went home to dinner. The Pudding was
made, the coat in prime order, the unsatis
factory shirts ripped apart, and Nellie,
though pale and tired looking, came to the
door With smile, to greet her husband.
"Why, Harry, what on earth have you
got there?'' she exclaimed as Mr.. Arden
came up the steps, really staggering under
the weight of two or three blossOmirg ger

brought from down town with incredible
difficulty.

Nellie straightway gave him pleased, hap

"And now," said he, after dinner, "there

made very cheaply, and when the luxury
OF ice in summer is once enjoyed, it will
not be readily given up. If no better
structure can be erected, build an ice room
in one corner Of the wood house, or in any
shed where room can be spared. The
north east corner is BEST Set row OF
upright posts, a foot apart, one foot from
the inner sides of the building, and two
rows Of posts, a foot apart, for the other
two sides of the room; make the enclos
ure say eight or ten feet square. Cover
these with rough boards or slabs, and fill
the space between with spent tan bark.
Lay down loose fo,r, and cover foot
deep with straw When ice is formed,
select that which is pure, clear and hard,
cut it into pieces Of convenient size, and
pack it closely in the room. Leave six
inches space between the zee and the sides
of the room, and iii it with saw dust Al
so, cover with saw dust foot thick, and
fill up to the roof with straw. Packed in
this way, ice enough to supply family of
moderate size has been kept safely the
season through. Maine Farmer.

Highland Dog TraiMer.~
remember on one occasion, when Allan
was about to leave the Manse, he put his
dogs, for my amusement, through some Of
their drill, as he called it. They we're all
sleeping around the kitchen fire, the pups
freed from the girdle, wandering at liberty,
when Allan said-"GO out one Of you, my
children, and let me know if the day is fair
or wet" A dog instantly arose, while the
others kept their places, and with erect
tail went out Returning, it placed itself
by Allan's side, so that he might, by pass
ing his hand along its back, discover,,wheth-
er it was wet or dry. Co he again said,
'and tell the foolish child"-one of the
pups-"who is frolcking outside the house,
to come in." Another dog arose, departed,
and returned, wagging his tail, and looking
up to Allan's face. "Oh, he wont come,
won't he? Then go and bring him in,
and, if necessary, by force" The dog
again departed, but this time carried the
yclping pup in his mouth and laid it at
Allan's feet "Now, my dear children, let
US bcgone," said Allan, rising as if to pro
ceed on his journey. But at this moment
two terriers began to fight-though it SEEM
cd but mimic battle-while ar old saga
cious looking collie never moved from his
comfortable place beside the fire. TO un-
derstand this scene, though, you must
know that Allan had taken offense at the
excellent sheriff Of the district because Of
his having refusing him some responsible
situation on his property, and to revenge
himself had trained his doPs to act the
drama which was now in progress. Ad
dressing the apparently sleeping dog whom
he calls the sheriff." he said: Here you

sons by which in every house he could
turn his supposed enemy into ridicule. A
farmer, irritated by this kind of dogmatc
insolence, ordered Allan TO leave his farm.
'Leave it, forsooth," replied Allan, with a
sarcastic sneer. 'Could l possibly, sir
take it with me, be sure would do so
rather than leave it to you"

THE LETTER.
BY HRLRN l.. BosTwIcK.

oh. the long expected letter,
In the dear familiar hand
Twice thousand miles it traversed
O'er the waters and the land.
Bring my rocking chair and scissors,
watch the baby, close the door!
Let me have no Interruptions,
Till I've read it twice or more!
Now, warrant you, he wroteit
In a business study. brown!
For the "Mrs." looks like ''Messrs,"
Aud the stamp Is upside down!
Pity he's so careless-giving
All his lines an uphill turn :
Yet. I think the signs good one
Let rue open it and learn.
GYours receiyed'--a fair beginning;
"Health improved'-good news received!
"Quite cont ntented''--that's but $3.50;
..Time flies swiftly" an! heed!
"Fshing. gunning"- warrant
When he shoots, a man will fall
"CuiSine chdrmant"-- ''pic-nics, ladies'
Exclamation points and all
Really, sir, this looks like business
In a somewhat novel line
In my next I'll surely tell him
OF that charming trip of mine.
Of the steamer IS mirth and music,
Forfeit games and dancing free,
And the moonlight premenading
OF the ''merrie compans!"
All! what's this "Were you but with me -
Darling children-dolls and drums
Paroquet with splendid feathers -
What Babel when he comes
"Isle ST. Mary--lovely sunsets
There's poet lost in him
"Lonely Sabbaths-weary ABSENCE"
"lIome, sweet home" is blurred and dim
"Love'-s'farewell would it we're double.
Choicest blessn gs crown the man
Who, inspired of good, invented
The epistolary plan!
Bless the ship, the car, the m ail-coach,
Bless the hands, wher'ver they be,
That have brought this little missive
Twice q thousand miles to me.
