The storekeeper paid me fair price
for my marketabses. Then I helped
look after the geese, and part of the
feathers were mine. Picking geese
is not nice work, as anyone who
handles an unruly gander has learned
by experiences; but mother did 1t neatly
and quickly. Our feathers sold well.
The spring and summer few by be-
fore we fairly realized that school
would soon be opened for the winter.
One November afternoon, great girl
as was, waited at the gate in the
cold to get the first glimpse of father.
who would bring me my books when he
returned from town.
About five o'clock he came, and he
had not forgotten one desired article.
My money was sufficient to pay for the
books and a pretty calico gown for
mother.
Mother was so surprised and pleased
that she laughed and cried alternately,
and called me her good girl.
We voting people had a good teacher
that winter, enjoyed equally well our
spelling matches, skating and sleighing,
and even the morning and evening work
was not a hardship, for we were SO full
of young life and spirits.
One of our circle, a studious boy, has
made US proud of our old school friend,
having been a United States senator
and successful lawyer, deserving tho
honored name earned and retained.
The young people now have other
means of earning money than dropping
corn, yet in every household, city or
country, there are chores to be done by
somebody. It will be comfort to the
son or daughter, when years have made
sad changes, to remember that they
lightened father and mothers work.

CROWDS AT TRBYES
The City Full of Pilgrims to
See the Holy Coat.
AN ARMY OF 1NvAL1Ds PRESENT
Doctors Busy Furnishing Them With
Medical Certificates.

Prussian Military Officers Refuse to
Knesl Whom the Relic Was Exhibited.
English Tourists Show All Difference to
the Forms of the Church-The sAnctity
of the Garment Questioned by Visitors.
TREvEs, Aug. 22.-The crowd here is
SO great that that the ordinary accommo-
dations of the city are more than taxed
The cathedral clergy are besieged with
requests for permission to permit inva-
lids to touch the Holy Coat, and the doc
tors of the city are overrun with appli-
cations for the medical certificates which
the Bishop requires before permitting
access to the relic.
All the pilgrims are evidently not de-
voices, and in some instances there has
been notable display of irreverence.
Much feeling has been caused by the
conduct of the Prussian military officers,
who refused to kneel when the relic was
exhibited. The clergy say they should
not have been present unless they were
willing to comply with the outward
forms of worship.
The English tourists, most of whom
are Professionals, knelt down when others
did and showed all Difference to the forms
of the church. The question of the
authenticity of the relic continues to
rage bitterly, and has done much to re-
vive religious animosities, which of late
have been dormant in Germany. Cath
olics generally uphold the sanctity of
the garment, although not universally,
while Professionals point to it as an object
lesson in superstition.
1t is probable that the courts will be
called upon in some way to take cog
nizance of the matter, either in an action
for Islander a prosecution for profan-
ing religion.

his god does him a great honor to come
and partaze of his fruits and grains.
1t is probable that some of the peo-
pie do feel angry to see their crops
destroyed, but no one dares to curse
the monkeys or drive them away, for it
would cost him his life. The god will
also roam about i'll the houses, even in
the upper rooms, and takes whatever he
likes.
The Europeans who settle in India
look upon these holy monkeys as great
plaques. They seldom have gardens, as
1t is not safe to shoot the thieves or even
drive them away.
The holy monkeys are great runners,
jumpers, leapers and climbers. Whole
companies of them are sometimes seen
together high up in the forest where
they leap through the air from branch
to branch; it is said that their long
tails act as rudders, SO they can turn
around in the air and go in another di-
rection.-Sophie Scissors, in Our Little

you so your gowns needn't trouble YOU"
MY mother was one Of the good women

My first work was dropping corn and
beans. Father and a neighbor hired me
to drop while they covered" 1t was
tiresome work dropping corn until the
endless rows were planted.
The sun was scorching hot and my
feet were often blistered until the soles
grew calloused. Father gave me a pig
to fatten but must raise feed for it,
corn, pumpkins, and help mother in the

Then mother gave me half of the ap-
pies that pared, cored and dried.
There was market for the dried fruit

He is the best known of all the Indian
monkeys. He is a tall, slender fellow,
and he has long legs and remarkably
Tong tail; his tail is one-third longer
than his whole body. The color of the

is soft and very fine. His face and his

From olden times these MONKEYS

Officers Well.

Officers Well.
LONDON, Aug. 22.-The British gov
eminent has notified the government of
China that from this time forth no
British officers will be allowed to serve
in the Chinese navy.
The British government has taken this
step on account of the refusal of the
Chinese authorities to furnish an
explanation of the insult of a
Chinese officer in hauling down the
flag of Admiral Lang while that
British officer was in command of
the Chinese North Coast Squadron at
Hong Kong.
Admiral Lang, In resigning his com.
mission in the Chinese navy gave as his
reason that the Chinese officers of the
squadron were insubordinate. Later, as
a result of Admiral Lang's resignation,
the Chinese government declared that 1t
would never again intrust real authority
in the navy to any foreigners.

THE new steel cuirass, which covers

for bullet projected by any rifle known
to modern warfare to penetrate it.
Another advantage which it possesses
over any similar piece of armor, and
one which even non military mind
can appreciate, is that it is so jointed
that it can be folded up and packed
away in an ordinary knapsack with
other portions of the soldiers kit, and
without taking up an excessive amount
