A GOLDEN EGG.

"'Taia't no use ta kim bout it any
more, seliny," said Mrs. Sandridge, as
she sat in the door OF her log cabin peel
ing potatoes for supper. 1T jes' goes
right down sg'in me to see child o my
dead husband marryin' on nothin' an
seltlin' down to starve, like coon 10 a
a holler that's grown too leetle for him.
An you'll be comm to us arter awhile for
help-o' course you will-when it's es
much as we kin do now to give you clos
an vittles FOR your work"
Selma, Mrs. sandridge's stepdaughter,
turned around from the table which she
was scrubbing, and faint color flushed
into her cheeks.
"You know, mother, that my work
pays over and above all I get for it. An ef
tho lot had been divided fair between
me and Sally
"'Twas divided fairl" put in Sally
sharply. "'Twas jes' twenty acres that
Uncle Ben left us, VIC bein' both his
great-nieces; and it was measured out
fair cordin to law, ten for you an ten
for me-not a inch more nor less for
neither one of u.s."
''But you took the west end-the heid
and medder-and the gravelly hillside
and the rocks up between that and Tas-
colts place was 'lotted TO me, said
Selma, half bodily, half timidly-for,
while her spirit rebelled against the in
Justice, she was not accustomed to thus
brave her stepmother and her sister.
Better not worry, Sehuy," said Mrs.
sandridge, composedly. "Sally had the
right to first pick, beca'se she's the old
est. and by reason of my bein' the child
of Uncle Ben's brother an your father
the child of his youngest brother. All
that stan's to reason an to law, so don't
let's hear no more about it."
''Ef you set sech small store by your
share of the land, said Sally, sneering-
". chow comes it you an Buck Tascott
want to get married and settle down on
itT
because it's all we've got," replied
Selma, with sigh, "sn' we're willin'
to do the bes' We kin with il"
"Don't you forget TOpknot," said
Mrs. Sandridge, pushing away with her
foot speckled pullet which was peck
ing among the potato peelings. 81
thought you counted on maxim a for
tune out o that critter."
Selma stopped down and stroked the
glossy back of Topknot, who knew bet
ter than to let any one but her mistress
touch her.
"she's brought me FIVE dollars
s'ready," she said. "And over at
Rocky Pint she'll have room enough and
sand and gravel enough for all she
needs"
No one answered. Sally forced a
laugh, while something like a little
shade Of disquiet passed over her moth
er's face. Selma took the WATERFALL
from the shelf outside the door, and
started for the spring, TOpknot, as
usual, following ner.
The fowl, when a mere "spriDg
chicken" had either escaped or been
lost from some market cart on the road,
where Buck Tascott had found
her at daybreak half-frozen, and
in passing the sandridges had given her
to Selma.
Topknos had since rewarded her
young MISTRESS pettiDg with many egg,
which went duly to market with the
saudridges' scanty ''garden stuH"-for,
though she would have preferred to have
Topknot hatch her own eggs, Sally
claimed that chicken-ra raising was her
privilege, and her mother objected to
having too many fowls on her place.

II You Had Friend

about to visit some section of country where
malarial disease. either in the form of chills
and fever or bilious remittent was particu-
larly rife, what would be about the best ad-
vice you could give him? We will tell you
Ito carry along, or procure oil arriving, that
potent medicinal safeguard, Hostetter's
Stomach Btters, known throughout malaria
plagued regions here and In other countries
as the surest means of disarming the mias-
matte scourge, and robbing 1t of its fell de-
structive influence. Not only does 1t fortify
the system by increasing its stamina. but
overcomes irregularity of dige tion, the
liver and the bowels, and counteracts the
the unfavorable affects of Over-exertion,
bodily and mental exposure in rough wealth
er. or occupation too sedentary or laborous,
loss of appetite and excessive nervousness.
The functions OF alimentatiOn, bilious Sc
cretion and sleep have In 1t a most powerful
aud reliable auxiliary.
