face, she stopped her work, and gave
him a smiling welcome.
"Now, what brings the man here ?n
she mentally queried, as her bodily lips
cheerily said:
"Come in, neighbor-come in. You
look hot and tired. Come in, and have
a cool drink OF my new cider"
Nothing 10th, the good deacon ac-
cepted the invitation, and entered the
cosy sitting-room.
And the simple draught of cider
quaffed from the hands of the smiling
hebe who offered it, became a goblet of
nectar Mt for the gOds-a very "elixir of
They ehatted on Indifferent subjects
for few moments, and then ensued a
pause.
"Now, what can the man want? Has
he found the courage to propose at
last ?' the widow was asking herself
And the deacon was asking himself
''Now, how shall begin this business,
and what will she say ?'
Whatever she would say, she was de-
termined not to do one thing to help
him. She sat demure as a little Qua
keress, so at last the worthy deacon was
forced TO make a laundering beginning.
"Sister wilkins, I-a-I came over
l-to-to-"
'Yes, 1 see you came over" said she,
with an encouraging smile.
"Well, came TO tell you-yOu see
Sister Wilkins, my Rebecca thinks OF
going to New York"
"Ah, indeed, To visit her cousin ?''
asked the widow.
"Yes'm. And, of course, YOU know,
I flea II r.orrnr-ffr1 hngx~ wi n,
Fact is, they don't see how they can
get through. So they sent me over to
! Toto"
''Io ask me TO come and help them ?''
suggested the smiling widow, pittying
his embarrassment.
"Well o-not exactly. They
wouldn't think of putting you 10 so
much trouble. But-fact is, Sister VIII
kins, they want to borrow your sewing
machine"
The widow blushed and trembled, but
she took sudden resolve not to let so
good an opportunity slip.
'If | don't bring this bashful fellow
to the point, now, maybe he'll never
come" she thought, and aloud She said:
"Deacon, do you remember what said
when | first got my machine ,"
"No, what was it?" asked the dea-
con.
'I said whoever took that machine
out of this house, had to take me, too,
and l meant it."
The deacon got up and walked over to
her chair.
"Well, Sally Wilkins, will you let me
take it,"
''If you can accept the condition."
stammered the little woman, blushing
redder than the reddest apple in her own
orchard.
And infer that the good deacon, hav-
ing once overcome his bashfulness, de-
cided that he could "aecept the condi-
tion," for when he reached home, and
Martha Jane called out:
.Father, did you get the machine ?"
He answered, cheerily:

Powerful Tonic,

Promoting the Appetite and Invigorating the
Whole digestive Apparatus, thus building up
anu strengthening the system, while at the
same time the volatile principle, being alb
S0rbeu IN the blood, acts specifically on the
lation and system
There are few remedies known to the Medical
IruiesSiOn which will remove the Rheumatic
Poison nom the blood, but whose action is so
powerful IN depressing the system of the al
ready enieebled Rheumatic patient that their
use has TO be abandoned before specific effects
are obtainable, and hence the want Of success
IN treating this prevalent and consequently
heretofore tncurable disease. Unlike these
medicines, already known, the UNK WEED
REMEDY although producing as active and as
powerful effects on the blood and system in re-
moving the Rheumatic Poison, also possesses a
strong Tonic and RccupCrating Element which
admits Of its continued use even by the most
delicate and debilitated. Thus we have the
combination Tor the first time Of these two
necessary elements in one remedy, which ac-
counts fOTits superior and nevcr-failing curative
effects in rheumatism, Rheumatic GOut and
Rheumatic Pains OF all kinds.

cal efforts of mirth-exhausted women.
They had all witnessed my chase after
the wrong train; now fearful lest indeed
L should overtake it, and then rejoiced
at my evident lack of what jockeys call
bottom as my speed began to slacken
and my chances with the locomotive
began to grow small by degrees and
beautifully less. They had witnessed
the blowing up administered the
depot master, the strange proerastina-
tion in starting for the right train, until
at length it had actually started and |
had entered npon a second stern chase
Then they feared / was left again, as
they looked with breathless interest at
the unequal contest of legs versus a
locomotive. They had witnessed my
final triumph, but how gracefully l was
welcomed, and with what feelings / re-
eeived their peculiar congratulations, /
leave my hearers to imagine. ."-Rer
