SMALL BEGINNINGS.

And one took root and sprouted up. and grew

A TALE OF THE NORTH SHORE

We had been enjoying ourselves in the
LATEST, best way possible, one afternoon
IN the woods at Lake Superior, about one
hundred miles north of Duluth, content
to keep cool and enjoy perfect rest, but
Mr.. Loring's voice suddenly broke the
spell OF calm content; he was standing
near the edge of the cliffs and looking
down the ravine, when he turned to me
eagerly; "Come and see beautiful pic
ture," he SAID.
1T is the Lorlie herself.' 1 looked
down and saw Mrs. Armitage sitting at
the very edge Of the high rocks near the
mouth of the river. She was evidently
taking advantage Of our absence to
smooth the ruled braids Of her long vel
low hair; as she slowly passed the comb
through the long golden locks, she was
singing to herself, her beautiful voice
rising sweet and strong above the rash-
ing water.''
"But good heavens, what is that?" said
Theo, Mr.. Loring's sister. l looked in
the direction indicated, aud saw not a
wild animal, but what was more sur
prising-a man standing midway down
the rocks just opposite our unconscious
Lorlie.
'sWho can it be, and where did he come
freme' exclaimed.
Mr.. Loung, who had used his field glass
to some purpose, gave a low whistle of as
tOnishment
"By Jove, Theo,' he cried, ssit is that
swell Englishman who was in Boston last
winter; III go and hail him and possibly
eavo Mrc rp,i Sr;n~b&
There, she has seen him." cried Theo.
AS If turned to stone she sat there her
eyes fixed upon the intruder, who from
the crags above returned her gaze. It
was a strange scene. Both seemed un-
der the influence OF some mysterious fas-
clnation. Loring's shout of greeting broke
the spell. She rose to her feet as Mr..
Loring presented his friend, Mr.. Alfred
Terrence, to her, but I saw her put her
hand on the rock as is for,support. The
stranger went to Theo's assistance on the
cliff.
II would like to go back to the beach, .
Mrs. Armitage said, ssif Mr.. Loring will
row me around," and Mr.. Loring was
only too happy. We were small party
that had sought these wilds for rest.
health and fishing. That night while
clustered together enjoying the moonlight
and the pleasant tapping sound Of the
lake, some one of the party suggested a
song from Mrs. Armitage. Mr.. florence,
who had joined our party, looked up at
her suddenly. @
There's little song of Alfred de Mus
sets that I would like to hear. won-
der It you know it, Mrs. Arm,tage- the
eChanson de Fortun;o."

The Better Smelling.

The new fashion in spelling, says
Prot. David Swing. Of, Chicago, seems
at first glance like cruel slaughter
Of shade trees, aud pet birds, and the
family dog, but, If one will look at
the matter calmly, he will see that 1t
is no destruction at sll, but is really
an improvement of the old house, q
trimming of the hedge, mending OF
all the old fences, 8 making Of a
turnpike where there has been too
long mud-road, and the hanging of
a neat gate where our fathers were
wont to let down heavy bars. We
ought to make distinction between
mere feelings and reasonable feel
ings; for, if we have permitted our
self to become so attached to an old
wooden plOw that we would not ex-
change 1t for the best steel one, we
are not persons Of deep feelings, but
rather of deep babyhood and stupid
ity. THE human race that will from
deliberate choice spell the word pro-
gram, programme, and tisik, phthis-
&c, and which, when its folly is point
ed to, will proceed to affirm that 1t
prefers the longest way of spelling a
word, should go back to canal boats
and pack. horses, and to dipping can
dies, and to sermons two hours long.
Progress is q universal movement of
all things. If our fathers had poor
plow, and poor wagon, and q poor
reaping tool, so they had poor way
Of spelling sound, and must neces-
sarily have written as they acted and
thought in other particulars. They
had poor paper. poor light, poor pens,
poor ink, and poor spell.
