Wren quite agreed with her. So they
brought straw and strings and built g
house in one of the pockets, making
It as cozy little fat as anyone could
desire. When the wind blew the ole
coat would swing gently and rock Mr.
and Mrs. Wren to sleep.
But chilly weather came and the
farmer wanted his coat. He went tc
take it down and he found the nest

-Rabela;s was the most acute sat

biting sarcasm of the foibles of his
time has never been excelled.

minutes the company, led by two or
three of the older women, was launched
on a sea Of "reminiscences and gen
ealogical discussion, in which Aunt
Hannah and her party were soon lost
sight of.
The men at .the store" had their
say, too, but they were accustomed
to let their women folks" settle mat
ters of etiquette; so the question passed
with joke or two, mostly leveled at
Deacon White, who, balanced on a
bench on the little stoop that ran across
the front of the store, his shoulders
propped against the wall and his hat
pulled well down over his eyes, received
them in silence, as one who could af-

Wednesday morning Aunt Hannah
was up with the dawn, and by five
o'clock, when Elvira came hurrying
from school, every room in the little

her mantles with chrysanthemums,
she had filed every fireplace, and even
the kitchen sink, with asparagus
boughs. Long sprays of asparagus hung
from every ceiling to attract any fly
that dared to venture in, and the white
and-gilt china and red bohemian glass
vases had I'll been carefully filed with
tight punches of many-colored flowers.
But the decorations were not confined

London, Jan. james Mckenzie Mac
Lean, member Of Parliament for the Car
din district, and proprietor of the Cardiff
Western Malls, has written an article or
that paper in which he says:
" Emperor William message to Paul
Kruger, President Of the south African
Republic, is as deadly and unprovoked an
insult as was ever offered 10 the head of a
great European power and to ii nation of
equal rank.
=" In the face OF these repeated insults
from foreign powers, the time has come
to use effective means Of retaliation than
protests conspicuous for prudence and
moderation
The temper Of the English people is
rising. The murmurs among Lord Sails
bury's friends in both houses of parlia-
ment are becoming louder and deeper
daily.
Emperor william in proclaiming the
ght OF the Transvaal to receive assist
ance from Germany, trampled upon inter
national law and violated the convention
