One of the most pathetic incidents to be
read in dog biography is given by Dr. Dio
Lewis in his Life" He was travelling in
the west and came to ranch, the owner of
which showed him shepherd dog which he
said be would not sell for $500. She had at
that time four young puppies. While they
were admiring the little mother and her
babies on the night of their arrival, the
assistant herder came in to say that there
were more than twenty sheep missing.
Two male dogs, both larger than the lit
tie mother, we're standing about, but the
herder said neither Tom nor Dick would
find them; Flora must 60 1t was urged
by the assistant that her foot was sore,
that she had been hard at work all day,
was nearly worn out and must give her
puppies their supper The master insisted
that she must 90.
The sun was setting and there was no
time to lose. Flora was called and told to
hunt for lost sheep, while her master
pointed to the great forest through the
edge of which they had just passed. She
raised her head, but seemed very loath to
leave her babies. The master called sharp

Let our stewards be ready for the
second quarterly meeting. Make
your best efforts. Now is the time.
Our pastors with few exceptions have
received but little on their
salaries up to date. Their ex-
pensps through the winter are
heavy. Their embarrassment will
be great unless the stewards act
promptly and faithfully. Brethren,
please see that your pastors and their
families have the support to which
they are entitled under the gospel.
even so hath the Lord ordained that
they which preach the gospel should
live of the gospel Present the
claims of the church for the support
Of the ministry to all the members
and urge them to make liberal Offer
ings now, so as to meet the present
emergencies of the pastors. Our
people will meet these claims when
they are rightly presented. Much
depends on the wisdom, fidelity and
activity of our stewards.
Let our pastors put forth earnest
and vigorous efforts to raise the col
lections ordered by the annual con
ference. These collections are i'm
portant Now is the time to raise
them. Brethren, we must not rest
until these sacred claims of the
church shall have been paid IN full.
Present them to every member OF
the church. Turn on the light.
These claims are not burden to
Christian people when they rightly
understand them. Good people give
to these sacred claims literally and
cheerfully. God loves the cheerful
giver HERsCHEL L REAMs.

He Knew All About 1t.

1t was years before the contract labor
law went into effect that a gentleman liv
ing in Rensselaer, county imported large
number of raw lrishmen to work, some in
his factory nd some on his farm.
When the company arrived the gentle
man, being exceedingly democratic, and
having keen enjoyment of native Irish
wit, invited number of his friends tc
meet his importation at a farm festival,
The Irishmen furnished much amuse
ment 1t was toward the close of the sum
mer, and a few late watermelons remained
on the vines. These were novelty to the
sons of the Emerald Isle; they enjoyed
them hugely.
''Now," said the gentleman, "here is an
other variety of melon" At the same
time his farm hands hewed open n dozer
half ripened pumpkins, The lrishmen fell
to and with wry faces devoured the hard
and tasteless pulp.
"What do you think of them?" inquired
the gentleman,
"Shure," replied the most loquacous
who had eaten much of the pumpkins
they're not so sappy as the Others"
The gentleman and dis American friends
laughed heartily at the answer.

gentleman. "Yom'll have to know pump

1t is not generally known that the bell
boys at the first class hotels make more
money than mechanics, while the earnings
of some of them will far exceed those of
many professional men. The pay is small,
seldom amounting to over twenty or
twenty-five dollars month and board,
but the tips are what count. There is ore
bellboy, or rather bellman for he is over
thirty years of age, who has been at the
Fifth Avenue hotel for years. He says
himself that his income is a good 500 a
month, in addition to which he gets his
meals at the hotel.
"a bellboy, to be successful, has to re-
member several things" remarked this
party the other night. For one thing, he
needs to be polite and respectful, but never
familiar. Further than that, he must be
careful in his dress. A slovenly or poorly
dressed bellboy will disgust the fastidious
patrons of the house, who are our chief
standbys. On the other hand, it does not
do to be too stylishly dressed, as then the
CUES will imagine that the boy is so well
fixed that he would scorn to receive tip.
Attention to these two rules will generally
bring success to bright bellboy. New
York Letter.

interested in the organization of the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution, and con-
sented to serve as the first president. Al
though she did not attempt much of the
actual work of her place, she gave it her
warm co operation.
Broke Down at a Reception.
In March last she was far from well, but
Is she had managed TO go through the
official round of entertainments without
breaking down she herself thought her In
disposition only temporary. Mrs. Mckee
and Mrs. Russell Harrison had planned to
give grand lawn party on the White
House grounds after Easter. Mrs. Harri-
rison was enthusiastically in favor of it.
She continued to hold weekly receptions
for her friends at 5 o'clock in the Blue room.
1t was at one of these informal little after
moons, early in April, that Mrs. Harrison
felt the beginning of her illness. She asked
her guests to excuse her, leaving Mrs. Nc
kee to do the honors.
Never a Well Women Since.
From that day Mrs. Harrison never was
q well women. She rallied in May some
what and then was taken that unfort-
unate trip down the Chesapeake bay when
the government steamer on which she was
the Jessamine-was caught in north
east storm, and Mrs Harrison suffered
severely. Those who saw her leave the
White House that day, almost carried in
the presidents arms, had grave doubts Of
her recovery. But from that on her disease
seemed to progress rapidly. When she was
brought back from Fortress Monroe the true
character of her disease became apparent
to her physician and her intimate friends,
though it was carefully concealed from the
public, and she was ordered to Loon Lake
in the hope that the revivifying influences
of the pine-laden air might arrest the prog
ress of the pulmonary trouble which the
racking cough. night sweats. and wasting
strength only too plainly indicated. 1t is
too recent to need recapitulation how these
hopes proved delusive, and at her own re-
quest she was carried back to her cheerful
rooms at the White House, there, it seems,
to die
