through orders from trading statesmen. Cot
tons were in moderate request Printed
fabrics and prints in good demand. Dry

No other city in the Union possesses
so many points of historic interest as
Philadelphia, and there is hardly
street in the old city which has not its
association with some of the great men
and women of days gone by. As dis
lance leads enchantment to the view,
SO other cities look with reverence up
on what many natives of the Quaker
City regard with indifference. Several
cans of earth taken from historic spots
in Philadelphia have been sent to
the colonial danes of San Francisco,
who will plant a tree in soil of the
revolution. The earth was taken from
the yard of the house near Third and
Arch streets, where Betsy Ross made
the first American flag: from BENJAMIN
Franklin's grave, Fifth and Arch
streets; from the graveyard of Christ
church. Second apd Market streets:
from Carpenters hall and Independ-
ence square. and from the ground at
Merton occupied by the old mill which
figured as Tory refuge in revolution

Lincoln's Kindness to Bird,.

Abraham Lincoln was once on jour
ney with some fellow travellers, ant
when they stopped to water their
horses he did not appear. The inquir,
was made of the last man who came
where is Lincoln?" "oh," he replied
when l saw him last he had tw.
young birds which the wind had blow
out Of their nests and he was huntin.
for the nest that he might put then
back in it." When Lincoln came NJ
the party began to laugh at his car,
for the young birds; but he said: !"
could not have slept II / had not re-
stored those little birds 10 their
mother."-Humane Journal
The Canton times. (Canton, Miss.) 1893-1906, 1894-11-16

BACK! asked James Wlnn, the prac
tical man. to his friend, Cyril Creighton
the dreamer.
1.-The Enchanted Princess"
''Humph! Sufficiently idiotic to bt
probable; but why?"
why, for one thing, she is so beau
tiful and charming For another, she
lives in palace with an ogre-her fla
Their, you know-old Cent Per Cent.
Abercrombie, the banker. For third
she is surrounded with pride and dis
dain and Indifference as if through a
spell, and those of the boys who vow
to rescue and hold the real swee tness
within are speedily discounted and re.
main in hopeless captivity"
The two friends entered the house
and passed through the long drawing
room to where young girl was stand
ing. Monica Abercrombie could be
gracious, too. for she knew that the
obligations of hospitality increase
with it's power, and her greeting OF
Winn. the stranger, was marked con-
trast to the carelessness which more
than sufficed for her devotees. If there
was curiosity in her glance, her eyes
were too quick and well trained to be-
tray it. She felt even before she saw
that this tall, stalwart man. swarthy,
impassive, composed, was different in
thought and doing from the young
sters who were so monctonous in their
trimming of the one-striDged harp of
adulation.
Cyril Creighton certainly was ardent:
his hands, his eyes, his expression, his
being glowed with the subtitle fire. As
for his tongue-well, il silence be
golden, it had irretrievably adopted a
silver standard.
''Oh! but Miss Abercrombie," he was
saying, you cannot mean it to leave
town just in the height of the season.
Why, the underpinning will be
knocked from everything, and we shall
all be lot of humpty-dumpti-s."
''Kismet," Monica replied, 1.-THE doc
tor has spoken; the decree, / may say
prescription, has gone forth. Papa
is ordered south to Palmettaville, and
of course must go with him A week
hence we shall be on our way, so I
would advise all the humpty -dumpties
not to get on the wall"
But we are there already, you
know" protested the chorus of youths
"Palmettaville?" continued Cyril
why. VIM. that's where you are
bound for, isn't it? Didn't you say
your great Southwest railway had just
about reached that point7"
The Canton times. (Canton, Miss.) 1893-1906, 1894-11-16

ly was thoughtful of him to have
tramped back to the cars, as he must
have done; but why, oh, why, did he
smile SO hatefully, and why did he
say: II knew you would be sure to
want it?" What business had he with
any such knowledge, and what right
had he to apply it to her?
Thenceforward, and until Palmetto
vile was at length eventually reached,
the princess SO enwrapped herself
with dignity that even the ogre was
constrained to recommend sundry pro-
prietary tonics in which he had
mountainous faith.
VIM had disappeared within the
adjacent hills and morasses, having
first devoutly, but most discourteous-
ly, thanked his stars for the privilege,
and the girl grew so tired of her own
company that she missed him, which
made her still more dissatisfied. He
had been SO brusque, SO abrupt. SO
strange, that she could not keep from
thinking of him, just as one flash Of
an unfamiliar scene may cling to the
memory. After little she came to
refecting now nice he would be if
only he were entirely different, and
then anger succeeded inquietude.
One afternoon Monica was riding
through a wooded land, far distant
from the hotel, far distant, for the
winding way had been alluring, with
it's shaded solitude; the festooned
verdure sweeping her cheeks had been
gracious in its touch, and the twitter
of birds and the ripple of springs had
seemed voices of indefinite yet friend
ly co nsolation. A long, level stretch
lay before her, leading to an ascent at
the base of which was brook 1t in
vited dash with clatter over the
rustic bridge and a plunge half way
