That was how Lottie fairfield made
the great conquest Of her life. Later
on she was w0oed and won, bat noeh-
ing IN her whole life ever gave her
such pure happinszs and delight a.
the thought Of that poor, miserable
old man, whom she had redeemed
from his existence eofwretehednsss and
selishness.
Under her auspices The red house
IN the valley was cleansed, and swept.
and painted, and furnished from eel
lar to garret. Two brisk, neat hand
maidens Of her own choosing replaced
the efiete and Grabbed old Timothy.
The garden was cleared and replant.
ed, and filled with sweet. briehs now-
ers; muslin curtains flutterea at the
windows, and the hall door, standing
wide open, seemed to invite the pass
ing guest to come in.
But the greatest change Of all 10 in
old Dunstan himself. He was really
possessed Of great wealth, and now
makes no secret oft. He gives large
ly to the local charities, and no one
who Is sick and in want ever appeals
to him in vain; he Is nOlonger Grabbed
and rough, but cheerful and sOciable.
Lottie has made him send articles and
reviews upon his beloved chemistry
to the leading scientific papers Of the
day, and his name is now well known
and respected among clever men.
For, says his little mentor, If a
man has talent like yours. it is very
wicked indeed net to give the rest Of
mankind the benefit Of it,
Lo.tie trots down eVsry day 10 the
red house and says she takes lessons
OF her old friend; but he always main
tains that she teaches him ten-fold
what she learns Of him.
In short, Dunstan Reade is a hap
py old man because he il no longer
selfish and greedy of gain, and be-
cause he has found something to love
and TO live for.
From the day, sir he says to Mr..
Har6eld, that / found your little
girl asleep in my arm chair, my life
became an altered thing
As to Lottie. she only says:

Little snt.

Up in Tompklns County, N. Y,
lives a well-to-do farmer named Pit
kins, with his wife and two daughters.
Having no sons he is dependent on
hired help. the supply Of which is
regulated according to the season. A
number of farm hands being necessa-
ry during planting and harvesting Of
crops, while one being usually the
only assistant needed in the winter.
Realizing the need of boy on the
place to do the chores for which it
did not Justify to hire man, Pitkins
talked the matter over with his wife.
and they decided to select q waif
from the poor house and raise him I'M
as one Of the family, which Of courss,
meant food and clothing until he was
OF age, and three months schooling
in the winter.
With Farmer Pitkins to decide was
to act; SO the next day he and Mrs.
Pitkins drove over in the buggy TO
the County Poo: House and made ap-
plication for an orphan. The Super
intendent, always willing to dispose
of his charges TO farmers. ordered out
the boys in a line for @ review. and
Pitkins and his wife eyed the bows
closely and talked with them. He.
with an eye to service, selected q
large, strong boy; but she. with a
motherly instinct, more akin 20 smy.
pathy. picked ont little Sut. the sun-
ject Of the Sketch.
Why, Mary" exclaimed Pitkins,
"he's too srnalli''
"Bnt he'll grow, John, and then I
like his looks better"
Looks ] Tut, tut. What have looks
got to do with it?''
"a great deal. IF we are TO adopt
him and raise him up as a son, and
even if he il only to be farm hand,
We do not want q boy to grow up dis
honest and vicious. / don't like the
dig boys face"
So Farmer Pitkins grumbled little
over her choice, as be lifted Sut into the
buggy between them and drove home.
The boy was, indeed, small for service
on q farm but heseemeG grateful for the
home. and was willing to do all the
busy tasks his hands were put to do, and
would put his little hand on his tired
back without a nurmur, after q long
time saving wood. Mrs. Pitkins
seemed drawn to him by his very
diminutive size and strength, while
Pitkins seemed almost to dislike him.
and was always grumbIing about che
boys being too small, although the
farmers wife would very sensi6ly re-
mark that she believed the willing

vailed throughout Great Britain and
Ireland yesterday afternoon and last
night. Telegraph lines were destroyed,
trees uprooted, private and public

ter, Bradford, Widnes, Hull, ,Dewsbury,
Berwick, Nottingham, Wolverhampton,
Newry, Kildwick and Glasgow, and In
many If not most of these places lives
were lost.
Fears are entertained regarding the
safety of the Channel steamers. A ship
was sunk at the Albert Dock, Liverpool.
The chief officer of a steamer which had
just arrived from Glasgow was blown
upon the pier and kille,l. AZ Lincoln
the parapet of the tower Of the Cathe-
dral was blown down. The British ship,
Liverpool, from Quebec, for Greenock
is total wreck near Stranraer Scot

fishing boats are believed to have per-
ished. The number of lives lost cannot
be ascertained for several days.
