A Dangerons PaIr Of stookings.

A man at Albert Lea, Mimi, had the
worst time explaining a telegram to his
wife. He is sporting man, who does
good deal of hunting and fishing, and he
has a pair of rubber wading- stockings
which he wore when hunting in marshes.
A friend of his wanted a pair Of them, and
he promised to send to New York and get
them. The two men were great friends,
and the man who had been promised the
wading-stockings and who lived at North
Branch, got ready to 60 hunting last fall
and wanted them. So he telegraphed to his
Albert Lea friend as follows;
"Send my stockings at once, as I need
them bad. Your Blonde Darling"
The dispatch came to the mans residence,
and his wife opened it and her hair stood
right up straight. When the innocent hus-
bnud came home she put on q refrigerator
expression, and handed him a pair of her
own old stockings done up in paper, and
told him he had better send them to his
blonde darling at North Branch. He was
taken all Of a heap, and asked her what she
meant and said he had no blonde darling
at North Branch or any other branch and
after he had said he did not know q woman
anywhere, and never thought of supplying
stockings to anybody but his wife she hand
ed him the telegram. He scratched his
head, blushed and then she thought she
had him, but finally he laughed right out loud
and went to his room, where he keeps his
guns and things and brought out the new
pair Of rubber wading- stockings that he
bought for his friend, each Of which would
hold bushel of wheat, aud handed then
10 his wife and asked her how she though
they would look on blonde darling. TheI
he told her they were for his sporting
| friend Of the male persuasion, and she ask
ed his pardon but insisted that the Telegram
| had bad look on the face Of it, and wa
enough to scare any wife out Of her wit

Barriers.


Between thy life and mine,
Rugged and strong, resistless barriers rise.
Day after day they show bolder front!
Uplifted to the skies,
Shutting me out from thee.
Oftimes there comes binding mist of rain,
But through the darkest, thickest clouds 1
know
The sun will shine again.
Between thy life and mine
Sullen and cold the turbid waters roll
Beneath the angry waves hopes bark was
wrecked
Long ere it reached its goal
Yet in the quiet deep
'Faith's anchor holds" fast with its golden
chain,
Binding two hearts that else would drift
away
Upon a sea Of pain
Between thy life and mine
Stretches afar a wide and dreary plain
Across the waste we gaze with longing eye,
Heart cries to heart-in vain,
The echoes answer back
"In vain, in vain !" and so we turn away,
With one long, shivering sigh Of agony
In loneliness to stray
Between thy life and mine
The hand Of faith has woven some bright
threads,
With one glittering radiance thro' these
shadowed days
steadfast luster sheds.
Parted though we must be,
These golden fbers shall our hearts entwint
The sweetness of unspoken sympathy
Blending thy heart and mine.

Objectionable utterances, and these do not, Of

exercise OF this prerogative; but not unfre-

The Little Missionary.

have met her many mornings
With her basket on her arm,
And a certain subtle charm,
Coming not from her adornings,
But the modest light thet lies
Deep within her shaded eyes.
And she carries naught but blessing,
As she journeys up and down
Through the never-heeding town,
With her looks the ground caressing;
Yet know her steps are bent
On some task of good intent.
Maiden, though you do not ask it,
And your modest eyes may wink,
I will tell you what l think:
Queens might gladly bear your basket,
If they could appear as true
And as good and sweet as you.
