than In 1884, the liabilities have ,dscFeased
nearly 50 per cent. Tho number Of traders

Tho Little Cotta1e Maiden.


What was her name? do not know.
But she was real little girl, eight
years old, with bright eyes and gentle
ways.
She lived in a cottage with her
mother only a few steps from the
church. She liked to knit and sew
and sing.
One day when this little girl sat by
the fence a gentleman stopped to talk
with her.
''How many brothers and sisters
have you?' he asked.
Two of her brothers were far away
on the sea, two lived in a town near
by, while brother and sister were
buried in the churchyard. How many
will she say there arc: Hark! this is
what she said:-
ooh, master, we are seven.'
''How can that be?' thought the
gentleman. He counted. 1.-Two are
in Heaven" he said. He was sure
there were only five left in this world.
But the little girl shook her head and
said over and over again. I'VE are
seven"
She told him how she would take her
knitting and sit by the little graves in
the churchyard and sing-sweet hymns,
perhaps.
Though her brother and sister were
in Heaven she counted them with her
other brothers and sisters. We may
do this, tor we do not really lose our
friends when they die and 20 to Jesus.
BY and by we shall see them in beau
tiful new home in Heaven.
The gentleman went home and wrote
some pretty verses about the little girl
and called the story 1--WE are Seven"
Ask mother to read the verses to YOU.

Peculiarities Of tho Apaches.

The Apaches have smoke signals by
day and fire beacons at night, and sys-
TENS of telegraphy understood only by
themselves. The displacement and
ovcrturning of few stones on a trail,
or bent or broken twig, is note of
warning like the bugle call to disci-
plired troops. The many crosses dot
ting the roadsides of Arizona and New
Mexico mark the graves of murdered
men. 1.-The country seems one vas
graveyard" writes Susan E. Wallace,
IF we may jud &c by the frequency of
these rude memorials" Trained by
their mothers to theft and murder
from childhood, they are Injured to all
extremes of heat and cold, hunger and
thirst. They are cunning as the red
fox. insatiatc as tigers, and so ingeni-
Gus in preparing for surprises that they
will envelop themselves in a gray
blanket and sprinkle it carefully with
earth. so as to resemble granite
boulder, to be passed within few feet
without suspicion. Again, they will
cover themselves with fresh grass, and.
lying motionless, appear as 4 natural
portion Of the field.
