and with Joe still leading ME, I went
into the miserable room where his poor
mother was lying. / had never seen,
any one die, but [ knew she was dying.
Joe seemed to realize it, too, for the|
first time, as he looked at her, and
springing forward with a heart-broken
cry, he knert down beside her. She
smiled and patted his hand.
"God will be good to my son, "wereher
last words. 1 telephoned for another
man to come and gather the facts nee
essary to be published, and 1 devoted
myself to Joe. A doctor who had been
sent for arrived soon after I did, but it
was too late. He sent for a m TO
prepare the poor woman for burial, and
when it was all over, Joe went with me
to my home.
That little newspaper paragraph next
morning, glanced at by thousands of
eyes, unnoticed by thousands more,
was the record of a brave. boys work
for two long years. The paragraph
only said something about the drunken
brute who had finally beat his wife to

Imprisonment, and ended with the EN-
tence: "The family had been supported
by the twelve-year-old son, who sold
newspapers for a living"
The brave boy had borne his burden
and his disgrace all alone, and had
never told even me, his best friend, of
his life and trials. If I were not writ
ing a true story, I might tell you that
we made up a purse for Joe; but we
did nothing of the kind. We only en-
couraged him to work on, and as fast
as he showed himself worthy, a better
position was given him. Last year he
announced that he had saved up money,
and was going to leave us for school,
and on examination he proved to be
ready for the last year of high school.
Now, at eighteen, he is studying in his
first year at college. and is just as al
ways-a brave, independent b. y, strong
in all the qualities which go to make up
a pure, earnest and successful man.

Mystery Of Minerals.

It is painfully evident to the most adj
vanced scientists that, in: the multitude
of theories, and in the best lightthat the
slowly accumulated wisdom of centuries
has thrown. upon the question, our real
knowledge of the character and f6rna-
ton of minerals is very limited and I'M
certain. Wonderful progress has, been
made during the last. half centuryin re-
gard to,some of the constituent elements
of the most common metals and the
methods of fitting them up forutility,
but the great problem of their,creation
and union with other primary elements
is still a hidden mystery. Metallurgists
have. discovered something of the effects
of oxygen, and of hydrogen gas. and its
intimate and almost inseparable affinity
with iron, but the real facts are, hidden
behind, a. veil that never has. been pene-
trated..
Iron is generally understood: to be 3
synonym for solidity and enduring per-
manenee;, yet science now proves that.
pure iron.is nearly'as unstable. as water,
and exists only as a curiosity in the lab
oratory. Some, chemists, claim that.
hydrogen is itself a metal, and it may be.
yet shown that many of the so-called
pure metals, now supposedto be simple
elements, are in, reality compounds
which science may be able to separate.
perhaps. almost into endless divisions.
Alumina has recently come into notice.
and a wide field, in. view of its ine0-
haustible resources. opens up and
stretches, out beyond our grasp into tbs
future: BY its discovery our common
clay is to be. the, mother of a mineral
whose usefulness, in the. FIXTURE can neR
now be measured.
1t may be found! that the great oceans
of air and water are. the prolific mines
from which the. miners of the fuhnre
will draw their supplies of mineral to
satisfy the demand of their day and
generation. 1t is already we'll proved
that the. atmosphere, the water af the
ocean, the planets amid comets, contain
a perceptible. quantity of mineral mat
ter.
From a general harmony of the mani
fest workings of Nature, it woxld not
be strange if it should be discovered
that the vast variety of mineral sub.
stances now known, and tbs perhaps
greater. variety to be revealed, can ba
traced back to a common primal center,
and ii will be shown that 5he infinite
varieties of form and character are but
different manifestations, under special
circumstances, of the same. great force
driven out into modiisG expressian.
Our increasing knowledge of the i'm
ponderable force, electricity, will tlssow
much light into the hidden mysteries of
the metallic world, and by its sua-like
torch we may be enabled to FOLLOW with
reverent steps, from the dim threshold
of our present knowledge, the foot
prints of mineral creation to the cralk
Of its existence. -Miaing RevicV.

Our Young Folks.
THE HOME FAIRY.

There's n funny little fairy
On his rounds by night and day,
And he goes about his GRAND
In u very funny way.
Such u tiny wand. so starry,
Bears he in his tiny hand,
And he visits every mansion,
Every cottage in the land.
Their he looks up in our faces,
With a quaint and quizzing bye.
When he finds themidark and frownin1,
OF he goes without goodbye,
But If sunny smiles and dimples
Meet his glance, to work he goes,
And before a body knows it,
Pop! He jumps astride our nose.
To our ears he creeps and whispers
Many sweet n lovely things.
In our eyes he scatters sunshine
From his pretty diamond wings.
Then. he smooths away our wrinkles
With the dazzling wand he bears,
While he sings a song, SO CHEEKY,
That he lightens oil our cares.
Oh. his task is neverended
I'LL the world in slumber liesl
Even then we dream SO sweetly,
With his sunshine in our eyes.
Has he met you on his journey?
Listen while his name I tell:
He's the merry sprite Good Nature"
And l hope you know him well.

DR.. Steele had lived twenty years at
least in this dear old house, for he had
often said that he came there when a
boy of fifteen, and he could not be far
from forty now. He was the only child
of a widowed mother who had idolized
him. When she had died, two years
before, the doctor had put an adver-
tisement in the paper that, I well re-
member, seemed very attractive to
mamma. Our arrangements with him
were, indeed, very satisfactory. He was
generous tt a fault, simple in his tastes,
punctual in his habits. From a boarder
he had become a friend, almost a bene-
factor. Had it not been for the beauty
of Blanche, or the ambition of my
mother, or the extreme warmth of the
Doctors politeness, OF perhaps a ten
derer sentiment of his that he scarcely
| dared nourish for SO young and beauti-
full a creature as Blanche-had it not
been for one or all of these, we might
have lived happily here for years. Now
we must 20 adrift again, Heaven knew
where and how. I went out that very
afternoon upon my dreary quest, and

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANA POLLS, Feb Q
Trade is Frightening up somewhat in all de-
partments with the beginning of the year. The
New YOrE Shipping List says there is a feeling
OF hOpefulness that the many and positively
favorable conditions of trade aside from legs-
lative drawbacks, will serve to give strong i'm
pulse TO the spring movem ent, and this hope has
engendered degree Of confidence that Lends
encouragement to the future. For the time be-
ing trade is conducted upon the hand -to-mouth
principle. but as consumption is all the
while going on to the usual extent, it fol-
lows that stocks al the chief distributing
paints throughout the interior must soon he re-
plenished. Our foreign trade Is not only favor
able, but indications that there will be a
larger demand for our agricultural staples than
was anticipated few months since. This is
doubtless largely due to he fact that he cereal
