Hsw Aunt Helen Was Misunderstood.

They had come to Aunt Helen's to
live, Cora and her little sister Milly.
Aunt Helen was mammals own dear
sister, and next to being with mamma
herself, the children could think of
nothing nicer than to be with auntie.
Mamma had gone to Heaven.
One morning there was great deal
of work to be done. Aunt Helen had a
new girl who did not know how to
make bread or dress turkey, Or, In
fact, do much of anything but break
dishes, and what should Uncle Dick do
but send up note that he would bring
three business friends home with him to
dinner. Aunt Helen wished that she
had two pairs of hands. She wished
several other things besides. One was
about Cora's hair, the long fine hair
that looked in the sunshine like spun
gold, and. tangled easier than gold
would have thought of doing.
.'Oh, dear!' said Aunt Helen, twitch-
ing at the comb as it tangled in the yell
low threads. "What . perfect nuisance
this hair is. I wish it were no longer
than Milly's; it would look . great deal
neater, and not be such trial to take
care off,
Poor Cora. II Aunt helen had not
been 50 busy. she would have seen the
great tears in the little girls eyes. She
did not care 50 very much about the
yellow hair herself, and it was trial
to have it combed, especially when peo-
pie were in o hurry, and pulled; but
dear mamma had seemed to love each
separate hair, and it made Cora cry to
think of losing it. Still she thought
about it great deal; all the morning
indeed, while she ran of errands for the
busy auntie. 1t was not until nearly

The Toad. =

This valuable friend to the farmer is
too much neglected. Under the old
system of farming he was able to take
care of himself, but under our present
system his life is so surrounded by dan
gers that without some protection he
will be soon driven from all cultivated
fields. if not completely annihilated.
We enact laws to protect the birds that
they may destroy the insects, but the
toad who destroys ten destructive
worms in the garden, where a bird de-
stroys one, is entirely neglected, if not
forgotten. Once was the time when the
toad was happy, except when he had to
dodge the harrow teeth or stone from
the hand of some thoughtless boys; his
days were passed in his underground
cabin, shaded by friendly weed, in
sweet repose, while his evening and
early morning hours were passed in
feasting Oh well fatted cut worms, and
the beetles and bugs that dared to show
themselves on his domain; hut now,
alas! how changed is his condition.
With the spring comes the new tangled
harrow, crushing and pulverizing every
thing that comes in its way, the poor
toad has but little chance to dodge, and
but an instant to be miserable, as he was
supposed to be under the old harrow,
before his life is sacrificed; but if he
should escape, it is but a few weeks at
most, before new and greatly i'm
proved pulverizing cultivator comes
along with speed that renders it inn
possible for him to escape, and when
once under, what must seem to him as
some Internal machine, his life must
end. Should he by any possibility es
cape the patent pulverizers and cult
gators, he has yet another peril to en-
counter; in the potato patch he finds
feast not to be resisted; the well-filled-
out beetles are devOured in quantities
that soon fills him OR as full as the
beetles; but alas, he hardly reaches his
cabin before he is in the last agOnies Of
Heath, caused by. the Paris green the
gardener has given to the bugs. Thus
ends the life of the last toad in the
garden, and the gardener sheds not
tear, or even realizes his loss; his atten-
lion is taken up by the wholesale de-
struction that the bugs and worms are
making among his choice plants; he
tights right and left, with his own feeble
hands, to get the mastery of his enemies,
if he ever knew, that by the
of the toad he has lost what
would be an efficient aid in the de-
struction CT the creeping enemies in the
garden.
Be friendly to the toad, and assist
him to preserve his life among the new
hangers which in these modern days
him.-MassGchnsetts Plough

After ta1kinU

cordial welcome. After talking a
little while she said, somewhat mis-
chievously:
"By the way, John, you walked over
last time, did you not?''
mo, replied he, not comprehend
ing; don't you remember, l rode old
Charley?n
John could not muster courage to say
what he desired until leaving time,
and then, as they stood upon the
porch, he, with his arm about her
waist, told his love and asked her to be
his wife.
john she said in reply, "let me
tell You story"
'Once upon a time there lived not far
from here gentleman and lady. The
gentleman, who esteemed himself man
of great prudence, was in love with the
lady, or at least his attentions led her to
believe so.
