Child-like and Bland,

His name was Moses Sparrow. He
was very green. That was the idea
which always came into Miss Pages
mind when she looked at her country
landlady's son. Such rustic youth,
with such fair hair, worn long, such
big blue eyes, such sloping shoulders,
such 1amb-like expression. And,
being there at the farmhouse, whith-
er she had been sent to spend the Sum-
mer months, tho city belle resolved
that she would try her powers of fas-
cinatiOn upon the hoy who struck her
as SO good subject for Irritation, In
which all the fun was to be OH her
side and all the sentiment on his. And
at it she went, beginning with smile,
q look, a word, and rejoicing to sec
the fish bite SO readily. She enjoyed
herself very much until she grew tired
of it; and then she decided Oh break
ing the heart she had won, and enjoy
ing the crash. So she lured him out
in the garden and made him sit be-
side her on the bench under the wist-
arias, and said sadly, ''rm going home
next week. shall send you my wed-
ding cards when am married. l am
to be married to rich old gentleman
next Winter" Then she waited to
see him drop at her feet; but he
did not drop. lie only said, "Wal,
Pm real glad l kinder felt afraid I'd
been goin' too far with you. Pm
sort o butterfly, fiittin' from flower
to flower yoo know I hev 1irted
with you, du allow. / was afraid
you would 90 off into a decline or
suthin'-you seemed to set SO much
OH me-if you heered sudden-like that
NE and Ann Maria was keepin' steady
company. But, law, sence you're 60
in to be married, there amt no harm
donel l shouldn't hev liked you to
drown yourself, like t'other Summer
boarder did, in the mill pond. She
had my photograph in her pocket
when she was fshed out" Then he
smiled at Miss Page, and she arose
and sailed away from him with great
dignity. But Moses sat within the
arbor q while longer, and laughed SO
loudly that his mother heard him in
the kitchen, where she was sprinkling
clothes, and thought the old owl i'll
the woods was hooting louder than
ever that night. ar,.-.t

NRaising,, Setter Dogs.

A good story is told of a Rockville
sporting man. Having fine litter of
setter pups-pedigreed stock-he was
taking special pains to give them a
start in the world, and to this end it
was his custom to rise from his bed
at short intervals to feed them. 1t
became rather tedious business for
him to "crawl out" during the cold
Winter nights to attend to their
wants, 20 he tried new plan. Set
ting pan of milk in q warm corner
behind the stove, he went to bed, and
in the small hours the young CANNES
called for food. Thinking to make
one job OF it. he arose in the dark and
carried the pan carefully to the wood
house, when seizing each pup by the
nape of the neck he thrust its nose in-
to the pan, and when all had "SOt to
their work" returned to his bed. The
next morning he was reused by his
wife, who wanted to know what in
the world he had done with her bread
pan. Investigation followed his wife
had wet up a batch of bread and set
it behind the stove to rise; this pan
our ''shOt" had carried to the pups,
and they, after gorging themselves
with the dough, waddled back to
their warm nest. The yeast was good
and the puppies rose, looking like 80
many mllffs, with the head of the an
inal used for trimming, while their
legs resembled warts on an EARLY Rose
potato. The sportsman says he would
have made a pie of 'em, only the crust
would have been inside instead of out.

Tempted Animals.

A dog has SO certainly the knowl-
edge of good and evil that he is
liable to temptation. Sometimes we
can see the whole play OF the animals
mind, the battle between its virtuous
and vicious propensities.. its prompt
ings to the right, and its endeavors
to stick by the right, its longing for
tho wrong, for the titbit, which it
knows it would be improper to steal
and the final triumph Of either vir-
tue Or temptation. The poor animal,
knowing or feeling tho weakness Of the
flesh, sometimes has the moral strength
the force of character, the good sense,
to avoid temptation altogether. But
dogs. like men, are apt to have the
most trying temptations thrust unex-
pcctedly upon them, and then comes
the tug of war of the appetites and
passions, the moral turmoil that may
make shipwreck of, or that may
strengthen virtue. Dogs reason with
out doubt, anissonsTs OF the more in
tclligent breeds instinctiyely know

The grasp of the hnman race is in
the hand.
Tie hand of the baby with its chub-
biness, all dimples but the fingers,
which wiggle aimlessly in forty-seven
directions, isn't it Innocent and pref
ty? And how nicely it's wondrous-
eyed owner can spread butter with it.
The hand OF the small boy, on a
three weeks vacation from the wash
basin, begrimed knuckles, mourning
tinger-nails and rag wound round its
sore thumb. This is the hand that
steals cookies, jam and other goodies
one minute and pats the crust of a mud
pie in innocent mirth the next. We
were all small boys once-with per-
haps few feminine exceptions.
The hand of the young woman of
the day. sparkling with diamonds and
other jewels-mostly other. How its
shapely fingers run up and down the
piano key-board, and how daintily
does it show its deftness in embroid-
ery, fancy work, etc., and how seldom
is it found in the bread tray or the
wash tub.
The hand of a mother, lovingly lead

itor. swinging over his case with rap
id regularity, raising the complete

the IMPLYING gaze of the world as q
consummate fool. It is the worst
hand played.
The hand of the marriageable
Young lady always stretched forth,
and just as you think you 1 have got
it for life, it vanishes. Ills Well.-
Only a few OF this species are worth
having.
The hand of an old friend, as it set
ties into YOURS with one long gra teful
clasp. Nothing in this world ever
starts the tremors Of the nerves from
the brain center, and causes thrill
so permeating to the soul as its kind
The real pretty hand, symmetrical in
every finger joint, makes the owner
Just vain enough to gracefully rest her
face upon it as often as any one would
be likely to look at IT.. ! -
The hand of the dear old grandmoth-
er. Wrinkleu with goodness, by age
that has tempered its old time Sc
verify, it now is up to the wrist IN
bencficent and kindly deeds Tor the
young. All, lucky is the young scamp
who can depend OH the interference OF
a agrandmother's hand.
Thc hand of Providence-but IL
will take an eternity to "size that up"
