Fred, yon forgot to put you tools

@Oh. dear. it's such a bother to put
everything away fre.ted Fred. Can't

@No, want them put away at once

Fred knew she required instant obedi-

"Oh, dear, I never can learn this long
lesson, he grumbled that evening when
he sat down to prepare his recitations for
the next day. It's such lot Of work to
translate all these sentences.
Dr. Morton had dropped in for little
chat with Fred's father, and he looked
up as he heard the impatient exciama-
ton.
What do YOU think I've been doing
to-day, Fred ?"
What, sir asked Fred, glad Of di-
version from his books.
" Breaking a little girls arm
Don't you mean mending il, doctor 2"
asked Fred, thinking that the doctor had
made a mistake.
a No 1 broke ii, answered the doc
tor. some time ago this little girl broke
her arm. and it was very badly set, and
has been 80 stiff ever since that she could
not use it as she wanted TO. She makes
lace very cleverly, and her earnings have
been a great help to the family, but since
her arm was hurt she has not been able
to work at all. We held a consultation
at the hospital to-day, and decided that
the only way to help the child would be
TO break her arm again and reset il"
think I'd rather never be able 10
do anything than have that done, ex-
claimed Fred.
Why, that's unfortunate remarked
the doctor. I've been thinking that
there is a bone about you that ought 10
be broken very soon if you expect to be-
come an active man. I've been meaning
to mention it to you fo- some time
Fred turned pale, He was not at all
fond Of bearing pain.

you have to break it ?'
No; l can't very well break it for
you" answered the doctor. You can
break it yourself better than any one can
do it for you. 1t is called the Li-y Jone.'
Oh, is that what YOU mean p And
he was so relieved that he smiled at the
doctors words.
Yes, my boy, that is the bone mean
and it is a bone you ought TO break very
soon if you ever expect to be Of any use
in this world. II will take a pretty de-
termined effort to break it, for It's one Of

at any rate, a place where can 90 and
take my cat without fear Of its being
murdered -
"Glory 20 with you" cried Miss Flor
/ ~, in one last spurt of wrath.
And then came three or four hours Of
Babel, Of confusion Of tongues and Of
trunks and OF parcels, and after that an
evening Of rest and quiet and heavenly
peace; and then days and days going by
so softly and sweetly that Miss FlOrry
almost forgot there was i cat IN the
world. She might have forgotten it en-
tirely but for Grimalkin's back arching
round her chair, and his velvet paw now
and then upon her cheek, It was lonely,
it would have been bitterly lonely bus
for Grinalkin, to whom she eonided her
thoughts; but, lonely or not, it was peace
and rest.
But all good things have an end in this
world. Four weeks had passed, weeks
in which she had not seen or heard Of
Penelope, and Miss Flory looked up
from her work Just before twilight, at an
imperious tap upon the window, and
in his dark brown and mottled gold sat
Spot; he had escaped and come TO his
old haunt She hesitated But it had
been his home how could she refuse to
let him in. He tapped again, as if there
were no doubt in his mind about the
duty. She opened the window the exile
bounded in, fawned about her moment
made rush for GrimaIkin, and then
found the place where his cushion used
TO be, and was just curling himselfround
and round for repose in the old hollow,
when the door burst open and Penelope
had thrown her arms round Florry's
neck.
"Itis no use, Florry,- she cried, in a
food of tears, Il must cone back. You
must let me come back have lost
Spot, and l can't live away from yol any
longer~
That night, in the remote recesses of
an out-buiIding. miss Florry Was sitting
and softly cryingtO herself and Grimal-
kin, as she held the splendid tiger-cat in
her lap and a sponge of chloroform at his
nose. q am all she said l was" wept
poor Miss Fiorry. "I'm murderer. I'm
putting an end to my own dear puss. But
1 can't trust any one else not to hurt him.
And it isn't in mortal power 10 live with
Penelope and two cats in the hOuse The
cat stretched himself comfortably, and
put his soft paw up on her cheek in the
old friendly caress. "Oh, my poor dear
Grimalkin, You've had the pleasantest
part Of your life. / did give YOU the
largest pieces-i'm glad did hope
there's a heaven for cats. I'm sure they
deserve it more than some human be-
ings. II won't be heaven for me without
one. don't know what I shal! do. I
shan't have a soul to speak to now It's
blessing that Penelope's lover died be
fore she married him. If shed had
children-if Spot had been achild,
should have had to take ehlOroform my
self Good-by, my poor dear end sob
bing softly she left Grimalkin for the
man to find, and went back to Penelope
and Spot.

Compare the two Administrations

Mr.. Cleveland retired from the
White House leaving the overlooking
treasury and the country in quiet,
prosperous condition, with good feel
ings existing between sections. In
fact the only questions Of impor-
lance with the Democrats, was, what
to do with the surplus, and how TO
reduce taxation so as to create no
surplus. The Harrison administra
ton came in and very quickly solved
the surplus question. The surplus
was soon sh0veled out to the soldiers
and camp followers by millions, in
the way of pensions. This the Re
publican leaders said would dispose
of the surplus question in Il way that
would put the money in circulation
and make good times in the county.
Over hundred million of dollars
have been squandered in this way,
and still, after eighteen months Of this
beneficent administration, the Coun-
try flooded with pension money,
we find the nation in the midst of
great money stringency, bordering
un financial panic that threatens
ruin in every quarter, and the presi-
dent and his financial secretary
alarmed at the situation, calling on
the Wall street bankers, the very
men who have had their hands in
the treasury all the while, to know
what they must do to be saved.
And instead Of peace and prosperity
ruling in the land, partisan legis'a-
ton has set the people of different
sections by the ears, class is arrayed
against class, confidence and good
feelings have departed, and heavier
burdens come to Cypress suffering
people.
