The Little SchooIma'a1n

Barbara Stuart, teacher in the little
red school house at Gold Dust Corner,
had dismissed the two-Score of children
who made up her charge, and was rest
ing her head upon one slender palm
rather YEARLY, as she fingered in the
lonely schoolroom and thought longingly
of familiar spots in her far-away New
England home.
She was pretty and lady-like, with
silken, nut-brown hair, wide, cool brown
eyes, far skin with dainty flush in
either check, and white, slender hands.
Her dress of plain black cashmere fitted
her graceful figure exquisitely, and the
linen collar and cuffs at throat and wrist
were spotless.
A beat of hasty hoofs came down the
yellow road. They cossed at the door;
and presently there strobe into the
schoolroem tall, distinguishing man,
who was known in the vicinity as "Colo-
mel joe" A broad-rimmed slouched
hat Of white felt was worn rather care.
lessly on the back of his handsome head,
about which the black hair was closely
trimmed.
Two deep-set hazel eyes looked boldly
at the world in general, and fine Ro-
fierce, brown moustaches, which were
nearly long enough to tie under the
square chin 80 deeply in the centre. A
red shirt and pair of black pantaloons
tucked into heavy cavalry boots, and
belt containing brace of handsomely
mounted revolvers, completed his outfit.
Colonel Joe was called a hard character
even in that rough mining settlement,
and the young school teacher arose from
herchair in some trepidation as he made
his abrupt entrance, noticing as he did
so that he carried in his arms q peculiar
looking bundle.
He saw her alarm, and paused midway
of the door and desk, a winning smile
lighting up his dark face as he said in
singulariy musical tene:-
Don't you go to bein' afraid of me,
little woman. / wouldn't harm you for
love or money. I've come to you be-
cause I'm in fix that nobody but q wo-
man can help me out of. Jest you look
here"
He took another stride or two forward,
and half kneeling before her, unrolled
coarse blanket from the bundle in his
arms.
Barbara gave a little cry, for there lay
a tiny three. months-old baby-girl, con-
tentedly sucking its thumb, whose round,
dark eyes smiled at her.
"Oh, the darling little baby!" she said,
reaching out her arms with the natural
mother-instinct that is in every true wo-
mans heart.
And the little one kicked vigorously
at her wrappings, and reached her fat

Clasp, hands with the new,
That slips meath the fold

REPPED FABRICS.

Three Varieties of Imported Goods From
Which Stylish Costumes May be Made.
Repped fabrics are largely used in
imported costumes, and are shown here
principally in three. materials, viz,
Sicilienne, gros-grain, and Irish poplin.
The Sicilienne is silky and soft, alike on
both sides, Grapes BEAUTIFULLY, and is
now shown in the single widths that
cut advantageously for dresses. 1t
comes in all the dark rich colors for The
entire dress, with elaborate embroider-
les wrought on the material or else ap-
piled for the trimming. The plum and
dahlia shades are particularly stylish in
Siciiicnne dresses, and black dresses of
this material are very elegant, and are
liked more especially by elderly ladies.
eros grain, faille, Bengaline and Victo-
rienne are the pure soft silks so much
used by Worth in combination. with
figured or with plain velvets. There
are elegant black gros grain or faille
dresses now made with their only or
nament pinked flounces of the material
laid on pinked bands of velvet. For in
stance, the round skirt has the short
apron drapery and long back drapery
OF plain black gros grain, while across
the front and side breadths COVERING
the space from the apron down are
three gathered ruffles of the silk pinked
in leaves two inches deep, rest
ing on straight black velvet three
inches wide that is pinked in SINH
lar leaves. The silk BASQUE has
plain position back, but the front has
a pleated vest, with the inner pleats
falling on two pinked velvet bands.
This simple design is repeated in all
dark silks, and affords relief from the
elaborate combinations so much used
at present. Pym's Irish poplins are
again in the market in all the stvlisb
shades of brown, dahlia, and smoky
grays, and are also used in LONDON
dresses in bright shades of poppy red
and in navy blue. The striped poplins
are in great favor abroad, especially in
red with green, blue, or brown, and are
employed for skirts. with basque of
the solid colored poplin in either the
bright or dark shade. There are also
pretty house dresses imported in very
light shades of poplin, such as ecru.
fawn. pearl, gray, or the palest sky
blue. These are made in the quaint
vet simple-looking styles that Young
English women have adopted, with the
round waist folded in front in surplice
and gathered to belt, while
the skirt has very long and graceful
drapery that nearly covers the founda-
lion, requiring only ruche or narrow
rutiles ;at the foot; this in the Highest
golden brown shades is worn by bru-
lettes and blondes. Il is thought

Fodder that is properly saved and
fed in combination with clover hay and

pint of white Indian meal, two table
spoonfuls of sugar, a half teaspoonful

The fine dust from much Travelled
roads has considerable manuring prop
critics. Some farmers have used it as
divisor to more evenly distribute phos-

the ammonia which would otherwise
escape.-NeU England Farmer.
After the crops are all harvested,
the wood lot should receive attention.
Trimming off the low branches of trees
intended for timber, and cutting out the
lower underbrush, will admit more air
and light and promote a quicker
growth. A good part of the supply of
'ire woodmay perhaps be thus obtained
which otherwise would be mostly
wasted.-N. Y. Herald.

above prepared, and pour into hot gem
pans or into common pans, cook in

. 1t Is well understood by farmers
that there is joint worm that attacks
barley, and often makes it light weight.
1t is similar to but distinct from Joint
worm that attacks wheat. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that the barley Joint
worm also, under some circumstances,
attacks the winter grain, and hence is
suggested caution against preceding
wheat with barley, which is quite COM
mon in winter wheat growing locali-
ties.-Erchange.

A child about nine years of age became

weak that il was deemed dangerous TO try

A DIR. Nicholas who was attending her, re-
ceived copy of the Paris Figaro, French
Academy of Medicine by Dr. Deithill, said
that the vapors of liquid tar and turpentine
would dissolve the fibratious exudations
which choke up the throat in Group and

set fire to the mixture, taking care TO have
large pan under IL as safe guard against
fire. A dense resinous smoke arises making

says immediately seems by experience

the patient coughs up microbcides. These
when caught in glass, may be seen TO dis

days after the patient entirely RECEIVERS"
