OUT OF WORK.

cts no use, Maria, I've tried every

But you are not going to give it up,
Peter?'
"Give it up How can l help it
Within four days / have been to every
book-b indery III the city, and not bit
of work can L get. ;"
But have you tried anything else ?"
g What else can / try 2"
why, anything that you can do. "
Yes, I've tried other things. Ihaye
been TO more than dozen of my friends,
and offered to help them if they would
hire me.
And what did you mean to do for
them ?"
81 offered either to post their ac-
counts, make out bills, or attend to the
counter.
Mrs. Stanwood smiled as her husband
thus spoke
"Wha' makes you smile ?' he asked,
"TO think you should have imagined
that you would find work III such place.
But how is Mark Leeds ?"
IS He is worse off than l am.
~ How so?
50 He has nothing in his house to
eat."
A shudder crept over his vife's frame
now.
"WLy do You tremble wife?"
Because when we shall have eaten
our breakfast tomorrow morning, we
shall have nothing"
"What ?" cried Peter Stanwood, half
starting from his chair. do you mean
that o.
81 do. "
"But our flour ?"
"All is gone. baked the last this
afternoon.
% But we have pork %
q" You ate the last this noon.
Then we must starve I" groaned
the stricken man, starting across the
room.
Peter Stanwood was book binder by
trade, and had been out of employment
about month. He was one of those
who generally calculated to keep about
square with the world, and who consider
themselves particularly fortunate if they
keep out of debt. He was now thirty
years Of age, and had three children to
provide for, besides himself and wife,
and this, together with house rent, was
heavy draught upon his purse, even
when work was plenty, but nowhere
was nothing.
Maria, said he, stopping and gaz-
ing his wife in the face, 1--WE must
starve. 1 have not single penny in
the world.
''But do not despair, Peter. Try
again tomorrow for work. You may
find something to do. Anything that
is honest is honorable. Should you
make but shilling day, we should
not starve.
But our house rent ?"
Trust TO me for that. The landlord
shall rot turn us out. If you will engage
to find something to do, L will see that
we have house-room."
"I'll make one more trial, uttered
Peter, despairingly.
"But you must go prepared to do any
thing. "
Anything reasonable, Maria"
"What do you call reasonable?"
Why-anything decent. y
She felt inclined to smile, but the
matter was too serious for that, and a
cloud passed over her face. She knew
her husbands disposition, and she felt
sure he would lind no work. She
knew that he would look for some kind
OF work which would not lower him in
the social scale, as he had once or twice
expressed it. However, she knew it
would be of no use TO say anything to
nm now, and she let the matter pass.
on the following morning, the last bit
OF iood IN the house was put on the
liable Stanwood could hardly realize
mat ne was penniless and without food.
FOR years he had been gay, thoughtless
ana fortunate, making the most of the
present, forgetting the past, and

The Scottish ministers find intemper-

A Cats Tail on n Rooster.

If we put an organ taken from a liv-
ing animal inside of another animal,
very frequently this organ will be en-
grated there. The infused serum be-
comes the object of chemical changes,
the blood is attracted and the organ re-
ceives circulation. / once engrafted
the tail of a cat on a cocks comb. A
few days after it was evident by prick
ing the tail that blood was circulating
in it, and it certainly would have staid
there had not the cock had fight and
lost its tail. Othsr cases of grating
leave no doubt in this respect. It is
shown by the fact that ora in animals
when they are implanted on mucous
membrane take hold of it, blood is at.
tracted there and circulation takes place.
