An AIderman's Great Sorrow.

There il an Alderman in Detroit
who knows bale OF bay whea he
sees it as well as any man living. lie
was passing up Michigan avenue the
other day, when he came across a
small group OF friends. They had been
waiting for him, knowing that he
would pass that way about that hour.
They were standing near bale OF
hay marked 1910 pounds and beside
the bale stood Aat-ches,ed, slim.
wasted consumptve-looking youth Of
&c summers. who kept splitting ON his
hands and saying he would shoulder
the bale or die in the attempt.
"Tve bet ten dollars that he can't
remarked one of the group to the AL
derman, as he came to halt.
"Why. he must be tool j replied
the official. rs he looked from the man
to the hay.
~I can't, eh ?" queried the consump-
tive. "You dasn't put up $40 that J
can't shoulder this ere hay and carry
It across the street and back.
Nothing but chainlightning could
have beat the movements OF that Al
dermau in pulling out an TX and
placing it in the hands OF stakehold'
er. When all was ready the consump.
tive spit on his hands, shouldered the
bale and took his walk. Tie end OF
the Alderman's tongue was in sight,
and his eyes could have been stepped
on as the dying youth returned to the
curb, dropped the bale and took the
money.
"Lemme see that bay!' whispered
official as conciousness finally return
ed.
He walked up to the bale, gave it
heave, and it went rolling over.-
Then he picked it up and hefted it,
got red clear back to the collar but
ton, aud walked off without 4 word.
The consumptive was only half a day
fixing up the sham bale with sticks and
papers and little hay, and ten dollars
is good pay for half days work.

Darkness.

1t is dark when an honest and hon
orable man sees the result o. long
years swept cruelty away by the
knavish, heartless adversary. It is
dark when he feels the clouds of sor-
row gather around and knows that
the hope and happiness OF Others are
fading with his own. But in that
hour the memory of past intesrity ty
will be true consolation, aud assure
him, even here on earth, OF CLEANS
of light in Heaven. 1t is dark when
the dear voice of that sweet child
once so fondly loved is no more heard
around in murmurs. Dark when the
light paltering feet no more resound
without the threshold, OF ascend, step
by selp, the stairs. Dark when some
well.know air recalls the strain once
oft attuned by the childish voice now
hushed in death Darkness but only
the day-spring Of Immortality and the
infinite light of Heaven

FAT MAKES HENS LAY.--There is
much refuse fat from the kitchen that
can be turned to good account by
feeding to the hens. OF course
where soap is made it will be used in
that way, but it is a question whether
it is not easier and more profitable to
buy soap and make the hens lay by
feeding them with fat. Everything
that is not wanted for dripping tor
cooking purposes should be boiled up
with the vegetables for the fowls
