A FAITHFUL SHEPERD BOY.-Gerhardt
was German shepherd boy,snd noble
fellow he was, although he was very poor.
One dav he was watching his flock,
which was feeding in valley on the Dor
ders of forest, when a hunter came out
of the woods and asked:
How far is it TO the nearest village"
six miles, sir, answered the boy, but
the road is only sheep track, and very
easily missed"
rhe hunter looked at the crooked track
and said:
MY lad, | am very hungry and thirsty
have lost my companions and missed my
wav. Leave your sheep and show me the
road will pay you we'll"
II cannot leave my sheep. sir" rejOined
Gerhardt. They will stray into the
wood and may be eaten by wolves or
stolen by robbers"
well, what of that?' queried the hun
ter They are not your sheep. The loss
| of one or two wouldt be much to your
master, and I'll give you more than you
have earned in whole year"
Il cannot go. sir" rejoined Gerhardt,
very firmly. MY master pays me for my
time, which does not belong to ME. and ii
the sheep should get lost, it would be the
same AS if l had stolen them"
"Wall" said the hunter, will you trust
your sheep with me while you go to the
village and get me some food, drink and 4
guidtP | will take care of them for you. y
The boy shook his head.
The Sheep said he, "do not know youl
voice and"-he stopped speaking.
"And whatP Can't you uust me9 DE-
| look like "A dishonest MANI" asked The
hunter, angriv.
Sir" said the boy, you tried to make
he false to my trust, and tried to make mt
break my word to my masteri how do
know that you would keep your word"
The hunter laughed, for he felt that tht
lad had fairly cornered him. He said:
"I see, my lad, that you are good
faithful bov. | will not forget you. SHOW
me the road, and | will try 10 make it ou
myself
Gerhardt then offered the contents of hi
scrip to the hungry man, who. COARSE rs
was, ate it gladly. Presently his attend
ant, came up; and then Gerhardt. to hi
surprise. found that the hunter was tn
grand duke who owned all the countr
around. The duke was so pleased wit
the boys honesty that he sent for hiu
shortly after that and had him educated
: In after years, Gerharlt became a yer
great and powerful man, but he RENAME
honest and true to his dying day.

The OLEANDER DEADLY PoGSoN -
The oleauder is deadly poisonous, and
though beautiful in flower and leaf as =
house-pant, vet it ought never to grow
where children may touch it. Prof James
Law writes: A case that occurred re-
Gently under my notice may be recorded
AS warning of the dangerous qlali' les Of
a favorite house-pltnt. A fine healthy
mare ate single tuft of leaves from Il
branch of an oleander temporarily set by
tue door; then went on 4 Journey OF six
miles, appearing playful and well, but on
returning refused to eat, looking dull and
haggard, and had partially lost control OF
her hind limbs The mare died before
assistance could be obtained, and on open
ing the body the dark red, congested
stomach showed the action of an acrid
poison, and inquiry brought out the fact
of the cropping of the oiean Ter, of the in
furious qualities of which the owner wa.
entirely ignorant. As this ignorance l.
very widespread, it may be well to say
| that all parts OF the plant are deadly. A
very small quantity of the leaves is fata
to the horse, as we have Just seen, The
flowers have caused the death of those
who carelessly picked and ate them. The
branches, dive.ted of their bark and use'
as skewers, have poisoned the meat roast
ed on them, and killed seven of the twelve
people who partook OF it.'-R~Jdt Neu

Daniel Webster, in paying becoming
tribute TO the memory of jeremiah Mason
who had been his great rival at the bar
adverted to the fact that Mr. Mason believ-

thing to believe and something to hope

really happy when, on feeling the enjoy

TO lay stronger hold on those of anoth

Mr.. Webster was not himself al old

consciousness that MS journey in time l.

To be happy AS an old man, he must draw

Many years ago, the officer who now
has it in his possession commanded regi-
ment of cavalry in the Union army. One
night this regiment secretely broke camp,
and rode along the frequented road toward
the town of b, which WAS then
occupied by troop of confederate dra-
goons. At daybreak the town was sur.
prised and captured by the Union soldiers,
, with nearly all it's garrison. The CON-
mander of the attacking force made the
hotel of the place his headquarters. While
he was standing in the parlor Of the hotel
covered with dust, and surrounded by q
few of his officers, a little negro, about
twelve years old, pushed his way into the
midst of the group, and took a position
directly in front of the colonel. His face
was the picture of astonishment, and his
| eyes Setutb W IOLl OuL vi LIS
The colonel looked at him greatly amused
Still the little fellow stood. Finally be
asked. in an awe-struck tone: "Am you

A loud roar of laughter followed thi
question, but, instead of being frightened
at the ridicule. the little fellow stoutly
resented it. Wat you laffin' at?' h,
cried. Amt 'Massa Linkum as good a
you beP'
A fresh peal of merriment followed thi
sally, and in spite of his courage. tn,
young questioner began to look confused
He was turning away when the colonel
after moments thought, said to him

And Poncho rolled his head and showet
his white teeth.

in puzzled tone. Dunno what dat is !
