man we found on the road ha
crept out Of this hovel on seem;
the car coming across the bog, an
had sunk in the hfeless state of ez
haustioI in which we found her.
And so it turned out to be whel
I made subsequent inquiry.
We Low resumed or1r journey
and at last arrived at the station
where [ lost no time in getting
medical relief for my poor patient
and in sending to the gravel pit t<
have the bodies removed and buried
! The next T returned to headquar
ters and from time to time after
; ward had letters from the doctor
reporting to me that the woman
very speedily recovered, and out O.
moneys placed at my disposal fo1
charitable purposes I was enabled
to contribute to her comfort in the
shape Of clothing.
4 couple of months OF more pass
cd away and the severity OF the. ia
mine was mitigated by the abun
dance Of food. which came into the
country. The people began to lool
better, and every one was in better
spirits.
Ny visits to the remoter stations
of my district were necessarily few
e., for I had important duties C
discharge at the town in which !
lived, and where the. union work,
house was situated. They We're
now principally directed to the pre-,
vention of abuse in the administra
! tion of relief. Though the distress
was still great, yet it was an un.
doubted fact with the experience Of
! all those engaged IN the Poor La y
! service, that abuse crept in to G very
large extent, and it was no easy
matter to control them.
On another lovely morning, now
far advanced in the summer, I again
STARTED for the station At,
near which occurred the incident
which I have endeavored to tell. AS
I passed by the spot where ou1
progress On the road was arrested
by the body of the poor woman,
Mick said:
':Ah, your honor, glory be to God
and thanks to you, do you rccol,
tect the crayture we saw here?'
"Yess Mick" said I, "and I hope
we shall never see such sight
again" ...
Amen, sir" said lie: giving tho
pony q gentle reminder that he WAS
to get along as quickly as he could.
We drove on fora couple of miles,
when we met group OF the peas
antry Of the district going to the
relief station for their rations ofIn-
dian meal stirabo1t.
1 stopped to make some IN
qui, les, when suddenly I felt my
knees embraced, and I saw a girl
about eighteen years Of age kissing
my feet.
"What do you wart, my good
girl}" said !.
':Ah! your honor sala she, look,
ing at me with an expression I can
never forget, "don't You recollect
Mary Canavan?"
:AIary Canavan! surelyyou can
not be the yyon1an T."
"Ah! yes, Sir" she cried.
And there she was, the stiveled
hag Of forty transformed intoa girl
of eighteen, and all by the simple
J. ADMINISTRATION of wholesome food
for II few weeks.
To those who saw such as I lid,
tais will not appear strange. But
even now, at this lapse Of this tine,
when the great famine of Ireland,
with ali it's horrible circumstances,
is well-nigh forgotten, I venture +
tell this story about poor Mar
Canavan.

Harry EVERY DA1-S;dey Smith
cut the following from a newspaper
and preserved it for himself:
When you rise in the morning:
form a resolution to make the day
a happy one to foloS-creature. It
is easily done; left of garment to
The so.rcHe;es.l. 81 encouraging cx-
pression to the striving-trihes in

at least for the twenty-four hours.
And if you are young, depend upon
it, it will tell when you are old; and
if you are old, rest assured It will
send you gently a#d happily down
sha stream OF time to eternity. Bv
the most simple arithmetical sum,
look at result. If YOU send one Der

day, there are three hundred and six-

1t became part of my lot in life

I'd necessarily to go about a good
ISte;,l and visit workhouses, hospitals
and relief stations in the discharge
OF my duties. Ny mode Of convey
ance, as g. rule. was an outside
Irish iaunting cal, and with one
horse, or rather indeed with a
pony, I used of a day sometimes to
get over. fifty long Irish miles.
I started one morning in the ear

visit a station in very remote and
wild part OF my district. My man
servant-coachman, groom, butler,

house, and above all not to forget to

We shall presently see, was not al

Many time when I have been drlv

people who, to my official knowl

''How's TICKS" ?"-There IS 4 doc
tor III this city who has a speaking
tube leading from the main en-
trarce of his building to his Office,
which is up just few flights. For
several days past: a smart young
wag, named Swartz: has amused
himself by calling for the doctor
through the pipe, and then profane.
ly ordering him to set out on an eS-
cursion to Tartalus. For some
time. this iun was taken in good
part until the fine hurnor Of the
joke 20 longer became apparent.
Accordingly one afternoon, the dis
ciple Of Esculapius provided him
self with q tca-kettle Of watcr.heated
to about 2lO degrees Fahrenheit,
and waited alongside the pipe.
Pretty soon the old, familiar sound
came up through the pipe.
Say. doc, hows Tricks!'
tricks is better now-I guess
he'll get well" responded the doc
tor, reaching out after the tca:ket-
tie.
"What's been the matter with
him!
+, Hes got burnt.

Ill tel you il & ln;outt4.
''Oh. YOU go TO-.
The doctor had finished his last
sentence, and then let Z quart Of
Fscalding watcr down the pipe.
.Swartz had lis mouth over it, and
when the water struck it; he was
somewhat surprised. Water was
apt to surprise him, but hot water

SERMON FOR SMALL BoYs.-A con-
temporary remarks of Calcraft, the great
London hangman, that he began life by
''selling rolls and smoking hot coffee"
Without inquiring into the effect which
smoking hot coffee, instead of smoking
cigars. had upon Calcraft's constitution, it
is worth while to call attention of the
young to the success which this man has
achieved in life. Beginning in the hum
blest way, as mere keeper of sidewalk
coffee and cake stand, he had steadily
risen by his frugality and honesty to
his present proud position. We may be sure
that he never listened to temptation, that
heneyer kept his stand open on Sunday, and
that he always gave good money 10 change.
His story ought to fill our ambitious youth
with new hope and determination to achieve
success by honest industry. OF course every
boy cannot expect to be a hangman, but
the success Of Calcraft shows that industry
is sure of its reward, and the possibility of
rivaling his good fortune ought to stimr-
late every small boy to diligence and fru-
gality.

LAWNS AND FLOWER GARDENS. -
Those who delight in spring bloom in
their lawns and flower gardens, under the
windows Of city houses, in front areas, or
commons and public gardens cannot do
better than select from the many varieties
Of bulbs and tubers which, set in beds, in
groups in the grass, singly and in combinf-
lion in the autumn. break the ground as
soon as the frost is gone, and blossom pro-
iusely until the regular summer flowers
take possession of the land. Crocus, squill,
hyacinth, iris, bloodroot, tulips, daffodils,
jonquills, the polyanthus, violet, pancies,
anemones, trillium, and many others,
equally dear to the lovers of flowers,
can be planted now, and will reward the
gardener with 100 per cent. on his invest
ment. Late as the season is now, soon as
the frozen ground must come, there is
ample opportunity for preparation. Even
when the ground has frozen so that crust
must be removed to get into the soil, all
these plants can be set out and they will
blossom as fully and beautifully as if
longer in the ground. We have seen mag
nifcent displays In the spring, when the
bulbs and tubers were set after the ground
was frozen so hard as to require the surface
to be broken with the pick-axe or drill.

SCIENTIFIC MEMORANDA.

AS the result of more than thirty ex-
periments on the feeding of animals on meat
taken from tuberculous creatures, nj. Col

other experimenters have obtained opposite
results, he believes that they have expert

have allowed portions of tuberculous mat

animals in the air they breathed.

reported by some Of the newspapers at the

that there were a thousand women mem

are twenty-five to thirty thousand wo-

eighteen Oranges of Iowa, each
woman having her vote equal to a
man in the managerial transactions
of the order, and that Iowa men
are thus learning the ballot force there is
in women, while the women are becoming
