81 am Miss Hardy" said she, 81 beg
your pardon but"
Here she stopped with the syllables
OF further utterance fairly frozen on
her tongue.
A cold chill crept through all her
veins, as she recognized the curly,
brown HAIR, the honest grey eyes, the
thick moustache.
But the Rev. Cecil was equal to
the emergency.
"Don't beg my pardon" said he,
gravely, although there was roguish
sparkle in his eyes. "Beg the par
don of society-of public opinion.
"Ns, Miss Hardy" he cried, sudden
ly dropping his solemn mannerism,
"don't look so distressed! Ofcourse
it was mistake. Don't l know that
it was?"
"Oh, dear! oh, dear !" gasped Hat
tie. 81 thought it was Jonas Reneau.
l never had seen him, you know, and
it was so dark, and-and-"
"And so you scolded the wrong
man. said Mr.. Cray. "Well, l will
pass the lecture on to the genuine Of
fender at the very first opportunity.
Only lam afraid l cannot emphasize
it half so neatly as you did"
ooh, DON'T" said Hattie, piteously
lifting her little hand. "Please
don't!"
"No, l won't" said Mr.. Cray "we'll
forget and forgive"
And when Cousin Prodgitt and
Mrs. Hardy came in Hattie and the
young clergyman were earnestly dis
cussing the rival merits Of the geran-
iums on Mrs. Hardy's flower stand.
Mrs. Prodgitt stayed until spring
and when she went back home she
told her daughter that Hattie Hardy
WAS engaged to a young minister.
Cor at least l suspicion she is," she
added. "She won't own nethin' for
sartin but things amt now as they
used to be. Folks as was engaged to
be married used to be proud of it.
But Hattie's queer girl. She hasn't
been brought up as girls was brought
up in my day."

Few men have farmed honestly
and industriously, and lived econom-
ically, and failed.
The truth is always the best in the
long run, and the fact is that verac-
ity, as the B. & 0. has ever found, is
like honesty, very much the best pol
icy. If some of the big-talking lines
would make Inauguration rates good
on all trains, and not make low rates
apply only to cheap trains, the pub
lie would believe more in them. Fact!
NORTHERN MINNESOTA is excited
by gold finds, which, while grossly
exaggerated, appear real ly, from pri-
vate advices at hand, to have some
merit. Land, absolutely valueless
for agricultural purposes, is held at
enormous figures, and good deal of
apparently barren rock Is claimed to
run hundreds of dollars in gold and
quartz, which is stimulating good
deal Of blind buying. What there is
in the new district can only be ascer-
tained in the spring.
WHEN the B. & o. makes reduced
rate, less for the Inauguration in
many instances than one fare for the
round trip, it throws open it's entire
line with every train included in it's
schedule to its patrons, not as on
some other lines,dsbarring passengers
from fast trains, and exacting not
only full, but double fares. In other
words, those who buy their tickets
for Washington via the Baltimore Il
Ohio road get 'the very best the COM
pany has in the shop" as the saying
goes, for the reduced rate.
A KANSAS farmer, who had nine
head of sheep, put the money that
came to him from the sale of mutton
and wool into more sheep. In nine
years he had 1,7O0 sheep, worth
$4,000.
THR Baltimore & Ohio does not
say, as do some other lines, "Your
ticket, sir, is only good or such and
such train without paying EXTRA"
that is, go down into your pocket
again, or take a slow train. On the
B. &. 0. the famous limited trains
are at the service of it's patrons, one
and all, and the advantage of making
from one to six hours quicker time
to Washington than by the limiteds
of any other lines, is secured; and
don't cost penny over and above
the regular round-trip rate, at which
the inauguration tickets are sold.

A Circular on the Subject Issued to
Roman catholic Physicians.
NEw YoRK, ftov. 25-Every Roman
Catholic physician in this city is in receipt
of a circular conta ming declaration by the
pope that the killing Of all unborn infant is
never rig ht, even when the life of a mother
can be saved in no other way. This bears
upon tho surgical opera tion known as crani-
otomy, which is generally practiced by the
profession in cases where a choice is forced
between losing two lives and saving one by
i1astsning the Ell of the other. Inquiry of
Bishop Corri ,an elicit; that the letter to the
doctors is not official, and did not emanate
from his office. The belief is that it was
sent out by some person who was profoundly
impressed on the subject, and sought to
accomplish what he or she deemed good
purpose Tue bishop said, however, that
the statement of the Pope's ruling was in
itself correct Tho question had
been discussed carefully by the
inquistors-general at Rome, who
voted unanimously against the practice,
on the ground that the taking of a human
life could not possible be justifable. except
as a legalized punishment for crime. This
finding was formally referred to the pope,
who ratified AMI promulgated it few
weeks ago.

REMEMBER THE POOR.

In obedience to the proclamation
of President Cleveland and to the Gus
tom long honored in the land, prep>
arations are being made for the celebra>
lion of Thanksgiving day. The daily
round of toll and care will cease, and the
day will not only be a respite from labor,
but will he an occasion of festivity and
rejoicing as well as dcvout thanksgiving
to Almighty God for all his blessings.
But above all things on that day we
should cultivate spirit Of charity and
kin1liness and should set to it that before
setting down to the festive board loaded
with the good things which kind Provi"
dence has given 70 us, some other house :
hold be made glad and happy. 1.-THE
poor ye have always with you" is true
here and everywhere, and when to-
morrow you order for yourself the good
things for the feast, order also for some
family whose life is made hard by sorrow
and poverty. President Cleveland. in his
proclamation, which, by the way. IS
model of excellence in Its way, full OF sem
timents that do honor to his head and
heart, thus refers to the duty of sharing
the good gifts of life we enjoy with those
less favored than ourselves:
And let there also be on the day thus
set apart reunion of families sancllteNl
and chastened by tender emotions and
associations, and let the social intercourse
of friends, with pleasant "reminiscences,
renew the ties of affection and strengthen
the bonds of kindly feeling. And let US
by no means forget, while we give thanks
and enjoy the comforts which have
crowned our lives. that truly grateful
hearts are inclined to deeds Of charity,
and that Il kind and thoughtful remem-
brance of the poor will double the pleas
ure of our condition and render our praise
and thanksgiving more acceptable in the
sight of God.

that Prince Alexander. at the head Of the
Bulgarian troops. is following up
his victories. and is driving the
Servians slowly but surely from
Bulgarian territory. The latest dis
patches say that Prince Alex nder stormed

city Monday evening. The prince made q
triumphant entry into the city, and was re-
ceived with enthusiasm by the populace.
LONDON. Nov. 25.-King Mian's efforts

poning an armistice or settlement of any
kind until he has achieved something that
he can point to as an Offset to Prince Alex

retrieve his fortunes either at Slivniza or
before Widdin. he will be in a very poor
position to claim anything in the
adjustment which will be decreei by the

for in case of total lack OF success in the
invasion of Bulgaria it is significant that a
