Where do you think I went this

They looked straight into each
others eyes in sympathy, and for a
little while were silently thinking.
Yes" he resumed, II walked up
and down past the house where we
lived so long, where Anne was mar
ried, and where so many things hap
pened. Then I went into Pember-
tons grocery to rest"
THAT was a taste of Old-time, to
be sure" said mother"
"Pemberton was there himself.
Dear, dear, how old he looks! He
introduced me to a fne-looking Gus
toner, and what do you think he
said about US ?"
ooh, something about the days
when we were first acqualnt, L

"He told the gentleman that he
served us with goods for forty years,
and never had a chance to send US a
bill"
That was a blessed truth
And l told the gentleman that

"Perhaps not, Jane. But new
fashioned times make long faces and
long bills and short lives. l notice"
Now, this picture ought to be
etched upon young lives-love and
confidence which had walked hand in
hand through fifty-fve years of mar
ried life, with "pay-as-you-go'
principle, which walked while others
rode, to the sure end of comfort in
old age. They had met many riders
coming back on foot, as far as the
poorhouse, or some condition home

of friends.
This is a prime maxim of Bible
lore: "Owe no man anything, but
to love one another" and it should
be accepted as one of the keys to
good housekeeping. The Pacific.

SMALL FRUITS FOR NORTHERN
VERMONT.

After testing a great many kinds
of fruit that were painted in glowing
colors in catalogues and recommend
ed as perfectly hardy, l have found
the following to be the most salts
factory for this section: Raspberries,
the Palmer Blackcap, Thompson's
Early Prolific, Child's Overlooking,
and Cuthbert For blackberries, the
Snyder has no equal here, but the
Lucret1a dewberry does well. Out
OF dozen different currants, Fay's
Prolific is the largest and most pro-
ductive. The much-advertised Gran
dali currant does not bear. Child's
Japanese wineberry winterkills to
sian fruits, cherries, apricots and
plums, as well as apples and pears,
are coming into great favor by rea-
son of their hardness, productive
ness and freedom from disease.
Strawberries grow here to per-
fiction. The Crescent, Shapeless
and Downing are standbys, but are
being supplanted by Warheld Haver-
land, and Parker Earle. Among the
newer varieties Van Deman, Leader,
and Lovett do we'll and evidently
have q future Every farm should
have a half-acre of good land de-
voted to small fruits. 1t will paw
richly in the health and pleasure of
the family, and, rightly managed,
it will net the farmer more hard
dollars than any acre on his farm.

MEN WHO HAVE DIED IN HARNESS.

Literary men, as a rule die nobly.
They seem to meet death with philo-
sophical quietude, as did the great
Victor Hugo, not long ago. Ros-
seau. it is said, when dying, ordered
his attendants to place him before the
window, that he might once more
behold the setting sun and take his
farewell Of earth. Petrarch, was
found dead III his library, with his
head upon a book. We are told that
that book was 2 Bible. Bartholemy
was reading Horace, we are informed,
when, his hand becoming cold, he
dropped the book, his head inclined
to one side, and he seemed only to
sleep. His nephew, however, discOv-
cred that he was dead. Bayle expir-
ed while correcting the prOOt-sheets
of his dictionary. Waller died repeat
ing some lines of Virgil. Although
taken away in the midst of life"
Keats end did not come so sudden
lv. When near death he was asked
by friend how he felt. Better, my
friend" said he; Il feel the daisies
growing over me-" Disraeh too de-
scribes Sir Thomas Moore's execu-
ton. Sir Thomas says he, did
not forget his love of jest even when
mounting the scaffold." The stout
hearted knight, it appears, disturbed
the oppressive solemnitv of the scene
by exclaiming, Il pray you see me
safe up, and for my coming down
let me shift for myself. - Chicago
