And bcsought him 70 look VI his arrow,
"'Tis useless he cried, "you must mend H.

But i HsSsi vltAOu, touchiag-pn break It,
For there's Hymea beginning to popt;

Little Cupid went on with his pitliul tale
TIL Vulcan the weapon restored,
''TheTe, take II, young sir; Try II n1W-itit tall

The urChin shot outRld rare havoc he mRdei
The wounded and dead were untold
But no wonder the rogue had such Strengthening
For !6 thea arrow was laden with gold.

THE SAVING HABIT.
Something About the Advantages OF Hon.
estly-C Conducted Ruilding Societies.

Something About the Advantages OF Hon
estly-COnducted Building Societies.
A writer in New Haven Building News
has the following to say upon the habit of
saving something for rainy day, or against
the time of need: THE savings of the me-
cbanic and laboring man are necessarily
limited, and, in the ordinary way of laying
by little now and then they may get dis.
couraged on account of the length of time
necessary to accumulate sufficient to ac-
complish these desires and are very likely to
give up in despair when year after year
passes and they still see the object far of.
But with the assistance rendered by the
union of individuals exactly IN the same con-
dition of life with himself, he can command,
in the beginning of practical life, the means
which, without this union, would require
years of toll and self-denlal, and then he
would arrive at the ideal of his mind when
his capacity for Its enjoyment would have
passed the meridian, and his pathway, in
consequence of years of toll, is necessarily
downward. Here he begins at the end, as
it were, and secures the benefits Of years of
saving before he has made any accumula-
ton; and in liquidating his engagements
with the association only returns thereto
what he would have had 10 pay landlord for
rental, while feeling that only for a short
time is this necessary. and then his obliga-
tions are ended, renders it comparatively
easy task, for he is working to the end he
wishes to attain, and there is positive moral
certainty that he viii and can reach it How
much better, then, for every man who is
within reach of these great and good insti-
tutions to connect himself Herewith and
secure his own independence, and thus feel
conscious that his energies have not been
expended in producing an income for the
support of another, to the exclusion of his
own person and family"

OLEo VERSUS BUTTER.
An Unparalleled and InexcusabIe Case
HusbandIV ViIIainv

An Unparalleled and InexcusabIe Case of
HusbandIy Villainy.
Mrs. Blank is q model housewife. She
spends portion of each day in personal su-
pervision OF the domestic arrangements of
The household. She directs the purchases
made tor the family harder and only the
choicest visnds will be accepted. On one
point Mrs. Blanks particularly positive. 1t
is, says the Chicago Tribune, the selection
Of butter.
Nothing but the choicest Orange County
product is allowed on the table. She has
often said that ''if there was one thing she
was posted on it was butter"
Her husband was skeptical, and resolved
to test his wife's judgment. So he purchased
firkin of the choicest New York butter at
A.40 pound and had the lid stenciled t'oleo-
margarine" Then the willy man had the
word partially erased as if the merchant had
sought to conceal the true nature of the tubs
contents. The tub was sent home When
he went to dinner he was confronted by Mrs
Blank as soon as he had crossed the thresh-
old.
John" said she, in a severe tone, ssare
you out OF your headl What do you mean
| by sending that horrld stuff home?''
''Why, my dear, 1 am assured that it is
clean, and good deal better than half the
butter we get. So thought we might give
it a trial, at least"
| This reply nearly took the good lady's
breath away. Finally she broke forth:
And do you think am going to eat that
! stunt Why, the moment / tasted it felt
sick. If you want to eat it you may, but ]
don't propose to fly in the face of Provi
dence in that way"
Before her husband came down to dinner
he let his daughter and son into the secret.
| AT the table some of the 80 leo'' was set be
| fore the master of the house. He ate freely
of it and finally induced his children to par.
| take.
"Why, mamma" said the daughter, ''it's
every bit as good as Orange County butter
| Try it."
''No, thank you." was the freezing re
ply.
The son joined his sister in praise of the
''oleo," and finally Mrs. - was induced te
try little.
''And you folks call this vile stun goodi
Why, it fairly chokes men
The next day Mr.. went to his wife
