vance a single step. They were
anxious to show Nine Schneider
the newly acquired accomplish
ment of her baby, but the orders
were strict, and this was a great
disappointment. But in the morn
ing the nurse could no longer hold
out. She thought that the mother
would forgive an indiscretion so
well justified, and, Notwithstanding
the order, she knocked at the door.
There was no response. She went
in, and staggered back, uttering a
cry. Mime Schneider was stretched
upon her bed motionIess and ap-
parently dead. She was sufocated.
A crack was opened in the wall
through which the smoke from the
chimney entered the bedroom. An
hour later and nothing. could have
saved her. 1t was three hours be-
fore she became conscious. She is
not yet completely restored. But
had it not been for the good for
tune Of the first steps Of that baby!
However, we are happy to announce
that she is out of danger.

Are men restrained by what you
call religion? used to think they
were not; now | admit they are.
No man has ever been restrained
from the commission of real crime ;
but from an artificial one he has.
There was a man who committed
murder. They got the evidence,
but he confessed that he did it.
"What did you do it for?"
"Money."
"Did you get any money!
"Yes.'
"How much?"
"Fifteen cents"
"What kind of man was he?"
"a labOring man killed."
What did you do with the
money!"
81 bought liquor with it."
"Did he have anything elSe?"
i think he had some meat and
bread"
"What did you do with that?"
60 | ate the bread and threw the
meat away; it was Friday"
Soyou see it will restrain in some
things.

lie paused to relight his cigar.
A bit of the chimes like sound Of
silver bells was being given. The
execution was very fine. We rushed
to embrace it."
Mr.. Blowah said
"The next time you go to the
city let me know. / should like to
take you around to a friend of mine
in Fourteenth street. He has got
a two thousand dollar piano, and
they say it's the best toned instru.
ment in New York. And he can
more'n handle it. He's played ever
since he was eight years old, and
takes to music as natural as a duck
to water. You'd enjoy hearing him
play, l can tell you, and I'd like to
go there with you. What's the
matter? Amt you feeling well?'
Before we could make any reply
to this unexpected interrogation
the chimes ceased.
"You move around so restless
and look so white in the face" said
Mr.. Blowah, cycling us anxiously
''that | thought you might be sick
You ought to get out more where
you can hear music, you're SO fOnt
Of it. 1t will do you good"
We gratefully thanked him foi
his kind interest, and crawled bach

this is queerl Where am I?" and
he looked about in silly wonder.
He would go anywhere with the
men and do anything he was told
to, acting like little child. When
anything was said to him he would
gaze at the speaker in vacant way
for a considerable length of time
before answering, it evidently being
with great effort that he could suffi :.
GENTLY rally his mind to under
stand the words.
He would say over and over:
+" Boys, this is queer-this is
queerp
Some one was at last found that
knew him, and knew that he
roomed on Washington street. His
clothes were found for him, he was
made to put them on, and was
taken to his room. He was in the
same oblivious condition when
taken away as when he first came
out of the lower levels, but the
miners say he will soon come out
all right. After he had good
sleep, they say, he will soon come
out as " straight as a string"
Mr.. Brown is an old Consolidated
Virginia miner, and a large and
powerful man. He had probably
not been in the heated lower levels
for some time previous to going to
work yesterday morning. 1t was
not unlikely that it is while in a
condition Of mind similar to that
shown by Mr.. Brown when brought
ont of the mine that men occasion
ally walk into shafts and wines in
a manner unaccountable to all who
know the circumstances.

Advice to Those who owe.

Make a full estimate of all you
owe and of all that is owing to you.
Reduce the same to a note. AS fast
as you collect pay over to those you
owe. If YOU cannot, renew your
note every year, and get the best
securities you can. Go to business
diligently and be Industrious; waste
no idle moments; be very economi-
cal in all things; discard all pride /;
be faithful in your duty to God by
regular and hearty prayer morning
and night; attend church and
netting regularly every Sunday;
and do unto all men as you would
that they should do unto you. If
you are too needy in circumstances
to give to the poor, do whatever else
is in your power cheerfully, but if
you can, help the poor and unfor-
tunate. Pursue this course dill.
gently and sincerely for seven years
and ifyou arenot happy comfortable

stances come to me and | will pay

During a lullin the conversation
yesterday evening grandfather
Lickshingle startled the family by
remarking:
"Pve lived over a hundred years
by the watch, and never felt this
way BEFORE" and he blinked in a
very sorrowful manner.
"What's the matter?" asked
mother, who was at his side in an
instant.

l've a quickened conscience" and
he blinked and stared by turns in
a very alarming manner.
81 feel sort of hot around the
ears" he went on, "an' mebbe I'd
better confess"
His whole frame trembled like a
leaf, and a deadly pallor overspread
his face. A window was thrown
open, which seemed to revive him,
and he gasped:
"I-wrote-' Beautiful Snow

Grandfather went on with his
confession:

Something rose in the wretched
mans throat and choked off the
dreadful sentence. Summoning
his strength again he whispered:
"It was l who struck Billy Pat

a Y, next time for twenty" and
grandfather fell back in his chair
exhausted.

ALOvER OF MUSIC.

We we're in Morris music store
for few moments the other after
noon. Young Mr.. Dauchy who is
quite a musician wanted us to hear
an adaptation from the "Ohimes
Of Normandy" which he thought
was very neat thing. We love
music; we become absorbed in it,
and saturated with it. 1t lifts us
above the world, and the things of
time, and leaves us floating noise
lessly through the atmosphere of
fond hopes and sweet memories.
We were glad when young Mr..
.Dauchy proposed to play this piece.
Mr.. BloWah was in the store at
the time. He was telling MS Of a
hunting expedition the day before
in which he had killed three birds
in one shot, when the music COM
menced. He paused then. We
turned our full attention to the in
strument. The player dashed into
the overture. The movement was
excellent if not brilliant. We con-
centrated every thought upon it.
Mr.. Blowah said:
"You are fond Of music?"
We briefly said yes.
"So'm l. There amt nobody
fonder Of music than l am. | amt
any player myself, but / can tell
when a piece is played right as well
as any of 'em. They can't fool me
on music"
There was a spirited dash in the
overture at this juncture. We were
charmed. Mr.. Blowah said:
"Did you ever hear old Gibbs, of
Slawson, play violin"
We had not heard Gibbs. In q
tone of as little interest as was pos
sible we said "no."
"Is that so? Why, thought every
body had heard him. He can more
than shake bow. He amt got no
equal in these parts, you bet. l
wish you could hear him, you're so
fond of music, If you could hear
him play the Blue Danube,' You
would be so taken up with it that
you conldn't speak a word"
Mr., Blowah paused about eight
seconds, in which the "Chimes"
floated sweetly, when he again OBJ
served
".Tha.t,'s pretty good playing,
ain'tit?"
EYES," very briefly.
"Pve got capital ear for music" ("
he continued. 81 can tell in a
minute when piece is played right.
There's chap up in New Milford
who has got piano that's one of
the best strung ] ever saw. lie can
more than handle it too. ! can't
think of his name. Perhaps you
know him"
So perfectly delicious was the
strain now given that he could not
speak. We could only shake our
head slowly.
"No? Well, that's odd. It's
curious | can't think of his name.
It's Morgan or Harrigan, or some
thing like that There's gan in
it anyway. 1t does beat all that I
can't think Of that name. It's Just
as familiar to me as yours. l wish
you'd 60 up there some day and
hear him play, lie can play the
Devils Hornpipe' and Home,
Sweet Home at the same time.
Hes perfect wonder on the piano.
Oh, you must go and hear him, if
you want to know what music is.
| could sit and hear him all the day
without breathing"
Grandly beautiful came the air,
as he ceased. Our perturbed spirit
fell into the sweet harmony and
glided-
"Did you ever hear Thomas
orchestral" inquired Mr. Blowah.
A nod of the head, half exhaust
ed at that, was all the response we
could make.
e" How'd you like him ?"
With 4 powerful wrench we tore
ourselves from the delicious air
