the garden to see if the tomatoes would be
ripe for the morrow mornings breakfast.
She was STOPPING over the vines, when a
shadow came between her and the moonlight.
She looked up, it was Leonidas DOckley, a
tall, well-made young fellow Of eight-and-
twenty, most striking contrast to his father.
"Marla, what is the matter" cried he.
Nothing is the matter" answered Maria,
with a little hysterical laugh. Isuppose
you've come TO scold me about your father.
But couldn't help it."
"Has he he been meddling about the post

And then Maria told him the tale of the
Squire's wooing.

Ifshe buys dress for $1s she gets $12

If, however, she wants pair of shoes,
which formerly cost $3.50 to $3.50, she has

A Lucky Year.

Ifyou have the blues cheer up. Perhaps
it has never occurred to you that years with
three Fights in them are lucky years. They
don't come often, only once in thousand
years, but it is lucky person who lives to
see one of them. There is an old Chaldean
superstition that year with three Fights is
one of unlimited blessings. None but lucky
stars are in the ascendancy, fields bloom with
abundant harvests, the cattle are lowing on
thousand hills, shepherds lead the focks
through green pastures and by the still wa
tiers, and business enterprises prosper, every
thing you touch turns to gold, want and
famine skulk in their hiding places until
these days of universal prosperity are over
Pestience seals the lips, and no foul breath
poisons the atmosphere, mirth holds high car
niva, and for twelve moons signing and sor-
row shall flee away. Those who have faith
in this ancient superstition will derive addi-
tional comfort from the construction of the
figures in this year. There are three OF a
kind and one spot. 1t is not the best ar
rangement of the figurative symbolization
that could be made, yet it is better than any
thing that will be done in the next l, 900

Than to live what folks call life of ease,

An enjoyin' himself as he says he can,

Alvin out here every day,
In this kinder easy, careless way,
But hour out here is bettern day

AS for that JUS look at the flowers aroun'
A.peepin' their heads up all over the groun'
An the fruit a-bendn' the trees way down,
You don't find sech things as these in town,
Or ruther In the city.
As said a.ore, sech things as these,
The flowers, the birds and the bum lebees,
An alvin out among the trees,
Where you can take your case an do as yoi
please,
Makes it bettern the city.

Bout this kind of life a-being rough,
An I'm sure its plenty good enough,
