NOTHING IN THE P1PERS.

1t was a well-to-do farmer with a
grown son or two, and they were
thrifty One day not long ago the old
man came into the office of the county
paper and found the editor at his
desk The editor was surprised. He
had known the farmer for twenty
years or more, but he had never seen
him in that place before.
"Good morning. remarked the
farmer rather sheepishly.
"How are you p responded the edi-
tor. Glad to see you. | thought you
might be coming around some day"
Yes and the old mans face grew
rosy red.
whats the news - inquired the
editor.

That's news, amt it - and the farm
err laughed.
"Well, yes yes; very good news"
"How much is it Year,
zone dollar cash, or a dollar and a
half if paid at the end of the year"
The farmer took out his pocket
book
Give me five dollars WORTH" he
said. Here's the money"
The editor gave such unmistakable
evidence of surprise and curiosity
that the farmer felt called on to ex
plain.
II guess he said, II ought to have
done it before. We and the boys
have talked about it, but we thought
there wasn't anything much in the
newspaper anyway, and we thought
we could get more out of a dollar q
year some other way. Not long age
we ran across a man with IL fine plan
to make money. No matter what il
was. We went into it and we are
short now thousand dollars. The
other fellow amt though. One of ou1
neighbors read us all about him in his
paper yesterday. Ifrd begun taking
your paper twenty years ago I'd still
have $50 years to run on that 81 ,00t
we gave up for nothing. Send on
your paper, and when my times up,
let me know. Good day." and he
went out.

| doubt that the infamous Doctor LIE
febvre had constantly administered
poison, instead of medicine, to his
poor patients. And when it was re-
ported that a woman had testified in
| favor of the accused, the tumult reach
ed its climax and there were shouts of
''She is his accomplice Send her to
the guillotine with him" Then there
were interminable disputes, shameful
exhibitions of brutal ignorance and
fiendish cruelty.

Maurice, who had followed her close
ly, pressed to her side AZ she stood
there encircled by the bare, brawny
arms, the cienched fists and appraised
sabres of these bloodthirsty men, but
she restrained him by an almost i'm
perceptible motion of her head. The
threats redoubled. The women's shrill
cries rose fiercely above the drunken
yells of some of the men. The most
frightful of all these women, the same
creature, with child in her arms,
who had kept the crowd in a state of
continual excitement for hours, now
pressed forward and, shaking her fist
in Delphine's face, shrieked, Eyes,
my fine lady, you have got to bleed

said

At these words, the kindest perhaps

heart was touched Tears came to

"Take him. she said, and she held
the baby out to Delphine, who took
him in her arms and walked down the
stairs unframed, smiling in the child's
face, while the crowd, hesitating, sub
dued, taken by surprise, made way
for her to pass. She walked thus
across the court with her innocent
protector and was safe. Outside, the
gate she gave the baby to it's mother.

fell on the child as she handed him

THE GREATEST NATURAL BRIDGE

You all know of the Natural bridge
in Virginia, and perhaps have heard
how the first President of the United
States, in the athletic vigor of his
youth, climbed up and carved his
name high on its cliff. A very beauti-
full and picturesque spot it is, too !;
but many of them would not begin to
make one of the Natural bridges in
the western edge of the Tonton basin,
Arizona, in the same general region
as Montezuma's well and castle, but
it is even less known.
The Natural bridge of Pine creek,
Arizona, is to the worlds natural
bridges what the Grand canyon of the
Colorado is to the worlds chasms-
the greatest, the grandest, the most
bewildering. 1t is truly entitled to
rank with the great natural wonders
of the earth-as the Natural bridge in
Virginia is not. No photograph can
give more than hint of its majesty ;
no combination of photographs more
than hint at it.

A maiden lady once had fine talk

aches, she often put him in the htch-

Polly soon learned this, and when

This shocked the delicate little lady.
One day she met her rector, and. after

Il CRADLE SONG.
Hush, my dear, lie still and slumber;
Holy angels guard thy bed,
Heavenly blessings without number
Gently falling on thy head.
Sleep, my babe; thy food and raiment
House and home, thy friends provide:
And, without thy care or payment,
All thy wants are we'll supplied.
How much better thou'rt attended
Than the Son OF God could be,
When from heaven he descended
And became Il child linC thee!
Soft and easy is thy cradle:
Coarse and hard thy Saviour lay
When his birthplace was Il stable
And his softest bed was hay.
See the kinder shepherds round him,
Telling wonders from the sky!
There they sought Him, there they founC
Him,
With his Virgin mother by. ..
May'st thou live to know and fear Him,
Trust and love him all thy days:
Then go dwell forever near him,
See his face and sing his praise!

EVERYTHING COMES FROM GOD.

When we thank God for what he is
to us in the secret chambers of our
own being, we ought also to thank
him for what he is to us in others.
Every noble life which we see or of
which We read, every holy companion
ship, every gallant deed wrought with
in our sight, every influence that comes
to us from others lives is no less
gift from God on high than if it had
been designed for us alone.
