LIES REST.

You lean from your easement small,
And look with longing eyes
To the hills beyond, nor see
The beauty that nearer lies.
And you sigh in discomfort
That your life Is narrow and small
Do you not know, little maid.
That your narrow life holds all
That can make 1t sweet and true
That can make il fair and blest?
OF all the worlds good gifts
You have the very best.
Out at work in the fields,
Husking the yellow corn,
Is man whose honest heart
Beats for You night and morn.
We're you TO search the world,
What would You hope to find
Better for heart or hand
Than this you would leave behiud7
All I! little girl, the hills
May glow with a splendid grace,
But the valley, after all,
ls very pleasant place.
And nothing that life can give,
Be It ever 30 sweet and good,
Could be one-half 30 good
As this love beneath your feet.
Though the hills seem glory-crowned,
Yet the hills are bleak and drear,
But the valley is sheltered; warm,
Stay in the valley, dear.

Women as Shoppers.

The man who dogmatically asserts
that men are better shoppers than wo-
men has had very little experience
among the sex. We refer now to what
is technically known as shopping" and
not to those large transfers which are a
part of merchandise business, Occa-
sionally, indeed, one meets man who
possesses all.the adroitness and aplomJ of
woman in the small niceties and shop
ping, but as rule men fail in this re-
spect, and to the woman is relegated
those little arts by which cheap pur-
chases are realized. Women have no
shame in the matter of cheapening an
article. They have no conscience in
the trouble they give clerk or sales
woman. They have no reserve in ex-
pressing their dislike for this and their
contempt for that, and their sex pro-
tects them from the retribution which,
in some form or other, would be sure
to await the male shopper who thus con-
Quoted himself. Nevertheless, woman
is very useful friend and ally when
you want a large variety of small pur-
chases made. HeSSYatience and perse-
verance never 1fhe treads street
after street and1 '-after store, and
will either find the desired article or
die in the attempt. Perhaps this inter-
esting fact has never been more clearly
demonstrated than during the present
season, when the shops are crowded
with tempting goods, and women have
obtained from their husbaDde and
fathers, the last possible penny.

A Good Story.

1t is related that a bear and its owner
lately arrived toward night at village
near The city of Lyons, France, and the
latter sought admission into the only
inn of the place. = he host at first de-
clined to admit the strange pair, not
knowing where to place the animal, but
finally he consented to receive them.
The bear was placed in a pig sty, and
tis occupant, fat pig, which was to be
killed on the morrow, was let loose in
the court yard In the middle of the
night cries for help, proceeding from the
pig sty aroused the house, and the host,
his wife, and the servants at once ran
to the spot. 1t was then ascertained
that a thief, excited by the splendid
condition of the pig, had determined
upon clipping with it, and had entered
the pig sty with that laudable intention,
The bear displeased at being suddenly
awakened by this enterprising individ-
ual, rewarded him with fraternal hug
which caused the would be thief to Cry
out so Justify. The man was delivered
from the paws of the bear, but only to
be handed over to the hands of justice.

The Case of Hunter

The New Jersey Court Of Errors and Appeals
at Trenton decided on saturday the question OF
setting aside the judment of the Camden curt
in the case of Hunter, who was convicted and
sentenced to be- hanged for the murder Of John
NJ Armstrong. The chief point of the defense
was that armstrong was only assaulted in Cam
den and died in Philsdelpni', and that therefore
the New Jersey court had nojurisdiction as to
the question of murder. The Court of Errors
held that the statute IS to jurisdiction was par
ticplsriy clear and emphatic. and quoted lis
terms to the effect that If any person be feIori-
ously stricken or poisoned within the jurisdic.
ton Of the state and shall afterwards die on the
ses or anywhere else outside Of the jurisdiction
CT the state the case shall be trisble before any
court ofoyer or tsrminer within the State. The
judgment of the Camden court is confirmed.
The execution of Hunter 10 set down for Janua.
~ 10. His only hope now is communication CT
sentence, though it is stated that an effort will
be made to get the matter before the Supreme
Court of the United States.
