connect with his suspenders. Every
morning when he gets up, and hasn't
time to sew on the buttons, he solemn
~ vows that he will DO it that night,
and not put it of, day longer. But
that night he does not carry out his
threat. He argues that there will be
time enough in the morning, and he
will purposely rise early. The next
morning he dons his dress-trousers,
and agrees with himself to wear them
for just q day or two, until he gets the

An Idyl.

/ saw her first on day in spring,
BY the side of q stream, as fished along; .
And loitered TO hear the robins sing,
And guessed at the secret they told in song.
The apple-blossoms, so white and red,
Were mirrored beneath in the streamlets
flow;
And the sky was blue far overhead,
And far in the depths of the brook below.
lay half hid by a messy stone
And looked in the water for flower and
sky,
heard a step-I was not alone;
And the vision of loyeliness met my eye.
/ saw her come to the other side,
And the apple-blOssoms were not more lair;
She stopped to gaze in the sunlit tide,
And her eyes met mine in the water there.
She stopped in timid and mute surprise.
And that look might have lasted till now,
Ween:
But modestlv dropping her dove-like eyes,
She turned her away to the meadow green,
/ stood in wonder and rapture lost
At her slender form and her step so free;
At her raven locks by the breeZes tossed,
AS she kicked up her heels in the air for
glee.
The apple-blossOms are withered now,
But the sky, and the meadow, and stream
are there;
And whenever / wander that way I vow
That some day I'll buy me that little black
mare.

A Law For Maynard Young NTeu.

When a Young man steals q sheep or
q pair of boots, which, by the way,
have probably not been placed in his
safe keeping, society has little doubt
what to do with him. 1t comes to the
conclusion in short order that he is q
thief, and puts him in jail at hard
labor or in state prison. But if he has
had place of trust in some financial
institution, and grossly betrays the
confidence reposed in him, society is
somehow struck all of heap, and does
not know what to do with him. The
crime must be covered up, the def
cheney made up by friends, there must
be no prosecution, no publicity and no
penalty whatever, and the young man
must be sent off to begin life again.
Now we believe this is all mistaken
policy as regards the young man him.
self. We believe it is terribly mis-
taken kindness. Some of our readers
probably know cases in which this poll
cy has been pursued, and the young
men in whose behalf it has been tried
generally become wanderers on the
face of the earth, pursued by the phan-
tom of that old concealed crime left be-
nIuu. dHI O1UGu 1uSIIGS lulO uSN OuGS.
They were not vicious originally, but
they were weak, flabby morally; they
had about as much moral backbone as
a jelly fish, or a butterfly, and seeing
older men indulging in expensive lux
uries and vices they began to run the
same course until they were caught in
the trap of crime. Leniency and send
ing off into new associations are simply
wasted on such men. They need ''tak-
inc down" to the foundation and a new
start-a real one, not one of those new
birth conversions which do not enable
a man to confess his sin till he has
been found out. If conviction, penalty
and disgrace are the fit portion, and
the best thing for the ordinary thief,
they certainly are the best things for
the embezzler. Let him take his pun
ishment, with such professions of re-
pentance as he feels justified in MAX
inc, and such as courts are ALWAYS
ready to take into account in fixing the
penalty. Then let him return to his
home, and his father before him, and
begin again. He will be better off than
in some distant locality where vague
rumors of crime greater than the iact
may at any time penetrate to damn his
peace of mind. But here at the scene
of his crime and failure, he will always
have friends to welcome and encourage
every effort for a promising career and
who know the worst as well as the
Springfield Republican.

They All Know How.

[ took a large spider from his web
under the basement of a mill, put him
on chip and set him afoat on the
quiet waters of the pond. He walked
all about the sides of his bark, survey
ing the situation very carefully, and
when the fact that he was really afioat
and about a yard fromSshore seemed to
be fully comprehended, he prospected
for the nearest point of land. This
point fairly settled upon. he immedi-
ately began to cast q web for it. He
threw it as far as possible in the air
and with the wind. 1t soon reached
the shore and made fast to the spires
of grass. Then he turned himself
about, and in true sailor like fashion,
began to haul in hand over hand on his
cable. Carefully he drew upon it until
his bark began to move toward the
shore. AS it moved the faster, he the
faster drew upon it to keep his hawser
taut and from touching the water
Very soon he reached the shore, and
quickly leaplng to terra .frn1G he sped

Tigers as PIaythings.

Abram Bateman, of San Francisco,
has two tiger kittens that were recent
ly stolen from a tigress in an abandon
ed shaft Of FL Rocario mine, in Sonora.
They were eight weeks old, and weigh
thirty pounds apiece. Having been
petted all their lives, they are as tame
and playful as domestic kittens, and
betray few signs of ferocity except
when feeding, at which time they are
unapproachable. They are kept con-
fined in cage in the back yard, but
are often brought into the parlor and
turned loose for the entertainment of
guests. Then they eYince their appre-
citation of their liberty by chasing each
other, jumping over furniture, and
scattering ladies and children in every
direction. When tired of the play
the kittens either climb to their own
er's lap or sprawl on the sofa, and
then purr contentedly until they fall
asleep.

Rccreations OF Men of Letters.

Mr.. Trollope's methods of work and
recreation closely resembled those of
Sir Walter Scott, who, like Trollope,
began the days work at ) o'clock.
When the weather was bad, Lockhart
tells us, it was the practice of Scott to
labor all the morning, but the general
rule was to- be out on horseback by l
o'clock at the latest, while, if q more
distant excursion had been proposed
overnight, he was really to start on it
by 10; his occasional rainy days of I'M
intermitted study forming fund in his
favor out of which he drew whenever
the sun shone with special brightness.
At that time the chief sport was cours-
ing, of which Scott seems to have been
very fond. Sometimes he exchanged
coursing for fishing. Later in life his
recreation took q form more in har-
mony with Mr.. Freeman's tastes.

High on the hills overlooking the val
ley of the LackawaXen IS a lake rs clear
as crystal In the Indian days, as now,
it was a favorite resort for deer. The
Indian lover launched his birch canoe
on this lake, and anxiously awaited the
coming of deer at nightfall, hoping
that among them might be one of the
charmed members of the herd. His
hopes were realized. just as the last
rays Of the sun were glinting the sur
face of the lake, a herd of deer stole
from the woods and stood knee-deep in
the cold water. Among them was q
pure white doe. Quick as lightning
flash the silyer-tipped arrow leaped
from the warriors bow. 1t cleaned
for an instant in the air, and then sank
into the white deer's heart. With q cry
that resounded far among the hills the
white deer fell dead, and its compan-
ions fled in terror to the woods.
While the death cry was still echoing
about the lake, the young braves arms
fell powerless by his side. His tongue
refused to give voice to the cry which
came to his lips. Every member was
powerless. He could not move n mus
Gle. For days he drifted about the
lake, parched with thirst and famish-
ING With hunger. No succor came,
and not until two moons had come and
gone was his dead and wasted body
found, upright in his canoe, floating
upon the surface of the lake. The fir
ing of the fatal arrow was followed not
alone by the. young warriors fearful
doom. At sunset of the day the arrow
sought the heart of the sacred deer, the
great chief was found dead in his wig
wan with an arrow, barbed with silver,
in his heart The Indian maiden, be-
reft of lover and parent, sought the
lake where her lover had met his fate,
and found grave beneath its waters.
The sorcerer had avenged himself.
The tribe, once great and powerful,
was never afterward able to cope with
its enemies. The lake was given the
name of White Deer lake by the settlers
who first listened to its Indian tradi-
ton, and it is known by that name
still.
Upon this legend is based the super
stitiou that remains intact in the valley
to-day, and to the ''fying in the face"
of which many individual misfortunes
and casualties are charged.-Ne10 York
