and telling her ne was sorry. what
he was sorry for he couldn't have said.
He got up and drawing her to him,
kissed her again and said: " Goodbye,
Beth.''
He could see her lips move. but he
didn't hear any thing. He went to the
door, opened it, and went down to the
street and wondered why the horses
and wagons didn't make any noise.
How silently they went along; how
quiet every thing was. He couldn't
even hear his own footsteps. He looked
at his watch and saw that it was al
most twelve o'clock. The bank had
been open two hours. He would be
late for business. Well, he would
hurry.
John had forgotten that he was no
longer cashier of the Drovers' Bank,
he only remem oered that he would be
late at his desk. He reached the bank,
walked in, took off his coat and hat
and started to 60 behind the desk.
Mr.. Knicker confronted him and he
suddenly saw it all again. The note.
the newspaper, and the night before at
Beth's. This man, this benevolent
looking old gentleman who was frown-
ing at him now, had branded him as a
thief
"It's lie. It's lie,'' he shouted.
Great God, how his head ached Well,
he had told Mr.. Knicker that it was a
lie; he could 60 now.
He took down his coat and hat, put
them on, and went out into the street.
How was this? This wasn't the city
street he had just left; this was the old
grass-grown lane running before his
old home. Row the sun shone. How
the birds sang. There was the yard
with the old farm wagons and hay
stacks standing at one side, and yes
yes-there was the old tortoise-shell
cat summing himself on the fence.
There were the old milk pans, bright
as silver, standing in row on the
grass by the kitchen door. But best
far best of all-there was his mother;
his mother who had lain in the church
yard up on the hill for ten years, hold
ing out her arms to him.
ooh, mother! Oh, my dear old
mother!' All was black.
When John regained consciousness
there were many faces around him,
but the light was so dim that he
couldn' see whether he knew them or
not. He heard some one say, in soft
voice: He has opened his eyes. !"
Then one of the faces leaned forward
and kissed him. 1t was Beth.
"John, John, don't you know mep"
John lifted his arms and pressed the
sweet face to his breast.
John, here is MIR. Knicker come to
tell you it is all a terrible mistake"
John didn't look at Mr.. Knicker but
kept his eyes on the sweet face close to
him. His hand gently smoothed her
hair, and he kissed her lips.
"Beth, my darling Beth, how l love
you. Of course forgive you. and we
will go" His voice sounded strange
and weak. How hard it was to talk.
1--WE will 60 and get married, won t
we, dear? Why, there is mother.
Mother, this is Beth. We are going to
be mar"

Make Your Own Lard.

Those farmers families that are
supplied with pork raised upon the
farm make their own lard, which is
much sweeter and purer than any
that can be bought, and those families
that are dependent upon the market
would do well to make their own lard,
by buying the leaf fat at the markets
and rendering it themselves. Cut the
fat in small pieces, and put in kettle
with very little water, but slowly,
keeping well stirred; at least three
hours will be required. Strain into a
jar through strainer cloth, squeez-
ing all that can be; let cool and then
set away in cool place for future use.
It will be found to be nice and sweet

TEMPERANCE READING.
A DRuNkARD's CHILD.

How these scars came did you ask
Tender are your tones and mild
Can it be you do not know
That am a drunkard's childf
Long ago one dreadful night,
He who claims a fathers place,
Mad with runs malignant power,
Threw glass at mothers face.
But it missed its deadly aim
was sleeping on her breast.
Seeing these unsightly scars,
Need tell you all the rests
Deep within the vale strayed,
While they watched with bated breath.
Then with lingering steps came
Back to life far worse than death
Better far that had died.
Than this lonely, bitter life,
lean never hope for love,
Never be cherished wife.
Even little children turn
From my face in fear and dread:
Do you wonder 1 am sad,
Often longing to be dead9
o. these frightful, hideous scars
Close all doors to loves domaini
Blighted life, and broken heart
I can never smile again
Now my story you have heard,
Do you wonder that 1 hate
Zen the very name Of rum
And all that can intoxicate?

FEEDING FOR FLAVOR.
The Difference in the Eggs Laid b
Hens of Different Breeds.

The Difference in the Eggs Laid by
Hens of Different Breeds.
It is suggested that a new industry
might be created in the raising of
poultry and various domestic animals
upon certain kinds of feed which will
impart to their flesh new and palatable
favors. 1t is well known, for in
stance, that the exquisite SAVIOR of the
canvas back duck is due to the wild
celery it feeds upon in Southern
marshes, and the delicious Congo
chickens owe their superior excellence
to the pine-apples they eat. The grouse
of the far Western plains is aromatic
with the wild sage; wild ducks and
other sea fowls have fishy flavor; and
the fish fed to swine may almost be said
to be eaten over again by the consumer
of their pork. Milk is especially affected
by whatever is eaten, as every farmer
can testify, whose cows give bitter
milk whenever they eat the leaves of
burdock, etc. There can be no doubt
that the nature of their food greatly
mobiles the taste and quality of the
meat of most animals, and perhaps
with proper effort some really valua-
BILE discoveries may be made in this
direction.
The art of feeding for something be-
sides mere weight or size will. in the
near future, give place to the higher
art of feeding to crafty taste. AS the
capon now ranks high above ordinary
poultry, without special methods of
feeding, how much greater must its
superiority be when fed for flavor as
well as for tenderness and size! Ever
and anon some enthusiastic breeder Of
thoroughbred fowls descants upon the
merits of his favorite breed. their
tender, juicy flesh and rich, highly
favored eggs, not to be compared with
the dunghills long ago discarded y
forgetting that the dunghills were
truly named, and that from hard
scratching for living in the barn
yard, they produced the small, tough
bodies and ill-favored eggs complained
of, while his thoroughbreds have
yard to themselves, are fed on the
choicest grain and grasses, have moth
ing but pure water to drink. and all
the delicacies of the season, from the
dinner-table.
What breeder aas not noticed the
difference in flavor of the eggs from
his best yards and from the general
flock running at largee Instinctively,
the best fowls receive the best food
and most careful attention, and the re-
suit is richer and better favored eggs.
Feeding for flavor must sooner or later
become one OF the high arts of poultry
culture. N Y Market Journal.

A MAlDEN's SONG.

ROMANCE.
Oh, If were millionaire,
Without a care
AS free as air,
Methinks the world would seem more fair;
The bright sunlight,
The starry night;
The birds sing sweeter in the air.

The richest robes on earth I'd wear,
And radiant gems
In diadems
Should shed their splendor in my hair

Oh, IL were a millionaire,
Without care,
AS free as air,
Bedecked by fashion-debonair,
Her proudest queen
I'd reign serene,
And lave in pleasures fount and there
At court and ball
I'd hearts enthrall,
And they should all their love declare,

And fearful eyes,
And maids would envy everywhere

And passed the nights
In false delights,
At ball or masquerade, or where
Ny lavished gold
Men might behold,
In matchless gems upon my hair
And love the maiden millionaire!
Idreamt was millionaire,

And debonair;
But In my soul / found despair,
And poisoned wine

And empty signs
OF loves pretenders-and their snare

lSLAMISM IN INDIA.
One of the Results of Mohammed's Teach
ing of Conversion by Force.

One of the Results of Mohammed's Teach
ing of Conversion by Force.
One-ffth of the human race dwells
in India, and every fifth Indian at least
is a Mohammedan, yet many people
contend that Islam is not a creed
which propagates itself vigorously in
the great peninsula. Where do they
imagine that the fifty-odd millions
of Mussulmans OF India came fromp
Not ten per cent. of them ever claim to
be the descendants of immigrants,
whether Arab, Persian or Pathan, and
of that ten per cent. probably half are
descendants only by adoption, the war;
rior chiefs who followed successful in
vaders all owing their pravest adher-
ents, if Mussulmans, to enroll them
selves in their own clans Almost all,
moreover, are half-breeds, the proper
ton of women who entered India with
the invaders having been exceedingly
small. The remainder-that is at least
ninety per cent. of the whole body
are Indians by blood, as much children
of the soil as the Hindus, retaining
many of the old pagan superstitions,
and only Mussulmans because their
ancestors embraced the faith of the
great Arabian. They embrace it, too,
for the most part, from conviction.
There is a peculiar idea in this coun-
try that India was at some time or
other invaded from the north by a
mighty conqueror, who set up the throne
of the Great Mogul and compelled
multitudes to accept Islam at the point
of the sword; but this is an illusion.
Mohammed authorized conversion by
force, and Islam owes its political
Importance to the sword, but its spread
as faith is not due mainly to COM
pulsion. Mankind is not so debased
as that theory would assume, and the
Arab conquerers were in many coun-
tries resisted to the death. The pagan
tribes of Arabia saw IN Mohammed's
victories proof that his creed was d.
vine, and embraced it with startling
ardor of conviction; but outside Arabia
the bulk OF the common people who
submitted to the Caliphs either re-
tanned their faith, as in Asia Minor, or
were extirpated, IS in Persia and on
the southern shore of the Mediterra-
mean. Tho Arabs colonized on an
enormous scale and, being careless
what women they took, mixed their
blood fire ely, so that in Syria, Egypt,
Soudan and the enormous territory
stretching from Barca to Tamgier the
population is essentially Arab, with
more or less of crossing. Then Tar
tars were persuaded, not conquered,
and they and the Arabs are still the
dominant races of the Musselman
world which has converted no Euro
pean race except a few Albanians-.
with all their intellectual superiority
and their military successes the Arabs
never converted Spain-and has gained
its converts in China and in Africa
almost exclusively by preaching. It
was the same in India. Here and there,
as in Sind and Mysore, small popu-
lation may be found whose ancestors
