly understood that the piece, charged are much lower than thew heretofore prevailing. This is aecount- ed for by the fact, that doing a /nub, larger business than our competitors, we are' satisfied with muth stnaller margins. Machine made harness se. any price is dear, and, when that coupled with poor material, you esie depend upon getting a harness that is absolutely worthless. We utanufse- ture the best harones from •$10 up tee be obtained itt the'4)rovince, and to in- tending purchasers would extend 4. hearty invitation to call and see Mr. Charles Aitzel, or the undersigned, oa the premises, when their wants will bi. considerately taken care of, M.
