Their progress was necessarily slow.
Tho stranger leaned heavily on Norris
arm, moving with painful and dragging
steps, but prCkesting against any pause,
though his breathing came thick and
heavy, and his overtasked strength seemed
to be giving way Through by-ways, by q
dark and devious course, they came at last
into narrow direct which was crowded
with small shops, mostly Of secondhand
wares, ill-smelling clothing stores and
noisy saloons. At the side entrance Of one
of these latter they finally paused, when
Norris patience had become almost ex-
hausted.

seen, nor where one would be safe at all

" Well, good night said Norris, thrust

could make up his mind to offer the coin
which he held between his fingers, the door
was flung back from within and an irate

the small, bare hall and narrow stairway

. A little girl presented herself at the
counter OF the Dime Savings Bank and
handed bank book to Mr.. Woolfenden,
tho genial cashier.
She was little thing, and hardly

tears stood in her wistful blue eyes.

CHAPTER XIII.
AN EyENTFUL NIGHT.

The air was full of soft snow-fakes when
Norris again found himself in the street.
The gas lamps were like dim, yellow blurs
against the thickened atmosphere, and the
electric lights were like hay moons. The
sound of footsteps and the rattle Of vehicles
were muffled; cold blasts whistled about
the corners; there would be hard freezing
by and by, and bitter discomfort for all who
had to face the inclement night.
Norris did not mind the cold, but he
plunged along at great pace, intending to
take street car for the avenue, but had
not vet reached the line when he stopped
suddenly, as a sharp cry, followed by
deep groan came to his ear.
The sounds proceeded from side street
near ut hand, and remembering his own ex-
perience in that dark alley, he ran toward
the place, to find black heap upon the
sidewalk, which lay silent as no ap-
preached.

The Working of Rutter.

Never lose sight Of the fact that tho
all important point in making good
butter lies in working 1t properly. All
other conditions are simply tributary
to this. One wise man says he can
take melted butter and by properly
hardening it, he can work it into fine
grain once more. This is a pretty bold
statement, and yet it may be possible,
and shows how skillful one may be-
come in this line OF dairying. II we
wished to test the butter-making ca
pacity OF an applicant for an important
position, we would be satisfied to watch
his work on the butter-worker and
putting the butter in the tub, then put
the trier to it and note the grain. This
would tell the whole tale, so far as his
skill was concerned. We therefore
advise those who wish to become pro-
ficient in this art to make close study
OF producing a correct grain, for with
out this knowledge your study and
labor will be all thrown away.-Amerf-
can Darynlan.

McnArr TO Me y

Norris paid that proposed visit to his
uncle when he left the bankers home. He
found Amos Bergman deep in a study of
Vidocq, but none the less glad to have his
boy back in the quiet cottage which was
sometimes just little lonely for even such
self-sufficent man as Uncle Amos.

naturally enough he got tired Of that after
time. Resides, he'd got little good out Oh
his stolen fortune. 1t wasn't the love OF
money made him steal it; it was the love of
ease, the desire for luxury, good living and

A Monkeys Temperance Lesson.

In my youth, says II writer To an exchange,

He shook all our chcstnuts for u.s. One day
my friend stopped at n tavern, and gave Jack
about half "A glass of whiskey Jack took
the glass aud drank its contents, tn ELECTS
of which soon set him skipping, hopping and
dan ing. Jack was drunk. We agreed TO
come u the tavern next day, and SEQ II Jack
would drink again.
| called in the morning at my friends
but instead of being as usual on his box Jack
was not to be seen. We looked inside, and
there he was, crouched up in heap. Come
said his master. Jack came out ON three legs,
applying his fore,pa to his head Jack had
the headache. He was sick aud couldn't go
So We put il oil three days We then met
again at the tavern ana provided glass for
Jack. But where was he, Skulkng behind
chairs Come here, Jack" said his master,
holding the glass out to him.
Jack rctreated, and rs the door opened he
slipped out and ih n moment was on the top
of the house His master called him down.
Jack refused to obey. My friend got whip
and shook it at him. The monkey continued
on the ridgepole. His master got gun and
pointed il at him Jack slipped over to the
back of the building. Ho then got two guns
and had one pointed on each side OF the
house, when the monkey jumped upon the
chimney and got down in one of the ilues
and held on by his fourpaws Ny friend
kept that monkey twelve years afterwards,
but never asked him again TO take whisky.
