A Travelling Man Discovers That he Has
Slept with STANCE Company.
A gentleman who travelled in the rural
districts of the west some years ago says
that to this day he has creeping sensa-
ton" when he recalls his experience IN
spending the night at a farm house. 1t
was late in the summer, and the farmers
were doing their threshing, while their
wives were emptying their ticks ard refill
ing them with clean straw.
Just before dark the traveller reached a
comfortable looking house, where hearty
welcome was accorded him when he asked
if he might stay all night While eating
his supper he heard the farmers wife say
to her husband and son:
The straw tick from the spare room

day and forgot all about it until this min

When the tired guest YVES shown TO his
room he undressed hastily and climbed
into bed. Every movement Of his body
caused the straw to rustic under him, and
pretty soon he discovered that it rustled
even when he was lying perfectly still.
He was of nervous temperament. and the
strange noise disturbed him.

would rustic loudly. He faucied that he
felt something moving under him. The
rustling grew more frequent, and he won

Progressive Spelling.

Let an umpire be chosen, equipped with
dictionary for consultation, and pencil
and paper. Let all the rest stand in line,
and number one spells the first syllable of
any word that occurs to him, but does not
mention the word. For instance. the word
constantly" may have occurred TO him, so
be says con con. The next person spells
the next syllable, thinking perhaps of con
sequently" The next in the line may think
the word CONSECUTIVE" so spells his syIla-
bic. As each syllable is spelled and pro-
nounced the umpire writes it down; every
one who makes a mistake goes TO the foot,
the rest moving up.
Every one who completes word scores
one; accounts are kept, and the person
who makes five wins the game. In case a
word is formed that sounds unusual, con-
suit the dictionary. Avoid proper nouns
and slang and keep TO the English Ian
guage.-Home Queen.

One morning one of the students found
part Of his work completed which he had
left unfinished the previous day, and the
amazemeut Of the young men increased
when day after day they found additions,
and sometimes corrections, made on their
canvases. They accused each other of tam
pering with their work in their absence,
but this was denied, and matters reached
a climax when one of them, who had begun
picture of the Descent from the Cross, on
going to his work in the morning found
the head of the Madonna painted in it.
How it got there they could not tell, and it
was better than they could have painted.
So they told the master and showed him
the head. He was surprised at its excel
lence, and thinking Sebastian must know
about it, as he slept in the room every
night, he told the boy that unless he found
out the unknown artist by the following
morning he should be whipped.
The poor little negro was in an agony Of
terror, for be himself was the mysterious
painter. 1t appeared that he had a natu-
raj genius and great love for art, so had
secretly studied and painted on the can
vases Of the students before they arrived in
the morning. Fearing punishment if he
was found out he decided TO expunge the
Madonna's head and never paint any more.
When early the next morning he looked at
the beautiful face he had not the heart to
rub it out, but set to work to finish it in
stead. So absorbed was he as the time
went by that it was only on hearing a rus
tie behind him that he turned his head
and beheld the students, with the master
himself, looking on in admiration.
The poor little slave fell on his knees.
imploring pardon. But MurilIo, kindly
raising him up, asked him what reward he
should give him for his skill and industry.
Sebastian only asked for his fathers free
dom, which Murillo at once granted, and
giving him his own liberty also, received
him among his pupils. He soon distin-
guished himself and became a celebrated
painter; but he was better known as Mu-
rillo's mulatto than by his proper name of
Sebastian Gomez He died in 1880. His
principal paintings may yet be seen at Sc
willie.
