A few hours later Tommy Tingle was
in dreamland He was running away
He did not.know where he would go, Oh
how he would get there nor did he
care much, if he could only find place
where boys are not asked to rock babies,
or to bring in wood and coal, or to "dc
things" Away he went, as fast as he
could run, and the next thing he really
did know he was being dragged through
crowd by man who carried long
pole, and moment later he was caught
on the pole at the collar of his coat and
raised. to rope that was stretched
across the street. There he stood on the
rope, leaning against the building.
"Hullo! it's you, is it ?" The voice
came from a sort of wheelbarrow that
rested ON the rope before him, and peer
ing into his face were the saucy eyes of
a street urchin.
"Do you know what you're up here
for ?" asked the urchin.
"No, I don't" said Tommy.
You've got to wheel me across the
street"

You've got to. Old Poly's your

man with the pole.

Yes, you can do it. Start, I say" "
And Tommy started. He walked a
few feet, and then the crowd yelled and
hooted, the band played "When John
ME Comes Marching Home" and Tom
my's tears blinded him so that he missed
his footing, and-there he lay wide
awake in his warm bed at home.
''Pm glad I'm here. I'm glad that

And Tommy Tingle turned over for

EARLY MARRIAGES.

Of course young people ought to mar
ry early, and build up home together.
The idea that a man must be wealthy be-
fore he weds fills the community with
fortune-seeking bachelors and unhappy
spinsters /; it endangers virtue, destroys
true economy and design, and the
benefcent intentions of the home. It
promotes vice, idleness, ineficiency and
imbecility among females, who seem,
from an unsympathetic outset thencefor-
ward, to expect to be taken up by fort
une and passively sustained, and without
any concern on their part. 1t is thus
that man finds it difficult. to obtain a
helpmeet.

PLAIN FOOD.

An appetizing repast does not neces-
sarily depend upon expensive viands /;
but it does depend upon thought and
care and skill in the preparation of the
cheapest dishes. I can imagine young
couple with a very limited income enter
tanning two or three friends most pleas
antly, if only the hostess and her cook
perhaps her maid-of- all-work- would
take counsel together and market wise
ly, and then devise and carry out a
dainty menu consisting of soup, fish,
meat and pastry. Excellent soup can be
made from ox-cheek, and the tender
meat eaten afterward with haricot beans
and gravy toothsome dish. I think
one reason of the coarse, unsatisfactory
dinners we often see in middle-class
houses is the false notion that "made
Dishes" as they are called, are expen-
sive, and that the most economical food
is "good plain roast and boiled" This
is quite mistake, and either arises from
or leads to an amount of careless lazi-
ness IN our kitchens that is unknown in
the humblest French establishment,
where the first business of the day is to
go to market to choose suitable materi-
ais for the days consumption, and not
to shirk all responsibility by ordering a

HERSELF.
In the floor of the tent or hut, as it
may chance to be, small hole is exca-
waited, sufficiently large to contain a
common champagne bottle. A fire of
charcoal, or of simply glowing embers,
is made within the hole, into which the
woman about to be scented throws o
handful of drugs. She then takes off
the cloth, or "tope," which forms her
dress, and crouches naked over the
fumes, while she arranges her robe to
fall as mantle from her neck to the
ground, like tent. She now begins to
perspire freely from the hot-air bath,
and, the pores of the skin being thus
opened and moist, the volatile oil from
the smoke of the burning perfumes is
Immediately absorbed. By the time
that the fire has expired the seeming
process is completed, and both her per-
son and her robe are redolent with in

1t has cost the compiler thirty years
work and $4,000. The Government

This work deals chiefly in words found

down, and the cord "a strip Of native

=" Oh, have you seen three pair
OF mittens anywhere:
One pair was white, with blue tips,
And one was red as rose lips,
And one was striped like tulips.
Has anybody seen three pair
Of pretty mittens anywhere?
Where the mountains shadow
Falls across the meadow
Ran the little kittens,
Looking for their mittens.
Has no one seen three pretty pair
OF little mittens anywhsre?"
Where the rushes shiver,
Down beside the river,
Searched those anxious kittens
For their little mittens.
''Minnow, darling, won't you look
For them down there in the brooke
Through the dark old forest,
Close up to the spring,
Crept they very softly
Didn't find thing.
Back into the meadow,
Fast as they could fly,
And underneath the elm tree
They sat down TO cry.
Then little hang bird,
Way up in the tree,
Sang: "I've got the pret6est nest
That you did ever see.
Horse-hair, grass and feathers
Are all very well;
But what my nest is made of
III never, never ten!n
Then each little kitten
Wiped one little eye,
And straight ran up the elm tree
To see what he could spy.
And there-ah what q happy.
Joyous set of Kittens
There, as true as preaching,
Hung two snow-white mittensl
Then the little minnow,
Swimming mp the brook,
Loudly called: .'oh, kittens,
Come down here and look!'
And the eager kittens,
Running down to see,
Found two little mittens,
Red as they could be,
Snugly tucked as lining
From dwelling dank,
Where musquash had MS hole,
Underneath the bank.
But o Goody Two Shoes! where
Was the little striped pair?
Tho kittens ran TO and fro;
The kittens, they looked high and Io5,
And just at sunset, when one star
Peeped out behind q crimson bar
OF cloud, they found the pretty pair
Hid underneath the sunny hair

In the meadow grass so deep.

himself very plainly on the peace policy of the
Interior department in treating With the In
dians. He begins by saying that the tie trouble
is the only event of note since his last annual
that the agencies for many OF our worst dis

such remote distances from military posts that
when danger arises the agent is necessarily
constituted not alone the Judge of the danger

to be taken for Its suppression. Such was the
condition Of affairs at the Ute agency under Mr..
Meeker.

sion OF their reservation only demand the sur
render OF the Indians concerned In the murder
OF Agent Meeker and his employees ana decided
that 1t would make no demand for the surrender
OF those implicated In the assault upon Major
ThOrnburgh and his command. This discrimi-
nation cannot but regard as unjust aud un-
wise. The Indians who murdered Agent Meeker
and his employees murdered Major Thornburgh
and the men who fell with him. The one act
was no greater crime than the other Major
Thornburgh was on his way to the Ute agency.
In obedience to Agent Meeker's request TO pre-
serve order and restrain turbulency. He was not
there to make war upon the UteS and they knew
it. 1t was nothing more or less than murder. Ger.
tainly it was as much murder as the killing OF
Mr.. Meeker and those employed under him. To
treat 1t as anything else is equivalent to assert
Ing that an Indian commits crime only when
he kills the agent who 1nvOkeS assistance, but
