You naughty dlSobedient child, to

that thin nightgown on, too; it'll be a
wonder if you don't catch your death

don't worry the gentleman any more. :"
but nanny, dear, You said he was
cross, but he isn't one bit, and he
asked me to kiss him, and he called me
his little Jenny What did he mean?"
''His little girl was called Jenny, my
pet, and | fancy the poor old gentle
man thought she had come back to
him when he woke up suddenly and
saw you. Poor old man." she went on,
more to herself than to the child, "his
mind has been giving way this
long time past. shouldn't wonder if
it went altogether
"Mammy, may Dandy-boy and me go
and sit with him sometimes if we're
good?'
Eyes, my pet, if you're a good girl
now and go to bed and get some sleep
you shall" With which she tucked up
the child in her little cot and left her
to sleep off any i'll effects of her long
nights vigil.
Good morning, Mrs. Dawson, and
how is my patient this morning?"
Nicely, sir, thank you, | think"
answered Mrs. Dawson. He really
don't seem like the same man; he used
always to be grumbling from morning
till night. Now he seems quite happy
so long as my little girl sits with him
now and again. It's very strange
thing" she went on; ''he's got the idea
that she is the child he lost many years
ago. You may have heard, sir, as how
his wife and child We're drowned on
their way home to England from India
Master was in the army, you know
sir, and of course he couldn't leave
that awful climate, but he sent nj,
young wife and little girl home, and
the ship went down. They say master
was never the same again; he got sc
bitter like, wouldn't take any Interest
in anything, and shut himself up il
this lonesome old house, without any
servants, saving me and my husband
when to do justice to the place thers
ought to be dozen servants at least.
Poor old fellow" answered the doc
tor, disregarding the latter part of he
speech. His delusion makes him in
finitely happier, and although hi
mind wanders he is no longer tn,
object of pity he was, for now he tell
me that he is perfectly happy and con
tented since Jenny kissed him"
Very pretty it was to see the child
with wisdom far beyond her years
playing the part assigned to her b.
the old mans happy delusion.

Frost Makes Sugar.

The influence of frost in changing the chemical character of fruits and vegetables has attracted no great att tention, but is just now being made a subject of scientific investigation. 1t has long been known that in some mysterious way frost is an element in the successful production of maple sugar. Observant cooks know that potatoes lightly frOzen-not enough to totally destroy them havea sweet ness wholly foreign to those which have been wholly secure from frost. Those who have had experience with persimmons we'll know how astrin- gent they are before frosted and how sweet and delicious they are after the first frost. A new fact has recently been added Tn connection with the famous canaigre roots of the north of Mexico, which are found to con- tain SO much tannin as to threaten to drive tree barks wholly out of use. After being frozen, however, there is not the slightest trace of tannia left. How frost acts in bringing about the change has not been determined. - Independent.
