An Old Friend.

In series of interviews with members of
the last Congress. 81 out of 43 remarked that
they were readers of The Youths Compan-
ion. For definite and trustworthy informa-
ton on the questions of the day it is really
unique, while the high character of its
stories, the wide fields covered by its special
| articles, and its contributions from The most
famous writers in Europe and America, are
well known.
Its programme for next year seems bright
er than ever. Some of the important stories
are: 1.-THE Deserter," by Harold Frederic;
Tale of the Great Mutiny in India, by
Sara jeanette Duncan; several Romances of
the Sea, by w. Clark Russell; Tales of the
War and of the Frontier in Early Days.
narratives from Darkest Africa, and Archi-
bald Forbes writes of his "Closest Call"
Naval Battles are described by Admirals,
and Military Life by Generals. Then there
are articles on Choosing an Occupation.
Boys who Should Not Go to College, Physi-
cal Training, Recreations of all kinds, and
many other practical subjects.
Another pleasant feature is the charming
picture of young lady of colonial times"
''Sweet Charity" reproduced in color from
painting by Ferris, which is presented to
all subscribers who send their $1.75 for a
new subscription or renewal.

that we lack any of the plain comforts
which, alas! are all can at present pro-
vide-and if ! choose to add luxurious
trife, something associated with the dear
dead days, / will not" he said in clear,
studied voice-'I will not be interfered
with. Now, if you please, my child,
we'll say no more about it. Whenever
you want to talk over household matters
with me, am always at your service
in private"
Nothing more was said, and the bust
was placed near the melodeon. But
Virginia could not bear to look at it,.
Poverty was biting, their needs urgent
and debt abhorrent to her. How many
panels she would have to strain her eyes
over before half of $50 was earned. A
burning mist fell over her sight. She
looked up and met Toms compassion
ate eyes. They counseled her to be pa
tient. All, what did these small briers
matter since he loved her?
There lay her hope, her refuge.

"But you didn't buy any of those love-
ly, useless things?" she interposed in a
whisper. "You didn't, surely, dad? You
know the quarters rent
"Never mind the quarters rent, Vir-
ginia. You always will drag in these
purely private matters before our
guests"
With delicate impatience he moved
to the stove and held out his white
hands to the warmth.
"Where was when you interrupted
me? Ah,' and he took off his glasses,
lightly ficking his coat sleeve with

gem that almost made me give q cry of

listeners with dim smile, and his voice
became retrospective. "How it recalled

In moment Tom had the wrappings
off, and the bust was placed on little
stand. The head and shoulders of O. girl
cleaned whitley in marble. She was
represented laughing with unrestrained
gayety, her eyes half closed from sheer
WEAKNESS of so much mirth, her curling
mouth with its range of little teeth just
showing above the small mask that one
daintily curved hand had pulled down in
a capricious moment.
A lovely thing, indeed, but sadly out
of place in that poor room. 1t seemed
strange to Virginia that her father did
not recognize the singular unfitness.
The girl was laughing at them all!
And to have spent 500 for It'll Oh, it was
wanton, cruel!
"Touch it reverently, Virginia; it be-

FEDERAL JUDGES DENOUNCED.

Gov Stone, of Missouri, Has Been Think.
Ing, and Now Talks
JEFFERSON C1TY, Mo-. March 7.-Since
Friday last. when Judge Phillips. of the
United States court, announced his decision
In the case of the st. Clair county judges,
Gov. Stone has been giving the points OF
tho opioion some close attention. He gave
out to-day a lengthy statement on the sub
jsot. He denies that he is trying to defy
the federal courts. and then says: II pre-
sumo the people of the state could abolish
county courts altogether. is they saw proper
to do SO, without first asking leave of:bond-
holders or federal judges, though | may be
guilty OF melting treason in saying it, The
federal court is semi-foreiQn to the state.
Circuit judges are rarely citizens of the
state whose laws they set at defiance; states
have absolutely no control over them. They
have NO special concern or interest in the
Governmsnt. They hold life offices and
draw salaries from the fedora government.
They are in a measure separated from the
states. They belong in peculiar sense to
tho United States. The general govern
ment is magnihed and state govern msnt
dwarfed In their thoughts. They are ant
to force their measures and PURPOSES with
out much regard to local interests or the
rights of the state"
The governor thinks il better to go
back to the old rule which prevailed in the
better days of the republic when the spirit,
as we'll AZ the letter of the constitution,
was observed and whom state soyereiRnty-
sovereign within It's proper sphere-wss
something more than shallow pretenss or
q mocking dream. Do that aud these hate
fnl and msnacing conflicts in Jurisdiction
will disappear"
