An Automatic Whip.

A Meriden, Conn, man has rugged an
ingenious device to break one of his horses
of the habit of paving and keeping the
men who sleep in the stable awake at
night. He has placed a movable board on
the door of the stall in such a position
that when the horse strikes out with his
foot he moves the board. From this board
runs rod that passes out over the horse,
and to the end of the rod is fastened a
whip. Every time the board is moved the
whip desceEds upon the horses back. After
one or two disturbances the animal settled
down and kept still.

Faine's celery compound increases the appetite
by giving healthy tone to the stomach; Il makes
that the entire system gets completely
nTlrished. 1t regulates the bowels and the kid
neys and encourages them to get rid of harmful
end poisonous matter that the sluggish system has
allowed to lodge in the blood, thus causing rheu-
matsm and kindred disorders.
You cannot cure rheumatism by outward applca-
tions. The disease is due to internal disorder and
must be constitutionally attacked and got rid of.
Paine's celery compound has done for thousands
of other people exactly what it did for Mr.. Lewis
They were sufferers he was, and the compound
has made them WELL
The warmest praises of Paines celery compound
are from men and women of high character and
keen intelligence. They know they doing
work of humanity and mercy in commencing to all

Of getting strong and well.

It had been, 1t was Mrs. Robb's own. and
she had burnt 1t most thankfully. There
was only small armful left, but at least
she could have the luxury of a fire. She
had feeling that 1t was her last night at

began to fill the stove as she used to do in
better days

She Looked Out HOpelessIy Across

It was not so dark as 1t had been in her
sad heart. She still sat by the window,
hoping now. in spite of herself, instead of
fearing; and a curious feeling of nearness
and expectancy made her feel not SO much
hght-hearted as light-headed.
Il feel just as if somethn' was goin' to

II.

Some one has said that anniversaries are
days to make other people happy in, but
sometimes when they come they seem to
be full of shadows, and the power of giv7
ing Joy to others; that inalienable right
which ought to tighten the saddest heart,
the most Indifferent sympathy, sometimes
even this seems to be withdrawn.
So poor old Mary Ann Robb sat at her win
dow on the afternoon before Thanksgiving
and felt herself poor and sorrowful indeed
Across the frozen road she looked eastward
over great stretch of cold meadow land
brown and windswept, and crossed by Icy
ditches 1t seemed to her as If in all the
troubles that she had known and carried be-
fore this there had always been some hope
to hold, as If she had never looked poverty
full in the face and seen its cold and ptiless
look before She looked anxiously down the
road, with horrible shrinking and dread at
the thought of being asked, out of pity, to
Join in some Thanksgiving feast. but there
was nobody coming with gifts in hand. Once
she had been full of love for such laws,
whether at home or abroad, but something
had chilled her very heart now, poor old
woman.
Her nearest neighbor had been foremost of
those who wished her to go to the town farm,
and he had said more than once that it was
the only sensible thing. But John Mander
was waiting impatiently to get her tiny
farm into his own hands; he had advanced
some money upon 1t in her extremity, and
pretended that there was still debt. after
he had cleared her wood lot to pay himself
BACK. he would pillow over the graves IN the
field corner and fell the great elms and
waited like spider for his poor prey. He
had often reproached her for being too gen
erous to worthless people in the past and
coming to be charge to others now. oh, If
she could only die in her own house and net
suffer the pain of homelessness and depend
ence,
1t was just at sunset, and as she looked out
hopelessly across the gray fields, there was
q sudden CLEAN of light far away on the low
hills beyond, the clouds opened in the west
and let the sunshine through. One lovely
CLEAN shot swift as an arrow and frightened
q far cold hillside where it fell, and at the
same moment a sudden CLEAN of hope
frightened the winter landscape of her
heart

There was sad heart in the low-storied,
dark little house that stood humbly by the
roadside under some tall elms Small as
her house was. old Mrs. Robb found 1t too
large for herself alone; she only needed the
kitchen and tiny bed room that led out of
1t, and there still remained the best room
and a bed room, with the low garnet over
head.
There had been a time, after she was left
alone. when Mrs. Robb could help those
who were poorer than herself. She kept a
COW, and was strong enough not only to
do a woman's work inside her house, but
almost a mans work outside in her piece of
garden ground. At last sickness and age
had come hand in hand, those two relent-
less enemies of the poor, and together they
had wasted her strength and substance.
She had always been looked up to by her
neighbors as being independent, but now
she was left, lame-footed and lame handed,
with a debt to carry and her bare land, and
the house ill-provisioned to stand the siege
of time
For awhile she managed to get on, but
at last 1t began to be whispered about that
It was no use for anyone to be SO proud;
II was easier for the whole town to care
for her than for a few neighbors, and Mrs.
Robb had better go to the poor house before
winter, and be done with it. At this terrible
suggestion her brave heart seemed to stand
still. The people whom she cared for most
happened to be poor, and she could no
longer go into their households to make
herself of use. The very elms overhead
seemed to say mo" as they groaned in the
late autumn winds, and there was some
thing appealing even to the strange passer-
by in the look of the little gray house. with
Mrs. Robb's pale, worried face at the win
dow.
