THE OLD APPLE TREE.

And the humble scenes that loved SO
WELL
The rambling attic, with corners dim,
And the air Of secrets and Don't yo,,
tellw +,
The crooked stairs with the little nook,
The place where we.played at Ego to see. -
The long, long path to the garden gate.
And. better than all, the apple tree.
That dear old friend, in whose kindly lap
nursed my dollies with tender pride,
And conned my lessons and read my tales.
And in lieu Of a pony played 'go ride.
And cen In childish sorrow and pain
fled to it's tender, soothing care,
And sobbed my woe on it's tender breast,
The griefs that were just too hard to
bear"
Perhaps my memory plays me false
And heightens the charms that it really
had,
But never since have known a time
When life has looked so supremacy glad
And the dear old apples though hard and
green
And full of knots as a fruit could be,
And small and puny, are far more dear
Than the famous apples Of gold to me.

Lincoln. while at Washington It came
under my notice in the post office de-

a small Ohio town. In the changes
that took place the Office was, ct,nsoli-
dated with Salem, and the man twice
wanted for president was Tor once not
wanted Cor postmaster. Years after it
was discovered that no Element had
reached Washington of the affairs OF
that little post office. \ visit was made
to Mr.. Lincoln. and the case stated,
when the always great man rose from
his desk and walked over 10 chest of
drawers and took out bundle Of pa

kitchen closed the door and began spy
ing upon him through the blinds of the
window. He went Il few PAGES as if in
tending to devour his prey, and then
stopped, placed his chicken on the
ground, and thought deeply for long
time. Several times he looked at the
kitchen door with his false and treach-
erous eye. Then, giving up all attempts
to seek an explanation satisfactory to
his mind, he contented himself with the
fact that he had the chicken, picked it
up and departed. AS he disappeared
in the distance could see that his some
times timid tail, which had hesitated
throughout our entire conversation,
had again become bold and firm.
2onto's tail said: "Bah! l have bota
chickens. Nobody saw me take the
first one. Hurrah!'
l stealthily followed him from afar,
and surprised him in the act of hastily
scratching a hole in the ground with
his powerful forepaws. The chicken
that had given him was lying on the
ground, and in the hole which he was
digging lay the other chicken. was
broken-hearted. My friend Ponto re-
tanned the instincts of his remote an
cestors, the foxes and the wolves, and
buried his provisions. But, alas! being
a domesticated animal, and having be-
come the companion of mankind, he had
learned to lie.
Under the eyes of the treacherous
and shamed-faced Ponto, | made up u
little package of the longer feathers OF
the two chickens, and deposited this
little feather buster on my working
table. Whenever, thereafter was en-
gagged at work and Ponto came to me
bringing his ball, and said, with light
and easy air: Come, come! Lay aside
that rubbish and let us play ball. I
would invariably lift the little feather
buster. Then Ponto would drop his
treacherous head. His tail would stink
between his legs and adhere to his quiv-
ering belly, while the ball would fall
from his nerveless jaws. As he looked
at me he would say: rs it possible that
you are SO ruthless, SO unforgiving?
Do you never pardon?''
Weeks passed, and l had not yet par
eoned Ponto. But he was interchangeable
in his attempts to win me over. So one
morning, when he came to me again,
and when l seized the little feather
buster and poor Ponto was about to
withdraw, said to him:
'Look, Ponto,'' quoth {, "look upon
this for the last time. Thus perishes
the only token of your fault and
hurled the feather buster into the fire.
Ponto carefully watched the feather
buster burn. Then, without any hys-
teric manifestations of joy, without
leaps or skips, but nobly, simply, with
dignity, he came and protfered his paw.
The crime was forgotten. We were
friends again.
Ponto was glad that he had been for
given. But he was not nearly so glad as
i that had forgiven him.-Argonaut,
from the French.

Pretensions az KING Mene,ik.

s
The missionary Flad, a German be-
longing to Wurtemburg, writing from
Abyssinia, says that one Goban Desta,
who was educated near Basic, and has
been a colporteur of the English Bible
society, working in Harrar and Shoa,
was taken and put III chains merely be-
cause he wrote reports TO Europe.
King Menelik seemed determined to
suppress everyone who might report his
preparations against the Italians. The
king is surrounded, says Mr.. 5Flad, by
French and Russian con, tiers and
boasts beforehand Of his victory over
the ItaIlans, and how he means to set
forth from the Tigre to Jerusalem to
free the holy city. He needs the help
of Russia, and promises rich booty to
his soldiers. He, thinks he will do all
this as easily as he carried out a raid
lately against the Gailas, ifilling the
men and making slaves Of the women
and children. He 'lecEires he is a. di-
rect descendant of David and Solomon.
