A LITTLE WOMAN.

Perhaps you never knew her. She
Was only known to those who love her
And still revere her memory
Pure as the stars that shine above her.
by Gods strange providence bereft
OF father, mother, sisters. brothers.
And homeless, friendless ioyless left,
She freely gave her life for others.
IL grief she bad, We could not tell
We dared not ask, we never knew it;
Her hear. was like hidden we'll
Deep, sealed, and only God saw through Il.
On errands sweet with mercy, swift
She moved, her face of Joy the token;
Her willing hands the weight would lift
From many heart despairlng, broken
In veal and Woe, in calm and storm,
Smiling, she trod the path of duty;
Not beautiful in face or form,
For in her life was all the beauty!
Did any weep, she wept with them;
Did any fall, she comfort gave them;
And when the whole world would condemn
She stretched her woman's hand to save
them,
And many a sweet God bless herr came
From hearts her tender touch made human
And lips, all trembling, breathed her name
And said GOD bless that little woman,"
The day she died they came to me
And said: NO boon would we deny her;
Some word above her grave must be,
Now that the Lord has called her higher"
wcpt, but did not weep alone
Because my grief was theirs in common;
said l: place nothing on the stone
But this: Here lies little woman !"

They were nearing Riverview. Mrs.
Bedford ran out to meet them.

Lovingly they were locked in each

August died; September had come.
October, ruddy and golden, was creep
ing across the land, when Miss Russlin
decided she must go home; she really
must
She did.
But not for long did the city hold
her. EARLY in November Jim Bedford
appeared. Ills wooing was simple and
speedy.

There seems to be little going on
in musical circles of late, but there
is much talk, among musical people,
of the marvellous cureof Miss b.

long suffered from severe throat
or bronchial affection, superinduced
by Catarrh in the Head, and who
has been perfectly cured by the
use of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,

Golden Medical Discovery. For
all bronchial, throat and lung affec-

unequaled remedy. When compile

Perfume serves to attract insects.
Artificial flowers were attached tc
branches of trees by Nageli; some Of
these he scented with essential oils; in.
sects were attracted to these in an Nm.
mistakable manner, while others which
he left unsce nted were almost neglected.
The perfume appears in general to pro.
coed from the honey, which constitutes
the chief attraction inducing insects tc
frequent flowers. In the anemone, pop.
Ply and st. Johns wort we have exam
pies of honeyless flowers which are,
however, sought by insects which feed
upon their pollen. of which they pro.
duce an excess. The more attractions a
flower presents the better will be its
chance of Decentralization, and thu
greater the likelihood of it's offspring

flowers, on the other hand, are in dam
'cordingly, most small, obscurely- colored
flowers are either self-fertilized or are
adapted to have their pollen trans ported
by the wind. Wild-fertilized flowers,
such as the rye grass, nettle and ash,
have small flowers without conspicuous
coloring, honey or scent

ton of the blossom becomes ineligible.
Once the stigma has been pollenated, a
flower seldom lasts any time. Garden
ers are we'll aware of this, and take pre-
cautions to exclude bees from their
green houses; Otherwise, they would
find it impossible to keep their flowers
in good condition for any length Of
time On the other hand,it is wonder
full how long a flower may remain fresh
and bright if it has not been visited.
We have already noticed this in the
flowers of the currant when protected
by muslin. The fuchsia is another ex
ample. This plant when grown out
doors may sometimes be seen, especia
ly toward the end of the season, with
it's flowers in perfect condition, after al
most every other flower has disap-
peared, giving thus nnmistakab!e evil

Decline Of Countrv Iif..

France, which is generally held to
present conditions as favorable. to tho
agriculturist as any other country,
shows the same steady decrease in the
population in her country districts
which is noticeable here. To nation
which, unlike America, owes little to
immigration, this is. no light matter,
and French writer's and political econ
omists are much exercised over it.
Among the many panaceas suggested to
remedy what is felt to be very serious

Her face, perfect in outline and patrl-

DR.. Harland had been her mothers
doctor before her, and his dictum was
law to Miss Russlin.
She had found Riverview as delight
full as sanitary. The big, cool, pleasant
house, the velvet lawns, the forest
grounds, the brooks and the bridges, and
wild, pleasant places-she hated the
thought OF leaving it SO soon.

The young lady to whom the ecstatic
and in terrogative remark had been adj
dressed lifted her beautiful dark brows
in languid curiosity. She was coming
up the steps of the large, handsome,
red-shingled farm -house-a residence
which was sufficiently modern to be
artistic as we'll as massive.
For the Beifords had been wealthy
people when, few years ago, they
built Riverview for a country residence
The collapse of great New York
bank had made imperative less elab-
crate mode of life than that to which
they had been accustomed, and even
necessitated the taking Of boarders dur.
ing the summer months. To be sure,
these were people who had been their
friends in more prosperous days or
others recommended by them.
Quite eScluSive-however liberal the
terms offered-was Mrs. Bedford to per.
sons desiring TO enter her home. There
was no hesitation, however, concerning
Miss Russlin, when old DR.. Harland's
letter requesting accommodation for her
had been received.
Miss Russlin's name, position and per-
'sonality were all of enviable holiness
And very sweet and amiable girl she
was, too, Mrs Belford told herself
warmly, when Olga Russlin had become
"A member of her household-the very
sweetest and prettiest girl she had ever
known.
What has happened?' questioned
Olga Something very delightful?"
VERY to me, my dear-I beg pardon,
Miss Russlin."
Don't beg pardon" said Olga, with a
laugh.
She was the most unceremonious of
mortals.
I've just got letter from JIM" said
Mrs. Belford, land he is coming home"
Miss Russlin was up now Oh the
broad, low-railed balcony, which was at
this hour deliciously cool and pleasant.
The awnings of green and white, the
bamboo-fringe screens; the soft, odorous
rugs OF ginger grass, the willow settles
and Austrian rockers, the pots Of ver-
bona and mignonette-all made the
place paradise of repose.
''Jimn' echoed Miss Russlin. "Who
is Jim?"
She sunk down on rattan stool,
threw aside her parasol and began
drawing off her gloves.
els it possible you've never heard me
speak Of him? Why, jim is my boy"
"Oh!' said Olga.
Over her went sweeping sensation
of Indignation. A boy coming here
here, whittier she had been sent for abb

'And what rest" in mute misery
queried Miss Russlin of Miss Russlin,
