OF n railroad smash-up. His widow,
capable soul that sho was, felt more
keenly the financial smHsh-up than the
other one, that had forced her into
unbecoming mourning attire, and
when, after n sitting out of assets and
liabilities, she found herself with less
than $1,000 to call her own, she de-
termined to put pride in her pocket
and go back TO the little home on the
edge of the prairie, from which she
had walked proudly forth bride
some twenty years before.
When the letter announcing Mrs.
Muggins's intention of taking up her
abode with them reached the two
brothers it created n distinctly disa-
greeable sensation. Henry and james
were "sot in their ways" as the
reighbors would have told you, and
the thought of breaking up the regu-
lar routine of their existence, even for
the sake of their only sister, was Il
bitter pill for the two old bachelors to
swallow.
"Thanll goodness, she amt got no
children, exploded Henry, rs he
tipped his chair still farther back al
ter having reflled his pipe for it's final
duty, Just so many pipes being part
OF the regulation evening formula.
Eyes, we couldn't abide children, no
how, . echoed James, pulling off his
great boots and tossing before the
blaze pair of decidedly ample feet in
woefully holey gray socks.
The light OF these foot coverings
evidently furnished Henry with food
for reflection, for after Il few minutes
silent putting he remarked: ''F'raps it
wouldn't be such bad idec after all.
Seems if we kinder need IL woman TO
look after us. Phoebe Jones is all very
well as long as the cookin' goes, but
there's other things-looka Mt yer socks
fer instance. Looks as ii they'd been
chawed, an mines jest ez bad. l kin

'Im lraid it WILL" responded
Henry. ''but then she's orr blood re-.

Humr.,ag Birds and Flowers.

1t has luHs leen known that insects
assist plants ~ carrying the fertilizing
pollen from flower TO flower, but the
fact has only recently been prominently
brought forward that humming birds
are just as effective distributors of pol
len as insects are.
1t has been shown that these little
birds, which are as fond as bees Of the
honey of flowers, carry the pollen grains
in great quantity, not only on their
feathers, but ON their long bills also. In
deed, SO well suited is the humming
bird to do this work of distribution,
without any intention of its own, that
the question has been raised whether it
may not be the most benetcent Of all
the unconscious friends that the flowers
have i'll the animal world. Youth 5
