Used to tagging the trains all her
life.
At that moment another remarkable
fig.re presented itself to the astonished
eyes of the passengers. A man dripping
wet, bruised and scratched as though he
had been drawn through briers, came
tearing toward the cars, stumbling and
almost falling at every step As he
reached little Polly he snatched her up
and covered her face with kisses.
"You little darling" he cried do you
know what you've done2 You've saved
the life of more than a hundred people. J"
Polly, nervous and excited, began to
cry. One after another the passengers
came hurrying out of the train and
crowded around her and kissed her
until she was quite ashamed, and hid
her head upon the kind tiagman's shout
der, whispering ''PleaSe take me away
to find papa and mamma"
Almost the last to ajight were Polly's
parents. "Why, it's our Pollyn' they
both exclaimed at once
The draw was now closed and the
conductor cried ''All aboardn' The pas
sengers scrambled back to their seats
again. Polly's father took her into the
seat with him, and now she looked
Cdluly dI Iue pCOpIO do ItON Sd'hClON
round, and answered politely all ques-
tions put to her, but refused the rings,
chains, bracelets ard watches that the
grateful passengers pressed her to &C
cept as tokens of their gratitude for
saving their lives.
At last Polly grew tired of SO much
praise and spoke out:
ideally, don't deserve your thanks,
for / never once thought of any one but
papa and mamma. 30 keep your pres
ents for your own little girls. Thank
you all the same"
Those that heard her laughed, seeing
they could do nothing better for her than
to let her remain unnoticed for the short
distance she had to go.
When Polly was lifted out Of the car
and stood upon the steps Of the station
while her father looked after the lug
gage, the passengers threw kisses and.
waived their handkerchiefs to her until
they were out of sight.
A few days afterward Polly was aston
ished at receiving a beautiful ivory box,
containing an exquisitely enameled
medal, with these words engraved upon
it:
''Presented to Polly Gardner, whose
courage and presence of mind saved a
hundred lives. - Yanks8 Blade.

WISE WORDS.

Least said is soonest mended.
Those who excel will succeed.
Laughter is the daylight of the soul
Three things to do-Think, live and
act.
The most effective coquetry is limo
cence.
Whenever the speech is corrupted so is
the mind.
The world itself is too small for the
cOvetous.
Laziness travels so slow that poverty
soon overtakes him.
Three things to hate-Cruelty, AFRO.
gance and ingratitude.
Popularity like a warm south wind is
very pleasant but like the wind, when it
changes may bring storm.
Powerful organizations crush out OPP.
ponents often, by sitting their virtues
and appropriating their failings.
When two persons are too modest to
speak of their own greatness, it may be
accomplished by fattering each other.
The reason a man is surprised at the
success of another is because he cannot
comprehend beyond his own standpoint.
He who is positive without real con-
victions is tyrant, he who has real con-
victions without being positive is a
craven.
We cannot overestimate the fervent
love of liberty, the intelligent courage,
and the saving common sense with
which our fathers made the great expert
ment of self Government.
The greatest of fools is he who imposes
on himself, and in his greatest concern
thinks certainly he knows that which
he has least studied, and of which he is
most profoundly ignorant.
Friends must be torn asunder, and
swept along in the current Of events. to
see each other seldom, and perchance DO
more. Forever and ever, in the eddies of
time and accident, we whirl away.

Money Made a. 9cnimg Hens.

Hundreds of farmers who never kept an ac,
count, would kill every ''pesky hem on the
farm, if it was not for the women folks" The
women intuitively know that the hens do not
'eat their heads off every six months" but
properly kept pay better than any other farm
animals
This is true. A record, simple to keep, so il
would be used and show the facts in detail
would prove that every hen paid profit. They
could he made to pay, from one to three dollars
each. Mr.. James L. Burgess, Nashua y. II.
reported to the Nashau Telegraph that his
wife made clean net profit last year, of S36 IS
for eggs alone, from only sixteen hens. He
thinks her success was largely due, to using
Sheridan's Condition Powder, a much adver-
tised preparation to make hens lay.

AT THE DRAW BRIDGE.

Polly Gardner had been spending her
vacation with her aunt Mary in the
country. She would have been ''per
fectly happy" but that her father and
mother were obliged to remain in the
city. 1t was five weeks since she had
seen them, and it seemed to Polly like
as many months
One lovely afternoon Polly sat on the
horse-blOck Idly kicking one foot back
ward and forward, watching aunt Mary
as she drove off on a visit to a sick
neighbOr,
Just as aunt Mary was hiding from
sight by bend in the road she heard
the crunching Of wheels, and on look
ing up, found it was the grocer and post
mar from Willow Grove. He checked
his horse at the gate, and fumbling
slowly IN his coat, drew out a white en-
velOpe and read in a loud voice:
miss Polly Gardner, in care of Mrs
Mary West, Willow Grove, in haste.
Then he peeked over his glasses severe
Iy at Polly, and asked sharply: 'Who's

''Oh, that's me- cried Polly, Jump

Mary West is aunty. Please give me

"Yes, of course said Polly, indig-
nantly. Pm nine next week"
This was the letter:
DEAREST POLLY-Papa finds he can leave
his business for short time, so that we have
concluded to spend the remainder of our va
cation with You and aunt Mary. We shall

A Fish Imprisoned in a Demijohn

The other day several boys went swim
ming in the creek in the rear of the
Rome PENN distillery. They found
cracoed demijohn in the water, which
they threw on the bank, when they no
ticed something wiggling about inside.
Imagine their surprise, says the Lititz

over a foot long, so large that it could
not escape from the broken vessel. It
must have found its way inside some
time ago. and liking the jug as a hiding
place remained there until itgrew too

Detective FallacieS.

A prominent English dete, tive, who
recently visited this country to work up
a case in the interest of the Bank of
England, told me that ne was called to
the South kensington Museum, in Lon
don, a few years ago to arrest gentle
man on suspicion of having stolen very
valuable old Roman coin, believed TO be
the only one of the kind extant. Upon
presenting an official order he had been
permitted to take the coin from the case, to
which he had seemingly returned it after
examining it for some time. But when
the attendant was about to lock the case
the coin was missing. The gentleman
Indignantly denied having it, and re-
fused to be searched. The detective l
have mentioned, by a fOrcible search,
found the coin upon him and was about
to take him to prison when, as the at
tendant was about to replace the coin in
the case, he discovered the one belong
ing to the museum. just where it had
slipped out of sight when the gentleman
restored it. 1t seems there was another
of the coins, and that the gentleman had
purchased it and had been anxious to
compare it with the one in the mus cum
to establish its genuineness. Thus you
see how black circumstances may some
times appear against the most innocent
persons. PHILADELPHIA NelcS.

THE LEATHER LATCH STRING.
How dear to my heart is the home of my
childhood,
A board rooted cabin half hidden from
view
Where 1 grew like a weed springing up in the
wildwood,
And chung to the home which had sprung
up there too;
The old lean to kitchen, the smoke-house be-
side it,
The straw-stack with shelter of thatch
covered DER
The ash hopper near, where the wood-shed
could hide it,
And cen the rude latch-string which hung
on the door;
The old fashioned latch-string,
The brown-faded latch string,
The long leather latch-string
Which hung on the door
The Iatch-string! how often when hungry and
I grasped it quite carefully lest it should
catch;
For 1 knew it was rotten as well as quite
faded,
So pulled it down gently, to lift up the
latch:
The noon meal was ready-how quickly
seized it
A bowl full of mush with sweet milk brim-
ming DER.
Not full-blu,hing goblet could tempt me to
leave it,
When l pulled the old latch string which
hung on the door;
The old-fashioned latch-string,
The brown faded latchstring
The long leather latch-string
Which hung on the door!
The shot pouch 1 carried (methnks still see
And the same risky squirrel that pestered
my soul,
AS L shouIdered my fint-loc and FASTENED to
tree it,
But alas it fled from me and hid in hole
The old weedy coward still fondly view it,
And the path, with tall horse nettles thick
" grown DER,
How l scratched my bare feet every time 1
ran through it,
To reach the old latch-string which hung
on the door;
The old-fashioned latch string,
The brown faded latch string
The long leather Iatch-string
Which hung on the door!
And when far away I strayed from that
dwelling,
Returning, hailed it with many a shout,
For L knew at a glance-'twas signal I'M
falling
That the folks were at home when the latch
string was out
But the dreams have all faded, which
fondly cherished,
When barefoot l romped on the old
puncheon floor;
And the clap-board rooted cabin itself has
nigh persisted,
As well as the latch string which hung on
the door:
The old-fashioned latch-string,
The brown faded la string,
The long leather latch string
Which hung on the door.
The spring. branch still runs at the foot of
the meadow
Where we cut the tall clover and pastured
focks,
But the harvest time held DER my life dark
shadow
For | hated to ''cradle,n and pile up the
shocks;
And now, when removed from that loved
situation,
The tears of regret will intrusively pour
AS fancy reverts to the old habitation,
And signs for the iatch-string which hung
on the door
The Old-fashOned latch-string
The brown faded latch-string
The long leather latch-string
Which hung on the door!
