And her plsnks still held together.
And thus, though the hovling tempest showed
No signs ot timlautioa,

brilliance of costly gems. diamonds, and pre-.

Driiiiahce oi costly gems, diamonds, and pre-
cious stones, a wonderous collection.
MAUD, these shall be yours-they are fit
ting my queen-these fabrics, and he pointed
to the brocades, and tissues, and laces, you
will reign supreme in heart that adores
you the half Of my throne shall be yours |;
the hearts Of millions for all will love you.
Maud, do not drive me to despair seldom
has monarch so pleaded But she stood
stcadfast.
j do not prize the splendors, the jewels,
or the throne,' she said, with tremulous
sweetness so much us one little word from
my Ralph. Oh sire, do not detain me, he
is breaking his heart at my absence, and she
wept bitterly.
The king grew hard, relentless, and CRUEL
His very soul seemed turning to adamant |;
murder was in his thought, for he hated the
man she loved.
No. he thundered-'no, again no! You
are here, you are in my power and here you
shall stay
A scream so shrill, so ear-piercing sounded
that-well, rubbing his eyes violently, Ralph
found himself sitting upright on the hard
bench in the tap.room, and saw the bar.maid,
who laughed at the top Of he voice.
Such a scrimaging as ye must ha' been in,
to- she cried, as soon as she could regain
her gravity; twas worth the price to Lam
caster Fair jest to watch your motions, man.
What ha, 20 been dreaming about, fight
or bargain? oh it was sport to see ye;
and again she ralapsed into wilder peal Of
laughter.
Very slowly Ralph regained his scattered
senses; hut in his strange dream he had gained
a new delicious experience. For when, a,
he ncared his fathers house, ho met Maud
coming from her school, his sleepy eyes grew
bright with pleasure.
She, looking down, only said,
'0h! Ralph, you have been to the tap
room again
'Only promise me you'll love me, Maud,
and III promise never to 60 in the tap-room
again, Maudr
Sho looked up. lie remembered that
glance-he had seen in his drcam-he knew
now what she had known fora long, long
time. she did love him. Maud often wonder
ed afterward at Ralph's hucncy upon the
subject OF kings and queens: but he did not
tell her of his dream till long after they were
married.

DEcEsBES.-Lay plans for the futnre.
Arrange the farm for regular rotation. Let
regularity and system be fully carried out
Examine the practice Of the very best and
most successful farmers in the country, by
that most convenient and cheap method, the
reading Of agricultural papers, and use judg-
ment and discretion in reducing to practice
the many valuable hints thus obtained. Pro-
vide good shelter for domestic animals. Pur.
sue strict regularity in feeding and watering.
Have good feeding racks to prevent waste.
Chop co.n-stalks fine, that cattle may eat
all. Mix cut or chopped hay with straw
and with meal. Keep all stables clean, neat,
and comfortable. Give sheep good shelter,
good hay, and chopped roots. Let stock be
regularly salted. See that hay is not vast
ed under foot. Remember that filth and
thrift are eternal oppOnents.-lHarris's Ru-

4 NoBLE BoY.-On Monday last, son
Of DIR. Mettlcr broke through thin spot Of
ice on Little River. Hartford, Connecticut,
and was borne by the current under the Ice
below. Charlie Champlin, boy thirteen
years Of age. witnessed the accident, and ran
to the rescue. Seeing the body floating
along under the thin. Transparent ice, he
quickly ran a short distance below, seated
himself where a cake Of old ice made it
strong. kicked with his heels hole through
the thin ice, just ahead Of the floating boy.
and stuck his legs through. The drowning
boy clutched his foot firmly, when Charlie
drew him to the opening, seized him with
his hands, and pulled him out alive lie

Well does the Hartford Pres say, Charlie

mind, the ingenious method adopted. which
not one in hundred would have thought
Of, and the quick, prompt and vigorous nc.

jumped into the Connecticut River. and res
cued other boys struggling in deep winter.
