The Milkmaids of BORT.

Girls often declare that boys have all
the fun. Well, they certainly do seem
to get the larger share of it in a good
many ways. Then, when they grow up,
they are very apt, too, to carry off all the
honors, the literary fame, the military
glory, the professional success, while the
girls are left at home to do worsted- work.
Now and then, however, the girls come
to the front in art, in literature, in
science and even in war. You all know
how Joan Of Arc led the armies of France
to victory, and how Moll Pitcher stood
at the mouth Of her cannon, pouring con-
fusion into the British ranks.
Not SO great as these women of martial
fame were the Milkmaids Of bort, but
still they have their place in history.
If any Of you ever 90 to Holland the
land of wooden dikes and windmills, it is
quite possible that you may find your
selves some day in the ancient town of
bort, or Dordrecht. 1t is q grand old
city Here among these antiquated
buildings with their queer gables and
great iron cranes, many an interesting
historical event has taken place.

milkmaid. They are there TO commem-
crate the following historical fact:-
When the provinces of the United
Netherlands were struggling for their
liberty, two beautiful daughters of a
rich farmer, on their way to the town
with milk. observed not far from their
path several Spanish soldiers concealed
behind some hedges. The patriotic
maidens pretended not to have seen any
thing, pursued their journey, and as soon
as they arrived in the city, insisted upon
an admission to the burgomaster, who
had not yet left his bed They were
admitted, and related what they ad dis
covered. The news was spread about.
Not moment was lost The Council
was assembled measures were Immediate
ly taken; the sluiees were opened, and a
number Of the enemy lost their lives in
the water. Thus the inhabitants were
saved from an awful DOOM
The magistrates in body honored the
farmer with a visit. where they thanked
his daughters for the act Of patriotism
which saved the town. They afterward
Unidentified him fully for the loss he sus-
tanned from the inundation, and the most
distinguished young citizens We'd with
each other who should be honored with
the hands of the milkmaids. Then as
the years went by, the fountain was
erected, and the story commemorated in
stone.-Harper'S Young People.

Trust in a Promise

a little girl whose mother had always
told her the truth, and taught her to trust
In her promises, went with her one dav
to large town. The child had been
used to living in the quiet country, and
the noise and hustle of the city were not
pleasant to her. A great crowd was gath
cred to see some show in the street, and
Lucy pressed her mothers hand for she
felt afraid
Don't be afraid, my child, said her
mother. II won't take you into any
danger. Keep hold of my hand, and
nothing shall hurt you"
Lucy believed her mother, and was
happy.
After awhile it began to rain. The
mother looked at her delicate little girl
and said:
Lucy, dear, am afraid to take you
any further on account of the rain. 1
have some business in another part of the
town. l must leave you in this store.
Don't go away from it, and l will come
for you as soon as l get through my err
rands."
The child looked into her mothers
face and said:
You won't forget me, 1 know"
Then her mother kissed her, and left
her In the care of the storekeeper.
AT first she was amused by seeing the
gay ribbons measured, and in watching
the ladies who came in to do their shop
ping but after awhile she grew tired,
and wished for her mother to come. Then
a little girl older than she came in, and
they began to talk together. Lucy told
her she was waiting for her mother, who
had promised to come for her when she
got through her errands.
Aren't you afraid your mother may
forget you p asked the little girl.
No; I'm not afraid I'm sure she
won't do that said Lucy.
How can you be sure? She mag,
you know"
She promised, was the child's reply,
" and | never knew my mother to break
her prmise."
Another hour passed away. How long
it seemed to Lucy The custom ers had
all gone home. The people in the store
were putting away their goods. 1t was
growing dark, and the gas lamps were
lighted but still her mother did not
come. A lady came into the store whom
Lucy knew. She lived near her fathers
house, and offered to take hel home in
her carriage.
No, thank you, ma am, said Lucy
mother said she would come for me, and
| know she will keep her promise" At
length her mother came. How glad Lucy
was to see her And when they were
sitting by the Preside in the evening her
mother told her this was just the kind of
trust that God wanted his children to
exercise. He gives us promises, in his
Book, and expects us to believe them, Just
as we believe the promises of our parents
and dear friends.
