sobbed aloud.
This was the time for Abner to put in
an appearance. The next thing Bobby
knew brawny brown hand came over
his shoulder and wiped away his tears
with a red and yellow handkerchief, and
voice which Bobby had sometimes
despiSed, but which sounded like music
now, said:
Cheer up, little Teller; about ready
to go home? Had enough Fourth, L

"Oh, Abner," sobbed Bobby, "iust
take me home and I'll never be saucy to
you again"
"AlI right sonny. Little roosters are
better off when they don't split their
Threats a-crOwing Tumble up now, and
we'll get home in no time"
Bobby "tumbled up" very slowly. but
nothing ever seemed so comfortable as
the rumbling old buggy, although he
carried heavy heart as he thought of
meeting his auntS' sorrowful faces
When they drove into the yard he saw
them all standing in the doorway watch
ing for them. The last vestige of pride
vanished, true repentance filled his heart
as he. stretched out his tired little arms
and sobbed:
ooh, Aunt Mile, I'm so sorry. I'll
never try to be independent again, and
you amt old maids at ALL"
Aunt Millie washed his poor blistered
feet and put on some cold cream; Aunt
Rachel brought him nice little supper;
Aunt Rebecca lowered over him with q
palm-leaf fan and glass of ice-water,
and when they had made him comforta-
BILE they told him gently how very wrong
he had been, and what brave and man
ly thing true independence is.

as they were only kind-hearted, loving,

A Mediumistic Phenomenon.

The Chicago Times gives an account of
the performances of Mrs. Miller, recent
mediumistic acquisition to that city, as
| follows: Mrs. Miller is a lady about
| twenty years Of age, of slight form, with
expressive and winning features, is a
perfect gentlewOman in department, and,
so far as certain phases of the phenOm-
ena are concerned that are exhibited in
her presence, fraud is simply out of the
question, for the whole experiment is,
so to speak, locked in the visitors own
mind.
Thus the visitor is requested to ask a
mental question-one involving a test
and take in his mind two objects, the one
to stand for "nO" and the other for
eyes" Taking the visitors hand she
Will proceed to one of these objects,
never failing to give the test.
To illustrate: A gentleman thought of
the head Of his cane for eyes," a distant
object in the room for "nO," and asked
the mental question: "Have I a brother
living in Chicago?" The lady took him
to his cane in a trice, and the gentle
man. explaining his question and the OBJ
ects he had taken in mind, confirmed
that he had brother living in this city.
In the course of an evening, scores of
such experiments are made, and so far as
the writer's observations go they never
| fail SO much for Mrs. Millers mental
| experiments.
Her physical experiments are even
more wonderful, and just as much above
| suspicion. Having magnetized small
table by passing her hands over the top
and along the legs, she turns 1t ON Its
| face and then requests any gentleman
| present to turn it back to stand upon Its
legs, simply allowing her to place the
| tip of her finger upon any part OF It,
| Scores of stalwart men nave pltted thelr
| full strength against the little niger OF
this little woman, but have lgnomlnlous-
! ly failed. Even four men, when the
| 4" power" has been strong, have comDlned
their strength, and failed as well, though
generally the table is broken IN the
effort. it is a very Interesting expert
ment While the stalwart man IS trying
to set it on its legs the table will abso-
| lutely float all over the room. That IS
to say, it is continually trying to get
away from the lady's antagonist, ana VIII
carry him about, now 1ere and now there,
and will generally SUSAN position over
his head. The moment the sensitive
removes her hands tle table becomes
docile, and allows itsef to be set proper
ly on its feet. the same as any other we'll
regulated piece of family furniture.
Another phase of Mrs. Miller's medi-
umship is slate-writin5. The visitor Is
allowed to bring his own slate-a double
locked slate if he chooses-and when
the medium has held it under table
intelligent answers toluestions. O. other
tests, are invariably found written on
! the inside of the Locked slate.

Into her chamber went
\ little maid one day.
And by 2 chair she knelt
And thus began 10 pray:

4 still. small voice she heard within her soul
= What is il, child: l heard thee; tell Me all -

- That Thou will condescend
To tarry IN my heart,
And ever be nv friend:

A LESSON.

: We cannot always be giving;
The woman has come again
She has such whining story
OF hunger, Cr cold, or pain;
She Wearies With petitions:
Her Johnny is out OF a place.
Her children are sick with hunger
tire OF her listless face
Grand Philip sat laziIy reading:
The crimson gas-light shook.
From q shade that was ruby tinted,
Its red fakes over his book.
thought that he did not notice;
But suddenly, sweet and low,
lie SAID with the voice OF dreamer,
Z Don't let the woman 90"
And then, with his smile so royal,
So sweet with pity and pain,
He called her TO the study,
Out of the mcrciless rain.
Sit down, my friend;" and he gave her
The best chair in the place;
And | saw quick blush brighten
Her naggard and listless face.
And then. in tones like music.
He sounded her frozen heart.
Till the thrill Of q tender question
Sundered its ice apart;
And tears and sohs and passion
Came thick as the midnight rain;
And she told such pitiful story
NY own heart thrObbed with pain.
You sec said Philip, softly.
:. She Is greater than you or 1;
She has struggled and conquered where we
love,
Would maybe sink down and die;
She has fought in the dark, with demons,
With evil on every side:
And Satan hath tried to strip her
Even Of her Womanly pride.
Love, let UB be very tender;
The lowliest soul may be
A temple Of priceless treasures,
That only God can see
So the woman left our study
With the face Of an angel of light;
And she j my noblest pattern
Who came as q beggar that night.

Ny Neighbours Dog.

My neighbor keeps dog-my nearest
neighbor. Other neighbOrs keep other
dogs, but it is this neighbor and this dog
| speak of. The neighbor is all right
kind-hearted, votes my ticket, and his
wife borroWS tea and coffee of my wife,
but his dog is gradually killing me. Dur
ing the day, when | am down town, the
beast sports around like an innocent
lamb, or lies iii the shade and sleeps and
dreams. But as soon as I retire that dog
commences operations. My neighbor
and his wife are old and deaf, and they
have no idea Of what their dog does.

Teaching Stove to Talk Chinese.

THE Pal IIaU Gdzette tells a story,
apropos of the appointment Of NJ. De
Saint Denys to the post of Sorbone Pro-
fessor of Chinese, of what happened to
his predecessor in that learned chair
Mr.. Stanislas Julien. When NJ. Julien
was nominated to the post, his lectures
were given on Thursday and Saturday Of
each week, but for the first month his
audiences consisted solely Of the stove,
which could scarcely be expected to de-
rive much benefit from a lecture on Ian
guage. One day, greatly to his surprise,
a large party of fashionably dressed
ladies and gentlemen put in an appear
ance, and NJ. Julien, out of gallantry to-
ward the former, began his lecture by
translating a sonnet by the Chinese poet
Li-O-Tsing, in which woman is compared
to the lotus Of the Yellow River" The
audience appeared to follow the lecturer
with deep interest, and NJ. Julien began
to think that his Office would be no sine
cure. There was large attendance the
following week, and among the company
the lecturer noticed one gentleman who
had been present on the previous occa-
sion, and whom he set down as an en-
thusiastic admirer of the Chinese Ian
guage. This gentleman continued to at
tend a whole course Of the lectures, ac-
companied on each occasion by fresh
party, and it was only six months after
ward that NJ Julien discovered that he
was a guide who showed foreigners the
sights of Paris one of the most remarka-
BILE of which he considered to be a pro-
fessor teaching a stove to talk Chinese
