What Young Lady Thought of the New

 It was once the good fortune of Harper's Bazar writer to read, in the island of Fayal, letter just written by young lady of Portuguese-E English birth who had been reading the New Testament for the first time. It was worth while to see such letter, for many persons must have felt, first or last, with Thoreau, that it would be delightful thing for anyone to encoun- ter those wonderful narratives as a fresh discovery, in maturer years, apart from all the too familiar associa- tions of Sunday school and sermon Such, as any rate, was this young lady's experience, and her statement c' the result was at least little astc ,., ing She wrote, in her hal .stsso;al s,.

FAlTHFULNEss OF A DOG.

 Saved the Life of a Seriously Wounded
 Officer.
 Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont, in her story of ''The Guard," body of young men who followed "The Pathfinder" into the civil war and made a brilliant record for their courage and gallantry, tells pathetic story of dumb beast who also was loyal and courageous:
 While theguard-a body of cavalry was drilling one day near St. Louis, a little fox-terrier followed one of the men, Herr Visa, Hungarian officer, going with him to camp. He could not be driven away.
 The men all made pet of him, and named him "the corporal;" but though he was atfable to them all, he made the Hungarian soldier his companion and friend, sleeping at his feet at night, and following him by day.
 When the guard made their memor- able charge at Springfield, Mo-, the Corporal charged with them, keeping beside his masters horse throughout the battle. Herr Visa was wounded, and fell, apparently dead, in thicket. The corps swept past, his horse fled, wild with terror, but the little Corporal nestled close beside him, licking his face and trying to rouse him.
 There the dog remained through the bitter cold night. When morning came he ran to the distant road, and by his frantic barks and cries induced a pass er-by to enter the thicket.
 The man, seeing only cold, stiff body, supposed the soldier to be dead, and would have hurried on; but the Corporal furiously drove him back, and would not be silenced until he saw his master move and speak, when he crouched, dumb and contented, at his feet. -s.rqfe1s5 sEFF:: ssEFFs ta- s= ..zs.-

portant point about creeping plants in
baskets and boxes is to give them plenty
of water during the growing season,
but more sparingly in winter, and to
keep the leaves clean. If the baskets
are small, take them down and water
them outside, but in the case of large
baskets or boxes, tray of some kind
should be placed underneath them to
catch the drippings. These hanging
baskets should be exposed to the sun
two or three hours every day, and if the
surface of the basket between the plants
is covered with moss, it will prevent the
earth from drying up quickly, and the
basket will look prettier.-Orange

ling, come back! Do not go from me!
] love you'll love you!" he was too far
away to hear or heed; and only bird,
perched on u branch far above her
head, saw the girl fling herself down
among the grasses of the May time and
sob as if her heart would break.
1t did not comfort her so very much,
after all, to know that now no gossip
could say she had Jumped at the
chance" of becoming Colin Delorme's
wife.
81 will tell him the truth tonight"
she whispered, when she was calmer.
"He loves me; he will forgive me for my
folly"
But when she reached the house she
was told that Colin Delorme had gone
to the city on urgent business, and
would return the following evening on
the seven o'clock train.
Such long night, such long day
as those were to poor Honor in her mis-
cry of remorse! But at last they were
over, and in few minutes the whistle
which would announce the arrival of
the train at the small station below
would Shrek out on the evening air.
From window of her room she knew
she could see the smoke from the en-
gine mile away, and at one point,
where the track ran like thread across
an open space, somewhat elevated, she
could catch sight of the line of car
riages ere the shrek of the whistle told
that they were about to stop.
The puffs of smoke showed here and
there among the tree tops as she looked
forth; then, like long black serpent,
the train darted around the curve and
sped out on the bridge.
There was swaying of the train, a
sudden crash, which reached her duly
from the distance, and down through
the shattered brickworlx huddled the
engine and three of the carriages at
tached to it-down but few feet, it is
true, but at the bottom was death to
many-perhaps to Colin Delorme.
Honor did not cry out, did not faint,
but sudden fierce strength seemed to
be infused into her slight figure, as she
sprang toward the door and darted
through. Down the corridor, down the
stairs, out at the hall door she ran like
a creature flying for her very life.
In the drive horse and buggy were
standing; his host was to drive to the
station for Colin.
Hatless, cloalSless, with bare arms
and shoulders cleaning from the black
ness of her dinner dress, she sprang

into the vehicle and caught up the
reins.
The servant at the horses head made
way for her with a frightened glance at
her white face and dilated eyes.
She turned the animal and dashed
down the drive, out at the gates, and on
at gallop down the highway.
1t seemed an eternity to her before
she reached the wrecked train, and 9TH
ers were there before her.
Still white as death, still silent, she
drew rein and, leaping out, darted into
the crowd, which was endeavoring to
extricate the crushed and mangled pas
sengers from the debris about them.
One was drawn forth as she reached
the group, and at last her lips unclosed
to give forth a cry Of anguish.
Was that shapeless, bleeding, moan
ing mass, of which she saw nothing to
recognize as human save a blood
stained hand and few tresses of nut
brown hair-was that the man she
loved?
She pushed the men aside frantically,
and was trying to win her way to the
dying man, when hand was laid on
her shoulder and voice that made
her heart thrill said:
Honor, this is no place for you. Go
home, my dearest. Even a mans heart
faints before such horrors as this"
She clung to him with both hands,
trembling, sobbing, laughing-in short,
going nearly mad with ioy.
Colin! my love-my love! You are
safe-uninjured?" she cried, incoher-
emily. 81 feared-I feared You are
safe, Colin, dear Colin!"
"Safe, and blessed beyond measure
to know you care" And he drew one
OF the hands that clung to him to his
lips. 81 was in the smoking car. lam
unhurt, Honor; but many poor fellow
is perhaps dying while l talk to you
Go back, my love, and let me give all
the aid | can; for every man who lies
dying here be sure some woman's heart
will break to-day"
"As mine would have broken had you
died." she whispered, releasing him.
Six months later, when notice of the
marriage of Colin Delorme and Honor
Campbell appeared, Mrs. Gays acquain-
tance of the venomed tongue met and
accosted her,
81 told you that if Colin Delorme pro-
posed to Miss Campbell she would not
be such an imbecile as to refuse him and
let the property be divided, and you see
l was right" she said, exultantly.
And Mrs. Gay could not tell her-for
she did not know-that, owing to her
own idle and ill-natured words, not
property, but two hearts that loved had
been very nearly divided.-St. Louis Re-

Paris Has a Baby Life Saver.

The other day, at the Trocadero, in
Paris, n life-saving medal was awarded
to Eugene Poiret, boy three years old.
One day, when the boy was playing with
his brother, aged two, in the yard of his
home, the latter fell into a tub of water.
Eugene ran to the rescue, but succeeded
only in keeping the baby's head above
water. His loud cries of Mammal"
were not heard, and the little hands
were getting weak. Then he hit upon
the idea of calling "Julie!' the name l,y
which his father called his mother.
This brought the mother upon the
scene, and in another moment she had
both children in her arms.

About week ago at the Holstein
ranch the children captured nest of
three young orioles, and they were
immediately Gagged and hung in tree.
The mother was soon about calling her
young, and in a little while brought
them some worms. She continued feed.
ing them regularly for several days,
without seeming to pay much atten-
ton to persons about.
But on Sunday came the tragic end
ing that demonstrated the theory rela-
tive to birds, She brought them q
sprig of green on Sunday morning and
disappeared. In less than an hour they
all died. The sprig was examined and
proved to be the deadly larkspur, a
weed that will kill full-grown cattle.
The little creatures lay dead in the
cage and slightly foaming at the
mouth, victims of their mothers stern

tapering to point at one end. About
