A WORD ABOUT CoNTRADIcTING.-
No one likes to be contradicted, even
whom contrad iction is absolutely neces.
ary. A few resolutely amiable souls
nay bear it without visible dem on
stration of annoyance, but such cases are
uncommon and exceptional, and only
serve to prove the rule. But too oftea it
happens that contrad Iction is not only
unnecessary but superhuous, as a few
samples will prove.
Miss A and her sister sre calling, and
Miss A is speaking Of the death OF a
mutual friend, "Ie es, | saw her in July
for the last time!" says Miss A; where
upon her sister ediateiy interrupts
with "Oh, no, you didn't, you saw her in
August; remember very well it wa. the
first day OF August"
"Well, in August them" says Miss A, ,
accepting the correction, and going on
with her story. "She seemed very we'll
and yet it was just one week aiterward
that she was taken With"
"Oh, 70, it was eight days after vou
saw her; you said so at the timo." breaks
in the accurate sister once more"
Miss A finally closes her narrative by
saying:
And she left such young family! the
baby is only year old now"
why sister, how can you say so?
that ch lid is one year and two months I'D
at the least" is the instant correction.
And SO the dialogue goes on-every re-
mark sAndwiched between Interruptions
OF the same sort-the most unlmportant
dates and facts constantly re- stated; and
the contradictor full of interest and com
placency all the while.
Too often the whole point of an amusing
aneedote, or the force of remark, is
destroyed by some unmeaning and i'm
pertinent contradiction, while the effect
upon both speaker and hearers is irrltat-
ing in the extreme. Only lately we were
commencing exactness Of speech, correct
ness of speech, correctness in small de-
tails, and the like; but this is very diff
ferent matter from that, and should new
er be contounded W ith CHI1Stian In
teLh9encer.

A DETECTIvE OUTwITTED .-Ths fol-
lowing story is almost to good TO be true.
A certain railway company suspected
that they were being defrsuded by pas
sengers travelling without tickets, so a
detective was sent TO travel on the trains.
One day he heard passenger remark
that it was very easy to go from Dayton
to Moorfeld without ticket. The de-
tectivs watched his man closely, and was
surprised TO find him hand a proper ticket
to the conductor.
Entering into conversation with the
passenger, the detective said:
II should like to know your plan for
travelling without ticket, as l am a
frequent traveller, and don t mind Civ
ing you a dollar fe9 the trip"
Done, said the man, and after he had
pocketed the bill, he remarked quietly,
"When want to travel without ticket

bread, looking wistfully at the tempting
food, yet refraining from touching it,
Kneeling beside him, she smocthed his
faded hair and asked him if he was not
hungry
Hungry yes. Oh so hungry %
Then why not eat something, my
dear ?"
Then the large, msurnful eyes over
flowed, his little thin lips quivered, and
between his sobs he said, "Oh, you are
SO good lady, but something chokes so,
cause my little sister is so hungry, too,
and she hasn t single Bit"
You foresee the result. The little boy
was assured that his little sister would be
cared for, and so soon as the other little
waits had been waited on, the carriage
was ordered Miss Louise and her father
trusting to their little wanderers direc-
ton, were driven rapidly toward one Of
the dark streets. O;her carriages rolled
by them, their occupants dressed in holi-
day attire, en- route for opera or party,
but no one of them, I ween, happier than
was our friend Louise. as she hears from
the little ragged boy the question, Are
you the angel my mother said she would
send ?"
At last little sister was found. Alas,
that such poverty and want should come
to any in city of wealth and palatial
homes. In a low, dark room, they
found the baby alone, lying on pile of
straw, her tangled hair escaping row and
then into curl, the little cheeks all tear.
stained, while one little hand clasped a
dry crust.
From the inmates of another room they
learned that ths child's mother had died
two days before. The drunken father had
that morning sent the little boy out to
beg, and then had gone somewhere him
self, and the CHI lid had cried itself about
to death.
Down by the bed Of straw kneeled the
fair, young, petted child of luxury, and
very tenderly she reused the little sleeper.
Two bright eyes opened wonderingly, and
then crying and sobbing, the child sprang
into the boys arms. Gently as tender
mother, this little begger boy took his
sister in his arms, his great eyes glowing
with delight as he held up the sweet, soft
bread, saying, See, see what brudder
Brought the baby,
Louisa Horton and her father looked
upon the terribly real tabeau, and thank
ed God that they had been led to care for
these little ones; and when their carriage
rolled through the brilliant street again,
it carried into the light of home and love
two Of Gods little ones. Louise had de
cidsd to adept the little boy. and she was
confident that she could find a home for
the little girl.

then summoned his housekeeper, and by
so doing evoked scene.
Mrs. Quimbly tremb bIed violently with
righteous indignation we suppose), when
she was informed of the baby's presence.
Mrs. Quimby was not to be put down by
any mort Al man, or woman either, and
SO she made her speech.
"Mr. Livingstone, 1 shall not be re-
sponsible for this strange proceeding.
can assure you. If you were in heaven
it might do, but IN this gossipping world
it is pretty risky for single man to adopt
a baby. People will talk, Its natural for
them to talk, and in this case it is very
likely that they will talk great deal. In
fact, think they would be justified in
talking"
Let thom talk, then, and I am glad
that for the first time in my life l have
performed an act so pure and good that
the world is obliged TO hunt for the rea-
son why. have determined to adopt
this little girl, and now Mrs. Quinn by
will you ring for some bread and milk" !"
Mrs. QIimby went herself for the
bread and milk, muttering as she went
Eyes, be is crazy: Know he is: l hav e
heard that it rurs in the family.
But Hugh Livingstone was never mere
sane than when he decided to take into
his desolate home the little motherle SIS
girl, his home was ever brighter; home
and heart thrilled with childish prattle
and music until be called her Sun
shine"
Thev are blind and crazed who sit in
dresry, desolate, childless homes, while
SO many little ones wander on through
cold, starvatior and crime, unto death.
