Thomas opened his eyes a little wider
than usual, and with a "Thank' ZEE, sir, -
as If he were the one who had received
a favor, swung the basket to his shoulder
and went off with q springy step, in
marked contrast with his ordinary slow,
heavy movement.
The unexpected promptness and
cheerfulness with which his hired man
seconded this thoughtful toward
the widow was another element of salts
faction. Thomas was apt to be little
GLOSS at times, and especially when called
upon for some unusual service; and Mr..
Brill had looked for cloudy face and a
sullen manner when he gave his order.
He gazed after the man as he went bur-
rying away, wondering at his changed
demeanor. He was still sitting in the
porch when Thomas returned.
Well, Thomas, and what did Mrs.
Sloan sayi"
"Oh, sir, can't tell you how sur
prised and happy she was; and she told
me to thank you a thousand times"
"Will she pare and dry them for win
ter2"
"Indeed and she will, sir. She sat
right down and went to work while I
was there, and says she'll have 'em all
ont on the shed drying tomorrow morn
ing. 1t was real kind and thoughtful in
you, sir. It's such pity to have things
go to waste, when so many would be
glad to get them"
Master and man were buster than
usual in the summer and autumn days
that followed, not alone in gathering
and storing of their abundance, but in
gathering and dispensing as we'll. Moth
ing was permitted, as in other years, to
go to waste. The bushels and bushels
of apples which had once rotted under
the trees; the over-supply of turnips
and other root crops which had lain un-
used in cellar or storehouse, were all dis
tributed to the poor; and there was
plenty through the winter in many an
humble home where in former seasons
pinching need had been felt.
There was O hcartiness about him
never seen before. His old grudges
against some Of his neighbors died out.
He would stop men in the road for a
pleasant chat whom for years he had
passed with distant nod. Tho farmer
had found new pleasure, the Joy of
which was pervading his whole being
and its sunshine warming and softening
the cold, hard exterior of his life and
making it attractive and beautiful.
And he never lost the glow of this
pleasure in all the years that were added
to his life: and when at last his work
was done and he lay in that deep sleep
which has no waking in time, there were
hundreds to bless his name and to look
their last look on his peaceful face with
eyes that ran over with tears.

Production OF Cheese.

The whole amount of cheese made in
the United States, in 1870, says "Apple-
toms Cyclopedia," was 162, 1927, 1882
pounds, of which 100, 435, ,229 pounds
were made in factories, and 53, ,929, ,382
pounds on farms. The principal States
producing cheese were New York, 1OO,-
776,O14 pounds; Ohio, "a, 153, ,S56; Yer
mont, 7,814,870; Illinois, 5,734, ,004;
Massachusetts, 4,141 ,3O9; and Califor-
mia, 3,395,074. There were 1913 fac
tories devoted to the manufacture of
cheese, employing 4,6O7 hands. The
amount of capital invested was $4,69O,-
O75; wages paid during the year, $780,
566; gallons of milk used, l16, 466, 405;
value of all materials used, $14 .O89, ,284;
of cheese produced, SIG, 71O, $50; other
products, $61, ,O96. The number of COWS
supplying one factory ranges from 100
to more than 1900, the average being
about 400. In 1871 factory in Chau-
tauqua county, New York, had registered
as the whole number of cows, 1,634
During the year ending June 80, 1873,
&C, 204, 024 pounds of cheese, valued at
81, 1852, 918, were exported from the
United States, of which so, $50, 926

The Wrongs OF the Red Man.

The long series of wrongs heaped
upon the aborigines of America ever
since the discovery and settlement of
this country has nothing more heartless
or pathetic than the story of the Temecu-
10 Indians of California. We are accus-
toned to speak of the cruelty and
treachery of the savage, says the New
York Herald, but the avarice and inhu-
manity of the white man are even more
prominent features in American history.
In little more than two centuries the
natives have been driven from the At
lantic to the Rocky mountains and tribes
as countless as the leaves of the forest
reduced to a mere handful of half-starved
wretches. The brave is no longer war
rior, but loafng and treacherous muir
derer, and the Indian has no rights any
where. If he refuses to go upon q reser-
walton necessity requires that lie shall
be exterminated. II he puts himself
under the fostering care of the whites,
he is sure to be robbed first and allowed
to starve afterward. Go where he will,
civilization" in one form or another, is
sure to follow him and to oppress him.
To this fate the Temecula Indians are no
exception. Indeed, the story of their
misfortunes is one of the most pathetic
of the whole series. A hundred years
ago their children swarmed on the Pacific
coast. Now they are reduced to beg
carly five thousand. Then the whole
land was theirs. Now there is not foot
of ground they can call their own. Re-
treating before advancing civilization,
they at last settled down among q cone
of the San Bernardino mountains; but
the white man from over the seas coveted
the spot for a sheep pasture, and the
native is not even left room enough to
starve without disturbance. One French
man and two Scotchmen have ousted the
original lords of the soil, and their sheep
Craze in the Indians last retreat.

Darling DOreI.

She came With her innocent beauty and

An angel in heart and IN angel in face,
As quantity the old German chronicles tell
The picturesque story of Darling Dorel.

Wherever they shine the clouds vanish awsy,
While sorrows pale phantom glides back to it's
cell, N.t
And suoh was the face Of the Darling Dorel
Some hearts are 30 full OF the treasures of
The beautiful gifts Of the Giver above,
Their riches o'erflow into others a swell;
And such was the heart Of the Darling Dorel
Some lives are like chords under music's
control,
Each incident harmony blends with the whole,
Until on the ear in full concord they swell;
And such was the life of the Darling Dorel
Whenever she passed through the streets of
the town,
But gifted with graces that none could excel,
The natural guards Of the Darling Dorel.
Her ladies would bring with them comfits and
toys,
For the bright little maidens and brave little
boys,
While the children would follow loves magical

Though far it was spread by the heralds of

"Your name," said tho child, sis the Darling
Dorel.'
The courticrs all stared, half in wonder, half
sport;
Such a name savored more of the cot than the
court;
But their mistress said, smiling through tears

Henceforth let them call me the Darling
Dorel. ''. .-.' -a-y.
"The proudest Of titles that monarchs can

Are those which the love Of their people
bestow;
Aud not for an emperor's crown would cell
The title mine give me Of Darling Dorel."
