An Old Puzzle Rewritten.

eff you please, I'm a poor boy,
but I'm awfully smart, and want to
work.
The storekeeper looked at his GUS
toner in astonishment. The boy was
a little bit of a fellow, and his chin
came just over the top of the counter.
"Well," said the storekeeper, "you
seem to have pretty good opinion
Of yourself p
"That's so," said the boy, 81 lost
my place cause I was so awful
SMART
"All right. then; I'll show you
where you make a great mistake when
you say you're smart. Do you see
that jug over there:"
"No, sir" said the boy, looking
hard at a green box marked ''Six
gross safety pins
mo, there; away back in the
store"
80, yes," said the boy. :
Now, that jug is full of vinegar !;
it holds eight quarts. I've an order
for four quarts, but haven't any emp
ty measures excepting one holding
three and another five quarts. Now,
if you're as smart as you say you
are, perhaps you can measure the
four quarts from eight by using the
three and fve!'' IE"
II can do it," said the boy, ''just
as easy as fishin' -
"If you do I'll give you two dol
lars week and your clothes. Nc
guessing, now; you must measure
exactly.
IAN right" said the hoy: ''have
your tailor here in fifteen minutes to
measure me-"
The tailor might haYe come even
earlier, as the boy had the four quarts
of vinegar measured out in less than
five minutes. ...
| How did he do it!

The Curse of Poverty

Oh, cursed poverty! know thee
to be of Satan, for 1 myself have
eaten at thy scanty table, and slept
in thy cold bed. And never yet have
I seen thee bring one smile to human
lips, or dry one tear as it fell from a
human eye. Butt have seen thee
sharpen the tongue for biting speech
and harden the tender heart. Ay,
I've seen thee make even the pres
ence of love burden, and cause the
mother to wish that the babe nurs-
ing at her seant breast had never
been horn.-W. III. III. Murray.

raE IssQCous ASS miAwATmA.

Two hundred years before the white
mon landed ON Manhattan Island the
i've Indian tribes living near Cayuga
and seneca lakes had formed themselves
into league. Their laws and customs,
based A they were ON freedom and psr-
sonal right, excited the admiration of
the early jesuit missionaries. The i'm
plements used by this people were those
Of the stone Age, but their civilization
was not far behind that of the nine
tenth century. They we're proficient
IN manv Of the household arts. They
cultivated corn and planted orchards.
Peaches and apples were plenty. Their
houses were large, and many Of them
we're painted. The lroquois, though
comparatively few in numbers, by their
superior intelligence and organization
made their power felt from tho ocean
70 the Mississippi. They we're the VIZ
tual rulers of tho central part of North
America.
Inc principal agent in forming this
league, and thus promoting the IroQuois
power, was the chief. Hiawatna. He il
no myth, a. the reader Of LOpQfelOw's
poem might suppose. Hiawatha was a
real parsonage. Panied az he was by
the strifss existing between the neigh
boring tribes, he made 1t his life work
u bring them into a confederation for
the purposes of peace. He ':ved to CON-
pete the work upon which his heart was
set. He formed nation 80 strong that
In after years both England and France
made every effort 70 secure an alliance:
and this alliance, enoe formed, was an
important factor IN determining the
English supremacy in America. The
work Of hiawatha sounds like q 70
nance, but the published researches Of
Lewis II. Morgan aud Horat o Hale show
shat ~ have not formed An exaggerated
conception Of the man or of the people
whom he served.
