Tho Parsons Teeth.

There is story of a clergyman who
had taken temporary duty for friend,
and who had the ill-luck to injure his
false teeth during the week. The plate
was sent to the dentists for repairs, a
faithful assurance being given that it
should be duly returned by Sundays
post; but the dentist or the post proved
faithless. With the assistance of the
clerk the clergyman managed to stumble
through the prayers, but felt it would
be useless to attempt to preach. He
therefore instructed the clerk to make
some excuse for him and dismiss the
congregation" But his feelings can be
better imagined than described when,
in the seclusion of the vestry, he over
heard the clerk, in impressive tones,
thus deliver the excuse" Parsons

Educated BabOOnS.

The Hottentots say that balloons can
talk, only they will not for fear they
should be made to work, and there GER
tainly is but little work to be got out
of those cunning hands. Nevertheless
we read of some balloons who have been
taught to do useful work. There was
an obituary notice a year or more ago
in one of the Cape papers of one Of
these trained balloons, well known in
the colony, who used to act as signal
man on the railway, in place of his
master, who was lame. The story was
doubted by the English papers, which
copied it; but we have met with many
people who had seen the animal at his
work. Mrs. Carey Hobson, too, in one
of her pleasant little ''South African
Stories," tells of a baboon which had
come under her notice, which had been
taught to ride after a Dutch Boer as
groom, and to dismount and hold the
horse by sitting on the bride when his
master went into house; and we have
seen a troupe of monkeys of various
kinds taught to do great many
curious tricks, says Chambers Jour
nal; but in these, again, they have
been rivaled by dogs.-Drake's Maya

was right"
'Yo' didn't go huntin' me for three
years to tell me-a so'th'n girl-that
so'th'n men know how to fight, did yo',
co'nnle?" returned the young lady with
the slightest lifting of her head and
dropping of her blue-veined lids in q
divine hauteur. ''They were always
ready enough for that, even among
themselves. 1t was much easier for
those pooah boys to fight thing out
than think it out, or work it out. The
folks in the moth learned to do all
three; that's where you got the grip on
us. Yo' look surprised, connie"
81 didn't expect you would look at it
quite in-in-that way" said Court
land, awkwardly.
81 am sorry disappointed yo' after
yo'd taken such heap O. trouble" re-
turned the young lady, with puzzling
assumption of humility as she rose and
smoothed out her skirts, shut I didn't
know exactly what yo' might be ex-

stopped and adjusted straying tendril
of her hair with sharp corner of the
dead mans letter. But 1 thank yo' all
the same, CO nnle. It was real good in
yo' to think of toting these things over
here" And she held out her hand
frankly.
CORTLAND took it with the sickening
consciousness that for the last five
minutes he had been an unconscionable
ass. He could not prolong the interview,
after she had SO significantly risen. If
he had only taken his leave and kept the
letter and looked for later tisit-per-
haps when they were older friends! It
was too late now. He bent over her hand
for moment, again thanked her for
her courtesy, and withdrew. A moment
later she heard the receding beat of his
horses hoofs on the road.
She opened the drawer of q brass
handled cabinet and after moments
critical survey of her picture in the
dead mans locket, tossed it and the let
ter in the recesses of the drawer. Then
she stopped, removed her little slipper
from her foot, looked at it thoughtfully
and called: "Sophy!'

one was there. He fingered few mo-
ments, slight chagrin beginning to
mingle with his uneasiness- might
have been on the lookout for him-she
or Sophy must have seen him return
ing. He would ring for Sophy and
leave his thanks and regrets for her
| mistress. He looked for bell, touched
it, but, on being confronted with Sophy,
changed his mind and asked to see Miss
Dows. In the interval between her de-
parture and the appearance of Miss
Sally he resolved to do the very thing
which he had dismissed from his
thought but an hour before as ill-timed
and doubtful. He had the photograph
and letter in his pocket; he would make
them his excuse for personally taking
leave of her!
She entered with her fair eyebrows
lifted in pretty surprise.
81 declare to goodness, 1 thought yo'd
ridden over to the red barn and gone
home from there. l got through my
work on the vines earlier than I
thought-oneo of Judge Carrots nephews
dropped in in time to help me with the
last row. Yo' needn't have troubled
yo'self to send up for me for mere COM
pany manners, but Sophy says 20
looked sort of anxious and particular
when yo' asked for me-soI suppose yo'
want to see me for something"
Mentally objurgating Sophy, and
with an unpleasant impression in his
mind of the unknown neighbor who had
been helping Miss Sally in his place, he
nevertheless tried to collect himself gal
lantly.
81 don't know what my expression
conveyed to Sophy," he said, with
smile, ''but trust that what have to
tell you may be interesting enough to
make you forget my second intrusion"
He paused. and, still smiling, continued:
"For more than three years, Miss BOWS.
you have more or less occupied my
thoughts; and, although we have actual
~ met to-day only for the first time,
have during that time carried your i'm
age with me constantly. Even this
meeting, which was only the result of
an accident, l had been seeking for
three years. find you here under your
own peaceful vine and fig tree, and yet
three years ago you came to me out OF
the thunder cloud of battle"
My good gracious said Miss Sally.
She had been clasping her knee with
her linked fingers, and now leaned back
ward with affected CONSERVATION, but
an expression of intense amusement in
her bright eyes. CORTLAND saw the
mistake of his tone but it was too late
to change it now. He handed her the
locket and the letter, and briefly, and
perhaps little more seriously, recount
ed the incident that had put him in pos
session of them. But he entirely sup
pressed the more dramatic and CHASTITY
details and his own superstitious and
strange prepossession towards her.
Miss Sally took the articles without a
tremor or the least deepening or paling

whose old-time politeness had become
slightly affected, and whose old beliefs
had given way to a half cynical ac-
ceptance of new facts. Mr.. Drummond,
delighted with the farm and its man
agement, was no less fascinated by
Miss Sally, while CORTLAND was now
discreet enough to divide his attention
between her and her aunt, with the re-
suit that he was far from participating
in Champney's Conviction of Miss
Miranda's unimportance. To the freed
men she still represented the old i'm
placable task-mistress, and 1t was
evident that they superstitiously
believed that she still retained a
vague power of overriding the Fifteenth
amendment at her pleasure, and was
only to be restrained by the mediation
of the good-humored and sensible Miss
Sally. CORTLAND was quick to see the
value of this influence in the transition
state of the freedmen and pointed it
out to his principal. Drummonds
previous doubts and scepticism, already
weakened by Miss Sally's destinations,
vanished entirely at this prospect of
benefcially utilizing these lingering
evils of slavery. He was convinced-he
was even enthusiastic. The foreign in
vestors were men to be bought out, the
estate improved and enlarged by the
company and the fair owners retained
in the management and control. Like
most prejudiced men, Drummond's con-
version, was sudden and extreme, and
being practical man was at once acted
upon. At a second and third interview
the preliminaries were arranged, and
In three weeks from Courtland's first
visit the Bows plantation and part Of
Maj. Reeds were merged in the
''Drummond syndicate" and placed be-
yond financial uncertainty. CORTLAND
remained to represent the company as
superintendent at Redlands, and with
the transfer of the English invest
ments, Champney retired. as he had
suggested, to a smaller venture of his
own, on plantation few miles dis
tant which the company had been un-
able to secure.
During this interval CORTLAND had
frequent interviews with Miss Sally,
and easy and unrestrained access to her
presence. He had never again erred on
the side Of romance or emotion: he had
never again referred to the infelix let
ter and photograph, and, without being
obliged to confine himself stri.tly to
business affairs, he had maintained an
even. quiet, neighborly intercourse with
her. Much of this was the result of his
own self-control and soldierly training,
and gave little indication of the deeper
feeling that he was conscious lay be-
meath it At times he caught the young
girls eyes fixed upon him with mis-
chievous curiosity. A strange thrill
went through him; there are few situa-
tions so subtle and dangerous as the ac-
cidental condolences and understand
ings of two young people Of opposite
sex. even though the question of any
sentimental inclination be still in abey-
ance. CORTLAND knew that Miss Sally
remembered the too serious attitude he
had taken towards her past. She might
laugh at It. and even resent it-but she
