dives down, head first; up agaiu in a

floats about for a rest.
Starting from the steps. cutting the
water with long, graceful strokes, comes
a young married lady, a scholar of last

white and hard with muscle, and per-

A Town I'm Two states.
lCheyenne Leader.l


Although Bristol is a small and un-
important town it has two mayors, two
municipal governments, two bodies Of
police, and is taxed in two States. 1t
is in Tennessee and Virginia, the CEN
tire of Main street being the dividing
line, and its peculiar position causes no
little confusion and many drOll Incl
dents. Young couples elOpe from
Virginia, and, by crossing the street
enter Tennessee and are married with
out hindrance. A man commits a
crime in Tennessee, flies to the opposite
sidewalk in Virginia, and deties the
officers of the former state. He needs
to be veFy guarded in his movements,
however. lest he crosses the boundary
and becomes amenable to the laws of
the Commonwealth he has fled or step
ped away from. Fugiiives are often
pulled across the street by officers
armed with a warrant, and so, legally
arrested. Not long since a fellow who
had stolen q horse in Tennessee crossed
the boundary-by walking twenty
feet-and seating himself on a pile of
dry goods boxes, laughed pursuing
policeman to scOrn, While so Occu-
pied, a law-abiding citizen pushed over
the pile of boxes and the thief fell
within the confines of Tennessee and
into the arms of the waiting and watch
ing minion of the law.

Charity.

Charity is like q skylark in onr sun

singing all day and all night, but lovliest
in the night Led by the hand Of a pure
charity. that sister angel ever enters the
soul. That angel Of the heart is q pure
conscience testifying Of the approval Of
our God. Sweeter even than the song Of
the poor is its song; whatever she may
bring to them, great az its blessings may
be, and its blessings are priceless. she is
herself her own blessing and these bles-
sings are little compared with that which
she brings to him in whose bosom che
