Mamma, wish could get to school
without passing that Charlie Hadding-
tons house, or else / wish | could make
him behave"
Mrs. Gordon looked down into the
troubled little face Joe raised to hers, and
answered with a smile:
"Well, / think perhaps you could make
him do that. I'd try to, anyway, if l
were you"
why how could /, mamma ?" asked
Joe, wonderingly. "Youa always said you
didn't want me to fight, and he is bigger
than am, too; but maybe | could whip
him. Do you mean that / may try to,
mamma ?"
mo, DEAR" said his mother. IT mean
that think the reason Charlie leases you
so is that he likes to see you lose your
temper, and if you would learn to control
that, he wouldn't find any more fun in
plaguing you, and so would stop it,"
81 wish l wasn't so fiery" Joe said,
thoughtfulIy; land l mean to try hard
to keep my temper today"
In a few minutes Joe was trudging
along the road, his thoughts full of a plan
he had formed the night before to get up
a baseball club among the boys ofhis own
age, like those the older boys and young
men of the village had. 1t was a little
hard to decide just which boys to ask;
and he wanted to see Harry Crane and
Jack Lewis, and talk it over with them
before school.
He vas so busy thinking, that he did
not notice how near he came to the house
where Charlie Haddington lived nordid
he notice a stone which lay on the walk
right before him, but stumbled over it
and fell. As he scrambled to his feet and
tried to brush the dust from his clothes,
he heard a hooking laugh, and then the
words:

Aunt Mabel had the fashion Of drop

grew strong, vigorous plants in young
hearts.

Bertha Of her own heart, as she thought
fully laid away the blue muslin. As little
by little she tried to go over the hours,
there was much she would gladly have
changed if she could.
II wish | had spoken pleasantly to
Ned when he wished me to help him with
his flag. 1t would only have taken me a
minute or two; and he was first sad and
then vexed with my crossness. 1t is too
bad! l left mother to do her baking
alone, and did not even prepare the cher
ries for her in my haste to finish my
dress" A sight of a little Bible, whose
clasp had been closed all day, suggested
still more %reproachful thoughts. mo

Two Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction City,
ILL.,, was told by her doctors she had con-
sumption and that there was no hope
for her, but two bottles OF DR.. Kings
New Discovery completely cured her and
she says it saved her life. Mr.. Thos.
Eggers, 139 Florida ST., San Francisco,
suffered from a dreadful cold, approach
ing consumption, tried without result
everything else then bought one bottle of
DR.. Kings New Discovery and in two
weeks was cured. He is naturally thank
full. 1t is such results, of which these are
samples, that prove the wonderful eff
cacy of this medicine in Coughs and
Colds. Free trial bottles at Flint Bros.

"FINISHED AND FOLDED UP.u

"There, that is finished and folded up,
and l am heartily glad!" said Bertha, as
she took off her little thimble. and laid
on the table a pretty blue muslin dress,
on which she had been busy for several
days.
us it well done, too ?" asked practical
Aunt Mabel,
Pretty we'll done for me, auntie;
mother says | improve in dressmaking."
That is encouraging. Now, Bertha,
do you know that something else of
yours is finished and folded up this even
ing?"
"What else can it be? This is the only
piece of work have had to do this week,
unless it is that tidy. | do not expect to
see the end of that Tor six weeks"
Still YOU have finished and folded up
something more important than your
tidy, or your dress even-something
which will not be untolded again for ages,
perhaps; and yet you will see it again
with every line and fold. Your days
history is done and gone from your keep

He brushed away vigorously for amin.

question excited his curiosity, so he ans.
wered.
"'Taint likely. What nine"
"Some of us fellows are going to have
a baseball nine" said Joe. Would you
like to belong to it? If you would, I'll
put your name down Tor It,.
Charlie swung himself down from his
seat, and thetwo boys walked on together
toward the schoolhouse, talking of the
new project in a very friendly way.
They had not been intimate, and never
PLAYED together except at the school re-
cess in ONE game in which all the boys
joined for when the H~addington's had
moved into town about a year before,
and Charlie appeared at school withrag-
ged clothes and a somewhat rough man.
ner, he had not seemed a very desirable
companion to Joe Gordon and the we'll
dressed, carefully taught boys he asso
ciated with.
Charlie had noticed this; but he was a
bright boy, and not a bad one, and he
was fully determined not to be ragged al
ways, and to make himself, as he ex-
pressed it, "as good as anybody" He
was pleased, therefore, with Joe's propo.
sal; but he knew that he had not de-
served it from him, and so, Just before
they reached the schoolhouse, he said:
Joe what made you choose me? You
are the one that's gettitg this thing up,
and you could have found enough other
boys. You needn't have asked me at all,
when I've plagued you so much"
And Joe answered:
"Well, | suppose you did it for the fun
of seeing MI flare up; bnt l mean to
break myself of that, and l wanted to
show you that | didn't bear any grudge."
"Well, I'm not going to do it any more,

word.
So Joe gained a double victory that

schoolmate, and a still greater one over
his own quick temper,-[Selected.
