Unexpectedly DOcked.

At a certain factory in Fall River
where there are number OF young
ladies employed, it was determined
on their rart to to present their en-
ployer with an album and a large
family bible as testimonial OF their
regard for him. The money was col
lected and the articles purchased.
On the appointed afternoon the girls
assembled at the cffice of their en-
ploysr, and in neat speech presented
him with their offering. The recipi'
ent accepted the gifts and thanked
the givers in few choice words.
After conversing some time the over
seer glanced at the clock and said
"Girls, think you had better go
back to your work now ; you have
lost three.quarters Of an hour al
readyT'
The girls were taken aback and,
feeling much disconnected, went back
to their work, but greater was their
surprise and chagrin when the next
payday came round to find that the
overseer had "docked" every one OF
them for the time lost in making the
presentation.-Worceste Mass. } Spy

Burdette's JIUeniIe Days.

Unpublished page from the life of
George Washington. 1t is the merry
summer time. To him the mother of
the father of his country:
George, dear, where have you been
since school was dismissed ?"
"Hain't been nowhere, ma"
"Did you come straight home from
school, George
"Yes, ma ami"
"But school is dismissed at 8 o'clock,
and now it is half-psst 5. How does
that come ?"
SCOT KEEP in"
"What for ?"
"Missed m joggrafy less'n."
"But your teacher was here only an
hour ago, and said you hadn't been to
school all day."
"Got KEEP in yestiddy, then"
"George, why were you not at
school to-day2"

was Saturday"
"Don't stand on one side of your

Then what makes your hair 30

"Sweat. l run SO fast comm from

"But your shirt is wrong side out
''Put it on that way when l got up

when you play for keeps if your shirt
is on inside cut"
"And you haven't the right sleeve
of your shirt on your arm at all,
George, and there is hard knot tied
in it. How did that come there ?"
"Bill Fairfax tied it when I WASH t

"But what were you doing with
your shirt OFF,"

"George !"
"That's honest truth, he did,"

September.

Since August glided past her languid spell
Upon the mount and in the shadowed dell
Still holds its mystic sway while fern tops
lean
And strive to catch bright sunbeams
through the screen
OF gaJly.nodding boughs and waving
leaves,
That linger for the time of harvest sheaves,
Over the rugged boulder, harsh and gray
The clematis has thrown its twining spray,
Aud from the clasping arms there falls
A lovely wreath of cluster ed fairy balls,
Woodbine and ivy climb the supple trees,
That hold and shield them from the pass
ing breeze.
Just touched with amethyst the wild
grapes gleam
From out green.curtained Vistas; a soft
dream
OF early autumn stiffness broods around
A gentle charm that checks each careless
sound,
Even the sweet-voiced birds their songs
forbeur-
Naught break S the quiet of the ambient air.
This is the rest of Nature, ere she cast
Abroad her colors; holding till the last
Her fairest. Then the fire from autumn's
breath
She covers with the amber hues of death,
And draws with loving hand and touch
most light
Above them all her drapery of white.

that the horses collar does not fasten
to button in the back OF his shirt,
because if it did, judging from human
experience, when it flew off after he
had broken his thumb-nail trying to
crowd it into new button n-hole, he
would just kick the stufing out of
anything he was hitched to, even if it
was freight car.

BANIsH the pagan thought that rest
is concession to human weakness, or
that one must be weary before he has
a right to rest. Resting is divine. 1t
is a condition Of growth, of well-being,
Of faithful work. The mind does its
best work when it seems to be doing
nothing. American thinkers have
yet to learn the art of Oriental medi-
tation. We force all orr flowers and
fruits those are most fragrant and
sweetest which grow naturally and
spontsn sneously. The mind is not a
horse, to do its best in harness it is
bird and does lis hest in freedom.

STATISTICS show a large increase
in the number Of immigrants settling
in Texas. This is due in large part
to the wise policy of the Southwest
ern roads. In order to induce immi-
grafton into the interior of Texas the
railroads are carrying immigrants to
any point in the State without extra
fare. That is to say, it costs no more
to 20 to an interior settlement than
to Galveston.
